region protected by the simplelock 'cpl_lock'.
Notes:
- this code is currently controlled on a section by section basis with
defines in machine/param.h. All sections are currently enabled.
- this code is not as clean as I would like, but that can wait till later.
- the "giant lock" still surrounds most instances of this "cpl region".
I still have to do the code that arbitrates setting cpl between the
top and bottom halves of the kernel.
- the possibility of deadlock exists, I am committing the code at this
point so as to exercise it and detect any such cases B4 the "giant lock"
is removed.
Made NEW_STRATEGY default.
Removed misc. old cruft.
Centralized simple locks into mp_machdep.c
Centralized simple lock macros into param.h
More cleanup in the direction of making splxx()/cpl MP-safe.

Macros to convert the Lite2 lock manager primitives to the names used
in the kernel proper. This allows us to hide them from the lock
manager till they can be turned on.

changes, so don't expect to be able to run the kernel as-is (very well)
without the appropriate Lite/2 userland changes.
The system boots and can mount UFS filesystems.
Untested: ext2fs, msdosfs, NFS
Known problems: Incorrect Berkeley ID strings in some files.
Mount_std mounts will not work until the getfsent
library routine is changed.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
[long long] results when I last worked on them, but they are normally
used together with to daddr_t's and off_t's which are signed, so the
unsigned results did little except cause warnings.
Macroize locore.s' page table setup even more, now it's almost readable.
Rename PG_U to PG_A (so that I can...)
Rename PG_u to PG_U. "PG_u" was just too ugly...
Remove some unused vars in pmap.c
Remove PG_KR and PG_KW
Remove SSIZE
Remove SINCR
Remove BTOPKERNBASE
This concludes my spring cleaning, modulus any bug fixes for messes I
have made on the way.
(Funny to be back here in pmap.c, that's where my first significant
contribution to 386BSD was... :-)
in machdep.c (it should use the global nmbclusters). Moved the calculation
of nmbclusters into conf/param.c (same place where nmbclusters has always
been assigned), and made the calculation include an extra amount based
on "maxusers". NMBCLUSTERS can still be overrided in the kernel config
file as always, but this change will make that generally unnecessary. This
fixes the "bug" reports from people who have misconfigured kernels seeing
the network hang when the mbuf cluster pool runs out.

page flipping anytime soon and 4k just wastes memory. Performance via the
looback interface will decrease slightly by this change. Idealy, we need
buffers that can have variable sizes, but this requires a rewrite of far
too much code at the moment.
Eliminates vm_fault overhead on process startup and
mmap referenced data for in-memory pages.
(process startup time using in-memory segments *much* faster)
2) Even more efficient pmap code. Code partially cleaned up.
More comments yet to follow.
(generally more efficient pte management)
3) Pageout clustering ( in addition to the FreeBSD V1.1 pagein
clustering.)
(much faster paging performance on non-write behind disk
subsystems, slightly faster performance on other systems.)
4) Slightly changed vm_pageout code for more efficiency and
better statistics. Also, resist swapout a little more.
(less likely to pageout a recently used page)
5) Slight improvement to the page table page trap efficiency.
(generally faster system VM fault performance)
6) Defer creation of unnamed anonymous regions pager until needed.
(speeds up shared memory bss creation)
7) Remove possible deadlock from swap_pager initialization.
8) Enhanced procfs to provide "vminfo" about vm objects and user
pmaps.
9) Increased MCLSHIFT/MCLBYTES from 2K to 4K to improve net &
socket performance and to prepare for things to come.

