procs come from the dynamic pools, so we don't need
to remove the memory used by possible procs from the
total available.
|
|
Treallocate the small data structures around procs eagerly,
but use malloc to allocate the large proc data structures
when we need them, which allows us to scale to many more procs.
There are still many scalability bottlenecks, so we only crank
up the nproc limit by a little bit this time around, and crank
it up more as we optimize more.

replace machine specific userinit() by a portable
implemntation that uses kproc() to create the first
process. the initcode text is mapped using kmap(),
so there is no need for machine specific tmpmap()
functions.
initcode stack preparation should be done in init0()
where the stack is mapped and can be accessed directly.
replacing the machine specific userinit() allows some
big simplifications as sysrfork() and kproc() are now
the only callers of newproc() and we can avoid initializing
fields that we know are being initialized by these
callers.
rename autogenerated init.h and reboot.h headers.
the initcode[] and rebootcode[] blobs are now in *.i
files and hex generation was moved to portmkfile. the
machine specific mkfile only needs to specify how to
build rebootcode.out and initcode.out.

cpus on pc64
|
|
introduce cpushutdown() function that does the common
operation of initiating shutdown, returning once all
cpu's got the message and are about to shutdown. this
avoids duplicated code which isnt really machine specific.
automatic reboot on panic only when *debug= is not set
and the machine is a cpu server or has no display,
otherwise just hang.

there are no kernels currently that do page coloring,
so the only use of cachectl[] is flushing the icache
(on arm and ppc).
on pc64, cachectl consumes 32 bytes in each page resulting
in over 200 megabytes of overhead for 32gb of ram with 4K
pages.
this change removes cachectl[] and adds txtflush ulong
that is set to ~0 by pio() to instruct putmmu() to flush
the icache.
