- Split struct ithd up into two pieces. struct intr_event holds the list
of interrupt handlers associated with interrupt sources.
struct intr_thread contains the data relative to an interrupt thread.
Currently we still provide a 1:1 relationship of events to threads
with the exception that events only have an associated thread if there
is at least one threaded interrupt handler attached to the event. This
means that on x86 we no longer have 4 bazillion interrupt threads with
no handlers. It also means that interrupt events with only INTR_FAST
handlers no longer have an associated thread either.
- Renamed struct intrhand to struct intr_handler to follow the struct
intr_foo naming convention. This did require renaming the powerpc
MD struct intr_handler to struct ppc_intr_handler.
- INTR_FAST no longer implies INTR_EXCL on all architectures except for
powerpc. This means that multiple INTR_FAST handlers can attach to the
same interrupt and that INTR_FAST and non-INTR_FAST handlers can attach
to the same interrupt. Sharing INTR_FAST handlers may not always be
desirable, but having sio(4) and uhci(4) fight over an IRQ isn't fun
either. Drivers can always still use INTR_EXCL to ask for an interrupt
exclusively. The way this sharing works is that when an interrupt
comes in, all the INTR_FAST handlers are executed first, and if any
threaded handlers exist, the interrupt thread is scheduled afterwards.
This type of layout also makes it possible to investigate using interrupt
filters ala OS X where the filter determines whether or not its companion
threaded handler should run.
- Aside from the INTR_FAST changes above, the impact on MD interrupt code
is mostly just 's/ithread/intr_event/'.
- A new MI ddb command 'show intrs' walks the list of interrupt events
dumping their state. It also has a '/v' verbose switch which dumps
info about all of the handlers attached to each event.
- We currently don't destroy an interrupt thread when the last threaded
handler is removed because it would suck for things like ppbus(8)'s
braindead behavior. The code is present, though, it is just under
#if 0 for now.
- Move the code to actually execute the threaded handlers for an interrrupt
event into a separate function so that ithread_loop() becomes more
readable. Previously this code was all in the middle of ithread_loop()
and indented halfway across the screen.
- Made struct intr_thread private to kern_intr.c and replaced td_ithd
with a thread private flag TDP_ITHREAD.
- In statclock, check curthread against idlethread directly rather than

which serial device to use in that case respectively to not rely on
the OFW names of the input/output and stdin/stdout devices. Instead
check whether input and output refers to the same device and is of
type serial (uart(4) was already doing this) and for the fallback
to a serial console in case a keyboard is the selected input device
but unplugged do the same for stdin and stdout in case the input
device is nonexistent (PS/2 and USB keyboards) or has a 'keyboard'
property (RS232 keyboards). Additionally also check whether the OFW
did a fallback to a serial console in the same way in case the
output device is nonexistent. While at it save on some variables

This fixes selecting a serial console and the appropriate device
when using a device path for the 'input-device' and 'output-device'
OFW environment variables instead of an alias for the serial device
to use or when using a screen alias that additionally denotes a
video mode (like e.g. 'screen:r1024x768x60') but no keyboard is
plugged in (amongst others). It also makes the code select a serial
console in case the OFW did the same due to a misconfiguration like
both 'input-device' and 'output-device' set to 'keyboard' or to a
nonexisting device (whether the OFW does a fallback to a serial
console in case of a misconfiguration or one ends up with just no
console at all highly depends on the OBP version however).

UARTs used to connect keyboards and not also PS/2 keyboards and only
return their package handle in case the keyboard is the preferred one
according to the OFW but otherwise still regardless of whether the
keyboard is used for stdin or not. This is simply achieved by looking
at the 'keyboard' alias and returning the corresponding package handle
in case it refers to a SCC/UART. This is change is done in order to
give the keyboard which the OFW or the user selected in OFW on boards
that support additional types of keyboards besides the RS232 ones also
preference in FreeBSD. It will be also used to determine on Sun AXi and
Sun AXmp boards whether a PS/2 or a RS232 is to be used as these are
sort of mutual exclusive there (see upcoming commit to uart_bus_ebus.c).
Note that Tatung AXi boards have the same issue but the former code
happened to already give the PS/2 keyboard preference by not identifying
the respective UART as keyboard system device there because the PS/2
keyboard node precedes the keyboard UART one in the OFW device tree of
these boards (which isn't the case for the Sun AXi).

