There is no need explaining how to do manually what libkvm does for you,
and how the HP MMU works, on an arch which doesn't have this MMU.

-NOTE: this description applies to the hp300 system with the old BSD
-virtual memory system. It has not been updated to reflect the new,
-Mach-derived VM system, but should still be useful.
-The new system has no fixed-address "u.", but has a fixed mapping
-for the kernel stack at 0xfff00000.
-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Some quick notes on the HPBSD VM layout and kernel debugging.
-
-Physical memory:
-
-Physical memory always ends at the top of the 32 bit address space; i.e. the
-last addressible byte is at 0xFFFFFFFF. Hence, the start of physical memory
-varies depending on how much memory is installed. The kernel variable "lowram"
-contains the starting locatation of memory as provided by the ROM.
-
-The low 128k (I think) of the physical address space is occupied by the ROM.
-This is accessible via /dev/mem *only* if the kernel is compiled with DEBUG.
-[ Maybe it should always be accessible? ]
-
-Virtual address spaces:
-
-The hardware page size is 4096 bytes. The hardware uses a two-level lookup.
-At the highest level is a one page segment table which maps a page table which
-maps the address space. Each 4 byte segment table entry (described in
-hp300/pte.h) contains the page number of a single page of 4 byte page table
-entries. Each PTE maps a single page of address space. Hence, each STE maps
-4Mb of address space and one page containing 1024 STEs is adequate to map the
-entire 4Gb address space.
-
-Both page and segment table entries look similar. Both have the page frame
-in the upper part and control bits in the lower. This is the opposite of
-the VAX. It is easy to convert the page frame number in an STE/PTE to a
-physical address, simply mentally mask out the low 12 bits. For example
-if a PTE contains 0xFF880019, the physical memory location mapped starts at
-0xFF880000.
-
-Kernel address space:
-
-The kernel resides in its own virtual address space independent of all user
-processes. When the processor is in supervisor mode (i.e. interrupt or
-exception handling) it uses the kernel virtual mapping. The kernel segment
-table is called Sysseg and is allocated statically in hp300/locore.s. The
-kernel page table is called Systab is also allocated statically in
-hp300/locore.s and consists of the usual assortment of SYSMAPs.
-The size of Systab (Syssize) depends on the configured size of the various
-maps but as currently configured is 9216 PTEs. Both segment and page tables
-are initialized at bootup in hp300/locore.s. The segment table never changes
-(except for bits maintained by the hardware). Portions of the page table
-change as needed. The kernel is mapped into the address space starting at 0.
-
-Theoretically, any address in the range 0 to Syssize * 4096 (0x2400000 as
-currently configured) is valid. However, certain addresses are more common
-in dumps than others. Those are (for the current configuration):
-
- 0 - 0x800000 kernel text and permanent data structures
- 0x917000 - 0x91a000 u-area; 1st page is user struct, last k-stack
- 0x1b1b000 - 0x2400000 user page tables, also kmem_alloc()ed data
-
-User address space:
-
-The user text and data are loaded starting at VA 0. The user's stack starts
-at 0xFFF00000 and grows toward lower addresses. The pages above the user
-stack are used by the kernel. From 0xFFF00000 to 0xFFF03000 is the u-area.
-The 3 PTEs for this range map (read-only) the same memory as does 0x917000
-to 0x91a000 in the kernel address space. This address range is never used
-by the kernel, but exists for utilities that assume that the u-area sits
-above the user stack. The pages from FFF03000 up are not used. They
-exist so that the user stack is in the same location as in HPUX.
-
-The user segment table is allocated along with the page tables from Usrptmap.
-They are contiguous in kernel VA space with the page tables coming before
-the segment table. Hence, a process has p_szpt+1 pages allocated starting
-at kernel VA p_p0br.
-
-The user segment table is typically very sparse since each entry maps 4Mb.
