use to determine how long page faults take. The new ktrace records are
enabled via the 'p' trace type, and are enabled in the default set of
trace points.

internal sysctl_sysctl_name() handler to map the MIB array to a string
name and logs this name in the trace log. This can be useful to see
exactly which sysctls a thread is invoking.

consists of the null-terminated name and the contents of any structure
you wish to record. A new ktrstruct() function constructs and emits a
KTR_STRUCT record. It is accompanied by convenience macros for struct
stat and struct sockaddr.
In kdump(1), KTR_STRUCT records are handled by a dispatcher function
that runs stringent sanity checks on its contents before handing it
over to individual decoding funtions for each type of structure.
Currently supported structures are struct stat and struct sockaddr for
the AF_INET, AF_INET6 and AF_UNIX families; support for AF_APPLETALK
and AF_IPX is present but disabled, as I am unable to test it properly.
Since 's' was already taken, the letter 't' is used by ktrace(1) to
enable KTR_STRUCT trace points, and in kdump(1) to enable their
decoding.

field holding the threadid. This is more useful for libthr than
libpthread, but still quite useful in libpthread as it can be used to
process interlaced records from multiple threads over the course of a
system call.
Detect old ktr_buffer values using the heuristic "if it's negative,
then it must not be a valid threadid". This may leave something to be
desired.

- sort the -E switch into the right place.
- add previously missing -p pid in usage (from the last few commits).
- add -E to usage.
- consistently use trfile in the man page.
I knew I shouldn't have touched the man page. If I commit to a man page,
it just makes people suspicious. :-)
1) add a "-p pid", which is rather useful for selecting a single pid in
a combined trace file (eg: with ktrace -i).
2) display binary genio data in a more precise format.
