Update d_mmap() to accept vm_ooffset_t and vm_memattr_t.

This replaces d_mmap() with the d_mmap2() implementation and also
changes the type of offset to vm_ooffset_t.

Purge d_mmap2().

All driver modules will need to be rebuilt since D_VERSION is also

# 183397 27-Sep-2008 ed

Replace all calls to minor() with dev2unit().

After I removed all the unit2minor()/minor2unit() calls from the kernel
yesterday, I realised calling minor() everywhere is quite confusing.
Character devices now only have the ability to store a unit number, not
a minor number. Remove the confusion by using dev2unit() everywhere.

This commit could also be considered as a bug fix. A lot of drivers call
minor(), while they should actually be calling dev2unit(). In -CURRENT
this isn't a problem, but it turns out we never had any problem reports
related to that issue in the past. I suspect not many people connect
more than 256 pieces of the same hardware.

Break out the MI part of the /dev/[k]mem and /dev/io drivers into
their own directory and module, leaving the MD parts in the MD
area (the MD parts _are_ part of the modules). /dev/mem and /dev/io
are now loadable modules, thus taking us one step further towards
a kernel created entirely out of modules. Of course, there is nothing
preventing the kernel from having these statically compiled.

- Add vm_paddr_t, a physical address type. This is required for systems
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.

vm_offset_t on all currently supported platforms.

# 111462 25-Feb-2003 mux

Cleanup of the d_mmap_t interface.

- 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.

# 93593 01-Apr-2002 jhb

Change the suser() API to take advantage of td_ucred as well as do a
general cleanup of the API. The entire API now consists of two functions
similar to the pre-KSE API. The suser() function takes a thread pointer
as its only argument. The td_ucred member of this thread must be valid
so the only valid thread pointers are curthread and a few kernel threads
such as thread0. The suser_cred() function takes a pointer to a struct
ucred as its first argument and an integer flag as its second argument.
The flag is currently only used for the PRISON_ROOT flag.

With Alfred's permission, remove vm_mtx in favor of a fine-grained approach

formalize the removal of Giant, making it easy to test in a more piecemeal

pmap_enter() masked off the page offset bits, pmap_kenter() did not.
This (I believe) is the cause of the XFree86 startup and/or mptable(8)

offsets. The offsets were being converted into random page flags in the
page tables. :-( (including PG_PS = 4MB page size)

# 60755 21-May-2000 peter

Implement an optimization of the VM<->pmap API. Pass vm_page_t's directly
to various pmap_*() functions instead of looking up the physical address
and passing that. In many cases, the first thing the pmap code was doing
was going to a lot of trouble to get back the original vm_page_t, or
it's shadow pv_table entry.

Inspired by: John Dyson's 1998 patches.

Also:
Eliminate pv_table as a seperate thing and build it into a machine
dependent part of vm_page_t. This eliminates having a seperate set of
structions that shadow each other in a 1:1 fashion that we often went to
a lot of trouble to translate from one to the other. (see above)
This happens to save 4 bytes of physical memory for each page in the
system. (8 bytes on the Alpha).

Eliminate the use of the phys_avail[] array to determine if a page is
managed (ie: it has pv_entries etc). Store this information in a flag.
Things like device_pager set it because they create vm_page_t's on the
fly that do not have pv_entries. This makes it easier to "unmanage" a
page of physical memory (this will be taken advantage of in subsequent
commits).

Add a function to add a new page to the freelist. This could be used
for reclaiming the previously wasted pages left over from preloaded
loader(8) files.

# 47028 11-May-1999 phk

Divorce "dev_t" from the "major|minor" bitmap, which is now called
udev_t in the kernel but still called dev_t in userland.

Provide functions to manipulate both types:
major() umajor()
minor() uminor()
makedev() umakedev()
dev2udev() udev2dev()

For now they're functions, they will become in-line functions
after one of the next two steps in this process.

Return major/minor/makedev to macro-hood for userland.

Register a name in cdevsw[] for the "filedescriptor" driver.

