disklabel(8) to the kernel (dsopen()). Drivers should initialize the
hardware values (rpm, interleave, skews). Drivers currently don't do
this, but it usually doesn't matter since rotational position stuff is
normally disabled.
Original version by John Hay.
Simplified timestamp code by reading the time exactly when necessary.
This may slow down the interrupt handler with extra calls to microtime(),
but only in bad configurations - the input fifo should normally be
disabled if timestamps on input are being used, since otherwise the
timestamp won't be precisely associated with any particular input event.
The interrupt handler remains slowed down by one test and branch for
each input (and now DCD change) event - avoiding this is not practical
yet.
The simplifications also fixed:
- timestamps for input sometimes being clobbered by output and modem
status interrupts.
- valid timestamps not being available unless the port is configured with
vector siointrts. siointrts no longer exists.
- compiler warnings about siointr* in some configurations.
Simplified timestamp and probe code by depending on recent changes in
microtime() and DELAY() to preserve the interrupt enable flag.
enable flag instead of enable_intr() to restore it to its usual state.
getit() is only called from DELAY() so there is no point in optimising
its speed (this wasn't so clear when it was extern), and using
enable_intr() made it inconvenient to call DELAY() from probes that need
to run with interrupts disabled.
instead of sti to it restore to its usual state. pushfl/popfl is
actually faster in protected mode on Pentiums (4+3 cycles instead of 9),
and using sti made it extremely inconvenient to call microtime() from
fast interrupt handlers. pushfl/popfl is a couple of cycles slower than
sti on 486's and a couple more cycles slower on 386's, but the relative
cost of using it is not large since microtime() has to use slow i/o
instructions on the old cpus.
1) Make it much less likely to miss a wakeup in vm_page_free_wakeup
2) Create a new entry point into pmap: pmap_ts_referenced, eliminates
the need to scan the pv lists twice in many cases. Perhaps there
is alot more to do here to work on minimizing pv list manipulation
3) Minor improvements to vm_pageout including the use of pmap_ts_ref.
4) Major changes and code improvement to pmap. This code has had
several serious bugs in page table page manipulation. In order
to simplify the problem, and hopefully solve it for once and all,
page table pages are no longer "managed" with the pv list stuff.
Page table pages are only (mapped and held/wired) or
(free and unused) now. Page table pages are never inactive,
active or cached. These changes have probably fixed the
hold count problems, but if they haven't, then the code is
simpler anyway for future bugfixing.
5) The pmap code has been sorely in need of re-organization, and I
have taken a first (of probably many) steps. Please tell me
if you have any ideas.
1) Remove potential race conditions on waking up in vm_page_free_wakeup
by making sure that it is at splvm().
2) Fix another bug in vm_map_simplify_entry.
3) Be more complete about converting from default to swap pager
when an object grows to be large enough that there can be
a problem with data structure allocation under low memory
conditions.
4) Make some madvise code more efficient.
5) Added some comments.
. use new-style options
. introduce an option OD_AUTO_TURNOFF
. try to use the native geometry as reported by the drive instead of
a faked on -- MOs do have a ``classical'' geometry
. make the scsi_start_unit() actually working
. some cosmetic fixes

My 3C509B-COMBO works fine with the following patch. Switching between
UTP and BNC is quite easy. (Just type 'ifconfig ep0 link1 -link2' or 'ifconifg
ep0 link2 -link1'.)

better source layout, formatting, and textual conventions. I am told
that this code is no longer under active development, but it's a useful
hack for those interested in doing work on network security, key management,
etc. This code has only been tested twice, so it should be considered
highly experimental.

Poul mentioned that he thought this was some kind of timing problem, and
that started me thinking. After a little poking around, I found that
nfs_timer() was completely disabled when NFS_NOSERVER was #defined.
But after looking at nfs_timer(), it seemed like it was something
required by both the client and server code, and disabling it outright
just didn't seem to make any sense. Parts of it relate only to the
NFS server side code, so I disabled those, but I re-enabled the rest
of the function and made sure that it would be called from nfs_init()
(in nfs_subs.c).
With nfs_timer() re-enabled, everything seems to work again. The only
other changes I made were to #ifdef away some variable declarations
in the NFS_NOSERVER case so that gcc would stop complaining about
unused variables.

It is called from copyin and copyout.
The new routine is conditioned on I586_CPU and I586_FAST_BCOPY, so you
need
options "I586_FAST_BCOPY"
(quotes essenstial) in your kernel config file.
Also, if you have other kernel types configured in your kernel, an
additional check to make sure it is running on a Pentium is inserted.
(It is not clear why it doesn't help on P6s, it may be just that the
Orion chipset doesn't prefetch as efficiently as Tritons and friends.)
Bruce can now hack this away. :)
