This merge changes the device switch tables from static array to
dynamically generated by config(8).
- All device switches is defined as a constant structure in device drivers.
- The new grammer ``device-major'' is introduced to ``files''.
device-major <prefix> char <num> [block <num>] [<rules>]
- All device major numbers must be listed up in port dependent majors.<arch>
by using this grammer.
- Added the new naming convention.
The name of the device switch must be <prefix>_[bc]devsw for auto-generation
of device switch tables.
- The backward compatibility of loading block/character device
switch by LKM framework is broken. This is necessary to convert
from block/character device major to device name in runtime and vice versa.
- The restriction to assign device major by LKM is completely removed.
We don't need to reserve LKM entries for dynamic loading of device switch.
- In compile time, device major numbers list is packed into the kernel and
the LKM framework will refer it to assign device major number dynamically.
counters. These counters do not exist on all CPUs, but where they
do exist, can be used for counting events such as dcache misses that
would otherwise be difficult or impossible to instrument by code
inspection or hardware simulation.
pmc(9) is meant to be a general interface. Initially, the Intel XScale
counters are the only ones supported.
be properly used by any misc. cloning device. While here, correct
a comment to indicate that "open" is the only entry point and that
everything else is handled with fileops.
- Switch all m68k-based ports over to __HAVE_SYSCALL_INTERN.
- Add systrace glue.
- Define struct mdproc in <m68k/proc.h> instead of <machine/proc.h>.
(They were all defined exactly the same anyway, other than a couple
of the MDP_* flags.)
MALLOC_NOINLINE, and VNODE_OP_NOINLINE. The exceptions are when they
include another config files that already defines the options, or if
they are for an embedded board, just define a few extra options, and
do not already define PIPE_SOCKETPAIR.
* struct sigacts gets a new sigact_sigdesc structure, which has the
sigaction and the trampoline/version. Version 0 means "legacy kernel
provided trampoline". Other versions are coordinated with machine-
dependent code in libc.
* sigaction1() grows two more arguments -- the trampoline pointer and
the trampoline version.
* A new __sigaction_sigtramp() system call is provided to register a
trampoline along with a signal handler.
* The handler is no longer passed to sensig() functions. Instead,
sendsig() looks up the handler by peeking in the sigacts for the
process getting the signal (since it has to look in there for the
trampoline anyway).
* Native sendsig() functions now select the appropriate trampoline and
its arguments based on the trampoline version in the sigacts.
Changes to libc to use the new facility will be checked in later. Kernel
version not bumped; we will ride the 1.6C bump made recently.
into kernel_object where this was missing.
This is a no-op on ports where VM_MIN_KERNEL_ADDRESS==0, ie all but
cesfic.

by Christoph Badura:
It looks to me like the 425e uses reverse polarity of the MCR_IEN bit with
respect to the other 4xx models. That could be because it doesn't have
an inverter wired behind the IEN(OUT2) output of the UART.
Fix is inspired by change in OpenBSD. Serial console input is
confirmed working on 425e by Thilo Manske.
indicating an unhandled "command". ERESTART is -1, which can lead to
confusion. ERESTART has been moved to -3 and EPASSTHROUGH has been
placed at -4. No ioctl code should now return -1 anywhere. The
ioctl() system call is now properly restartable.
deal with shortages of the VM maps where the backing pages are mapped
(usually kmem_map). Try to deal with this:
* Group all information about the backend allocator for a pool in a
separate structure. The pool references this structure, rather than
the individual fields.
* Change the pool_init() API accordingly, and adjust all callers.
* Link all pools using the same backend allocator on a list.
* The backend allocator is responsible for waiting for physical memory
to become available, but will still fail if it cannot callocate KVA
space for the pages. If this happens, carefully drain all pools using
the same backend allocator, so that some KVA space can be freed.
* Change pool_reclaim() to indicate if it actually succeeded in freeing
some pages, and use that information to make draining easier and more
efficient.
* Get rid of PR_URGENT. There was only one use of it, and it could be
dealt with by the caller.

Be consistant in the way that MSIZE, MCLSHIFT, MCLBYTES and NMBCLUSTERS
are defined.
Remove old VM constants from cesfic port.
Bump MSIZE to 256 on mipsco (the only one that wasn't already 256).
references. Bogus for our MMU trampoline code which is relocated to
the last physical page before being invoked. This hack enforces all
addresses wrt the MMU trampoline code not to be pc-relative.
