the only architecture dependence of devether was enabling interrupts,
which is now done at the end of the driver's reset() function now.
the wifi stack and dummy ethersink also go to port/.
do the IRQ2->IRQ9 hack for pc kernels in intrenabale(), so not
every caller of intrenable() has to be aware of it.
introducing the PFPU structue which allows the machine specific
code some flexibility on how to handle the FPU process state.
for example, in the pc and pc64 kernel, the FPsave structure is
arround 512 bytes. with avx512, it could grow up to 2K. instead
of embedding that into the Proc strucutre, it is more effective
to allocate it on first use of the fpu, as most processes do not
use simd or floating point in the first place. also, the FPsave
structure has special 16 byte alignment constraint, which further
favours dynamic allocation.
this gets rid of the memmoves in pc/pc64 kernels for the aligment.
there is also devproc, which is now checking if the fpsave area
is actually valid before reading it, avoiding debuggers to see
garbage data.
the Notsave structure is gone now, as it was not used on any
machine.
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.
this provides basic console support using the ARC bios routines
theu uartarcs driver. and has native seeq ethernet driver which
was written by reading the 2ed devseq driver as i have no
documentation on the hardware. mmu and trap code is based on the
routerboard kernel.
