type of software interrupt. Roughly, what used to be a bit in spending
now maps to a swi thread. Each thread can have multiple handlers, just
like a hardware interrupt thread.
- Instead of using a bitmask of pending interrupts, we schedule the specific
software interrupt thread to run, so spending, NSWI, and the shandlers
array are no longer needed. We can now have an arbitrary number of
software interrupt threads. When you register a software interrupt
thread via sinthand_add(), you get back a struct intrhand that you pass
to sched_swi() when you wish to schedule your swi thread to run.
- Convert the name of 'struct intrec' to 'struct intrhand' as it is a bit
more intuitive. Also, prefix all the members of struct intrhand with
'ih_'.
- Make swi_net() a MI function since there is now no point in it being

reducues the maintenance load for the mutex code. The only MD portions
of the mutex code are in machine/mutex.h now, which include the assembly
macros for handling mutexes as well as optionally overriding the mutex
micro-operations. For example, we use optimized micro-ops on the x86
platform #ifndef I386_CPU.
- Change the behavior of the SMP_DEBUG kernel option. In the new code,
mtx_assert() only depends on INVARIANTS, allowing other kernel developers
to have working mutex assertiions without having to include all of the
mutex debugging code. The SMP_DEBUG kernel option has been renamed to
MUTEX_DEBUG and now just controls extra mutex debugging code.
- Abolish the ugly mtx_f hack. Instead, we dynamically allocate
seperate mtx_debug structures on the fly in mtx_init, except for mutexes
that are initiated very early in the boot process. These mutexes
are declared using a special MUTEX_DECLARE() macro, and use a new
flag MTX_COLD when calling mtx_init. This is still somewhat hackish,
but it is less evil than the mtx_f filler struct, and the mtx struct is
now the same size with and without mutex debugging code.
- Add some micro-micro-operation macros for doing the actual atomic
operations on the mutex mtx_lock field to make it easier for other archs
to override/optimize mutex ops if needed. These new tiny ops also clean
up the code in some places by replacing long atomic operation function
calls that spanned 2-3 lines with a short 1-line macro call.
- Don't call mi_switch() from mtx_enter_hard() when we block while trying
to obtain a sleep mutex. Calling mi_switch() would bogusly release
Giant before switching to the next process. Instead, inline most of the
code from mi_switch() in the mtx_enter_hard() function. Note that when
we finally kill Giant we can back this out and go back to calling
mi_switch().
in most of the atomic operations. Now for these operations, you can
use the normal atomic operation, you can use the operation with a read
barrier, or you can use the operation with a write barrier. The function
names follow the same semantics used in the ia64 instruction set. An
atomic operation with a read barrier has the extra suffix 'acq', due to
it having "acquire" semantics. An atomic operation with a write barrier
has the extra suffix 'rel'. These suffixes are inserted between the
name of the operation to perform and the typename. For example, the
atomic_add_int() function now has 3 variants:
- atomic_add_int() - this is the same as the previous function
- atomic_add_acq_int() - this function combines the add operation with a
read memory barrier
- atomic_add_rel_int() - this function combines the add operation with a
write memory barrier
- Add 'ptr' to the list of types that we can perform atomic operations
on. This allows one to do atomic operations on uintptr_t's. This is
useful in the mutex code, for example, because the actual mutex lock is
a pointer.
- Add two new operations for doing loads and stores with memory barriers.
The new load operations use a read barrier before the load, and the
new store operations use a write barrier after the load. For example,
atomic_load_acq_int() will atomically load an integer as well as
enforcing a read barrier.

return through doreti to handle ast's. This is necessary for the
clock interrupts to work properly.
- Change the clock interrupts on the x86 to be fast instead of threaded.
This is needed because both hardclock() and statclock() need to run in
the context of the current process, not in a separate thread context.
- Kill the prevproc hack as it is no longer needed.
- We really need Giant when we call psignal(), but we don't want to block
during the clock interrupt. Instead, use two p_flag's in the proc struct
to mark the current process as having a pending SIGVTALRM or a SIGPROF
and let them be delivered during ast() when hardclock() has finished
running.
- Remove CLKF_BASEPRI, which was #ifdef'd out on the x86 anyways. It was
broken on the x86 if it was turned on since cpl is gone. It's only use
was to bogusly run softclock() directly during hardclock() rather than
scheduling an SWI.
- Remove the COM_LOCK simplelock and replace it with a clock_lock spin
mutex. Since the spin mutex already handles disabling/restoring
interrupts appropriately, this also lets us axe all the *_intr() fu.

