The patched errata are only the AMD ones FreeBSD patches
(it seems there are no Intel errata that can be patched
this way, they are all in microcode updates ... or can't
be patched in the CPU at all.)
This also seems to be roughly the point in the boot that
FreeBSD patches these, too, despite how "critical" some
of them seem.

SMAP will generated page faults when the kernel tries to access user pages unless overriden.
If SMAP is enabled, the override instructions are written where needed in memory with
binary "altcodepatches".
Support is enabled by default, might be disabled per safemode setting.

The kernel is allowed to use fpu anywhere so we must make sure that
user state is not clobbered by saving fpu state at interrupt entry.
There is no need to do that in case of system calls since all fpu
data registers are caller saved.
We do not need, though, to save the whole fpu state at task swich
(again, thanks to calling convention). Only status and control
registers are preserved. This patch actually adds xmm0-15 register
to clobber list of task swich code, but the only reason of that is
to make sure that nothing bad happens inside the function that
executes that task swich. Inspection of the generated code shows
that no xmm registers are actually saved.

Enable SSE as a part of the "preparation of the environment to run any
C or C++ code" in the entry points of stage2 bootloader.
SSE2 is going to be used by memset() and memcpy().
Signed-off-by: Paweł Dziepak <pdziepak@quarnos.org>
The possibility to specify custom memcpy and memset implementations
in cpu modules is currently unused and there is generally no point
in such feature.
There are only 2 x86 vendors that really matter and there isn't
very big difference in performance of the generic optmized versions
of these funcions across different models. Even if we wanted different
versions of memset and memcpy depending on the processor model or
features much better solution would be to use STT_GNU_IFUNC and save
one indirect call.
Long story short, we don't really benefit in any way from
get_optimized_functions and the feature it implements and it only adds
unnecessary complexity to the code.

This patch makes it possible to inline rdmsr and wrmsr instruction. The
performance impact shouldn't be significant since they are used relatively
rarely and wrmsr is usually a serializing instruction, but there is no reason
not to do so.
The goal of this patch is to amortize the cost of context switch by making
the compiler aware that context switch clobbers all registers. Because all
register need to be saved anyway there is no additional cost of using
callee saved register in the function that does the context switch.
* Create new interface for cpuidle modules (similar to the cpufreq
interface)
* Generic cpuidle module is no longer needed
* Fix and update Intel C-State module
* Mostly useful for virtualization at the moment. Works in QEmu.
* Can be enabled by safemode settings/menu.
* Please note that x2APIC normally requires use of VT-d interrupt remapping feature
on real hardware, which we don't support yet.
Set execute disable bit for any page that belongs to area with neither
B_EXECUTE_AREA nor B_KERNEL_EXECUTE_AREA set.
In order to take advanage of NX bit in 32 bit protected mode PAE must be
enabled. Thus, from now on it is also enabled when the CPU supports NX bit.
vm_page_fault() takes additional argument which indicates whether page fault
was caused by an illegal instruction fetch.
The lowest 4 bits of the MSR serves as a hint to the hardware to
favor performance or energy saving. 0 means a hint preference for
highest performance while 15 corresponds to the maximum energy
savings. A value of 7 translates into a hint to balance performance
with energy savings.
The default reset value of the MSR is 0. If BIOS doesn't intialize
the MSR, the hardware will run in performance state. This patch
initialize the MSR with value of 7 for balance between performance
and energy savings

