syscall return values should be cleared. The system calls
getcontext() and swapcontext() want to return 0 on success
but these contexts can be switched to at a later time so
the return values need to be cleared in the saved register
sets. Other callers of get_mcontext() would normally want
the context without clearing the return values.
Remove the i386-specific context saving from the KSE code.
get_mcontext() is not i386-specific any more.
Fix a bad pointer in the alpha get_mcontext() code. The
context was being bcopy()'d from &td->tf_frame, but tf_frame
is itself a pointer, so the thread was being copied instead.

These are called through function pointers so that different implementations

In terms of raw bandwidth the integer versions are faster, but not allocating
lines in the L2 cache for useless data gives a measurable improvement in user

as it could be and can do with some more cleanup. Currently its under
options LAZY_SWITCH. What this does is avoid %cr3 reloads for short
context switches that do not involve another user process. ie: we can
take an interrupt, switch to a kthread and return to the user without
explicitly flushing the tlb. However, this isn't as exciting as it could
be, the interrupt overhead is still high and too much blocks on Giant
still. There are some debug sysctls, for stats and for an on/off switch.
The main problem with doing this has been "what if the process that you're
running on exits while we're borrowing its address space?" - in this case
we use an IPI to give it a kick when we're about to reclaim the pmap.
Its not compiled in unless you add the LAZY_SWITCH option. I want to fix a
few more things and get some more feedback before turning it on by default.
This is NOT a replacement for Bosko's lazy interrupt stuff. This was more
meant for the kthread case, while his was for interrupts. Mine helps a
little for interrupts, but his helps a lot more.
The stats are enabled with options SWTCH_OPTIM_STATS - this has been a
pseudo-option for years, I just added a bunch of stuff to it.
One non-trivial change was to select a new thread before calling
cpu_switch() in the first place. This allows us to catch the silly
case of doing a cpu_switch() to the current process. This happens
uncomfortably often. This simplifies a bit of the asm code in cpu_switch
(no longer have to call choosethread() in the middle). This has been
implemented on i386 and (thanks to jake) sparc64. The others will come
soon. This is actually seperate to the lazy switch stuff.

Fixed memory leak in the "nodevice" option implementation.
Use these instead of sed(1) in MD NOTES.
Use a single makefile (sys/conf/makeLINT.mk) to generate
LINT for all architectures. (Previous versions missed
the LINT dependency on Makefile, and i386 version also
missed the dependency on ${NOTES}.)
Fixed bugs in the previous NOTES conversion using the
"nodevice" token and sed(1):
- i386 LINT lost "device pst".
- pc98 LINT lost SC_*, MAXCONS and KBD_DISABLE_KEYMAP_LOAD
options, and got needless DPT_* options.
- Added nooptions PPC_DEBUG, PPC_PROBE_CHIPSET, KBD_INSTALL_CDEV
to sparc64 LINT so that it has a chance to config(8).
This basically returns us to where we were before.
- Get rid of the useless atop() / pmap_phys_address() detour. The
device mmap handlers must now give back the physical address
without atop()'ing it.
- Don't borrow the physical address of the mapping in the returned
int. Now we properly pass a vm_offset_t * and expect it to be
filled by the mmap handler when the mapping was successful. The
mmap handler must now return 0 when successful, any other value
is considered as an error. Previously, returning -1 was the only
way to fail. This change thus accidentally fixes some devices
which were bogusly returning errno constants which would have been
considered as addresses by the device pager.
- Garbage collect the poorly named pmap_phys_address() now that it's
no longer used.
- Convert all the d_mmap_t consumers to the new API.
I'm still not sure wheter we need a __FreeBSD_version bump for this,

counterparts to bus_dmamem_alloc() and bus_dmamem_free(). This allows
the caller to specify the size of the allocation instead of it defaulting
to the max_size field of the busdma tag.
This is intended to aid in converting drivers to busdma. Lots of
hardware cannot understand scatter/gather lists, which forces the
driver to copy the i/o buffers to a single contiguous region
before sending it to the hardware. Without these new methods, this
would require a new busdma tag for each operation, or a complex
internal allocator/cache for each driver.
Allocations greater than PAGE_SIZE are rounded up to the next
PAGE_SIZE by contigmalloc(), so this is not suitable for multiple
static allocations that would be better served by a single
fixed-length subdivided allocation.

data structure called kse_upcall to manage UPCALL. All KSE binding
and loaning code are gone.
A thread owns an upcall can collect all completed syscall contexts in
its ksegrp, turn itself into UPCALL mode, and takes those contexts back
to userland. Any thread without upcall structure has to export their
contexts and exit at user boundary.
Any thread running in user mode owns an upcall structure, when it enters
kernel, if the kse mailbox's current thread pointer is not NULL, then
when the thread is blocked in kernel, a new UPCALL thread is created and
the upcall structure is transfered to the new UPCALL thread. if the kse
mailbox's current thread pointer is NULL, then when a thread is blocked
in kernel, no UPCALL thread will be created.
Each upcall always has an owner thread. Userland can remove an upcall by
calling kse_exit, when all upcalls in ksegrp are removed, the group is
atomatically shutdown. An upcall owner thread also exits when process is
in exiting state. when an owner thread exits, the upcall it owns is also
removed.
KSE is a pure scheduler entity. it represents a virtual cpu. when a thread
is running, it always has a KSE associated with it. scheduler is free to
assign a KSE to thread according thread priority, if thread priority is changed,
KSE can be moved from one thread to another.
When a ksegrp is created, there is always N KSEs created in the group. the
N is the number of physical cpu in the current system. This makes it is
possible that even an userland UTS is single CPU safe, threads in kernel still
can execute on different cpu in parallel. Userland calls kse_create to add more
upcall structures into ksegrp to increase concurrent in userland itself, kernel
is not restricted by number of upcalls userland provides.
The code hasn't been tested under SMP by author due to lack of hardware.
