alc@. The UMA zone based allocation is replaced by a scheme that creates a new free page list for the KSEG0 region, and a new function in sys/vm that allocates pages from a specific free page list. This also fixes a race condition introduced by the UMA based page table page allocation code. Dropping the page queue and pmap locks before the call to uma_zfree, and re-acquiring them afterwards will introduce a race condtion(noted by alc@). The changes are : - Revert the earlier changes in MIPS pmap.c that added UMA zone for page table pages. - Add a new freelist VM_FREELIST_HIGHMEM to MIPS vmparam.h for memory that is not directly mapped (in 32bit kernel). Normal page allocations will first try the HIGHMEM freelist and then the default(direct mapped) freelist. - Add a new function 'vm_page_t vm_page_alloc_freelist(int flind, int order, int req)' to vm/vm_page.c to allocate a page from a specified freelist. The MIPS page table pages will be allocated using this function from the freelist containing direct mapped pages. - Move the page initialization code from vm_phys_alloc_contig() to a new function vm_page_alloc_init(), and use this function to initialize pages in vm_page_alloc_freelist() too. - Split the function vm_phys_alloc_pages(int pool, int order) to create vm_phys_alloc_freelist_pages(int flind, int pool, int order), and use this function from both vm_page_alloc_freelist() and vm_phys_alloc_pages().

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
