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

hunting for an MSS option to clamp. The previous code assumed that at least
one more byte of options (such as a TCPOPT_EOL) would follow the MSS
option; now, we allow the MSS option to end on the last byte of the
TCP header.
Packets have been observed "in the wild" with a TCP header length of
'6' (24 bytes.. 20 bytes fixed header, 4 bytes options) with a 4-byte
MSS option exactly filling the 4 bytes of options payload and no
following TCPOPT_EOL.
RFC793 is quite explicit that the EOL byte:
" .. need only be used if the end of the options would not
otherwise coincide with the end of the TCP header."
"In rare cases when there is no room for ip options ip_insertoptions()
can fail and corrupt a header length. Initialize len and check what
ip_insertoptions() returns."
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.
