APIC interrupt pin based on the settings in the corresponding interrupt
source structure.
- Use ioapic_program_intpin() in place of manual frobbing of the intpin
configuration in ioapic_program_destination() and ioapic_register().
- Use ioapic_program_intpin() to implement suspend/resume support for I/O
APICs.
mbuma is an Mbuf & Cluster allocator built on top of a number of
extensions to the UMA framework, all included herein.
Extensions to UMA worth noting:
- Better layering between slab <-> zone caches; introduce
Keg structure which splits off slab cache away from the
zone structure and allows multiple zones to be stacked
on top of a single Keg (single type of slab cache);
perhaps we should look into defining a subset API on
top of the Keg for special use by malloc(9),
for example.
- UMA_ZONE_REFCNT zones can now be added, and reference
counters automagically allocated for them within the end
of the associated slab structures. uma_find_refcnt()
does a kextract to fetch the slab struct reference from
the underlying page, and lookup the corresponding refcnt.
mbuma things worth noting:
- integrates mbuf & cluster allocations with extended UMA
and provides caches for commonly-allocated items; defines
several zones (two primary, one secondary) and two kegs.
- change up certain code paths that always used to do:
m_get() + m_clget() to instead just use m_getcl() and
try to take advantage of the newly defined secondary
Packet zone.
- netstat(1) and systat(1) quickly hacked up to do basic
stat reporting but additional stats work needs to be
done once some other details within UMA have been taken
care of and it becomes clearer to how stats will work
within the modified framework.
From the user perspective, one implication is that the
NMBCLUSTERS compile-time option is no longer used. The
maximum number of clusters is still capped off according
to maxusers, but it can be made unlimited by setting
the kern.ipc.nmbclusters boot-time tunable to zero.
Work should be done to write an appropriate sysctl
handler allowing dynamic tuning of kern.ipc.nmbclusters
at runtime.
Additional things worth noting/known issues (READ):
- One report of 'ips' (ServeRAID) driver acting really
slow in conjunction with mbuma. Need more data.
Latest report is that ips is equally sucking with
and without mbuma.
- Giant leak in NFS code sometimes occurs, can't
reproduce but currently analyzing; brueffer is
able to reproduce but THIS IS NOT an mbuma-specific
problem and currently occurs even WITHOUT mbuma.
- Issues in network locking: there is at least one
code path in the rip code where one or more locks
are acquired and we end up in m_prepend() with
M_WAITOK, which causes WITNESS to whine from within
UMA. Current temporary solution: force all UMA
allocations to be M_NOWAIT from within UMA for now
to avoid deadlocks unless WITNESS is defined and we
can determine with certainty that we're not holding
any locks when we're M_WAITOK.
- I've seen at least one weird socketbuffer empty-but-
mbuf-still-attached panic. I don't believe this
to be related to mbuma but please keep your eyes
open, turn on debugging, and capture crash dumps.
This change removes more code than it adds.
A paper is available detailing the change and considering
various performance issues, it was presented at BSDCan2004:

of this micro-optimization occurs when we call pmap_enter() to wire an
already mapped page. Because of the micro-optimization, we fail to
mark the PTE as wired. Later, on teardown of the address space,
pmap_remove_pages() destroys the PTE before vm_fault_unwire() has
unwired the page. (pmap_remove_pages() is not supposed to destroy
wired PTEs. They are destroyed by a later call to pmap_remove().)
Thus, the page becomes lost.
Note: The page is not lost if the application called munlock(2), only
if it relies on teardown of the address space to unwire its pages.
For the historically inclined, this bug was introduced by a
megacommit, revision 1.182, roughly six years ago.

gmon and struct gmonhdr was originally just to represent the kernel
(profiling) clock frequency and it remains poorly suited to representing
the frequencies of fast counters like the TSC. It broke a year or two
ago. This quick fix keeps it working for another year or month or two
until TSC frequencies can exceed 2^32, by dividing the frequency by 2.
Dividing the frequency by 4 would work for a little longer but would
lose a little too much precision.
Fixed profiling of trap, syscall and interrupt handlers and some
ordinary functions, essentially by backing out half of rev.1.106 of
i386/exception.s. The handlers must be between certain labels for
the purposes of profiling, and this was broken by scattering them in
separately compiled .s files, especially for ordinary functions that
ended up between the labels. Merge the files by #including them as
before, except with different pathnames and better comments and
organization. Changes to the scattered files are minimal -- just
move the labels to the file that does the #includes.
This also partly fixes profiling of IPIs -- all IPI handlers are now
correctly classified as interrupt handlers, but many are still missing
mcount calls.
vm86bios.s is included as before, but it is now between the labels for
interrupt handlers again, which seems to be wrong since half of it is
for a non-interrupt handler.
polarity rather than assuming that level triggered IRQs use active low and
edge triggered IRQs use active high. Both the MultiProcessor 1.4
and ACPI 2.0 Specifications state in their examples that level triggered
EISA IRQs are active low, but in practice they seem to be active high.

high resolution kernel profiling (options GUPROF. "U" in GUPROF stands
for microseconds resolution, but the resolution is now smaller than 1
nanosecond on multi-GHz machines and the accuracy is heading towards
1 nanosecond too). Arches that support GUPROF must now provide certain
macros for the calibration. GUPROF is now only supported for i386's,
so the absence of the new macros for other arches doesn't break anything
that wasn't already broken. amd64's have uncommitted support for
GUPROF, and sparc64's have support that seems to be complete except
here (there was an #error for non-i386 cases; now there are undefined
macros).
Changed the asms a little:
- declare them as __volatile. They must not be moved, and exporting a
label across asms is technically incorrect, so try harder to stop gcc
moving them.
- don't put the non-clobbered register "bx" in the clobber list. The
clobber lists are still more conservative than necessary.
- drop the non-support for gcc-1. It just gave a better error message,
and this is not useful since compiling with gcc-1 would cause thousands
of worse error messages.
- drop the support for aout.
to <sys/gmon.h>. Cleaned them up a little by not attempting to ifdef
for incomplete and out of date support for GUPROF in userland, as in
the sparc64 version.
elf_reloc() backends for two reasons. First, to support the possibility
of there being two elf linkers in the kernel (eg: amd64), and second, to

are used.
- Reduce duplication of a couple of macros removing the duplicates from
ich.h.
- Remove unused macros from icu.h as well as locore protection as this
header is no longer included in assembly sources.
- Require the APIC enumerators to explicitly enable mixed mode by calling
ioapic_enable_mixed_mode(). Calling this function tells the apic driver
that the PC-AT 8259A PICs are present and routable through the first I/O
APIC via an ExtINT pin. The mptable enumerator always calls this
function for now. The MADT enumerator only enables mixed mode if the
PC-AT compatability flag is set in the MADT header.
- Allow mixed mode to be enabled or disabled via a 'hw.apic.mixed_mode'
tunable. By default this tunable is set to 1 (true). The kernel option
NO_MIXED_MODE changes the default to 0 to preserve existing behavior, but
adding 'hw.apic.mixed_mode=0' to loader.conf achieves the same effect.
- Only use mixed mode to route IRQ 0 if it is both enabled by the APIC
enumerator and activated by the loader tunable. Note that both
conditions must be true, so if the APIC enumerator does not enable mixed
mode, then you can't set the tunable to try to override the enumerator.

returned.
- For ACPI version >= 2.0, check the extended checksum of the RSDP.
AcpiOsGetRootPointer() already checks the version 1.0 checksum.
- Remap the full MADT table at the end of madt_probe() so that we verify
its checksum before saying it is really there.
