spin-wait code to use the same spin mutex (smp_tlb_mtx) as the TLB ipi
and spin-wait code snippets so that you can't get into the situation of
one CPU doing a TLB shootdown to another CPU that is doing a lazy pmap
shootdown each of which are waiting on each other. With this change, only
one of the CPUs would do an IPI and spin-wait at a time.
the immediate awakening of proc0 (scheduler kproc, controls swapping

so this will not result in processes not being swapped in, there will just
be more latency in between a thread being made runnable and the scheduler
waking up to swap the affected process back in.

- In ntoskrnl_var.h, I had defined compat macros for
ntoskrnl_acquire_spinlock() and ntoskrnl_release_spinlock() but
never used them. This is fortunate since they were stale. Fix them
to work properly. (In Windows/x86 KeAcquireSpinLock() is a macro that
calls KefAcquireSpinLock(), which lives in HAL.dll. To imitate this,
ntoskrnl_acquire_spinlock() is just a macro that calls hal_lock(),
which lives in subr_hal.o.)
- Add macros for ntoskrnl_raise_irql() and ntoskrnl_lower_irql() that
call hal_raise_irql() and hal_lower_irql().
- Use these macros in kern_ndis.c, subr_ndis.c and subr_ntoskrnl.c.
- Along the way, I realised subr_ndis.c:ndis_lock() was not calling
hal_lock() correctly (it was using the FASTCALL2() wrapper when
in reality this routine is FASTCALL1()). Using the
ntoskrnl_acquire_spinlock() fixes this. Not sure if this actually
caused any bugs since hal_lock() would have just ignored what
was in %edx, but it was still bogus.
This hides many of the uses of the FASTCALLx() macros which makes the
code a little cleaner. Should not have any effect on generated object
code, other than the one fix in ndis_lock().

Also, relocate the inline pmap_unwire_pte_hold() so that it can be used

pmap_unwire_pte_hold() next to a comment that more accurately describes
it than _pmap_unwire_pte_hold().

by a transaction performing a driver handled message sequence (an
scb with the MK_MESSAGE flag set).
SCBs that perform host managed messaging must always be
at the head of their per-target selection queue so that
the firmware knows to manually assert ATN if the current
negotiation agreement is packetized. In the past we
guaranteed this by queuing these SCBs separarately in
the execution queue. This exposes the system to potential
command reordering in two cases:
1) Another SCB for the same ITL nexus is queued that does
not have the MK_MESSAGE flag set. This SCB will be
queued to the per-target list which can be serviced
before the MK_MESSAGE scb that preceeded it.
2) If the target cannot accept all of the commands in the
per-target selection queue in one selection, the remainder
is queued to the tail of the selection queues so as to
effect round-robin scheduling. This could allow the
MK_MESSAGE scb to be sent to the target before the
requeued commands.
This commit changes the firmware policy to defer queuing
MK_MESSAGE SCBs into the selection queues until this can
be done without affecting order. This means that the
target's selection queue is either empty, or the last
SCB on the execution queue is also a MK_MESSAGE SCB.
During any wait, the firmware halts the download of new
SCBs so only a single "holding location" is required.
Luckily, MK_MESSAGE SCBs are rare and typically occur only
during CAM's bus probe where only one command is outstanding
at a time. However, during some recovery scenarios, the
reordering *could* occur.
aic79xx.c:
Update ahd_search_qinfifo() and helper routines to
search for pending MK_MESSAGE scbs and properly
restitch the execution queue if either the MK_MESSAGE
SCB is being aborted, or the MK_MESSAGE SCB can be
queued due to the execution queue draining due to
aborts.
Enable LQOBUSFREE status to assert an interrupt.
This should be redundant since a BUSFREE interrupt
should always occur along with an LQOBUSFREE event,
but on the Rev A, this doesn't seem to be guaranteed.
When a PPR request is rejected when a previously
existing packetized agreement is in place, assume
that the target has been reset without our knowledge
and revert to async/narrow transfers. This corrects
two issues: the stale ENATNO setting that was used
to send the PPR is cleared so the firmware is not
confused by a future packetized selection with
ATN asserted but no MK_MESSAGE flag in the SCB and
it speeds up recovery by aborting any pending
packetized transactions that by definition are now
dead.
When re-queueing SCBs after a failed negotiation
attempt, ensure command ordering by freezing the
device queue first.
Traverse the list of pending SCBs rather than the
whole SCB array on the controller when pushing
MK_MESSAGE flag changes out to the controller.
The original code was optimized for the aic7xxx
controllers where there are fewer controller slots
then pending SCBs and the firmware picks SCB
slots. For the U320 controller, the hope is
that we have fewer pending SCBs then the 512
slots on the controller.
Enhance some diagnostics.
Factor out some common code.
aic79xx.h:
Add prototype for new ahd_done_with_status() that is
used to factor out some commone code.
aic79xx.reg:
Add definisions for the pending MK_MESSAGE SCB.
aic79xx.seq:
Defer MK_MESSAGE SCB queing to the execution queue
so as to preserve command ordering. Re-arrange some
of the selection processing code so the above change
had no performance impact on the common code path.
Close a few critical section holes.
When entering a non-packetized phase, manually enable
busfree interrupts, since the controller hardware
does not do this automatically.
aic79xx_inline.h:
Enhance logging for queued SCBs.
aic79xx_osm.c:
Add new a new DDB ahd command, ahd_dump, which
invokes the ahd_dump_card_state() routine on the
unit specified with the ahd_sunit DDB command.

Turn on the BUSFREEREV bug for the Rev B. controller.
This is required to close the busfree during non-packetized
phase hole.

we'll actually create an EFI partition with a FAT file system instead
of an UFS file system. It also allows us to give a sensible default
mount point for EFI partitions so that people don't have to guess.
This also means that we can now remove new_efi_part(), which did the
same thing as new_part(), except it created a FAT file system. The
function wasn't called when the EFI partition was created from scratch
though, which was the problem. By passing the partition type to the
various functions, we can deal with EFI without having to duplicate
code.
