lists only help to make them harder to read.
If those sections are found in inputs, they simply appear in outputs as
orphaned sections, sorted by section types and attributes.
config(1)/config(5) can't handle module dependency correctly at this
moment.
(This is another proof that shared file definition (`file xxx.c a|b')
is a bad idea.)
- Reorganize locking in UVM and provide extra serialisation for pmap(9).
New lock order: [vmpage-owner-lock] -> pmap-lock.
- Simplify locking in some pmap(9) modules by removing P->V locking.
- Use lock object on vmobjlock (and thus vnode_t::v_interlock) to share
the locks amongst UVM objects where necessary (tmpfs, layerfs, unionfs).
- Rewrite and optimise x86 TLB shootdown code, make it simpler and cleaner.
Add TLBSTATS option for x86 to collect statistics about TLB shootdowns.
- Unify /dev/mem et al in MI code and provide required locking (removes
kernel-lock on some ports). Also, avoid cache-aliasing issues.
Thanks to Andrew Doran and Joerg Sonnenberger, as their initial patches
formed the core changes of this branch.
- renamed to MEMORY_DISK_RBFLAGS to better fit the rest of the
MEMORY_DISK options(4)
- change default value to RB_AUTOBOOT instead of RB_SINGLE, and adapt
the config(5) files accordingly
- document this option inside options(4)

Reviewed by abs@ in private mail.
Make all the kernels that currently include their corresponding GENERIC.local
file use the cinclude directive instead of include. This way config(1) will
not complain if the file cannot be found.
After doing this, remove the GENERIC.local files from the repository so that
the user will not see modified files during updates, and local changes to
them cannot end up in the repository by mistake.
Discussed in tech-kern@ earlier this month. No strong objections.
This branch was a major cleanup and rototill of many of the various OEA
cpu based PPC ports that focused on sharing as much code as possible
between the various ports to eliminate near-identical copies of files in
every tree. Additionally there is a new PIC system that unifies the
interface to interrupt code for all different OEA ppc arches. The work
for this branch was done by a variety of people, too long to list here.
TODO:
bebox still needs work to complete the transition to -renovation.
ofppc still needs a bunch of work, which I will be looking at.
ev64260 still needs to be renovated
amigappc was not attempted.
NOTES:
pmppc was removed as an arch, and moved to a evbppc target.
with new kern/kern_cctr.c in TODO comments
- also replace struct cc_microtime_state member in struct cpu_info
with struct cctr_state defined in <sys/cctr.h>, which is unused yet
in this port

NetBSD/i386 and NetBSD/amd64 were used as templates,
along with my own additions.
