The frequencies are in MHz (i.e. a value of 1000 represents 1GHz). The
frequencies are rounded to the nearest whole MHz.
While here, rename and re-type bus_frequency, processor_frequency and
itc_frequency to bus_freq, cpu_freq and itc_freq and make them static.
As unsigned integers, the hw.freq.cpu sysctl can more easily be made
generic (across all architectures) making porting easier.
MFC after: 3 days
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].
o Remove alpha specific timer code (mc146818A) and compiled-out
calibration of said timer.
o Remove i386 inherited timer code (i8253) and related acquire and
release functions.
o Move sysbeep() from clock.c to machdep.c and have it return
ENODEV. Console beeps should be implemented using ACPI or if no
such device is described, using the sound driver.
o Move the sysctls related to adjkerntz, disable_rtc_set and
wall_cmos_clock from machdep.c to clock.c, where the variables
are.
o Don't hardcode a hz value of 1024 in cpu_initclocks() and don't
bother faking a stathz that's 1/8 of that. Keep it simple: hz
defaults to HZ and stathz equals hz. This is also how it's done
for sparc64.
o Keep a per-CPU ITC counter (pc_clock) and adjustment (pc_clockadj)
to calculate ITC skew and corrections. On average, we adjust the
ITC match register once every ~1500 interrupts for a duration of
2 consequtive interruprs. This is to correct the non-deterministic
behaviour of the ITC interrupt (there's a delay between the match
and the raising of the interrupt).
o Add 4 debugging sysctls to monitor clock behaviour. Those are
debug.clock_adjust_edges, debug.clock_adjust_excess,
debug.clock_adjust_lost and debug.clock_adjust_ticks. The first
counts the individual adjustment cycles (when the skew first
crosses the threshold), the second counts the number of times the
adjustment was excessive (any non-zero value is to be considered
a bug), the third counts lost clock interrupts and the last counts
the number of interrupts for which we applied an adjustment
(debug.clock_adjust_ticks / debug.clock_adjust_edges gives the
avarage duration of an individual adjustment -- should be ~2).
While here, remove some nearby (trivial) left-overs from alpha and
other cleanups.
CLOCK_VECTOR and define it as 254, not 255. Vector 255 is already
in use as the AP wakeup vector on the HP rx2600.
This needs to be made more dynamic. The likelyhood of vector 254
being in use is pretty small, but we already have code to assign
vectors to IPIs (see sal.c) and it's preobably better to have a
centralized "vector manager" that hands out vectors based on
some imput (like priority).
handleclock itself is trivial.
While here, replace (itc_frequency+hz/2)/hz with itm_reload for
consistency. There's now a single place where we determine the
ITM reload value.
not work on any real hardware (or fully work on any simulator). Much more
needs to happen before this is actually functional but its nice to see
the FreeBSD copyright message appear in the ia64 simulator.
