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.
and use appropriately
- create more helper macros:
. cdev__xyz_init(c,n), such as cdev__ocri_init() for
/* open, close, read, ioctl */, etc.
. cdev__xRy_init(c,n), where nullop is used instead of enodev to dummy out
method `R' and the comments now read /* xxx (read) yyy */ instead
. cdev__xyz_t_init(c,n,t) - as per cdev__xyz_init, but sets d_type = t
as well
- use seltrue instead of dev_noimpl(poll,*), as (IIRC) cdevsw.d_poll should
always DTRT WRT returning a valid result. (a few devices previously
incorrectly returned ENODEV)
- use dev_noimpl(stop,enodev) instead of dev_noimpl(stop,nullop) if tty
== 0, because it doesn't matter if dev_type_stop isn't implemented in that
case, and it allows the use of the cdev__xyz_init macros. certain ports
(sparc,sparc64,x68k) used the nullop method for dev_type_stop in a few
drivers, whereas everything else uses enodev
- ensure that the comments are accurate WRT the behaviour of a given entry
and place the definition in <machine/types.h>. This can now be used
as a flag to indicate whether or not <machine/intr.h> can be included
to get the generic soft interrupt API.
- for sizeof(void *) == 8 arch, this is mandatory. MHLEN is too small
already (less than 80) and there are chances for unwanted packet loss due
to m_pullup restriction.
- for other cases, the change should avoid allocating clusters in most cases
(even when you have IPv4 IPsec tunnel, or IPv6 with moderate amount of
extension header)
portmasters: if your arch chokes with the change (high memory usage or
whatever), please backout the change for your arch.
state into global and per-CPU scheduler state:
- Global state: sched_qs (run queues), sched_whichqs (bitmap
of non-empty run queues), sched_slpque (sleep queues).
NOTE: These may collectively move into a struct schedstate
at some point in the future.
- Per-CPU state, struct schedstate_percpu: spc_runtime
(time process on this CPU started running), spc_flags
(replaces struct proc's p_schedflags), and
spc_curpriority (usrpri of processes on this CPU).
- Every platform must now supply a struct cpu_info and
a curcpu() macro. Simplify existing cpu_info declarations
where appropriate.
- All references to per-CPU scheduler state now made through
curcpu(). NOTE: this will likely be adjusted in the future
after further changes to struct proc are made.
Tested on i386 and Alpha. Changes are mostly mechanical, but apologies
in advance if it doesn't compile on a particular platform.
Lots of the work was done by Adam Ciarcinsky.
Currently, this only supports CyberPPC boards by Phase 5. Blizzard PPC
expected later.
The kernel is useless but for demonstrating that it starts... especially
interupts, and most of MMU support, is not in yet. Builtin console works,
however, and you can look at the kernel startup messages.
