setting. Make va_copy be an alias if __ISO_C_VISIBLE >= 1999.
Why? more than a few ports have an autoconf that looks for __va_copy
because it is available on glibc. It is critical that we use it if
at all possible on amd64. It generally isn't a problem for i386 and its
ilk because autoconf driven code tends to fall back to an assignment.
implement i386 compat numbers where it makes sense. This would save a
syscall translation layer. Yes, this breaks the abi slightly again, but
fortunately its just a recompile rather than tweaking the source. I will
be fixing the libc stubs while I'm here.
sigreturn() ABI and the signal context on the stack.
Make the trapframe (and its shadows in the ucontext and sigframe etc)
8 bytes larger in order to preserve 16 byte stack alignment for the
following C code calls. I could have done some padding after the
trapframe was saved, but some of the C code still expects an argument of
'struct trapframe'. Anyway, this gives me a spare field that can be used
to store things like 'partial trapframe' status or something else in
the future.
The runtime impact is fairly small, *except* for threaded apps and things
that decode contexts and the signal stack (eg: cvsup binary). Signal
delivery isn't too badly affected because the kernel generates the
sigframe that sigreturn uses after the handler has been called.
The size of mcontext_t and struct sigframe hasn't changed. Only
the last few fields (sc_eip etc) got moved a little and I eliminated
a spare field. mc_len/sc_len did change location though so the
sanity checks there will still trap it.
avoid problems with some Pentium 4 cpus and some older PPro/Pentium2
cpus. There are several problems, some documented in Intel errata.
This patch:
1) moves the kernel to the second page in the PSE case. There is an
errata that says that you Must Not point a 4MB page at physical
address zero on older cpus. We avoided bugs here due to sheer luck.
2) sets up PSE page tables right from the start in locore, rather than
trying to switch from 4K to 4M (or 2M) pages part way through the boot
sequence at the same time that we're messing with PG_G.
For some reason, the pmap work over the last 18 months seems to tickle
the problems, and the PAE infrastructure changes disturb the cpu
bugs even more.
A couple of people have reported a problem with APM bios calls during
boot. I'll work with people to get this resolved.

systems where the data/stack/etc limits are too big for a 32 bit process.
Move the 5 or so identical instances of ELF_RTLD_ADDR() into imgact_elf.c.
Supply an ia32_fixlimits function. Export the clip/default values to
sysctl under the compat.ia32 heirarchy.
Have mmap(0, ...) respect the current p->p_limits[RLIMIT_DATA].rlim_max
value rather than the sysctl tweakable variable. This allows mmap to
place mappings at sensible locations when limits have been reduced.
Have the imgact_elf.c ld-elf.so.1 placement algorithm use the same
method as mmap(0, ...) now does.
Note that we cannot remove all references to the sysctl tweakable
maxdsiz etc variables because /etc/login.conf specifies a datasize
of 'unlimited'. And that causes exec etc to fail since it can no
longer find space to mmap things.
32 bit binary stuff. 32 bit binaries do not like it much when the kernel
tries hard to put things above the 8GB mark.
I have a work-in-progress to fix this properly, but I didn't want to burn
anybody with this yet.
initialize a TSC timecounter until we know if it is broke or not.
XXX I think there is a bug in the i386 code here. init_TSC_tc() comes
after:
if (statclock_disable)
return;
ie: if you turn off the statclock interrupt, you dont get the TSC either.
prototypes of cpu_halt(), cpu_reset() and swi_vm() from md_var.h to
cpu.h. This affects db_command.c and kern_shutdown.c.
ia64: move all MD prototypes from cpu.h to md_var.h. This affects
madt.c, interrupt.c and mp_machdep.c. Remove is_physical_memory().
It's not used (vm_machdep.c).
alpha: the MD prototypes have been left in cpu.h with a comment
that they should be there. Moving them is left for later. It was
expected that the impact would be significant enough to be done in
a seperate commit.
powerpc: MD prototypes left in cpu.h. Comment added.

AMD64, gcc (and the ABI) expects the x87 unit to be running in 80/64
mode (not 64/53) so that it can use it for 'long double' operations. It
takes the expected precision differences into account when generating
code.

FP code, the fpsetround() etc mode had better be the same.
There are hooks to enable these inlines to be instantiated inside libc
for non-gcc or C++ callers. (g++ doesn't like the inlines that tried
to extract an integer and convert it to an enum).
on the implied sign extension. The single unified VADDR() macro was
not able to avoid sign extending the VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS/USRSTACK values.
Be explicit about UVADDR() (positive address space) and KVADDR()

spectacularly.
Increase user VM space from 1/2TB (512GB) to 128TB.
Add two new arguments to bus_dma_tag_create(): lockfunc and lockfuncarg.
Lockfunc allows a driver to provide a function for managing its locking
semantics while using busdma. At the moment, this is used for the
asynchronous busdma_swi and callback mechanism. Two lockfunc implementations
are provided: busdma_lock_mutex() performs standard mutex operations on the
mutex that is specified from lockfuncarg. dftl_lock() is a panic
implementation and is defaulted to when NULL, NULL are passed to
bus_dma_tag_create(). The only time that NULL, NULL should ever be used is
when the driver ensures that bus_dmamap_load() will not be deferred.
Drivers that do not provide their own locking can pass
busdma_lock_mutex,&Giant args in order to preserve the former behaviour.
sparc64 and powerpc do not provide real busdma_swi functions, so this is
largely a noop on those platforms. The busdma_swi on is64 is not properly
locked yet, so warnings will be emitted on this platform when busdma
callback deferrals happen.
If anyone gets panics or warnings from dflt_lock() being called, please
let me know right away.

to the machine-independent parts of the VM. At the same time, this
introduces vm object locking for the non-i386 platforms.
Two details:
1. KSTACK_GUARD has been removed in favor of KSTACK_GUARD_PAGES. The
different machine-dependent implementations used various combinations
of KSTACK_GUARD and KSTACK_GUARD_PAGES. To disable guard page, set
KSTACK_GUARD_PAGES to 0.
2. Remove the (unnecessary) clearing of PG_ZERO in vm_thread_new. In
5.x, (but not 4.x,) PG_ZERO can only be set if VM_ALLOC_ZERO is passed
to vm_page_alloc() or vm_page_grab().
