to the pcb as necessary. The user land window fault handlers
fill directly from the pcb on return.
Add system call entry points.

the process of exiting the kernel. The ast() function now loops as long
as the PS_ASTPENDING or PS_NEEDRESCHED flags are set. It returns with
preemption disabled so that any further AST's that arrive via an
interrupt will be delayed until the low-level MD code returns to user
mode.
- Use u_int's to store the tick counts for profiling purposes so that we
do not need sched_lock just to read p_sticks. This also closes a
problem where the call to addupc_task() could screw up the arithmetic
due to non-atomic reads of p_sticks.
- Axe need_proftick(), aston(), astoff(), astpending(), need_resched(),
clear_resched(), and resched_wanted() in favor of direct bit operations
on p_sflag.
- Fix up locking with sched_lock some. In addupc_intr(), use sched_lock
to ensure pr_addr and pr_ticks are updated atomically with setting
PS_OWEUPC. In ast() we clear pr_ticks atomically with clearing
PS_OWEUPC. We also do not grab the lock just to test a flag.
- Simplify the handling of Giant in ast() slightly.

Only set sticks (and acquire sched_lock) on entry from user mode.
Add handlers for all kinds of mmu misses, and for interrupts from
user mode.
Acquire Giant before calling into the vm system so this runs with
invariants.
Try to get the restrictions for page faults on user memory from
kernel mode right.
Only set pcb_onfault and return to the alternate return code if
this is actually a fault on user memory from kernel mode.
2. Use the upcoming "tick" interface.
3. Save a call frame as well as a trap frame on proc0's initial stack.
4. Setup a pointer to the per-cpu interrupt queue.
5. Install the per-cpu pointer in interrupt and alternate globals as well.
6. Flush out setregs so exec works.

2. Add spill and fill handlers for spills to the user stack on entry
to the kernel.
3. Add code to handle instruction mmu misses from user mode.
4. Add code to handle level interrupts from kernel mode and vectored
interrupt traps from either.
5. Save the pil in the trapframe on entry from kernel mode and restore
it on return.

are a really nasty interface that should have been killed long ago
when 'ptrace(PT_[SG]ETREGS' etc came along. The entity that they
operate on (struct user) will not be around much longer since it
is part-per-process and part-per-thread in a post-KSE world.
gdb does not actually use this except for the obscure 'info udot'
command which does a hexdump of as much of the child's 'struct user'
as it can get. It carries its own #defines so it doesn't break
compiles.

actually maps to (doh!). Comment out some code that crashes.

- mostly complete kernel pmap support, and tested but currently turned
off userland pmap support
- low level assembly language trap, context switching and support code
- fully implemented atomic.h and supporting cpufunc.h
- some support for kernel debugging with ddb
- various header tweaks and filling out of machine dependent structures
to a new architecture. This is the base of the sparc64 port, but contains
limited machine dependent code, and can be used a base for ports. Included
are:
- standard machine dependent headers, tweaked for a 64 bit, big endian
architecture, including empty versions of all the machine dependent
structures
- a machine independent atomic.h, which can be used until a port has
support for interrupts and the operations really need to be atomic
- stub versions of all the machine dependent functions, which panic
when called and print out the name of the function that needs to
be implemented. functions which are normally in assembly files are
not included, but this should reduce the number of different undefined
references on the first few compiles from hundreds to 5 or 6
Given minimal startup code and console support it should be trivial to
make this compile and run the first few sysinits on almost any architecture.
