these two reasons:
1. On ia64 a function pointer does not hold the address of the first
instruction of a functions implementation. It holds the address
of a function descriptor. Hence the user(), btrap(), eintr() and
bintr() prototypes are wrong for getting the actual code address.
2. The logic forces interrupt, trap and exception entry points to
be layed-out contiguously. This can not be achieved on ia64 and is
generally just bad programming.
The MCOUNT_FROMPC_USER macro is used to set the frompc argument to
some kernel address which represents any frompc that falls outside
the kernel text range. The macro can expand to ~0U to bail out in
that case.
The MCOUNT_FROMPC_INTR macro is used to set the frompc argument to
some kernel address to represent a call to a trap or interrupt
handler. This to avoid that the trap or interrupt handler appear to
be called from everywhere in the call graph. The macro can expand
to ~0U to prevent adjusting frompc. Note that the argument is selfpc,
not frompc.

The hardware always gives read access for privilege level 0, which
means that we cannot use the hardware access rights and privilege
level in the PTE to test whether there's a change in protection. So,
we save the original vm_prot_t in the PTE as well.
Add pmap_pte_prot() to set the proper access rights and privilege
level on the PTE given a pmap and the requested protection.
The above allows us to compare the protection in pmap_extract_and_hold()
which was missing. While in pmap_extract_and_hold(), add pmap locking.

use set_mcontext() to restore the context in sigreturn(). Since we
put the syscall number and the syscall arguments in the trapframe
(we don't save the scratch registers for syscalls, which allows us
to reuse the space to our advantage), create a MD specific flag so
that we save the scratch registers even for syscalls. We would not
be able to restart a syscall otherwise.
The signal trampoline does not need to flush the regiters anymore,
because get_mcontext() already handles that. In fact, if we set up
the context correctly, we do not need to have a trampoline at all.
This change however only minimally changes the trampoline code. In
follow-up commits this can be further optimized.
Note that normally we preserve cfm and iip in the trapframe created
by the EPC syscall path when we restore a context in set_mcontext()
because those fields are not normally set for a synchronuous context.
The kernel puts the return address and frame info of the syscall
stub in there. By preserving these fields we hide this detail from
userland which allows us to use setcontext(2) for user created
contexts. However, sigreturn() is commonly called from the trampoline,
which means that if we preserve cfm and iip in all cases, we would
return to the trampoline after the sigreturn(), which means we hit
the safety net: we call exit(2). So, we do not preserve cfm and iip
when we have a synchronous context that also has scratch registers
(the uncommon context created by sendsig() only), under the assumption
that if such a context is created in userland, something special is
going on and the use of cfm and iip is then just another quirk. All
this is invisible in the common case.

added for XFree86. There are 2 reasons for doing this with sysarch():
1. The memory mapped I/O space is not at a fixed physical address. An
application has to use some interface to get the base address. It
gets worse if the machine has multiple memory mapped I/O spaces.
2. Access to the memory mapped I/O space needs to happen through a
translation that is flagged as uncachable. There's no interface
that allows a process to do uncached memory I/O, other than though
/dev/mem (possibly).
So, until we either disallow direct access to I/O or bus space from

but for CPL != 0. For some reason yet unknown it is possible for the
CPL to be 2. This would previously be counted as kernel mode, which
resulted in nasty panics. By changing the test it is now treated as
user mode, which is more correct. We still need to figure out how it
is possible that the privilege level can be 2 (or 1 for that matter),
because it's not used by us. We only use 3 (user mode) and 0 (kernel

that time.

we return to kernel or userland. This triggered a panic in a KSE

interrupted, but we never called ast() on our way out. As such,
we called ast() at some other time. Unfortunately, TDF_USTATCLOCK
handling assumes running in the interrupt thread. This was not
the case anymore.
To avoid making the same mistake later, interrupt() now returns
to its caller whether we interrupted userland or not. This avoids
that we have to duplicate the check in assembly, where it's bound
to fall off the scope. Now we simply check the return value and
call ast() if appropriate.

