This is intended to aid in converting drivers to busdma. Lots of
hardware cannot understand scatter/gather lists, which forces the
driver to copy the i/o buffers to a single contiguous region
before sending it to the hardware. Without these new methods, this
would require a new busdma tag for each operation, or a complex
internal allocator/cache for each driver.
Allocations greater than PAGE_SIZE are rounded up to the next
PAGE_SIZE by contigmalloc(), so this is not suitable for multiple

data structure called kse_upcall to manage UPCALL. All KSE binding
and loaning code are gone.
A thread owns an upcall can collect all completed syscall contexts in
its ksegrp, turn itself into UPCALL mode, and takes those contexts back
to userland. Any thread without upcall structure has to export their
contexts and exit at user boundary.
Any thread running in user mode owns an upcall structure, when it enters
kernel, if the kse mailbox's current thread pointer is not NULL, then
when the thread is blocked in kernel, a new UPCALL thread is created and
the upcall structure is transfered to the new UPCALL thread. if the kse
mailbox's current thread pointer is NULL, then when a thread is blocked
in kernel, no UPCALL thread will be created.
Each upcall always has an owner thread. Userland can remove an upcall by
calling kse_exit, when all upcalls in ksegrp are removed, the group is
atomatically shutdown. An upcall owner thread also exits when process is
in exiting state. when an owner thread exits, the upcall it owns is also
removed.
KSE is a pure scheduler entity. it represents a virtual cpu. when a thread
is running, it always has a KSE associated with it. scheduler is free to
assign a KSE to thread according thread priority, if thread priority is changed,
KSE can be moved from one thread to another.
When a ksegrp is created, there is always N KSEs created in the group. the
N is the number of physical cpu in the current system. This makes it is
possible that even an userland UTS is single CPU safe, threads in kernel still
can execute on different cpu in parallel. Userland calls kse_create to add more
upcall structures into ksegrp to increase concurrent in userland itself, kernel
is not restricted by number of upcalls userland provides.

useful for accessing more than 1 page of contiguous physical memory, and
to use 4mb tlb entries instead of 8k. This requires that the system only
use the direct mapped addresses when they have the same virtual colour as
all other mappings of the same page, instead of being able to choose the
colour and cachability of the mapping.
- Adapt the physical page copying and zeroing functions to account for not
being able to choose the colour or cachability of the direct mapped
address. This adds a lot more cases to handle. Basically when a page has
a different colour than its direct mapped address we have a choice between
bypassing the data cache and using physical addresses directly, which
requires a cache flush, or mapping it at the right colour, which requires
a tlb flush. For now we choose to map the page and do the tlb flush.
This will allows the direct mapped addresses to be used for more things
that don't require normal pmap handling, including mapping the vm_page
structures, the message buffer, temporary mappings for crash dumps, and will
provide greater benefit for implementing uma_small_alloc, due to the much
greater tlb coverage.

VM_MIN_KERNEL_ADDRESS, instead of after the kernel where it consumes
usable kva. This is magic mapped so the virtual address is irrelevant,
it just needs to be out of the way.
a mapping belongs to by setting it in the vm_page_t structure that backs
the tsb page that the tte for a mapping is in. This allows the pmap that
a mapping belongs to to be found without keeping a pointer to it in the
tte itself.
- Remove the pmap pointer from struct tte and use the space to make the
tte pv lists doubly linked (TAILQs), like on other architectures. This
makes entering or removing a mapping O(1) instead of O(n) where n is the
number of pmaps a page is mapped by (including kernel_pmap).
- Use atomic ops for setting and clearing bits in the ttes, now that they
return the old value and can be easily used for this purpose.
- Use __builtin_memset for zeroing ttes instead of bzero, so that gcc will
inline it (4 inline stores using %g0 instead of a function call).
- Initially set the virtual colour for all the vm_page_ts to be equal to their
physical colour. This will be more useful once uma_small_alloc is
implemented, but basically pages with virtual colour equal to phsyical
colour are easier to handle at the pmap level because they can be safely
accessed through cachable direct virtual to physical mappings with that
colour, without fear of causing illegal dcache aliases.

1. At least some Netra t1 models have PCI buses with no associated

2. On SPARCengine Ultra AX machines, interrupt numbers are not mapped

Thus, instead of printing a bogus frame with the wrong eip, go ahead

basically maps all of physical memory 1:1 to a range of virtual addresses
outside of normal kva. The advantage of doing this instead of accessing
phsyical addresses directly is that memory accesses will go through the
data cache, and will participate in the normal cache coherency algorithm
for invalidating lines in our own and in other cpus' data caches. So
we don't have to flush the cache manually or send IPIs to do so on other
cpus. Also, since the mappings never change, we don't have to flush them

handler in the kernel at the same time. Also, allow for the
exec_new_vmspace() code to build a different sized vmspace depending on
the executable environment. This is a big help for execing i386 binaries
on ia64. The ELF exec code grows the ability to map partial pages when
there is a page size difference, eg: emulating 4K pages on 8K or 16K
hardware pages.
Flesh out the i386 emulation support for ia64. At this point, the only
binary that I know of that fails is cvsup, because the cvsup runtime
tries to execute code in pages not marked executable.

is no way to determine on which bus a busdma operation is performed.
While being there, clean up the iommu code a bit.

the interrupt packet data words will not necessarily be delivered
correctly, which would result in a crash.
This bug also caused the cache-flushing work to be done twice on the
triggering CPU (when it did not cause crashes).

is really easy since it can just use the direct mapped region. For others,
IPI sending is involved or there are other issues, so grab Giant when
needed.
We still have preemption issues to deal with, but Alan Cox has an
interesting suggestion on how to minimize the problem on x86.
Use Luigi's hack for preserving the (lack of) priority.
Turn the idle zeroing back on since it can now actually do something useful

While here, use the UMA zone hooks to keep a cache of preinitialized
proc structures handy, just like the thread system does. This eliminates
one dependency on 'struct proc' being persistent even after being freed.
There are some comments about things that can be factored out into
ctor/dtor functions if it is worth it. For now they are mostly just
doing statistics to get a feel of how it is working.
we just have to deal with the kstack when told to. We do not have a
UMA-managed cache for the proc struct and its associated upage yet. So,
go back to the old lazy mechanism. Note that if UMA destroys pages that
used to contain proc structures, we'll lose the corresponding upage
forever. (zones never did this - once a page was allocated, it stayed
attached to the proc zone forever)
