spdx: The BSD-2-Clause-FreeBSD identifier is obsolete, drop -FreeBSD

The SPDX folks have obsoleted the BSD-2-Clause-FreeBSD identifier. Catch
up to that fact and revert to their recommended match of BSD-2-Clause.

# 5c2967f6 29-Nov-2020 Michal Meloun <mmel@FreeBSD.org>

Remove the pre-ARMv6 and pre-INTRNG code.
ARM has required ARMV6+ and INTRNg for some time now, so remove
always false #ifdefs and unconditionally do always true #ifdefs.

sys/arm: further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.


# a66dc0c5 25-May-2016 Ian Lepore <ian@FreeBSD.org>

Include machine/acle-compat.h in cdefs.h on arm if the compiler doesn't
have ACLE support built in. The ACLE (ARM C Language Extensions) defines
a set of standardized symbols which indicate the architecture version and
features available. ACLE support is built in to modern compilers (both
clang and gcc), but absent from gcc prior to 4.4.

ARM (the company) provides the acle-compat.h header file to define the
right symbols for older versions of gcc. Basically, acle-compat.h does
for arm about the same thing cdefs.h does for freebsd: defines
standardized macros that work no matter which compiler you use. If ARM
hadn't provided this file we would have ended up with a big #ifdef __arm__
section in cdefs.h with our own compatibility shims.

Remove #include <machine/acle-compat.h> from the zillion other places (an
ever-growing list) that it appears. Since style(9) requires sys/types.h
or sys/param.h early in the include list, and both of those lead to
including cdefs.h, only a couple special cases still need to include
acle-compat.h directly.

# 41a7c569 29-Jan-2016 Michal Meloun <mmel@FreeBSD.org>

ARM: remove old pmap-v6 code. The new pmap-v6 is mature enough, and
dual implementation is showstopper for major cleanup.

This patch only removes old code from tree. Cleanups will follow asap.


# b09e6b5c 24-Nov-2015 Svatopluk Kraus <skra@FreeBSD.org>

Flush all kernel mappings from TLB(s) in time when they are cleared.
Replace tlb_flush_local() by tlb_flush() as even not global mappings
could be fetched to TLB(s) on other cores by speculative table walk.

From OS point of view, it was not a problem as either such mappings
were not used anymore or they were flushed from TLB(s) when reused.
However, from hardware point of view, it was a problem. Not flushed
mappings could be a target for speculative reads or prefetches (which
might be quite aggresive on ARM cores). As speculative read can fill
cacheline, it can cause a real problem, when physical page is reused,
but mapped with different memory attributes.

Anyhow, it's good to have only valid mappings in TLB(s).

# 84233ddb 26-Mar-2015 Ian Lepore <ian@FreeBSD.org>

New pmap code for armv6. Disabled by default, option ARM_NEW_PMAP enables it.

This is pretty much a complete rewrite based on the existing i386 code. The
patches have been circulating for a couple years and have been looked at by
plenty of people, but I'm not putting anybody on the hook as having reviewed
this in any formal sense except myself.

After this has gotten wider testing from the user community, ARM_NEW_PMAP
will become the default and various dregs of the old pmap code will be
removed.

# c8d2ffd6 05-Aug-2014 Gleb Smirnoff <glebius@FreeBSD.org>

Merge all MD sf_buf allocators into one MI, residing in kern/subr_sfbuf.c
The MD allocators were very common, however there were some minor
differencies. These differencies were all consolidated in the MI allocator,
under ifdefs. The defines from machine/vmparam.h turn on features required
for a particular machine. For details look in the comment in sys/sf_buf.h.

As result no MD code left in sys/*/*/vm_machdep.c. Some arches still have
machine/sf_buf.h, which is usually quite small.

# 007aeece 08-Feb-2014 Ian Lepore <ian@FreeBSD.org>

Remove the ARM_USE_SMALL_ALLOC option and code related to it.

This was an optimization used only by a few xscale platforms. Part of
the optimization was to create a direct map for all physical pages, and
that resulted in making multiple mappings of pages in a way that bypassed
the logic in pmap.c to handle VIVT cache aliasing. It also just generally
made the code more complex and hard to maintain for all SoCs.

# 49953e11 08-Aug-2006 Olivier Houchard <cognet@FreeBSD.org>

Rewrite ARM_USE_SMALL_ALLOC so that instead of the current behavior, it maps
whole the physical memory, cached, using 1MB section mappings. This reduces
the address space available for user processes a bit, but given the amount of
memory a typical arm machine has, it is not (yet) a big issue.
It then provides a uma_small_alloc() that works as it does for architectures
which have a direct mapping.


# 6fc729af 14-May-2004 Olivier Houchard <cognet@FreeBSD.org>

Import FreeBSD/arm kernel bits.
It only supports sa1110 (on simics) right now, but xscale support should come
soon.
