in as-yet uncommitted code for 32 bit binary compatability on 64 bit
kernels, some of the 32 bit registers come from the pcb. Moving the
initialization here means fill_regs32() etc are laid out the same.
Have pmcstat(8) and pmccontrol(8) use these APIs.
Return PMC class-related constants (PMC widths and capabilities)
with the OP GETCPUINFO call leaving OP PMCINFO to return only the
dynamic information associated with a PMC (i.e., whether enabled,
owner pid, reload count etc.).
Allow pmc_read() (i.e., OPS PMCRW) on active self-attached PMCs to
get upto-date values from hardware since we can guarantee that the
hardware is running the correct PMC at the time of the call.
Bug fixes:
- (x86 class processors) Fix a bug that prevented an RDPMC
instruction from being recognized as permitted till after the
attached process had context switched out and back in again after
a pmc_start() call.
Tighten the rules for using RDPMC class instructions: a GETMSR
OP is now allowed only after an OP ATTACH has been done by the
PMC's owner to itself. OP GETMSR is not allowed for PMCs that
track descendants, for PMCs attached to processes other than
their owner processes.
- (P4/HTT processors only) Fix a bug that caused the MI and MD
layers to get out of sync. Add a new MD operation 'get_config()'
as part of this fix.
- Allow multiple system-mode PMCs at the same row-index but on
different CPUs to be allocated.
- Reject allocation of an administratively disabled PMC.
Misc. code cleanups and refactoring. Improve a few comments.
a regular IPI vector, but this vector is blocked when interrupts are disabled.
With "options KDB_STOP_NMI" and debug.kdb.stop_cpus_with_nmi set, KDB will
send an NMI to each CPU instead. The code also has a context-stuffing
feature which helps ddb extract the state of processes running on the
stopped CPUs.
KDB_STOP_NMI is only useful with SMP and complains if SMP is not defined.
This feature only applies to i386 and amd64 at the moment, but could be
used on other architectures with the appropriate MD bits.

Only allow a process to use the x86 RDPMC instruction if it has
allocated and attached a PMC to itself.
Inform the MD layer of the "pseudo context switch out" that needs
to be done when the last thread of a process is exiting.
in other codes. Add cpu_set_user_tls, use it to tweak user register
and setup user TLS. I ever wanted to merge it into cpu_set_kse_upcall,
but since cpu_set_kse_upcall is also used by M:N threads which may
not need this feature, so I wrote a separated cpu_set_user_tls.

nasty templated system like before.
- Development-class R300 support in radeon driver (requires userland pieces, of
course).

Specifically, if the BIOS has programmed an IRQ for a device that doesn't
match the list of valid IRQs for the link, use it anyway as some BIOSes
don't correctly list the valid IRQs in the $PIR. Also, allow the user
to specify an IRQ that $PIR claims is invalid as an override, but emit a
warning in that case.
when using an APIC. This simplifies the APIC code somewhat and also allows
us to be pedantically more compliant with ACPI which mandates no use of
mixed mode.
of the kernel address space already. Intel recommend this anyway, because
using a non-4GB limit adds an additional clock cycle to address generation.
We were able to install 4GB segments into the LDT, so any limits we imposed
on %cs and %ds were academic anyway. More importantly, this allows us to
make a page in the kernel readable to user applications, for holding things
like the signal trampoline and other fun things.
Move the user %cs/%ds segments from the LDT to the GDT. There was no good
reason for them to be there anyway. The old LDT entries are still there
but we can now relax the restriction that prevented users from emptying
the default LDT entries.
Putting user and kernel %cs and %ds together allows us to access the fast
sysenter/sysexit/syscall/sysret instructions. syscall/sysret in particular
require that the user/kernel segments be laid out this way. Reserve a slot
specifically for NDIS while here.
Create two user controllable slots in the GDT that are context switched
with the (kernel) thread. This allows user applications to set two
user privilige selectors to arbitary values. Create
i386_set_fsbase(void *base) and friends. (get/set, fs/gs). For i386,
%gs is used by tls and the thread libraries and this means that user
processes no longer have to have the cost of having a custom LDT, and
we will no longer to do a ldt switch when activating a kthread/ithread in
the usual case any more.
In other words, we can now set the base address for %fs and %gs to arbitary
addresses without the pain of messing with ldt segments.
of the __pcb_spare longs. Except that fields were changed and one of the
spare values was used and the __pcb_spare field was reduced from two to one
long. Now VM86 bios calls can trash the first 4 bytes of the next page
following the kernel stack/pcb. This Is Bad(TM). This bug has been
present in 5.2-release and onwards, and is still in RELENG_5.
Instead of tempting fate and trying to use "spare" fields, explicitly
reserve them.
critical_enter() and critical_exit() are now solely a mechanism for
deferring kernel preemptions. They no longer have any affect on
interrupts. This means that standalone critical sections are now very
cheap as they are simply unlocked integer increments and decrements for the
common case.
Spin mutexes now use a separate KPI implemented in MD code: spinlock_enter()
and spinlock_exit(). This KPI is responsible for providing whatever MD
guarantees are needed to ensure that a thread holding a spin lock won't
be preempted by any other code that will try to lock the same lock. For
now all archs continue to block interrupts in a "spinlock section" as they
did formerly in all critical sections. Note that I've also taken this
opportunity to push a few things into MD code rather than MI. For example,
critical_fork_exit() no longer exists. Instead, MD code ensures that new
threads have the correct state when they are created. Also, we no longer
try to fixup the idlethreads for APs in MI code. Instead, each arch sets
the initial curthread and adjusts the state of the idle thread it borrows
in order to perform the initial context switch.
This change is largely a big NOP, but the cleaner separation it provides
will allow for more efficient alternative locking schemes in other parts
of the kernel (bare critical sections rather than per-CPU spin mutexes
for per-CPU data for example).
