hpcmips defines one in MD majors, but it's not listed in
etc/etc.hpcmips/MAKEDEV.conf, so I assume actual files are never
created in users' filesystems.

- Designed to be fully MP-safe and highly efficient.
- Tables/IP sets (hash or red-black tree) for high performance lookups.
- Stateful filtering and Network Address Port Translation (NAPT).
Framework for application level gateways (ALGs).
- Packet inspection engine called n-code processor - inspired by BPF -
supporting generic RISC-like and specific CISC-like instructions for
common patterns (e.g. IPv4 address matching). See npf_ncode(9) manual.
- Convenient userland utility npfctl(8) with npf.conf(8).
NOTE: This is not yet a fully capable alternative to PF or IPFilter.
Further work (support for binat/rdr, return-rst/return-icmp, common ALGs,
state saving/restoring, logging, etc) is in progress.
Thanks a lot to Matt Thomas for various useful comments and code review.

kernconfig_mutex. Update module subsystem to use this mutex rather than
its own internal (non-recursive) mutex. Make module_autoload() do its
own locking to be consistent with the rest of the module_xxx() calls.
Update module(9) man page appropriately.
As discussed on tech-kern over the last few weeks.
Welcome to NetBSD 5.99.39 !
at boot.
Add a ksyms_mod_foreach() function to iterate a callback function over the
set of elf symbols for a specific module (netbsd included).
Add kern_ctf.c and mod_ctf_get() to allow the retrieval and decompression
of CTF sections for a specific module.
especially on RTL8019AS which is also used for non-ISA local bus of
embedded controllers and some m68k machines like atari and x68k.
* move RTL8019 probe and attach code from each bus attachment
to MI ne2000_detect() and ne2000_attach()
* change a method for backend and attachment to specify 8 bit mode
to use a new sc->sc_quirk member, instead of sc->sc_dmawidth
* handle more NE2000 8 bit mode specific settings, including
bus_space(9) access width and available size of buffer memory
* add a function to detect NE2000 8 bit mode
(disabled by default, but enalbed by options NE2000_DETECT_8BIT
to avoid possible regression on various ISA clones)
* fix ipkdb attachment accordingly (untested)
Tested on two NE2000 ISA variants (RTL8019AS and another clone named UL0001)
in both 8 bit and 16 bit mode on i386. "Looks good" from nonaka@.
See my post on tech-kern for details:

on the amount of physical memory and limited by NMBCLUSTERS if present.
Architectures without direct mapping also limit it based on the kmem_map
size, which is used as backing store. On i386 and ARM, the maximum KVA
used for mbuf clusters is limited to 64MB by default.
The old default limits and limits based on GATEWAY have been removed.
key_registered_sb_max is hard-wired to a value derived from 2048
clusters.
into subr_device.c instead of having them in subr_autoconf.c.
Since none of the copyrights in subr_autoconf.c really match the
history of device accessors, I took the liberty of slapping (c)
2006 TNF onto subr_device.c.
#if NBPFILTER is no longer required in the client. This change
doesn't yet add support for loading bpf as a module, since drivers
can register before bpf is attached. However, callers of bpf can
now be modularized.
Dynamically loadable bpf could probably be done fairly easily with
coordination from the stub driver and the real driver by registering
attachments in the stub before the real driver is loaded and doing
a handoff. ... and I'm not going to ponder the depths of unload
here.
Tested with i386/MONOLITHIC, modified MONOLITHIC without bpf and rump.
for the patches!
I've lightly tested the basics: create cgd0 on vnd0d, initialize with
zeros, newfs /dev/cgd0a, mount, copy files on, unmount, drvctl -d
cgd0. Works fine. I also shutdown with a cgd0 configured: detached as
expected.
support, i.e. move vfs functionality to a separate module
(kern_module_vfs.c)
* make module proplist size an MI constant (now 8k) instead of PAGE_SIZE
* change some error values to something else than the karmic EINVAL
