* Increase the size of sigset_t to accomodate 128 signals -- adding new
versions of sys_setprocmask(), sys_sigaction(), sys_sigpending() and
sys_sigsuspend() to handle the changed arguments.
* Abstract the guts of sys_sigaltstack(), sys_setprocmask(), sys_sigaction(),
sys_sigpending() and sys_sigsuspend() into separate functions, and call them
from all the emulations rather than hard-coding everything. (Avoids uses
the stackgap crap for these system calls.)
* Add a new flag (p_checksig) to indicate that a process may have signals
pending and userret() needs to do the full (slow) check.
* Eliminate SAS_ALTSTACK; it's exactly the inverse of SS_DISABLE.
* Correct emulation bugs with restoring SS_ONSTACK.
* Make the signal mask in the sigcontext always use the emulated mask format.
* Store signals internally in sigaction structures, rather than maintaining a
bunch of little sigsets for each SA_* bit.
* Keep track of where we put the signal trampoline, rather than figuring it out
in *_sendsig().
* Issue a warning when a non-emulated sigaction bit is observed.
* Add missing emulated signals, and a native SIGPWR (currently not used).
* Implement the `not reset when caught' semantics for relevant signals.
Note: Only code touched by the i386 port has been modified. Other ports and
emulations need to be updated.

To do this the function extent_alloc_subregion() takes an additional `skew'
parameter. For compatibility's sake, this function has been renamed to
extent_alloc_subregion1().

- Create a new data structure, the proclist_desc, which contains a
pointer to a proclist, and eventually, a pointer to the lock for that
proclist. Declare a static array of proclist_descs, proclists[],
consisting of allproc, deadproc, and zombproc.
The only benefit this provides is that we don't use kmem_map to map the memory
used for name cache entries (though, this is a 13 virtual page savings on my
PPro) since vnodes are never freed (they have their own freelist).

* the first one would cause an unnecessary malloc() of iovec storage for
a msg_iovlen of UIO_SMALLIOV although the required amount of memory has
been allocated on the stack.
* the second one would cause a recvmsg() or sendmsg() with a msg_iovlen of
UIO_MAXIOV to fail with EMSGSIZE, which is also a violation of XNS5.
* availability of POSIX Synchronized I/O (kern.synchronized_io),
* maximum number of iovec structures to be used in readv(2) etc. (kern.iov_max)
via sysctl().
* if synchronized I/O file integrity completion of read operations was
requested, set IO_SYNC in the ioflag passed to the read vnode operator.
* if synchronized I/O data integrity completion of write operations was
requested, set IO_DSYNC in the ioflag passed to the write vnode operator.
means we're in interrupt context. Since we can be called from a network
hardware interrupt, we could corrupt the protocol queues we try to drain
them at that time.
called when devices attach, take two.
Note that it is necessary that mbinit() NOT allocate memory, since it
is called before mb_map is created. This is not a problem with the
pool allocator that is now used for mbufs and mbuf clusters.
The read/write system calls return ssize_t because -1 is used to indicate
error, therefore the transfer size MUST be limited to SSIZE_MAX, otherwise
garbage can be returned to the user.
There is NO change from existing behavior here, only a more precise
definition of that the semantics are, except in the Alpha case, where
the full SSIZE_MAX transfer size can now be realized (ssize_t is 64-bit
on the Alpha).

- If either an alloc or release function is provided, make sure both are
provided, otherwise panic, as this is a fatal error.
- If using the default allocator, default the pool pagesz to PAGE_SIZE,
since that is the granularity of the default allocator's mechanism.
- In the default allocator, use new functions:
uvm_km_alloc_poolpage()/uvm_km_free_poolpage(), or
kmem_alloc_poolpage()/kmem_free_poolpage()
rather than doing it here. These functions may use pmap hooks to
provide alternate methods of mapping pool pages.
- pread() (#173) and pwrite() (#174), which are defined by XPG4.2. System
call numbers match Solaris.
- preadv() (#289) and pwritev() (#290), which are the positional cousins
of readv() and writev(), but not defined by any standard.
