1) Use the TX FIFO empty interrupts to poll the transmit FIFO usage,
instead of using own software counters and waiting for SOF
interrupts. Assume that enough FIFO space is available to execute one
USB OUT transfer of any kind when the TX FIFO is empty.
2) Use the host channel halted event to asynchronously wait for host
channels to be disabled instead of waiting for SOF interrupts. This
results in less turnaround time for re-using host channels and at the
same time increases the performance.
The network transmit performance measured by "iperf" for the "RPi-B v1
2011/12" board, increased from 45MBit/s to 65Mbit/s after applying the
changes above.

Their primary use was in thread_cow_update to free up old resources.
Freeing had to be done with proc lock held and _cow_ funcs already knew
how to free old structs.
Transitions 0->1 and 1->0 (which decide e.g. on putting the vnode on the free
list) of either counter are still guarded with vnode interlock.

If KSTACK_PAGES was changed to anything alse than the default,
the value from param.h was taken instead in some places and
the value from KENRCONF in some others. This resulted in
inconsistency which caused corruption in SMP envorinment.

Summary:
In a runtime that is purely based on capability-based security, there is
a strong emphasis on how programs start their execution. We need to make
sure that we execute an new program with an exact set of file
descriptors, ensuring that credentials are not leaked into the process
accidentally.
Providing the right file descriptors is just half the problem. There
also needs to be a framework in place that gives meaning to these file
descriptors. How does a CloudABI mail server know which of the file
descriptors corresponds to the socket that receives incoming emails?
Furthermore, how will this mail server acquire its configuration
parameters, as it cannot open a configuration file from a global path on
disk?
CloudABI solves this problem by replacing traditional string command
line arguments by tree-like data structure consisting of scalars,
sequences and mappings (similar to YAML/JSON). In this structure, file
descriptors are treated as a first-class citizen. When calling exec(),
file descriptors are passed on to the new executable if and only if they
are referenced from this tree structure. See the cloudabi-run(1) man
page for more details and examples (sysutils/cloudabi-utils).
Fortunately, the kernel does not need to care about this tree structure
at all. The C library is responsible for serializing and deserializing,
but also for extracting the list of referenced file descriptors. The
system call only receives a copy of the serialized data and a layout of
what the new file descriptor table should look like:
int proc_exec(int execfd, const void *data, size_t datalen, const int *fds,
size_t fdslen);
This change introduces a set of fd*_remapped() functions:
- fdcopy_remapped() pulls a copy of a file descriptor table, remapping
all of the file descriptors according to the provided mapping table.
- fdinstall_remapped() replaces the file descriptor table of the process
by the copy created by fdcopy_remapped().
- fdescfree_remapped() frees the table in case we aborted before
fdinstall_remapped().
We then add a function exec_copyin_data_fds() that builds on top these
functions. It copies in the data and constructs a new remapped file
descriptor. This is used by cloudabi_sys_proc_exec().
Test Plan:
cloudabi-run(1) is capable of spawning processes successfully, providing
it data and file descriptors. procstat -f seems to confirm all is good.
Regular FreeBSD processes also work properly.

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.

current value. It is believed that the change is the real fix for the
issue which was covered over by the r252683.
With the current code, if the interrupt handler sets it_need between
read and consequent reset, the update could be lost and
ithread_execute_handlers() would not be called in response to the lost
update.
The r252683 could have hide the issue since at the moment of commit,
atomic_load_acq_int() did locked cmpxchg on the variable, which puts
the cache line into the exclusive owned state and clears store
buffers. Then the immediate store of zero has very high chance of
reusing the exclusive state of the cache line and make the load and
store sequence operate as atomic swap.
For now, add the acq+rel fence immediately after the swap, to not
disturb current (but excessive) ordering. Acquire is needed for the
ih_need reads after the load, while release does not serve a useful
purpose [*].
