The SYSCTL_NODE macro defines a list that stores all child-elements of
that node. If there's no SYSCTL_DECL macro anywhere else, there's no
reason why it shouldn't be static.

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.

The code has definitely been broken for SCHED_ULE, which is a default
scheduler. It may have been broken for SCHED_4BSD in more subtle ways,
e.g. with manually configured CPU affinities and for interrupt devilery
purposes.
We still provide a way to disable individual CPUs or all hyperthreading
"twin" CPUs before SMP startup. See the UPDATING entry for details.
Interaction between building CPU topology and disabling CPUs still
remains fuzzy: topology is first built using all availble CPUs and then
the disabled CPUs should be "subtracted" from it. That doesn't work
well if the resulting topology becomes non-uniform.
This work is done in cooperation with Attilio Rao who in addition to
reviewing also provided parts of code.

This regression was introduced in r213323.
There are probably no Intel cpus that support amd64 mode, but do not
support cpuid level 4, but it's better to keep i386 and amd64 versions
of this code in sync.

cpuset_t objects.
That is going to offer the underlying support for a simple bump of
MAXCPU and then support for number of cpus > 32 (as it is today).
Right now, cpumask_t is an int, 32 bits on all our supported architecture.
cpumask_t on the other side is implemented as an array of longs, and
easilly extendible by definition.
The architectures touched by this commit are the following:
- amd64
- i386
- pc98
- arm
- ia64
- XEN
while the others are still missing.
Userland is believed to be fully converted with the changes contained
here.
Some technical notes:
- This commit may be considered an ABI nop for all the architectures
different from amd64 and ia64 (and sparc64 in the future)
- per-cpu members, which are now converted to cpuset_t, needs to be
accessed avoiding migration, because the size of cpuset_t should be
considered unknown
- size of cpuset_t objects is different from kernel and userland (this is
primirally done in order to leave some more space in userland to cope
with KBI extensions). If you need to access kernel cpuset_t from the
userland please refer to example in this patch on how to do that
correctly (kgdb may be a good source, for example).
- Support for other architectures is going to be added soon
- Only MAXCPU for amd64 is bumped now
The patch has been tested by sbruno and Nicholas Esborn on opteron
4 x 12 pack CPUs. More testing on big SMP is expected to came soon.
pluknet tested the patch with his 8-ways on both amd64 and i386.

This could lead to a division by zero if hardware is multi-core and/or
multi-threaded, but for some (quite unusual) reason FreeBSD sees only
one logical processor. This could happen, for example, if neither MADT
nor MP Table are presented by BIOS.
Also:
- assert in topo_probe_0x4 that BSP is accounted for
- neither cpu_cores nor cpu_logical should be zero after successful
probing, so either being zero is an indication of failed probing

This patch is significantly based on previous work by jkim.
List of changes:
- added comments that describe topology uniformity assumption
- added reference to Intel Processor Topology Enumeration article
- documented a few global variables that describe topology
- retired weirdly set and used logical_cpus variable
- changed fallback code for mp_ncpus > 0 case, so that CPUs are treated
as being different packages rather than cores in a single package
- moved AMD-specific code to topo_probe_amd [jkim]
- in topo_probe_0x4() follow Intel-prescribed procedure of deriving SMT
and core masks and match APIC IDs against those masks [started by
jkim]
- in topo_probe_0x4() drop code for double-checking topology parameters
by looking at L1 cache properties [jkim]
- in topo_probe_0xb() add fallback path to topo_probe_0x4() as
prescribed by Intel [jkim]
Still to do:
- prepare for upcoming AMD CPUs by using new mechanism of uniform
topology description [pointed by jkim]
- probe cache topology in addition to CPU topology and probably use that
for scheduler affinity topology; e.g. Core2 Duo and Athlon II X2 have
the same CPU topology, but Athlon cores do not share L2 cache while
Core2's do (no L3 cache in both cases)
- think of supporting non-uniform topologies if they are ever
implemented for platforms in question
- think how to better described old HTT vs new HTT distinction, HTT vs
SMT can be confusing as SMT is a generic term
- more robust code for marking CPUs as "logical" and/or "hyperthreaded",
use HTT mask instead of modulo operation
- correct support for halting logical and/or hyperthreaded CPUs, let
scheduler know that it shouldn't schedule any threads on those CPUs

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.

It is more appropriate in this context because TSC MSR is reset to zero

IPI to a specific CPU by its cpuid. Replace calls to ipi_selected() that
constructed a mask for a single CPU with calls to ipi_cpu() instead. This
will matter more in the future when we transition from cpumask_t to
cpuset_t for CPU masks in which case building a CPU mask is more expensive.

savectx() is only used for panic dump (dumppcb) and kdb (stoppcbs). Thus,
saving additional information does not hurt and it may be even beneficial.
Unfortunately, struct pcb has grown larger to accommodate more data.
Move 512-byte long pcb_user_save to the end of struct pcb while I am here.
- savectx() now saves FPU state unconditionally and copy it to the PCB of
FPU thread if necessary. This gives panic dump and kdb a chance to take
a look at the current FPU state even if the FPU is "supposedly" not used.
- Resuming CPU now unconditionally reinitializes FPU. If the saved FPU
state was irrelevant, it could be in an unknown state.

