c500808674 Change the static struct sysentvec and struct Elf_Brandinfo initializers
to the C99 style. At least, it is easier to read sysent definitions
that way, and search for the actual instances of sigcode etc.

Explicitely initialize sysentvec.sv_maxssiz that was missed in most
sysvecs.

d31fa36475 The kernel implemented 'memcmp' is an alias for 'bcmp'. However, memcmp
and bcmp are not the same thing.  'man bcmp' states that the return is
"non-zero" if the two byte strings are not identical.  Where as,
'man memcmp' states that the return is the "difference between the
first two differing bytes (treated as unsigned char values" if the
two byte strings are not identical.

So provide a proper memcmp(9), but it is a C implementation not a tuned
assembly implementation.  Therefore bcmp(9) should be preferred over memcmp(9).

cc3116a938 Integrate the new MPSAFE TTY layer to the FreeBSD operating system.
The last half year I've been working on a replacement TTY layer for the
FreeBSD kernel. The new TTY layer was designed to improve the following:

- Improved driver model:

  The old TTY layer has a driver model that is not abstract enough to
  make it friendly to use. A good example is the output path, where the
  device drivers directly access the output buffers. This means that an
  in-kernel PPP implementation must always convert network buffers into
  TTY buffers.

  If a PPP implementation would be built on top of the new TTY layer
  (still needs a hooks layer, though), it would allow the PPP
  implementation to directly hand the data to the TTY driver.

- Improved hotplugging:

  With the old TTY layer, it isn't entirely safe to destroy TTY's from
  the system. This implementation has a two-step destructing design,
  where the driver first abandons the TTY. After all threads have left
  the TTY, the TTY layer calls a routine in the driver, which can be
  used to free resources (unit numbers, etc).

  The pts(4) driver also implements this feature, which means
  posix_openpt() will now return PTY's that are created on the fly.

- Improved performance:

  One of the major improvements is the per-TTY mutex, which is expected
  to improve scalability when compared to the old Giant locking.
  Another change is the unbuffered copying to userspace, which is both
  used on TTY device nodes and PTY masters.

Upgrading should be quite straightforward. Unlike previous versions,
existing kernel configuration files do not need to be changed, except
when they reference device drivers that are listed in UPDATING.

1021d43b56 Commit step 1 of the vimage project, (network stack)
virtualization work done by Marko Zec (zec@).

This is the first in a series of commits over the course
of the next few weeks.

Mark all uses of global variables to be virtualized
with a V_ prefix.
Use macros to map them back to their global names for
now, so this is a NOP change only.

We hope to have caught at least 85-90% of what is needed
so we do not invalidate a lot of outstanding patches again.

4d6a9685e8 Remove the unused major/minor numbers from iodev and memdev.
Now that st_rdev is being automatically generated by the kernel, there
is no need to define static major/minor numbers for the iodev and
memdev. We still need the minor numbers for the memdev, however, to
distinguish between /dev/mem and /dev/kmem.

c628123952 Work-around a compiler optimization bug, that broke libthr. Massive
inlining resulted in constant propagation to the extend that cmpval
was known to the compiler to be URWLOCK_WRITE_OWNER (= 0x80000000U).
Unfortunately, instead of zero-extending the unsigned constant, it
was sign-extended. As such, the cmpxchg instruction was comparing
0x0000000080000000LU to 0xffffffff80000000LU and obviously didn't
perform the exchange.
But, since the value returned by cmpxhg equalled cmpval (when zero-
extended), the _thr_rtld_lock_release() function thought the exchange
did happen and as such returned as if having released the lock. This
was not the case. Subsequent locking requests found rw_state non-zero
and the thread in question entered the kernel and block indefinitely.

The work-around is to zero-extend by casting to uint64_t.

 - Add a new MD routine, cpu_wake_idle() to wakeup idle threads who are
   suspended in cpu specific states.  This function can fail and cause the

8d647da1ed Now that all platforms use genclock, shuffle things around slightly
for better structure.

