MFC r332752: set kdb_why to "trap" when calling kdb_trap from trap_fatal
This will allow to hook a ddb script to "kdb.enter.trap" event. Previously there was no specific name for this event, so it could only be handled by either "kdb.enter.unknown" or "kdb.enter.default" hooks. Both are very unspecific.
Having a specific event is useful because the fatal trap condition is very similar to panic but it has an additional property that the current stack frame is the frame where the trap occurred. So, both a register dump and a stack bottom dump have additional information that can help analyze the problem.
I have added the event only on architectures that have trap_fatal() function defined. I haven't looked at other architectures. Their maintainers can add support for the event later.
Sample script: kdb.enter.trap=bt; show reg; x/aS $rsp,20; x/agx $rsp,20
Note: changes to powerpc/aim/trap.c and powerpc/booke/trap.c are direct changes.

The soft and hard busy mechanism rely on the vm object lock to work. Unify the 2 concept into a real, minimal, sxlock where the shared acquisition represent the soft busy and the exclusive acquisition represent the hard busy. The old VPO_WANTED mechanism becames the hard-path for this new lock and it becomes per-page rather than per-object. The vm_object lock becames an interlock for this functionality: it can be held in both read or write mode. However, if the vm_object lock is held in read mode while acquiring or releasing the busy state, the thread owner cannot make any assumption on the busy state unless it is also busying it.
Also: - Add a new flag to directly shared busy pages while vm_page_alloc and vm_page_grab are being executed. This will be very helpful once these functions happen under a read object lock. - Move the swapping sleep into its own per-object flag
The KPI is heavilly changed this is why the version is bumped. It is very likely that some VM ports users will need to change their own code.

Add pmap function pmap_copy_pages(), which copies the content of the pages around, taking array of vm_page_t both for source and destination. Starting offsets and total transfer size are specified.
The function implements optimal algorithm for copying using the platform-specific optimizations. For instance, on the architectures were the direct map is available, no transient mappings are created, for i386 the per-cpu ephemeral page frame is used. The code was typically borrowed from the pmap_copy_page() for the same architecture.
Only i386/amd64, powerpc aim and arm/arm-v6 implementations were tested at the time of commit. High-level code, not committed yet to the tree, ensures that the use of the function is only allowed after explicit enablement.
For sparc64, the existing code has known issues and a stab is added instead, to allow the kernel linking.

Switch the vm_object mutex to be a rwlock. This will enable in the future further optimizations where the vm_object lock will be held in read mode most of the time the page cache resident pool of pages are accessed for reading purposes.
The change is mostly mechanical but few notes are reported: * The KPI changes as follow: - VM_OBJECT_LOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WLOCK() - VM_OBJECT_TRYLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_TRYWLOCK() - VM_OBJECT_UNLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WUNLOCK() - VM_OBJECT_LOCK_ASSERT(MA_OWNED) -> VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_WLOCKED() (in order to avoid visibility of implementation details) - The read-mode operations are added: VM_OBJECT_RLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_TRYRLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_RUNLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_RLOCKED(), VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_LOCKED() * The vm/vm_pager.h namespace pollution avoidance (forcing requiring sys/mutex.h in consumers directly to cater its inlining functions using VM_OBJECT_LOCK()) imposes that all the vm/vm_pager.h consumers now must include also sys/rwlock.h. * zfs requires a quite convoluted fix to include FreeBSD rwlocks into the compat layer because the name clash between FreeBSD and solaris versions must be avoided. At this purpose zfs redefines the vm_object locking functions directly, isolating the FreeBSD components in specific compat stubs.
The KPI results heavilly broken by this commit. Thirdy part ports must be updated accordingly (I can think off-hand of VirtualBox, for example).

