already-existing device nodes. This is done by invoking pax with its
current working directory set to an empty temporary directory.
* Add "-t mtree" command line option, to force MAKEDEV to use "mtree
-e -U" to create device nodes. Here are some timings from "MAKEDEV
${method} all" on an i386 system; each method was executed three
times, first in an empty directory, then twice in an already-populated
directory:
-m mknod
4.56 real 1.58 user 1.68 sys
2.96 real 1.37 user 1.48 sys
2.95 real 1.43 user 1.44 sys
-p pax
1.80 real 0.18 user 0.62 sys
2.35 real 0.25 user 0.80 sys
2.38 real 0.24 user 0.82 sys
-t mtree
1.62 real 0.22 user 0.44 sys
0.23 real 0.29 user 0.04 sys
0.24 real 0.28 user 0.05 sys
* If no command line options force a choice, then prefer mtree, pax, or
mknod, in that order of preference.
No objections in tech-userlevel to an earlier version of this change.
- use partition 'e' for a disk with no NetBSD slice.
- add Linux ATAG to feature ELF Linux kernel booting. Commented out for now.
- fix errors to retrieve iospace BARs.
- don't use separate statintr on primary CPU.
- invoke clockintr instead of statintr on secondary CPUs.
This change fixes the problem setitimer(2) didn't work on secodary CPUs.
- Make ipflow_reap() private to ip_flow.c, and introduce ipflow_prune()
for external callers to use (avoids returning an ipflow * that is never
actually used anyway).
- percpu_getptr() is now called percpu_getref() and implicitly disables
preemption (via crit_enter()) when it is called.
- Added percpu_putref() which implicitly reenables preemption (via
crit_exit()).
at elansc(4). Take advantage of a suspend/resume cycle to reconfigure
the SC520's PCI host-bridge bus for higher performance. Update
the manual pages and the NET4501 kernel.
/etc/mtree/special not just add new entries.
Explain that check_mtree_follow_symlinks will give reports of links not
being links (notably /etc/localtime)
figuring out all the crazy nuances of getting this working, and to
Michael Lorenz for testing/fixing my changes on macppc. Tested with a
quad-proc 7044-270.
Summary of changes:
Bumped CPU_MAXNUM to 16 on ofppc.
Added md_* routines to ofppc/cpu.c, to sync the timebase, and awaken the CPUs.
Fixed a bug in the test for a 64bit bridge cpu early in locore.S
Added code to set the interrupt priority for all CPUs with an openpic.
Change rtas to probe before cpus, to allow use of the rtas freeze/thaw
timebase code routines.
Fix CPU_INFO_FOREACH macro to iterate through detected cpus, not CPU_MAXNUM.
Change most uses of ci_cpuid to ci_index, to deal with CPUs that do not allow
writing to SPR_PIR. Don't write SPR_PIR unless the secondary cpu identifies
itself as 0.
Change the hatchstack/interrupt stack allocations to allocate a 8192byte
interrupt stack, and a 4096 byte hatch stack, align them to 16 bytes, and
allocate them no lower than 0x10000. Allocate them separately to prevent the
hatch stack corrupting the interrupt stack later on.
If the CPU is a 64bit cpu, copy SPR_ASR in cpu_hatch()
Set the idle stack to ci->ci_data.cpu_idlelwp->l_addr->u_pcb.pcb_sp.
Add OF_start_cpu(). Add a routine to ofwoea_initppc to spin up secondary
procs early, and place them into a spinloop waiting for the hatch routines
to be ready.
Modify the ipi routines to deal with openpics that reverse byte order on read
from an ipi register. (such as on the 7044)
Change the rtas setup to allocate the rtas physical base address above
the kernel, to avoid mucking up the hatch/interrupt stacks.
