f26aca7b71 Bring back bus_dmasync_op_t. It is now a typedef to an int, though the
BUS_DMASYNC_ definitions remain as before.  The does not change the ABI,
and reverts the API to be a bit more compatible and flexible.  This has
survived a full 'make universe'.

5fd5bdfb84 Have the unwinder allocate memory with M_NOWAIT. The unwinder is
used by DDB and we cannot know in advance whether it's save to
sleep. It often enough isn't. We may want to pre-allocate space
to cover the most common cases without having to use malloc at
all, but that requires some analysis. We leave that for later.

a5442fbe5b Fix fu{byte|word*} and su{byte|word*}:
o  If the address was not within user space we jumped to fusufault
   where we would clear pcb_onfault and return 0. There are two
   bugs here:
   1. We never got to the point where we assigned the address of
      pcb_onfault to r15, which means that we would clobber some
      random memory location, including I/O space or ROM.
   2. We're supposed to return -1 on error.
o  Make sure we have proper memory ordering for setting pcb_onfault,
   doing the memory access to user space and clearing pcb_onfault.
   For the fu* family of functions this means that we need a mf
   instruction, because we don't have acquire semantics on stores
   and release semantics on loads (hence st;ld cannot be ordered
   without intermediate mf).

While here, implement casuptr() so that we are a (small) step
closer to supporting libthr and deobfuscate the non-implementation
of {f|s}uswintr.

2e3e224616 Revision 1.99 of this file changed the allocation request from
VM_ALLOC_INTERRUPT to VM_ALLOC_SYSTEM. There was no mention of
this in commit log as it was considered harmless. Guess what:
it does harm. WITNESS showed that we can not safely grab the
page queue lock in vm_page_alloc() in all cases as we may have
to sleep on it. Revert the request to VM_ALLOC_INTERRUPT to
circumvent this. We panic if vm_page_alloc returns 0. I'm not
entirely happy about this, but we have bigger fish to fry.

91b14ba77f pkg_create incorrectly does not add trailing '\n' when it receives
either COMMENT or DESCR from the command line. When a port is
installed, one gets both +COMMENT and +DESCR files with a trailing
'\n' character. However, +COMMENT does not contain a trailing '\n'
when it is installed from a package due to this behavior of pkg_create.

 Therefore, make sure it behaves exactly the same regardless of
where got its information; either command line or files. The modified
functions are used by pkg_create.

54155a49a5 Copy the va_list in sbuf_vprintf() before passing it to vsnprintf(),
because we could fail due to a small buffer and loop and rerun.  If this
happens, then the vsnprintf() will have already taken the arguments off
the va_list.  For i386 and others, this doesn't matter because the
va_list type is a passed as a copy.  But on powerpc and amd64, this is
fatal because the va_list is a reference to an external structure that
keeps the vararg state due to the more complicated argument passing system.
On amd64, arguments can be passed as follows:
First 6 int/pointer type arguments go in registers, the rest go on
  the memory stack.
Float and double are similar, except using SSE registers.
long double (80 bit precision) are similar except using the x87 stack.
Where the 'next argument' comes from depends on how many have been
processed so far and what type it is.  For amd64, gcc keeps this state
somewhere that is referenced by the va_list.

I found a description that showed the va_copy was required here:
http://mirrors.ccs.neu.edu/cgi-bin/unixhelp/man-cgi?va_end+9
The single unix spec doesn't mention va_copy() at all.

Anyway, the problem was that the sysctl kern.geom.conf* nodes would panic
due to walking off the end of the va_arg lists in vsnprintf.  A better fix
would be to have sbuf_vprintf() use a single pass and call kvprintf()
with a callback function that stored the results and grew the buffer
as needed.

7f947a0032 _pthread_cancel() breaks the normal lock order of first locking the
joined and then the joiner thread. There isn't an easy (sane?) way
to make it use the correct order without introducing races involving
the target thread and finding which (active or dead) list it is on. So,
after locking the canceled thread it will try to lock the joined thread
and if it fails release the first lock and try again from the top.

Introduce a new function, _spintrylock, which is simply a wrapper arround
umtx_trylock(), to help accomplish this.

