syscons: drop keyboard index from softc

Analysis seems to reveal that sc->keyboard >= 0 implies sc->kbd != NULL and
there's no such scenario where sc->kbd is set (and theoretically used to
rebuild sc->keyboard) with the keyboard unavailable.

Drop the index softc. The index is only explicitly needed in few places, in
which case we can just as easily grab it from sc->kbd. There's no need for
keeping sc->kbd and sc->keyboard in sync when it can be readily accomplished
with just the former.

i386: Merge PAE and non-PAE pmaps into same kernel.

Effectively all i386 kernels now have two pmaps compiled in: one
managing PAE pagetables, and another non-PAE. The implementation is
selected at cold time depending on the CPU features. The vm_paddr_t is
always 64bit now. As result, nx bit can be used on all capable CPUs.

Option PAE only affects the bus_addr_t: it is still 32bit for non-PAE
configs, for drivers compatibility. Kernel layout, esp. max kernel
address, low memory PDEs and max user address (same as trampoline
start) are now same for PAE and for non-PAE regardless of the type of
page tables used.

Non-PAE kernel (when using PAE pagetables) can handle physical memory
up to 24G now, larger memory requires re-tuning the KVA consumers and
instead the code caps the maximum at 24G. Unfortunately, a lot of
drivers do not use busdma(9) properly so by default even 4G barrier is
not easy. There are two tunables added: hw.above4g_allow and
hw.above24g_allow, the first one is kept enabled for now to evaluate
the status on HEAD, second is only for dev use.

i386 now creates three freelists if there is any memory above 4G, to
allow proper bounce pages allocation. Also, VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE changed
from 3 to 1.

The PAE_TABLES kernel config option is retired.

Default to color numbers in reverse order to CPU numbers (instead of

the brightest bright colors are used first. Don't use dark grey at all;
replace it by dark green.

Syscons has too many compile-time options, but this one is needed in

Fix low-level locking during panics.

The SCHEDULER_STOPPED() hack breaks locking generally, and
mtx_trylock_*() especially. When mtx_trylock_*() returns nonzero,
naive code version here trusts it to have worked. But when
SCHEDULER_STOPPED() is true, mtx_trylock_*() returns 1 without doing
anything. Then mtx_unlock_*() crashes especially badly attempting to
unlock iff the error is detected, since mutex unlocking functions don't
check SCHEDULER_STOPPED().

syscons already didn't trust mtx_trylock_spin(), but it was missing the
logic to turn on sp->kdb_locked when turning off sp->mtx_locked during
panics. It also used panicstr instead of SCHEDULER_LOCKED because I
thought that panicstr was more fragile. They only differ for a window
of lines in panic(), and in broken cases where stop_cpus_hard() in panic()
didn't work.

i386 4/4G split.

The change makes the user and kernel address spaces on i386
independent, giving each almost the full 4G of usable virtual addresses
except for one PDE at top used for trampoline and per-CPU trampoline
stacks, and system structures that must be always mapped, namely IDT,
GDT, common TSS and LDT, and process-private TSS and LDT if allocated.

By using 1:1 mapping for the kernel text and data, it appeared
possible to eliminate assembler part of the locore.S which bootstraps
initial page table and KPTmap. The code is rewritten in C and moved
into the pmap_cold(). The comment in vmparam.h explains the KVA
layout.

There is no PCID mechanism available in protected mode, so each
kernel/user switch forth and back completely flushes the TLB, except
for the trampoline PTD region. The TLB invalidations for userspace
becomes trivial, because IPI handlers switch page tables. On the other
hand, context switches no longer need to reload %cr3.

copyout(9) was rewritten to use vm_fault_quick_hold(). An issue for
new copyout(9) is compatibility with wiring user buffers around sysctl
handlers. This explains two kind of locks for copyout ptes and
accounting of the vslock() calls. The vm_fault_quick_hold() AKA slow
path, is only tried after the 'fast path' failed, which temporary
changes mapping to the userspace and copies the data to/from small
per-cpu buffer in the trampoline. If a page fault occurs during the
copy, it is short-circuit by exception.s to not even reach C code.

The change was motivated by the need to implement the Meltdown
mitigation, but instead of KPTI the full split is done. The i386
architecture already shows the sizing problems, in particular, it is
impossible to link clang and lld with debugging. I expect that the
issues due to the virtual address space limits would only exaggerate
and the split gives more liveness to the platform.

Normally, shutdown_nice() just signals init. However, sometimes it
calls kern_reboot directly. For that case, r331298 dropped the Giant
lock before calling it. This turns out to be incorrect for the more
common case where init exists and we just signal it. Restore the old
behavior. The direct call to kern_reboot() doesn't sync buffers to the
disk, so should work with Giant held, so we don't need to drop locks
here for that.

