The Signal Processing Engine (SPE) found in Freescale e500 cores (and
others) offloads IEEE-754 compliance (NaN, Inf handling, overflow,
underflow) to software, most likely as a means of simplifying the APU
silicon. Some software, like AbiWord, needs full IEEE-754 compliance,
including NaN handling. Implement the necessary bits to enable it.

This reduces the CPU cycle wastage on power9, which is SMT4. Any idle
thread that's spinning is simply starving working threads on the same core
of valuable resources.
This can be reduced further by taking more advantage of the PSSCR supported
states, as well as permitting state loss, as is currently done for power8.
The currently implemented stop state is the lowest latency, which may still
consume resources.
Summary:
POWER9 systems use a new interrupt controller, XIVE, managed through OPAL
firmware calls. The OPAL firmware includes support for emulating the previous
generation XICS presentation layer in addition to a new "XIVE Exploitation"
mode. As a stopgap until we have XIVE exploitation mode, enable XICS emulation
mode so that we at least have an interrupt controller.
Since the CPPR is local to the current CPU, it cannot be updated for APs when
initializing on the BSP. This adds a new function, directly called by the
powernv platform code, to initialize the CPPR on AP bringup.

The POWER9 MMU (PowerISA 3.0) is slightly different from current
configurations, using a partition table even for hypervisor mode, and
dropping the SDR1 register. Key off the newly early-enabled CPU features
flags for the new architecture, and configure the MMU appropriately.
The POWER9 MMU ignores the "PSIZ" field in the PTCR, and expects a 64kB
table. As we are enabled for powernv (hypervisor mode, no VMs), only
initialize partition table entry 0, and zero out the rest. The actual
contents of the register are identical to SDR1 from previous architectures.
Along with this, fix a bug in the page table allocation with very large
memory. The table can be allocated on any 256k boundary. The
bootstrap_alloc alignment argument is an int, and with large amounts of
memory passing the size of the table as the alignment will overflow an
integer. Hard-code the alignment at 256k as wider alignment is not
necessary.

Summary:
Powerpc64 has support for a register called Data Stream Control Register
(DSCR), which basically controls how the hardware controls the caching and
prefetch for stream operations.
Since mfdscr and mtdscr are privileged instructions, we need to emulate them,
and
keep the custom DSCR configuration per thread.
The purpose of this feature is to change DSCR depending on the operation, set
to DSCR Default Prefetch Depth to deepest on string operations, as memcpy.

Summary:
This code adds the basic infrastructure for the facility subsystem. A facility
trap is raised when an unavailable instruction is executed. One example is
executing a Hardware Transactional Memory instruction while the MSR[TM] is
disabled. In the past, there was a specific interrupt for it (FP, VEC), but the
new instructions seem to be multiplexed on this facility interrupt.
The root cause of the trap is provided on Facility Status and Control Register
(FSCR) register.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
These processors may not be supported yet, but add them for completion.
POWER9 is planned for support. e300 may work (based on 603e core).
P5040/P5021 are similar to P5020, so should work as well. One addition is
needed for P5040, to support the number of LAWs, and will be a separate commit.
Extend the Book-E pmap to support 64-bit operation. Much of this was taken from
Juniper's Junos FreeBSD port. It uses a 3-level page table (page directory
list -- PP2D, page directory, page table), but has gaps in the page directory
list where regions will repeat, due to the design of the PP2D hash (a 20-bit gap
between the two parts of the index). In practice this may not be a problem
given the expanded address space. However, an alternative to this would be to
use a 4-level page table, like Linux, and possibly reduce the available address
space; Linux appears to use a 46-bit address space. Alternatively, a cache of
page directory pointers could be used to keep the overall design as-is, but
remove the gaps in the address space.
This includes a new kernel config for 64-bit QorIQ SoCs, based on MPC85XX, with
the following notes:
* The DPAA driver has not yet been ported to 64-bit so is not included in the
kernel config.
* This has been tested on the AmigaOne X5000, using a MD_ROOT compiled in
(total size kernel+mdroot must be under 64MB).
* This can run both 32-bit and 64-bit processes, and has even been tested to run
a 32-bit init with 64-bit children.

Freescale added the E.D profile to e500mc and derivative cores. From
Freescale's EREF reference manual this is enabled by a bit in HID0 and should
otherwise default to traditional debug. However, none of the Freescale cores
support that bit, and instead always use E.D. This results in kernel panics
using the standard debug on e500mc+ cores.
Enhanced debug allows debugging of interrupts, including critical interrupts,
as it uses a different save/restore registers (srr*). At this time we don't use
this ability, so instead share the core of the debug handler code between both
handlers.

Summary:
The Freescale e500v2 PowerPC core does not use a standard FPU.
Instead, it uses a Signal Processing Engine (SPE)--a DSP-style vector processor
unit, which doubles as a FPU. The PowerPC SPE ABI is incompatible with the
stock powerpc ABI, so a new MACHINE_ARCH was created to deal with this.
Additionaly, the SPE opcodes overlap with Altivec, so these are mutually
exclusive. Taking advantage of this fact, a new file, powerpc/booke/spe.c, was
created with the same function set as in powerpc/powerpc/altivec.c, so it
becomes effectively a drop-in replacement. setjmp/longjmp were modified to save
the upper 32-bits of the now-64-bit GPRs (upper 32-bits are only accessible by
the SPE).
Note: This does _not_ support the SPE in the e500v1, as the e500v1 SPE does not
support double-precision floating point.
Also, without a new MACHINE_ARCH it would be impossible to provide binary
packages which utilize the SPE.
Additionally, no work has been done to support ports, work is needed for this.
This also means no newer gcc can yet be used. However, gcc's powerpc support
has been refactored which would make adding a powerpcspe-freebsd target very
easy.
Test Plan:
This was lightly tested on a RouterBoard RB800 and an AmigaOne A1222
(P1022-based) board, compiled against the new ABI. Base system utilities
(/bin/sh, /bin/ls, etc) still function appropriately, the system is able to boot
multiuser.

The PowerPC 970 processors have two different types of events: direct events
and indirect events. Thus far only direct events are supported. I included
