registers are control bits or depending on the model contain additional
time bits with a different meaning than the lower ones. In order to
only read the desired time bits and not change the upper bits on write
use appropriate masks in the gettime and settime function respectively.
Due to the polarity of the stop oscillator bit and the fact that the
century bits aren't used on sparc64 not masking them didn't cause
problems so far.
- Fix two off-by-one errors in the handling of the day of week. The
genclock code represents the dow as 0 - 6 with 0 being Sunday but the
mk48txx use 1 - 7 with 1 being Sunday. In the settime function when
writing the dow to the clock the range wasn't adjusted accordingly but
the clock apparently played along nicely otherwise the second bug in
the gettime function which mapped 1 - 7 to 0 - 6 but with 0 meaning
Saturday would have been triggered. Fixing these makes the date being
stored in the same format Sun/Solaris uses and cures the "Invalid time
in real time clock. Check and reset the date immediately!" when the
date was set under Solaris prior to booting FreeBSD/sparc64. [1]
Looking at other clock drivers/code e.g. FreeBSD/alpha the former "bug",
i.e. storing the dow as 0 - 6 even when the clock uses 1 - 7, seems to
be common but might be on purpose for compatibility when multi-booting
with other OS which do the same. So it might make sense to add a flag
to handle the dow off-by-one for use of this driver on platforms other
than sparc64.
- Check the state of the battery on mk48txx that support this in the
attach function.
- Add a note that use of the century bit should be implemented but isn't
required at the moment because it isn't used on sparc64.

MT5 candidate.
the page table page's wired count rather than its hold count to contain
the reference count. My rationale for this change is based on several
factors:
1. The machine-independent and pmap layers used the same hold count field
in subtly different ways. The machine-independent layer uses the hold
count to implement a form of ephemeral wiring that is used by pipes,
physio, etc. In other words, subsystems where we wish to temporarily
block a page from being swapped out while it is mapped into the kernel's
address space. Such pages are never removed from the page queues.
Instead, the page daemon recognizes a non-zero hold count to mean "hands
off this page." In contrast, page table pages are never in the page
queues; they are wired from birth to death. The hold count was being
used as a kind of reference count, specifically, the number of valid
page table entries within the page. Not surprisingly, these two
different uses imply different synchronization rules: in the machine-
independent layer access to the hold count requires the page queues
lock; whereas in the pmap layer the pmap lock is required. Thus,
continued use by the pmap layer of vm_page_unhold(), which asserts that
the page queues lock is held, made no sense.
2. _pmap_unwire_pte_hold() was too forgiving in its handling of the wired
count. An unexpected wired count on a page table page was ignored and
the underlying page leaked.
3. In a word, microoptimization. Using the wired count exclusively, rather
than a combination of the wired and hold counts, makes the code slightly
smaller and faster.

too much kernel copying, but it is not the right way to do it, and it is
in the way for straightening out the buffer cache.
The right way is to pass the VM page array down through the struct
bio to the disk device driver and DMA directly in to/out off the
physical memory. Once the VM/buf thing is sorted out it is next on
the list.
Retire most of vnode method. ffs_getpages(). It is not clear if what is
left shouldn't be in the default implementation which we now fall back to.
Retire specfs_getpages() as well, as it has no users now.
Completely remove the remaining EFI includes and add our own (type)
definitions instead. While here, abstract more of the internals by
providing interface functions.
Analogous to the drive level, give each volume and plex a worker thread
that picks up and processes incoming and completed BIOs.
This should fix the data corruption issues that have come up a few
weeks ago and improve performance, especially of RAID5 plexes.
The volume level needs a little work, though.
to 4.0 and RELENG_3), the BTX mini-kernel used paging rather than flat
mode and clients were limited to a virtual address space of 16 megabytes.
Because of this limitation, boot2 silently masked all physical addresses
in any binaries it loaded so that they were always loaded into the first
16 Meg. Since BTX no longer has this limitation (and hasn't for a long
time), remove the masking from boot2. This allows boot2 to load kernels
larger than about 12 to 14 meg (12 for non-PAE, 14 for PAE).

o dmacnt is no longer used now that we allocate at attach time. Remove
it from struct fdc_data.
o ISPNP was only ever set, but never tested. It used to be used for the
allocation routines to change how it allocated resources. Since that's
no longer necessary, retire the flag.
o ISPCMICA was only ever tested, but never set. GC it. This removes
a special case in determining the drive type. The drive type is
now set in fdc_pcmcia.c, so the hack isn't needed anymore. Sadly,
this isn't tested with a Y-E Data pcmcia floppy drive because there
are a number of other issues that preclude it from working.
o Fix ifdef for reading from the rtc. I'm of the opinion that this ifdef
should be moved into fdc_isa.c, but not today as ideally there'd be
other fixes to the probing of children. So now we just read it on
i386 ! pc98 (there's no #define for MACHINE_ARCH, just MACHINE, hence
this slightly inelegant kludge) and amd64. The PC98 exclusion likely
isn't meaningful since pc98 uses a different driver, but will be when
merging of the pc98 floppy code into this driver is complete (this is the
other reason I think this block of code belongs outside fdc.c).
All of these changes are safe to MT5.
