we're using an atomic operation to clear the suspend flag
in fxp_start(). Since other architectures may need the
same thing, we want to do it all the time and not only
in the __alpha__ case. However, we don't want to use
atomic operations on 16-bit integers, because those may
not be available on any architecture. We're thus faking
a 32-bit atomic operation here. This patch also deals
with endianness here.
use it because we allocate a VHPT based on the size of the physical
memory and even if the allocated VHPT is 32KB, we don't use the in-
image section for it. Since the VHPT must be naturally aligned, we
save 48K on average (due to alignment).
Consequently, we start off with the VHPT disabled (it is assumed
the VHPT is disabled because the EFI loader runs without memory
address translation and thus has no need to setup the VHPT). It's
probably a good idea to explicitly disable the VHPT if we make the
use of the VHPT optional.
These are called through function pointers so that different implementations
can be provided for cheetah, where the block load instructions may or may
not be a win, and so they can be disabled with the machdep.use_vis tunable.
In terms of raw bandwidth the integer versions are faster, but not allocating
lines in the L2 cache for useless data gives a measurable improvement in user
time for the benchmarks I tested (mostly buildworld with -j8).
As far as I can tell the instructions used are implemented on everything
back to UltraSPARC I, so there should not be a problem with different cpu
types.
This avoids an immediate access bit fault when we serviced the dirty
bit fault in case the access bit is unset. This typically happens for
newly allocated memory that's being zeroed and thus very common.
which deals with both endianness and alignment issues.
- Collect low-hanging fruits for endianness safety.
- Use 0xffffffff instead of -1 where appropriate.
endian safe.
- Change some u_int to u_int8_t which make more sense here since
we're really defining bytes. That produces the same code due to
how bitfields work.
- Add the definition of the vlan_drop_en bit (not used yet).
- Add some useful comments.

RX part of this driver too. It's better since the code wasn't
dealing with bus_dmamap_load() returning EINPROGRESS, and this
can't happen with bus_dmamap_load_mbuf().

other allocations/initializations have been successful. I kinda
doubt it will fix the recent breakage that some people are seeing,
but this could have caused problems for sure.
to take care of the KAME IPv6 code which needs ovbcopy() because NetBSD's
bcopy() doesn't handle overlap like ours.
Remove all implementations of ovbcopy().
Previously, bzero was a function pointer on i386, to save a jmp to
bzero_vector. Get rid of this microoptimization as it only confuses
things, adds machine-dependent code to an MD header, and doesn't really
save all that much.
This commit does not add my pagezero() / pagecopy() code.
Move the remaining bits of <sys/diskslice.h> to <i386/include/bootinfo.h>
Move i386/pc98 specific bits from <sys/reboot.h> to
<i386/include/bootinfo.h> as well.
Adjust includes in sys/boot accordingly.
