- add kvm_i386pae.c (used for PAE memory translations), and update Makefile
for libkvm build.
- in pdppaddr: pass a flag to indicate PAE mode. Use a bit ignored
by the MMU. Mask address with PG_FRAME to avoid side effects.
Tested with vmstat(1)/netstat(1) to debug core files of PAE and !PAE
kernels. Older kernel dumps will default to native i386 (!PAE) mode.
XXX Currently, savecore(8) will fail to dump a PAE kernel in a !PAE
environment (and reciprocally). So you need to sync and reboot
with a kernel of the same mode as the one that crashed. Once the dump
is successful, this does not matter anymore.
-int _kvm_kvatop(kvm_t *, u_long, u_long *);
-off_t _kvm_pa2off(kvm_t *, u_long);
+int _kvm_kvatop(kvm_t *, vaddr_t, paddr_t *);
+off_t _kvm_pa2off(kvm_t *, paddr_t);
Basically, use vaddr_t for VA and paddr_t for PA. In addition, for variables
representing addresses, use paddr_t or vaddr_t, depending on the context.
For most arches, vaddr_t and paddr_t are equivalent to unsigned long. However,
the change was needed for exotic situations, like i386 PAE, were unsigned long
is not suitable for PA which are 64 bits long. As this required a complete
change of the function prototypes, all arches had to be adapted accordingly.
Core files from before this commit should still work with the new code; I did
not see any direct dependency between core's structure and kvatop/pa2off.
The change was compile tested for all arches, as it impacts all of them.

to do with kernel core dumps on i386.