Much of this is related to <sys/clock.h>, which should really have
been called <sys/calendar.h>, but unless and until we need the name,
the repocopy can wait.

In general the kernel does not know about minutes, hours, days,
timezones, daylight savings time, leap-years and such.  All that
is theoretically a matter for userland only.

Parts of kernel code does however care: badly designed filesystems
store timestamps in local time and RTC chips almost universally
track time in a YY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format, and sometimes in local
timezone instead of UTC.  For this we have <sys/clock.h>

<sys/time.h> on the other hand, deals with time_t, timeval, timespec
and so on.  These know only seconds and fractions thereof.

Move inittodr() and resettodr() prototypes to <sys/time.h>.
Retain the names as it is one of the few surviving PDP/VAX references.

Move startrtclock() to <machine/clock.h> on relevant platforms, it
is a MD call between machdep.c/clock.c.  Remove references to it
elsewhere.

Remove a lot of unnecessary <sys/clock.h> includes.

Move the machdep.disable_rtc_set sysctl to subr_rtc.c where it belongs.
XXX: should be kern.disable_rtc_set really, it's not MD.

d8346deefc Revision 1.9 changes the delivery mode from the magic constant 0
(i.e. fixed delivery) to SAPIC_DELMODE_LOWPRI. While the commit
log doesn't mention the change in behaviour, it is believed to be
deliberate. In the last 5.5 years this hasn't been a problem. Nor
do I think did it make any difference, but who knows. However, I
do know that it break SMP support for Montecito-based machines.
Switch back to fixed-CPU delivery so that SMP works again. This
gives me some time to look more closely at the problem, as well
as make sure the I-cache validation as it's implemented currently
is sufficient in SMP configurations...

8efb03d60e - Add the interrupt vector number to intr_event_create so MI code can

 - Add support to cpuset for binding hardware interrupts.  This has the
   side effect of binding any ithread associated with the hard interrupt.
   As per restrictions imposed by MD code we can only bind interrupts to
   a single cpu presently.  Interrupts can be 'unbound' by binding them
   to all cpus.

- Rename the intr_event 'eoi', 'disable', and 'enable' hooks to

  Also, add a comment describe what the MI code expects them to do.
- On amd64, i386, and powerpc this is effectively a NOP.
- On arm, don't bother masking the interrupt unless the ithread is
  scheduled in the non-INTR_FILTER case to match what INTR_FILTER did.
  Also, don't bother unmasking the interrupt in the post_filter case if
  we never masked it.  The INTR_FILTER case had been doing this by having
  arm_unmask_irq for the post_filter (formerly 'eoi') hook.
- On ia64, stray interrupts are now masked for the non-INTR_FILTER case.
  They were already masked in the INTR_FILTER case.
- On sparc64, use the a NULL pre_ithread hook and use intr_enable_eoi() for
  both the 'post_filter' and 'post_ithread' hooks to match what the
  non-INTR_FILTER code did.
- On sun4v, retire the ithread wrapper hack by using an appropriate
  'post_ithread' hook instead (it's what 'post_ithread'/'enable' was
  designed to do even in 5.x).

fa71439e44 The "free-lance" timer in the i8254 is only used for the speaker
these days, so de-generalize the acquire_timer/release_timer api
to just deal with speakers.

The new (optional) MD functions are:
	timer_spkr_acquire()
	timer_spkr_release()
and
	timer_spkr_setfreq()

the last of which configures the timer to generate a tone of a given
frequency, in Hz instead of 1/1193182th of seconds.

Drop entirely timer2 on pc98, it is not used anywhere at all.

Move sysbeep() to kern/tty_cons.c and use the timer_spkr*() if
they exist, and do nothing otherwise.

Remove prototypes and empty acquire-/release-timer() and sysbeep()
functions from the non-beeping archs.

