type of software interrupt. Roughly, what used to be a bit in spending
now maps to a swi thread. Each thread can have multiple handlers, just
like a hardware interrupt thread.
- Instead of using a bitmask of pending interrupts, we schedule the specific
software interrupt thread to run, so spending, NSWI, and the shandlers
array are no longer needed. We can now have an arbitrary number of
software interrupt threads. When you register a software interrupt
thread via sinthand_add(), you get back a struct intrhand that you pass
to sched_swi() when you wish to schedule your swi thread to run.
- Convert the name of 'struct intrec' to 'struct intrhand' as it is a bit
more intuitive. Also, prefix all the members of struct intrhand with
'ih_'.
- Make swi_net() a MI function since there is now no point in it being
MD.

return through doreti to handle ast's. This is necessary for the
clock interrupts to work properly.
- Change the clock interrupts on the x86 to be fast instead of threaded.
This is needed because both hardclock() and statclock() need to run in
the context of the current process, not in a separate thread context.
- Kill the prevproc hack as it is no longer needed.
- We really need Giant when we call psignal(), but we don't want to block
during the clock interrupt. Instead, use two p_flag's in the proc struct
to mark the current process as having a pending SIGVTALRM or a SIGPROF
and let them be delivered during ast() when hardclock() has finished
running.
- Remove CLKF_BASEPRI, which was #ifdef'd out on the x86 anyways. It was
broken on the x86 if it was turned on since cpl is gone. It's only use
was to bogusly run softclock() directly during hardclock() rather than
scheduling an SWI.
- Remove the COM_LOCK simplelock and replace it with a clock_lock spin
mutex. Since the spin mutex already handles disabling/restoring
interrupts appropriately, this also lets us axe all the *_intr() fu.
- Back out the hacks in the APIC_IO x86 cpu_initclocks() code to use
temporary fast interrupts for the APIC trial.
- Add two new process flags P_ALRMPEND and P_PROFPEND to mark the pending
signals in hardclock() that are to be delivered in ast().

- Make softinterrupts (SWI's) almost completely MI, and divorce them
completely from the x86 hardware interrupt code.
- The ihandlers array is now gone. Instead, there is a MI shandlers array
that just contains SWI handlers.

- Don't create 'ithd' and 'intrec' typedefs, instead, just use 'struct ithd'

- Move the code to translate new-bus interrupt flags into an interrupt thread

don't take an arg, but swi_generic() is special in order to avoid one
whole conditional branch in the old SWI dispatch code. The new SWI
dispatch code passed it a garbage arg. Bypass swi_generic() and call
swi_dispatcher() directly, like the corresponding alpha code has always
done.
The panic was rare because because it only occurred if more than one
of the {sio,cy,rc} drivers was configured and one was active, and the
cy driver doesn't even compile.

* Mutual exclusion is used instead of spl*(). See mutex(9). (Note: The
alpha port is still in transition and currently uses both.)
* Per-CPU idle processes.
* Interrupts are run in their own separate kernel threads and can be
preempted (i386 only).

that was a bit too drastic for my liking.

(1) Accesses to the RTC index and data registers were not atomic enough.
Interrupts were not masked. This was only good enough until an
interrupt handler (rtcintr()) started accessing the RTC in FreeBSD-2.0.
(2) Access to the block of time registers in inittodr() was not atomic
enough. inittodr() has 244us to read the time registers. Interrupts
were not masked. This was only good enough until something (apm)
started calling inittodr() after boot time in FreeBSD-2.0.
The fix for (2) also makes the timecounter update more atomic, although
this is currently unimportant due to the low resolution of the RTC.
