because they bogusly check for defined(INTR_MPSAFE) -- something which
never was a #define. Correct the definitions.
This make INTR_TYPE_AV finally get used instead of the lower-priority
INTR_TYPE_TTY, so it's quite possible some improvement will be had
on sound driver performance. It would also make all the drivers
marked INTR_MPSAFE actually run without Giant (which does seem to
work for me), but:
INTR_MPSAFE HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM EVERY SOUND DRIVER!
It needs to be re-added on a case-by-case basis since there is no one
who will vouch for which sound drivers, if any, willy actually operate
correctly without Giant, since there hasn't been testing because of
this bug disabling INTR_MPSAFE.

attempting to duplicate Windows spinlocks. Windows spinlocks differ
from FreeBSD spinlocks in the way they block preemption. FreeBSD
spinlocks use critical_enter(), which masks off _all_ interrupts.
This prevents any other threads from being scheduled, but it also
prevents ISRs from running. In Windows, preemption is achieved by
raising the processor IRQL to DISPATCH_LEVEL, which prevents other
threads from preempting you, but does _not_ prevent device ISRs
from running. (This is essentially what Solaris calls dispatcher
locks.) The Windows spinlock itself (kspin_lock) is just an integer
value which is atomically set when you acquire the lock and atomically
cleared when you release it.
FreeBSD doesn't have IRQ levels, so we have to cheat a little by
using thread priorities: normal thread priority is PASSIVE_LEVEL,
lowest interrupt thread priority is DISPATCH_LEVEL, highest thread
priority is DEVICE_LEVEL (PI_REALTIME) and critical_enter() is
HIGH_LEVEL. In practice, only PASSIVE_LEVEL and DISPATCH_LEVEL
matter to us. The immediate benefit of all this is that I no
longer have to rely on a mutex pool.
Now, I'm sure many people will be seized by the urge to criticize
me for doing an end run around our own spinlock implementation, but
it makes more sense to do it this way. Well, it does to me anyway.
Overview of the changes:
- Properly implement hal_lock(), hal_unlock(), hal_irql(),
hal_raise_irql() and hal_lower_irql() so that they more closely
resemble their Windows counterparts. The IRQL is determined by
thread priority.
- Make ntoskrnl_lock_dpc() and ntoskrnl_unlock_dpc() do what they do
in Windows, which is to atomically set/clear the lock value. These
routines are designed to be called from DISPATCH_LEVEL, and are
actually half of the work involved in acquiring/releasing spinlocks.
- Add FASTCALL1(), FASTCALL2() and FASTCALL3() macros/wrappers
that allow us to call a _fastcall function in spite of the fact
that our version of gcc doesn't support __attribute__((__fastcall__))
yet. The macros take 1, 2 or 3 arguments, respectively. We need
to call hal_lock(), hal_unlock() etc... ourselves, but can't really
invoke the function directly. I could have just made the underlying
functions native routines and put _fastcall wrappers around them for
the benefit of Windows binaries, but that would create needless bloat.
- Remove ndis_mtxpool and all references to it. We don't need it
anymore.
- Re-implement the NdisSpinLock routines so that they use hal_lock()
and friends like they do in Windows.
- Use the new spinlock methods for handling lookaside lists and
linked list updates in place of the mutex locks that were there
before.
- Remove mutex locking from ndis_isr() and ndis_intrhand() since they're
already called with ndis_intrmtx held in if_ndis.c.
- Put ndis_destroy_lock() code under explicit #ifdef notdef/#endif.
It turns out there are some drivers which stupidly free the memory
in which their spinlocks reside before calling ndis_destroy_lock()
on them (touch-after-free bug). The ADMtek wireless driver
is guilty of this faux pas. (Why this doesn't clobber Windows I
have no idea.)
- Make NdisDprAcquireSpinLock() and NdisDprReleaseSpinLock() into
real functions instead of aliasing them to NdisAcaquireSpinLock()
and NdisReleaseSpinLock(). The Dpr routines use
KeAcquireSpinLockAtDpcLevel() level and KeReleaseSpinLockFromDpcLevel(),
which acquires the lock without twiddling the IRQL.
- In ndis_linksts_done(), do _not_ call ndis_80211_getstate(). Some
drivers may call the status/status done callbacks as the result of
setting an OID: ndis_80211_getstate() gets OIDs, which means we
might cause the driver to recursively access some of its internal
structures unexpectedly. The ndis_ticktask() routine will call
ndis_80211_getstate() for us eventually anyway.
- Fix the channel setting code a little in ndis_80211_setstate(),
and initialize the channel to IEEE80211_CHAN_ANYC. (The Microsoft
spec says you're not supposed to twiddle the channel in BSS mode;
I may need to enforce this later.) This fixes the problems I was
having with the ADMtek adm8211 driver: we were setting the channel
to a non-standard default, which would cause it to fail to associate
in BSS mode.
- Use hal_raise_irql() to raise our IRQL to DISPATCH_LEVEL when
calling certain miniport routines, per the Microsoft documentation.
I think that's everything. Hopefully, other than fixing the ADMtek
driver, there should be no apparent change in behavior.

This is untested but seems to match the Linux Toshiba driver.

the sense that any write to them reads back as a 0. This presents a
problem to our resource allocation scheme. If we encounter such vars,
the code now treats them as special, allowing any allocation against
them to succeed. I've not seen anything in the standard to clearify
what host software should do when it encounters these sorts of BARs.
Also cleaned up some output while I'm here and add commmented out

controllers (PDC203** PDC206**).
This also adds preliminary support for the Promise SX4/SX4000 but *only*
as a "normal" Promise ATA controller (ATA RAID's are supported though
but only RAID0, RAID1 and RAID0+1).
This cuts off yet another 5-8% of the command overhead on promise controllers,
making them the fastest we have ever had support for.
Work is now continuing to add support for this in ATA RAID, to accellerate
ATA RAID quite a bit on these controllers, and especially the SX4/SX4000
series as they have quite a few tricks in there..
This commit also adds a few fixes to the SATA code needed for proper support.

(1) Align to 64k for the CIS. Some cards don't like it when we aren't
aligned to a 64k boundary. I can't find anything in the standard
that requires this, but I have 1/2 dozen cards that won't work at
all unless I enable this.
(2) Sleep 1s before scanning the CIS. This may be a nop, but has little
harm.
(3) The CIS can be up to 4k in some weird, odd-ball edge cases. Since we
have limiters for when that's not the case, it does no harm to increase
it to 4k.
