- Replace most remaining uses of l_addr with uvm_lwp_getuarea() or lwp_getpcb().
- Amend assembly in ports where it accesses PCB via struct user.
- Rename L_ADDR to L_PCB in few places. Reduce sys/user.h inclusions.
This allows use of subr_disk_mbr on all archs. Default to it for
the rump disk component. No functional change for regular kernels.
(The other option would've been to include dkbad in disklabels
everywhere, but arguably this approach has less possible side-effects,
especially given that wedges and related magic will take over the
world any second now).
- Addresses the issue described in PR/38828.
- Some simplification in threading and sleepq subsystems.
- Eliminates pmap_collect() and, as a side note, allows pmap optimisations.
- Eliminates XS_CTL_DATA_ONSTACK in scsipi code.
- Avoids few scans on LWP list and thus potentially long holds of proc_lock.
- Cuts ~1.5k lines of code. Reduces amd64 kernel size by ~4k.
- Removes __SWAP_BROKEN cases.
Tested on x86, mips, acorn32 (thanks <mpumford>) and partly tested on
acorn26 (thanks to <bjh21>).
Discussed on <tech-kern>, reviewed by <ad>.
There are still about 1600 left, but they have ',' or /* ... */
in the actual variable definitions - which my awk script doesn't handle.
There are also many that need () -> (void).
(The script does handle misordered arguments.)
- renamed to MEMORY_DISK_RBFLAGS to better fit the rest of the
MEMORY_DISK options(4)
- change default value to RB_AUTOBOOT instead of RB_SINGLE, and adapt
the config(5) files accordingly
- document this option inside options(4)

which is now the "API" provided by the pmap module. pmap_kernel()
remains as the syntactic sugar.
Bonus cosmetics round: move all the pmap_t pointer typedefs into
uvm_pmap.h.
Thanks to Greg Oster for providing cpu muscle for doing test builds.
phases, so move the initialization of the ksyms mutex back into main via
a function called ksyms_init. Rename the existing (but quite different)
ksyms_init* variations into ksyms_addsyms_elf() and ksyms_addsyms_explicit()
and adapt machdep code accordingly.
Make all the kernels that currently include their corresponding GENERIC.local
file use the cinclude directive instead of include. This way config(1) will
not complain if the file cannot be found.
After doing this, remove the GENERIC.local files from the repository so that
the user will not see modified files during updates, and local changes to
them cannot end up in the repository by mistake.
Discussed in tech-kern@ earlier this month. No strong objections.
