processor. The kernel config file to use is SWARM_SMP.

used to check if the memory map changed since the last time to avoid
iterating over all the VM entries unnecesarily.

Even though the default VGA font provides box drawing fonts, there is no
guarantee any font will provide these as well (i.e. ISO-8859-*, KOI8-R).
Just use ASCII characters for box drawing.

sync.
VIPT/PIPT caches need valid VA-PA mapping in PTE for a cache operation to
succeed (unlike VIVT). Prior to this fix pmap was using l2pte_valid() for that
check, but this is not sufficient as the function merely checks if a PTE
exists (there can be existing but _invalid_ entries in the table).
A new pmap_has_valid_mapping() routine is introduced to do this job right by
checking proper PTE flags.
Among other potential problems this cures coherency issues with L2 caches on
MV-78100.

Also update man page to document the above changes, and correct grammar.

we still need to execute the instruction at that address. Don't raise
SIGTRAP when we branch into the process, but enable single-stepping
instead.
_PDC was deprecated in favor of _OSC long time ago, but it
seems that they still peacefully coexist and in some case
only _PDC is present.
Still _OSC provides a reacher interface and is capable to
report back its status.
If the status is non-zero, then report it, we may find
it useful to understand what firmware expects from OS.
Also clean up some comments that became less useful over time.

Simplify register usage - we can directly load 'curpcb' into 'k1' after
interrupts are disabled. There is no need to do so indirectly through 'a1'.
The only reason we need to have the sb_load64() and sb_store64()
functions in assembly is to cheat the compiler and generate the
'ld' and 'sd' instructions which it otherwise will not do when
compiling for a 32-bit architecture. There are some 64-bit
registers in the SCD unit that must be accessed using 64-bit
load and store instructions.

should make kernels built with VNET_DEBUG reasonably usable again in
busy / production environments.
Introduce a new DDB command "show vnetrcrs" which dumps the whole log
of distinctive curvnet recursion events. This might be useful when
recursion reports get burried / lost too deep in the message buffer.
In the later case stack backtraces are not available.
