before doing the very expensive cursig() and related locking. NEEDSIGCHK
is updated whenever our signal mask change or when a signal is delivered and
should be sufficient to avoid the more expensive tests. This eliminates
another source of PROC_LOCK contention in multithreaded programs.
- In the last revision the code was changed to use maxfilesperproc rather than
the per-process file limit to restrict the size of the poll array. This
eliminates a significant source of process lock contention in multithreaded
programs and is cheaper. This had been committed with the wrong batch of
changes.
a simple (wmesg, count) tuple in a hash to keep track of how many times
we sleep at each wait message. We hash on message and not channel. No
line number information is given as typically wait messages are not used in
more than one place. Identical strings defined at different addresses will
show up with seperate counters.
- Use debug.sleepq.enable to enable, .reset to reset, and .stats dumps stats.
- Do an unsynchronized check in sleepq_switch() prior to switching before
calling sleepq_profile() which uses a global lock to synchronize the hash.
Only sleeps which actually cause a context switch are counted.

In the giant_XXX wrappers for the device methods of the D_NEEDGIANT
drivers, do not dereference the cdev->si_devsw. It is racing with
the destroy_devl() clearing of the si_devsw. Instead, use the
dev_refthread() and return ENXIO for the destroyed device. [1]
The check for the D_INIT in the prep_cdevsw() was not synchronized with
the call of the fini_cdevsw() in destroy_devl(), that under rapid device
creation/destruction may result in the use of uninitialized cdevsw [2].
Change the protocol for the prep_cdevsw(), requiring it to be called
under dev_mtx, where the check for D_INIT is done.
Do not free the memory allocated for the gianttrick cdevsw while holding
the dev_mtx, put it into the free list to be freed later. Reuse the
d_gianttrick pointer to keep the size and layout of the struct cdevsw
(requested by phk). Free the memory in the dev_unlock_and_free(), and do
all the free after the dev_mtx is dropped (suggested by jhb).

- Add a new intr_event method ie_assign_cpu() that is invoked when the MI
code wishes to bind an interrupt source to an individual CPU. The MD
code may reject the binding with an error. If an assign_cpu function
is not provided, then the kernel assumes the platform does not support
binding interrupts to CPUs and fails all requests to do so.
- Bind ithreads to CPUs on their next execution loop once an interrupt
event is bound to a CPU. Only shared ithreads are bound. We currently
leave private ithreads for drivers using filters + ithreads in the
INTR_FILTER case unbound.
- A new intr_event_bind() routine is used to bind an interrupt event to
a CPU.
- Implement binding on amd64 and i386 by way of the existing pic_assign_cpu
PIC method.
- For x86, provide a 'intr_bind(IRQ, cpu)' wrapper routine that looks up
an interrupt source and binds its interrupt event to the specified CPU.
MI code can currently (ab)use this by doing:
intr_bind(rman_get_start(irq_res), cpu);
however, I plan to add a truly MI interface (probably a bus_bind_intr(9))
where the implementation in the x86 nexus(4) driver would end up calling
intr_bind() internally.

The PQ3 is a high performance integrated communications processing system
based on the e500 core, which is an embedded RISC processor that implements
the 32-bit Book E definition of the PowerPC architecture. For details refer
to: http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=MPC8555E
This port was tested and successfully run on the following members of the PQ3
family: MPC8533, MPC8541, MPC8548, MPC8555.
The following major integrated peripherals are supported:
* On-chip peripherals bus
* OpenPIC interrupt controller
* UART
* Ethernet (TSEC)
* Host/PCI bridge
* QUICC engine (SCC functionality)
This commit brings the main functionality and will be followed by individual
drivers that are logically separate from this base.
