i386 platform boots, it is no longer ISA-centric, and is fully dynamic.
Most old drivers compile and run without modification via 'compatability
shims' to enable a smoother transition. eisa, isapnp and pccard* are
not yet using the new resource manager. Once fully converted, all drivers
will be loadable, including PCI and ISA.
(Some other changes appear to have snuck in, including a port of Soren's
ATA driver to the Alpha. Soren, back this out if you need to.)
This is a checkpoint of work-in-progress, but is quite functional.
The bulk of the work was done over the last few years by Doug Rabson and
Garrett Wollman.

actually faster (more than 20% faster for zeroing 1 MB at boot time).
This fixes pessimized copying and zeroing on K6's and perhaps on other
CPUs that are misclassified as i586's.
in <machine/cpu.h>. Moved the declarations to <machine/cputypes.h>.
Fixed style bugs in the moved code. Fixed everything that depended on
the nested include. Don't include <machine/cpu.h> (in the changed files)
unless something in it is used directly.
Work done by BSDI, Jonathan Lemon <jlemon@americantv.com>,
Mike Smith <msmith@gsoft.com.au>, Sean Eric Fagan <sef@kithrup.com>,
and probably alot of others.

This eliminates a lot of #ifdef SMP type code. Things like _curproc reside
in a data page that is unique on each cpu, eliminating the expensive macros
like: #define curproc (SMPcurproc[cpunumber()])
There are some unresolved bootstrap and address space sharing issues at
present, but Steve is waiting on this for other work. There is still some
strictly temporary code present that isn't exactly pretty.
This is part of a larger change that has run into some bumps, this part is
standalone so it should be safe. The temporary code goes away when the
full idle cpu support is finished.

There are various options documented in i386/conf/LINT, there is more to
come over the next few days.
The kernel should run pretty much "as before" without the options to
activate SMP mode.
There are a handful of known "loose ends" that need to be fixed, but
have been put off since the SMP kernel is in a moderately good condition
at the moment.
This commit is the result of the tinkering and testing over the last 14
months by many people. A special thanks to Steve Passe for implementing
the APIC code!
have successfully built, booted, and run a number of different ELF
kernel configurations, including GENERIC. LINT also builds and
links cleanly, though I have not tried to boot it.
The impact on developers is virtually nil, except for two things.
All linker sets that might possibly be present in the kernel must be
listed in "sys/i386/i386/setdefs.h". And all C symbols that are
also referenced from assembly language code must be listed in
"sys/i386/include/asnames.h". It so happens that failure to do
these things will have no impact on the a.out kernel. But it will
break the build of the ELF kernel.
The ELF bootloader works, but it is not ready to commit quite yet.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
is still broken - it doesn't restore the floating point state.
2.2-BETA users should disable it using npx0 flags 0x04 the same as
2.2-ALPHA users should have.
user supplies a bad address, because they push a lot of stuff that the
fault handler doesn't know about onto the stack. This has been broken
for more than half a year despite being tested for almost half a year
in -current.
negative-logic flags (flags 0x01 and 0x02 for npx0, defaulting to unset = on).
This changes the default from off to on. The options have been in current
for several months with no problems reported.
Added a boot-time negative-logic flag for the old I5886_FAST_BCOPY option
which went away too soon (flag 0x04 for npx0, defaulting to unset = on).
Added a boot-time way to set the memory size (iosiz in config, iosize in
userconfig for npx0).
LINT:
Removed old options. Documented npx0's flags and iosiz.
options.i386:
Removed old options.
identcpu.c:
Don't set the function pointers here. Setting them has to be delayed
until after userconfig has had a chance to disable them and until after
a good npx0 has been detected.
machdep.c:
Use npx0's iosize instead of MAXMEM if it is nonzero.
support.s:
Added vectors and glue code for copyin() and copyout().
Fixed ifdefs for i586_bzero().
Added ifdefs for i586_bcopy().
npx.c:
Set the function pointers here.
Clear hw_float when an npx exists but is too broken to use.
Restored style from a year or three ago in npxattach().
was overlapping with another file, and making some undesirable behavior a
little worse - it's triggering a bug in config that appears to have been
there for some time (before the options files, anyway.)
overflows.
It sure would be nice if there was an unmapped page between the PCB and
the stack (and that the size of the stack was configurable!). With the
way things are now, the PCB will get clobbered before the double fault
handler gets control, making somewhat of a mess of things. Despite this,
it is still fairly easy to poke around in the overflowed stack to figure
out the cause.
For those where it was easy, drivers were also fixed to call
dev_attach() during probe rather than attach (in keeping with the
new design articulated in a mail message five months ago). For
a few that were really easy, correct state tracking was added as well.
The `fd' driver was fixed to correctly fill in the description.
The CPU identify code was fixed to attach a `cpu' device. The code
was also massively reordered to fill in cpu_model with somethingremotely
resembling what identifycpu() prints out. A few bytes saved by using
%b to format the features list rather than lots of ifs.
messages like this:
wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 14 on isa
wdc0: unit 0 (wd0): <ST506>
wd0: size unknown, using BIOS values: 615 cyl, 4 head, 17 sec, bytes/sec 512
npx0 at 0xf0-0xff irq 13 on motherboard
npx0: changing root device to wd0a
^^^^^^
The spurious 'npx0: ' pops up if you have a 386 with a 387 FPU.
Remove bogus input operands for fnsave(), fnstcw() and fnstsw().
Change all fwait's to fnop's. This might help avoid hardware bugs.
Wait after fninit with an fnop. This should be safer now.
Fix some spelling and formatting errors.
Use natural sizes for control and status words (u_short, promotes to int).
Don't clobber the SWI_CLOCK_MASK bits in npx0_imask when using IRQ13.
Set the devconf state correctly (always busy, if configured). Improve
code for npx_registerdev() a little (gcc can't keep id->id_unit in a
register for some reason). Don't register a nonexistent npx device.
Print a useful message in npxattach() again (delete references to errors
and not the whole message). Don't print "387 emulator" if there is no
emulator in the kernel.
Use %p for pointers in error messages.
Don't clobber the FPU state when there is an FPU exception. Just clear
the exception flags (after saving the flags as before). This allows
debuggers and SIGFPE handlers to look at the full exception state.
SIGFPE handlers should normally return via longjmp(), which restores a
good FPU state (as before). Returning from a SIGFPE handler may leave
the FPU in the wrong state (as before).
Clear the busy latch _after_ clearing the exception flags so that there
is less chance of getting a bogus h/w interrupt for a control operation.
Clear the saved exception status word when the next FPU instruction is
excuted so that it doesn't stick around until the next exception.
Clear the busy latch after fnsave() in npxsave() in case it was set when
npxsave() was called.
