John Baldwin ecee5704ed New device interrupt code. This defines an interrupt source abstraction
that provides methods via a PIC driver to do things like mask a source,
unmask a source, enable it when the first interrupt handler is added, etc.
The interrupt code provides a table of interrupt sources indexed by IRQ
numbers, or vectors.  These vectors are what new-bus uses for its IRQ
resources and for bus_setup_intr()/bus_teardown_intr().  The interrupt
code then maps that vector a given interrupt source object.  When an
interrupt comes in, the low-level interrupt code looks up the interrupt
source for the source that triggered the interrupt and hands it off to
this code to execute the appropriate handlers.

By having an interrupt source abstraction, this allows us to have different
types of interrupt source providers within the shared IRQ address space.
For example, IRQ 0 may map to pin 0 of the master 8259A PIC, IRQs 1
through 60 may map to pins on various I/O APICs, and IRQs 120 through
128 may map to MSI interrupts for various PCI devices.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
