sockets into machine-dependent files. The rationale for this
migration is illustrated by the modified amd64 allocator. It uses the
amd64's direct map to avoid emphemeral mappings in the kernel's
address space. On an SMP, the emphemeral mappings result in an IPI
for TLB shootdown for each transmitted page. Yuck.
Maintainers of other 64-bit platforms with direct maps should be able
to use the amd64 allocator as a reference implementation.
change also disables interrupts around non-S4 suspends whereas before we
did not do this. Our version of AcpiEnterSleepStateS4bios was almost
identical to the ACPICA version.
- Add a new PCIM_HDRTYPE constant for the field in PCIR_HDRTYPE that holds
the header type.
- Replace several magic numbers with appropriate constants for the header
type register and a couple of PCI_FUNCMAX.
- Merge to amd64 the fix to the i386 bridge code to skip devices with
unknown header types.

_pmap_allocpte(): Guarantee that the page table page is zero filled before
adding it to the directory. Otherwise, a 2nd, 3rd, etc. thread could
access a nearby virtual address and use garbage for the address
translation.

prototypes of cpu_halt(), cpu_reset() and swi_vm() from md_var.h to
cpu.h. This affects db_command.c and kern_shutdown.c.
ia64: move all MD prototypes from cpu.h to md_var.h. This affects
madt.c, interrupt.c and mp_machdep.c. Remove is_physical_memory().
It's not used (vm_machdep.c).
alpha: the MD prototypes have been left in cpu.h with a comment
that they should be there. Moving them is left for later. It was
expected that the impact would be significant enough to be done in
a seperate commit.
powerpc: MD prototypes left in cpu.h. Comment added.

A timecounter will be selected when registered if its quality is
not negative and no less than the current timecounters.
Add a sysctl to report all available timecounters and their qualities.
Give the dummy timecounter a solid negative quality of minus a million.
Give the i8254 zero and the ACPI 1000.
The TSC gets 800, unless APM or SMP forces it negative.
Other timecounters default to zero quality and thereby retain current
selection behaviour.
- Add a macro for the logical shift needed to extract an APIC ID from
either from the local APIC ICR Hi register or the APIC ID registers of
the local and IO APICs.

kind enough to provide a better patch in PR 55581. I've merged that
into the routine. Hopefully I've not overlooked anything this time.

parameter. The new name better reflects what the function does and
how it is used. The last parameter was always FALSE.
Note: In theory, gcc would perform constant propagation and dead code
elimination to achieve the same effect as removing the last parameter,
which is always FALSE. In practice, recent versions do not. So, there
is little point in letting unused code pessimize execution.

completenss. The pessimization is tiny compared with i/o port slowness
except on very old machines, but code that used signed short types for
i/o ports was unpessimized long ago, and the macro that detected it
recently started working for u_short types too. Use of bus space
should have made this moot long ago.

they haven't been counted before. This test was ommitted when bus_dmamap_load()
was merged into this function, and results in the pagesneeded field growing
without bounds when multiple deferrals happen.
Thanks to Paul Saab for beating his head against this for a few hours =-)
- Move the enabling of interrupts out of assembly and into C a few
instructions later at cpu_critical_fork_exit(). This puts more of the
MD critical section implementation under the MD critical section API
making it easier to test and develop alternative implementations.
Also change "Auto mode" to use a "special" value
instead of 0, and define and document it.
I had thought libpthread had already been switched to use auto mode but
it appears that patch hasn't been committed yet.
