pmap_activate since it's not used anymore. Changed cpu_fork so that
it uses one line of inline assembly rather than calling mvesp() to
get the current stack pointer. Removed mvesp() since it is no longer
being used.

programs shouldn't get in the way.
This cleans up some really ugly grots that I hated too. :-)

clock interrupts.
Keep a 1-in-16 smoothed average of the length of each tick. If the
CPU speed is correctly diagnosed, this should give experienced users
enough information to figure out a more suitable value for `tick'.
fd and wt drivers need bounce buffers, so this normally saves 32K-1K
of kernel memory.
Keep track of which DMA channels are busy. isa_dmadone() must now be
called when DMA has finished or been aborted.
Panic for unallocated and too-small (required) bounce buffers.
fd.c:
There will be new warnings about isa_dmadone() not being called after
DMA has been aborted.
sound/dmabuf.c:
isa_dmadone() needs more parameters than are available, so temporarily
use a new interface isa_dmadone_nobounce() to avoid having to worry
about panics for fake parameters. Untested.
looking at a high resolution clock for each of the following events:
function call, function return, interrupt entry, interrupt exit,
and interesting branches. The differences between the times of
these events are added at appropriate places in a ordinary histogram
(as if very fast statistical profiling sampled the pc at those
places) so that ordinary gprof can be used to analyze the times.
gmon.h:
Histogram counters need to be 4 bytes for microsecond resolutions.
They will need to be larger for the 586 clock.
The comments were vax-centric and wrong even on vaxes. Does anyone
disagree?
gprof4.c:
The standard gprof should support counters of all integral sizes
and the size of the counter should be in the gmon header. This
hack will do until then. (Use gprof4 -u to examine the results
of non-statistical profiling.)
config/*:
Non-statistical profiling is configured with `config -pp'.
`config -p' still gives ordinary profiling.
kgmon/*:
Non-statistical profiling is enabled with `kgmon -B'. `kgmon -b'
still enables ordinary profiling (and distables non-statistical
profiling) if non-statistical profiling is configured.
bzero.
Deprecated blkclr (removed it).
Removed some old cruft from cpufunc.h.

overflows.
It sure would be nice if there was an unmapped page between the PCB and
the stack (and that the size of the stack was configurable!). With the
way things are now, the PCB will get clobbered before the double fault
handler gets control, making somewhat of a mess of things. Despite this,
it is still fairly easy to poke around in the overflowed stack to figure
out the cause.
most devsw referenced functions are now static, as they are
in the same file as their devsw structure. I've also added DEVFS
support for nearly every device in the system, however
many of the devices have 'incorrect' names under DEVFS
because I couldn't quickly work out the correct naming conventions.
(but devfs won't be coming on line for a month or so anyhow so that doesn't
matter)
If you "OWN" a device which would normally have an entry in /dev
then search for the devfs_add_devsw() entries and munge to make them right..
check out similar devices to see what I might have done in them in you
can't see what's going on..
for a laugh compare conf.c conf.h defore and after... :)
I have not doen DEVFS entries for any DISKSLICE devices yet as that will be
a much more complicated job.. (pass 5 :)
pass 4 will be to make the devsw tables of type (cdevsw * )
rather than (cdevsw)
seems to work here..
complaints to the usual places.. :)
Protected them with `#ifdef KERNEL' so that <sys/queue.h> is valid C++.
Added the necessary #includes of <sys/queue.h>.
These functions are bogus and should be replaced by the queue macros.
- Don't print out meaningless iCOMP numbers, those are for droids.
- Use a shorter wait to determine clock rate to avoid deficiencies
in DELAY().
- Use a fixed-point representation with 8 bits of fraction to store
the rate and rationalize the variable name. It would be
possible to use even more fraction if it turns out to be
worthwhile (I rather doubt it).
The question of source code arrangement remains unaddressed.
o Add signed/unsigned functionality to the matrox meteor device driver.
o Apply a few fixes to the sound driver.
o Add a ``SPIGOT_UNSECURE'' compile time definition so, if one defines
SPIGOT_UNSECURE in their conf file, then they can use the spigot w/o
root. There is a warning that this allows users access to the IO
page which is probably not secure.

Convert the remaining sysctl stuff to the new way of doing things.
the devconf stuff is the reason for the large number of files.
Cleaned up some compiler warnings while I were there.
#include <i386/isa/isa_device.h>
#include <i386/eisa/eisaconf.h>
#include <pci/pcireg.h>
#include <pci/pcivar.h>
#include <scsi/scsi_all.h>
#include <scsi/scsiconf.h>
they are not needed, and slows down compilation.
Most of this is cleaning up, but there are some functional changes,
doc/comment improvements, error checking, gcc -Wall cleanups. Input buffer
flushing is enabled now, although I'm still not quite certain it's right.
misplaced extern declarations (mostly prototypes of interrupt handlers)
that this exposed. The prototypes should be moved back to the driver
sources when the functions are staticalized.
Added idempotency guards to <machine/conf.h>. "ioconf.h" can't be
included when building LKMs so define a wart in bsd.kmod.mk to help
guard against including it.
to <machine/conf.h>. conf.h was mechanically generated by
`grep ^d_ conf.c >conf.h'. This accounts for part of its ugliness. The
prototypes should be moved back to the driver sources when the functions
are staticalized.
line discipline interrupt handlers more or less expect to be called at
spltty() == splimp(), although they have internal splimp()s that are
bogus if this expectation is satisfied. They are called at splsoftty()
from many tty drivers, so they were not protected from being reentered
from their own netisrs. They certainly don't expect that but are
apparently remarkably robust if it occurs. The problem in PR 798 seems
to be caused by pppstart() being reentered and finishing off the output
in progress by following the (stale) sc->sc_outm pointer. Then the
original pppstart() finds garbage in m2 after MFREE(m, m2). slstart()
doesn't have internal state like sc_outm so reentry of it probably only
causes out of order and dropped packets.
This code will only be included in your kernel if you have
'options DEVRANDOM', but that will fall away in a couple of days.

free-run and doing a subtract in microtime() rather than resetting the
counter to zero at every clock tick. In combination with the changes to
kern_clock.c, this should eliminate all the immediately obvious sources
of systematic jitter in timekeeping on Pentium machines.
changes to allow devices that don't probe (e.g. /dev/mem)
to create devfs entries
this required giving 'configure' its own SYSINIT entry
so we could duck in just before it with a DEVFS init
and some device inits..
my devfs now looks like:
./misc
./misc/speaker
./misc/mem
./misc/kmem
./misc/null
./misc/zero
./misc/io
./misc/console
./misc/pcaudio
./misc/pcaudioctl
./disks
./disks/rfloppy
./disks/rfloppy/fd0.1440
./disks/rfloppy/fd1.1200
./disks/floppy
./disks/floppy/fd0.1440
./disks/floppy/fd1.1200
also some sligt cleanups.. DEVFS needs a lot of work
but I'm getting back to it..
