looking at a high resolution clock for each of the following events:
function call, function return, interrupt entry, interrupt exit,
and interesting branches. The differences between the times of
these events are added at appropriate places in a ordinary histogram
(as if very fast statistical profiling sampled the pc at those
places) so that ordinary gprof can be used to analyze the times.
gmon.h:
Histogram counters need to be 4 bytes for microsecond resolutions.
They will need to be larger for the 586 clock.
The comments were vax-centric and wrong even on vaxes. Does anyone
disagree?
gprof4.c:
The standard gprof should support counters of all integral sizes
and the size of the counter should be in the gmon header. This
hack will do until then. (Use gprof4 -u to examine the results
of non-statistical profiling.)
config/*:
Non-statistical profiling is configured with `config -pp'.
`config -p' still gives ordinary profiling.
kgmon/*:
Non-statistical profiling is enabled with `kgmon -B'. `kgmon -b'
still enables ordinary profiling (and distables non-statistical
profiling) if non-statistical profiling is configured.

Removed some old cruft from cpufunc.h.

bcopy:
Be smarter about handling overlapped copies and only go backwards if it
is really necessary. Going backwards on a P6 is much slower than forwards
and it's a little slower on a P5. Also moved the count mask and 'std'
down a few lines - it's a couple percent faster this way on a P5.
libkern.a are now specified by listing their source files in
files.${MACHINE}. The list is machine-dependent to save space.
All the necessary object for each machine must be linked into the
kernel in case an lkm wants one.
feature of the ICU. auto-EOI on the slave is not safe, however, so it
remains an option. Killed religious FASTER_NOP when writing the ICU.

wasteful, but better than clobbering the variables below the stack.
About 300 bytes of variables were clobbered when I examined double
faults using ddb. Perhaps a page that is known not to be accessed by
the double fault handler could be used. Such pages are not easy to
find, since the double fault handler calls panic() which calls sync()
and possibly dumpsys().
about decoding trap/syscall/interrupt frames and generally works better
than the previous stuff.
Removed some special (incorrect) frobbing of the frame pointer that
was messing some things up with the new traceback code.
overflows.
It sure would be nice if there was an unmapped page between the PCB and
the stack (and that the size of the stack was configurable!). With the
way things are now, the PCB will get clobbered before the double fault
handler gets control, making somewhat of a mess of things. Despite this,
it is still fairly easy to poke around in the overflowed stack to figure
out the cause.
#includes to get prototypes.
pci now uses a different interrupt handler type for interrupts that it
dispatches and the isa interrupt handler type for the interrupts that
it handles.
LINT: add a couple of new/missing/undocumented options
files.i386: add linux code so that you can compile a kernel with static
linux emulation ("options LINUX")
i386/*: use #if defined(COMPAT_LINUX) || defined(LINUX) to enable static
support of linux emulation (just like "IBCS2" makes ibcs2 static)
The main thing this is going to make obvious, is that the LINUX code
(when compiled from LINT) has a lot of warnings, some of which dont look
too pleasant..
seems to work hre just fine though I can't check every file
that changed due to limmited h/w, however I've checked enught to be petty
happy withe hte code..
WARNING... struct lkm[mumble] has changed
so it might be an idea to recompile any lkm related programs
can be found in ISA compatibility mode by the ISA driver, but since the
EISA and PCI probes are non-invasive, we prefer them to find the card first.
Since both EISA and PCI probes can rely on interrupts, enable them before
probing of any type is performed. All ISA probes are still "protected" by
splhigh().
allow one EISA/ISA/PCI/VL Buslogic controller to be probed. The driver
is almost fully dynamic. It just needs some kdc work and for the SCSI code
to stop passing unit numbers up in the scsi_xfer struct.
Removed old aliases d_rdwr_t and d_ttycv_t for d_read_t/d_write_t and
d_devtotty_t.
Sorted declarations of switch functions into switch order.
Removed duplicated comments and declarations of nonexistent switch
functions.
most devsw referenced functions are now static, as they are
in the same file as their devsw structure. I've also added DEVFS
support for nearly every device in the system, however
many of the devices have 'incorrect' names under DEVFS
because I couldn't quickly work out the correct naming conventions.
(but devfs won't be coming on line for a month or so anyhow so that doesn't
matter)
If you "OWN" a device which would normally have an entry in /dev
then search for the devfs_add_devsw() entries and munge to make them right..
check out similar devices to see what I might have done in them in you
can't see what's going on..
for a laugh compare conf.c conf.h defore and after... :)
I have not doen DEVFS entries for any DISKSLICE devices yet as that will be
a much more complicated job.. (pass 5 :)
pass 4 will be to make the devsw tables of type (cdevsw * )
rather than (cdevsw)
seems to work here..
complaints to the usual places.. :)
