simple operations like pmap_extract() not to involve any global state.
This substantially reduces lock coverages for the global table lock and
improves concurrency.
sync performs a strict superset of the functions of eieio, so using both
is redundant. While here, expand bus barriers to all bus_space operations,
since many drivers do not correctly use bus_space_barrier().
In principle, we can also replace sync just with eieio, for a significant
performance increase, but it remains to be seen whether any poorly-written
drivers currently depend on the side effects of sync to properly function.

- Change bus_dma tags to use bus_addr_t instead of bus_size_t for boundary

These allow boundary constraints to be fully expressed for cases where
sizeof(bus_addr_t) != sizeof(bus_size_t). Specifically, it allows a
driver to properly specify a 4GB boundary in a PAE kernel.
Note that this cannot be safely MFC'd without a lot of compat shims due

is that it possible to take an SLB fault at any time, on any address, for
any reason, at any point in the kernel.
This lets us do two important things. First, it removes the (soft) 16 GB RAM

Second, it lets the kernel tolerate poorly designed hypervisors that
have a tendency to fail to restore the SLB properly after a hypervisor

curthread-accessing part of mtx_{,un}lock(9) when using a r210623-style
curthread implementation on sparc64, crashing the kernel in its early
cycles as PCPU isn't set up, yet (and can't be set up as OFW is one of the
things we need for that, which leads to a chicken-and-egg problem). What
happens is that due to the fact that the idea of r210623 actually is to
allow the compiler to cache invocations of curthread, it factors out
obtaining curthread needed for both mtx_lock(9) and mtx_unlock(9) to
before the branch based on kobj_mutex_inited when compiling the kernel
without the debugging options. So change kobj_class_compile_static(9)
to just never acquire kobj_mtx, effectively restricting it to its
documented use, and add a kobj_init_static(9) for initializing objects
using a class compiled with the former and that also avoids using mutex(9)
(and malloc(9)). Also assert in both of these functions that they are
used in their intended way only.
While at it, inline kobj_register_method() and kobj_unregister_method()
as there wasn't much point for factoring them out in the first place
and so that a reader of the code has to figure out the locking for
fewer functions missing a KOBJ_ASSERT.

with a high interrupt rate where the thread looking up the value of
curthread could be preempted and migrated between obtaining the PCPU
pointer and reading the value of pc_curthread, resulting in curthread being
observed to be the current thread on the thread's original CPU. This played
merry havoc with the system, in particular with mutexes. Many thanks to

SLIST_INSERT_HEAD(), which means it is in reverse order of enumeration
and so AP startup would always fail in such situations (causing a machine

already supported nested PICs, but was limited to having a nested
AT-PIC only. With G5 support the need for nested OpenPIC controllers
needed to be added. This was done the wrong way and broke the MPC8555
eval system in the process.
OFW, as well as FDT, describe the interrupt routing in terms of a
controller and an interrupt pin on it. This needs to be mapped to a
flat and global resource: the IRQ. The IRQ is the same as the PCI
intline and as such needs to be representable in 8 bits. Secondly,
ISA support pretty much dictates that IRQ 0-15 should be reserved
for ISA interrupts, because of the internal workins of south bridges.
Both were broken.
This change reverts revision 209298 for a big part and re-implements
it simpler. In particular:
o The id() method of the PIC I/F is removed again. It's not needed.
o The openpic_attach() function has been changed to take the OFW
or FDT phandle of the controller as a second argument. All bus
attachments that previously used openpic_attach() as the attach
method of the device I/F now implement as bus-specific method
and pass the phandle_t to the renamed openpic_attach().
o Change powerpc_register_pic() to take a few more arguments. In
particular:
- Pass the number of IPIs specificly. The number of IRQs carved
out for a PIC is the sum of the number of int. pins and IPIs.
- Pass a flag indicating whether the PIC is an AT-PIC or not.
This tells the interrupt framework whether to assign IRQ 0-15
or some other range.
o Until we implement proper multi-pass bus enumeration, we have to
handle the case where we need to map from PIC+pin to IRQ *before*
the PIC gets registered. This is done in a similar way as before,
but rather than carving out 256 IRQs per PIC, we carve out 128
IRQs (124 pins + 4 IPIs). This is supposed to handle the G5 case,
but should really be fixed properly using multiple passes.
o Have the interrupt framework set root_pic in most cases and not
put that burden in PIC drivers (for the most part).
o Remove powerpc_ign_lookup() and replace it with powerpc_get_irq().
Remove IGN_SHIFT, INTR_INTLINE and INTR_IGN.
Related to the above, fix the Freescale PCI controller driver, broken
by the FDT code. Besides not attaching properly, bus numbers were
assigned improperly and enumeration was broken in general. This
prevented the AT PIC from being discovered and interrupt routing to
work properly. Consequently, the ata(4) controller stopped functioning.
Fix the driver, and FDT PCI support, enough to get the MPC8555CDS
going again. The FDT PCI code needs a whole lot more work.
No breakages are expected, but lackiong G5 hardware, it's possible
that there are unpleasant side-effects. At least MPC85xx support is
back to where it was 7 months ago -- it's amazing how badly support
can be broken in just 7 months...

concurrency bug. Since all SLB/SR entries were invalidated during an
exception, a decrementer exception could cause the user segment to be
invalidated during a copyin()/copyout() without a thread switch that
would cause it to be restored from the PCB, potentially causing the
operation to continue on invalid memory. This is now handled by explicit
restoration of segment 12 from the PCB on 32-bit systems and a check in
the Data Segment Exception handler on 64-bit.
While here, cause copyin()/copyout() to check whether the requested
user segment is already installed, saving some pipeline flushes, and
fix the synchronization primitives around the mtsr and slbmte
instructions to prevent accessing stale segments.
