support this, we do have MI code that references it and is otherwise
unaware of an override. The alternative is to put knowledge in these
MI files about which platforms have the opt_kstack_pages.h option file.
It is more likely that other platforms will gain the ability to tune the
kstack size.
to userland in the signal handler that were not being iflled out before, but
should and can be.
This part of sendsig could be slightly refactored to use an MI interface, or
ideally, *sendsig*() would have an API change to accept a siginfo_t, which
would be filled out by an MI function in the level above sendsig, and said MI
function would make a small call into MD code to fill out the MD parts (some
of which may be bogus, such as the si_addr stuff in some places). This would
eventually make it possible for parts of the kernel sending signals to set up
a siginfo with meaningful information.

- add dependencies on opt_cpu.h and opt_kstack_pages.h to the linux module
Makefile in the i386 case. The latter is needed by an i386-only file, the
former by the i386 implementation of linux_sysvec.c (opt_cpu.h is used for
architecture-dependent options, so I added it only for i386, although this
file is also generated for the alpha).
- add a dependency on opt_kstack_pages.h to the pecoff module Makefile.
if compiling with I686_CPU as a target. CPU_DISABLE_SSE will prevent
this from happening and will guarantee the code is not compiled in.
I am still not happy with this, but gcc is now generating code that uses
these instructions if you set CPUTYPE to p3/p4 or athlon-4/mp/xp or higher.
route interrupts if the child bus is described in the PCIBIOS interrupt
routing table. For child busses that are in the routing table, they do
not necessarily use a 'swizzle' on their pins on the parent bus to route
interrupts for child devices. If the child bus is an embedded device then
the pins on the child devices can be (and usually are) directly connected
either to a PIC or to a Interrupt Router. This fixes PCIBIOS interrupt
routing across PCI-PCI bridges for embedded devices.
IRQ for an entry in a PCIBIOS interrupt routing ($PIR) table.
- Change pci_cfgintr() to except the current IRQ of a device as a fourth
argument and to use that IRQ for the device if it is valid.
- If an intpin entry in a $PIR entry has a link of 0, it means that that
intpin isn't connected to anything that can trigger an interrupt. Thus,
test the link against 0 to find invalid entries in the table instead of
implicitly relying on the irqs field to be zero. In the machines I have
looked at, intpin entries with a link of 0 often have the bits for all
possible interrupts for PCI devices set.
any machine dependent initialization. This allows the MD code to set the
interrupt routing model so that PCI interrupts are routed correctly when
using an APIC or SAPIC for example.
ev6 or pca56 etc this downgrades the cpu specification passed to gas.
As a result, gas will fail when gcc generates media instructions (in
uipc_usrreq.c). This only affects what gas will accept, not what gcc
generates or what our *.s file contain.
The process allocator now caches and hands out complete process structures
*including substructures* .
i.e. it get's the process structure with the first thread (and soon KSE)
already allocated and attached, all in one hit.
For the average non threaded program (non KSE that is) the allocated thread and its stack remain attached to the process, even when the process is
unused and in the process cache. This saves having to allocate and attach it
later, effectively bringing us (hopefully) close to the efficiency
of pre-KSE systems where these were a single structure.