The core console code checks this field when a console is added and
emits a warning if it's empty. In practice the warning is harmless for
uart(4), because the cn_name is filled in as soon as the device name is
known; which is when the device is enumerated.
To avoid the warning, to avoid possible complications caused by emitting
the warning without there (possibly) being a console selected yet and to
avoid complications when the UART isn't found during bus enumeration, we
just preset the cn_name field here to the name of the driver.
fact that access to RR0 does not need a prior write to the register
index because the index always reverts to 0 after the indexed register
has been accessed.
Typically when a RR or WR is to accessed, one programs the index (which
is a write to the control register), followed by a read or write to the
actual indexed register (a read pr write to the same control register).
When this non-atomic sequence is interrupted after having written the
index and low-level console I/O is done in that situation, the write to
program the index will actually write to the indexed register and nuke
state. This almost always yields a wedge.
By not programming the index register and instead just reading from RR0,
the worst case scenario is non-fatal. For if we don't actually read from
RR0 but some other register we get an invalid status, which may lead us
to conclude that the transit data register is empty when it's not or that
the receive data register contains data when it doesn't. Hence, we may
lose an output character or get a sporadic input character, but given
the situation this is a non-issue.
Full serialization is not possible due to the fact that this code needs
to work from DDB and before mutex initialization has happened.

this is true for RS232 keyboards (the node of the SCC and UART
respectively which controls the keyboard doesn't disappear when no
keyboard is plugged in) this assumption breaks for USB keyboards.
It's most likely also not true for PS/2 keyboards but OFW doesn't

engineering the pending interrupt sources from the current
state of the controller. For channel A we can always read the
interrupt pending register (RR3). For channel B we can read
the interrupt vector register (RR2) because it contains the
modified vector and thus includes the interrupt source.
Since we currently need puc(4) for the Z8530, we know that
the interrupt handler for both channels will be called and
thus that RR3 will always be read at least once, even if ch A
has no pending interrupt.
NOTE: The modified interrupt vector has no value that represent
a lack of pending interrupt for channel B. That is, the
value read when no interrupts are pending is the same as the
value for the special receive condition. Fortunately, we don't
actually have to depend on that interrupt source. This does
mean that we need to properly handle the overflow condition,
when we read received character from the chip.

- The claim in the commit log of rev. 1.11 of dev/uart/uart_cpu_sparc64.c
etc. that UARTs are the only relevant ISA devices on sparc64 turned out
to be false. While there are sparc64 models where UARTs are the only
devices on the ISA bus there are in fact also low-cost models where all
devices traditionally found on the EBus are hooked up to the ISA bus.
There are also models that use a mix between EBus and ISA devices with
things like an AT keyboard controller and other rather interesting
devices that we might want to support in the futute hook up to the ISA
bus.
In order to not need to add sparc64 specific device_identify methods to
all of the respective ISA drivers and also not add OFW specific code to
the common ISA code make the sparc64 ISA bus code fake up PnP devices so
most ISA drivers probe their devices without further changes.
Unfortunately Sun doesn't adhere to the ISA bindings defined in IEEE
1275-1994 for the properties of most of the ISA devices which would
allow to obtain the vendor and logical IDs from their properties. So we
we just use a simple table which maps the name properties to PnP IDs.
This could be done in a more sophisticated way but I courrently don't
see the need for this. [1]
- Add the children with fully mapped and specified resources (in the OFW
sense) similar to what is done in the EBus code for the IRQ resources
of the children as adjusting the resources and the resource list entries
respectively in isa_alloc_resource() as done perviously causes trouble
with drivers which use rman_get_start(), pass-through or allocate and
release resources multiple times, etc.
Adjusting the resources might be better off in a bus_activate_resource
method but the common ISA code currently doesn't allow for an
isa_activate_resource(). [2]
With this change:
- ppbus(4) and lpt(4) attach and work (modulo ECP mode, which requires
real ISADMA code but it currently only consists of stubs on sparc64).
- atkbdc(4) and atkbdc(4) attach, no further testing done.
- fdc(4) itself attaches but causes a hang while attaching fd0 also
when is DMA disabled, further work in fdc(4) is required here as e.g.
fd0 uses the address of fd1 on sparc64 (not sure if sparc64 supports
more than one floppy drive at all).
All of these drivers previously caused panics in the sparc64 ISA code.

declare one global variable which isn't used outside of isa.c static.

current baudrate setting. Use this ioctl() when we don't know the
baudrate of the sysdev (as represented by a 0 value). When the
ioctl() fails, e.g. when the backend hasn't implemented it or the
hardware doesn't provide the means to determine its current baudrate
setting, we invalidate the baudrate setting by setting it to -1.
None of the backends currently implement the new ioctl().
A baudrate we consider insane is silently replaced with 0. When the
baudrate is 0, we will not try to program the hardware. Instead we
leave the communication speed unaltered, maximizing the chance to
have a working console. Obviously this means we allow specifying a
0 baudrate for exactly that purpose.

