John Baldwin ad86a65e32 Adjust the handling the various timer frequencies when using the lapic
timer.  Previously, the various divisors were fixed which meant that while
it gave somewhat reasonable stathz, etc. at hz=1000, it went off the rails
with any other hz value.  With these changes, we now pick a lapic timer hz
based on the value of hz.  If hz is >= 1500, then the lapic timer runs at
hz.  If 1500 hz >= 750, we run the lapic timer at hz * 2.  If hz < 750, we
run at hz * 4.  We compute a divider at runtime to make stathz run as close
to 128 as we can since stathz really wants to be run at something close to
that frequency.  Profiling just runs on every clock tick.  So some examples:

With hz = 100, the lapic timer now runs at 400 instead of 2000.  stathz
will be 133, and profhz = 400.  With hz = 1000 (default), the lapic timer
is still at 2000 (as it is now), stathz is at 133 (as it is now), and
profhz will be 2000 (previously 666).

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.
