since the branch caches on at least Athlon XP through Athlon 64 CPU's
don't understand such instructions and guarantee a cache miss taking
at least 10 cycles. Use the documented workaround "ret $0" instead
("nop; ret" also works, but "ret $0" is probably faster on old CPUs).
Normal code (even asm code) doesn't branch to "ret", since there is
usually some cleanup to do, but the __mcount, .mcount and .mexitcount
entry points were optimized too well to have the minimum number of
instructions (3 instructions each if profiling is not enabled) and
they did this. I didn't see a significant number of cache misses for
.mexitcount, but for the shared "ret" for __mcount and .mcount I
observed cache misses costing 26 cycles each. For a send(2) syscall
that makes about 70 function calls, the cost of these cache misses
alone increased the syscall time from about 4000 cycles to about 7000
cycles. 4000 is for a profiling (GUPROF) kernel with profiling disabled;
after this fix, configuring profiling only costs about 600 cycles in the
4000, which is consistent with almost perfect branch prediction in the
mcounting calls.

sysctl_handle_int is not sizeof the int type you want to export.
The type must always be an int or an unsigned int.
Remove the instances where a sizeof(variable) is passed to stop
people accidently cut and pasting these examples.
In a few places this was sysctl_handle_int was being used on 64 bit

cases use sysctl_handle_quad to export them and change the format
to Q so that sysctl(1) can still print them.
- Split the intr_table_lock into an sx lock used for most things, and a
spin lock to protect intrcnt_index. Originally I had this as a spin lock
so interrupt code could use it to lookup sources. However, we don't
actually do that because it would add a lot of overhead to interrupts,
and if we ever do support removing interrupt sources, we can use other
means to safely do so w/o locking in the interrupt handling code.
- Replace is_enabled (boolean) with is_handlers (a count of handlers) to
determine if a source is enabled or not. This allows us to notice when
a source is no longer in use. When that happens, we now invoke a new
PIC method (pic_disable_intr()) to inform the PIC driver that the
source is no longer in use. The I/O APIC driver frees the APIC IDT
vector when this happens. The MSI driver no longer needs to have a
hack to clear is_enabled during msi_alloc() and msix_alloc() as a result
of this change as well.
- Add an apic_disable_vector() to reset an IDT vector back to Xrsvd to
complement apic_enable_vector() and use it in the I/O APIC and MSI code
when freeing an IDT vector.
- Add a new nexus hook: nexus_add_irq() to ask the nexus driver to add an
IRQ to its irq_rman. The MSI code uses this when it creates new
interrupt sources to let the nexus know about newly valid IRQs.
Previously the msi_alloc() and msix_alloc() passed some extra stuff
back to the nexus methods which then added the IRQs. This approach is
a bit cleaner.
- Change the MSI sx lock to a mutex. If we need to create new sources,
drop the lock, create the required number of sources, then get the lock
and try the allocation again.
cpufreq_pre_change is called before the change, giving each driver a chance
to revoke the change. cpufreq_post_change provides the results of the
change (success or failure). cpufreq_levels_changed gives the unit number
of the cpufreq device whose number of available levels has changed. Hook
in all the drivers I could find that needed it.
* TSC: update TSC frequency value. When the available levels change, take the
highest possible level and notify the timecounter set_cputicker() of that
freq. This gets rid of the "calcru: runtime went backwards" messages.
* identcpu: updates the sysctl hw.clockrate value
* Profiling: if profiling is active when the clock changes, let the user
know the results may be inaccurate.

RTC state, then it may clobber the RTC index register, so the index
register must be restored before using it to restore control registers
in rtc_restore().
The following problems remain:
- rtc_restore() is only called if pmtimer is configured. Buggy
suspend/resumes are more likely to clobber the index register than
a control register, so pmtimer is more needed than it used to be.
- pmtimer doesn't exist for amd64.
- Restoring of the RTC state may race with rtcintr(). If an RTC
interrupt is handled before the state is restored, then rtcin(RTC_INTR)
in rtcintr() may read from the wrong register, so rtcintr() may spin
forever. This may be mitigated by the most common state clobbering
being to turn off RTC interrupts.
used by clock code, so don't export it to the world for machdep.c to

used, since although clock initialization is split up so that parts
of it can be done early, the first part was never done early enough
to actually work. Split it up a bit more and do the first part as
late as possible to document the necessary order. The functions that
implement the split are still bogusly exported.

