Pointy hat to: me
a leftover from the days when a low-level debugger had hooks in the
undefined exception vector and needed stack space to function. These days
it effectively isn't used because we switch immediately to the svc32 mode
stack on exception entry. For that, the single undef mode stack per core
that gets set up at init time works fine.
The stack wasn't necessary but it was harmful, because the space for it
was carved out of the normal per-thread svc32 stack, in effect cutting
that 8K stack in half. If svc32 mode used more than 4k of stack space it
wandered down into the undef mode stack, and then an undef exception would
overwrite a couple words on the stack while switching to svc32 mode,
corrupting the scv32 stack. Having another stack abut the bottom of the
svc32 stack also effectively mooted the guard page below the stack.
This work is based on analysis and patches submitted by Juergen Weiss.
The old code was full of complexity that would only matter if the
kernel itself used the VFP hardware. Now that's reduced to either killing
the userland process or panicking the kernel on an illegal VFP instruction.
This removes most of the complexity from the assembler code, reducing it
to just calling the save code if the outgoing thread used the VFP.
The routine that stores the VFP state now takes a flag that indicates
whether the hardware should be disabled after saving state. Right now it
always is, but this makes the code ready to be used by get/set_mcontext()
(doing so will be addressed in a future commit).
Remove the arm-specific pc_vfpcthread from struct pcpu and use the MI

This adds the global variable and ensures that all the various copies

a new physmem.c file. The new code provides helper routines that can be
used by legacy SoCs and newer FDT-based systems. There are routines to
add one or more regions of physically contiguous ram, and exclude one or
more physically contiguous regions of ram. Ram can be excluded from crash
dumps, from being given over to the vm system for allocation management,
or both. After all the included and excluded regions have been added,
arm_physmem_init_kernel_globals() processes the regions into the global
dump_avail and phys_avail arrays and realmem and physmem variables that
communicate memory configuration to the rest of the kernel.
Convert all existing SoCs to use the new helper code.
This was an optimization used only by a few xscale platforms. Part of
the optimization was to create a direct map for all physical pages, and
that resulted in making multiple mappings of pages in a way that bypassed
the logic in pmap.c to handle VIVT cache aliasing. It also just generally
made the code more complex and hard to maintain for all SoCs.

the old way was to store pcpu in a register, and get curthread from pcpu,
which is not very atomic, and led to issues if the thread was migrated
to another core between the time we got the pcpu address and the time we
got curthread.
Instead, we now store curthread where pcpu used to be store, and we
calculate the pcpu address based on the cpu id.

This was the cause of the "wrong-endian register restore" bug that's
been causing problems with some cortex-a9 chips. The 'endian' bit in the
spsr register would never get changed (it falls into the 'x' mask group)
and the first return-from-exception would fail if the chip had powered on
with garbage in the spsr register that included the big-endian bit. It's
unknown why this affected only certain cortex-a9 chips.

- Remove it entirely on PowerPC, where it is not used by MD code either
- Remove all references to machine/fdt.h in non-architecture-specific code
(aside from uart_cpu_fdt.c, shared by ARM and MIPS, and so is somewhat
non-arch-specific).
- Fix code relying on header pollution from machine/fdt.h includes
- Legacy fdtbus.c (still used on x86 FDT systems) now passes resource
requests to its parent (nexus). This allows x86 FDT devices to allocate
both memory and IO requests and removes the last notionally MI use of
fdtbus_bs_tag.
- On those architectures that retain a machine/fdt.h, unused bits like
FDT_MAP_IRQ and FDT_INTR_MAX have been removed.

New function pointer was added to nexus which corresponds

words, every architecture is now auto-sizing the kmem arena. This revision
changes kmeminit() so that the definition of VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE becomes
mandatory and the definition of VM_KMEM_SIZE becomes optional.
Replace or eliminate all existing definitions of VM_KMEM_SIZE. With
auto-sizing enabled, VM_KMEM_SIZE effectively became an alternate spelling
for VM_KMEM_SIZE_MIN on most architectures. Use VM_KMEM_SIZE_MIN for
clarity.
Change kmeminit() so that the effect of defining VM_KMEM_SIZE is similar to
that of setting the tunable vm.kmem_size. Whereas the macros
VM_KMEM_SIZE_{MAX,MIN,SCALE} have had the same effect as the tunables
vm.kmem_size_{max,min,scale}, the effects of VM_KMEM_SIZE and vm.kmem_size
have been distinct. In particular, whereas VM_KMEM_SIZE was overridden by
VM_KMEM_SIZE_{MAX,MIN,SCALE} and vm.kmem_size_{max,min,scale}, vm.kmem_size
was not. Remedy this inconsistency. Now, VM_KMEM_SIZE can be used to set
the size of the kmem arena at compile-time without that value being
overridden by auto-sizing.
Update the nearby comments to reflect the kmem submap being replaced by the
kmem arena. Stop duplicating the auto-sizing formula in every machine-
dependent vmparam.h and place it in kmeminit() where auto-sizing takes
place.