Merge from vmc-playground branch: Replace the sub-optimal uma_zone_set_obj() primitive with more modern uma_zone_reserve_kva(). The new primitive reserves before hand the necessary KVA space to cater the zone allocations and allocates pages with ALLOC_NOOBJ. More specifically: - uma_zone_reserve_kva() does not need an object to cater the backend allocator. - uma_zone_reserve_kva() can cater M_WAITOK requests, in order to serve zones which need to do uma_prealloc() too. - When possible, uma_zone_reserve_kva() uses directly the direct-mapping by uma_small_alloc() rather than relying on the KVA / offset combination.
The removal of the object attribute allows 2 further changes: 1) _vm_object_allocate() becomes static within vm_object.c 2) VM_OBJECT_LOCK_INIT() is removed. This function is replaced by direct calls to mtx_init() as there is no need to export it anymore and the calls aren't either homogeneous anymore: there are now small differences between arguments passed to mtx_init().

This makes sure that the APs get configured the same as the BSP, irrspective of how FreeBSD was loaded. 2. Make sure to flush the dcache after writing the TLB1 entries to the boot page. The APs aren't part of the coherency domain just yet. 3. Set pmap_bootstrapped after calling pmap_bootstrap(). The FDT code now maps the devices (like OF), and this resulted in a panic. 4.

The boot code does not yet write markers (too follow). o Disable the boot page translation to allow the last 4K page to be used for whatever we please. It would get mapped otherwise. o Fix kernstart in the case of SMP. The start argument is typically page aligned due to the alignment requirements that come with having a boot page. The point of using trunc_page is that we get the actual load address given that the entry point is immediately following the ELF headers. In the SMP case this ended up exactly 4K after the load address. Hence subtracting 1 from start.

Split the vm_page flags PG_WRITEABLE and PG_REFERENCED into atomic flags field. Updates to the atomic flags are performed using the atomic ops on the containing word, do not require any vm lock to be held, and are non-blocking. The vm_page_aflag_set(9) and vm_page_aflag_clear(9) functions are provided to modify afalgs.
Document the changes to flags field to only require the page lock.
Introduce vm_page_reference(9) function to provide a stable KPI and KBI for filesystems like tmpfs and zfs which need to mark a page as referenced.

As a consequence, pmap code now can use use just VPO_UNMANAGED to decide whether the page is unmanaged.

Add support for Juniper's loader. The difference between FreeBSD's and Juniper's loader is that Juniper's loader maps all of the kernel and preloaded modules at the right virtual address before jumping into the kernel. FreeBSD's loader simply maps 16MB using the physical address and expects the kernel to jump through hoops to relocate itself to it's virtual address. The problem with the FreeBSD loader's approach is that it typically maps too much or too little. There's no harm if it's too much (other than wasting space), but if it's too little then the kernel will simply not boot, because the first thing the kernel needs is the bootinfo structure, which is never mapped in that case. The page fault that early is fatal.
The changes constitute: 1. Do not remap the kernel in locore.S. We're mapped where we need to be so we can pretty much call into C code after setting up the stack. 2. With kernload and kernload_ap not set in locore.S, we need to set them in pmap.c: kernload gets defined when we preserve the TLB1. Here we also determine the size of the kernel mapped. kernload_ap is set first thing in the pmap_bootstrap() method. 3. Fix tlb1_map_region() and its use to properly externd the mapped kernel size to include low-level data structures.

With retirement of cpumask_t and usage of cpuset_t for representing a mask of CPUs, pc_other_cpus and pc_cpumask become highly inefficient.
Remove them and replace their usage with custom pc_cpuid magic (as, atm, pc_cpumask can be easilly represented by (1 << pc_cpuid) and pc_other_cpus by (all_cpus & ~(1 << pc_cpuid))).
This change is not targeted for MFC because of struct pcpu members removal and dependency by cpumask_t retirement.

