Changed MACHINE to MACHINE_ARCH with the expectation that pc98 will
use elf the same as i386.
Nuked tahoe and vax 'cause the files they reference aren't in the
tree. If you want vax goto NetBSD. If you want tahoe... tough.
starting with hashes have a sub-optimal impact. This change adds
/* */ around the block comment in the header of each file to make
them friendly to cpp. Also added an Id keyword cause I like to
see revision numbers in source.
Changes to support building with _POSIX_SOURCE set to 199309L:
1. Add sys/_posix.h to handle those preprocessor defs that POSIX
says have effects when defined before including any header files;
2. Change POSIX4_VISIBLE back to _POSIX4_VISIBLE
3. Add _POSIX4_VISIBLE_HISTORICALLY for pre-existing BSD features now
defined in POSIX. These show up when:
_POSIX_SOURCE and _POSIX_C_SOURCE are not set or
_POSIX_C_SOURCE is set >= 199309L
and vanish when:
_POSIX_SOURCE is set or _POSIX_C_SOURCE is < 199309L.
4. Explain these in man 9 posix4;
5. Include _posix.h and conditionalize on new feature test.
slice number passed in by the bootblocks. This means the kernel will
not use the compatability slice to obtain the root filesystem when
booting from a sliced disk.
Use the extraction macros from reboot.h rather than stating them in full
again.
something that might refer to the compatability slice rather than the
correct slice entry, try all the possible slice entries first.
This is a compatability hack to deal with the case where the kernel has
correctly mounted the root filesystem out of its slice, but the user
has not updated their /etc/fstab file to reflect this. A diagnostic
is emitted if the mount succeeds, indicating that the file should be
updated.
This is a prelude to fixing the kernel to behave as alluded to above.

1) When freeing pages, it is a good idea to protect them off.
(This is probably gratuitious, but good form.)
2) Allow collapsing pages in the backing object that are
PQ_CACHE. This will improve memory utilization.
3) Correct the collapse code so that pages that were on the
cache queue are moved to the inactive queue. This is
done when pages are marked dirty (so that those pages
will be properly paged out instead of freed), so that
cached pages will not be paradoxically marked dirty.
a.out gas and the binutils gas (elf or a.out) with a single compiler.
This uses other infrastructure not yet committed, in order to support
both a.out and elf it needs to be able to get to both a.out and elf
gas, ld, libs, crt* etc. So for now, the support is pretty much dormant.
The new freebsd.h file is based on the old freebsd-elf.h file (which has a
long lineage, right back through linux and svr4 files). The change is
pretty dramatic from a gcc internals standpoint as it overrides a lot of
definitions in order to generate different output based on target mode.
There is potential for screw-ups, so please be on the lookout - gcc's
configuration mechanism wasn't really meant for this kind of thing.
It's believed to compile world etc just fine under both a.out and elf, can
handle global constructors and destructors, handles the differences in
a.out and elf stabs, and what sections things like exceptions go in.
The initial idea came from i386/osfrose.h which is a dual rose/elf format
target. These two are not as diverse as a.out and elf it would seem.
The cc front-end uses external configuration to determine default object
format (still being thrashed out, so read the source if you want to see
it so far), and has a '-aout' and '-elf' override command line switch.
There are some other internal switches that can be accessed, namely -maout,
-mno-aout, -munderscores and -mnounderscores. The underscore and local
symbol prefixing rules are controllable seperately to the output format.
(ie: it's possible to generate a.out without the _ prefixes on symbols and
also to generate elf with the _ prefixes. This isn't quite optimal, but
does seem to work pretty well, except the linkers don't always recognise
the local symbols without their normal names)
The default format is a.out (still), nobody should see any major changes.
With both elf and a.out tools and libraries installed:
[1:26pm]/tmp-223> cc -elf -o hello hello.c
peter@beast[1:27pm]/tmp-224> file hello
hello: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (FreeBSD), dynamically linked, not stripped

[1:27pm]/tmp-227> file hello

Since my co-conspirators put a lot of effort into this too, I'll add them

has been some bitrot and incorrect assumptions in the vfs_bio code. These
problems have manifest themselves worse on NFS type filesystems, but can
still affect local filesystems under certain circumstances. Most of
the problems have involved mmap consistancy, and as a side-effect broke
the vfs.ioopt code. This code might have been committed seperately, but
almost everything is interrelated.
1) Allow (pmap_object_init_pt) prefaulting of buffer-busy pages that
are fully valid.
2) Rather than deactivating erroneously read initial (header) pages in
kern_exec, we now free them.
3) Fix the rundown of non-VMIO buffers that are in an inconsistent
(missing vp) state.
4) Fix the disassociation of pages from buffers in brelse. The previous
code had rotted and was faulty in a couple of important circumstances.
5) Remove a gratuitious buffer wakeup in vfs_vmio_release.
6) Remove a crufty and currently unused cluster mechanism for VBLK
files in vfs_bio_awrite. When the code is functional, I'll add back
a cleaner version.
7) The page busy count wakeups assocated with the buffer cache usage were
incorrectly cleaned up in a previous commit by me. Revert to the
original, correct version, but with a cleaner implementation.
8) The cluster read code now tries to keep data associated with buffers
more aggressively (without breaking the heuristics) when it is presumed
that the read data (buffers) will be soon needed.
9) Change to filesystem lockmgr locks so that they use LK_NOPAUSE. The
delay loop waiting is not useful for filesystem locks, due to the
length of the time intervals.
10) Correct and clean-up spec_getpages.
11) Implement a fully functional nfs_getpages, nfs_putpages.
12) Fix nfs_write so that modifications are coherent with the NFS data on
the server disk (at least as well as NFS seems to allow.)
13) Properly support MS_INVALIDATE on NFS.
14) Properly pass down MS_INVALIDATE to lower levels of the VM code from
vm_map_clean.
15) Better support the notion of pages being busy but valid, so that
fewer in-transit waits occur. (use p->busy more for pageouts instead
of PG_BUSY.) Since the page is fully valid, it is still usable for
reads.
16) It is possible (in error) for cached pages to be busy. Make the
page allocation code handle that case correctly. (It should probably
be a printf or panic, but I want the system to handle coding errors
robustly. I'll probably add a printf.)
17) Correct the design and usage of vm_page_sleep. It didn't handle
consistancy problems very well, so make the design a little less
lofty. After vm_page_sleep, if it ever blocked, it is still important
to relookup the page (if the object generation count changed), and
verify it's status (always.)
18) In vm_pageout.c, vm_pageout_clean had rotted, so clean that up.
19) Push the page busy for writes and VM_PROT_READ into vm_pageout_flush.
20) Fix vm_pager_put_pages and it's descendents to support an int flag
instead of a boolean, so that we can pass down the invalidate bit.