-There are usually only two valid STEs, one at the start mapping the text/data
-potion of the page table, and one at the end mapping the stack/u-area. For
-example if the segment table was at 0xFFFFA000 there would be valid entries
-at 0xFFFFA000 and 0xFFFFAFFC.
-
-Random notes:
-
-An important thing to note is that there are no hardware length registers
-on the HP. This implies that we cannot "pack" data and stack PTEs into the
-same page table page. Hence, every user page table has at least 2 pages
-(3 if you count the segment table).
-
-The HP maintains the p0br/p0lr and p1br/p1lr PCB fields the same as the
-VAX even though they have no meaning to the hardware. This also keeps many
-utilities happy.
-
-There is no seperate interrupt stack (right now) on the HPs. Interrupt
-processing is handled on the kernel stack of the "current" process.
-
-Following is a list of things you might want to be able to do with a kernel
-core dump. One thing you should always have is a ps listing from the core
-file. Just do:
-
- ps klaw vmunix.? vmcore.?
-
-Exception related panics (i.e. those detected in hp300/trap.c) will dump
-out various useful information before panicing. If available, you should
-get this out of the /usr/adm/messages file. Finally, you should be in adb:
-
- adb -k vmunix.? vmcore.?
-
-Adb -k will allow you to examine the kernel address space more easily.
-It automatically maps kernel VAs in the range 0 to 0x2400000 to physical
-addresses. Since the kernel and user address spaces overlap (i.e. both
-start at 0), adb can't let you examine the address space of the "current"
-process as it does on the VAX.
---------
-
-1. Find out what the current process was at the time of the crash:
-
-If you have the dump info from /usr/adm/messages, it should contain the
-PID of the active process. If you don't have this info you can just look
-at location "Umap". This is the PTE for the first page of the u-area; i.e.
-the user structure. Forget about the last 3 hex digits and compare the top
-5 to the ADDR column in the ps listing.
-
-2. Locating a process' user structure:
-
-Get the ADDR field of the desired process from the ps listing. This is the
-page frame number of the process' user structure. Tack 3 zeros on to the
-end to get the physical address. Note that this doesn't give you the kernel
-stack since it is in a different page than the user-structure and pages of
-the u-area are not physically contiguous.
-
-3. Locating a process' proc structure:
-
-First find the process' user structure as described above. Find the u_procp
-field at offset 0x200 from the beginning. This gives you the kernel VA of
-the proc structure.
-
-4. Locating a process' page table:
-
-First find the process' user structure as described above. The first part
-of the user structure is the PCB. The second longword (third field) of the
-PCB is pcb_ustp, a pointer to the user segment table. This pointer is
-actually the page frame number. Again adding 3 zeros yields the physical
-address. You can now use the values in the segment table to locate the
-page tables. For example, to locate the first page of the text/data part
-of the page table, use the first STE (longword) in the segment table.
-
-5. Locating a process' kernel stack:
-
-First find the process' page table as described above. The kernel stack
-is near the end of the user address space. So, locate the last entry in the
-user segment table (base+0xFFC) and use that entry to find the last page of
-the user page table. Look at the last 256 entries of this page
-(pagebase+0xFE0) The first is the PTE for the user-structure. The second
-was intended to be a read-only page to protect the user structure from the
-kernel stack. Currently it is read/write and actually allocated. Hence
-it can wind up being a second page for the kernel stack. The third is the
-kernel stack. The last 253 should be zero. Hence, indirecing through the
-third of these last 256 PTEs will give you the kernel stack page.
-
-An alternate way to do this is to use the p_addr field of the proc structure
-which is found as described above. The p_addr field is at offset 0x10 in the
-proc structure and points to the first of the PTEs mentioned above (i.e. the
-user structure PTE).
-
-6. Interpreting the info in a "trap type N..." panic:
-
-As mentioned, when the kernel crashes out of hp300/trap.c it will dump some
-useful information. This dates back to the days when I was debugging the
-exception handling code and had no kernel adb or even kernel crash dump code.