certain platform. Expect for sparc64 these are only stubs right now. [1]
- For sparc64, add code to its uart_cpu_identify() for registering the on-
board ISA UARTs and their resources based on information obtained from
Open Firmware.
It would be better if this would be done in the OFW ISA code. However, due
to the common FreeBSD ISA code and PNP-IDs not always being present in the
properties of the ISA nodes there seems to be no good way to implement that.
Therefore special casing UARTs as the sole really relevant ISA devices on

to support properly but which also isn't used in FreeBSD at present.
This ofw_bus kobj-interface allows to replace the various (ebus_get_node(),
ofw_pci_get_node(), etc.) and partially inconsistent (central_get_type()

This in turn allows to simplify and remove code-duplication in drivers for
devices that can hang off of more than one OFW supported bus.
- Convert the sparc64 Central, EBus, FHC, PCI and SBus bus drivers and the
drivers for their children to use the ofw_bus kobj-interface. The IVAR-
interfaces of the Central, EBus and FHC are entirely replaced by this. The
PCI bus driver used its own kobj-interface and now also uses the ofw_bus
one. The IVARs special to the SBus, e.g. for retrieving the burst size,
remain.
Beware: this causes an ABI-breakage for modules of drivers which used the
IVAR-interfaces, i.e. esp(4), hme(4), isp(4) and uart(4), which need to be
recompiled.
The style-inconsistencies introduced in some of the bus drivers will be
fixed by tmm@ in a generic clean-up of the respective drivers later (he
requested to add the changes in the "new" style).
- Convert the powerpc MacIO bus driver and the drivers for its children to
use the ofw_bus kobj-interface. This invloves removing the IVARs related
to the "reg" property which were unused and a leftover from the NetBSD
origini of the code. There's no ABI-breakage caused by this because none
of these driver are currently built as modules.
There are other powerpc bus drivers which can be converted to the ofw_bus
kobj-interface, e.g. the PCI bus driver, which should be done together
with converting powerpc to use the OFW PCI code from sparc64.

which could lead to an interrupt storm in the shared interrupt case.
To prevent this, change ns8250_bus_probe() to use the overflow bit in
the line status register instead of the RX ready bit in the interrupt
identification register to detect whether the FIFO has filled up.
This allows us to clear all bits in the interrupt enable register during
the probe, which should prevent interrupts reliably.
Additionally, the detected FIFO size may be a bit more accurate, because
the overflow bit is only set when the FIFO did actually fill up, while
interrupts would trigger a bit early.

Consequently, when there's no data to be transmitted the condition
is not cleared and uart_intr() is stuck in an infinite loop trying
to clear the UART_IPEND_TXIDLE status.
The z8530_bus_ipend() function is changed to return idle only once
after having sent any data.
The root cause for this problem is that we cannot use the interrupt
status bits of the SCC itself. The register that holds the interrupt
status can only be accessed by channel A and holds the status for
both channels. Using the interrupt status register would complicate
the driver because we need to synchronize access to the SCC between
the channels.

the use of hints completely and take precedence over hints on alpha,
amd64 and i386. On sparc64 these variables are not yet recognised.
The reasons for introducing these variables are:
1. Hints have side-effects. They reserve the unit number for use by
isa or acpi devices and therefore cannot be used to select a pci
device. Also, the use of a unit number to select a device prior
to bus enumeration is nonsense. The new variables have no side-
effects and are not based on unit numbers.
2. Hints don't have the expression power to allow the sysadmin to
select UARTs that are not legacy PC devices and need the support
of compile-time constants to give the sysadmin some level of
flexibility.

holds the channel within a device, or 0 otherwise. The chan field is
initialized both by the system device probing (i.e. a system console)
or it is passed down to uart_bus_probe() by any of the bus front-ends.
As such, it impacts all platforms and bus drivers and makes it a rather
large commit.
Remove the use of iobase in uart_cpu_eqres() for pc98. It is expected
that platforms have the capability to compare tag and handle pairs for
equality; as to determine whether two pairs access the same device or
not. The use of iobase for pc98 makes it impossible to formalize this
and turn it into a real newbus function later. This commit reverts
uart_cpu_eqres() for pc98 to an unimplemented function. It has to be
reimplemented using only the tag and handle fields in struct uart_bas.
Rewrite the SAB82532 and Z8530 drivers to use the chan field in struct
uart_bas. Remove the IS_CHANNEL_A and IS_CHANNEL_B macros. We don't
need to abstract anything anymore.