In the kernel the udev_t appears in places where we have the
major/minor number combination, (ie: a potential device: we
may not have the driver nor the device), like in inodes, vattr,
cdevsw registration and so on, whereas the dev_t appears where
we carry around a reference to a actual device.

In the future the cdevsw and the aliased-from vnode will be hung
directly from the dev_t, along with up to two softc pointers for
the device driver and a few houskeeping bits. This will essentially
replace the current "alias" check code (same buck, bigger bang).

A little stunt has been provided to try to catch places where the
wrong type is being used (dev_t vs udev_t), if you see something
not working, #undef DEVT_FASCIST in kern/kern_conf.c and see if
it makes a difference. If it does, please try to track it down
(many hands make light work) or at least try to reproduce it
as simply as possible, and describe how to do that.

Without DEVT_FASCIST I belive this patch is a no-op.

Stylistic/posixoid comments about the userland view of the <sys/*.h>
files welcome now, from userland they now contain the end result.

Next planned step: make all dev_t's refer to the same devsw[] which
means convert BLK's to CHR's at the perimeter of the vnodes and
other places where they enter the game (bootdev, mknod, sysctl).

without the appropriate Lite/2 userland changes.

The system boots and can mount UFS filesystems.

Untested: ext2fs, msdosfs, NFS
Known problems: Incorrect Berkeley ID strings in some files.
Mount_std mounts will not work until the getfsent
library routine is changed.

Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.

I've been meaning to commit this for months. Implement select()
for /dev/random and /dev/urandom. Both are always writable, urandom is
always readable, and /dev/random is readable when >= 8 bits are in the
pool.


# 17178 15-Jul-1996 nate

Moved declaration of zbuf outside of #ifdef DEVFS code.


# 17174 15-Jul-1996 bde

Quick fix for previous commit: don't free zbuf on close since it may be
in use in another process that blocked in uiomove().

Almost gratuitious improvement of the performance of reading

First pass at cleaning up macros relating to pages, clusters and all that.

Fixed the ownership and permissions of /dev/io. Rev.1.32 broke rev.1.29.


# 14988 01-Apr-1996 scrappy

Convert from using devfs_add_devsw() to devfs_add_devswf()

Fixed group and permissions of /devfs/perfmon.


# 14825 26-Mar-1996 wollman

Add support for Pentium and Pentium Pro performance counters.
(This code is as yet untested; to come after man page is written.)
This also adds inlines to cpufunc.h for the RDTSC, RDMSR, WRMSR, and RDPMC
instructions. The user-mode interface is via a subdevice of mem.c;
there is also a kernel-size interface which might be used to aid
profiling.


# 13130 31-Dec-1995 joerg

Restrict /devfs/io perms to 0600.

Nobody in our regular source tree, or in the non-distfile part of the
ports tree does use /dev/io anyway, so this might be replaced by
another scenario some day.

# 12678 08-Dec-1995 phk

Julian forgot to make the *devsw structures static.


# 12675 08-Dec-1995 julian

Pass 3 of the great devsw changes
most devsw referenced functions are now static, as they are
in the same file as their devsw structure. I've also added DEVFS
support for nearly every device in the system, however
many of the devices have 'incorrect' names under DEVFS
because I couldn't quickly work out the correct naming conventions.
(but devfs won't be coming on line for a month or so anyhow so that doesn't
matter)

If you "OWN" a device which would normally have an entry in /dev
then search for the devfs_add_devsw() entries and munge to make them right..
check out similar devices to see what I might have done in them in you
can't see what's going on..
for a laugh compare conf.c conf.h defore and after... :)
I have not doen DEVFS entries for any DISKSLICE devices yet as that will be
a much more complicated job.. (pass 5 :)

pass 4 will be to make the devsw tables of type (cdevsw * )
rather than (cdevsw)
seems to work here..
complaints to the usual places.. :)

Untangled the vm.h include file spaghetti.


# 12521 29-Nov-1995 julian

If you're going to mechanically replicate something in 50 files
it's best to not have a (compiles cleanly) typo in it! (sigh)


# 12517 29-Nov-1995 julian

OK, that's it..
That's EVERY SINGLE driver that has an entry in conf.c..
my next trick will be to define cdevsw[] and bdevsw[]
as empty arrays and remove all those DAMNED defines as well..

