work properly with single-stepping in a kernel debugger. Specifically,
these routines have always disabled interrupts before increasing the nesting
count and restored the prior state of interrupts after decreasing the nesting
count to avoid problems with a nested interrupt not disabling interrupts
when acquiring a spin lock. However, trap interrupts for single-stepping
can still occur even when interrupts are disabled. Now the saved state of
interrupts is not saved in the thread until after interrupts have been
disabled and the nesting count has been increased. Similarly, the saved
state from the thread cannot be read once the nesting count has been
decreased to zero. To fix this, use temporary variables to store interrupt
state and shuffle it between the thread's MD area and the appropriate
registers.

- Each cpu now has a PCPU_GET(domain) member to indicate the memory domain
a CPU belongs to. Domain values are dense and numbered from 0.
- When a platform supports multiple domains, the default freelist
(VM_FREELIST_DEFAULT) is split up into N freelists, one for each domain.
The MD code is required to populate an array of mem_affinity structures.
Each entry in the array defines a range of memory (start and end) and a
domain for the range. Multiple entries may be present for a single
domain. The list is terminated by an entry where all fields are zero.
This array of structures is used to split up phys_avail[] regions that
fall in VM_FREELIST_DEFAULT into per-domain freelists.
- Each memory domain has a separate lookup-array of freelists that is
used when fulfulling a physical memory allocation. Right now the
per-domain freelists are listed in a round-robin order for each domain.
In the future a table such as the ACPI SLIT table may be used to order

side-effect of purging more than the requested translation. While
this is not a problem in general, it invalidates the assumption made
during constructing the trapframe on entry into the kernel in SMP
configurations. The assumption is that only the first store to the
stack will possibly cause a TLB miss. Since the ptc.g purges the
translation caches of all CPUs in the coherency domain, a ptc.g
executed on one CPU can cause a purge on another CPU that is
currently running the critical code that saves the state to the
trapframe. This can cause an unexpected TLB miss and with interrupt
collection disabled this means an unexpected data nested TLB fault.
A data nested TLB fault will not save any context, nor provide a
way for software to determine what caused the TLB miss nor where
it occured. Careful construction of the kernel entry and exit code
allows us to handle a TLB miss in precisely orchastrated points
and thereby avoiding the need to wire the kernel stack, but the
unexpected TLB miss caused by the ptc.g instructution resulted in
an unrecoverable condition and resulting in machine checks.
The solution to this problem is to synchronize the kernel entry
on all CPUs with the use of the ptc.g instruction on a single CPU
by implementing a bare-bones readers-writer lock that allows N
readers (= N CPUs entering the kernel) and 1 writer (= execution
of the ptc.g instruction on some CPU). This solution wins over
a rendez-vous approach by not interrupting CPUs with an IPI.

pmap_ts_referenced() is not always appropriate for checking whether or
not pages have been referenced because it clears any reference bits
that it encounters. For example, in mincore(), clearing the reference
bits has two negative consequences. First, it throws off the activity
count calculations performed by the page daemon. Specifically, a page
on which mincore() has called pmap_ts_referenced() looks less active
to the page daemon than it should. Consequently, the page could be
deactivated prematurely by the page daemon. Arguably, this problem
could be fixed by having mincore() duplicate the activity count
calculation on the page. However, there is a second problem for which
that is not a solution. In order to clear a reference on a 4KB page,
it may be necessary to demote a 2/4MB page mapping. Thus, a mincore()
by one process can have the side effect of demoting a superpage
mapping within another process!

o Optimize for memory mapped I/O by making all I/O port acceses function
calls and marking the test for the IA64_BUS_SPACE_IO tag with
__predict_false(). Implement the I/O port access functions in a new
file, called bus_machdep.c.
o Change the bus_space_handle_t for memory mapped I/O to the virtual
address rather than the physical address. This eliminates the PA->VA
translation for every I/O access. The handle for I/O port access is
still the port number.
o Move inb(), outb(), inw(), outw(), inl(), outl(), and their string
variants from cpufunc.h and define them in bus.h. On ia64 these are
not CPU functions at all. In bus.h they are merely aliases for the
new I/O port access functions defined in bus_machdep.h.
o Handle the ACPI resource bug in nexus_set_resource(). There we can
do it once so that we don't have to worry about it whenever we need
to write to an I/O port that is really a memory mapped address.
The upshot of this change is that the KBI is better defined and that I/O
port access always involves a function call, allowing us to change the
actual implementation without breaking the KBI. For memory mapped I/O the
virtual address is abstracted, so that we can change the VA->PA mapping
in the kernel without causing an KBI breakage. The exception at this time
is for bus_space_map() and bus_space_unmap().

