This makes simple lock work on big-endian platforms.
- Assembly-level optimization of __cpu_simple_lock_try().

possible to use alternate system call tables. This is usefull for
displaying correctly the arguments in Mach binaries traces.
If NULL is given, then the regular systam call table for the process is used.
original system call number, which can be negative for a Mach trap.
We cannot just replace code by realcode, because ktrsyscall uses it as
an index in the system call table, thus crashing the kernel when the
value is negative.
If the VPN / PPN are not aligned to page boundary (the page size
is set by SZ bits in data array 1, which are random when power-up time),
unexpected exception occurs in some rare case, it seems....
Initialize SZ to zero (1KB page). Also, clear VPN / PPN to zero just in case.
Make __sh4_itlb_invalidate_all() static.
kqueue provides a stateful and efficient event notification framework
currently supported events include socket, file, directory, fifo,
pipe, tty and device changes, and monitoring of processes and signals
kqueue is supported by all writable filesystems in NetBSD tree
(with exception of Coda) and all device drivers supporting poll(2)
based on work done by Jonathan Lemon for FreeBSD
initial NetBSD port done by Luke Mewburn and Jason Thorpe
This merge changes the device switch tables from static array to
dynamically generated by config(8).
- All device switches is defined as a constant structure in device drivers.
- The new grammer ``device-major'' is introduced to ``files''.
device-major <prefix> char <num> [block <num>] [<rules>]
- All device major numbers must be listed up in port dependent majors.<arch>
by using this grammer.
- Added the new naming convention.
The name of the device switch must be <prefix>_[bc]devsw for auto-generation
of device switch tables.
- The backward compatibility of loading block/character device
switch by LKM framework is broken. This is necessary to convert
from block/character device major to device name in runtime and vice versa.
- The restriction to assign device major by LKM is completely removed.
We don't need to reserve LKM entries for dynamic loading of device switch.
- In compile time, device major numbers list is packed into the kernel and
the LKM framework will refer it to assign device major number dynamically.
counters. These counters do not exist on all CPUs, but where they
do exist, can be used for counting events such as dcache misses that
would otherwise be difficult or impossible to instrument by code
inspection or hardware simulation.
pmc(9) is meant to be a general interface. Initially, the Intel XScale
counters are the only ones supported.
- By default, use disklabels in the native endian.
- With options BSDDISKLABEL_EI, kernels can read/write labels
in the opposite endian.
- With options COMPAT_MMEYE_OLDLABEL, kernels accept labels
in format used on old mmeyes.
(Some old mmeyes have "the bootstrap kernel to load kernel from disks"
on their flash ROMs and it is not easy to update kernels on the ROMs.)
- While here, use leXXtoh() to read some values in MBR.
* struct sigacts gets a new sigact_sigdesc structure, which has the
sigaction and the trampoline/version. Version 0 means "legacy kernel
provided trampoline". Other versions are coordinated with machine-
dependent code in libc.
* sigaction1() grows two more arguments -- the trampoline pointer and
the trampoline version.
* A new __sigaction_sigtramp() system call is provided to register a
trampoline along with a signal handler.
* The handler is no longer passed to sensig() functions. Instead,
sendsig() looks up the handler by peeking in the sigacts for the
process getting the signal (since it has to look in there for the
trampoline anyway).
* Native sendsig() functions now select the appropriate trampoline and
its arguments based on the trampoline version in the sigacts.
Changes to libc to use the new facility will be checked in later. Kernel
version not bumped; we will ride the 1.6C bump made recently.
