write lock when doing PID allocation, and during the process exit path.
Use a read lock every where else, including within schedcpu() (interrupt
context). Note that holding the write lock implies blocking schedcpu()
from running (blocks softclock).
PID allocation is now MP-safe.
Note this actually fixes a bug on single processor systems that was probably
extremely difficult to tickle; it was possible that schedcpu() would run
off a bad pointer if the right clock interrupt happened to come in the
middle of a LIST_INSERT_HEAD() or LIST_REMOVE() to/from allproc.
body of reaper(), right before the call to uvm_exit(). cpu_wait() must
be done before uvm_exit() because the resources it frees might be located
in the PCB.
- When the exit signal is specified to be 0, don't just assume they
meant SIGCHLD. In the Linux world, this appears to mean "don't deliver
an exit signal at all".
- Simplify P_EXITSIG(); don't check against initproc here, just change
the exit signal to SIGCHLD if reparenting to initproc.
A very simple clone(2) test program now works, and the MpegTV package
starts, but doesn't run properly yet (I believe there is a separate
bug which keeps it from working properly).
which use uvm_vslock() should now test the return value. If it's not
KERN_SUCCESS, wiring the pages failed, so the operation which is using
uvm_vslock() should error out.
XXX We currently just EFAULT a failed uvm_vslock(). We may want to do
more about translating error codes in the future.
vslocking here?! copyout() on its own seems to suffice just about everwhere
else, and it's not like the process is going to exit; it's in a system
call!

directories and use .PATH to lookup the source files.
(Formerly, the libs were built from the source dirs, with MAKEOBJDIR
set to the compilation directory.)
This solves 2 problems:
-"mkdep" and "make" are now consistent about the file lookup, this fixes
bad interactions with amd reported in PR bin/7374 (Arne Juul) and
lossage reported by Andrew Gillham ("obj" dirs and relative paths still
don't work well together)
-kernel compile trees can be moved around without forcing a new
"make depend" - fixing PR kern/4021 by Martin Husemann
