that value. The reason for this is twofold:
1. Not all registers can be represented by a register_t. In particular
FP registers fall in that category. Passing the new register value
by reference instead of by value makes this point moot.
2. When we receive a G or P packet, both are for writing a register,
the packet will have the register value in target-byte order and
in the memory representation (modulo the fact that bytes are sent
as 2 printable hexadecimal numbers of course). We only need to
decode the packet to have a pointer to the register value.
This change fixes the bug of extracting the register value of the P
packet as a hexadecimal number instead of as a bit array. The quick

This call must be unconditional. Regardless of whether the pmap is active
on the CPU performing _pmap_unwire_pte_hold(), it could be active on another
CPU. For example, a call to pmap_remove_all() by the page daemon could
result in a call to _pmap_unwire_pte_hold() with the pmap inactive on the
current CPU and active on another CPU. In such circumstances, failing to
call pmap_invalidate_page() results in a stale TLB entry on the other CPU
that still maps the now deallocated page table page. What happens next is
typically a mysterious panic in pmap_enter() by the other CPU, either
"pmap_enter: attempted pmap_enter on 4MB page" or "pmap_enter: pte vanished,

the page table page's wired count rather than its hold count to contain
the reference count. My rationale for this change is based on several
factors:
1. The machine-independent and pmap layers used the same hold count field
in subtly different ways. The machine-independent layer uses the hold
count to implement a form of ephemeral wiring that is used by pipes,
physio, etc. In other words, subsystems where we wish to temporarily
block a page from being swapped out while it is mapped into the kernel's
address space. Such pages are never removed from the page queues.
Instead, the page daemon recognizes a non-zero hold count to mean "hands
off this page." In contrast, page table pages are never in the page
queues; they are wired from birth to death. The hold count was being
used as a kind of reference count, specifically, the number of valid
page table entries within the page. Not surprisingly, these two
different uses imply different synchronization rules: in the machine-
independent layer access to the hold count requires the page queues
lock; whereas in the pmap layer the pmap lock is required. Thus,
continued use by the pmap layer of vm_page_unhold(), which asserts that
the page queues lock is held, made no sense.
2. _pmap_unwire_pte_hold() was too forgiving in its handling of the wired
count. An unexpected wired count on a page table page was ignored and
the underlying page leaked.
3. In a word, microoptimization. Using the wired count exclusively, rather
than a combination of the wired and hold counts, makes the code slightly
smaller and faster.

One scenario where the old code could cause a lost PG_M bit is a

The thread doing fork() would call vmspace_fork(), which would then
call vm_map_copy_entry() which would call pmap_protect() on an area
possibly accessed by other threads.
Additionally, make the clearing of PG_M by pmap_protect() unconditional if

these two reasons:
1. On ia64 a function pointer does not hold the address of the first
instruction of a functions implementation. It holds the address
of a function descriptor. Hence the user(), btrap(), eintr() and
bintr() prototypes are wrong for getting the actual code address.
2. The logic forces interrupt, trap and exception entry points to
be layed-out contiguously. This can not be achieved on ia64 and is
generally just bad programming.
The MCOUNT_FROMPC_USER macro is used to set the frompc argument to
some kernel address which represents any frompc that falls outside
the kernel text range. The macro can expand to ~0U to bail out in
that case.
The MCOUNT_FROMPC_INTR macro is used to set the frompc argument to
some kernel address to represent a call to a trap or interrupt

be called from everywhere in the call graph. The macro can expand
to ~0U to prevent adjusting frompc. Note that the argument is selfpc,
not frompc.

perfectly consecutive. If you want consecutive output, use a single
asm. Also, GCC will perform some optimizations across a volatile
asm instruction; GCC does not "forget everything" when it encounters
a volatile asm instruction the way some other compilers do.

Also, this change also makes the ASM code much easier to read.

