I have not removed the /*ARGSUSED*/, they will require some looking at.

Fixed magic and wrong numbers in calibration of nullfunc_loop_profiled()
and removed related debugging code. Now this part of the calibration is
almost as machine-independent as gprof generally.

overheads. The old method counted too much time against leaf
functions.

Improved non-statistical (GUPROF) profiling:
- use a more accurate and more efficient method of compensating for
overheads. The old method counted too much time against leaf
functions.
- normally use the Pentium timestamp counter if available.
On Pentiums, the times are now accurate to within a couple of cpu
clock cycles per function call in the (unlikely) event that there
are no cache misses in or caused by the profiling code.
- optionally use an arbitrary Pentium event counter if available.
- optionally regress to using the i8254 counter.
- scaled the i8254 counter by a factor of 128. Now the i8254 counters
overflow slightly faster than the TSC counters for a 150MHz Pentium :-)
(after about 16 seconds). This is to avoid fractional overheads.

files.i386:
permon.c temporarily has to be classified as a profiling-routine
because a couple of functions in it may be called from profiling code.

options.i386:
- I586_CTR_GUPROF is currently unused (oops).
- I586_PMC_GUPROF should be something like 0x70000 to enable (but not
use unless prof_machdep.c is changed) support for Pentium event
counters. 7 is a control mode and the counter number 0 is somewhere
in the 0000 bits (see perfmon.h for the encoding).

profile.h:
- added declarations.
- cleaned up separation of user mode declarations.

prof_machdep.c:
Mostly clock-select changes. The default clock can be changed by
editing kmem. There should be a sysctl for this.

subr_prof.c:
- added copyright.
- calibrate overheads for the new method.
- documented new method.
- fixed races and and machine dependencies in start/stop code.

mcount.c:
Use the new overhead compensation method.

gmon.h:
- changed GPROF4 counter type from unsigned to int. Oops, this should
be machine-dependent and/or int32_t.
- reorganized overhead counters.

Implemented non-statistical kernel profiling. This is based on
looking at a high resolution clock for each of the following events:
function call, function return, interrupt entry, interrupt exit,
and interesting branches. The differences between the times of
these events are added at appropriate places in a ordinary histogram
(as if very fast statistical profiling sampled the pc at those
places) so that ordinary gprof can be used to analyze the times.

gmon.h:
Histogram counters need to be 4 bytes for microsecond resolutions.
They will need to be larger for the 586 clock.
The comments were vax-centric and wrong even on vaxes. Does anyone
disagree?

gprof4.c:
The standard gprof should support counters of all integral sizes
and the size of the counter should be in the gmon header. This
hack will do until then. (Use gprof4 -u to examine the results
of non-statistical profiling.)

config/*:
Non-statistical profiling is configured with `config -pp'.
`config -p' still gives ordinary profiling.

kgmon/*:
Non-statistical profiling is enabled with `kgmon -B'. `kgmon -b'
still enables ordinary profiling (and distables non-statistical
profiling) if non-statistical profiling is configured.

Unstaticized addupc_task(). It is supposed to be called from trap().
See the comments for addupc_intr() and the NetBSD implementation.
We use dummy versions of fuswintr() and susiwintr(), so addupc_intr()
always pushes the work to trap() (this is inefficient), and trap()
calls the special i386 function addupc() instead of addupc_task().
addupc() is more efficient than addupc_intr(), so some of the lost
efficiency is recovered. However, addupc() may be broken on plain
i386's since it doesn't check for write permission like copyout().

Ifdefed duplicated decentralized declarations of args structs. It's
convenient to have this visible but they are hard to maintain. Some
are already different from the central declarations. 4.4lite2 puts
them in comments in the function headers but I wanted to avoid the
large changes for that.

This is a composite of 3 patch sets submitted by terry.
they are:
New low-level init code that supports loadbal modules better
some cleanups in the namei code to help terry in 16-bit character support
some changes to the mount-root code to make it a little more
modular..

NOTE: mounting root off cdrom or NFS MIGHT be broken as I haven't been able
to test those cases..

certainly mounting root of disk still works just fine..
mfs should work but is untested. (tomorrows task)

The low level init stuff includes a total rewrite of init_main.c
to make it possible for new modules to have an init phase by simply
adding an entry to a TEXT_SET (or is it DATA_SET) list. thus a new module can
be added to the kernel without editing any other files other than the
'files' file.