9b84ee274a Start locking up the active and dead threads lists. The active threads
list is protected by a spinlock_t, but the dead list uses a pthread_mutex
because it is necessary to synchronize other threads with the garbage
collector thread. Lock/Unlock macros are used so it's easier to make
changes to the locks in the future.

The 'dead thread list' lock is intended to replace the gc mutex.
This doesn't have any practical ramifications. It simply makes it
clearer what the purpose of the lock is. The gc will use this lock,
instead of the gc mutex, to synchronize access to the dead list with
other threads.

Modify _pthread_exit() to use these two new locks instead of GIANT_LOCK,
and also to properly lock and protect thread state changes,
especially with respect to a joining thread.

The gc thread was also re-arranged to be more organized and less nested.

_pthread_join() was also modified to use the thread list locks. However,
locking and unlocking here needs special care because a thread could find
itself in a position where it's joining an exiting thread that is
waiting on the dead list lock, which this thread (joiner) holds. If the
joiner doesn't take care to lock *and* unlock in the same order they
(the joiner and the joinee) could deadlock against each other.

33c8b02fd8 The libthr code makes use of higher-level primitives (pthread_mutex_t and
pthread_cond_t) internaly in addition to the low-level spinlock_t. The
garbage collector mutex and condition variable are two such examples. This
might lead to critical sections nested within critical sections. Implement
a reference counting mechanism so that signals are masked only on the first
entry and unmasked on the last exit.

I'm not sure I like the idea of nested critical sections, but if
the library is going to use the pthread primitives it might be necessary.

52630e2ed7 Always set the hardware parse bit in the IPCB structure when this
structure, which is new to the 82550 and 82551, is used to transmit
a packet.  This appears to fix the packet truncation problem that was
observed when using 82550-based fxp cards to transmit ICMP or fragmented
UDP packets of certain lengths which only had one to three bytes in the
second and final mbuf of the packet.  This matches a note in the "Intel
8255x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Controller Family Open Source Software Developer
Manual", which says that the hardware parse bit should be set when sending
these types of packets.

There have also been unconfirmed reports of similar problems when
transmitting TCP packets, which should not be affected by the above
mentioned change because the hardware parse bit was already being set
if the stack requested hardware checksumming of the packet.  If the
problem remains, the use of the IPCB structure can be disabled to
cause the driver to fall back to using the older 82559 interface with
82550-based cards by setting
        hint.fxp.UNIT_NUMBER.ipcbxmit_disable
to a non-zero value at boot time, or using kenv to set this variable
before using kldload to load the fxp driver.

ca381c2e5a Fix a source of instability specific to an EPC userland. We return
to userland with interrupts disabled until we restore PSR. However,
it has been observed that interrupts do actually happen before they
are enabled again. This is a bit surprising and I don't know yet
what's going on exactly. Nevertheless, the code was not crafted
carefully enough to allow interrupts to happen and we could
clobber the kernel stack of another thread when interrupts did
happen.

This is what happens: we restore the (memory) stack pointer (sp)
and the register stack base prior to restoring ar.k6 and ar.k7.
This is not a problem if interrupts don't happen between setting
sp/ar.bspstore and ar.k6/ar.k7. Alas, interrupts can happen.
Since sp/ar.bspstore already point to the userland stacks, we
need to switch to the kernel stack in interrupt. However, ar.k6
and ar.k7 have not been set, which means that we were switching
to some unrelated kstack and happily clobbered the trapframe
present there if the thread to which the kstack belonged was
in kernel mode or otherwise we could have our trapframe clobbered
if that other thread enters the kernel. Nasty either way.

We now carefully restore ar.k6 prior to restoring ar.bspstore and
likewise for ar.k7 and sp. All we need is the guarantee that an
interrupt does not clobber ar.k6 or ar.k7 before we're back in
userland. That has been achieved by restoring ar.k6/ar.k7
unconditionally (see exception.s)

While here, remove the disabling of interrupts on EPC entry. It
was added as a way to "resolve" the crashes until it was understood
what was going on. I think I achieved the latter, so we can remove
the patch. Note that setting up a trapframe with interrupts
enabled has it's own share of corner cases, but it's better to
properly fixed those than to keep a mostly wrong patch around
because we're afraid to remove it...

d19c2253df Be more careful how we restore interrupts. Don't rewrite most of the
PSR only to achieve setting PSR.i back to it's previous value. It
makes it impossible to change any of the 30+ other unrelated bits
when done between intr_disable() and intr_restore(). That's bad.

