This code was eliminated when the PEND_INTS algorithm was added. But it was
discovered that PEND_INTS only worsen latency for FAST_INTR() routines,
which can't be marked pending.

- removed TEST_ALTTIMER.
- removed APIC_PIN0_TIMER.
- removed TIMER_ALL.
mplock.s:
- minor update of try_mplock for new algorithm where a CPU uses try_mplock
instead of get_mplock in the ISRs.
Macros to convert the Lite2 lock manager primitives to the names used
in the kernel proper. This allows us to hide them from the lock
manager till they can be turned on.
smp.h:
declarations for the new simplelock functions.
- s_lock_init()
- s_lock()
- s_lock_try()
- s_unlock()
Created lock for IO APIC and apic_imen (SMP version of imen)
- imen_lock
Code to use imen_lock for access from apic_ipl.s and apic_vector.s.
Moved this code *outside* of mp_lock.
It seems to work!!!
This define enables the code to ALWAYS run the 8254 timer thru the 8259 ICU.
It is ON by default.
It depricates the usage of "options SMP_TIMER_NC" in the config file.
1) Make sure that the region mapped by a 4MB page is
properly aligned.
2) Don't turn on the PG_G flag in locore for SMP. I plan
to do that later in startup anyway.
3) Make sure the 2nd processor has PSE enabled, so that 4MB
pages don't hose it.
We don't use PG_G yet on SMP -- there is work to be done to make that
work correctly. It isn't that important anyway...
of the kernel, and also most of the dynamic parts of the kernel. Additionally,
4MB pages will be allocated for display buffers as appropriate (only.)
The 4MB support for SMP isn't complete, but doesn't interfere with operation
either.
this code is controlled by smptests.h: TEST_CPUSTOP, OFF by default
new code for handling mixed-mode 8259/APIC programming without 'ExtInt'
this code is controlled by smptests.h: TEST_ALTTIMER, ON by default
- TEST_CPUSTOP adds stop_cpus()/restart_cpus(), OFF by default
- TEST_ALTTIMER new method for attaching 8259 PIC to APIC
this method avoids 'ExtInt' programming, ON by default
- TIMER_ALL sends 8259/8254 timer INTs to all CPUs, ON by default
- ASMPOSTCODExxx code to display bytes to POST hardware, OFF by default
General cleanup.
New functions to stop/start CPUs via IPIs:
- int stop_cpus( u_int map );
- int restart_cpus( u_int map );
Turned off by default, enabled via smptests.h:TEST_CPUSTOP.
Current version has a BUG, perhaps a deadlock?
Till now NMIs would be ignored. Now an NMI is caught by the BSP.
APs still ignore NMI, am working on code to allow a CPU to stop other CPUs
via an IPI.
available to the kernel (VM_KMEM_SIZE). The default (32 MB) is too low
when having 512 MB or more physical memory in a server environment. This is
relevant on systems where "panic: kmem_malloc: kmem_map too small" is a
problem.
This eliminates a lot of #ifdef SMP type code. Things like _curproc reside
in a data page that is unique on each cpu, eliminating the expensive macros
like: #define curproc (SMPcurproc[cpunumber()])
There are some unresolved bootstrap and address space sharing issues at
present, but Steve is waiting on this for other work. There is still some
strictly temporary code present that isn't exactly pretty.
This is part of a larger change that has run into some bumps, this part is
standalone so it should be safe. The temporary code goes away when the
full idle cpu support is finished.

(struct) types. Renamed __va_promote() to __va_size() since it is
related to sizes of args on the stack and not to promotion.

The extra state is kept in the pcb, and handled much like the npx state,
with similar deficiencies (the state is not preserved across signal
handlers, and error handling loses state).
Changes to pmap.c for lapic_t lapic && ioapic_t ioapic pointers,
currently equal to apic_base && io_apic_base, will stand alone with the
private page mapping.
apic.h has defines like:
#define lapic__id lapic->id
Once private pages and "known virtual addr" mapping of the APICs is
ready all 'lapic__XXX' will be changed to 'lapic.XXX', and the defines
will be removed.

pci_compat.c (which is to be deleted, after all drivers are converted)
provides an emulation of the old PCI bus driver functions. The only
change that might be visible to drivers is, that the type pcici_t
(which had been meant to be just a handle, whose exact definition
should not be relied on), has been converted into a pcicfgregs* .
The Tekram AMD SCSI driver bogusly relied on the definition of pcici_t
and has been converted to just call the PCI drivers functions to access
configuration space register, instead of inventing its own ...
This code is by no means complete, but assumed to be fully operational,
and brings the official code base more in line with my development code.
A new generic device descriptor data type has to be agreed on. The PCI
code will then use that data type to provide new functionality:
1) userconfig support
2) "wired" PCI devices
3) conflicts checking against ISA/EISA
4) maps will depend on the command register enable bits
5) PCI to Anything bridges can be defined as devices,
and are probed like any "standard" PCI device.
The following features are currently missing, but will be added back,
soon:
1) unknown device probe message
2) suppression of "mirrored" devices caused by ancient, broken chip-sets
This code relies on generic shared interrupt support just commited to
kern_intr.c (plus the modifications of isa.c and isa_device.h).
This is now the default, it delays most of the MP startup to the function
machdep.c:cpu_startup(). It should be possible to move the 2 functions
found there (mp_start() & mp_announce()) even further down the path once
we know exactly where that should be...

- The 1st (preparse_mp_table()) counts the number of cpus, busses, etc. and
records the LOCAL and IO APIC addresses.
- The 2nd pass (parse_mp_table()) does the actual parsing of info and recording
into the incore MP table.
This will allow us to defer the 2nd pass untill malloc() & private pages
are available (but thats for another day!).
panic( "xxxxx\n" );
to:
printf( "xxxxx\n" );
panic( "\n" );
For some as yet undetermined reason the argument to panic() is often NOT
printed, and the system sometimes hangs before reaching the panic printout.
So we hopefully at least print some useful info before the hang, as oppossed to
leaving the user clueless as to what has happened.

This change incidentally eliminates a problem building ELF kernels

This should fix the compile hiccup in PR#3491, but smp kernel profiling
isn't likely to be fixed by this.
- one-liners all become inline.
- multi-liners become functions.
- FAST_IPI defines go away.