We were obtaining different spin mutexes (which disable interrupts after
aquisition) and spin waiting for delivery. For example, KSE processes
do LDT operations which use smp_rendezvous, while other parts of the
system are doing things like tlb shootdowns with a different mutex.
This patch uses the common smp_rendezvous mutex for all MD home-grown
IPIs that spinwait for delivery. Having the single mutex means that
the spinloop to aquire it will enable interrupts periodically, thus
avoiding the cross-ipi deadlock.

with VmWare 4.x. At least with VmWare version 4.5.2, i386 version of
atomic_cmpset_int() is about 30 times slower than non-i386 version. It
makes this delta a good 5.3 MFC candidate, since otherwise it will
mislead users who run FreeBSD under modern VmWare otherwise.
Since pmap_enter() calls pmap_invalidate_page(), which needs interrupts
enabled in the SMP case, we defer the disable to right before saving the
register context. This has been incorrect for about a year but caused no
real problems because the identity page never actually replaces a previously
mapped page and suspend/resume on SMP systems has been uncommon.

was incomplete in that it would only honor requests for resources
that already exist in its resource list. This prevented many ISA
identify routines from allocating temporary resources. Passing
the requests up to legacy's parent losing no functionality and

logical CPUs on a system to be used as a dedicated watchdog to cause a
drop to the debugger and/or generate an NMI to the boot processor if
the kernel ceases to respond. A sysctl enables the watchdog running
out of the processor's idle thread; a callout is launched to reset a
timer in the watchdog. If the callout fails to reset the timer for ten
seconds, the watchdog will fire. The sysctl allows you to select which
CPU will run the watchdog.
A sample "debug.leak_schedlock" is included, which causes a sysctl to
spin holding sched_lock in order to trigger the watchdog. On my Xeons,
the watchdog is able to detect this failure mode and break into the
debugger, which cannot otherwise be done without an NMI button.
This option does not currently work with sched_ule due to ule's push
notion of scheduling, similar to machdep.hlt_logical_cpus failing to
work with that scheduler.
On face value, this might seem somewhat inefficient, but there are a
lot of dual-processor Xeons with HTT around, so using one as a watchdog
for testing is not as inefficient as one might fear.

a standard configuration similar to [NO_]ADAPTIVE_MUTEXES. This
feature causes Giant to be included in the set of mutexes adaptively
spun on. It appears to have a positive effect on performance on SMP
across several workloads, including measurements of a 16% improvement
on buildworld, and 30%+ improvement for MySQL using the supersmack
benchmark with Giant over the network stack; a 6% improvement without
Giant on the network stack (as a result of less giant contention).

map other pages at the same location and if there was an old mapping, it
would be restored by a fault. The old code had serious problems, namely
that it was restoring the new page it had just removed (not opage) and
it could only guess at the right protection (since there's no
pmap_extract_protect function). Thanks to Alan Cox for explaining much
of this to me.
Also, remove a commented-out initializecpu() call since it is not needed.
Restoring the cpu context is better than attempting to init from scratch.

pic_eoi_source() into one call. This halves the number of spinlock operations
and indirect function calls in the normal case of handling a normal (ithread)
interrupt. Optimize the atpic and ioapic drivers to use inlines where
appropriate in supporting the intr_execute_handlers() change.
This knocks 900ns, or roughly 1350 cycles, off of the time spent servicing an
interrupt in the common case on my 1.5GHz P4 uniprocessor system. SMP systems
likely won't see as much of a gain due to the ioapic being more efficient than
the atpic. I'll investigate porting this to amd64 soon.

should now be faster on i386 SMP because it no longer generates IPIs

Since arm has all the logic in db_stack_trace_cmd(), rename the
new DB_COMMAND function to db_stack_trace to avoid conflicts on
arm.
While here, have db_stack_trace parse its own arguments so that
we can use a more natural radix for IDs. If the ID is not a thread
ID, or more precisely when no thread exists with the ID, try if
there's a process with that ID and return the first thread in it.
