and fixed everything that dependended on it being declared in the old
place. It is used in "machine-independent" code in subr_prof.c.
Moved declaration of btext from subr_prof.c to <machine/cpu.h>. It
is machine-dependent.
This driver includes the following patches submitted by:
1.0 Hideyuki Suzuki <hideyuki@sat.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp>
Japanese Cable support
2.0 Keith Sklower <sklower@CS.Berkeley.EDU>
Minor update to the BSDI section so it compiles cleanly on BSDI
3.0 Joao Carlos Mendes Luis <jonny@coppe.ufrj.br>
ioctl interface to select video format , NTSC, PAL, etc...
in a P6 SMP system. Some MB bios'es don't set the registers up correctly
for the AP's. Additionally, set the memory between 0xa0000 and 0xbffff
as write combining.
much like the scancode mode.
However the keys that (for no good reason) returns extension codes
etc, are translated into singlebyte codes.
Needed by libvgl. This makes life ALOT easier, also the XFree86
folks could use this.

Implement a function is_adapter_memory() in order to determine what
should nto be dumped at all. Currently, only populated with the ``ISA
memory hole''. Adapter regions of other busses should be added.
holding CPU along with the lock. When a CPU fails to get the lock
it compares its own id to the holder id. If they are the same it
panic()s, as simple locks are binary, and this would cause a deadlock.
Controlled by smptests.h: SL_DEBUG, ON by default.
Some minor cleanup.
Add a simplelock to deal with disable_intr()/enable_intr() as used in UP kernel.
UP kernel expects that this is enough to guarantee exclusive access to
regions of code bracketed by these 2 functions.
Add a simplelock to bracket clock accesses in clock.c: clock_lock.

smp_active = 1 used to indicate that the system had frozen previously
started AP's, while smp_active = 0 was "AP's not yet started". I have split
this into smp_started (which is set when the AP's come online), and
smp_active is left for turning on/off AP scheduling.
- We now have enough per-cpu idle context, the real idle loop has been
revived (cpu's halt now with nothing to do).
- Some preliminary support for running some operations outside the
global lock (eg: zeroing "free but not yet zeroed pages") is present
but appears to cause problems. Off by default.
- the smp_active sysctl now behaves differently. It's merely a 'true/false'
option. Setting smp_active to zero causes the AP's to halt in the idle
loop and stop scheduling processes.
- bootstrap is a lot safer. Instead of sharing a statically compiled in
stack a number of times (which has caused lots of problems) and then
abandoning it, we use the idle context to boot the AP's directly. This
should help >2 cpu support since the bootlock stuff was in doubt.
- print physical apic id in traps.. helps identify private pages getting
out of sync. (You don't want to know how much hair I tore out with this!)
More cleanup to follow, this is more of a checkpoint than a
'finished' thing.
Added a new variable, 'bsp_apic_ready', which is set as soon as the bootstrap
CPU has initialized its local APIC. Conditionalize the GENSPLR functions
to call ss_lock ONLY after bsp_apic_ready is TRUE; This should prevent
any problems with races between the time the 1st AP becomes ready and the
time smp_active is set.
region protected by the simplelock 'cpl_lock'.
Notes:
- this code is currently controlled on a section by section basis with
defines in machine/param.h. All sections are currently enabled.
- this code is not as clean as I would like, but that can wait till later.
- the "giant lock" still surrounds most instances of this "cpl region".
I still have to do the code that arbitrates setting cpl between the
top and bottom halves of the kernel.
- the possibility of deadlock exists, I am committing the code at this
point so as to exercise it and detect any such cases B4 the "giant lock"
is removed.
Made NEW_STRATEGY default.
Removed misc. old cruft.
Centralized simple locks into mp_machdep.c
Centralized simple lock macros into param.h
More cleanup in the direction of making splxx()/cpl MP-safe.
Several new fine-grained locks.
New FAST_INTR() methods:
- separate simplelock for FAST_INTR, no more giant lock.
- FAST_INTR()s no longer checks ipending on way out of ISR.
sio made MP-safe (I hope).
