Split off cdevsw initialization in cninit() into a new function
cninit_finish() that isn't called until all hardware device drivers
have been attached. The bdevsw entry of the driver for the physical
console needs to be hooked after the physical driver has been
attached in case the attachment modified the entry.
Rearrange cninit() to avoid changing cn_tab until the driver for the
physical console has been initialized, so that the previous driver
(if any) can be used for debugging.
Start removing half-baked lint support. bdevsw functions usually have
unused args but /*ARGSUSED*/ was used for only about 5% of them.
cons.h:
Declare cn_init_finish().
autoconf.c:
Call cn_init_finish().
Start adding prototypes. Functions with bogus linkage (extern where
static is probably should be static) are explicitly declared as extern
so that the can be found easily (extern in a non-header is usually
wrong).
All:
Continue cleaning up init stuff: init functions shall be static;
INITs should be at the start of files...
2) Output K bytes instead of pages as this means something to more people.
3) Moved printf of avail memory to after vm_bounce_init() call so that
bounce buffers are included in the figure.
4) Killed initcpu(); it's an unused vestige from the VAX.

This is a composite of 3 patch sets submitted by terry.
they are:
New low-level init code that supports loadbal modules better
some cleanups in the namei code to help terry in 16-bit character support
some changes to the mount-root code to make it a little more
modular..
NOTE: mounting root off cdrom or NFS MIGHT be broken as I haven't been able
to test those cases..
certainly mounting root of disk still works just fine..
mfs should work but is untested. (tomorrows task)
The low level init stuff includes a total rewrite of init_main.c
to make it possible for new modules to have an init phase by simply
adding an entry to a TEXT_SET (or is it DATA_SET) list. thus a new module can
be added to the kernel without editing any other files other than the
'files' file.

proc or any VM system structure will have to be rebuilt!!!
Much needed overhaul of the VM system. Included in this first round of
changes:
1) Improved pager interfaces: init, alloc, dealloc, getpages, putpages,
haspage, and sync operations are supported. The haspage interface now
provides information about clusterability. All pager routines now take
struct vm_object's instead of "pagers".
2) Improved data structures. In the previous paradigm, there is constant
confusion caused by pagers being both a data structure ("allocate a
pager") and a collection of routines. The idea of a pager structure has
escentially been eliminated. Objects now have types, and this type is
used to index the appropriate pager. In most cases, items in the pager
structure were duplicated in the object data structure and thus were
unnecessary. In the few cases that remained, a un_pager structure union
was created in the object to contain these items.
3) Because of the cleanup of #1 & #2, a lot of unnecessary layering can now
be removed. For instance, vm_object_enter(), vm_object_lookup(),
vm_object_remove(), and the associated object hash list were some of the
things that were removed.
4) simple_lock's removed. Discussion with several people reveals that the
SMP locking primitives used in the VM system aren't likely the mechanism
that we'll be adopting. Even if it were, the locking that was in the code
was very inadequate and would have to be mostly re-done anyway. The
locking in a uni-processor kernel was a no-op but went a long way toward
making the code difficult to read and debug.
5) Places that attempted to kludge-up the fact that we don't have kernel
thread support have been fixed to reflect the reality that we are really
dealing with processes, not threads. The VM system didn't have complete
thread support, so the comments and mis-named routines were just wrong.
We now use tsleep and wakeup directly in the lock routines, for instance.
6) Where appropriate, the pagers have been improved, especially in the
pager_alloc routines. Most of the pager_allocs have been rewritten and
are now faster and easier to maintain.
7) The pagedaemon pageout clustering algorithm has been rewritten and
now tries harder to output an even number of pages before and after
the requested page. This is sort of the reverse of the ideal pagein
algorithm and should provide better overall performance.
8) Unnecessary (incorrect) casts to caddr_t in calls to tsleep & wakeup
have been removed. Some other unnecessary casts have also been removed.
9) Some almost useless debugging code removed.
10) Terminology of shadow objects vs. backing objects straightened out.
The fact that the vm_object data structure escentially had this
backwards really confused things. The use of "shadow" and "backing
object" throughout the code is now internally consistent and correct
in the Mach terminology.
11) Several minor bug fixes, including one in the vm daemon that caused
0 RSS objects to not get purged as intended.
12) A "default pager" has now been created which cleans up the transition
of objects to the "swap" type. The previous checks throughout the code
for swp->pg_data != NULL were really ugly. This change also provides
the rudiments for future backing of "anonymous" memory by something
other than the swap pager (via the vnode pager, for example), and it
allows the decision about which of these pagers to use to be made
dynamically (although will need some additional decision code to do
this, of course).
13) (dyson) MAP_COPY has been deprecated and the corresponding "copy
object" code has been removed. MAP_COPY was undocumented and non-
standard. It was furthermore broken in several ways which caused its
behavior to degrade to MAP_PRIVATE. Binaries that use MAP_COPY will
continue to work correctly, but via the slightly different semantics
of MAP_PRIVATE.
14) (dyson) Sharing maps have been removed. It's marginal usefulness in a
threads design can be worked around in other ways. Both #12 and #13
were done to simplify the code and improve readability and maintain-
ability. (As were most all of these changes)
TODO:
1) Rewrite most of the vnode pager to use VOP_GETPAGES/PUTPAGES. Doing
this will reduce the vnode pager to a mere fraction of its current size.
2) Rewrite vm_fault and the swap/vnode pagers to use the clustering
information provided by the new haspage pager interface. This will
substantially reduce the overhead by eliminating a large number of
VOP_BMAP() calls. The VOP_BMAP() filesystem interface should be
improved to provide both a "behind" and "ahead" indication of
contiguousness.
3) Implement the extended features of pager_haspage in swap_pager_haspage().
It currently just says 0 pages ahead/behind.
4) Re-implement the swap device (swstrategy) in a more elegant way, perhaps
via a much more general mechanism that could also be used for disk
striping of regular filesystems.
5) Do something to improve the architecture of vm_object_collapse(). The
fact that it makes calls into the swap pager and knows too much about
how the swap pager operates really bothers me. It also doesn't allow
for collapsing of non-swap pager objects ("unnamed" objects backed by
other pagers).

