with newlock2 merge:
Replace the Mach-derived boolean_t type with the C99 bool type. A
future commit will replace use of TRUE and FALSE with true and false.
P_*/L_* naming convention, and rename the in-kernel flags to avoid
conflict. (P_ -> PK_, L_ -> LW_ ). Add back the (now unused) LSDEAD
constant.
Restores source compatibility with pre-newlock2 tools like ps or top.

implies that _UC_CPU must be set in the context passed. Check for this
and return EINVAL if not; this gives a cheap test for corrupted
ucontexts eg on a signal handler stack which would go unnoticed otherwise.
-Don't ckeck for NULL ucontext pointers explicitely. This is an error,
except in the swapcontext() case where it can be easily caught in
userland.
use it. idea partly from yamt. assert SCHED_ASSERT_UNLOCKED() in
all the places we call ksiginfo_queue() without a ksiginfo.
fixes recent panics detected by LOCKDEBUG.
pool_get(). pre-allocate the ksiginfo_t before taking sched_lock and
use it if necessary, or freeing it if it is unused.
rename ksiginfo_{get,put}() to ksiginfo_{dequeue,queue}() (idea from chuq.)
this fixes PR#32962. thanks to christos, chuq and go for help/ideas.
- struct timeval time is gone
time.tv_sec -> time_second
- struct timeval mono_time is gone
mono_time.tv_sec -> time_uptime
- access to time via
{get,}{micro,nano,bin}time()
get* versions are fast but less precise
- support NTP nanokernel implementation (NTP API 4)

in the case where we're sending SIGKILL but all LWPs are not signalable.
some LWP will wake up soon enough to process the signal, and there may
not be any LWPs in the cache to wake up anyway. fixes PR 28886 and PR 26771.
also, add a missing "break" pointed out by yamt.

- introduce sys/timevar.h to hold kernel-specific stuff relevant to
sys/time.h. Ideally, timevar.h would contain all (or almost) of the
#ifdef _KERNEL part of time.h, but that's a pretty big and tedious
change to make. For now, it will contain only the prototypes I
introduced when working on COMPAT_NETBSD32.
- split copyinout_t into copyin_t and copyout_t, it makes prototypes more
explicit about the meaning of a given argument. Suggested by yamt@.
- move copyinout_t definition in sys/time.h to systm.h as copyin_t and
copyout_t
- make everything uses the new types and include the proper headers at
the proper places.
since both pool_get() and pool_put() can call wakeup().
instead, allocate the struct sadata_upcall before taking
sched_lock in mi_switch() and free it after releasing sched_lock.
clean up some modularity warts by adding a callback to
struct sadata_upcall for freeing sa_arg.
i/o is done. Instead, pass an opaque cookie which is then passed to a
new routine, coredump_write, which does the actual i/o. This allows the
method of doing i/o to change without affecting any future MD code.
Also, make netbsd32_core.c [re]use core_netbsd.c (in a similar manner that
core_elf64.c uses core_elf32.c) and eliminate that code duplication.
cpu_coredump{,32} is now called twice, first with a NULL iocookie to fill
the core structure and a second to actually write md parts of the coredump.
All i/o is nolonger random access and is suitable for shipping over a stream.
- don't use managed mappings/backing objects for wired memory allocations.
save some resources like pv_entry. also fix (most of) PR/27030.
- simplify kernel memory management API.
- simplify pmap bootstrap of some ports.
- some related cleanups.
