so that modules work, on config files that did not set it explicitly. All
the files now use the standard logic, except the ones that set KERN_AS=obj
and Makefile.usermode which sets KERN_AS=library.
the TLS pointer, therefore wrecking the pthread environement.
Some ports had _UC_TLSBASE flag or equivalent (_UC_UNIQUE on alpha)
that controlled whether setcontext() would change the TLS pointer.
This change let libpthread override setcontext() with its own version
that unsets _UC_TLSBASE, enabling safe usage of setcontext() with
-lpthread.
We also have the following required changes here:
- rename alpha's _UC_UNIQUE into _UC_TLSBASE
- add _UC_TLSBASE definition in header file for all ports
(powerpc, sh3, sparc and sparc64 lack the implementation for now)
- introduce a libc stub that can be overriden for setcontext()
- modify MD libcs swapcontext() implementations so that they use the
setcontext() libc stub instead of doing a plain system call.
While we are there:
- document various MD _UC_* flags in header file
- add libc and libpthread tests for swapcontext() behavior
(hopefully helpful to spot MD problems introduced with this change)
Future work:
- Deciding whether kernel support or _UC_TLSBASE should be added for
powerpc, sh3, sparc and sparc64 is left to portmasters

WSDISPLAY_COMPAT_USL using the following rules:
- If WSEMUL_ is commented out, add commented out out WSDISPLAY_COMPAT_USL
- If INSTALL or obviously memory constrained, add WSDISPLAY_DEFAULTSCREENS=1
and commented out WSDISPLAY_COMPAT_USL
- Otherwise add WSDISPLAY_COMPAT_USL
Some of the INSTALL configs for larger memory machines are probably suitable
for adding WSDISPLAY_COMPAT_USL.
Now wsconscfg(8) should be able to switch VTs when expected.
Implemented after no objection from tech-kern to the following:

unwanted sideeffects in the RB_ASKNAME case. This fixes PR/46732.
No longer wrap MD cpu_rootconf(), as hp300 port stores reboot information
as a side effect. Instead call MI rootconf() from MD code which makes
rootconf() now a wrapper to setroot().
Adjust several MD routines to set the global booted_device,booted_partition
variables instead of passing partial information to setroot().
Make cpu_rootconf(9) describe the calling order.
assertion failure (and thus a crash in DIAGNOSTIC kernels). Independently
discovered by YAMAMOTO Takashi and Joel Sing.
To avoid this, introduce a cpu_mcontext_validate() function and move all
sanity checks from cpu_setmcontext() there. Also untangle the netbsd32
compat mess slightly and add a cpu_mcontext32_validate() cousin there.
Add an exhaustive atf test case, based partly on code from Joel Sing.
Should finally fix the remaining open part of PR kern/43903.
1) Move core entropy-pool code and source/sink/sample management code
to sys/kern from sys/dev.
2) Remove use of NRND as test for presence of entropy-pool code throughout
source tree.
3) Remove use of RND_ENABLED in device drivers as microoptimization to
avoid expensive operations on disabled entropy sources; make the
rnd_add calls do this directly so all callers benefit.
4) Fix bug in recent rnd_add_data()/rnd_add_uint32() changes that might
have lead to slight entropy overestimation for some sources.
5) Add new source types for environmental sensors, power sensors, VM
system events, and skew between clocks, with a sample implementation
for each.
ok releng to go in before the branch due to the difficulty of later
pullup (widespread #ifdef removal and moved files). Tested with release
builds on amd64 and evbarm and live testing on amd64.
simplifying uvm_map handling (no special kernel entries anymore no relocking)
make malloc(9) a thin wrapper around kmem(9)
(with private interface for interrupt safety reasons)

again. This was changed in sys/socket.h r1.51 to work around fallout
from the IPv6 aux data migration. It broke the historic ABI on some
platforms. This commit restores compatibility for netbsd32 code on such
platforms and provides a template for future changes to the CMSG_*
alignment. Revert PCC/Clang workarounds in postfix and tmux.
the device lock in relevant places. avoid doing so while actually dumping.
tested i386 crash dumps still work, and that all touched files compile.
fixes PR#45705.
source file as the entropy-pool code itself. Move it to std. This
will be cleaned up more when I split the sources up as they should be.
This fixes build breaks on several ports. Thanks to Havard Eidnes for
pointing them out.
