executable mappings. Stop overloading VTEXT for this purpose (VTEXT
also has another meaning).
- Rename vn_marktext() to vn_markexec(), and use it when executable
mappings of a vnode are established.
- In places where we want to set VTEXT, set it in v_flag directly, rather
than making a function call to do this (it no longer makes sense to
use a function call, since we no longer overload VTEXT with VEXECMAP's
meaning).
VEXECMAP suggested by Chuq Silvers.
the etc Makefile override that by putting USETOOLS into $.MAKEOVERRIDES
This way the default for kernel compiles is still to use the installed
toolchain instead of depending on $TOOLDIR. $TOOLDIR can be used by
simply adding USETOOLS=yes to the command line as usual.
Adjust each ports template to set the default no setting and also pull in
bsd.own.mk if they weren't already to ensure they'll build correctly
with the new toolchain setup.
COP0_SYNC
In R5900 mtc0, tlbr, tlbp, tlbwi, tlbwr must be followed by sync.p.
if defined MIPS3_5900, COP0_SYNC is defined as sync.p. else nothing.
IPL_ICU_MASK

I've added this feature to support software interrupt for R5900.

Struct emul has a e_setregs hook back, which points to emulation-specific
setregs function. es_setregs of struct execsw now only points to
optional executable-specific setup function (this is only used for
ECOFF).
This will allow improvements to the pmaps so that they can more easily defer expensive operations, eg tlb/cache flush, til the last possible moment.
Currently this is a no-op on most platforms, so they should see no difference.

- avoid trusting the optimizer in pmap_clear_reference().
- fix pmap_clear_modify() to reset the mod-bit emulation so we can
detect further modifications to the page, also flushing the cache
for any mappings which might have dirty lines.

in pmap_enter(), only call pmap_remove() to remove an existing mapping
if there actually is an existing mapping.
in pmap_remove_pv(), don't flush the MIPS1 cache when removing the last mapping.
this was added in rev 1.97, to avoid stale data being left in the cache
when the page is zeroed bypassing the cache in pmap_zero_page_uncached().
we've since found that bypassing the cache for idle-loop page zeroing
doesn't work very well anyway, so we don't do that anymore.
so now we can remove the extra cache-flush.

interrupt to sneak in after EXL had been set; the interrupt EPC was stale

place and leading to kernel-mode TLB misses on user addresses. The bug
was discovered by the japanese NetBSD/*mips folks and the same fix was
found independently by shinohara-san (shin@netbsd.org).

there are just far too many combinations to handle with magic
#ifdefs in any sane way. Also, add a HitFlushDCache op to the
"locoresw", and fill it in as appropriate (it's NULL on MIPS-I,
so watch out).
These changes ensure that my R4600 Indy (with 2-way cache) gets
the correct cache ops when the kernel is built with only MIPS3
support, resulting in a kernel that is significantly more stable.

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.

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

Note that pmap_steal_memory() needs to adjust *vstartp and/or

so in any current pmap_steal_memory() implementation.

we are adding the infrastructure to allow them to do so).

by removing conflicting mappings from the pmap when entering a new

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.
