driver to the main acpi(4) stack. Follow Linux and evaluate it early.
Should fix PR port-amd64/42895, possibly also PR kern/42583, and many
other comparable bugs.
A common sense explanation is that Intel supplies additional CPU tables to
OEMs. BIOS writers do not bother to modify their DSDTs, but instead load
these extra tables dynamically as secondary SSDT tables. The actual Load()
happens when the _PDC method is invoked, and thus namespace errors occur
when the CPU-specific ACPI methods are not yet present but referenced in the
AML by various drivers, including, but not limited to, acpitz(4).
don't build the uvm_object.c uvm_object_printit() for _RUMPKERNEL. (XXX)
add empty panic() stubs for uvm_loanbreak() and ubc_purge().
fixes some more 5.99.53 rump build issues.
in the alpha ARM 4.7.8.1 (Accessing the FPCR):
Because Alpha floating-point hardware can overlap the execution of
a number of floating-point instructions, accessing the FPCR must
be synchronized with other floating-point instructions. An EXCB
instruction must be issued both prior to and after accessing the
FPCR to ensure that the FPCR access is synchronized with the
execution of previous and subsequent floating-point instructions;
otherwise synchronization is not ensured.
Use unions to convert between double and uint64_t to avoid casting.
pmapexechist. This replaces the old pmapdebug/PDB stuff.
In ddb, you can just use kernhist_dump(pmaphist) to view the history
or vmstat -H from userland.
- Reorganize locking in UVM and provide extra serialisation for pmap(9).
New lock order: [vmpage-owner-lock] -> pmap-lock.
- Simplify locking in some pmap(9) modules by removing P->V locking.
- Use lock object on vmobjlock (and thus vnode_t::v_interlock) to share
the locks amongst UVM objects where necessary (tmpfs, layerfs, unionfs).
- Rewrite and optimise x86 TLB shootdown code, make it simpler and cleaner.
Add TLBSTATS option for x86 to collect statistics about TLB shootdowns.
- Unify /dev/mem et al in MI code and provide required locking (removes
kernel-lock on some ports). Also, avoid cache-aliasing issues.
Thanks to Andrew Doran and Joerg Sonnenberger, as their initial patches
formed the core changes of this branch.
