"time" wasn't a atomic variable, so splfoo() protection were needed
around any access to it, unless you just wanted the seconds part.
Most uses of time.tv_sec now uses the new variable time_second instead.
gettime() changed to getmicrotime(0.
Remove a couple of unneeded splfoo() protections, the new getmicrotime()
is atomic, (until Bruce sets a breakpoint in it).
A couple of places needed random data, so use read_random() instead
of mucking about with time which isn't random.
Add a new nfs_curusec() function.
Mark a couple of bogosities involving the now disappeard time variable.
Update ffs_update() to avoid the weird "== &time" checks, by fixing the
one remaining call that passwd &time as args.
Change profiling in ncr.c to use ticks instead of time. Resolution is
the same.
Add new function "tvtohz()" to avoid the bogus "splfoo(), add time, call
hzto() which subtracts time" sequences.

They are atomic, but return in essence what is in the "time" variable.
gettime() is now a macro front for getmicrotime().
Various patches to use the two new functions instead of the various
hacks used in their absence.
Some puntuation and grammer patches from Bruce.
A couple of XXX comments.
Highlights:
* Simple model for underlying hardware.
* Hardware basis for timekeeping can be changed on the fly.
* Only one hardware clock responsible for TOD keeping.
* Provides a real nanotime() function.
* Time granularity: .232E-18 seconds.
* Frequency granularity: .238E-12 s/s
* Frequency adjustment is continuous in time.
* Less overhead for frequency adjustment.
* Improves xntpd performance.

This patch was slightly modified to use a consistant indent style and
I removed some unused local variables. After this has been tested a
few weeks we'll make the options the default, so for now I'm now
documenting it in LINT. Mike can later if he wants.

hash chain traversal isn't needed. This also allows untimeout to recompute
the hash to find the bucket that the entry to remove is stored in so
that each callout entry no longer needs to store that information.

Add support for "interrupt driven configuration hooks".
A component of the kernel can register a hook, most likely
during auto-configuration, and receive a callback once
interrupt services are available. This callback will occur before
the root and dump devices are configured, so the configuration
task can affect the selection of those two devices or complete
any tasks that need to be performed prior to launching init.
System boot is posponed so long as a hook is registered. The
hook owner is responsible for removing the hook once their task
is complete or the system boot can continue.
kern_acct.c kern_clock.c kern_exit.c kern_synch.c kern_time.c:
Change the interface and implementation for the kernel callout
service. The new implemntaion is based on the work of
Adam M. Costello and George Varghese, published in a technical
report entitled "Redesigning the BSD Callout and Timer Facilities".
The interface used in FreeBSD is a little different than the one
outlined in the paper. The new function prototypes are:
struct callout_handle timeout(void (*func)(void *),
void *arg, int ticks);
void untimeout(void (*func)(void *), void *arg,
struct callout_handle handle);
If a client wishes to remove a timeout, it must store the
callout_handle returned by timeout and pass it to untimeout.
The new implementation gives 0(1) insert and removal of callouts
making this interface scale well even for applications that
keep 100s of callouts outstanding.
See the updated timeout.9 man page for more details.
There are various options documented in i386/conf/LINT, there is more to
come over the next few days.
The kernel should run pretty much "as before" without the options to
activate SMP mode.
There are a handful of known "loose ends" that need to be fixed, but
have been put off since the SMP kernel is in a moderately good condition
at the moment.
This commit is the result of the tinkering and testing over the last 14
months by many people. A special thanks to Steve Passe for implementing

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
I decided to do this for every hardclock() call instead of lazily
in microtime(). The lazy method is simpler but has more overhead
if microtime() is called a lot.
CPU_THISTICKLEN() is now a no-op and should probably go away.
Previously it did nothing directly but had the side effect of
setting i586_last_tick for CPU_CLOCKUPDATE() and i586_avg_tick for
debugging. CPU_CLOCKUPDATE() now uses a better method and
i586_avg_tick is too much trouble to maintain.
Reduced nesting of #includes in the usual case.
Increased nesting of #includes when CLOCK_HAIR is defined. This
is a kludge to get typedefs for inline functions only when the
inline functions are used. Normally only kern_clock.c defines
this. kern_clock.c can't include the i386 headers directly.
Removed unused LOCORE support.
Unstaticize a function in scsi/scsi_base that was used, with an undocumented
option.

Move a lot of variables home to their own code (In good time before xmas :-)
Introduce the string descrition of format.
Add a couple more functions to poke into these marvels, while I try to
decide what the correct interface should look like.
Next is adding vars on the fly, and sysctl looking at them too.
Removed a tine bit of defunct and #ifdefed notused code in swapgeneric.

Now we can read and write from any kind of address-space, not only

This may be over-generalization for now, but it's actually simpler.

This is a composite of 3 patch sets submitted by terry.
they are:
New low-level init code that supports loadbal modules better
some cleanups in the namei code to help terry in 16-bit character support
some changes to the mount-root code to make it a little more
modular..
NOTE: mounting root off cdrom or NFS MIGHT be broken as I haven't been able
to test those cases..
certainly mounting root of disk still works just fine..
mfs should work but is untested. (tomorrows task)
The low level init stuff includes a total rewrite of init_main.c
to make it possible for new modules to have an init phase by simply
adding an entry to a TEXT_SET (or is it DATA_SET) list. thus a new module can
be added to the kernel without editing any other files other than the
'files' file.
Improve hzto():
Round up instead of down and then add 1 tick. This fixes sleep(1)
sometimes sleeping for < 1 second and usleep(10000) sometimes sleeping
for as little as 1 usec + syscall time.
Don't do all the calculations at splhigh().
Don't depend on `tick' being a multiple of 1000.
Don't lose accuracy for `sec' between 0x7fffffff / 1000 - 1000 and
0x7fffffff / hz.
Don't assume that longs are 32 bits or that ints have the same size as
longs.
cycles. While waiting there I added a lot of the extra ()'s I have, (I have
never used LISP to any extent). So I compiled the kernel with -Wall and
shut up a lot of "suggest you add ()'s", removed a bunch of unused var's
and added a couple of declarations here and there. Having a lap-top is
highly recommended. My kernel still runs, yell at me if you kernel breaks.
This code is mostly taken from the 1.1 port (which was in turn taken from
Dave Mills's kern.tar.Z example). A few significant differences:
1) ntp_gettime() is now a MIB variable rather than a system call. A few
fiddles are done in libc to make it behave the same.
2) mono_time does not participate in the PLL adjustments.
3) A new interface has been defined (in <machine/clock.h>) for doing
possibly machine-dependent things around the time of the clock update.
This is used in Pentium kernels to disable interrupts, set `time', and
reset the CPU cycle counter as quickly as possible to avoid jitter in
microtime(). Measurements show an apparent resolution of a bit more than
8.14usec, which is reasonable given system-call overhead.
in your kernel config now).
2) Added ps ddb function from 1.1.5. Cleaned it up a bit and moved into its
own file.
3) Added \r handing in db_printf.
4) Added missing memory usage stats to statclock().
5) Added dummy function to pseudo_set so it will be emitted if there
are no other pseudo declarations.
- Delete redundant declarations.
- Add -Wredundant-declarations to Makefile.i386 so they don't come back.
- Delete sloppy COMMON-style declarations of uninitialized data in
header files.
- Add a few prototypes.
- Clean up warnings resulting from the above.
NB: ioconf.c will still generate a redundant-declaration warning, which
is unavoidable unless somebody volunteers to make `config' smarter.
