thorpej eb20bbc780 Change the semantics of splsoftclock() to be like other spl*() functions,
that is priority is rasied.  Add a new spllowersoftclock() to provide the
atomic drop-to-softclock semantics that the old splsoftclock() provided,
and update calls accordingly.

This fixes a problem with using the "rnd" pseudo-device from within
interrupt context to extract random data (e.g. from within the softnet
interrupt) where doing so would incorrectly unblock interrupts (causing
all sorts of lossage).

XXX 4 platforms do not have priority-raising capability: newsmips, sparc,
XXX sparc64, and VAX.  This platforms still have this bug until their
XXX spl*() functions are fixed.

dbj 677f2cf93d fixed prototype of allocate_sir() 1999-08-04 07:14:13 +00:00
dbj fdba65aa8c renamed splscc to splserial to match spl(9) man page
changed most of the spl* to use _splraise to match current usage
this fixes an observed bug where zstty_attach was calling splzs causing
interrupts to be turned on prematurely.

dbj 277322402c Sync'ed more files and routines with mvme port in prepartion for UVM.
Now use generic m68k cachops everywhere rather than defining them in locore.s