It's not the IP address that matters, it's the privilege level that
counts. We never run in user space with lifted permissions and we
sure can not run in kernel space without it. Sure, the gateway page
is the exception, but not if you look at the privilege level. It's
user space if you run with user permissions and kernel space otherwise.
So, we're back to looking at the privilege level like it should be.

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

way, but the architecture can ignore it. But if the

it makes bus_dmamap_sync() calls cheap.

This change specifically disallows using intr_restore() to disable

they were previously enabled.

introduces a grey area in which one can argue either way, including a
third: neither.
We now use the region in which the IP address lies. Regions 5, 6 and 7
are kernel VA regions and if the IP lies any any of those regions we
assume we're in kernel mode. Hence, we can be in kernel mode even if
we're not on the kernel stack and/or have user privileges. There're
gremlins living in the twilight zone :-)
For the EPC syscall path this particularly means that the process
leaves user mode the moment it calls into the gateway page. This
makes the most sense because from a process' point of view the call
represents a request to the kernel for some service and that service
has been performed if the call returns. With the metric we picked,
this also means that we're back in user mode IFF the call returns.

On alpha, PAL is involved in context management and after wiring
the CPU (in alpha_init()) a context switch was performed to tell
PAL about the context. This was bogusly brought over to ia64
where it introduced bugs, because we restored the context from
a mostly uninitialized PCB.
The cleanup constitutes:
o Remove the unused arguments from ia64_init().
o Don't return from ia64_init(), but instead call mi_startup()
directly. This reduces the amount of muckery in assembly and
also allows for the next bullet:
o Save our currect context prior to calling mi_startup(). The
reason for this is that many threads are created from thread0
by cloning the PCB. By saving our context in the PCB, we have
something sane to clone. It also ensures that a cloned thread
that does not alter the context in any way will return to
the saved context, where we're ready for the eventuality with
a nice, user unfriendly panic().
The cleanup fixes at least the following bugs:
o Entering mi_startup() with the RSE in enforced lazy mode.
o Re-execution of ia64_init() in certain "lab" conditions.

switching user regions (region 0-4) with schedlock. Avoid unnecessary
recursion on schedlock by moving the core functionality to another
function (pmap_switch()) where we assert schedlock is held. Turn
pmap_install() into a wrapper that grabs schedlock. This minimizes
the number of callsites that need to be changed.
Since we already have schedlock in cpu_switch() and cpu_throw(),
have them call pmap_switch() directly. These were also the only two
calls to pmap_install() outside pmap.c, so make pmap_install() static
and remove its prototype from pmap.h

prime objectives are:
o Implement a syscall path based on the epc inststruction (see
sys/ia64/ia64/syscall.s).
o Revisit the places were we need to save and restore registers
and define those contexts in terms of the register sets (see
sys/ia64/include/_regset.h).
Secundairy objectives:
o Remove the requirement to use contigmalloc for kernel stacks.
o Better handling of the high FP registers for SMP systems.
o Switch to the new cpu_switch() and cpu_throw() semantics.
o Add a good unwinder to reconstruct contexts for the rare
cases we need to (see sys/contrib/ia64/libuwx)
Many files are affected by this change. Functionally it boils
down to:
o The EPC syscall doesn't preserve registers it does not need
to preserve and places the arguments differently on the stack.
This affects libc and truss.
o The address of the kernel page directory (kptdir) had to
be unstaticized for use by the nested TLB fault handler.
The name has been changed to ia64_kptdir to avoid conflicts.
The renaming affects libkvm.
o The trapframe only contains the special registers and the
scratch registers. For syscalls using the EPC syscall path
no scratch registers are saved. This affects all places where
the trapframe is accessed. Most notably the unaligned access
handler, the signal delivery code and the debugger.
o Context switching only partly saves the special registers
and the preserved registers. This affects cpu_switch() and
triggered the move to the new semantics, which additionally
affects cpu_throw().
o The high FP registers are either in the PCB or on some
CPU. context switching for them is done lazily. This affects
trap().
o The mcontext has room for all registers, but not all of them
have to be defined in all cases. This mostly affects signal
delivery code now. The *context syscalls are as of yet still
unimplemented.
Many details went into the removal of the requirement to use
contigmalloc for kernel stacks. The details are mostly CPU
specific and limited to exception_save() and exception_restore().
The few places where we create, destroy or switch stacks were
mostly simplified by not having to construct physical addresses
and additionally saving the virtual addresses for later use.
Besides more efficient context saving and restoring, which of
course yields a noticable speedup, this also fixes the dreaded
SMP bootup problem as a side-effect. The details of which are
still not fully understood.
This change includes all the necessary backward compatibility
code to have it handle older userland binaries that use the
break instruction for syscalls. Support for break-based syscalls
has been pessimized in favor of a clean implementation. Due to
the overall better performance of the kernel, this will still
be notived as an improvement if it's noticed at all.