-"trap type" (decimal) is as defined in hp300/trap.h, it doesn't really
-correlate with anything useful. "code" (hex) is only useful for MMU
-(trap type 8) errors. It is the concatination of the MMU status register
-(see hp300/cpu.h) in the high 16 bits and the 68020 special status word
-(see the 020 manual page 6-17) in the low 16. "v" (hex) is the virtual
-address which caused the fault. "pid" (decimal) is the ID of the process
-running at the time of the exception. Note that if we panic in an interrupt
-routine, this process may not be related to the panic. "ps" (hex) is the
-value of the 68020 status register (see page 1-4 of 020 manual) at the time
-of the crash. If the 0x2000 bit is on, we were in supervisor (kernel) mode
-at the time, otherwise we were in user mode. "pc" (hex) is the value of the
-PC saved on the hardware exception frame. It may *not* be the PC of the
-instruction causing the fault (see the 020 manual for details). The 0x2000
-bit of "ps" dictates whether this is a kernel or user VA. "sfc" and "dfc"
-are the 68020 source/destination function codes. They should always be one.
-"p0" and "p1" are the VAX-like region registers. They are of the form:
-
- <length> '@' <kernel VA>
-
-where both are in hex. Following these values are a dump of the processor
-registers (hex). Check the address registers for values close to "v", the
-fault address. Most faults are causes by dereferences of bogus pointers.
-Most such dereferences are the result of 020 instructions using the:
-
- <address-register> '@' '(' offset ')'
-
-addressing mode. This can help you track down the faulting instruction (since
-the PC may not point to it). Note that the value of a7 (the stack pointer) is
-ALWAYS the user SP. This is brain-dead I know. Finally, is a dump of the
-stack (user/kernel) at the time of the offense. Before kernel crash dumps,
-this was very useful.
-
-7. Converting kernel virtual address to a physical address.
-
-Adb -k already does this for you, but sometimes you want to know what the
-resulting physical address is rather than what is there. Doing this is
-simply a matter of indexing into the kernel page table. In theory we would
-first have to do a lookup in the kernel segment table, but we know that the
-kernel page table is physically contiguous so this isn't necessary. The
-base of the system page table is "Sysmap", so to convert an address V just
-divide the address by 4096 to get the page number, multiply that by 4 (the
-size of a PTE in bytes) to get a byte offset, and add that to "Sysmap".
-This gives you the address of the PTE mapping V. You can then get the
-physical address by masking out the low 12 bits of the contents of that PTE.
-To wit:
-
- *(Sysmap+(VA%1000*4))&fffff000
-
-where VA is the virtual address in question.
-
-This technique should also work for user virtual addresses if you replace
-"Sysmap" with the value of the appropriate processes' P0BR. This works
-because a user's page table is *virtually* contiguous in the kernel
-starting at P0BR, and adb will handle translating the kernel virtual addresses
-for you.

-Overview:
---------
-
- (Some of this is gleaned from an article in the September 1986
- Hewlett-Packard Journal and info in the July 1987 HP Communicator)
-
- Page and segment table entries mimic the Motorola 68851 PMMU,
- in an effort at upward compatibility. The HP MMU uses a two
- level translation scheme. There are seperate (but equal!)
- translation tables for both supervisor and user modes. At the
- lowest level are page tables. Each page table consists of one
- or more 4k pages of 1024x4 byte page table entries. Each PTE
- maps one 4k page of VA space. At the highest level is the
- segment table. The segment table is a single 4K page of 1024x4
- byte entries. Each entry points to a 4k page of PTEs. Hence
- one STE maps 4Mb of VA space and one page of STEs is sufficient
- to map the entire 4Gb address space (what a coincidence!). The
- unused valid bit in page and segment table entries must be
- zero.
-
- There are seperate translation lookaside buffers for the user
- and supervisor modes, each containing 1024 entries.
-
- To augment the 68020's instruction cache, the HP CPU has an
- external cache. A logical cache implementation is used with 16
- Kbytes of cache on 320 systems and 32 Kbytes on 350 systems.