Each of these drivers has a SYSINIT linker set entry
that comes in very early.. and asks teh driver to add it's own
entry to the two devsw[] tables.

some slight reworking of the commits from yesterday (added the SYSINIT
stuff and some usually wrong but token DEVFS entries to all these
devices.

BTW does anyone know where the 'ata' entries in conf.c actually reside?
seems we don't actually have a 'ataopen() etc...

If you want to add a new device in conf.c
please make sure I know
so I can keep it up to date too..

as before, this is all dependent on #if defined(JREMOD)
(and #ifdef DEVFS in parts)


# 12078 04-Nov-1995 markm

Remove the #ifdev DEVRANDOM's, as promised.

/dev/random is now a part of the kernel! you will need to make
the device in /dev: sh MAKEDEV random
and take a look at some test code in src/tools/test/random.


# 12072 04-Nov-1995 bde

Finished(?) moving prototypes for devswitch functions to <machine/conf.h>.
One was hidden in an ifdef.

Continued cleaning up not so new init stuff.

Removed some more /*ARGSUSED*/ for devswitch functions.


# 11946 30-Oct-1995 markm

Security fix - do not allow anyone but root to choose the interrupts used

(This is a change to the /dev/random ioctl()))


# 11919 29-Oct-1995 bde

Fix mmioctl() for !DEVRANDOM case. mmioctl() is a function, not a

# 10924 20-Sep-1995 dg

Fix rounding bug in last commit that would have caused the problem to not
be completely fixed.


# 10812 15-Sep-1995 dg

Check for page being resident when doing I/O with /dev/kmem and return
EFAULT if it is not resident. This prevents the system from manufacturing
a zero-fill page for unused but allocated areas of the kernel's VM. This
should fix the "CMAP busy" panic that some people saw during system
startup.


# 10653 09-Sep-1995 dg

compiler warnings.

Fix benign type mismatches in devsw functions. 82 out of 299 devsw
functions were wrong.


# 10537 03-Sep-1995 julian

devfs changes..
changes to allow devices that don't probe (e.g. /dev/mem)
to create devfs entries
this required giving 'configure' its own SYSINIT entry
so we could duck in just before it with a DEVFS init
and some device inits..
my devfs now looks like:
./misc
./misc/speaker
./misc/mem
./misc/kmem
./misc/null
./misc/zero
./misc/io
./misc/console
./misc/pcaudio
./misc/pcaudioctl
./disks
./disks/rfloppy
./disks/rfloppy/fd0.1440
./disks/rfloppy/fd1.1200
./disks/floppy
./disks/floppy/fd0.1440
./disks/floppy/fd1.1200
also some sligt cleanups.. DEVFS needs a lot of work
but I'm getting back to it..

# 879 18-Dec-1993 wollman

Make everything compile with -Wtraditional. Make it easier to distribute
a binary link-kit. Make all non-optional options (pagers, procfs) standard,
and update LINT to reflect new symtab requirements.

NB: -Wtraditional will henceforth be forgotten. This editing pass was
primarily intended to detect any constructions where the old code might
have been relying on traditional C semantics or syntax. These were all
fixed, and the result of fixing some of them means that -Wall is now a
realistic possibility within a few weeks.

# 259 09-Aug-1993 rgrimes

From guido@gvr.win.tue.nl Sat Aug 7 06:58:04 1993

I posted some patches on the 386bsd_patchkit list to prohibit io access.
Because of a noninitialised filed in the tss, this was possible.
It is included below as the patch to machdep.c
However, when you do this *necessary* fix (security), it will be
impossible form within user space to do io.

therefor, I included another fix: when you open /dev/io, you
get the access. Of course you can rewrite it to use another minor
and thus giving access to the iospace when /dev/mem is opened, e.g.

NOTE: The /dev/io entry has not been added to /dev/MAKEDEV yet.
The patch is in NetBSD.
