counters. These counters do not exist on all CPUs, but where they
do exist, can be used for counting events such as dcache misses that
would otherwise be difficult or impossible to instrument by code
inspection or hardware simulation.
pmc(9) is meant to be a general interface. Initially, the Intel XScale
counters are the only ones supported.
contains the values __SIMPLELOCK_LOCKED and __SIMPLELOCK_UNLOCKED, which
replace the old SIMPLELOCK_LOCKED and SIMPLELOCK_UNLOCKED. These files
are also required to supply inline functions __cpu_simple_lock(),
__cpu_simple_lock_try(), and __cpu_simple_unlock() if locking is to be
supported on that platform (i.e. if MULTIPROCESSOR is defined in the
_KERNEL case). Change these functions to take an int * (&alp->lock_data)
rather than the struct simplelock * itself.
These changes make it possible for userland to use the locking primitives
by including <machine/lock.h>.
Tree structure:
- sys/arch/sh3: sh3 generic code
As commented, in-chip device drivers are put into sys/arch/sh3/dev.
- sys/arch/evbsh3: sh3 evaluation boards (pure sh3 CPU, no fancy external HW)
- sys/arch/mmeye: Brains mmEye, www.brains.co.jp
MI source code includes couple of #ifdef for sh3-coff support.
(sh3 uses coff or elf)
Needs some more improvements, especialy in sys/arch/sh3/conf/files.sh3,
to compile the tree (due to last minute tree structure change).