This unfortunately moves a little more code before the early debugger
breakpoint so that it is harder to debug. The ordering of console and
related initialization is delicate because we want to do as little as
possible before the breakpoint, but must initialize a console.

and by only delaying when an RTC register is written to. The delay
after writing to the data register is now not just a workaround.
This reduces the number of ISA accesses in the usual case from 4 to
1. The usual case is 2 rtcin()'s for each RTC interrupt. The index
register is almost always RTC_INTR for this. The 3 extra ISA accesses
were 1 for writing the index and 2 for delays. Some delays are needed
in theory, but in practice they now just slow down slow accesses some
more since almost eveyone including us does them wrong so modern systems
enforce sufficient delays in hardware. I used to have the delays ifdefed
out, but with the index register optimization the delays are rarely
executed so the old magic ones can be kept or even implemented non-
magically without significant cost.
Optimizing RTC interrupt handling is more interesting than it used to
be because RTC interrupts are currently needed to fix the more efficient
apic timer interrupts on some systems. apic_timer_hz is normally 2000
so the RTC interrupt rate needs to be 2048 to keep the apic timer
firing on such systems. Without these changes, each RTC interrupt
normally took 10 ISA accesses (2 PIC accesses and 2 sets of 4 RTC
accesses). Each ISA access takes 1-1.5uS so 10 of then at 2048 Hz
takes 2-3% of a CPU. Now 4 of them take 0.8-1.2% of a CPU.
not completely decided at config time. Just don't default to using
the TSC if there are multiple active CPUs. Also, don't default to
using the TSC if it is broken. SMP ifdefs are still used to disallow
using perfmon since perfmon is always broken if SMP is just configured.
This only helps much for SMP kernels running on 1 CPU. The overheads
for using the i8254 cputime clock were a bit too high on 486/33's, and
now on multi-GHz CPUs they are usually in the 99-99.9% range. Switching
from the old default of an i8254 clock to the TSC works poorly because
the overheads are not recalibrated.
Use the same condition for declaring perfmon stuff as for using it.

- Throw out all of the logical APIC ID stuff. The Intel docs are somewhat
ambiguous, but it seems that the "flat" cluster model we are currently
using is only supported on Pentium and P6 family CPUs. The other
"hierarchy" cluster model that is supported on all Intel CPUs with
local APICs is severely underdocumented. For example, it's not clear
if the OS needs to glean the topology of the APIC hierarchy from
somewhere (neither ACPI nor MP Table include it) and setup the logical
clusters based on the physical hierarchy or not. Not only that, but on
certain Intel chipsets, even though there were 4 CPUs in a logical
cluster, all the interrupts were only sent to one CPU anyway.
- We now bind interrupts to individual CPUs using physical addressing via
the local APIC IDs. This code has also moved out of the ioapic PIC
driver and into the common interrupt source code so that it can be
shared with MSI interrupt sources since MSI is addressed to APICs the
same way that I/O APIC pins are.
- Interrupt source classes grow a new method pic_assign_cpu() to bind an
interrupt source to a specific local APIC ID.
- The SMP code now tells the interrupt code which CPUs are avaiable to
handle interrupts in a simpler and more intuitive manner. For one thing,
it means we could now choose to not route interrupts to HT cores if we
wanted to (this code is currently in place in fact, but under an #if 0
for now).
- For now we simply do static round-robin of IRQs to CPUs when the first
interrupt handler just as before, with the change that IRQs are now
bound to individual CPUs rather than groups of up to 4 CPUs.
- Because the IRQ to CPU mapping has now been moved up a layer, it would
be easier to manage this mapping from higher levels. For example, we
could allow drivers to specify a CPU affinity map for their interrupts,
or we could allow a userland tool to bind IRQs to specific CPUs.
The MFC is tentative, but I want to see if this fixes problems some folks
had with UP APIC kernels on 6.0 on SMP machines (an SMP kernel would work
fine, but a UP APIC kernel (such as GENERIC in RELENG_6) would lose
interrupts).

passing a pointer to an opaque clockframe structure and requiring the
MD code to supply CLKF_FOO() macros to extract needed values out of the
opaque structure, just pass the needed values directly. In practice this
means passing the pair (usermode, pc) to hardclock() and profclock() and
passing the boolean (usermode) to hardclock_cpu() and hardclock_process().
Other details:
- Axe clockframe and CLKF_FOO() macros on all architectures. Basically,
all the archs were taking a trapframe and converting it into a clockframe
one way or another. Now they can just extract the PC and usermode values
directly out of the trapframe and pass it to fooclock().
- Renamed hardclock_process() to hardclock_cpu() as the latter is more
accurate.
- On Alpha, we now run profclock() at hz (profhz == hz) rather than at
the slower stathz.
- On Alpha, for the TurboLaser machines that don't have an 8254
timecounter, call hardclock() directly. This removes an extra
conditional check from every clock interrupt on Alpha on the BSP.
There is probably room for even further pruning here by changing Alpha
to use the simplified timecounter we use on x86 with the lapic timer
since we don't get interrupts from the 8254 on Alpha anyway.
- On x86, clkintr() shouldn't ever be called now unless using_lapic_timer
is false, so add a KASSERT() to that affect and remove a condition
to slightly optimize the non-lapic case.
- Change prototypeof arm_handler_execute() so that it's first arg is a
trapframe pointer rather than a void pointer for clarity.
