minor of libc and the major of libutil). For little-endian architectures
merge the bnswap() assembly versions with nto* and hton* using symbols
aliasing. Use symbol renaming for the bswap function in this case to avoid
namespace pollution.
Declare bswap* in machine/bswap.h, not machine/endian.h. For little-endian
machines, common code for inline macros go in machine/byte_swap.h
Sync libkern with libc.
Adjust #include in kernel sources for machine/bswap.h.

on ELF architectures effectively useless) symbol reference renaming in MI code.

This warning isn't about an ABI compatibility issue, but the new vfork() is
considerably faster.
with the syscall numbers changed.
Since 4.4BSD vfork(2) did not share address space, Ovfork.S could be changed
to be identical to fork.S (modulo syscall numbers). __vfork14.S, however,
needs to remain separate since with a shared address space, the stub needs to
pre-decrement the stack and do an indirect jump to the return address, so that
the shared stackframe is still there when the parent returns. (Obviously,
this does not apply to systems which to not build stackframes on leaf calls.)

stdlib doesn't do that, but there's no reason that it shouldn't (and
it'd be nice to eliminate the 'if's from the MI stdlib Makefile.inc).
68040 and 68060 owners.
With ``make M68040=1'' or ``make M68060=1'', we build a libc where the ldexp()
doesn't use excessive amounts of system cpu time.
Without any of those defines, the normal assembler version using FSCALE is
included, for the benefit of M68020 and M68030 users, or M68040/M68060 users
where the ldexp performance is no bottleneck.
[Its not yet worked out how to include both library versions in a binary
distribution, but you can build your own from source now if you need it.]
For details, look at PR 3105.
This code uses subb instead of cmpb to compare chars. When they are
not equal, the function's return value is computed by sign extending
the difference. The basic idea was contributed by Hiroshi Horitomo
<horimoto@cs-aoi.cs.sist.ac.jp> in PR #3223, but his implementation
used additional instructions to compute the return value.
Also, the series of insns used to compare one pair of characters has
been unrolled 4 times. This helps the 680[23]0, where the cost of a
taken branch is significantly more than that of a not-taken branch.
The implementation of these functions is losely based on the original
BSD code plus versions I was working on which would yeild code tuned
for a particular m68k or coldfire family cpu, code space or run time
efficiency, etc. depending on the values of various macros.
My original code was intended for use in OS-less embedded systems.
Because NetBSD can not benefit from the considerable complexity, I've
removed the extraneous preprocessor goop. The resulting code is tuned
for the '020 - '060. It will not function on the '000 or coldfire.