Instead have intr_disable() return 1 when interrupts were previously
enabled and 0 otherwise and only enable interrupts in intr_restore()
when given a non-0 value.

This change specifically disallows using intr_restore() to disable
interrupts. The reason is simple: interrupts only need to be restored
after they are being disabled, which means that intr_restore() is
called with interrupts disabled and we only need to enable them if
they were previously enabled.

This change does not fix any bugs, other than that it bugged me...

7b4ed28b3c Consistently us the same metric to differentiate between kernel mode
and user mode. We need to take into account that the EPC syscall path
introduces a grey area in which one can argue either way, including a
third: neither.

We now use the region in which the IP address lies. Regions 5, 6 and 7
are kernel VA regions and if the IP lies any any of those regions we
assume we're in kernel mode. Hence, we can be in kernel mode even if
we're not on the kernel stack and/or have user privileges. There're
gremlins living in the twilight zone :-)

For the EPC syscall path this particularly means that the process
leaves user mode the moment it calls into the gateway page. This
makes the most sense because from a process' point of view the call
represents a request to the kernel for some service and that service
has been performed if the call returns. With the metric we picked,
this also means that we're back in user mode IFF the call returns.

6f281cac46 Add a temporary indirect patch for gcc when targeting amd64. This is to
give the cvs tree a surviving a 'make world'.  One of the two diff chunks
is already in gcc-3.3, the other has been committed to gcc's HEAD and
is in the pipeline for gcc-3.3.1 (but has not been committed yet).

The first chunk simplifies an excessively complex assembler statement
when generating switch jump tables.  The use of '.' causes as(1) to choke
on big files.  Use a simpler form instead.  This is only an issue for
TARGET_64BIT mode.

The second chunk fixes an internal compiler error when compiling
libc/stdio/vfprinf.c.  While this is supposedly only an issue for
64 bit mode, it does touch the 32 bit i386 code paths, so this patch
is only applied for TARGET_ARCH == amd64 to keep the risks down.
Breaking gcc at the 11th hour would suck.

This will be removed when it is time to import gcc-3.3.

36470ce9b8 Unconditionally restore ar.k7 (memory stack) and ar.k6 (register stack)
when returning from an interrupt. Both registers are used on interrupt
to switch to the right kernel stack, but other than that they are not
used. This means we only have to make sure they contain proper values
while in user mode. As such, we conditionally restored these registers
based on whether we returned to userland or not. A nice property of
conditionally restoring ar.k6 and ar.k7 is that it introduces two
invariants: ar.k6 always points to the bottom of the kernel stack and
ar.k7 always points to the top of the kernel stack (immediately below
the PCB we have there).

However, the EPC syscall path introduces an irregularity: there's no
"thin red line" between user and kernel. There's a grey area that's a
couple of instructions wide. Any interruption in that grey area is
bound to see an inconsistent state. One such state is that we're in
kernel space for all practical purposes, but we still need to have
ar.k6 and ar.k7 restored as if we're in userland.

Thus: restore ar.k6 and ar.k7 unconditionally at the cost of losing
a valuable invariant. Both registers now hold the extend of the
usable portion of the kernel stack at any interrupt nesting, which
when in userland mean the bottom and the top of the kstack.

b5e718b143 libstdc++.so breaks on amd64 due to bogons in our build, so prevent the
shared library being built for amd64.  The problem is that libstdc++.so
is produced with 'cc -shared'.  This has an internal -lgcc, which is
not PIC.  libstdc++.so uses exceptions and the dwarf2 unwinder, which
are in libgcc.a.  As a result, non-PIC code gets pulled into libstdc++.so.
This is fatal on amd64 when certain relocation types cannot be used in
PIC mode.  The official FSF solution to this is to have libgcc.so with
internal ELF symbol versioning to solve the ABI problem, but I dont want
to fight that battle yet.  I tried making libgcc_pic.a (which worked
fine), but thats not something for the 11th hour before a release.
