Quick fix for calling DELAY() for ddb input in some (atkbd-based)
console drivers. ddb must not use any normal locks, but DELAY()
normally calls getit() which needs clock_lock. One problem with using
normal locks in ddb is that deadlock is possible, but deadlock on
clock_lock is unlikely becaluse clock_lock is bogusly recursive,
apparently just to hide the problem of ddb using it. The i8254 clock
hardware has mostly write-only registers so it is important for it to
use a lock that gives exclusive access. (atkbd hardware is also
unfriendly to reentrant software but that problem is more local and
already solved.) I mostly saw the symptoms of the bug caused by
unlocking in getit() running cpu_unpend(). cpu_unpend() should not
be called while in ddb and Debugger() calls for failing assertions
about this caused a breakpoint within ddb.
ddb must also not call getit() because ddb may be being used to step
through clock initialization code that has stopped or otherwise mangled
the clock. If the clock is stopped, then getit() always returns the
same value and DELAY() takes forever if it trusts getit().
The quick fix is implement DELAY(n) as (n * timer_freq / 1000000)
inb(0x84)'s if ddb is active.
machdep.c:
Don't permit recursion on clock_lock.
For the floppy driver, use fdcontrol to manipulate density selection.
For the CD drivers, the 'a' and 'c' suffix is without actual effect and
any applications insisting on it can be satisfied with a symlink:
ln -s /dev/cd0 /dev/cd0a
Ongoing discussion may result in these pieces of code being removed before
the 5-stable branch as opposed to after.
A timecounter will be selected when registered if its quality is
not negative and no less than the current timecounters.
Add a sysctl to report all available timecounters and their qualities.
Give the dummy timecounter a solid negative quality of minus a million.
Give the i8254 zero and the ACPI 1000.
The TSC gets 800, unless APM or SMP forces it negative.
Other timecounters default to zero quality and thereby retain current
selection behaviour.
- Move isa/ppc* to sys/dev/ppc (repo-copy)
- Add an attachment method to ppc for puc
- In puc we need to walk the chain of parents.
Still to do, is to make ppc(4) & puc(4) work on other platforms. Testers
wanted.

disabled.
- Change the apm driver to match the acpi driver's behavior by checking to
see if the device is disabled in the identify routine instead of in the
probe routine. This way if the device is disabled it is never created.
Note that a few places (ips(4), Alpha SMP) used "disable" instead of
"disabled" for their hint names, and these hints must be changed to
"disabled". If this is a big problem, resource_disabled() can always be
changed to honor both names.
Previously, any normal I/O on an fdc(4) device would fail with ENXIO
if the device had been opened in non-blocking mode and then closed
prior to the conventional access; that would last until the floppy
disk was ejected and re-inserted to raise the unit attention condition.
Add a clarifying comment.

There was at least one evil consequence of not doing so:
Some errors returned by fdstrategy() could be lost (EAGAIN,
in particular.)

where physical addresses larger than virtual addresses, such as i386s
with PAE.
- Use this to represent physical addresses in the MI vm system and in the
i386 pmap code. This also changes the paddr parameter to d_mmap_t.
- Fix printf formats to handle physical addresses >4G in the i386 memory
detection code, and due to kvtop returning vm_paddr_t instead of u_long.
Note that this is a name change only; vm_paddr_t is still the same as
vm_offset_t on all currently supported platforms.

Initialize struct cdevsw using C99 sparse initializtion and remove
all initializations to default values.
This patch is automatically generated and has been tested by compiling
LINT with all the fields in struct cdevsw in reverse order on alpha,
sparc64 and i386.

- Get rid of the useless atop() / pmap_phys_address() detour. The
device mmap handlers must now give back the physical address
without atop()'ing it.
- Don't borrow the physical address of the mapping in the returned
int. Now we properly pass a vm_offset_t * and expect it to be
filled by the mmap handler when the mapping was successful. The
mmap handler must now return 0 when successful, any other value
is considered as an error. Previously, returning -1 was the only
way to fail. This change thus accidentally fixes some devices
which were bogusly returning errno constants which would have been
considered as addresses by the device pager.
- Garbage collect the poorly named pmap_phys_address() now that it's
no longer used.
- Convert all the d_mmap_t consumers to the new API.
I'm still not sure wheter we need a __FreeBSD_version bump for this,
since and we didn't guarantee API/ABI stability until 5.1-RELEASE.

statclock based on profhz when profiling is enabled MD, since most platforms
don't use this anyway. This removes the need for statclock_process, whose
only purpose was to subdivide profhz, and gets the profiling clock running
outside of sched_lock on platforms that implement suswintr.
Also changed the interface for starting and stopping the profiling clock to
do just that, instead of changing the rate of statclock, since they can now
be separate.
