aligned. If I recall correctly, this is to ensure apic_imen can be
accessed in a single bus cycle. Also, use TEXT_ALIGN rather than a
.align 2 (which means 2 byte align on ELF and 4 byte align on a.out)
and use this when masking/unmasking interrupts.
Maintain a mapping from (iopaic number, int pin) tuple to irq number,
and use this when configuring devices and programming the ioapics.
Previous code assumed that irq number was equal to int pin number, and
that the ioapic number was 0.
Don't let an AP enter _cpu_switch before all local apics are initialized.
interrupts are masked, and EOI is sent iff the corresponding ISR bit
is set in the local apic. If the CPU cannot obtain the interrupt
service lock (currently the global kernel lock) the interrupt is
forwarded to the CPU holding that lock.
Clock interrupts now have higher priority than other slow interrupts.
- A nonprofiling version of s_lock (called s_lock_np) is used
by mcount.
- When profiling is active, more registers are clobbered in
seemingly simple assembly routines. This means that some
callers needed to save/restore extra registers.
- The stack pointer must have space for a 'fake' return address
in idle, to avoid stack underflow.
region protected by the simplelock 'cpl_lock'.
Notes:
- this code is currently controlled on a section by section basis with
defines in machine/param.h. All sections are currently enabled.
- this code is not as clean as I would like, but that can wait till later.
- the "giant lock" still surrounds most instances of this "cpl region".
I still have to do the code that arbitrates setting cpl between the
top and bottom halves of the kernel.
- the possibility of deadlock exists, I am committing the code at this
point so as to exercise it and detect any such cases B4 the "giant lock"
is removed.
Made NEW_STRATEGY default.
Removed misc. old cruft.
Centralized simple locks into mp_machdep.c
Centralized simple lock macros into param.h
More cleanup in the direction of making splxx()/cpl MP-safe.
Several new fine-grained locks.
New FAST_INTR() methods:
- separate simplelock for FAST_INTR, no more giant lock.
- FAST_INTR()s no longer checks ipending on way out of ISR.
sio made MP-safe (I hope).
we use lazy masking INTREN()/INTRDIS() might be called with INTs enabled.
This means another higher prio INT to the same cpu could attempt to
re-enter the critical region, but would spin waiting for the lock. Since
it is the owner, it would deadlock.
- s_lock_init()
- s_lock()
- s_lock_try()
- s_unlock()
Created lock for IO APIC and apic_imen (SMP version of imen)
- imen_lock
Code to use imen_lock for access from apic_ipl.s and apic_vector.s.
Moved this code *outside* of mp_lock.
It seems to work!!!
- vector.s <- stub called by i386/exception.s
- icu_vector.s <- UP
- apic_vector.s <- SMP
Split icu.s into UP and SMP specific files:
- ipl.s <- stub called by i386/exception.s (formerly icu.s)
- icu_ipl.s <- UP
- apic_ipl.s <- SMP
This was done in preparation for massive changes to the SMP INTerrupt
mechanisms. More fine tuning, such as merging ipl.s into exception.s,
may be appropriate.
