- change default value to RB_AUTOBOOT instead of RB_SINGLE, and adapt
the config(5) files accordingly
- document this option inside options(4)

signal code; it already does the correct thing.
to avoid unnecessary 64 bit ops which would make binaries larger:

which are used to measure relative time
saseconds_t (currently int):

which is now the "API" provided by the pmap module. pmap_kernel()
remains as the syntactic sugar.
Bonus cosmetics round: move all the pmap_t pointer typedefs into
uvm_pmap.h.

into modules. By and large this commit:
- shuffles header files and ifdefs
- splits code out where necessary to be modular
- adds module glue for each of the components
- adds/replaces hooks for things that can be installed at runtime
doshutdownhooks(9): shutdown hooks registered by shutdownhook_establish(9)
expect to be called with interrupts disabled, but shutdown hooks
registered with pmf_device_register1(9) expect to be called with
interrupts enabled. So I have made two changes:
1 Do not call pmf_system_shutdown() from doshutdownhooks(). Instead,
change every call to doshutdownhooks() to a call to doshutdownhooks()
followed by a call to pmf_system_shutdown(). No functional change
is intended by this change.
2 Make i386 re-enable interrupts briefly while it calls
pmf_system_shutdown(). I leave it to others either to fix the
other ports, or to factor out some MI shutdown code, as joerg@
suggests, and fix that. Note that a functional change *is* intended
by this change.
I hope that this patch will stop us from flip-flopping between
calling doshutdownhooks() and pmf_system_shutdown() sometimes with
and sometimes without interrupts enabled.

point to prevent unloading of modules that provide syscalls, while the

we no longer need to guard against access from hardware interrupt handlers.
Additionally, if cloning a process with CLONE_SIGHAND, arrange to have the
child process share the parent's lock so that signal state may be kept in
sync. Partially addresses PR kern/37437.
proclist_mutex and proclist_lock into a single adaptive mutex (proc_lock).
Implications:
- Inspecting process state requires thread context, so signals can no longer
be sent from a hardware interrupt handler. Signal activity must be
deferred to a soft interrupt or kthread.
- As the proc state locking is simplified, it's now safe to take exit()
and wait() out from under kernel_lock.
- The system spends less time at IPL_SCHED, and there is less lock activity.
- Add a lot of missing selinit() and seldestroy() calls.
- Merge selwakeup() and selnotify() calls into a single selnotify().
- Add an additional 'events' argument to selnotify() call. It will
indicate which event (POLL_IN, POLL_OUT, etc) happen. If unknown,
zero may be used.
Note: please pass appropriate value of 'events' where possible.

Change internal register SSP to contain curlwp insread curcpu(). This
shrinks the GENERIC by 2KB.
Add rwlock stubs (rw_enter, rw_exit, rw_tryenter).
Simplify simple lock code for uniprocessors.
Do SPL raise/lower in cpu_handle_ipi instead of simple_locks.
Use a field in the pcb itself (since it's basically free) and keep track of
what pmap "owns" a pcb (for consistency checking). use M_ZERO as appropriate.
them in the mi "files" file, and remove include statements from md files.
These shouldn't pull in additional kernel code when not in use, so it
shouldn't do any harm except a risk of namespace collisions which
should be easy to fix.
Instead of passing the (un)real system call code and syscall table pointer,
just pass the number of arguments - which is what ktrace really wants.

- All three functions are included in the kernel by default.
They call a backend function cpu_in_cksum after possibly
computing the checksum of the pseudo header.
- cpu_in_cksum is the core to implement the one-complement sum.
The default implementation is moderate fast on most platforms
and provides a 32bit accumulator with 16bit addends for L32 platforms
and a 64bit accumulator with 32bit addends for L64 platforms.
It handles edge cases like very large mbuf chains (could happen with
native IPv6 in the future) and provides a good base for new native
implementations.
- Modify i386 and amd64 assembly to use the new interface.
This disables the MD implementations on !x86 until the conversion is
done. For Alpha, the portable version is faster.

They can be tweaked via sysctl now. Ports that were setting values on

This branch was a major cleanup and rototill of many of the various OEA
cpu based PPC ports that focused on sharing as much code as possible
between the various ports to eliminate near-identical copies of files in
every tree. Additionally there is a new PIC system that unifies the
interface to interrupt code for all different OEA ppc arches. The work
for this branch was done by a variety of people, too long to list here.
TODO:
bebox still needs work to complete the transition to -renovation.
ofppc still needs a bunch of work, which I will be looking at.
ev64260 still needs to be renovated
amigappc was not attempted.
NOTES:
pmppc was removed as an arch, and moved to a evbppc target.