Use the ABI-mandated thread pointer register (r2 for ppc32, r13 for ppc64) instead of a PCPU field for curthread. This averts a race on SMP systems with a high interrupt rate where the thread looking up the value of curthread could be preempted and migrated between obtaining the PCPU pointer and reading the value of pc_curthread, resulting in curthread being observed to be the current thread on the thread's original CPU. This played merry havoc with the system, in particular with mutexes. Many thanks to jhb for helping me work this one out.
Note that Book-E is in principle susceptible to the same problem, but has not been modified yet due to lack of Book-E hardware.

etire the cpumask_t type and replace it with cpuset_t usage.
This is intended to fix the bug where cpu mask objects are capped to 32. MAXCPU, then, can now arbitrarely bumped to whatever value. Anyway, as long as several structures in the kernel are statically allocated and sized as MAXCPU, it is suggested to keep it as low as possible for the time being.
Technical notes on this commit itself: - More functions to handle with cpuset_t objects are introduced. The most notable are cpusetobj_ffs() (which calculates a ffs(3) for a cpuset_t object), cpusetobj_strprint() (which prepares a string representing a cpuset_t object) and cpusetobj_strscan() (which creates a valid cpuset_t starting from a string representation). - pc_cpumask and pc_other_cpus are target to be removed soon. With the moving from cpumask_t to cpuset_t they are now inefficient and not really useful. Anyway, for the time being, please note that access to pcpu datas is protected by sched_pin() in order to avoid migrating the CPU while reading more than one (possible) word - Please note that size of cpuset_t objects may differ between kernel and userland. While this is not directly related to the patch itself, it is good to understand that concept and possibly use the patch as a reference on how to deal with cpuset_t objects in userland, when accessing kernland members. - KTR_CPUMASK is changed and now is represented through a string, to be set as the example reported in NOTES.
Please additively note that no MAXCPU is bumped in this patch, but private testing has been done until to MAXCPU=128 on a real 8x8x2(htt) machine (amd64).
Please note that the FreeBSD version is not yet bumped because of the upcoming pcpu changes. However, note that this patch is not targeted for MFC.

On multi-core, multi-threaded PPC systems, it is important that the threads be brought up in the order they are enumerated in the device tree (in particular, that thread 0 on each core be brought up first). The SLIST through which we loop to start the CPUs has all of its entries added with SLIST_INSERT_HEAD(), which means it is in reverse order of enumeration and so AP startup would always fail in such situations (causing a machine check or RTAS failure). Fix this by changing the SLIST into an STAILQ, and inserting new CPUs at the end.

Better support different kernel hand-offs. When loaded directly from U-Boot, the kernel is passed a standard argc/argv pair. The Juniper loader passes the metadata pointer as the second argument and passes 0 in the first. The FreeBSD loader passes the metadata pointer in the first argument.
As such, have locore preserve the first 2 arguments in registers r30 & r31. Change e500_init() to accept these arguments. Don't pass global offsets (i.e. kernel_text and _end) as arguments to e500_init(). We can reference those directly.
Rename e500_init() to booke_init() now that we're changing the prototype.
In booke_init(), "decode" arg1 and arg2 to obtain the metadata pointer correctly. For the U-Boot case, clear SBSS and BSS and bank on having a static FDT for now. This allows loading the ELF kernel and jumping to the entry point without trampoline.

o The P1020(E) & P2020(E) also have two cores. This conditional has a tendency to grow unwieldy so we may want to revisit this in due time. o Simplify the CPU reset function by writing to the reset control register irrespective of whether the CPU has one and automatically falling back to the debug control register if we didn't reset the CPU. The side-effect is that we now properly reset future processors without first having to add the system version to the list.

For architectures not using direct map , and requiring real KVA page for sf buf allocation, use wakeup() instead of wakeup_one() to notify sf buffer waiters about free buffer.
sf_buf_alloc() calls msleep(PCATCH) when SFB_CATCH flag was given, and for simultaneous wakeup and signal delivery, msleep() returns EINTR/ERESTART despite the thread was selected for wakeup_one(). As result, we loose a wakeup, and some other waiter will not be woken up.

Adjust the order of operations in spinlock_enter() and spinlock_exit() to work properly with single-stepping in a kernel debugger. Specifically, these routines have always disabled interrupts before increasing the nesting count and restored the prior state of interrupts after decreasing the nesting count to avoid problems with a nested interrupt not disabling interrupts when acquiring a spin lock. However, trap interrupts for single-stepping can still occur even when interrupts are disabled. Now the saved state of interrupts is not saved in the thread until after interrupts have been disabled and the nesting count has been increased. Similarly, the saved state from the thread cannot be read once the nesting count has been decreased to zero. To fix this, use temporary variables to store interrupt state and shuffle it between the thread's MD area and the appropriate registers.

