- struct timeval time is gone
time.tv_sec -> time_second
- struct timeval mono_time is gone
mono_time.tv_sec -> time_uptime
- access to time via
{get,}{micro,nano,bin}time()
get* versions are fast but less precise
- support NTP nanokernel implementation (NTP API 4)

- don't use managed mappings/backing objects for wired memory allocations.
save some resources like pv_entry. also fix (most of) PR/27030.
- simplify kernel memory management API.
- simplify pmap bootstrap of some ports.
- some related cleanups.
separately from the bufpages, so that it would be possible to eventually
make their limits changeable in runtime
make static all local variables which do not need to be exported to other
kernel parts
"KERN_SYSVIPC_SEM_INFO" and "KERN_SYSVIPC_SHM_INFO" to return the
info and data structures for the relevent SysV IPC types. The return
structures use fixed-size types and should be compat32 safe. All
user-visible changes are protected with
#if !defined(_POSIX_C_SOURCE) && !defined(_XOPEN_SOURCE)
Make all variable declarations extern in msg.h, sem.h and shm.h and
add relevent variable declarations to sysv_*.c and remove unneeded
header files from those .c files.
Make compat14 SysV IPC conversion functions and sysctl_file() static.
Change the data pointer to "void *" in sysctl_clockrate(),
sysctl_ntptime(), sysctl_file() and sysctl_doeproc().
by the Single UNIX Specification version 2, rather than the SVR2-derived
types. While I was here, I did a namespace sweep to expose the constants
and strucutures, and structure members described by SUSv2; documentation
updates coming shortly.
Fixes kern/8158.
