goal of shipping 8.0 with MAC support in the default kernel. No policies
will be compiled in or enabled by default, but it will now be possible to
load them at boot or runtime without a kernel recompile.
While the framework is not believed to impose measurable overhead when no
policies are loaded (a result of optimization over the past few months in
HEAD), we'll continue to benchmark and optimize as the release approaches.
Please keep an eye out for performance or functionality regressions that
could be a result of this change.

This attempts to fix the IPI handling code to correctly differentiate
between bitmapped IPIs and function IPIs. The Xen IPIs were on low numbers
which clashed with the bitmapped IPIs.
This commit bumps those IPI numbers up to 240 and above (just like in the i386
code) and fiddles with the ipi_vectors[] logic to call the correct function.
This still isn't "right". Specifically, the IPI code may work fine for TLB
shootdown events but the rendezvous/lazypmap IPIs are thrown by calling ipi_*()
routines which don't set the call_func stuff (function id, addr1, addr2) that
the TLB shootdown events are. So the Xen SMP support is still broken.

The code path this was copied from (sys/i386/i386/mp_machdep.c:ipi_selected())
handles bitmap'ed IPIs and normal IPIs via separate notification paths. Xen
SMP handles them the same way.
in all the places/cases IPI messages will be generated, at least be consistent
with how the call_data pointer is assigned and cleared (ie, all done inside

Ensure that its NULL before continuing, just to try and identify situations

The system hostname is now stored in prison0, and the global variable
"hostname" has been removed, as has the hostname_mtx mutex. Jails may
have their own host information, or they may inherit it from the
parent/system. The proper way to read the hostname is via
getcredhostname(), which will copy either the hostname associated with
the passed cred, or the system hostname if you pass NULL. The system
hostname can still be accessed directly (and without locking) at
prison0.pr_host, but that should be avoided where possible.
The "similar information" referred to is domainname, hostid, and
hostuuid, which have also become prison parameters and had their
associated global variables removed.

The "wall clock" in the current code is actually the hypervisor start time.
The time of day is the "start time" plus the hypervisor "uptime".
Large enough bumps in the dom0 clock lead to a hypervisor "bump" which is
implemented as a bump in the start time, not the uptime. The clock.c routines
were reading in the hypervisor start time and then using this as the TOD.
This meant that any hypervisor time bump would cause the FreeBSD DomU to
set its TOD to the hypervisor start time, rather than the actual TOD.
This fix is a bit hacky and some reshuffling should be done later on
to clarify what is going on. I've left the wall clock code alone.
(The code which updates shadow_tv and shadow_tv_version.)
A new routine adds the uptime to the shadow_tv, which is then used to
update the TOD.
I've included some debugging so it is obvious when the clock is nudged.

The hypervisor doesn't provide a single "TOD" - it instead provides a
"start time" and a "running time". These are added together to form
the current TOD. The TOD is in UTC.
This RTC is only (initially) designed to be read at startup. There's
some further poking that needs to happen to pick up hypervisor time
changes (ie, by the Dom0 time being adjusted by something). This
time adjustment currently can cause "weird stuff" in the DomU clock;
I'll begin investigating and repairing that in subsequent commits.

possible future I-cache coherency operation can succeed. On ARM
for example the L1 cache can be (is) virtually mapped, which
means that any I/O that uses temporary mappings will not see the
I-cache made coherent. On ia64 a similar behaviour has been
observed. By flushing the D-cache, execution of binaries backed
by md(4) and/or NFS work reliably.
For Book-E (powerpc), execution over NFS exhibits SIGILL once in
a while as well, though cpu_flush_dcache() hasn't been implemented
yet.
Doing an explicit D-cache flush as part of the non-DMA based I/O
read operation eliminates the need to do it as part of the
I-cache coherency operation itself and as such avoids pessimizing
the DMA-based I/O read operations for which D-cache are already
flushed/invalidated. It also allows future optimizations whereby
the bcopy() followed by the D-cache flush can be integrated in a
single operation, which could be implemented using on-chips DMA
engines, by-passing the D-cache altogether.

