The change ensures that ifnet objects in the ifnet list aren't freed during
list iterations by using pserialize(9) and psref(9).
Note that the change adds a pslist(9) for ifnet but doesn't remove the
original ifnet list (ifnet_list) to avoid breaking kvm(3) users. We
shouldn't use the original list in the kernel anymore.
this Makefile via the env.
That character is strictly speaking not allowed by POSIX in an exported
variable name, and at least dash >= 0.58 refuses to export such variables.
Furthermore, since the individual CFLAGS/CPPFLAGS/etc. variables
are not comprehensive enough for all cases (e.g. HURD), just
support the .includable version from now on, i.e.
RUMPCOMP_MAKEFILEINC_rumpdev_pci.

This change intends to run the whole network stack in softint context
(or normal LWP), not hardware interrupt context. Note that the work is
still incomplete by this change; to that end, we also have to softint-ify
if_link_state_change (and bpf) which can still run in hardware interrupt.
This change softint-ifies at ifp->if_input that is called from
each device driver (and ieee80211_input) to ensure Layer 2 runs
in softint (e.g., ether_input and bridge_input). To this end,
we provide a framework (called percpuq) that utlizes softint(9)
and percpu ifqueues. With this patch, rxintr of most drivers just
queues received packets and schedules a softint, and the softint
dequeues packets and does rest packet processing.
To minimize changes to each driver, percpuq is allocated in struct
ifnet for now and that is initialized by default (in if_attach).
We probably have to move percpuq to softc of each driver, but it's
future work. At this point, only wm(4) has percpuq in its softc
as a reference implementation.

Thank you very much!
sort of as a hint that relying on those macros is not necessarily the
way you want to do things in 2016. Include things from rump.h for compat
for the time being, though.
sprinkling them around the faction directories. Avoids having
to add a CPPFLAGS (or several) to pretty much every component
Makefile.
Leave compat headers around in the old locations.
The commit changes some autogenerated files, but I'll fix the
generators shortly and regen.