- Each cache entry can contain instructions or data, from either
- user or supervisor space. Seperate valid bits are kept for
- user and supervisor entries, allowing for descriminatory
- flushing of the cache.
-
- MMU translation and cache-miss detection are done in parallel.
-
-
-Segment table entries:
-------- ----- -------
-
- bits 31-12: Physical page frame number of PT page
- bits 11-4: Reserved at zero
- (can software use them?)
- bit 3: Reserved at one
- bit 2: Set to 1 if segment is read-only, ow read-write
- bits 1-0: Valid bits
- (hardware uses bit 1)
-
-
-Page table entries:
----- ----- -------
-
- bits 31-12: Physical page frame number of page
- bits 11-7: Available for software use
- bit 6: If 1, inhibits caching of data in this page.
- (both instruction and external cache)
- bit 5: Reserved at zero
- bit 4: Hardware modify bit
- bit 3: Hardware reference bit
- bit 2: Set to 1 if page is read-only, ow read-write
- bits 1-0: Valid bits
- (hardware uses bit 0)
-
-
-Hardware registers:
--------- ---------
-
- The hardware has four longword registers controlling the MMU.
- The registers can be accessed as shortwords also (remember to
- add 2 to addresses given below).
-
- 5F4000: Supervisor mode segment table pointer. Loaded (as longword)
- with page frame number (i.e. Physaddr >> 12) of the segment
- table mapping supervisor space.
- 5F4004: User mode segment table pointer. Loaded (as longword) with
- page frame number of the segment table mapping user space.
- 5F4008: TLB control register. Used to invalid large sections of the
- TLB. More info below.
- 5F400C: MMU command/status register. Defined as follows:
-
- bit 15: If 1, indicates a page table fault occured
- bit 14: If 1, indicates a page fault occured
- bit 13: If 1, indicates a protection fault (write to RO page)
- bit 6: MC68881 enable. Tied to chip enable line.
- (set this bit to enable)
- bit 5: MC68020 instruction cache enable. Tied to Insruction
- cache disable line. (set this bit to enable)
- bit 3: If 1, indicates an MMU related bus error occured.
- Bits 13-15 are now valid.
- bit 2: External cache enable. (set this bit to enable)
- bit 1: Supervisor mapping enable. Enables translation of
- supervisor space VAs.
- bit 0: User mapping enable. Enables translation of user
- space VAs.
-
-
- Any bits set by the hardware are cleared only by software.
- (i.e. bits 3,13,14,15)
-
-Invalidating TLB:
------------- ---
-
- All translations:
- Read the TLB control register (5F4008) as a longword.
-
- User translations only:
- Write a longword 0 to TLB register or set the user
- segment table pointer.
-
- Supervisor translations only:
- Write a longword 0x8000 to TLB register or set the
- supervisor segment table pointer.
-
- A particular VA translation:
- Set destination function code to 3 ("purge" space),
- write a longword 0 to the VA whose translation we are to
- invalidate, and restore function code. This apparently
- invalidates any translation for that VA in both the user
- and supervisor LB. Here is what I did:
-
- #define FC_PURGE 3
- #define FC_USERD 1
- _TBIS:
- movl sp@(4),a0 | VA to invalidate
- moveq #FC_PURGE,d0 | change address space
- movc d0,dfc | for destination
- moveq #0,d0 | zero to invalidate?
- movsl d0,a0@ | hit it
- moveq #FC_USERD,d0 | back to old
- movc d0,dfc | address space
- rts | done
-
-
-Invalidating the external cache:
------------- --- -------- -----
-
- Everything:
- Toggle the cache enable bit (bit 2) in the MMU control
- register (5F400C). Can be done by ANDing and ORing the
- register location.
-
- User:
- Change the user segment table pointer register (5F4004),
- i.e. read the current value and write it back.
-
- Supervisor:
- Change the supervisor segment table pointer register
- (5F4000), i.e. read the current value and write it back.
