not included in a kernel without procfs, and it seems wrong to pull
all of procfs_subr.c in for just that one function. Perhaps this
should go into a new file instead?
FreeBSD by Sean Eric Fagan, but a bit different. This makes the checks
in the same places as sef's FreeBSD patch, but does not hardcode the
"kmem" group into the kernel, and also does a check identical to the
(3) and (4) checks in the NetBSD ptrace(2):
(1) it's not owned by you, or is set-id on exec (unless
you're root), or
(2) it's init, which controls the security level of the
entire system, and the system was not compiled with
permanently insecure mode turned on.
-Separate KGDB port initialization and softc related stuff to allow
KGDB to be attached in early system startup, before autoconfiguration.
-Export the variables needed by md code to hand-craft bus tag/handle.
-Fix initialization to enable interrupt by line break.
-Call DDB/KGDB at line break (move DDB call from the softirq handler
to the hard handler because it should work without a tty attached too).
-i no longer implies -u, -i now does not use the entire first track
because some BIOSes refuse to boot from a partition in the first track.
-s renamed to -S, new -s for non-interactive setting of a partition's
id, offset and size. Updated documentation to match.
Compute CPU speed(MHz) and loop multiplier for DELAY() based on
counting empty loop between mcclock ticks. New global: cpu_mhz.
Change pmax/pmax/machdep.c to build baseboard model names from cpu_mhz.
Set 'cpuspeed' for more realistic DELAY() on mips3 models.

* prototype and definition for pmap_activate(p). Updates the segtab,
and changes the active ASID if p == curproc.
* Make reserved fixed-address (UADDR) kernelstack PTEs global,
so we still have a kernel stack after pmap_activate() on curproc.
* make KSEG2 mappings for p_addr global (see above.)
Seems to detune contextswitch and NTP resolution (by 60 ms), but
thepmap_activate() interface is mandatory. Needs more thought.