The advantage of using register sets is that you don't focus on each
register seperately, but instead instroduce a level of abstraction.
This reduces the chance of errors, and also simplifies the code.
The register sers form the basis of everything register.
The sets in this file are:
struct _special
contains all of the control related registers, such as instruction
pointer and stack pointer. It also contains interrupt specific registers
like the faulting address. The set is roughly split in 3 groups. The
first contains the registers that define a context or thread. This is
the only group that the kernel needs to switch threads. The second group
contains registers needed in addition to the first group needed to switch
userland threads. This group contains the thread pointer and the FP control
register. The third group contains those registers we need for execption
handling and are used on top of the first two groups.
struct _callee_saved, struct _callee_saved_fp
These sets contain the preserved registers, including the NaT after
spilling. The general registers (including branch registers) are
seperated from the FP registers for ptrace(2).
struct _caller_saved, struct _caller_saved_fp
These sets contain the scratch registers based on SDM 2.1, This means that
both ar.csd and ar.ccd are included here, even though they contain ia32
segment register descriptions. We keep seperate NaT bits for scratch and
preserved registers, because they are never saved/restored at the same
time.
struct _high_fp
The upper 96 FP registers that can be enabled/disabled seperately on
the CPU from the lower 32 FP registers. Due to the size of this set,
we treat them specially, even though they are defined as scratch
registers.

Only define ULLONG_MIN/MAX and LLONG_MAX if long long type is

Restore a lost comment in MI _limits.h file and remove it from
sys/limits.h where it does not belong.
o do not use the in* and out* functions. These functions are used by
legacy drivers and thus must have ia32 compatible behaviour. Hence,
they need to have fences. Using these functions for newbus would
then pessimize performance.
o remove the conditional compilation of PIO and/or MEMIO support. It's
a PITA without having any significant benefit. We always support them
both. Since there are no I/O ports on ia64 (they are simulated by the
chipset by translating memory mapped I/O to predefined uncacheable
memory regions) the only difference between PIO and MEMIO is in the
address calculation. There should be enough ILP that can be exploited
here that making these computations compile-time conditional is not
worth it. We now also don't use the read* and write* functions.
o Add the missing *_8 variants. They were missing, although not missed.
It's for completeness.
o Do not add the fences that were present in the low-level support
functions here. We're using uncacheable memory, which means that
accesses are in program order. Change the barrier implementation
to not only do a memory fence, but also an acceptance fence. This
should more reliably synchronize drivers with the hardware. The
memory fence enforces ordering, but does not imply visibility (ie
the access does not necessarily have happened). This is what the
acceptance deals with.
cpufunc.h cleanup:
o Remove the low-level memory mapped I/O support functions. They are
not used. Keep the low-level I/O port access functions for legacy
drivers and add fences to ensure ia32 compatibility.
o Remove the syscons specific functions now that we have moved the
proper definitions where they belong.
o Replace the ia64_port_address() and ia64_memory_address() functions
with macros. There's a bigger change inline functions get inlined
when there aren't function callsi and the calculations are simply
enough to do it with macros.
Replace the one reference to ia64_memory address in mp_machdep.c to
use the macro.