Refactor timer management code with priority to one-shot operation mode. The main goal of this is to generate timer interrupts only when there is some work to do. When CPU is busy interrupts are generating at full rate of hz + stathz to fullfill scheduler and timekeeping requirements. But when CPU is idle, only minimum set of interrupts (down to 8 interrupts per second per CPU now), needed to handle scheduled callouts is executed. This allows significantly increase idle CPU sleep time, increasing effect of static power-saving technologies. Also it should reduce host CPU load on virtualized systems, when guest system is idle.
There is set of tunables, also available as writable sysctls, allowing to control wanted event timer subsystem behavior: kern.eventtimer.timer - allows to choose event timer hardware to use. On x86 there is up to 4 different kinds of timers. Depending on whether chosen timer is per-CPU, behavior of other options slightly differs. kern.eventtimer.periodic - allows to choose periodic and one-shot operation mode. In periodic mode, current timer hardware taken as the only source of time for time events. This mode is quite alike to previous kernel behavior. One-shot mode instead uses currently selected time counter hardware to schedule all needed events one by one and program timer to generate interrupt exactly in specified time. Default value depends of chosen timer capabilities, but one-shot mode is preferred, until other is forced by user or hardware. kern.eventtimer.singlemul - in periodic mode specifies how much times higher timer frequency should be, to not strictly alias hardclock() and statclock() events. Default values are 2 and 4, but could be reduced to 1 if extra interrupts are unwanted. kern.eventtimer.idletick - makes each CPU to receive every timer interrupt independently of whether they busy or not. By default this options is disabled. If chosen timer is per-CPU and runs in periodic mode, this option has no effect - all interrupts are generating.
As soon as this patch modifies cpu_idle() on some platforms, I have also refactored one on x86. Now it makes use of MONITOR/MWAIT instrunctions (if supported) under high sleep/wakeup rate, as fast alternative to other methods. It allows SMP scheduler to wake up sleeping CPUs much faster without using IPI, significantly increasing performance on some highly task-switching loads.

Reorganize syscall entry and leave handling.
Extend struct sysvec with three new elements: sv_fetch_syscall_args - the method to fetch syscall arguments from usermode into struct syscall_args. The structure is machine-depended (this might be reconsidered after all architectures are converted). sv_set_syscall_retval - the method to set a return value for usermode from the syscall. It is a generalization of cpu_set_syscall_retval(9) to allow ABIs to override the way to set a return value. sv_syscallnames - the table of syscall names.
Use sv_set_syscall_retval in kern_sigsuspend() instead of hardcoding the call to cpu_set_syscall_retval().
The new functions syscallenter(9) and syscallret(9) are provided that use sv_*syscall* pointers and contain the common repeated code from the syscall() implementations for the architecture-specific syscall trap handlers.
Syscallenter() fetches arguments, calls syscall implementation from ABI sysent table, and set up return frame. The end of syscall bookkeeping is done by syscallret().
Take advantage of single place for MI syscall handling code and implement ptrace_lwpinfo pl_flags PL_FLAG_SCE, PL_FLAG_SCX and PL_FLAG_EXEC. The SCE and SCX flags notify the debugger that the thread is stopped at syscall entry or return point respectively. The EXEC flag augments SCX and notifies debugger that the process address space was changed by one of exec(2)-family syscalls.
The i386, amd64, sparc64, sun4v, powerpc and ia64 syscall()s are changed to use syscallenter()/syscallret(). MIPS and arm are not converted and use the mostly unchanged syscall() implementation.

