freebsd kernel with SKQ

This will enable the elimination of a workaround in the USB driver that artifically allocates buffers twice as big as they need to be (which actually saves memory for very small buffers on the buggy platforms). When deciding how to allocate a dma buffer, armv4, armv6, mips, and x86/iommu all correctly check for the tag alignment <= maxsize as enabling simple uma/malloc based allocation. Powerpc, sparc64, x86/bounce, and arm64/bounce were all checking for alignment < maxsize; on those platforms when alignment was equal to the max size it would fall back to page-based allocators even for very small buffers. This change makes all platforms use the <= check. It should be noted that on all platforms other than arm[v6] and mips, this check is relying on undocumented behavior in malloc(9) that if you allocate a block of a given size it will be aligned to the next larger power-of-2 boundary. There is nothing in the malloc(9) man page that makes that explicit promise (but the busdma code has been relying on this behavior all along so I guess it works). Arm and mips code uses the allocator in kern/subr_busdma_buffalloc.c, which does explicitly implement this promise about size and alignment. Other platforms probably should switch to the aligned allocator. |

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. See build(7) and 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. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information. 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 kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds. NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used.