This eliminate the need for the speaker driver to know about
i8254frequency at all.  In theory this makes the speaker driver MI,
contingent on the timer_spkr_*() functions existing but the driver
does not know this yet and still attaches to the ISA bus.

Syscons is more tricky, in one function, sc_tone(), it knows the hz
and things are just fine.

In the other function, sc_bell() it seems to get the period from
the KDMKTONE ioctl in terms if 1/1193182th second, so we hardcode
the 1193182 and leave it at that.  It's probably not important.

Change a few other sysbeep() uses which obviously knew that the
argument was in terms of i8254 frequency, and leave alone those
that look like people thought sysbeep() took frequency in hertz.

This eliminates the knowledge of i8254_freq from all but the actual
clock.c code and the prof_machdep.c on amd64 and i386, where I think
it would be smart to ask for help from the timecounters anyway [TBD].

9c113163fb Add preliminary support for binding interrupts to CPUs:
- Add a new intr_event method ie_assign_cpu() that is invoked when the MI
  code wishes to bind an interrupt source to an individual CPU.  The MD
  code may reject the binding with an error.  If an assign_cpu function
  is not provided, then the kernel assumes the platform does not support
  binding interrupts to CPUs and fails all requests to do so.
- Bind ithreads to CPUs on their next execution loop once an interrupt
  event is bound to a CPU.  Only shared ithreads are bound.  We currently
  leave private ithreads for drivers using filters + ithreads in the
  INTR_FILTER case unbound.
- A new intr_event_bind() routine is used to bind an interrupt event to
  a CPU.
- Implement binding on amd64 and i386 by way of the existing pic_assign_cpu
  PIC method.
- For x86, provide a 'intr_bind(IRQ, cpu)' wrapper routine that looks up
  an interrupt source and binds its interrupt event to the specified CPU.
  MI code can currently (ab)use this by doing:

	intr_bind(rman_get_start(irq_res), cpu);

  however, I plan to add a truly MI interface (probably a bus_bind_intr(9))
  where the implementation in the x86 nexus(4) driver would end up calling
  intr_bind() internally.

64ab71ccbd Rework how the nexus(4) device works on x86 to better handle the idea of
different "platforms" on x86 machines.  The existing code already handles
having two platforms: ACPI and legacy.  However, the existing approach was
rather hardcoded and difficult to extend.  These changes take the approach
that each x86 hardware platform should provide its own nexus(4) driver (it
can inherit most of its behavior from the default legacy nexus(4) driver)
which is responsible for probing for the platform and performing
appropriate platform-specific setup during attach (such as adding a
platform-specific bus device).  This does mean changing the x86 platform
busses to no longer use an identify routine for probing, but to move that
logic into their matching nexus(4) driver instead.
- Make the default nexus(4) driver in nexus.c on i386 and amd64 handle the
  legacy platform.  It's probe routine now returns BUS_PROBE_GENERIC so it
  can be overriden.
- Expose a nexus_init_resources() routine which initializes the various
  resource managers so that subclassed nexus(4) drivers can invoke it from
  their attach routine.
- The legacy nexus(4) driver explicitly adds a legacy0 device in its
  attach routine.
- The ACPI driver no longer contains an new-bus identify method.  Instead
  it exposes a public function (acpi_identify()) which is a probe routine
  that the MD nexus(4) drivers can use to probe for ACPI.  All of the
  probe logic in acpi_probe() is now moved into acpi_identify() and
  acpi_probe() is just a stub.
- On i386 and amd64, an ACPI-specific nexus(4) driver checks for ACPI via
  acpi_identify() and claims the nexus0 device if the probe succeeds.  It
  then explicitly adds an acpi0 device in its attach routine.
- The legacy(4) driver no longer knows anything about the acpi0 device.
- On ia64 if acpi_identify() fails you basically end up with no devices.
  This matches the previous behavior where the old acpi_identify() would
  fail to add an acpi0 device again leaving you with no devices.