- stop using the evil 'struct trapframe' argument for mi_startup()
(formerly main()). There are much better ways of doing it.
- do not use prepare_usermode() - setregs() in execve() will do it
all for us as long as the p_md.md_regs pointer is set. (which is
now done in machdep.c rather than init_main.c. The Alpha port did it
this way all along and is much cleaner).
- collect all the magic %cr0 etc register settings into one place and
have the AP's call that instead of using magic numbers (!!) that keep
changing over and over again.
- Make it safe to call kthread_create() earlier, including during the
device probe sequence. It doesn't need the callback mechanism that
NetBSD's version uses.
- kthreads created this way are root-less as they exist before the root
filesystem is mounted. init(1) is set up so that it aquires the root
pointers prior to running. If other kthreads want filesystem acccess
we can make this code more generic.
- set all threads start times once we have decided what time it is.
- init uses a trampoline rather than the evil prepare_usermode() hack.
- kern_descrip.c has a couple of tweaks to deal with forking when there
is no rootdir or cwd etc.
- adjust the early SYSINIT() sequence so that a few prereqisites are in
place. eg: make sure the run queue is initialized before doing forks.
With this, the USB code can easily create a kthread to do the device
tree discovery. (I have tested it, it works nicely).
There are still some open issues before this is truely useful.
- tsleep() does not like working before the clock is running. It
sort-of tries to spin wait, but it can do more useful things now.
- stopping a kthread in kld code at unload time is "interesting" but
we have a solution for that.
The Alpha code needs no changes for this. It already uses pretty much the
same strategies, but a little cleaner.

- IDs out of range is considered to be in conflict.

to various pmap_*() functions instead of looking up the physical address
and passing that. In many cases, the first thing the pmap code was doing
was going to a lot of trouble to get back the original vm_page_t, or
it's shadow pv_table entry.
Inspired by: John Dyson's 1998 patches.
Also:
Eliminate pv_table as a seperate thing and build it into a machine
dependent part of vm_page_t. This eliminates having a seperate set of
structions that shadow each other in a 1:1 fashion that we often went to
a lot of trouble to translate from one to the other. (see above)
This happens to save 4 bytes of physical memory for each page in the
system. (8 bytes on the Alpha).
Eliminate the use of the phys_avail[] array to determine if a page is
managed (ie: it has pv_entries etc). Store this information in a flag.
Things like device_pager set it because they create vm_page_t's on the
fly that do not have pv_entries. This makes it easier to "unmanage" a
page of physical memory (this will be taken advantage of in subsequent
commits).
Add a function to add a new page to the freelist. This could be used
for reclaiming the previously wasted pages left over from preloaded

syscall path inward. A system call may select whether it needs the MP
lock or not (the default being that it does need it).
A great deal of conditional SMP code for various deadended experiments
has been removed. 'cil' and 'cml' have been removed entirely, and the
locking around the cpl has been removed. The conditional
separately-locked fast-interrupt code has been removed, meaning that
interrupts must hold the CPL now (but they pretty much had to anyway).
Another reason for doing this is that the original separate-lock for
interrupts just doesn't apply to the interrupt thread mechanism being
contemplated.
Modifications to the cpl may now ONLY occur while holding the MP
lock. For example, if an otherwise MP safe syscall needs to mess with
the cpl, it must hold the MP lock for the duration and must (as usual)
save/restore the cpl in a nested fashion.
This is precursor work for the real meat coming later: avoiding having
to hold the MP lock for common syscalls and I/O's and interrupt threads.
It is expected that the spl mechanisms and new interrupt threading
mechanisms will be able to run in tandem, allowing a slow piecemeal
transition to occur.
This patch should result in a moderate performance improvement due to
the considerable amount of code that has been removed from the critical
path, especially the simplification of the spl*() calls. The real
performance gains will come later.

