of the kernel address space already. Intel recommend this anyway, because
using a non-4GB limit adds an additional clock cycle to address generation.
We were able to install 4GB segments into the LDT, so any limits we imposed
on %cs and %ds were academic anyway. More importantly, this allows us to
make a page in the kernel readable to user applications, for holding things
like the signal trampoline and other fun things.
Move the user %cs/%ds segments from the LDT to the GDT. There was no good
reason for them to be there anyway. The old LDT entries are still there
but we can now relax the restriction that prevented users from emptying
the default LDT entries.
Putting user and kernel %cs and %ds together allows us to access the fast
sysenter/sysexit/syscall/sysret instructions. syscall/sysret in particular
require that the user/kernel segments be laid out this way. Reserve a slot
specifically for NDIS while here.
Create two user controllable slots in the GDT that are context switched
with the (kernel) thread. This allows user applications to set two
user privilige selectors to arbitary values. Create
i386_set_fsbase(void *base) and friends. (get/set, fs/gs). For i386,
%gs is used by tls and the thread libraries and this means that user
processes no longer have to have the cost of having a custom LDT, and
we will no longer to do a ldt switch when activating a kthread/ithread in
the usual case any more.
In other words, we can now set the base address for %fs and %gs to arbitary
addresses without the pain of messing with ldt segments.
of the __pcb_spare longs. Except that fields were changed and one of the
spare values was used and the __pcb_spare field was reduced from two to one
long. Now VM86 bios calls can trash the first 4 bytes of the next page
following the kernel stack/pcb. This Is Bad(TM). This bug has been
present in 5.2-release and onwards, and is still in RELENG_5.
Instead of tempting fate and trying to use "spare" fields, explicitly
reserve them.
pcib_route_interrupt interface. Since there's only one interrupt pin
in the CardBus form factor, everybody gets to share it. Implement
cbb_route_interrupt to return the interrupt we have.
Suggested by: bms
Otherwise, busses that implement the pcib interface that forget to
implement pcib_route_interrupt would return EIO, which the caller
interprets as 'use interrupt 6'. This is likely the cause of much of
the grief that we had when I enabled power modes for the cardbus
bridge, since the card needed to reroute the interrupt to it and it
was getting 6 which was d by the pccbb sanity checks.
Also, move the -I stuff to the centralized kern.pre.mk. However, it
might be better to add these flags to files.conf. This is a short
term fix to fix the broken builds on my machine (I don't have a valid
/sys link).

Obtained from: NetBSD (with some changes)
3ware's 9xxx series controllers. This corresponds to
the 9.2 release (for FreeBSD 5.2.1) on the 3ware website.
Highlights of this release are:
1. The driver has been re-architected to use a "Common Layer"
(all tw_cl* files), which is a consolidation of all OS-independent
parts of the driver. The FreeBSD OS specific portions of the
driver go into an "OS Layer" (all tw_osl* files).
This re-architecture is to achieve better maintainability, consistency
of behavior across OS's, and better portability to new OS's (drivers
for new OS's can be written by just adding an OS Layer that's specific
to the OS, by complying to a "Common Layer Programming Interface" API.
2. The driver takes advantage of multiple processors.
3. The driver has a new firmware image bundled, the new features of which
include Online Capacity Expansion and multi-lun support, among others.
More details about 3ware's 9.2 release can be found here:
http://www.3ware.com/download/Escalade9000Series/9.2/9.2_Release_Notes_Web.pdf
Since the Common Layer is used across OS's, the FreeBSD specific include
path for header files (/sys/dev/twa) is not part of the #include pre-processor
directive in any of the source files. For being able to integrate twa into
the kernel despite this, Makefile.<arch> has been changed to add the include
path to CFLAGS.

1 Move the debug.clock_adjust_* sysctls to debug.clock.adjust_* to
make it easier to get only the clock statistics.
2 Make the sysctls read-only [suggested by Marius].
3 When determining the new clock adjustment, we checked for an error
either larger than 12.5% or smaller than 12.5%. We left out an error
of exactly 12.5%. For errors larger than 12.5% we adjust the clock
reload value in such a way that the next clock interrupt would be
early (as in premature). For errors less than 12.5% we stopped the
adjustment.
The current algorithm doesn't benefit from excluding an error of
exactly 12.5%. Change the code to stop adjusting the clock if the
error is *not* larger than 12.5% [suggested by Marius].

o make ieee80211_crypto_newkey take the desired flags as an argument
instead of wacking the key structure directly; this eliminates a
bunch of code warts
o add a new flag IEEE80211_KEY_GROUP to indicate a key is a WPA Group
key so devices don't need to guess (temporarily add this flag in the
ioctl code until we can get wpa_supplicant+hostapd updated)

o Don't keep track of resources in two places
o Use resource_list_purge instead of rolling our own
o Just reassign the ownership of the resource, rather than freeing it
and reallocating it.
o Fix compile problems when sizeof(u_long) != sizeof(int)
in BSD and MBR classes, ie. if provider below us uses the same metadata,
don't create labels based on the metadata.
This allows to create labels on geoms with rank != 1 without hacks.

layer, but with a twist.
The twist has to do with the fact that Microsoft supports structured
exception handling in kernel mode. On the i386 arch, exception handling
is implemented by hanging an exception registration list off the
Thread Environment Block (TEB), and the TEB is accessed via the %fs
register. The problem is, we use %fs as a pointer to the pcpu stucture,
which means any driver that tries to write through %fs:0 will overwrite
the curthread pointer and make a serious mess of things.
To get around this, Project Evil now creates a special entry in
the GDT on each processor. When we call into Windows code, a context
switch routine will fix up %fs so it points to our new descriptor,
which in turn points to a fake TEB. When the Windows code returns,
or calls out to an external routine, we swap %fs back again. Currently,
Project Evil makes use of GDT slot 7, which is all 0s by default.
I fully expect someone to jump up and say I can't do that, but I
couldn't find any code that makes use of this entry anywhere. Sadly,
this was the only method I could come up with that worked on both
UP and SMP. (Modifying the LDT works on UP, but becomes incredibly
complicated on SMP.) If necessary, the context switching stuff can
be yanked out while preserving the convention calling wrappers.
(Fortunately, it looks like Microsoft uses some special epilog/prolog
code on amd64 to implement exception handling, so the same nastiness
won't be necessary on that arch.)
The advantages are:
- Any driver that uses %fs as though it were a TEB pointer won't
clobber pcpu.
- All the __stdcall/__fastcall/__regparm stuff that's specific to
gcc goes away.
Also, while I'm here, switch NdisGetSystemUpTime() back to using
nanouptime() again. It turns out nanouptime() is way more accurate