The hard-coded frame buffer address only works on x86. Use messy ifdefs

Support setting the colors of cursors for the VGA renderer.

Advertise this by changing the defaults to mostly red. If you don't like
this, change them (almost) back using:
vidcontrol -c charcolors,base=7,height=0
vidcontrol -c mousecolors,base=0[,height=15]

The (graphics mode only) mouse cursor colors were hard-coded to a black
border and lightwhite interior. Black for the border is the worst
possible default, since it is the same as the default black background
and not good for any dark background. Reversing this gives the better
default of X Windows. Coloring everything works better still. Now
the coloring defaults to a lightwhite border and red interior.

Coloring for the character cursor is more complicated and mode
dependent. The new coloring doesn't apply for hardware cursors. For
non-block cursors, it only applies in graphics mode. In text mode,
the cursor color was usually a hard-coded (dull)white for the background
only, unless the foreground was white when it was a hard-coded black
for the background only, unless the foreground was white and the
background was black it was reverse video. In graphics mode, it was
always reverse video for the block cursor. Reverse video is worse,
especially over cutmarking regions, since cutmarking still uses simple
reverse video (nothing better is possible in text mode) and double
reverse video for the cursor gives normal video. Now, graphics mode
uses the same algorithm as the best case for text mode in all cases
for graphics mode. The hard-coded sequence { white, black, } for the
background is now { red, white, blue, } where the first 2 colors can
be configured. The blue color at the end is a sentinel which prevents
reverse video being used in most cases but breaks the compatibility
setting for white on black and black on white characters. This will
be fixed later. The compatibility setting is most needed for mono modes.

The previous commit to syscons.c changed sc_cnterm() to be more careful.
It followed null pointers in some cases. But sc_cnterm() has been
unreachable for 15+ years since changes for multiple consoles turned
off calls to the the cnterm destructor for all console drivers. Before
them, it was only called at boot time. So no driver with an attached
console has ever been unloadable and not even the non-console destructors
have been tested much.

Fix missing switching of the terminal emulator when switching the
terminal state for kernel console output.

r56043 in 2000 added many complications to support dynamic selection
of the terminal emulator using modules and the ioctl CONS_SETTERM.
This was never completed. There are still no modules, but it is easy
to restore the scterm and dumb emulators at compile time. Then
boot-time configuration for the preferred one doesn't work right, but
CONS_SETTERM almost works after fixing this bug. CONS_SETTERM only
switches the emulator for the user state, leaving the kernel state(s)
still using the boot-time emulator. The fix is especially important
when switching from sc to scteken, since the scteken state has pointers
in it.

Fix setting of defaults for the text cursor.

There was already a per-vty defaults field, but it was useless since it was
only initialized when propagating the global settings and thus no different
from the current global settings and not per-vty. The global defaults field
was also invariant after boot time, but not quite so useless.

Fix this by adding a second selection bit the the control flags of the
relevant ioctl(). vidcontrol doesn't support this yet. Setting either
default propagates the change to the current setting for the same level
and then to all lower levels.

Improve the 3-way escape sequence used by termcap to control the cursor.
The "normal" (ve) case has always used reset, so the user could set
it to anything, but since the reset is to a global value this is not
very useful, especially since the "very visible" (vs) case doesn't
reset but inconsistently forces to a blinking block. Change vs to
first reset and then XOR the blinking bit so that it is predictably
different from ve.

Factor out some common code for the reversible translation. This is
slightly simpler now, and much easier to expand.

Translate the magic flags value -1 to a single control flag internally
up front so other flags can be trusted later. This can be used for the
relevant ioctl() too.

Remove CONS_CURSOR_FLAGS which contained all the control flags. It was
unused and not useful. After adding more flags, there will be tests on
a couple at a time but never on them all. This API should have used this
to disallow unknown flags.

Hard-code base = 0, height = (approx. 1/8 of the boot-time font height)

This asks for an underline cursor sized for the boot-time font instead
of various less hard-coded but worse values. I used that think that
the x86 BIOS always gave the same values as the above hard-coding, but
on 1 of my systems it gives the wrong value of base = 1.

The remaining BIOS fields are shift_state and bell_pitch. These are now
consistently not explicitly reinitialized to 0. All sc_get_bios_value()
functions except x86's are now empty, and the only useful thing that x86
returns is shift_state. This really belongs in atkbdc, but heavier
use of the BIOS to read the more useful typematic rate has been removed
there. fb still makes much heavier use of the BIOS.
