- Reduce available SPL levels for hardware devices to none, vm, sched, high.
- Acquire kernel_lock only for interrupts at IPL_VM.
- Implement threaded soft interrupts.
SEMMNI, SEMMNS, SEMUME and SHMMAXPGS.
They can be tweaked via sysctl now. Ports that were setting values on
them weren't touched, I only removed the ones that were commented out.
This branch was a major cleanup and rototill of many of the various OEA
cpu based PPC ports that focused on sharing as much code as possible
between the various ports to eliminate near-identical copies of files in
every tree. Additionally there is a new PIC system that unifies the
interface to interrupt code for all different OEA ppc arches. The work
for this branch was done by a variety of people, too long to list here.
TODO:
bebox still needs work to complete the transition to -renovation.
ofppc still needs a bunch of work, which I will be looking at.
ev64260 still needs to be renovated
amigappc was not attempted.
NOTES:
pmppc was removed as an arch, and moved to a evbppc target.
- Ffs internal snapshots get compiled in unconditionally.
- File system snapshot device fss(4) added to all kernel configs that
have a disk. Device is commented out on all non-GENERIC kernels.

All those kernels have a line for both tun and bridge, and if either is
commented out, tap is commented out also. With the exception of i386's
GENERIC_TINY.
XXX: we _need_ some way of making this more simple.
which is automatically included during kernel config, and add comments
to individual machine-dependant majors.* files to assign new MI majors
in MI file.
Range 0-191 is reserved for machine-specific assignments, range
192+ are MI assignments.

a pointer to current cpu's cpu_info structure. Use cpu_info for
intstk,intr_depth,still_stk,idle_pcb,curpcb,curlwp,etal even on
non-MULTIPROCESSOR machines. Add common macros GET_CPUINFO and
INIT_CPUINFO to get and initialize the cpu_info struct on startup. Make
ibm4xx use the standard <powerpc/frame.h>. Use IFRAME_xx in ibm4xx
trap_subr.S instead of explicit magic offsets. Move INTSTK and SPILLSTK
to std.<platform>. Change faultbuf to a struct instead of an array.
On MPC6XX cpus, stop using the vector page for temporary space and use
reserved space in cpu_info.
This merge changes the device switch tables from static array to
dynamically generated by config(8).
- All device switches is defined as a constant structure in device drivers.
- The new grammer ``device-major'' is introduced to ``files''.
device-major <prefix> char <num> [block <num>] [<rules>]
- All device major numbers must be listed up in port dependent majors.<arch>
by using this grammer.
- Added the new naming convention.
The name of the device switch must be <prefix>_[bc]devsw for auto-generation
of device switch tables.
- The backward compatibility of loading block/character device
switch by LKM framework is broken. This is necessary to convert
from block/character device major to device name in runtime and vice versa.
- The restriction to assign device major by LKM is completely removed.
We don't need to reserve LKM entries for dynamic loading of device switch.
- In compile time, device major numbers list is packed into the kernel and
the LKM framework will refer it to assign device major number dynamically.
