Uses a hook in spec_strategy() to save data written from a mounted
file system to its block device and a hook in dounmount().
Not enabled by default in any kernel config.

correctly, free original instead of incremented pointer, copy results for
n = -2 case too, so top shows correct stats.
Additionaly, rearange code for better readability (from Andrew).
Gone are the old kern_sysctl(), cpu_sysctl(), hw_sysctl(),
vfs_sysctl(), etc, routines, along with sysctl_int() et al. Now all
nodes are registered with the tree, and nodes can be added (or
removed) easily, and I/O to and from the tree is handled generically.
Since the nodes are registered with the tree, the mapping from name to
number (and back again) can now be discovered, instead of having to be
hard coded. Adding new nodes to the tree is likewise much simpler --
the new infrastructure handles almost all the work for simple types,
and just about anything else can be done with a small helper function.
All existing nodes are where they were before (numerically speaking),
so all existing consumers of sysctl information should notice no
difference.
PS - I'm sorry, but there's a distinct lack of documentation at the
moment. I'm working on sysctl(3/8/9) right now, and I promise to
watch out for buses.
so that a specific emulation has the oportunity to filter out some signals.
if sigfilter returns 0, then no signal is sent by kpsignal2().
There is another place where signals can be generated: trapsignal. Since this
function is already an emulation hook, no call to the sigfilter hook was
introduced in trapsignal.
This is needed to emulate the softsignal feature in COMPAT_DARWIN (signals
sent as Mach exception messages)
accepted. However, this time this behavor is not the default. Instead
it must enabled by using the LOCAL_CONNWAIT socket option on either the
connecting or accepting socket.
- always wait for unblocked upcall if we have to continue a blocked
thread.
=> removes wakeup from sys_sa_stacks when a stack is returned.
=> avoids extra sa_unblockyield syscall when unblocked upcall is
delivered before blocked upcall is processed.
=> avoids double pagefault if we continued a thread before the
pagefault was resolved.
=> avoids losing unblocked state if we continued a thread after
skipping the unblocked upcall.
- use splay tree for the pagefault check if the thread was running on
an upcall stack.
=> removes the limitation that all upcall stacks need to be
adjoining and that all upcall stacks have to be loaded with the
1st sys_sa_stacks call.
=> enables keeping information associated with a stack in the kernel
which makes it simpler to find out which LWP is using a stack.
=> allows increasing the SA_MAXNUMSTACKS without having to
allocate an array of that size.
symbols, and made it impossible for the kernel to use that value, and
correctly find symbols from LKMs.
o Allow LKM users to use DDB to debug the entry function of a LKM by
loading the symbol table with the temporary name /lkmtemp/ before calling
it, and then renaming it once we know the module name.

copyin() or copyout().
uvm_useracc() tells us whether the mapping permissions allow access to
the desired part of an address space, and many callers assume that
this is the same as knowing whether an attempt to access that part of
the address space will succeed. however, access to user space can
fail for reasons other than insufficient permission, most notably that
paging in any non-resident data can fail due to i/o errors. most of
the callers of uvm_useracc() make the above incorrect assumption. the
rest are all misguided optimizations, which optimize for the case
where an operation will fail. we'd rather optimize for operations
succeeding, in which case we should just attempt the access and handle
failures due to insufficient permissions the same way we handle i/o
errors. since there appear to be no good uses of uvm_useracc(), we'll
just remove it.
(1) split the single list of pages allocated to a pool into three lists:
completely full, partially full, and completely empty.
there is no longer any need to traverse any list looking for a
certain type of page.
(2) replace the 8-element hash table for out-of-page page headers
with a splay tree.
these two changes (together with the recent enhancements to the wait code)
give us linear scaling for a fork+exit microbenchmark.
mbuf chains which are recycled (e.g., ICMP reflection, loopback
interface). A consensus was reached that such recycled packets should
behave (more-or-less) the same way if a new chain had been allocated
and the contents copied to that chain.
Some packet tags may in future be marked as "persistent" (e.g., for
mandatory access controls) and should persist across such deletion.
NetBSD as yet hos no persistent tags, so m_tag_delete_nonpersistent()
just deletes all tags. This should not be relied upon.
This should fix PR 23418 which was also reported by Thomas Klausner and
Ian Fry (who also provided core dumps for analysis - thanks!).
Also g/c sa_yieldcall since it's now safe to put LWPs back into the cache.
Also return stacks in failure case.
of the sibling list so that find_stopped_child can be optimised to avoid
traversing the entire sibling list - helps when a process has a lot of
children.
- Modify locking in pfind() and pgfind() to that the caller can rely on the
result being valid, allow caller to request that zombies be findable.
- Rename pfind() to p_find() to ensure we break binary compatibility.
- Remove svr4_pfind since p_find willnow do the job.
- Modify some of the SMP locking of the proc lists - signals are still stuffed.

