idle lwp, and some changes depending on it.
1. separate context switching and thread scheduling.
(cf. gmcgarry_ctxsw)
2. implement idle lwp.
3. clean up related MD/MI interfaces.
4. make scheduler(s) modular.
int _bus_dmatag_subregion(bus_dma_tag_t tag,
bus_addr_t min_addr,
bus_addr_t max_addr,

int flags)
void _bus_dmatag_destroy(bus_dma_tag_t tag)
that allow a (normally broken/limited) device to restrict the bus address
range it can talk to. this is used by bce(4) to limit DMA addresses to
1GB range, the maximum the chip can address.
all this is from Yorick Hardy <yhardy@uj.ac.za> with input from several
people on tech-kern.
XXX: bus_dma(9) needs an update still.
by Slava Semushin <slava.semushin@gmail.com>.
To verify that no nasty side effects of duplicate includes (or their
removal) have an effect here, I've compiled an i386/ALL kernel with
and without the patch, and the only difference in the resulting .o
files was in shifted line numbers in some assert() calls.
The comparison of the .o files was based on the output of "objdump -D".
Thanks to martin@ for the input on testing.
- finish implementing splraiseipl (and makeiplcookie).
http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/tech-kern/2006/07/01/0000.html
- 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.
version.
Add disk_blocksize(9) so that disk drivers can record the physical
block size of a disk if it is different to DEV_BSIZE. Right now this
simply initialises dk_blkshift and dk_byteshift according to the
supplied block size. This information is used in the MI version of
bounds_check_with_label().
from cpu_configure(9) to cpu_initclocks(9) on mips ports which use
mips3_clockintr.c:mips3_clockintr() (i.e. CPU INT5 clock) to avoid
hardclock(9) before softclock interrupt is initialized in initclocks().
This should be harmless because initclocks() is a part of configure()
in these days and there is no MI function which expects hardware
interrupts between cpu_configure(9) and cpu_initclocks(9).
Disccussed on tech-kern and port-mips.
- 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
useful. The functions delay, cpu_initclocks, and setstatclcokrate have been
renamed to mips3_delay, mips3_initclocks, and mips3_setstatclockrate.
We provide weak aliases for the original names, so machdep code doesn't have
to provide wrapper routines. (Giving good performance.)
I've moved mips3_clockintr, mips3_initclocks, and mips3_setstatclockrate to
their own mips3_clockintr file, because some ports may not be able to use
these, and its senseless to carry that baggage.
Convert to timecounters.
From Rivo Nurges (rix at estpak dot ee). ok soren@, tested by simon@.
Note that this means we aren't using the gt clock, and maybe we should clean
that up a bit.

# XXX Disable zero-copy page loaning in sosend() temporarily:
# PV mappings created by sosend_loan() in sys/kern/uipc_socket.c may
# produce virtual cache aliases and it seems to cause TLB MISS panic
# in cache flush code called from bus_dmamap_sync(9) PREWRITE ops
# during heavy TX packet traffic on tlp(4).
works properly
(XXX: the real fix is to implement proper CLFK_BASEPRI())
- prepare an independent statclock(9) handler which use MIPS3 CPU internal
clock interrupt. Enabled by options ENABLE_INT5_STATCLOCK, but not enabled
by default.
This allows us to convert aucom to just another com attachment, and cleanup
some code in the com_arbus.c.
Additionally, we use a common com_cleanup routine rather than having a
zillion copies of it in the attachment points.
This has been tested on a number architectures, and it has been shown to get
close to comparable performance when COM_REGMAP is defined, and comparable
when it is not defined.
Approved by core@. Fixes PR port-evbmips/32362.
- move ICU interrupt stuff from pci/pcib.h to cobalt/machdep.c
because ICU should be initialized before pcib is attached
- initialize ICU more properly
- check interrupt types and set ELCR (edge/level control registers)
accordingly in icu_intr_establish()
- check requested IRQ line and call only a necessary hander in icu_intr()
- use specific EOI to ack interrupts rather than AEOI
- use macro defined in <dev/ic/i8259reg.h>
