printf()s,
. FD_GSTAT obtains the last FDC operation state, if any,
. FDOPT_NOERRLOG (temporarily) turns off kernel printf() floppy

. FDOPT_NOERROR makes the kernel ignore an FDC error, thus can

Prime consumer of the last features will be fdread(1), to be committed

been made machine independent and various other adjustments have been made
to support Alpha SMP.
- It splits the per-process portions of hardclock() and statclock() off
into hardclock_process() and statclock_process() respectively. hardclock()
and statclock() call the *_process() functions for the current process so
that UP systems will run as before. For SMP systems, it is simply necessary
to ensure that all other processors execute the *_process() functions when the
main clock functions are triggered on one CPU by an interrupt. For the alpha
4100, clock interrupts are delievered in a staggered broadcast fashion, so
we simply call hardclock/statclock on the boot CPU and call the *_process()
functions on the secondaries. For x86, we call statclock and hardclock as
usual and then call forward_hardclock/statclock in the MD code to send an IPI
to cause the AP's to execute forwared_hardclock/statclock which then call the
*_process() functions.
- forward_signal() and forward_roundrobin() have been reworked to be MI and to
involve less hackery. Now the cpu doing the forward sets any flags, etc. and
sends a very simple IPI_AST to the other cpu(s). AST IPIs now just basically
return so that they can execute ast() and don't bother with setting the
astpending or needresched flags themselves. This also removes the loop in
forward_signal() as sched_lock closes the race condition that the loop worked
around.
- need_resched(), resched_wanted() and clear_resched() have been changed to take
a process to act on rather than assuming curproc so that they can be used to
implement forward_roundrobin() as described above.
- Various other SMP variables have been moved to a MI subr_smp.c and a new
header sys/smp.h declares MI SMP variables and API's. The IPI API's from
machine/ipl.h have moved to machine/smp.h which is included by sys/smp.h.
- The globaldata_register() and globaldata_find() functions as well as the
SLIST of globaldata structures has become MI and moved into subr_smp.c.
Also, the globaldata list is only available if SMP support is compiled in.

saves 32 registers) to do on every context switch. This is only required
for SMP, so only do it there.
We should also look at moving the critical enter/exit out to the callers
structure. This field keeps track of how many levels deep we are nested
into the kernel. The nesting level is bumped at the start of a trap,
interrupt, syscall, or exception and is decremented on return. This is
used to detect the case when the kernel is returning back to a kernel
context in exception_return(). If we are returning to the kernel we need
to update the globaldata pointer register saved in the stack frame in case
we have switched CPU's between taking the initial interrupt that saved the
frame and returning. If we don't do this fixup it is possible for a CPU to
use the wrong per-cpu data. On UP systems this is not a problem, so the
code is conditional on SMP.
A count was used instead of simply checking the process status register in
the frame during exception_return() since there are critical sections at
the very start and end of a trap, exception, or interrupt from userland in
which we could trash the t7 register being used in userland. The counter
is incremented after adn before these critical sections respectively so
that we will not overwrite the saved t7 register if we are interrupted
during one of these critical sections.
This is will be required to prevent lowering the ipl when a critical_enter()
is present in the interrupt path when handling a machine check.

- don't do the stack overflow sanity check on MP systems -- p->p_addr
will be malloc'ed memory (not K0SEG) and the check will fail.
- don't ignore clock interrupts on secondaries. Alphas apparently
roundrobin clock interrupts to all cpus, so we're going to take clock
interrupts on all CPUS and not forward them.
- use the unique value to save the per-cpu globalp struct like the
comment says
- don't lower the ipl to ALPHA_PSL_IPL_HIGH: we may have a pending machine
check to take and we're not prepared for that yet, as we haven't setup
our interrupt entry points. (this may only happen on sable/lynx)

"inside" of locked regions. That is, an acquire atomic operation will
always enforce a memory barrier after the atomic operation and a release
operation will always enforce a memory barrier before the atomic
operation.
- Explicitly use 'mb' instead of 'wmb' in release atomic operations. The
'wmb' memory barrier is not strong enough to guarantee coherence with
other processors. This is effectively a nop since alpha_wmb() actually
performs a 'mb' and not a 'wmb', but I wanted the code to be more
correct since at some point in the future alpha_wmb()'s implementation
may switch to being a real 'wmb'.
we should call ast(). This allows us to branch to a separate Lkernelret
label so we can fixup the saved t7 register in the trapframe. Otherwise
we can run into a problem on SMP systems where a process is interrupted by
a trap or interrupt on one CPU, migrates to another CPU, and then returns
with the t7 in the stack clobbering the CPU's t7. As a result, two CPU's
would both point to the same per-CPU data and things would go downhill from
there.

- Introduce lock classes and lock objects. Each lock class specifies a
name and set of flags (or properties) shared by all locks of a given
type. Currently there are three lock classes: spin mutexes, sleep
mutexes, and sx locks. A lock object specifies properties of an
additional lock along with a lock name and all of the extra stuff needed
to make witness work with a given lock. This abstract lock stuff is
defined in sys/lock.h. The lockmgr constants, types, and prototypes have
been moved to sys/lockmgr.h. For temporary backwards compatability,
sys/lock.h includes sys/lockmgr.h.
- Replace proc->p_spinlocks with a per-CPU list, PCPU(spinlocks), of spin
locks held. By making this per-cpu, we do not have to jump through
magic hoops to deal with sched_lock changing ownership during context
switches.
- Replace proc->p_heldmtx, formerly a list of held sleep mutexes, with
proc->p_sleeplocks, which is a list of held sleep locks including sleep
mutexes and sx locks.
- Add helper macros for logging lock events via the KTR_LOCK KTR logging
level so that the log messages are consistent.
- Add some new flags that can be passed to mtx_init():
- MTX_NOWITNESS - specifies that this lock should be ignored by witness.
This is used for the mutex that blocks a sx lock for example.
- MTX_QUIET - this is not new, but you can pass this to mtx_init() now
and no events will be logged for this lock, so that one doesn't have
to change all the individual mtx_lock/unlock() operations.
- All lock objects maintain an initialized flag. Use this flag to export
a mtx_initialized() macro that can be safely called from drivers. Also,
we on longer walk the all_mtx list if MUTEX_DEBUG is defined as witness
performs the corresponding checks using the initialized flag.
- The lock order reversal messages have been improved to output slightly
more accurate file and line numbers.
and change the u_int mtx_saveintr member of struct mtx to a critical_t
mtx_savecrit.
- On the alpha we no longer need a custom _get_spin_lock() macro to avoid
an extra PAL call, so remove it.
- Partially fix using mutexes with WITNESS in modules. Change all the
_mtx_{un,}lock_{spin,}_flags() macros to accept explicit file and line
parameters and rename them to use a prefix of two underscores. Inside
of kern_mutex.c, generate wrapper functions for
_mtx_{un,}lock_{spin,}_flags() (only using a prefix of one underscore)
that are called from modules. The macros mtx_{un,}lock_{spin,}_flags()
are mapped to the __mtx_* macros inside of the kernel to inline the
usual case of mutex operations and map to the internal _mtx_* functions
in the module case so that modules will use WITNESS and KTR logging if
the kernel is compiled with support for it.

- Add implementations of the critical_enter() and critical_exit() functions
and remove restore_intr() and save_intr().
- Remove the somewhat bogus disable_intr() and enable_intr() functions on
