Don't pretend to be thread0 when calling sync().
It confuses the lock manager since in some places thread0 is
then used for vnode locking while curthread is used for vnode unlocking.

Cause all flags passed by boot2 to set the respective loader(8)
boot_* variable. The end effect is that all flags from boot2
are now passed to the kernel.
Since special interface types get their own subsections
(not in mdoc(7) sense yet) in ifconfig(8) manpage, create such
subsections for gif(4) and vlan(4) so that their specific
options are not mixed up with general options.
Add fi_sx, an sx lock to serialize I/O operations on the socket pair
underlying the POSIX fifo implementation. In 6.x/7.x, fifo access is
moved from the VFS layer, where it was serialized using the vnode
lock, to the file descriptor layer, where access is protected by a
reference count but not serialized. This exposed socket buffer
locking to high levels of parallelism in specific fifo workloads, such
as make -j 32, which expose as yet unresolved socket buffer bugs.
fi_sx re-adds serialization about the read and write routines,
although not paths that simply test socket buffer mbuf queue state,
such as the poll and kqueue methods. This restores the extra locking
cost previously present in some cases, but is an effective workaround
for the instability that has been experienced. This workaround should
be removed once the bug in socket buffer handling has been fixed.

Use the AHC_DISABLE_PCI_PERR flag to silence parity error reporting on
chips where setting the FAILDIS bit is not effective. While here,
try again to make it clear that reported parity errors indicate
a failure of some PCI device *other than* the aic7xxx controller.
Correct bug that caused the completed "recovery" scb to have its
timer reset rather than the timer of an SCB still pending on the
controller after recovery completed. This should correct timeout
loops seen in the field.
Remove the OPTIONS section, since it only documents FE_DEBUG and wrongly
so. If the full list of fe(4) options is documented we can revive the
entire section.
Fix an alignment panic my preserving the 2byte padding (ETHER_ALIGN) on our
copied mbuf, which keeps the IP header 32-bit aligned. This copied mbuf is
reinjected back into ether_input and off to the IP routines.