Renamed {32,64}/int.cpp to {32,64}/descriptors.cpp, which now contain
functions for GDT and TSS setup that were previously in arch_cpu.cpp,
as well as the IDT setup code. These get called from the init functions
in arch_cpu.cpp, rather than having a bunch of ifdef'd chunks of code
for 32/64.
Reused x86 arch_user_debugger.cpp, with a few minor changes to make
the code work for both 32 and 64 bit. Something isn't quite working
right, if a breakpoint is hit the kernel will hang. Other than that
everything appears to work correctly.
Userland switch is implemented, as is basic system call support (using
SYSCALL/SYSRET). The system call handler is not yet complete: it doesn't
handle more than 6 arguments, and does not perform all the necessary kernel
entry/exit work (neither does the interrupt handler). However, this is
sufficient for runtime_loader to start and print some debug output.
A proper page fault handler was required for areas that were not locked
into the kernel address space. This enables the boot process to get
up to the point of trying to find the boot volume.
* Thread creation and switching is working fine, however threads do not yet
get interrupted because I've not implemented hardware interrupt handling
yet (I'll do that next).
* I've made some changes to struct iframe: I've removed the e/r prefixes
from the member names for both 32/64, so now they're just named ip, ax,
bp, etc. This makes it easier to write code that works with both 32/64
without having to deal with different iframe member names.
* Uses 64-bit multiplication, special handling for CPUs clocked < 1 GHz
in system_time_nsecs() not required like on x86.
* Tested against a straight conversion of the x86 version, noticably
faster with a large number of system_time() calls.
* Some things are currently ifndef'd out completely for x86_64 because
they aren't implemented, there's a few other ifdef's to handle x86_64
differences but most of the code works unchanged.
* Renamed some i386_* functions to x86_*.
* Added a temporary method for setting the current thread on x86_64
(a global variable, not SMP safe). This will be changed to be done
via the GS segment but I've not implemented that yet.
Not many changes seeing as there's not much x86_64 stuff done yet. Small
differences are handled with ifdefs, large differences (descriptors.h,
struct iframe) have separate headers under arch/x86/32 and arch/x86/64.
AMD C1E is a BIOS controlled C3 state. Certain processors families
may cut off TSC and the lapic timer when it is in a deep C state,
including C1E state, thus the cpu can't be waken up and system will hang.
This patch firstly adds the support of idle selection during boot. Then
it implements amdc1e_noarat_idle() routine which checks the MSR which
contains the C1eOnCmpHalt (bit 28) and SmiOnCmpHalt (bit 27) before
executing the halt instruction, then clear them once set.
However intel C1E doesn't has such problem. AMD C1E is a BIOS controlled
C3 state. The difference between C1E and C3 is that transition into C1E
is not initiated by the operating system. System will enter C1E state
automatically when both cores enters C1 state. As for intel C1E, it
means "reduce CPU voltage before entering corresponding Cx-state".
This patch may fix#8111, #3999, #7562, #7940 and #8060
Copied from the description of #3999:
>but for some reason I hit the power button instead of the reset one. And
>the boot continued!!
The reason is CPUs are waken up once power button is hit.

* Prepend x86_ to non-static x86 code
* Add x86_init_fpu function to kernel header
* Don't init fpu multiple times on smp systems
* Verified fpu is still started on smp and non-smp
* SSE code still generates general protection faults
on smp systems though
* Rename init_sse to init_fpu and handle FPU setup.
* Stop trying to set up FPU before VM init.
We tried to set up the FPU before VM init, then
set it up again after VM init with SSE extensions,
this caused SSE and MMX applications to crash.
* Be more logical in FPU setup by detecting CPU flag prior
to enabling FPU. (it's unlikely Haiku will run on
a processor without a fpu... but lets be consistant)
* SSE2 gcc code now runs (faster even) without GPF
* tqh confirms his previously crashing mmx code now works
* The non-SSE FPU enable after VM init needs tested!
* Reorganized the kernel locking related to threads and teams.
* We now discriminate correctly between process and thread signals. Signal
handlers have been moved to teams. Fixes#5679.
* Implemented real-time signal support, including signal queuing, SA_SIGINFO
support, sigqueue(), sigwaitinfo(), sigtimedwait(), waitid(), and the addition
of the real-time signal range. Closes#1935 and #2695.
* Gave SIGBUS a separate signal number. Fixes#6704.
* Implemented <time.h> clock and timer support, and fixed/completed alarm() and
[set]itimer(). Closes#5682.
* Implemented support for thread cancellation. Closes#5686.
* Moved send_signal() from <signal.h> to <OS.h>. Fixes#7554.
* Lots over smaller more or less related changes.

* Renamed i386_context_switch() to x86_context_switch().
* x86_context_switch() no longer sets the page directory.
arch_thread_context_switch() does that explicitly, now. This allows to solve
the TODO by reordering releasing the previous paging structures reference and
setting the new page directory.
