I belive it got here by copy&paste and I see no signs in the source
code that BIO_DELETE was dealt with correctly and can only wonder
what kind of trouble this may have caused.
data structure called kse_upcall to manage UPCALL. All KSE binding
and loaning code are gone.
A thread owns an upcall can collect all completed syscall contexts in
its ksegrp, turn itself into UPCALL mode, and takes those contexts back
to userland. Any thread without upcall structure has to export their
contexts and exit at user boundary.
Any thread running in user mode owns an upcall structure, when it enters
kernel, if the kse mailbox's current thread pointer is not NULL, then
when the thread is blocked in kernel, a new UPCALL thread is created and
the upcall structure is transfered to the new UPCALL thread. if the kse
mailbox's current thread pointer is NULL, then when a thread is blocked
in kernel, no UPCALL thread will be created.
Each upcall always has an owner thread. Userland can remove an upcall by
calling kse_exit, when all upcalls in ksegrp are removed, the group is
atomatically shutdown. An upcall owner thread also exits when process is
in exiting state. when an owner thread exits, the upcall it owns is also
removed.
KSE is a pure scheduler entity. it represents a virtual cpu. when a thread
is running, it always has a KSE associated with it. scheduler is free to
assign a KSE to thread according thread priority, if thread priority is changed,
KSE can be moved from one thread to another.
When a ksegrp is created, there is always N KSEs created in the group. the
N is the number of physical cpu in the current system. This makes it is
possible that even an userland UTS is single CPU safe, threads in kernel still
can execute on different cpu in parallel. Userland calls kse_create to add more
upcall structures into ksegrp to increase concurrent in userland itself, kernel
is not restricted by number of upcalls userland provides.
The code hasn't been tested under SMP by author due to lack of hardware.

While here, reformat ia64_enable() in interrupt.c to improve
indentation and add a sysctl (machdep.apic) to dump the I/O APIC
entries currently programmed into all I/O APICs. The latter can
help analyze interrupt problems.

This needs to be made more dynamic. The likelyhood of vector 254

vectors to IPIs (see sal.c) and it's preobably better to have a
centralized "vector manager" that hands out vectors based on
some imput (like priority).

UHCI still hangs the BigSur (=HP i2000) machines, and makes

still won't have USB support. We really need to import the

The HCDP table is one (non-proprietary) way for the platform to
inform the OS about headless operation. This field would normally
hold the address as can be found by scanning the EFI system table,
which we also pass to the kernel. The apparent duplication allows
us to synthesize a HCDP table in the loader by whatever means we
can think of, including relocating the platform table into pre-
mapped address space. In short: it gives us more freedom.