On entry to pmap_enter(), assert that the page is busy. While I'm here, make the style of assertion used by pmap_enter() consistent across all architectures.
On entry to pmap_remove_write(), assert that the page is neither unmanaged nor fictitious, since we cannot remove write access to either kind of page.
With the push down of the page queues lock, pmap_remove_write() cannot condition its behavior on the state of the PG_WRITEABLE flag if the page is busy. Assert that the object containing the page is locked. This allows us to know that the page will neither become busy nor will PG_WRITEABLE be set on it while pmap_remove_write() is running.
Correct a long-standing bug in vm_page_cowsetup(). We cannot possibly do copy-on-write-based zero-copy transmit on unmanaged or fictitious pages, so don't even try. Previously, the call to pmap_remove_write() would have failed silently.

On Alan's advice, rather than do a wholesale conversion on a single architecture from page queue lock to a hashed array of page locks (based on a patch by Jeff Roberson), I've implemented page lock support in the MI code and have only moved vm_page's hold_count out from under page queue mutex to page lock. This changes pmap_extract_and_hold on all pmaps.

Resurrect pmap_is_referenced() and use it in mincore(). Essentially, pmap_ts_referenced() is not always appropriate for checking whether or not pages have been referenced because it clears any reference bits that it encounters. For example, in mincore(), clearing the reference bits has two negative consequences. First, it throws off the activity count calculations performed by the page daemon. Specifically, a page on which mincore() has called pmap_ts_referenced() looks less active to the page daemon than it should. Consequently, the page could be deactivated prematurely by the page daemon. Arguably, this problem could be fixed by having mincore() duplicate the activity count calculation on the page. However, there is a second problem for which that is not a solution. In order to clear a reference on a 4KB page, it may be necessary to demote a 2/4MB page mapping. Thus, a mincore() by one process can have the side effect of demoting a superpage mapping within another process!

o Introduce vm_sync_icache() for making the I-cache coherent with the memory or D-cache, depending on the semantics of the platform. vm_sync_icache() is basically a wrapper around pmap_sync_icache(), that translates the vm_map_t argumument to pmap_t. o Introduce pmap_sync_icache() to all PMAP implementation. For powerpc it replaces the pmap_page_executable() function, added to solve the I-cache problem in uiomove_fromphys(). o In proc_rwmem() call vm_sync_icache() when writing to a page that has execute permissions. This assures that when breakpoints are written, the I-cache will be coherent and the process will actually hit the breakpoint. o This also fixes the Book-E PMAP implementation that was missing necessary locking while trying to deal with the I-cache coherency in pmap_enter() (read: mmu_booke_enter_locked).
The key property of this change is that the I-cache is made coherent *after* writes have been done. Doing it in the PMAP layer when adding or changing a mapping means that the I-cache is made coherent *before* any writes happen. The difference is key when the I-cache prefetches.

Add cpu_flush_dcache() for use after non-DMA based I/O so that a possible future I-cache coherency operation can succeed. On ARM for example the L1 cache can be (is) virtually mapped, which means that any I/O that uses temporary mappings will not see the I-cache made coherent. On ia64 a similar behaviour has been observed. By flushing the D-cache, execution of binaries backed by md(4) and/or NFS work reliably. For Book-E (powerpc), execution over NFS exhibits SIGILL once in a while as well, though cpu_flush_dcache() hasn't been implemented yet.
Doing an explicit D-cache flush as part of the non-DMA based I/O read operation eliminates the need to do it as part of the I-cache coherency operation itself and as such avoids pessimizing the DMA-based I/O read operations for which D-cache are already flushed/invalidated. It also allows future optimizations whereby the bcopy() followed by the D-cache flush can be integrated in a single operation, which could be implemented using on-chips DMA engines, by-passing the D-cache altogether.

Make Book-E debug register state part of the PCB context.
Previously, DBCR0 flags were set "globally", but this leads to problems because Book-E fine grained debug settings work only in conjuction with the debug master enable bit in MSR: in scenarios when the DBCR0 was set with intention to debug one process, but another one with MSR[DE] set got scheduled, the latter would immediately cause debug exceptions to occur upon execution of its own code instructions (and not the one intended for debugging).
To avoid such problems and properly handle debugging context, DBCR0 state should be managed individually per process.

