because it was mostly irrelevant - except for the silly BIOS_PADDRTOVADDR
etc macros. Along the way of working around this, I missed a few things.
* Make syscons properly inherit the bios capslock/shiftlock/etc state like
i386 does. Note that we cannot inherit the bios key repeat rate because
that requires a bios call (which is impossible for us).
* Give syscons the ability to beep on amd64. Oops.
While here, make bios.c compile and add it to files.amd64.

o Remove PSM_SYNCERR_THRESHOLD1. This value specified how many sync
errors were required before the mouse is re-initialised.
Re-initialisation is now done after (packetsize * 2) sync errors as
things aren't likely to improve after that.
o Reset lastinputerror when re-initialisation occurs. We don't want
to continue to drop data after re-initialisation.
o Count the number of failed packets independently of the syncerrors
statistic. syncerrors is useful for recovering sync within a single
packet. pkterrors allows us to detect when the mouse changes its
packet mode due to some external event (e.g. KVM switch).
o Reinitialize the mouse if we see more than psmpkterrthresh errors
during the validation period. The validation period begins as soon
as a sync error is detected and continues until psmerrsecs/msecs
time has elapsed. The defaults for these two values force a reset
if we see two packet errors in a 2 second period. This allows rapid
detection of packet framing errors caused by the mouse changing packet
modes.
o Export psmpkterrthresh as a sysctl
o Export psmloglevel as a sysctl.
o Enable more debugging code to be enabled at runtime via psmloglevel.
o Simplify verbose conditioned loging by using a VLOG macro.
o Add several comments describing the sync recovery algorithm of
this driver.

data packet is received from the mouse. In the case of many KVM's,
this avoids a bug in their mouse emulation that sends back incorrect
sync when you explicitly request a data packet from the mouse. Without
this change, you must force the driver into stock PS/2 mode or be flooded
with a never ending stream of "out of sync" messages on these KVMs.

a more reasonable speed of motion
This should fix the 'aiming' problems people have reported. It also
mitigates (but doesn't completely solve) the 'stalling' problems at
very low speeds.

a problem that could also be fixed differently without reverting previous
attempts to fix DELAY while the debugger is active (rev 1.204). The bug
was that the i8254 implements a countdown timer, while for (k)db_active
a countup timer was implemented. This resulted in premature termination
and consequently the breakage of DELAY. The fix (relative to rev 1.211)
is to implement a countdown timer for the kdb_active case. As such the
ability to step clock initialization is preserved and DELAY does what is
expected of it.

Help from: jhb
when using a KVM.
There is no actual solution possible, but this gets us pretty close.
Typically when switching back to a FreeBSD box and moving the mouse
wild data is produced, because the protocol's validation/checksum
system is extremely weak it is impossible to determine that we're
out of sync before dropping several bogus packets to user land.
The actual solution that appears to offer the best clamping of
jitter is to buffer the mouse packets if we've not seen mouse
activity for more than .5 seconds. Then waiting to flush that data
for 1/20th of a second. If within that 20th of a second we get any
packets that do fail the weak test we drop the entire queue and
back off accepting data from the mouse for 2 seconds and then repeat
the whole deal.
You can still get _some_ jitter, notably if you switch to the FreeBSD
box, then move the mouse just enough to generate one or two packets.
Those packets may be bogus, but may still pass the validity check.
One way to finally kill the problem once and for all is to check
the initial packets for "wild" values. Typically one sees packets
in the +/-60 range during normal operation, however when bogus data
is generated it's typically near the outer range of +/-120 or more,
those packets would be a good candidate for dropping or clamping.
I've been running with this for several weeks now and it has
significantly helped me stay sane even with a piece of junk Belkin
KVM causing wild jitter each and every time I switch.
Lastly I'd like to note that my experience with Windows shows me that
somehow the Microsoft PS/2 driver typically avoids this problem, but
that may only be possible when running the mouse in a dumb-ed down PS/2
mode that Belkin recommends on their site.

- The apic interrupt entry points have been rewritten so that each entry
point can serve 32 different vectors. When the entry is executed, it
uses one of the 32-bit ISR registers to determine which vector in its
assigned range was triggered. Thus, the apic code can support 159
different interrupt vectors with only 5 entry points.
- We now always to disable the local APIC to work around an errata in
certain PPros and then re-enable it again if we decide to use the APICs
to route interrupts.
- We no longer map IO APICs or local APICs using special page table
entries. Instead, we just use pmap_mapdev(). We also no longer
export the virtual address of the local APIC as a global symbol to
the rest of the system, but only in local_apic.c. To aid this, the
APIC ID of each CPU is exported as a per-CPU variable.
- Interrupt sources are provided for each intpin on each IO APIC.
Currently, each source is given a unique interrupt vector meaning that
PCI interrupts are not shared on most machines with an I/O APIC.
That mapping for interrupt sources to interrupt vectors is up to the
APIC enumerator driver however.
- We no longer probe to see if we need to use mixed mode to route IRQ 0,
instead we always use mixed mode to route IRQ 0 for now. This can be
disabled via the 'NO_MIXED_MODE' kernel option.
- The npx(4) driver now always probes to see if a built-in FPU is present
since this test can now be performed with the new APIC code. However,
an SMP kernel will panic if there is more than one CPU and a built-in
FPU is not found.
- PCI interrupts are now properly routed when using APICs to route
interrupts, so remove the hack to psuedo-route interrupts when the
intpin register was read.
- The apic.h header was moved to apicreg.h and a new apicvar.h header
that declares the APIs used by the new APIC code was added.
