in OpenSolaris as they probably know how to interpret the value Sun
puts into these registers (previously, the latency calculated for
66MHz was most likely wrong) and for bridges additionally set up the
secondary latency register. Also set up the bridge control register
the way it's done in OpenSolaris. As the latency register don't apply
to PCI-Express and the bridge control setup wasn't tested on sun4v

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.

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.

no particular reason for them to be implemented in assembler and

actually spitfire-only) values.

- Change pmap_print_tlb() to use ldxa() rather than re-rolling it

As clearly mentioned on the mailing lists, there is a list of drivers
that have not been ported to the MPSAFE TTY layer yet. Remove them from
the kernel configuration files. This means people can now still use
these drivers if they explicitly put them in their kernel configuration
file, which is good.
People should keep in mind that after August 10, these drivers will not
work anymore. Even though owners of the hardware are capable of getting
these drivers working again, I will see if I can at least get them to a
compilable state (if time permits).

"__volatile", the compiler might add the inline assembler instructions

Now that st_rdev is being automatically generated by the kernel, there

- Add a new MD routine, cpu_wake_idle() to wakeup idle threads who are

o Replace the post_filter and post_inthread hooks registered when
creating the interrupt events with just ic_clear as on sparc64 we
don't need to do any disable->EOI->enable dance to unblock all but
the relevant interrupt while running the filter or handler; just
not clearing the interrupt already has the same effect.
o Merge from amd64/i386:
- Split the intr_table_lock into an sx lock used for most things,
and a spin lock to protect intrcnt_index.
- Add support for binding interrupts to CPUs, including for the
bus_bind_intr(9) interface, a assign_cpu hook and initially

have separate configuration spaces so by definition they implement
different PCI domains. Thus change psycho(4) to use PCI domains
instead of reenumerating all PCI busses so they have globally unique
bus numbers and drop support for reenumerating busses in the OFW PCI
code.
According to CVS history reenumeration was also required in order to
get some E450 to boot but given that no other open source kernel
changes the PCI bus numbers assigned by the firmware I believe the
real problem was that the old code used the bus number as the device
number for the PCI busses and unlike most of the other machines the
firmwares of the problematic ones don't use disjoint PCI bus numbers
across the host-PCI-bridges.

- 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

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).

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].
