freebsd kernel with SKQ

- The apic interrupt entry points have been rewritten so that each entry point can serve 32 different vectors. When the entry is executed, it uses one of the 32-bit ISR registers to determine which vector in its assigned range was triggered. Thus, the apic code can support 159 different interrupt vectors with only 5 entry points. - We now always to disable the local APIC to work around an errata in certain PPros and then re-enable it again if we decide to use the APICs to route interrupts. - We no longer map IO APICs or local APICs using special page table entries. Instead, we just use pmap_mapdev(). We also no longer export the virtual address of the local APIC as a global symbol to the rest of the system, but only in local_apic.c. To aid this, the APIC ID of each CPU is exported as a per-CPU variable. - Interrupt sources are provided for each intpin on each IO APIC. Currently, each source is given a unique interrupt vector meaning that PCI interrupts are not shared on most machines with an I/O APIC. That mapping for interrupt sources to interrupt vectors is up to the APIC enumerator driver however. - We no longer probe to see if we need to use mixed mode to route IRQ 0, instead we always use mixed mode to route IRQ 0 for now. This can be disabled via the 'NO_MIXED_MODE' kernel option. - The npx(4) driver now always probes to see if a built-in FPU is present since this test can now be performed with the new APIC code. However, an SMP kernel will panic if there is more than one CPU and a built-in FPU is not found. - PCI interrupts are now properly routed when using APICs to route interrupts, so remove the hack to psuedo-route interrupts when the intpin register was read. - The apic.h header was moved to apicreg.h and a new apicvar.h header that declares the APIs used by the new APIC code was added. |

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 ``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.
