swi_exit code in exception.S instead of having its own inline expansion
of the DO_AST and PULLFRAME macros. That means that now all references
to the PUSH/PULLFRAME and DO_AST macros are localized to exception.S,
so move the macros themselves into there and remove them from asmacros.h
and eliminate vectors.S. All low-level exception handling is now
consolidated into exception.S.
Along with moving the default FIQ handler, change it to disable FIQs
before returning. An FIQ should never happen, but if it does, it's got
to be disabled as part of ignoring it.
In general, we have hand-wavy support for FIQs that probably hasn't been
used for 10 years and probably doesn't work (almost certainly doesn't
work for SMP because it only updates the vector on the current cpu). This
change doesn't really make the overall situation any better or worse.
and the functionality it provided into arm/exception.S. Rename the main
irq handling routine from arm_handler_execute() to arm_irq_handler() to
make it more congruent with how other exception handlers are named, and
also update its signature to reflect what has long been reality: it is
passed just a trapframe pointer, no interrupt number argument.
private per-chip HAL.
This allows the ah_osdep.[ch] code to check whether the power state is
valid for doing chip programming.
It should be a no-op for normal driver work but it does require a
clean kernel/module rebuild, as the size of HAL structures have changed.
Now, this doesn't track whether the hardware is ACTUALLY awake,
as NETWORK_SLEEP wakes the chip up for a short period when traffic
is received. This doesn't actually set the power mode to AWAKE, so
we have to be careful about how we touch things.
But it's enough to start down the path of implementing station mode
chipset power savings, as a large part of the silliness is making
sure the chip is awake during periodic calibration / ANI and
random places where transmit may be occuring. I'd rather not a repeat
of debugging power save on ath9k, where races with calibration
and transmit path stuff took a couple years to shake out.

This fixes a pgrep test that assumed that PID 2 was named g_event. This
does not seem to be the case any longer (and I don't know if it ever was
in all possible setups).
Change this test to use the idle loop instead and determine its expected
PID using ps without assuming any specific ID.
First, change the driver to run the installed yacc instead of the one from
/usr/obj (which might not be there), just as we (intend to) do with all
other tests.
Second, regenerate the expected output files from scratch. Based on visual
inspection, the differences seem OK. But this highlights that the tests in
here are too fragile and, possibly, useless: we should be testing the
behavior of the generated program, not the literal output. Something to be
addressed later.
never actually ran on these chips (other than using SA1 support in an
emulator to do the early porting to FreeBSD long long ago). The clutter
and complexity of some of this code keeps getting in the way of other
maintenance, so it's time to go.
allows us to change the uart(4) driver to not hardcode specific line
settings for the serial console.
A terminal type of 3wire makes sure the console still works when no DCD
signal is present, which preserves behviour. When it is known that the
terminal server (or DCE in general) provides DCD, a terminal type/class
of std can be used. This has the effect of being logged out when one
disconnects from the console -- improving security overall.
Likewise, when uart(4) does not fixate the baudrate, one can change
the terminal type/class to set a specific baudrate. An operator can use
this to change the console speed mid-flight, without needing a reboot.
Of course it helps in this respect if and when the firmware can be
configured from the OS.
The above mentioned capabilities depend on uart(4) being changed, which
is to happen next.
the existing terminal types/classes that have the baudrate suffix,
but differ in that no baudrate is set/defined.
The purpose of these new types/classes is to allow them to be used
for the serial console. Currently the uart(4) driver fixates the
baudrate and the CLOCAL flag, which means that it doesn't matter
whether you give it std.<baud> or 3wire.<baud> as the terminal type
to getty and what exactly <baud> is set to. It's being overridden
by uart(4). The goal is to change uart(4) not to override these
settings.
to the actual handler routine. All the pointers are static-intialized to
the only handlers available, and yet various platform-specific inits still
set those pointers (to the values they're already initialized to). Begin
to drain the swamp by removing all the redundant external declarations and
runtime setting of the pointers that's scattered around various places.
The old code used static storage to preserve a couple registers while
setting up the trapframe for the main handler. Doing so was the last
leftover crumbs from the days when a low-level debugger was hooked into
the exception entry code.
Now the exception entry sequence is essentially the same as for the
other exceptions, which still involves needlessly indirecting through
a function pointer which points to the same code on every platform.
Removing that indirection will be handled as a separate cleanup.

Pointy hat to: me
drop out dated perf numbers (can't imagine people are still running
Pentium MMX 166's anymore)...
bump date...
drop max length of salt of 8 since _PASSWORD_LEN is now large, 128..
and state the max length of the salt depends upon the module,
sha-{256,512} have a max salt of 16..
recommend 8 characters of salt instead of just 2...

a leftover from the days when a low-level debugger had hooks in the
undefined exception vector and needed stack space to function. These days
it effectively isn't used because we switch immediately to the svc32 mode
stack on exception entry. For that, the single undef mode stack per core
that gets set up at init time works fine.
The stack wasn't necessary but it was harmful, because the space for it
was carved out of the normal per-thread svc32 stack, in effect cutting
that 8K stack in half. If svc32 mode used more than 4k of stack space it
wandered down into the undef mode stack, and then an undef exception would
overwrite a couple words on the stack while switching to svc32 mode,
corrupting the scv32 stack. Having another stack abut the bottom of the
svc32 stack also effectively mooted the guard page below the stack.
This work is based on analysis and patches submitted by Juergen Weiss.
The old code was full of complexity that would only matter if the
kernel itself used the VFP hardware. Now that's reduced to either killing
the userland process or panicking the kernel on an illegal VFP instruction.
This removes most of the complexity from the assembler code, reducing it
to just calling the save code if the outgoing thread used the VFP.
The routine that stores the VFP state now takes a flag that indicates
whether the hardware should be disabled after saving state. Right now it
always is, but this makes the code ready to be used by get/set_mcontext()
(doing so will be addressed in a future commit).
Remove the arm-specific pc_vfpcthread from struct pcpu and use the MI
field pc_fpcurthread instead.
