useful for accessing more than 1 page of contiguous physical memory, and
to use 4mb tlb entries instead of 8k. This requires that the system only
use the direct mapped addresses when they have the same virtual colour as
all other mappings of the same page, instead of being able to choose the
colour and cachability of the mapping.
- Adapt the physical page copying and zeroing functions to account for not
being able to choose the colour or cachability of the direct mapped
address. This adds a lot more cases to handle. Basically when a page has
a different colour than its direct mapped address we have a choice between
bypassing the data cache and using physical addresses directly, which
requires a cache flush, or mapping it at the right colour, which requires
a tlb flush. For now we choose to map the page and do the tlb flush.
This will allows the direct mapped addresses to be used for more things
that don't require normal pmap handling, including mapping the vm_page
structures, the message buffer, temporary mappings for crash dumps, and will
provide greater benefit for implementing uma_small_alloc, due to the much
greater tlb coverage.
- Put the kernel tsb before before the kernel load address, below
VM_MIN_KERNEL_ADDRESS, instead of after the kernel where it consumes
usable kva. This is magic mapped so the virtual address is irrelevant,
it just needs to be out of the way.
a mapping belongs to by setting it in the vm_page_t structure that backs
the tsb page that the tte for a mapping is in. This allows the pmap that
a mapping belongs to to be found without keeping a pointer to it in the
tte itself.
- Remove the pmap pointer from struct tte and use the space to make the
tte pv lists doubly linked (TAILQs), like on other architectures. This
makes entering or removing a mapping O(1) instead of O(n) where n is the
number of pmaps a page is mapped by (including kernel_pmap).
- Use atomic ops for setting and clearing bits in the ttes, now that they
return the old value and can be easily used for this purpose.
- Use __builtin_memset for zeroing ttes instead of bzero, so that gcc will
inline it (4 inline stores using %g0 instead of a function call).
- Initially set the virtual colour for all the vm_page_ts to be equal to their
physical colour. This will be more useful once uma_small_alloc is
implemented, but basically pages with virtual colour equal to phsyical
colour are easier to handle at the pmap level because they can be safely
accessed through cachable direct virtual to physical mappings with that
colour, without fear of causing illegal dcache aliases.
In total these changes give a minor performance improvement, about 1%
reduction in system time during buildworld.
namely the ones for the timers, error handling and power management.
The registers for the timers, power management and PCI bus b errors are
reserved on Sabres (US-IIi) and can lead to false matches there.
Since all of them are never used for devices on the bus, they can be omitted
safely.

import, as it breaks the relocation kernel modules built with the new
binutils.
Note that this, together with the binutils import, marks a kernel module
flag day on sparc64: modules built with the old binutils will not work
with new kernels and vice versa. Mismatches will result in panics.

2.) Skip the mapping registers for slot a2 and a3 on "psycho" bridges,
since they are not present there. Again, this could cause false matches,
which would result in the interrupt being delivered at most once.

this is now done on all machines except for some known problematic ones.
Add an additional guard to make sure that the interrupt numbers are
in the correct range before swizzling. This should catch any remaining
models for which the swizzle is inappropriate.
Correct the swizzle calculation to account for the fact that the parent
interrupt numbers to be swizzled are 1-based.

Previously these were libc functions but were requested to
be made into system calls for atomicity and to coalesce what
might be two entrances into the kernel (signal mask setting
and floating point trap) into one.

to reflect its new location, and add page queue and flag locking.
Notes: (1) alpha, i386, and ia64 had identical implementations
of pmap_collect() in terms of machine-independent interfaces;
(2) sparc64 doesn't require it; (3) powerpc had it as a TODO.
1. At least some Netra t1 models have PCI buses with no associated
interrupt map, but obviously expect the PCI swizzle to be done with
the interrupt number from the higher level as intpin. In this case,
the mapping also needs to continue at parent bus nodes.
To handle that, add a quirk table based on the "name" property of
the root node to avoid breaking other boxen. This property is now
retrieved and printed at boot.
2. On SPARCengine Ultra AX machines, interrupt numbers are not mapped
at all, and full interrupt numbers (not just INOs) are given in
the interrupt properties. This is more or less cosmetical; the
PCI interrupt numbers would be wrong, but the psycho resource
allocation method would pass the right numbers on anyway.

not look like the prerequisites to fill it in properly will be in the tree
for the upcoming release, but it's mostly done, so there is no need for these
to stay around to remind us.
for sparc64 from trap #9 to trap #65. This is one of the ABI "blessed"
system call vectors and is different from any other system that we might
want to emulate, making the emulation easier by reducing the number of
code paths that need to be shared. Compatibility with old applications
is provided with COMPAT_FREEBSD4.
Add defines for a few special traps that we may need to implement for
compatibility with 32bit applications, and add comments on which vectors
are used for what in other systems, and which are available.
Pass magic flags to trap() for deprecated or unimplemented system call
vectors so they will deliver SIGSYS instead of SIGILL.
This piggy backs nicely with the recent sigaction(2) system call number
change, and provided the rules are followed for upgrading past it, this
change should not be noticed.
handling clean and functional as 5.x evolves. This allows some of the
nasty bandaids in the 5.x codepaths to be unwound.
Encapsulate 4.x signal handling under COMPAT_FREEBSD4 (there is an
anti-foot-shooting measure in place, 5.x folks need this for a while) and
finish encapsulating the older stuff under COMPAT_43. Since the ancient
stuff is required on alpha (longjmp(3) passes a 'struct osigcontext *'
to the current sigreturn(2), instead of the 'ucontext_t *' that sigreturn
is supposed to take), add a compile time check to prevent foot shooting
there too. Add uniform COMPAT_43 stubs for ia64/sparc64/powerpc.

same size. Add some fields that previously overlapped with something else
or were missing.
- Make struct regs and struct mcontext (minus floating point) the same as
struct trapframe so converting between them is easy (null).
- Add space for saving floating point state to struct mcontext. This requires
that it be 64 byte aligned.
- Add assertions that none of these structures change size, as they are part
of the ABI.
- Remove some dead code in sendsig().
- Save and restore %gsr in struct trapframe. Remember to restore %fsr.
- Add some comments to exception.S.
