When processor enters power-save state it releases resources shared with other
cpu threads which makes other cores working much faster.
This patch also implements saving and restoring registers that might get
corrupted in power-save state.

Make vm_wait() take the vm_object argument which specifies the domain
set to wait for the min condition pass. If there is no object
associated with the wait, use curthread' policy domainset. The
mechanics of the wait in vm_wait() and vm_wait_domain() is supplied by
the new helper vm_wait_doms(), which directly takes the bitmask of the
domains to wait for passing min condition.
Eliminate pagedaemon_wait(). vm_domain_clear() handles the same
operations.
Eliminate VM_WAIT and VM_WAITPFAULT macros, the direct functions calls
are enough.
Eliminate several control state variables from vm_domain, unneeded
after the vm_wait() conversion.

The slab layer is now segregated by VM domains and is precise. It handles
iteration for round-robin directly. The per-cpu cache layer remains
a mix of domains according to where memory is allocated and freed. Well
behaved clients can achieve perfect locality with no performance penalty.
The direct domain allocation functions have to visit the slab layer and
so require per-zone locks which come at some expense.

is used as the bootloader on a number of PPC64 platforms. This involves the
following pieces:
- Making the first instruction a valid kernel entry point, since kexec
ignores the ELF entry value. This requires a separate section and linker
magic to prevent the linker from filling the beginning of the section
with stubs.
- Adding an entry point at 0x60 past the first instruction for systems
lacking firmware CPU shutdown support (notably PS3).
- Linker script changes to support the above.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification

opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,

This simplifies NUMA allocation because the domain will be known at wait
time and races between failure and sleeping are eliminated. This also
reduces boilerplate code and simplifies callers.
A wait primitive is supplied for uma zones for similar reasons. This
eliminates some non-specific VM_WAIT calls in favor of more explicit
sleeps that may be satisfied without new pages.

Idle page zeroing has been disabled by default on all architectures since
r170816 and has some bugs that make it seemingly unusable. Specifically,
the idle-priority pagezero thread exacerbates contention for the free page
lock, and yields the CPU without releasing it in non-preemptive kernels. The
pagezero thread also does not behave correctly when superpage reservations
are enabled: its target is a function of v_free_count, which includes
reserved-but-free pages, but it is only able to zero pages belonging to the
physical memory allocator.

Summary:
There is often a need at the debugger to print arbitrary special
purpose registers (SPRs) on PowerPC. Using a rewritable asm stub, print any SPR
provided on the command line.
Note, as there is no checking in this, attempting to print a nonexistent SPR
may cause a Program exception (illegal instruction, or boundedly undefined).
Note also that this relies on the kernel text pages being writable. If in the
future this is made not the case, this will need to be reworked.

Most of the effect of setting MSR[SF] is that the CPU will stop ignoring
the high 32 bits of registers containing addresses in load/store
instructions. As such, the kernel was setting it only when it began to
need access to high memory. MSR[SF] also affects the operation of some
conditional instructions, however, and so setting it at late times could
subtly break code at very early times. This fixes use of the FDT mode in
loader, and FDT boot more generally, on 64-bit PowerPC systems.

rounddown2 tends to produce longer lines than the original code
and when the code has a high indentation level it was not really
advantageous to do the replacement.
This tries to strike a balance between readability using the macros
and flexibility of having the expressions, so not everything is
converted.
For rs6000, most memory insns and addi/addis do not allow GPR0 for RA
(they use literal zero there instead). So use a 'b' constraint to make
sure to have a base register other than GPR0.
GCC-4.7 and up handles this with allocating r9 instead of r0.
OF_getprop() to get encode-int encoded values from the OF tree. This is
a no-op at present, since all existing PowerPC ports are big-endian, but
it is a correctness improvement and will be required if we have a
little-endian kernel at some future point.
Where it is totally impossible for the code ever to be used on a
little-endian system (much of powerpc/powermac, for instance), I have not
necessarily made the appropriate changes.

initial thread stack is not adjusted by the tunable, the stack is
allocated too early to get access to the kernel environment. See
TD0_KSTACK_PAGES for the thread0 stack sizing on i386.
The tunable was tested on x86 only. From the visual inspection, it
seems that it might work on arm and powerpc. The arm
USPACE_SVC_STACK_TOP and powerpc USPACE macros seems to be already
incorrect for the threads with non-default kstack size. I only
changed the macros to use variable instead of constant, since I cannot
test.
On arm64, mips and sparc64, some static data structures are sized by
KSTACK_PAGES, so the tunable is disabled.

It appears that the linker will not handle 64-bit relocations at addresses that
are not aligned to 8-byte boundaries. Prior to this change the line:
.llong generictrap
was aligned to a 4-byte address, and the linker replaced that with an 8-byte
0x0. Aligning that address to 8 bytes caused the linker to generate the proper
relocation. As a follow-through, the dblow from trap_subr33.S used the code
sequence 'lwz %r1, TRAP_GENTRAP(0)', so this reproduces the analogue of that for
64-bit.

Both booke and AIM interrupt.c files contain nearly identical code. This merges

On Book-E, physical addresses are actually 36-bits, not 32-bits. This is
currently worked around by ignoring the top bits. However, in some cases, the
boot loader configures CCSR to something above the 32-bit mark. This is stage 1
in updating the pmap to handle 36-bit physaddr.
Much of the code was common to begin with. There is one nit, which is likely
not an issue at all. With the old code, the AIM machdep would __syncicache()
the entire kernel core at setup. However, in the unified setup, that seems to
hang on the MPC7455, perhaps because it's running later than before. Removing
this allows it to boot just fine. Examining the code, the FreeBSD loader
already does syncicache of the full kernel, and each module loaded, so this
doesn't appear to be an actual problem.
Initial code by Nathan Whitehorn.
Summary:
Book-E and AIM trap.c are almost identical, except for a few bits. This is step
1 in unifying them.
This also renumbers EXC_DEBUG, to not conflict with AIM vector numbers. Since
this is the only one thus far that is used in the switch statement in trap(),
it's the only one renumbered. If others get added to the switch, which conflict
with AIM numbers, they should also be renumbered.
