Add support for option "-M", which is used to operate ar(1) in a
script mode like the MRI(Microtec Research Inc.) "librarian" program.
Originally this option is provided by Binutils ar(1) to ease the
transition for developers who are used to writing "librarian" scripts.
We added this option to BSD ar(1) because:
1. Further improve the compatibility with Binutils ar(1).
2. There are still a few software using this -M option. (at least one
in our ports collection)

vattr_null() or by zeroing it. Remove these to allow preinitialization
of fields work in vn_stat(). This is needed to get birthtime initialized
correctly.

MFamd64 SVN rev 179749 CVS rev 1.620
Reverse the direction of pmap_promote_pde()'s traversal over the specified
page table page. The direction of the traversal can matter if
pmap_promote_pde() has to remove write access (PG_RW) from a PTE that
hasn't been modified (PG_M). In general, if there are two or more such
PTEs to choose among, it is better to write protect the one nearer the
high end of the page table page rather than the low end. This is because
most programs access memory in an ascending direction. The net result of
this change is a sometimes significant reduction in the number of failed
promotion attempts and the number of pages that are write protected by
pmap_promote_pde().
MFamd64 SVN rev 179777 CVS rev 1.621
Tweak the promotion test in pmap_promote_pde(). Specifically, test PG_A
before PG_M. This sometimes prevents unnecessary removal of write access
from a PTE. Overall, the net result is fewer demotions and promotion
failures.

Some of the assembly files depend on v9a/v9b-only instructions so
compile these with -mcpu=ultrasparc (which is the hard-coded default
of our system compiler), which allows the remainder of the kernel to
be compiled with "only" -mcpu=v9 for reference and testing purposes.

Use the STICK timers only when absolutely necessary, i.e. if a machine
consists of CPUs running at different speeds, for driving hardclock as
these timers in turn are driven at frequencies as low as 5MHz, resulting
in bad granularity compared to the TICK timers. However, don't employ
the workaround for the BlackBird erratum #1 when using the TICK timer
on machines with cheetah-class CPUs for performance reasons.
Backout rev 183181. It appears that I should have been using boot-device
of "cd:,\\:tbxi" with properly configured boot.tbxi, instead of booting
\boot\loader directly. Rev 183168 could probably stay, since it can be
viewed as an anti-foot-shooting measure and has no impact on normal
operation. I can revert it as well, if anybody objects.

mips_subr.c was in the Juniper code drop, but didn't have any

files.mips file as being standard. Remove it from there until such

pci_setup_intr() will only enable MSI/MSI-X for direct children. Add methods
to vga_pci.c to request on behalf of it's children. This causes vgapci to show
up as the interrupt owner in vmstat -i, rather than the child device.
On PowerPC send output to both "/chosen/stdout" and "screen" nodes, unless
they point to the very same device. This should make loader usable on
some (all?) PowerMacs, where "/chosen/stdout" is disconneted from the
"screen" by the OF init process by default, except when user actually
has requested interaction with OF by holding ALT-CMD-O-F. Along with
rev 183168 this should provide a way to build bootable FreeBSD/ppc
installation or live CD that works OOB. Also, it should bring PowerMac
experience closer to that on other arches.

Even though snp(4) in SVN is still broken, remove the unneeded D_NEEDMINOR.
kib@ and I have decided we will MFC the bpf(4)/snp(4) fixes after we've
released 7.1. Make sure the code in HEAD doesn't refer to a flag we
don't need anyway.
snp(4) in the MPSAFE TTY P4 branch already works, but still needs some
polishing before it can be integrated to SVN.
fix a another driver bug related with tsleep() during detaching that
this also can be happened if we pull the USN stick out forcibly.
Currently the ZyDAS driver uses tsleep() when it try to query a read
command to the device and it'd make a timeout if the device doesn't
response within about 1 sec.
In a case of that the USB stick is gone by hand and the driver's
scanning with changing the channel numbers, the thread which is sleeping
until a command requested is responded can be waked up after all
detaching routines finished that means the zyd softc already freed.
Tring to touch the softc freed by the wakeup thread makes a panic.
So make sure that all sleeping threads should be waken up before the
detach is completed and any other new requests to the device should be
prevented.
When attaching framebuffer to "/chosen/stdout" node fails, try attaching
to "screen" node directly. The problem is that by default OF on some (all?)
Macs either doesn't provide "/chosen/stdout" or redirects it somewhere,
unless you boot in manual mode via CMD-ALT-O-F. It's nice to see normal
FreeBSD boot output instead of blank gray screen.

- Newer firmware versions no longer provide SUNW,stop-self so just
disable interrupts and loop forever with these.
- Hide all MP-related bits in <machine/smp.h> underneath #ifdef SMP.
- Inline ipi_all_but_self(9) and ipi_selected(9). We don't expose any
additional bits but save a few cycles by doing so.
- Remove ipi_all(9), which actually only called panic(9). It can't be
implemented natively anyway and having it removed at least causes
MI users to fail already fail when linking.
Some people have very strange notions of how large KVA_PAGES should be. The
core of this change generalizes the initial page directory setup so that
the kernel can be given arbitrarily large or small.
Remove the suser(9) interface from the kernel. It has been replaced from
years by the priv_check(9) interface and just very few places are left.
Note that compatibility stub with older FreeBSD version
(all above the 8 limit though) are left in order to reduce diffs against
old versions. It is responsibility of the maintainers for any module, if
they think it is the case, to axe out such cases.
This patch breaks KPI so __FreeBSD_version will be bumped into a later
commit.
This patch needs to be credited 50-50 with rwatson@ as he found time to
explain me how the priv_check() works in detail and to review patches.

different version has been committed upstream in the libpcap vendor branch.
This will allow people to experiment with zero-copy bpf(4) without requiring

Note to enable this functionality:
sysctl net.bpf.zerocopy_enable=1
By default, libpcap will use the legacy buffering method unless this sysctl

Add 'device acpi' to GENERIC on i386. Most newer i386 machines require it,
so the benefit of having acpi.ko as a standalone module is outweighed by
the complications of drivers compiled into the kernel not including ACPI