With the arrival of 128+ cores it is necessary to handle more than that.
One of the first thing to change is the support for cpumask_t that needs
to handle more than 32 bits masking (which happens now). Some places,
however, still assume that cpumask_t is a 32 bits mask.
Fix that situation by using always correctly cpumask_t when needed.
While here, remove the part under STOP_NMI for the Xen support as it
is broken in any case.
Additively make ipi_nmi_pending as static.

- For CPUs that only support MCE (the machine check exception) but not MCA
(i.e. Pentium), all this does is print out the value of the machine check
registers and then panic when a machine check exception occurs.
- For CPUs that support MCA (the machine check architecture), the support is
a bit more involved.
- First, there is limited support for decoding the CPU-independent MCA
error codes in the kernel, and the kernel uses this to output a short
description of any machine check events that occur.
- When a machine check exception occurs, all of the MCx banks on the
current CPU are scanned and any events are reported to the console
before panic'ing.
- To catch events for correctable errors, a periodic timer kicks off a
task which scans the MCx banks on all CPUs. The frequency of these
checks is controlled via the "hw.mca.interval" sysctl.
- Userland can request an immediate scan of the MCx banks by writing
a non-zero value to "hw.mca.force_scan".
- If any correctable events are encountered, the appropriate details
are stored in a 'struct mca_record' (defined in <machine/mca.h>).
The "hw.mca.count" is a count of such records and each record may
be queried via the "hw.mca.records" tree by specifying the record
index (0 .. count - 1) as the next name in the MIB similar to using
PIDs with the kern.proc.* sysctls. The idea is to export machine
check events to userland for more detailed processing.
- The periodic timer and hw.mca sysctls are only present if the CPU
supports MCA.

had no harmful effects until after a recent change, r189698, on amd64.
(In other words, the error is harmless in RELENG_7.)
The error is triggered by the failure to allocate a pv entry for the one
and only mapping in a page table page. I am addressing the error by
changing pmap_copy() to abort if either pv entry allocation or page
table page allocation fails. This is appropriate because the creation of
mappings by pmap_copy() is optional. They are a (possible) optimization,
and not a requirement.
Correct a nearby whitespace error in the i386 pmap_copy().

Teach i386 and amd64 SMP platforms to emulate stat-/profclocks using i8254

This allows to reduce global interrupt rate of idle system down to about
100 interrupts per core, permitting C3 and deeper C-states provide maximum
CPU power efficiency.

Add hint.apic.0.clock tunable. Setting it 0 disables using LAPIC timers

On modern CPUs LAPIC is a part of CPU core which is shutting down when CPU
enters C3 or deeper power state. It makes no problems for interrupt
processing, as chipset wakes up CPU on interrupt triggering. But entering
C3 state kills LAPIC timer and freezes system time, making C3 and deeper
states practically unusable. Using i8254 timer allows to avoid this
problem.
By using i8254 timer my T7700 C2D CPU with UP kernel successfully enters
C3 state, saving more then a Watt of total idle power (>10%) in addition to
all other power-saving techniques.
This technique is not working for SMP yet, as only one CPU receives
timer interrupts. But I think that problem could be fixed by forwarding
interrupts to other CPUs with IPI.
Old implemention used Giant to protect the kernel data structures,
but at the same time called malloc(M_WAITOK), that could cause the
calling thread to sleep and lost Giant protection. User-visible
result was the missed wakeup.
New implementation uses one sx lock per futex. The sx protects
the futex structures and allows to sleep while copyin or copyout
are performed.
Unlike linux, we return EINVAL when FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE operation
is requested and either caller specified futexes are equial or
second futex already exists. This is acceptable since the situation
can only occur from the application error, and glibc falls back to
old FUTEX_WAKE operation when FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE returns an error.