following is a summary:
1) increased object cache back up to a more reasonable value.
2) removed old & bogus cruft from machdep.c (clearseg, copyseg,
physcopyseg, etc).
3) inlined many functions in pmap.c
4) changed "load_cr3(rcr3())" into tlbflush() and made tlbflush inline
assembly.
5) changed the way that modified pages are tracked - now vm_page struct
is kept updated directly - no more scanning page tables.
6) removed lots of unnecessary spl's
7) removed old unused functions from pmap.c
8) removed all use of page_size, page_shift, page_mask variables - replaced
with PAGE_ constants.
9) moved trunc/round_page, atop, ptoa, out of vm_param.h and into i386/
include/param.h, and optimized them.
10) numerous changes to sys/vm/ swap_pager, vnode_pager, pageout, fault
code to improve performance. LRU algorithm modified to be more
effective, read ahead/behind values tuned for better performance,
etc, etc...
a binary link-kit. Make all non-optional options (pagers, procfs) standard,
and update LINT to reflect new symtab requirements.
NB: -Wtraditional will henceforth be forgotten. This editing pass was
primarily intended to detect any constructions where the old code might
have been relying on traditional C semantics or syntax. These were all
fixed, and the result of fixing some of them means that -Wall is now a
realistic possibility within a few weeks.
when the machine panics.
i386/i386/locore.s:
1) got rid of most .set directives that were being used like
#define's, and replaced them with appropriate #define's in
the appropriate header files (accessed via genassym).
2) added comments to header inclusions and global definitions,
and global variables
3) replaced some hardcoded constants with cpp defines (such as
PDESIZE and others)
4) aligned all comments to the same column to make them easier to
read
5) moved macro definitions for ENTRY, ALIGN, NOP, etc. to
/sys/i386/include/asmacros.h
6) added #ifdef BDE_DEBUGGER around all of Bruce's debugger code
7) added new global '_KERNend' to store last location+1 of kernel
8) cleaned up zeroing of bss so that only bss is zeroed
9) fix zeroing of page tables so that it really does zero them all
- not just if they follow the bss.
10) rewrote page table initialization code so that 1) works correctly
and 2) write protects the kernel text by default
11) properly initialize the kernel page directory, upages, p0stack PT,
and page tables. The previous scheme was more than a bit
screwy.
12) change allocation of virtual area of IO hole so that it is
fixed at KERNBASE + 0xa0000. The previous scheme put it
right after the kernel page tables and then later expected
it to be at KERNBASE +0xa0000
13) change multiple bogus settings of user read/write of various
areas of kernel VM - including the IO hole; we should never
be accessing the IO hole in user mode through the kernel
page tables
14) split kernel support routines such as bcopy, bzero, copyin,
copyout, etc. into a seperate file 'support.s'
15) split swtch and related routines into a seperate 'swtch.s'
16) split routines related to traps, syscalls, and interrupts
into a seperate file 'exception.s'
17) remove some unused global variables from locore that got
inserted by Garrett when he pulled them out of some .h
files.
i386/isa/icu.s:
1) clean up global variable declarations
2) move in declaration of astpending and netisr
i386/i386/pmap.c:
1) fix calculation of virtual_avail. It previously was calculated
to be right in the middle of the kernel page tables - not
a good place to start allocating kernel VM.
2) properly allocate kernel page dir/tables etc out of kernel map
- previously only took out 2 pages.
i386/i386/machdep.c:
1) modify boot() to print a warning that the system will reboot in
PANIC_REBOOT_WAIT_TIME amount of seconds, and let the user
abort with a key on the console. The machine will wait for
ever if a key is typed before the reboot. The default is
15 seconds, but can be set to 0 to mean don't wait at all,
-1 to mean wait forever, or any positive value to wait for
that many seconds.
2) print "Rebooting..." just before doing it.
kern/subr_prf.c:
1) remove PANICWAIT as it is deprecated by the change to machdep.c
i386/i386/trap.c:
1) add table of trap type strings and use it to print a real trap/
panic message rather than just a number. Lot's of work to
be done here, but this is the first step. Symbolic traceback
is in the TODO.
i386/i386/Makefile.i386:
1) add support in to build support.s, exception.s and swtch.s
...and various changes to various header files to make all of the
above happen.
Mark the fact that PGSHIFT and PDRSHIFT are really the same as
PG_SHIFT and PD_SHIFT, these should be collapsed some day soon.
Document that KERNBASE should really be KPTDPTDI << PDRSHIFT, for
now leave it as the constant 0xFE000000 until I make a seperate
common header file for this stuff (vmaddresses.h?)
Remove NKMEMCLUSTERS define, it was only being used to define
VM_KMEM_SIZE, so why have all the indirection. Besides who wants
to work in CLBYTE sizes chuncks.
pmap.h:
Fix $Id$ and some other minor format clean ups.
Remove the XXX comment about NKPDE, since it now has the correct value
of 7.
Remove unused LASTPTDI and move the APTD into the very end of memory to
free up 4MB of kernel virtual address space.
Remove unused RSVDPTDI and free up 12MB of kernel virtual address space.
vmparam.h
Fix $Id$.
Increase SHMMAXPGS to 512 (2MB) now that there is room for it to be
bigger. The XXX comment stays until the kernel moves down in memory
to free up enough space to use the proper default of 4MB.
VM_KMEM_SIZE is now a direct constant stating the size of the kernel
malloc region. Increased the value from 3MB to 16MB.
lines to match NetBSD. Added $Id$.
Added MID_MACHINE from NetBSD.
Removed definition of DELAY() for non-kernel soures.
Fixed some small english errors that had been corrected in NetBSD.
File is now identical to NetBSD's, but will be changing soon for some
of my clean up work.
