from doc/BRANCHES:
idle lwp, and some changes depending on it.
1. separate context switching and thread scheduling.
(cf. gmcgarry_ctxsw)
2. implement idle lwp.
3. clean up related MD/MI interfaces.
4. make scheduler(s) modular.
- finish implementing splraiseipl (and makeiplcookie).

- complete workqueue(9) and fix its ipl problem, which is reported
to cause audio skipping.
- fix netbt (at least compilation problems) for some ports.
- fix PR/33218.
version.
Add disk_blocksize(9) so that disk drivers can record the physical
block size of a disk if it is different to DEV_BSIZE. Right now this
simply initialises dk_blkshift and dk_byteshift according to the
supplied block size. This information is used in the MI version of
bounds_check_with_label().
- Add COMPAT_15 to all the kernel that had COMPAT_14, for the sake of coherency
- Remove the only occurences of #ifdef COMPAT_15 in the tree: for the ARM
ports, COMPAT_15 was always used in conjunction with EXEC_AOUT. Only EXEC_AOUT
matters here.

. Make this error a fatal build time error
. Move the support for dbsym into the MI Makefile.kern.inc,
conditional upon the SYMTAB_SPACE option being defined in
the kernel config file.
was developed as part of Google's Summer of Code 2005 program. This
change adds the kernel code, the mount_tmpfs utility, a regression test
suite and does all other related changes to integrate these.
The file-system is still *experimental*. Therefore, it is disabled by
default in all kernels. However, as typically done, a commented-out
entry is added in them to ease its setup.
Note that I haven't commited the required mountd(8) changes to be able
to export tmpfs file-systems because NFS support is still very unstable
and because, before enabling it, I'd like to do some other changes.
OK'ed by my project mentor, William Studenmund (wrstuden@).
