code. Both tasks are not always performed completely by the firmware.
The former is required to get some e450 models to boot; the latter fixes
the repeated fifo underruns with hme(4)s and gem(4)s observed on some
machines (and probably performance problems with other peripherals as
well).
in their tlb which the prom doesn't clear out, so we have to do so manually
before mapping the kernel page table or the cpu can hang due various
conditions which cause undefined behaviour from the tlb.
- ktrace no longer requires Giant so do ktrace syscall events before and
after acquiring and releasing Giant, respectively.
- For i386, ia32 syscalls on ia64, powerpc, and sparc64, get rid of the
goto bad hack and instead use the model on ia64 and alpha were we
skip the actual syscall invocation if error != 0. This fixes a bug
where if we the copyin() of the arguments failed for a syscall that
was not marked MP safe, we would try to release Giant when we had
not acquired it.
the pv lists in the vm_page, even unmanaged kernel mappings. This is so
that the virtual cachability of these mappings can be tracked when a page
is mapped to more than one virtual address. All virtually cachable
mappings of a physical page must have the same virtual colour, or illegal
alises can be created in the data cache. This is a bit tricky because we
still have to recognize managed and unmanaged mappings, even though they
are all on the pv lists.
value of the tag or data field.
Add macros for getting the page shift, size and mask for the physical page
that a tte maps (which may be one of several sizes).
Use the new cache functions for invalidating single pages.
a floating point instruction into a 6-bit register number for
double and quad arguments.
Make use of the new INSFPdq_RN macro where apporpriate; this
is required for correctly handling the "high" fp registers
(>= %f32).
Fix a number of bugs related to the handling of the high registers
which were caused by using __fpu_[gs]etreg() where __fpu_[gs]etreg64()
should be used (the former can only access the low, single-precision,
registers).

Rearrange things slightly so that the contents of the tag access
register are read and restored outside of the macros. The intention
is to pass the page size to look up as an argument to the macros.
i386/ia64/alpha - catch up to sparc64/ppc:
- replace pmap_kernel() with refs to kernel_pmap
- change kernel_pmap pointer to (&kernel_pmap_store)
(this is a speedup since ld can set these at compile/link time)
all platforms (as suggested by jake):
- gc unused pmap_reference
- gc unused pmap_destroy
- gc unused struct pmap.pm_count
(we never used pm_count - we track address space sharing at the vmspace)
the symbol index defined by the relocation. The elf_lookup() support
function is to be used by elf_reloc() when symbol lookups need to be
done. The elf_lookup() function operates on the symbol index and
will do a symbol name based lookup when such is required, otherwise
it uses the symbol index directly. This solves the problem seen on
ia64 where the symbol hash table does not contain local symbols and
a symbol name based lookup would fail for those symbols.
Don't pass the symbol name to elf_reloc(), as it isn't used any more.
user stack in response to a failed window fill, allowing the process to be
killed if its wrong. This caused user programs which misalign their stack
pointer to get stuck in an infinite loop at the kernel-userland boundary,
which is mostly harmless.
The same thing causes a fatal RED state exception on OpenBSD and probably
NetBSD.