struct sigcontext and ucontext_t/mcontext_t are defined in such
a way that both (ie struct sigcontext and ucontext_t) can be
passed on to sigreturn. The signal handler is still given a
ucontext_t for maximum flexibility.
For backward compatibility sigreturn restores the state for the
alternate signal stack from sigcontext.sc_onstack and not from
ucontext_t.uc_stack. A good way to determine which value the
application has set and thus which value to use, is still open
for discussion.
NOTE: This change should only affect those binaries that use
sigcontext and/or ucontext_t. In the source tree itself
this is only doscmd. Recompilation is required for those
applications.
This commit also fixes a lot of style bugs without hopefully
adding new ones.
NOTE: struct sigaltstack.ss_size now has type size_t again. For
some reason I changed that into unsigned int.

-----------------------------
By introducing a new sigframe so that the signal handler operates
on the new siginfo_t and on ucontext_t instead of sigcontext, we
now need two version of sendsig and sigreturn.
A flag in struct proc determines whether the process expects an
old sigframe or a new sigframe. The signal trampoline handles
which sigreturn to call. It does this by testing for a magic
cookie in the frame.
The alpha uses osigreturn to implement longjmp. This means that
osigreturn is not only used for compatibility with existing
binaries. To handle the new sigset_t, setjmp saves it in
sc_reserved (see NOTE).
the struct sigframe has been moved from frame.h to sigframe.h
to handle the complex header dependencies that was caused by
the new sigframe.
NOTE: For the i386, the size of jmp_buf has been increased to hold
the new sigset_t. On the alpha this has been prevented by
using sc_reserved in sigcontext.

We'll be able to sysctl these two later on when the buffer subsystem

the OS does FXSAVE/FXRESTOR instructions (fast FPU save/restore) during
context switching and also enables SIMD since this enables saving the
extra CPU context that isn't saved with normal FPU regs. The other
enables the SIMD instructions to use exception 16 (FPU) error reporting.
Note, this doesn't turn on SIMD, just defines the bits.
1. Move definitions of struct i386_*_args to the header file sysarch.h,
since they are part of the sysarch API. struct i386_get_ldt_args and
i386_set_ldt_args were identical, therefore make them into one
struct i386_ldt_args. Libc should use these definitions as well.
2. Return a more sensible EOPNOTSUPP for unknown operations.

This approach makes atomic operations from KLDs significantly

than a review, this was a nice puzzle.
This is supposed to be binary and source compatible with older
applications that access the old FreeBSD-style three arguments to a
signal handler.
Except those applications that access hidden signal handler arguments
bejond the documented third one. If you have applications that do,
please let me know so that we take the opportunity to provide the
functionality they need in a documented manner.
Also except application that use 'struct sigframe' directly. You need
to recompile gdb and doscmd. `make world` is recommended.
Example program that demonstrates how SA_SIGINFO and old-style FreeBSD
handlers (with their three args) may be used in the same process is at
http://www3.cons.org/tmp/fbsd-siginfo.c
Programs that use the old FreeBSD-style three arguments are easy to
change to SA_SIGINFO (although they don't need to, since the old style
will still work):
Old args to signal handler:
void handler_sn(int sig, int code, struct sigcontext *scp)
New args:
void handler_si(int sig, siginfo_t *si, void *third)
where:
old:code == new:second->si_code
old:scp == &(new:si->si_scp) /* Passed by value! */
The latter is also pointed to by new:third, but accessing via
si->si_scp is preferred because it is type-save.
FreeBSD implementation notes:
- This is just the framework to make the interface POSIX compatible.
For now, no additional functionality is provided. This is supposed
to happen now, starting with floating point values.
- We don't use 'sigcontext_t.si_value' for now (POSIX meant it for
realtime-related values).
- Documentation will be updated when new functionality is added and
the exact arguments passed are determined. The comments in
sys/signal.h are meant to be useful.

This won't change existing drivers, all of which include one or more
of bus_{p,mem}io.h, but will allow drivers from other systems to come
over with fewer changes. I freely admit that this might not be
optimal for some drivers, but those drivers can be optimized for
FreeBSD after the initial bringup happens.
Without the change, there is a bug that preclude drivers from
compiling with strange warning/errors.
