Author: nwhitehorn Date: Fri Feb 9 20:09:32 2018 New Revision: 329080 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/329080 Log: Fix PowerMac G5 thermal management, plus likely other bugs, introduced in r328113 and affecting SMP systems. The way the time is set on PowerMacs is racy and relies on all the CPUs in the system setting a register simultaneously in a rendezvous. A few-cycle delay can result in out-of-sync times, which can break the scheduler and result in calls like mtx_sleep() and pause() never timing out if the thread is migrated while sleeping. r328113 added a call to a no-op function between the beginning of the rendezvous and setting the time that was only called on APs and added enough cycles to cause a problematic offset. For some reason, the fan-management code was the first place this appeared.