an UART interface could get stuck when a new interrupt condition
arose while servicing a previous interrupt. Since an interrupt was
already pending, no new interrupt would be triggered.
Avoid infinite recursion by flushing the Rx FIFO and marking an
overrun condition when we could not move the data from the Rx
FIFO to the receive buffer in toto. Failure to flush the Rx FIFO
would leave the Rx ready condition pending.
Note that the SAB 82532 already did this due to the nature of the
chip.
precisely where locking would be needed before adding it, but it
seems uart(4) draws slightly too much attention to have it without
locking for too long.
The lock added is a spinlock that protects access to the underlying
hardware. As a first and obvious stab at this, each method of the
hardware interface grabs the lock. Roughly speaking this serializes
the methods. Exceptions are the probe, attach and detach methods.
We simply use the detected FIFO size to determine whether we have
a post 16550 UART or not. The support lacks proper serialization of
hardware access for now.
the "compatible" property too in the ns8250 case. This gets the serial
console to work on Blade 100s, where the device name is just "serial".

Second (PPS) timing interface. The support is non-optional and by
default uses the DCD line signal as the pulse input. A compile-time
option (UART_PPS_ON_CTS) can be used to have uart(4) use the CTS line
signal.
Include <sys/timepps.h> in uart_bus.h to avoid having to add the
inclusion of that header in all source files.

is not a size of 1. Since we already know there is a FIFO, we can
safely assume that it is at least 16 bytes. Note that all this is
mostly academic anyway. We don't use the size of the Rx FIFO
currently. If we add support for hardware flow control, we only
care about Rx FIFO sizes larger than 16.
from the SAB82532 and the Z8530 hardware drivers by introducing
uart_cpu_busaddr(). The assumption is not true on pc98 where
bus_space_handle_t is a pointer to a structure.
The uart_cpu_busaddr() function will return the bus address
corresponding the tag and handle given to it by the BAS.
WARNING: the intend of the function is STRICTLY to allow hardware
drivers to determine which logical channel they control and is NOT
to be used for actual I/O. It is therefore EXPLICITLY allowed that
uart_cpu_busaddr() returns only the lower 8 bits of the address
and garbage in all other bits. No mistakes...

Real code to follow, once I get past some boot issues on my pc98 boxes
with recent current.
It improves on sio(4) in the following areas:
o Fully newbusified to allow for memory mapped I/O. This is a must
for ia64 and sparc64,
o Machine dependent code to take full advantage of machine and firm-
ware specific ways to define serial consoles and/or debug ports.
o Hardware abstraction layer to allow the driver to be used with
various UARTs, such as the well-known ns8250 family of UARTs, the
Siemens sab82532 or the Zilog Z8530. This is especially important
for pc98 and sparc64 where it's common to have different UARTs,
o The notion of system devices to unkludge low-level consoles and
remote gdb ports and provides the mechanics necessary to support
the keyboard on sparc64 (which is UART based).
o The notion of a kernel interface so that a UART can be tied to
something other than the well-known TTY interface. This is needed
on sparc64 to present the user with a device and ioctl handling
suitable for a keyboard, but also allows us to cleanly hide an
UART when used as a debug port.
Following is a list of features and bugs/flaws specific to the ns8250
family of UARTs as compared to their support in sio(4):
o The uart(4) driver determines the FIFO size and automaticly takes
advantages of larger FIFOs and/or additional features. Note that
since I don't have sufficient access to 16[679]5x UARTs, hardware
flow control has not been enabled. This is almost trivial to do,
provided one can test. The downside of this is that broken UARTs
are more likely to not work correctly with uart(4). The need for
tunables or knobs may be large enough to warrant their creation.
o The uart(4) driver does not share the same bumpy history as sio(4)
and will therefore not provide the necessary hooks, tweaks, quirks
or work-arounds to deal with once common hardware. To that extend,
uart(4) supports a subset of the UARTs that sio(4) supports. The
question before us is whether the subset is sufficient for current
hardware.
o There is no support for multiport UARTs in uart(4). The decision
behind this is that uart(4) deals with one EIA RS232-C interface.
Packaging of multiple interfaces in a single chip or on a single
expansion board is beyond the scope of uart(4) and is now mostly
left for puc(4) to deal with. Lack of hardware made it impossible
to actually implement such a dependency other than is present for
the dual channel SAB82532 and Z8350 SCCs.
The current list of missing features is:
o No configuration capabilities. A set of tunables and sysctls is
being worked out. There are likely not going to be any or much
compile-time knobs. Such configuration does not fit well with
current hardware.
o No support for the PPS API. This is partly dependent on the
ability to configure uart(4) and partly dependent on having
sufficient information to implement it properly.
As usual, the manpage is present but lacks the attention the
software has gotten.