writing event timer drivers, for choosing best possible drivers by machine
independent code and for operating them to supply kernel with hardclock(),
statclock() and profclock() events in unified fashion on various hardware.
Infrastructure provides support for both per-CPU (independent for every CPU
core) and global timers in periodic and one-shot modes. MI management code
at this moment uses only periodic mode, but one-shot mode use planned for
later, as part of tickless kernel project.
For this moment infrastructure used on i386 and amd64 architectures. Other
archs are welcome to follow, while their current operation should not be
affected.
This patch updates existing drivers (i8254, RTC and LAPIC) for the new
order, and adds event timers support into the HPET driver. These drivers
have different capabilities:
LAPIC - per-CPU timer, supports periodic and one-shot operation, may
freeze in C3 state, calibrated on first use, so may be not exactly precise.
HPET - depending on hardware can work as per-CPU or global, supports
periodic and one-shot operation, usually provides several event timers.
i8254 - global, limited to periodic mode, because same hardware used also
as time counter.
RTC - global, supports only periodic mode, set of frequencies in Hz
limited by powers of 2.
Depending on hardware capabilities, drivers preferred in following orders,
either LAPIC, HPETs, i8254, RTC or HPETs, LAPIC, i8254, RTC.
User may explicitly specify wanted timers via loader tunables or sysctls:
kern.eventtimer.timer1 and kern.eventtimer.timer2.
If requested driver is unavailable or unoperational, system will try to
replace it. If no more timers available or "NONE" specified for second,
system will operate using only one timer, multiplying it's frequency by few
times and uing respective dividers to honor hz, stathz and profhz values,
set during initial setup.

has proven to have a good effect when entering KDB by using a NMI,
but it completely violates all the good rules about interrupts
disabled while holding a spinlock in other occasions. This can be the
cause of deadlocks on events where a normal IPI_STOP is expected.
* Adds an new IPI called IPI_STOP_HARD on all the supported architectures.
This IPI is responsible for sending a stop message among CPUs using a
privileged channel when disponible. In other cases it just does match a
normal IPI_STOP.
Right now the IPI_STOP_HARD functionality uses a NMI on ia32 and amd64
architectures, while on the other has a normal IPI_STOP effect. It is
responsibility of maintainers to eventually implement an hard stop
when necessary and possible.
* Use the new IPI facility in order to implement a new userend SMP kernel
function called stop_cpus_hard(). That is specular to stop_cpu() but
it does use the privileged channel for the stopping facility.
* Let KDB use the newly introduced function stop_cpus_hard() and leave
stop_cpus() for all the other cases
* Disable interrupts on CPU0 when starting the process of APs suspension.
* Style cleanup and comments adding

- Modules and kernel code alike may use DPCPU_DEFINE(),
DPCPU_GET(), DPCPU_SET(), etc. akin to the statically defined
PCPU_*. Requires only one extra instruction more than PCPU_* and is
virtually the same as __thread for builtin and much faster for shared
objects. DPCPU variables can be initialized when defined.
- Modules are supported by relocating the module's per-cpu linker set
over space reserved in the kernel. Modules may fail to load if there
is insufficient space available.
- Track space available for modules with a one-off extent allocator.
Free may block for memory to allocate space for an extent.

With the arrival of 128+ cores it is necessary to handle more than that.
One of the first thing to change is the support for cpumask_t that needs
to handle more than 32 bits masking (which happens now). Some places,
however, still assume that cpumask_t is a 32 bits mask.
Fix that situation by using always correctly cpumask_t when needed.
While here, remove the part under STOP_NMI for the Xen support as it
is broken in any case.
Additively make ipi_nmi_pending as static.

- For CPUs that only support MCE (the machine check exception) but not MCA
(i.e. Pentium), all this does is print out the value of the machine check
registers and then panic when a machine check exception occurs.
- For CPUs that support MCA (the machine check architecture), the support is
a bit more involved.
- First, there is limited support for decoding the CPU-independent MCA
error codes in the kernel, and the kernel uses this to output a short
description of any machine check events that occur.
- When a machine check exception occurs, all of the MCx banks on the
current CPU are scanned and any events are reported to the console
before panic'ing.
- To catch events for correctable errors, a periodic timer kicks off a
task which scans the MCx banks on all CPUs. The frequency of these
checks is controlled via the "hw.mca.interval" sysctl.
- Userland can request an immediate scan of the MCx banks by writing
a non-zero value to "hw.mca.force_scan".
- If any correctable events are encountered, the appropriate details
are stored in a 'struct mca_record' (defined in <machine/mca.h>).
The "hw.mca.count" is a count of such records and each record may
be queried via the "hw.mca.records" tree by specifying the record
index (0 .. count - 1) as the next name in the MIB similar to using
PIDs with the kern.proc.* sysctls. The idea is to export machine
check events to userland for more detailed processing.
- The periodic timer and hw.mca sysctls are only present if the CPU
supports MCA.