- Fix printf formats to handle physical addresses >4G in the i386 memory

are machine dependent because they are not required to update the tlb when
mappings are added or removed, and doing so is machine dependent.
In addition, an implementation may require that pages mapped with pmap_kenter
have a backing vm_page_t, which is not necessarily true of all physical
pages, and so may choose to pass the vm_page_t to pmap_kenter instead of the
physical address in order to make this requirement clear.
not save (restore) the global pointer (GP) in the jmpbuf in setjmp
(longjmp) because it's not needed in general. GP is considered a
scratch register at callsites and hence is always restored after a
call (when it's possible that the call resolves to a symbol in a
different loadmodule; otherwise GP does not have to be saved and
restored at all), including calls to setjmp/longjmp. There's just
one problem with this now that we use setjmp/longjmp for context
switching: A new context must have GP defined properly for the
thread's entry point. This means that we need to put GP in the
jmpbuf and consequently that we have to restore is in longjmp.
This automaticly requires us to save it as well.
When setjmp/longjmp isn't used for context switching, this can be
reverted again.
the J_SIG0 field. While here, rename J_SIG0 to J_SIGSET and
remove J_SIG1. The main reason for this change is that the
128-bit sigset_t is now aligned on a 16-byte boundary, which
allows us to use 16-byte atomic loads and stores on CPUs that
support it. The removal of J_SIG1 is done to avoid confusion:
it is never accessed and should not be. Renaming J_SIG0 to
J_SIGSET is the icing on the cake that's better done now than
later.

HUGE_VALL, INFINITY, NAN, and return values for fpclassify()) to
<math.h> and others (FLT_EVAL_METHOD, DECIMAL_DIG) to <float.h> via

o Add C99 macro fpclassify() which calls __fpclassify{d,f,l}() based
on the size of its argument. __fpclassifyl() is never called on
alpha because (sizeof(long double) == sizeof(double)), which is good
since __fpclassifyl() can't deal with such a small `long double'.

and instead add platform, firmware and EFI stubs to the loader.
The net effect of this change is that besides a special console and
disk driver, the kernel has no knowledge of the simulator. This has
the following advantages:
o Simulator support is much harder to break,
o It's easier to make use of more feature complete simulators.
This would only need a change in the simulator specific loader,
o Running SMP kernels within the simulator. Note that ski at this
time does not simulate IPIs, so there's no way to start APs.
The platform, firmware and EFI stubs describe the following hardware:
o 4 CPU Itanium,
o 128 MB RAM within the 4GB address space,
o 64 MB RAM above the 4GB address space.
NOTE: The stubs in the skiloader describe a machine that should in
parts be defined by the simulator. Things like processor interrupt
block and AP wakeup vector cannot be choosen at random because they
require interpretation by the simulator. Currently the simulator is
ignorant of this.
This change introduces an unofficial SSC call SSC_SAL_SET_VECTORS
which is ignored by the simulator.

in use as the AP wakeup vector on the HP rx2600.
This needs to be made more dynamic. The likelyhood of vector 254
being in use is pretty small, but we already have code to assign
vectors to IPIs (see sal.c) and it's preobably better to have a
centralized "vector manager" that hands out vectors based on
some imput (like priority).

devices aren't necessarily mapped within 4GB. I/O port addresses
are offsets into the memory mapped I/O port space, which is not
larger than 16MB. No need to convert those to 64 bit types.
The HCDP table is one (non-proprietary) way for the platform to
inform the OS about headless operation. This field would normally
hold the address as can be found by scanning the EFI system table,
which we also pass to the kernel. The apparent duplication allows
us to synthesize a HCDP table in the loader by whatever means we
can think of, including relocating the platform table into pre-
mapped address space. In short: it gives us more freedom.

Add function map_port_space() to map the memory mapped I/O port

Don't force 16-byte alignment at run-time. Do it at compile-time.
This saves us the pointer fiddling by the setjmp functions and
reduces complexity. While here, increase the jmp_buf by 16 bytes
to an even 512 bytes. Coincidentally, due to the way alignment
was handled prior to this change, the jmp_buf has not changed in
size, but only in how the space is used. Prior to this change
the 16 bytes were reserved for enforcing alignment; now they are
reserved by us for future extensions.
Therefore, this ABI breaker is relatively save: the failure is
always an alignment trap.

better match how we save and restore the (preserved) registers. This

Only minimal effort has been put in writing optimal assembly. The
expectation is that there will be more rounds of changes.
