What's wrong; the initial SR value in pcb0 gets overwritten before
the first kthread_create1() is called. For a normal process which
has user mode it doesn't matter because proc_trampoline() makes
the process to have spl0 during exception return path to user mode,
however, kthreads stay in kernel mode mistakenly left in splhigh
condition. The trouble is visible as severe clock drifts when
system activity is high.
is created. System kthreads are mistakenly left splhigh state.
pcb0 has an initial SR value for spl0 condition which are expected to
be propagated to all of children

each vm_page structure. Add a VM_MDPAGE_INIT() macro to init this
data when pages are initialized by UVM. These macros are mandatory,
but ports may #define them to nothing if they are not needed/used.
This deprecates struct pmap_physseg. As a transitional measure,
allow a port to #define PMAP_PHYSSEG so that it can continue to
use it until its pmap is converted to use VM_MDPAGE_MEMBERS.
Use all this stuff to eliminate a lot of extra work in the Alpha
pmap module (it's smaller and faster now). Changes to other pmap
modules will follow.
to <sys/types.h> and <sys/stdint.h>.
* Add a new C99 <stdint.h> header, which provides integer types of
explicit width, related limits and integer constant macros.
* Extend <inttypes.h> to provide <stdint.h> definitions and format
macros for printf() and scanf().
* Add C99 strtoimax() and strtoumax() functions.
* Use the latter within scanf().
* Add C99 %j, %t and %z printf()/scanf() conversions for
intmax_t, pointer-type and size_t arguments.

These calls are relatively conservative. It may be possible to
optimize these a little more.
calling pmap_steal_memory() directly. On these platforms, since
uvm_pageboot_alloc() is a wrapper around pmap_steal_memory(), there
is no functional change. This is merely for API consistency.
which have pmap_steal_memory(). This is to reduce the API differences
between pmaps that implement pmap_steal_memory() and pmaps which do
not.
Note that pmap_steal_memory() needs to adjust *vstartp and/or
*vendp only if it used addresses within the range provided to UVM
via the pmap_virtual_space() call. I.e. it is not necessary to do
so in any current pmap_steal_memory() implementation.
call overhead is incurred as we start sprinkling pmap_update() calls
throughout the source tree (no pmaps currently defer operations, but
we are adding the infrastructure to allow them to do so).
when error is ERESTART. otherwise, user process will re-issue syscall
with broken system call number and get SIGSYS signal and terminate.

and link it directly to db_command_table[] so that it's not necessary
to do this at runtime. Make db_machine_command_table[] const on all ports.

- Use syscall_intern() to give a process a plain or fancy
syscall based on ktrace flags.
- Avoid copying from the trapframe into a local array as much
as possible.
Yields roughly 5% improvement on a 25MHz R3000 (DECstation 5000/200)
on a simple syscall benchmark.
There's still some work that can be done using __HAVE_MINIMAL_EMUL.
XXX if you have libc after citrus locale import, please recompile libc,
and your applications that use mbstate_t (rather rare). really sorry
for the mess.

This addresses kern/10981 by Matthew Orgass.
* move all exec-type specific information from struct emul to execsw[] and
provide single struct emul per emulation
* elf:
- kern/exec_elf32.c:probe_funcs[] is gone, execsw[] how has one entry
per emulation and contains pointer to respective probe function
- interp is allocated via MALLOC() rather than on stack
- elf_args structure is allocated via MALLOC() rather than malloc()
* ecoff: the per-emulation hooks moved from alpha and mips specific code
to OSF1 and Ultrix compat code as appropriate, execsw[] has one entry per
emulation supporting ecoff with appropriate probe function
* the makecmds/probe functions don't set emulation, pointer to emulation is
part of appropriate execsw[] entry
* constify couple of structures
running with multi-way caches. Since we know the ops will mostly
hit as we just dirtied those lines a single hit op is cheaper than
an index op for each way.
only allowing one mapping at a time instead of mapping uncached. Done
by removing conflicting mappings from the pmap when entering a new
mapping. UVM will remember and re-fault the requested page when needed
for the original mapping. Originally done to support our internal machine
that does not support uncached memory completely. Not enabled by default
currently. It may make sense to try on the cobalt or sgi ports.
the page is wired down. Flushing both halves of a wired TLB entry resulted
in hangs when in programs called for and released kernel memory
soon after being invoked. In particular, we see this when single-stepping
a process using GDB.
It would be better if we could arrange to use both halves of the TLB
entry for the PCB, but for some reason we frequently end up with things
on an odd page boundary.
pmap_enter() cannot allocate the segmap return failure if PMAP_CANFAIL
instead of sleeping. Otherwise panic. Both alpha and i386 do this. Do
not pmap_enter_pv() until after this is done so the data structures are
not partially allocated. This should prevent pmap_page_protect() from
getting stuck when called from pagedaemon.