Now that all platforms use genclock, shuffle things around slightly for better structure.
Much of this is related to <sys/clock.h>, which should really have been called <sys/calendar.h>, but unless and until we need the name, the repocopy can wait.
In general the kernel does not know about minutes, hours, days, timezones, daylight savings time, leap-years and such. All that is theoretically a matter for userland only.
Parts of kernel code does however care: badly designed filesystems store timestamps in local time and RTC chips almost universally track time in a YY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format, and sometimes in local timezone instead of UTC. For this we have <sys/clock.h>
<sys/time.h> on the other hand, deals with time_t, timeval, timespec and so on. These know only seconds and fractions thereof.
Move inittodr() and resettodr() prototypes to <sys/time.h>. Retain the names as it is one of the few surviving PDP/VAX references.
Move startrtclock() to <machine/clock.h> on relevant platforms, it is a MD call between machdep.c/clock.c. Remove references to it elsewhere.
Remove a lot of unnecessary <sys/clock.h> includes.

The "free-lance" timer in the i8254 is only used for the speaker these days, so de-generalize the acquire_timer/release_timer api to just deal with speakers.
The new (optional) MD functions are: timer_spkr_acquire() timer_spkr_release() and timer_spkr_setfreq()
the last of which configures the timer to generate a tone of a given frequency, in Hz instead of 1/1193182th of seconds.
Drop entirely timer2 on pc98, it is not used anywhere at all.
Move sysbeep() to kern/tty_cons.c and use the timer_spkr*() if they exist, and do nothing otherwise.
Remove prototypes and empty acquire-/release-timer() and sysbeep() functions from the non-beeping archs.
This eliminate the need for the speaker driver to know about i8254frequency at all. In theory this makes the speaker driver MI, contingent on the timer_spkr_*() functions existing but the driver does not know this yet and still attaches to the ISA bus.
Syscons is more tricky, in one function, sc_tone(), it knows the hz and things are just fine.
In the other function, sc_bell() it seems to get the period from the KDMKTONE ioctl in terms if 1/1193182th second, so we hardcode the 1193182 and leave it at that. It's probably not important.
Change a few other sysbeep() uses which obviously knew that the argument was in terms of i8254 frequency, and leave alone those that look like people thought sysbeep() took frequency in hertz.
This eliminates the knowledge of i8254_freq from all but the actual clock.c code and the prof_machdep.c on amd64 and i386, where I think it would be smart to ask for help from the timecounters anyway [TBD].

In keeping with style(9)'s recommendations on macros, use a ';' after each SYSINIT() macro invocation. This makes a number of lightweight C parsers much happier with the FreeBSD kernel source, including cflow's prcc and lxr.

Obtain TSEC h/w address from the parent bus (OCP) and not rely blindly on what might be currently programmed into the registers.
Underlying firmware (U-Boot) would typically program MAC address into the first unit only, and others are left uninitialized. It is now possible to retrieve and program MAC address for all units properly, provided they were passed on in the bootinfo metadata.

Remove kernel support for M:N threading.
While the KSE project was quite successful in bringing threading to FreeBSD, the M:N approach taken by the kse library was never developed to its full potential. Backwards compatibility will be provided via libmap.conf for dynamically linked binaries and static binaries will be broken.

Enable the D-cache and I-cache when not already enabled. It so happens that U-Boot disables the D-cache when booting an ELF image, so this change makes sure we run with the D-cache enabled from now on. It shows too...
While here, remove the duplicate definition of the hw.model sysctl.

Initial support for Freescale PowerQUICC III MPC85xx system-on-chip family.
The PQ3 is a high performance integrated communications processing system based on the e500 core, which is an embedded RISC processor that implements the 32-bit Book E definition of the PowerPC architecture. For details refer to: http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=MPC8555E
This port was tested and successfully run on the following members of the PQ3 family: MPC8533, MPC8541, MPC8548, MPC8555.
The following major integrated peripherals are supported:
* On-chip peripherals bus * OpenPIC interrupt controller * UART * Ethernet (TSEC) * Host/PCI bridge * QUICC engine (SCC functionality)
This commit brings the main functionality and will be followed by individual drivers that are logically separate from this base.
