this is a low-functionality change that changes the kernel to access the main
thread of a process via the linked list of threads rather than
assuming that it is embedded in the process. It IS still embeded there
but remove all teh code that assumes that in preparation for the next commit
which will actually move it out.

from old signal handlers. This is simpler and faster, and fixes (new)
sigreturn(2) when %eip in the new signal context happens to match the
magic value (0x1d516). 0x1d516 is below the default ELF text section,
so this probably never broken anything in practice.
locore.s:
In addition, don't build the signal trampoline for old signal handlers
when it is not used.
alpha:
Not fixed, but seems to be even less broken in practice due to more
advanced magic. A false match occurs for register #32 in mc_regs[].
Since there is no hardware register #32, a false match is only possible
for direct calls to sigreturn(2) that happen to have the magic number
in the spare mc_regs[32] field.
some arches and the syscall table is machine-independent. It was
(bogusly) conditional on COMPAT_43, so this usually makes no difference.
ia64: in addition:
- replace the bogus cloned comment before osigreturn() by a correct one.
osigreturn() is just a stub fo ia64's.
- fix the formatting of cloned comment before sigreturn().
- fix the return code. use nosys() instead of returning ENOSYS to get
the same semantics as if the syscall is not in the syscall table.
Generating SIGSYS is actually correct here.
- fix style bugs.
powerpc: copy the cleaned up ia64 stub. This mainly fixes a bogus comment.
sparc64: copy the cleaned up the ia64 stub, since there was no stub before.
for SMP in the plain profiling case. It seems to work too.
This error was not detected by LINT because LINT only compiles the
GUPROF profiling case, which is is a superset of the plain profiling
case for !SMP but which is so broken for SMP that the buggy code is
not compiled.
the packet transfer routines, since rev.1.468 of machdep.c does this
better. I'm surprised that disabling interrupts helped much. Disabling
them in the packet receive routine is too late.
Fixed some minor style bugs in rev.1.14.
to fetch the magic word instead of useracc() plus a direct access.
This is more efficient as well as simpler and less incorrect:
- it was inefficent because useracc() takes much longer than just
accessing the data using a correct access method, at least on i386's.
- it was incorrect because direct access is incorrect unless the address
has been mapped. This and nearby direct accesses are mostly handled
better for other arches because they have to be (direct accesses don't
work).
- using magic in sigreturn is still fundamentally broken because false
matches are possible. On i386's, a false match occurs when %eip in a
new signal context happens to equal the magic value. This is not
handled better for other arches.
is not configured. Including <isa/isavar.h> when it is not used is
harmful as well as bogus, since it includes "isa_if.h" which is not
generated when isa is not configured.
This was fixed in 1999 but was broken by unconditionalizing PNPBIOS.

This typo keeps us from properly routing an interrupt for CardBus
bridges on this machine. So, now we look for $PIR and then _PIR to
cope. With these changes, the Libretto L1 now works properly.
Evidentally, the idea comes from patch that the Japanese version of
RedHat (or against a Japanese version of Red Hat), but my Japanese

cpuid with %eax=1 will return a logical cpu count in bits 16-23 of %ebx.
Bit 29 is actually 'TM' according to AP-485. This signifies the presence
of the thermal control circuit (which I believe can slow the clock down
to reduce core temperature).

I've polished it quite a bit reducing the need for locking and
adapting it for KSE.
Locks:
1 mutex in each filedesc
protects all the fields.
protects "struct file" initialization, while a struct file
is being changed from &badfileops -> &pipeops or something
the filedesc should be locked.
1 mutex in each struct file
protects the refcount fields.
doesn't protect anything else.
the flags used for garbage collection have been moved to
f_gcflag which was the FILLER short, this doesn't need
locking because the garbage collection is a single threaded
container.
could likely be made to use a pool mutex.
1 sx lock for the global filelist.
struct file * fhold(struct file *fp);
/* increments reference count on a file */
struct file * fhold_locked(struct file *fp);
/* like fhold but expects file to locked */
struct file * ffind_hold(struct thread *, int fd);
/* finds the struct file in thread, adds one reference and
returns it unlocked */
struct file * ffind_lock(struct thread *, int fd);
/* ffind_hold, but returns file locked */
I still have to smp-safe the fget cruft, I'll get to that asap.
traps on the first instruction of signal handlers.
In trap.c:syscall(), fake a trace trap if the single-step flag was set
on entry to the kernel, not if it will be set on exit from the kernel.
This fixes bogus trace traps after the last instruction of signal handlers.
gdb-4.18 (the version in FreeBSD) still has problems with the program in
the PR. These seem to be due to bugs in gdb and not in FreeBSD, and are
fixed in gdb-5.1 (the distribution version).

mutex releases to not require flags for the cases when preemption is
not allowed:
The purpose of the MTX_NOSWITCH and SWI_NOSWITCH flags is to prevent
switching to a higher priority thread on mutex releease and swi schedule,
respectively when that switch is not safe. Now that the critical section
API maintains a per-thread nesting count, the kernel can easily check
whether or not it should switch without relying on flags from the
programmer. This fixes a few bugs in that all current callers of
swi_sched() used SWI_NOSWITCH, when in fact, only the ones called from
fast interrupt handlers and the swi_sched of softclock needed this flag.
Note that to ensure that swi_sched()'s in clock and fast interrupt
handlers do not switch, these handlers have to be explicitly wrapped
in critical_enter/exit pairs. Presently, just wrapping the handlers is
sufficient, but in the future with the fully preemptive kernel, the
interrupt must be EOI'd before critical_exit() is called. (critical_exit()
can switch due to a deferred preemption in a fully preemptive kernel.)
I've tested the changes to the interrupt code on i386 and alpha. I have
not tested ia64, but the interrupt code is almost identical to the alpha
code, so I expect it will work fine. PowerPC and ARM do not yet have
interrupt code in the tree so they shouldn't be broken. Sparc64 is
broken, but that's been ok'd by jake and tmm who will be fixing the
interrupt code for sparc64 shortly.

they were right. Fix both kenter() and kremove() for SMP by ensuring that
the tlb is flushed on other cpu's. This will directly solve random-corruption
panic issues in -stable when it is MFC'd. Better to be safe then sorry, we
can optimize this later.

Maybe MFC: immediately on re's permission
and it's associated state variables: icu_lock with the name "icu". This
renames the imen_mtx for x86 SMP, but also uses the lock to protect
access to the 8259 PIC on x86 UP. This also adds an appropriate lock to
the various Alpha chipsets which fixes problems with Alpha SMP machines
dropping interrupts with an SMP kernel.
for this file, but here goes nothing. This was my first attempt at
tidying up this file. Unfortunately, it just exposes many more horrors
in the code itself that had been masked by the eyesore that was there
before. I think this just needs to be put out of its misery.
