the change constitutes binary compatibility issue hen sizeof(long) !=4.
there's no way to be backward compatible, and only guys affected
are IPv6 userland tools.

amount of physical memory, divide it by 4, and then allow machine
dependent code to place upper and lower bounds on the size. Export
the computed value to userspace via the new "vm.nkmempages" sysctl.
NKMEMCLUSTERS is now deprecated and will generate an error if you
attempt to use it. The new option, should you choose to use it,
is called NKMEMPAGES, and two new options NKMEMPAGES_MIN and
NKMEMPAGES_MAX allow the user to configure the bounds in the kernel
config file.
1) fix typo preventing compilation (missing comma).
2) in SLOCK_WHERE, display cpu number in the MP case.
3) the folowing race condition was observed in _simple_lock:
cpu 1 releases lock,
cpu 0 grabs lock
cpu 1 sees it's already locked.
cpu 1 sees that lock_holder== "cpu 1"
cpu 1 assumes that it already holds it and barfs.
cpu 0 sets lock_holder == "cpu 0"
Fix: set lock_holder to LK_NOCPU in _simple_unlock().
cause a core to drop, and whether the core dropped, or, if it did
not, why not (i.e. error number). Logs process ID, name, signal that
hit it, and whether the core dump was successful.
logging only happens if kern_logsigexit is non-zero, and it can be
changed by the new sysctl(3) value KERN_LOGSIGEXIT. The name of this
sysctl and its function are taken from FreeBSD, at the suggestion
of Greg Woods in PR 6224. Default behavior is zero for a normal
kernel, and one for a kernel compiled with DIAGNOSTIC.
to go to the inversion list is incomplete. If the cylinders are equal
block numbers must be checked.
This caused lockups if some buffers with the same cylinder were cycling
through the list, as it may happen with softdep enabled.
Fixes PR #9197.
- If RB_ASKNAME, only dumpdv holds the results asked interactively.
Examie dumpspec only when !RB_ASKNAME. This allows us to override
dumps on none in kernel config file by booting kernel with RB_ASKNAME.
- Slightly rearrange code so that it more matches to comment.
execute certain functions when a process does an exec(). Currently
uses a global list. Could possibly be done using a per-process list,
but this needs more thought.
until all device driver discovery threads have had a chance to do their
work. This in turn blocks initproc's exec of init(8) until root is
mounted and process start times and CWD info has been fixed up.
Addresses kern/9247.
The rule is that you don't get to call scheduler-related functions (e.g.
wakeup()) above the clock interrupt. Going to statclock unnecessarily
hoses e.g. serial interrupts on the SPARC.
be issued/completed in order; that is, provide a barrier for I/O queues.
- Change the buffer driver queue links to a TAILQ, rather than using
a home-grown equivalent. Provide BUFQ_*() macros to manipulate buffer
queues; these deal with the barrier provided by B_ORDERED.
- Update disksort() accordingly, and provide 3 versions:
- disksort_cylinder(): historical disksort(), which keys on
b_cylinder (and b_blkno for the case when b_cylinder matches).
- disksort_blkno(): sorts only on b_blkno. Essentially the
same as disksort_cylinder(), but with fewer comparisons.
- disksort_tail(): requests are simply inserted into the queue
at the tail. This is provided as an option so that drivers
can simply have a pointer to the appropriate sort function.
Note that disksort() now pays attention to B_ORDERED.
