- The MD functions critical_enter/exit are renamed to start with a cpu_
prefix.
- MI wrapper functions critical_enter/exit maintain a per-thread nesting
count and a per-thread critical section saved state set when entering
a critical section while at nesting level 0 and restored when exiting
to nesting level 0. This moves the saved state out of spin mutexes so
that interlocking spin mutexes works properly.
- Most low-level MD code that used critical_enter/exit now use
cpu_critical_enter/exit. MI code such as device drivers and spin
mutexes use the MI wrappers. Note that since the MI wrappers store
the state in the current thread, they do not have any return values or
arguments.
- mtx_intr_enable() is replaced with a constant CRITICAL_FORK which is
assigned to curthread->td_savecrit during fork_exit().
Tested on: i386, alpha
- 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.

The log for rev.1.7 should have said something like:
Added FPU_ERROR_BROKEN option. This forces a successful probe for
exception 16, so that hardware with a broken FPU error signal can sort
of work.
Use the normal interrupt handler (npx_intr()) instead of a special
probe-time interrupt handler, although this causes problems due to
the bus_teardown_intr() not actually even tearing down the interrupt
(these problems were avoided by doing interrupt attachment for the
special interrupt handler directly). Fixed minor bitrot in comments.
The reason for the npxprobe()/npxprobe1() split mostly went away at
about the same time it was made (in 1992 or 1993 just before the
beginning of history). 386BSD ran all probes with interrupts completely
masked, and I didn't want to disturb this when I added an irq probe
to npxprobe(). An irq (not necessarily npx) must be acked for at least
external npx's to take the cpu out of the wait state that it enters
when an npx error occurs, so the probe must be done with a suitable
irq unmasked. npxprobe() went to great lengths to unmask precisely
the npx irq.
Running probes with all interrupts masked was never really needed in
FreeBSD, since FreeBSD always masked interrupts well enough using
splhigh(), but it wasn't until rev.1.48 (1995/12/12) of autoconf.c
that all probes were run with CPU interrupts enabled. This permits
npxprobe() to probe its irq using normal interrupt resources. Note
that most drivers still can't depend on this. It depends on the
interrupt handler being fast and the irq not being shared.
lost when the buggy code goes away completely:
- don't assume that the npx irq number is >= 8. Rev.1.73 only reversed
part of the hard-coding of it to 13 in rev.1.66.
- backed out the part of rev.1.84 that added a highly confused comment
about an enable_intr() being "highly bogus". The whole reason for
existence of npxprobe() (separate from the main probe, npxprobe1())
is to handle the complications to make this enable_intr() safe.
- backed out the part of rev.1.94 that modified npxprobe(). It mainly
broke the enable_intr() to restore_intr(). Restoring the interrupt
state in a nested way is precisely what is not wanted here. It was
harmless in practice because npxprobe() is called with interrupts
enabled, so restoring the interrupt state enables interrupts. Most
of npxprobe() is a no-op for the same reason...

- Use u_int's to store the tick counts for profiling purposes so that we
do not need sched_lock just to read p_sticks. This also closes a

- Fix up locking with sched_lock some. In addupc_intr(), use sched_lock
to ensure pr_addr and pr_ticks are updated atomically with setting
PS_OWEUPC. In ast() we clear pr_ticks atomically with clearing
PS_OWEUPC. We also do not grab the lock just to test a flag.

npxsave() went to great lengths to excecute fnsave with interrupts
enabled in case executing it froze the CPU. This case can't happen,
at least for Intel CPU/NPX's. Spurious IRQ13's don't imply spurious
freezes. Anyway, the complications were usually no-ops because IRQ13
is not used on i486's and newer CPUs, and because SMPng broke them in
rev.1.84. Forcible enabling of interrupts was changed to
write_eflags(old_eflags), but since SMPng usually calls npxsave() from
cpu_switch() with interrupts disabled, write_eflags() usually just
kept interrupts disabled.
npxinit() didn't have the usual race because it doesn't save to curpcb,
but it may have had a worse form of it since it uses the npx when it
doesn't "own" it. I'm not sure if locking prevented this. npxinit()
is normally caled with the proc lock but not sched_lock.
Use a critical region to protect pushing of curproc's npx state to
curpcb in npxexit(). Not doing so was harmless since it at worst
saved a wrong state to a dieing pcb.
handling, SMPng always switches the npx context away from curproc
before calling the handler, so the handler always paniced. When using
exception 16 exception handling, SMPng sometimes switches the npx
context away from curproc before calling the handler, so the handler
sometimes paniced. Also, we didn't lock the context while using it,
so we sometimes didn't detect the switch and then paniced in a less
controlled way.
Just lock the context while using it, and return without doing anything
except clearing the busy latch if the context is not for curproc. This
fixes the exception 16 case and makes the IRQ13 case harmless. In both
cases, the instruction that caused the exception is restarted and the
exception repeats. In the exception 16 case, we soon get an exception
that can be handled without doing anything special. In the IRQ13 case,
we get an easy to kill hung process.

mtx_enter(lock, type) becomes:
mtx_lock(lock) for sleep locks (MTX_DEF-initialized locks)
mtx_lock_spin(lock) for spin locks (MTX_SPIN-initialized)
similarily, for releasing a lock, we now have:
mtx_unlock(lock) for MTX_DEF and mtx_unlock_spin(lock) for MTX_SPIN.
We change the caller interface for the two different types of locks
because the semantics are entirely different for each case, and this
makes it explicitly clear and, at the same time, it rids us of the
extra `type' argument.
The enter->lock and exit->unlock change has been made with the idea
that we're "locking data" and not "entering locked code" in mind.
Further, remove all additional "flags" previously passed to the
lock acquire/release routines with the exception of two:
MTX_QUIET and MTX_NOSWITCH
The functionality of these flags is preserved and they can be passed
to the lock/unlock routines by calling the corresponding wrappers:
mtx_{lock, unlock}_flags(lock, flag(s)) and
mtx_{lock, unlock}_spin_flags(lock, flag(s)) for MTX_DEF and MTX_SPIN
locks, respectively.
Re-inline some lock acq/rel code; in the sleep lock case, we only
inline the _obtain_lock()s in order to ensure that the inlined code
fits into a cache line. In the spin lock case, we inline recursion and
actually only perform a function call if we need to spin. This change
has been made with the idea that we generally tend to avoid spin locks
and that also the spin locks that we do have and are heavily used
(i.e. sched_lock) do recurse, and therefore in an effort to reduce
function call overhead for some architectures (such as alpha), we
inline recursion for this case.

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

"sys/i386/include/asnames.h". It so happens that failure to do

It sure would be nice if there was an unmapped page between the PCB and

it is still fairly easy to poke around in the overflowed stack to figure
out the cause.