This file is very incomplete. In particular, it doesn't mention any
network cards. This doesn't matter much for the base addresses, but
it means that the comments about which addresses are free are mostly
bogus. The i/o sizes are unreliable because of split address ranges
for many devices (VGA, wd). The i/o sizes are incomplete. In
particular, there are no sizes for SCSI controllers. The bt driver
still returns a truth value instead of a size.
- the major number wasn't checked, so accesses beyond the end of bdevsw[]
were possible. Bogus major numbers are easy to get because `sysctl -w'
doesn't handle dev_t's reasonably - it doesn't convert names to dev_t's
and it converts the number 1025 to the dev_t 0x35323031.
- Driver d_psize() functions return -1 to indicate error ENXIO or ENODEV
(the interface is too braindamaged to say which). -1 was interpreted
as a size and resulted in the bogus error ENOSPC.
- it was possible to set the dumpdev for devices without a d_psize()
function. This is equivalent to setting the dumpdev to NODEV except
it confuses sysctl.
- change a 512 to DEV_BSIZE. There is an official macro dtoc() for
converting "pages" to disk blocks but it is never used in /usr/src/sys.
There is much confusion between PAGE_SIZE sized pages and NBPG sized
pages. Maxmem consists of both.
Not fixed:
- there is nothing to invalidate the dumpdev if the media goes away.
This reduces the benefits of the early calculation of dumplo. Bounds
checking in the dump routines is relied on to reduce the risk of
damage and little would be lost by relying on the dump routines to
calculate dumplo.
- no attempt is made to stay away from the start of the device to
avoid clobbering labels.

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.

require specific partitions be mentioned in the kernel config
file ("swap on foo" is now obsolete).
From Poul-Henning:
The visible effect is this:
As default, unless
options "NSWAPDEV=23"
is in your config, you will have four swap-devices.
You can swapon(2) any block device you feel like, it doesn't have
to be in the kernel config.
There is a performance/resource win available by getting the NSWAPDEV right
(but only if you have just one swap-device ??), but using that as default
would be too restrictive.
The invisible effect is that:
Swap-handling disappears from the $arch part of the kernel.
It gets a lot simpler (-145 lines) and cleaner.

to access it. setdelayed() actually ORs the bits in `idelayed' into
`ipending' and clears `idelayed'.
Call setdelayed() every (normal) clock tick to convert delayed
interrupts into pending ones.
Drivers can set bits in `idelayed' at any time to schedule an interrupt
at the next clock tick. This is more efficient than calling timeout().
Currently only software interrupts can be scheduled.