specifically, don't keep a stale pointer in fd_ofiles.
it isn't needed anymore as fd allocation is now done using bitmaps.
- clean up dupfdopen() a little.
- don't call fd_used() unnecessarily.
the not-entered symbols will be found anyway but via a linear-search.
This only happens if something is wrong when linking the kernel.
Fixes problems reported on port-hp700.
Remove p_raslock and rename p_lwplock p_lock (one lock is enough).
Simplify window test when adding a ras and correct test on VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS.
Avoid unpredictable branch in i386 locore.S

combined. Also prepare for adding VP repossession later.
- kern_sa.c: sa_yield/sa_switch: detect if there are pending unblocked
upcalls.
- kern_sa.c: sa_unblock_userret/sa_setwoken: queue LWPs about to invoke
an unblocked upcall on the sa_wokenq. put queued LWPs in a state where
they can be put in the cache. notify LWP on the VP about pending
upcalls.
- kern_sa.c: sa_upcall_userret: check sa_wokenq for pending upcalls,
generate unblocked upcalls with multiple event sas
- kern_sa.c: sa_vp_repossess/sa_vp_donate: g/c, restore original
sa_vp_repossess
General idea: only consider the LWP on the VP for signal delivery, all
other LWPs are either asleep or running from waking up until repossessing
the VP.
- in kern_sig.c:kpsignal2: handle all states the LWP on the VP can be in
- in kern_sig.c:proc_stop: only try to stop the LWP on the VP. All other
LWPs will suspend in sa_vp_repossess() until the VP-LWP donates the VP.
Restore original behaviour (before SA-specific hacks were added) for
non-SA processes.
- in kern_sig.c:proc_unstop: only return the LWP on the VP
- handle sa_yield as case 0 in sa_switch instead of clearing L_SA, add an
L_SA_YIELD flag
- replace sa_idle by L_SA_IDLE flag since it was either NULL or == sa_vp
Also don't output itimerfire overrun warning if the process is already
exiting.
Also g/c sa_woken because it's not used.
Also g/c some #if 0 code.
we pass via sigctx, so that it guaranteed that the memory wouldn't be
paged out at the time the signal arrives

generate unblocked upcalls in sa_unblock_userret(), before signal
delivery/p_userret handling in userret().
Also defer getting state for preempted upcalls because on some ports
preemption can happen between sa_unblock_userret() and sa_upcall_userret().
its state is saved:
- don't sa_putcachelwp() in sa_vp_repossess/sa_vp_donate
- only defer saving the event LWP's state
- sa_putcachelwp() after the interrupted LWP's state is saved
-obey ELF_LINK_ADDR in ELF_load_file()
-set ELF_LINK_ADDR in the probe() function if needed
-make ELF_NULL_ADDR the default, so that probe() functions dont need

-allocate buffer for interpreter name only if needed
initialized. Update the txp(4) to compensate.
- Statically initialize the TCP timer callout handles in the tcpcb
template. We still use callout_setfunc(), but that call is now much
less expensive. Add a comment that the compiler is likely to unroll
the loop (so don't sweat that it's there).