Temporarily disable nice threshold detection code, as it can starve
a thread holding critical resource, e.g mutex or other implicit
synchronous flags. Give thread which exceeds nice threshold a minimum
time slice.
Split power state control into two variables. hw.pci.do_powerstate
has been removed. It has been replaced by hw.pci.do_power_nodriver
and hw.pci.do_power_resume. The former defaults to 0 while the latter
defaults to 1.
When do_powerstate was set to 0, it broke suspend/resume for a lot of
people as an unintended consequence. This change will only affect the
areas that were intended to affect. This change will have no effect on
servers, but will help laptops quite a bit.
Pass 'curthread' into VFS_STATFS() from acctwatch(), rather than passing
NULL. The NFS client expects that a thread will always be present for a
VOP so that it can check for signal conditions, and will dereference a
NULL pointer if one isn't present.
Make sure we have a bufobj before calling bstrategy().
I'm not sure this is the right thing to do, but at least I don't panic
anymore when swapping on a NFS file without using md(4).
- Understand EADDRINUSE, and forget EDQUOT. [1]
- Add description for EEXIST.
- Change description for ENOBUFS. Routing socket can return
this error for many different reasons, including general
memory shortage, mbuf memory shortage and rtentry zone.
Several fixes to rt_setgate(), that fix problems with route changing:
- Rearrange code so that in a case of failure the affected
route is not changed. Otherwise, a bogus rtentry will be
left and later rt_check() can recurse on its lock. [1]
- Remove comment about protocol cloning.
- Fix two places where rtentry mutex was recursed on, because
accessed via two different pointers, that were actually pointing
to the same rtentry in some cases. [1]
- Return EADDRINUSE instead of bogus EDQUOT, in case when gateway
uses the same route. [2]
In archive_read_open(), do not set the internal archive state to
"HEADER" unless the open is successful. Instead, leave the state as
"NEW." In particular, if archive_read_open() fails, a subsequent call
to archive_read_next_header() will now cause an explicit assertion
failure instead of a silent segmentation fault.
This may need a little more work to fully realize the intention: If
archive_read_open() fails, you should be able to call it again on the
same archive handle to open a different archive (or the same archive
using a different mechanism).
Fix an unaligned I/O memory access in the event that a SCB times out.
The FXP_SCR_FLOWCONTROL registers is at offset 0x19, but 2 bytes wide.
It cannot be read as a word without causing a panic on architectures
that enforce strict alignment.
Check IFF_DRV_RUNNING and presense of packets in queue before calling
em_start_locked(). This fixes panic on shutdown with active traffic
passing through router.
Add a new rc.conf entry, kerberos5_server_flags, which allows the
administrator to specify additional start-up flags to the Kerberos
5 Authentication Server.
Correct an incorrect comment from the dawn of time: neither tprintf()
nor uprintf() is believed to perform tsleep() or msleep() as written,
as ttycheckoutq() is called with '0' as its sleep argument.
Remove recently added WITNESS warnings for sleep as the comment was
incorrect. This should silence a warning from the nfs_timer() code.
Give DEVFS a proper inode called struct cdev_priv. It is important
to keep in mind that this "inode" is shared between all DEVFS
mountpoints, therefore it is protected by the global device mutex.
Link the cdev_priv's into a list, protected by the global device
mutex. Keep track of each cdev_priv's state with a flag bit and
of references from mountpoints with a dedicated usecount.
Reap the benefits of much improved kernel memory allocator and the
generally better defined device driver APIs to get rid of the tables
of pointers + serial numbers, their overflow tables, the atomics
to muck about in them and all the trouble that resulted in.
This makes RAM the only limit on how many devices we can have.
The cdev_priv is actually a super struct containing the normal cdev
as the "public" part, and therefore allocation and freeing has moved
to devfs_devs.c from kern_conf.c.
The overall responsibility is (to be) split such that kern/kern_conf.c
is the stuff that deals with drivers and struct cdev and fs/devfs
handles filesystems and struct cdev_priv and their private liason
exposed only in devfs_int.h.
Move the inode number from cdev to cdev_priv and allocate inode
numbers properly with unr. Local dirents in the mountpoints
(directories, symlinks) allocate inodes from the same pool to
guarantee against overlaps.
Various other fields are going to migrate from cdev to cdev_priv
in the future in order to hide them. A few fields may migrate
from devfs_dirent to cdev_priv as well.
Protect the DEVFS mountpoint with an sx lock instead of lockmgr,
this lock also protects the directory tree of the mountpoint.
Give each mountpoint a unique integer index, allocated with unr.
Use it into an array of devfs_dirent pointers in each cdev_priv.
Initially the array points to a single element also inside cdev_priv,
but as more devfs instances are mounted, the array is extended with
malloc(9) as necessary when the filesystem populates its directory
tree.
Retire the cdev alias lists, the cdev_priv now know about all the
relevant devfs_dirents (and their vnodes) and devfs_revoke() will
pick them up from there. We still spelunk into other mountpoints
and fondle their data without 100% good locking. It may make better
sense to vector the revoke event into the tty code and there do a
destroy_dev/make_dev on the tty's devices, but that's for further
study.
Lots of shuffling of stuff and churn of bits for no good reason[2].
XXX: There is still nothing preventing the dev_clone EVENTHANDLER
from being invoked at the same time in two devfs mountpoints. It
is not obvious what the best course of action is here.
XXX: comment out an if statement that lost its body, until I can
find out what should go there so it doesn't do damage in the meantime.
XXX: Leave in a few extra malloc types and KASSERTS to help track
down any remaining issues.

Use phk's kernel unit number allocator to associate unique ids to neighbors
in an IBSS. Store ids directly into ieee80211_node's instead of managing
our own private association table. Idea and code by Sam Leffler.
When (re)allocating space for an array of pointers to char, use
sizeof(*list), not sizeof(**list). (i.e., sizeof(pointer) rather than
sizeof(char)).
It is possible that this buffer overflow is exploitable, but it was
added after RELENG_5 forked and hasn't been MFCed, so this will not
receive an advisory.
Add GIANT_REQUIRED and WITNESS sleep warnings to uprintf() and tprintf(),
as they both interact with the tty code (!MPSAFE) and may sleep if the
tty buffer is full (per comment).
Modify all consumers of uprintf() and tprintf() to hold Giant around
calls into these functions. In most cases, this means adding an
acquisition of Giant immediately around the function. In some cases
(nfs_timer()), it means acquiring Giant higher up in the callout.
With these changes, UFS no longer panics on SMP when either blocks are
exhausted or inodes are exhausted under load due to races in the tty
code when running without Giant.
NB: Some reduction in calls to uprintf() in the svr4 code is probably
desirable.
NB: In the case of nfs_timer(), calling uprintf() while holding a mutex,
or even in a callout at all, is a bad idea, and will generate warnings
and potential upset. This needs to be fixed, but was a problem before
this change.
NB: uprintf()/tprintf() sleeping is generally a bad ideas, as is having
non-MPSAFE tty code.
Small regression test tool to generate two forms of ENOSPC on a file
system: out of blocks, and out of inodes. Useful for exercising the
uprintf(9) calls in UFS/ext2fs in order to detect races.
