- Reduce available SPL levels for hardware devices to none, vm, sched, high.
- Acquire kernel_lock only for interrupts at IPL_VM.
- Implement threaded soft interrupts.
This branch was a major cleanup and rototill of many of the various OEA
cpu based PPC ports that focused on sharing as much code as possible
between the various ports to eliminate near-identical copies of files in
every tree. Additionally there is a new PIC system that unifies the
interface to interrupt code for all different OEA ppc arches. The work
for this branch was done by a variety of people, too long to list here.
TODO:
bebox still needs work to complete the transition to -renovation.
ofppc still needs a bunch of work, which I will be looking at.
ev64260 still needs to be renovated
amigappc was not attempted.
NOTES:
pmppc was removed as an arch, and moved to a evbppc target.
- finish implementing splraiseipl (and makeiplcookie).

- complete workqueue(9) and fix its ipl problem, which is reported
to cause audio skipping.
- fix netbt (at least compilation problems) for some ports.
- fix PR/33218.
- Remove the PCN_NO_PROM option. Instead, query the am79c970-no-eeprom
property, and read the MAC address from the CSRs if that property is TRUE.
In the ibmnws port:
- Implement device_register().
- In device_register(), set the am79c970-no-eeprom property for the
built-in Ethernet.
- Add COMPAT_15 to all the kernel that had COMPAT_14, for the sake of coherency
- Remove the only occurences of #ifdef COMPAT_15 in the tree: for the ARM
ports, COMPAT_15 was always used in conjunction with EXEC_AOUT. Only EXEC_AOUT
matters here.
This address kern/18407
for quite some time. Add it to all systems that have pcmcia SCSI.

was developed as part of Google's Summer of Code 2005 program. This
change adds the kernel code, the mount_tmpfs utility, a regression test
suite and does all other related changes to integrate these.
The file-system is still *experimental*. Therefore, it is disabled by
default in all kernels. However, as typically done, a commented-out
entry is added in them to ease its setup.
Note that I haven't commited the required mountd(8) changes to be able
to export tmpfs file-systems because NFS support is still very unstable
and because, before enabling it, I'd like to do some other changes.
OK'ed by my project mentor, William Studenmund (wrstuden@).