This replaces d_mmap() with the d_mmap2() implementation and also
changes the type of offset to vm_ooffset_t.
Purge d_mmap2().
All driver modules will need to be rebuilt since D_VERSION is also

The frequencies are in MHz (i.e. a value of 1000 represents 1GHz). The
frequencies are rounded to the nearest whole MHz.
While here, rename and re-type bus_frequency, processor_frequency and
itc_frequency to bus_freq, cpu_freq and itc_freq and make them static.
As unsigned integers, the hw.freq.cpu sysctl can more easily be made
generic (across all architectures) making porting easier.

pcpu_stats to pcpu_md.
Adjust all references accordingly.
While nearby, change the PCPU sysctl tree so that they match the CPU
device sysctl tree -- they are now children of a static node called
"machdep.cpu" and are named only with their cpu ID.
allocating MAXCPU VHPTs up-front. This allows us to max-out MAXCPU
without memory waste -- MAXCPU is now 32 for SMP kernels.
This change also eliminates the VHPT scaling based in the total
memory in the system. It's the workload that determines the best size
of the VHPT. The workload can be affected by the amount of memory,
but not necessarily. For example, there's no performance difference
between VHPT sizes of 256KB, 512KB and 1MB when building the LINT
kernel. This was observed with a system that has 8GB of memory.
By default the kernel will allocate a 1MB VHPT. The user can tune the
system with the "machdep.vhpt.log2size" tunable.
Memory accesses are posted in program order by virtue of the
uncacheable memory attribute.
Since GCC, by default, adds acquire and release semantics to
volatile memory loads and stores, we need to use inline assembly
to guarantee it. With inline assembly, we don't need volatile
pointers anymore.
Itanium does not support semaphore instructions to uncacheable
memory.
adding statistics counters to the PCPU structure. Export the counters
through sysctl by giving each PCPU structure its own sysctl context.
While here, fix cnt.v_intr by not just having it count clock interrupts,
but every interrupt and add more counters for each interrupt source.
the kernel stack at all. The new USB stack simply caused a change
in timing that triggered a firmware bug more often. The addition
of PRINTF_BUFR_SIZE apparently triggered the same firmware bug
even more reliably.
But even with KSTACK_PAGES=5, one instance of the firmware bug
remained: booting with a CD inserted. This problem was run into
by accident after installing Debian and having to boot FreeBSD
to fixup the GPT partitioning (Thanks... not). After bumping
KSTACK_PAGES to 5, it was pretty unbelievable that the stack was
still being too small.
After updating the firmware we could boot with a CD inserted and
KSTACK_PAGES could be lowered back to 4 pages without problems.
Note: It is believed to be a timing related firmware bug, because
the machine check information showed access to the serial console
on one CPU and access to the EHCI HCD on the other CPU. Since
both are devices on the management unit and thus virtualized in
some way, any execution trace that does not include concurrent
access to the BMC from both CPUs is fine.
Note also that it's not understood exactly how increasing the
kernel stack avoided hitting the firmware bug. A change in page
faults does change timing, but it's not known if that's what's
happening here.
In any case: the problem is being monitored. Reverting back to
4 pages for the kernel stack is preferred, because it makes it
easier to switch to 16K pages (double the page size) without
wasting too much memory by not being able to half the number of
pages...
to panic when we have an unexpected TLB fault while interrupt
collection is disabled. Use a token rather than the actual address
of the restart point to avoid the need for the movl instruction.
The token is arbitrary. For the drummers: it's based on a single
paradiddle.
