5a39cbaf69 Implement makectx(). The makectx() function is used by KDB to create
a PCB from a trapframe for purposes of unwinding the stack. The PCB
is used as the thread context and all but the thread that entered the
debugger has a valid PCB.
This function can also be used to create a context for the threads
running on the CPUs that have been stopped when the debugger got
entered. This however is not done at the time of this commit.

3e25ce2310 Cleanup <machine/cpu.h> by moving MD prototypes to <machine/md_var.h>
like we have on other platforms. Move savectx() to <machine/pcb.h>.
A lot of files got these MD prototypes through the indirect inclusion
of <machine/cpu.h> and now need to include <machine/md_var.h>. The
number of which is unexpectedly large...

osf1_misc.c especially is tricky because szsigcode is redefined in
one of the osf1 header files. Reordering of the include files was
needed.

linprocfs.c now needs an explicit extern declaration.

Tested with: LINT

af3f249f3a The a.out md_coredump stuff isn't referenced anywhere anymore, and
hasn't been filled in for ages..  Nuked.

0bbc882680 Overhaul the per-CPU support a bit:
- The MI portions of struct globaldata have been consolidated into a MI
  struct pcpu.  The MD per-CPU data are specified via a macro defined in
  machine/pcpu.h.  A macro was chosen over a struct mdpcpu so that the
  interface would be cleaner (PCPU_GET(my_md_field) vs.
  PCPU_GET(md.md_my_md_field)).
- All references to globaldata are changed to pcpu instead.  In a UP kernel,
  this data was stored as global variables which is where the original name
  came from.  In an SMP world this data is per-CPU and ideally private to each
  CPU outside of the context of debuggers.  This also included combining
  machine/globaldata.h and machine/globals.h into machine/pcpu.h.
- The pointer to the thread using the FPU on i386 was renamed from
  npxthread to fpcurthread to be identical with other architectures.
- Make the show pcpu ddb command MI with a MD callout to display MD
  fields.
- The globaldata_register() function was renamed to pcpu_init() and now
  init's MI fields of a struct pcpu in addition to registering it with
  the internal array and list.
- A pcpu_destroy() function was added to remove a struct pcpu from the
  internal array and list.

8c321ed95f - Add appropriate #ifndef/#define/#endif to protect against multiple
inclusions.
- Blow away all evidence of a static curpcb as curpcb is a per-CPU variable
  and this definition is now bogus.

5813dc03bd - Don't call clear_resched() in userret(), instead, clear the resched flag
in mi_switch() just before calling cpu_switch() so that the first switch
  after a resched request will satisfy the request.
- While I'm at it, move a few things into mi_switch() and out of
  cpu_switch(), specifically set the p_oncpu and p_lastcpu members of
  proc in mi_switch(), and handle the sched_lock state change across a
  context switch in mi_switch().
- Since cpu_switch() no longer handles the sched_lock state change, we
  have to setup an initial state for sched_lock in fork_exit() before we
  release it.

0384fff8c5 Major update to the way synchronization is done in the kernel. Highlights
include:

* Mutual exclusion is used instead of spl*().  See mutex(9).  (Note: The
  alpha port is still in transition and currently uses both.)

* Per-CPU idle processes.

* Interrupts are run in their own separate kernel threads and can be
  preempted (i386 only).

5b38fe900d Implement 'software completion' for floating point arithmetic. On the
alpha, operations involving non-finite numbers or denormalised numbers
or operations which should generate such numbers will cause an arithmetic
exception.  For programs which follow some strict code generation rules,
the kernel trap handler can then 'complete' the operation by emulating
the faulting instruction.

To use software completion, a program must be compiled with the arguments
'-mtrap-precision=i' and '-mfp-trap-mode=su' or '-mfp-trap-mode=sui'.
Programs compiled in this way can use non-finite and denormalised numbers
at the expense of slightly less efficient code generation of floating
point instructions.  Programs not compiled with these options will receive
a SIGFPE signal when non-finite or denormalised numbers are used or
generated.

74712ec974 Import NetBSD/Alpha headers needed to get the FreeBSD userland to compile
(and even run). These files don't necessarily make sense for a
FreeBSD/Alpha kernel build. That will come later and these files
will be changed accordingly.
