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.
using the cycle counter. MP-safeness is achieved by giving each
CPU its own PCC frequency variables, and kicking the non-primary
processors via an IPI once per second.
Based on the sample code from David Mills' "A Kernel Model for
Precision Timekeeping".
Both models tested and seem to be quite stable and fast.
Thanks to:
- Hans Hubner <hans@Huebner.org> for giving me the cards for testing
- Georg Klug of Syskonnect, who provided me with hw docs for these cards,
very promptly and willingly - I wish all vendors would be like this
- Alfred Arnold, Linux SKNET driver author, for giving me valuable Syskonnect
contact :)
This is a completely rewritten scsipi_xfer execution engine, and the
associated changes to HBA drivers. Overview of changes & features:
- All xfers are queued in the mid-layer, rather than doing so in an
ad-hoc fashion in individual adapter drivers.
- Adapter/channel resource management in the mid-layer, avoids even trying
to start running an xfer if the adapter/channel doesn't have the resources.
- Better communication between the mid-layer and the adapters.
- Asynchronous event notification mechanism from adapter to mid-layer and
peripherals.
- Better peripheral queue management: freeze/thaw, sorted requeueing during
recovery, etc.
- Clean separation of peripherals, adapters, and adapter channels (no more
scsipi_link).
- Kernel thread for each scsipi_channel makes error recovery much easier
(no more dealing with interrupt context when recovering from an error).
- Mid-layer support for tagged queueing: commands can have the tag type
set explicitly, tag IDs are allocated in the mid-layer (thus eliminating
the need to use buggy tag ID allocation schemes in many adapter drivers).
- support for QUEUE FULL and CHECK CONDITION status in mid-layer; the command
will be requeued, or a REQUEST SENSE will be sent as appropriate.
