command line option "-m <memsize in MB>" to specify the memory size.
Prior to this change the user needed to explicitly specify the amount of
memory allocated below 4G (-m <lowmem>) and the amount above 4G (-M <highmem>).
The "-M" option is no longer supported by 'bhyveload' and 'bhyve'.
The start of the PCI hole is fixed at 3GB and cannot be directly changed
using command line options. However it is still possible to change this in
special circumstances via the 'vm_set_lowmem_limit()' API provided by
libvmmapi.

These set of ranges will be looked at if a standard memory
range isn't found, and won't be installed in the cache.
Use this to implement the memory behaviour of the PCI hole on
x86 systems, where writes are ignored and reads always return -1.
This allows breakpoints to be set when issuing a 'boot -d', which
has the side effect of accessing the PCI hole when changing the
PTE protection on kernel code, since the pmap layer hasn't been
initialized (a bug, but present in existing FreeBSD releases so
has to be handled).

devices are MSI-X capable. This in turn would lead it to treat bar 0 as
the MSI-X table bar even if the underlying device did not support MSI-X.
Fix this by providing an API to query the MSI-X table index of the emulated
device. If the underlying device does not support MSI-X then this API will
return -1.

The current behavior of advertising a single MSI vector can be requested by
setting the environment variable "BHYVE_USE_MSI" to "true". The use of MSI
is not compliant with the virtio specification and will be eventually phased
out.

bhyve is intended to be a generic hypervisor, and not FreeBSD-specific.

Firmware tables require too much knowledge of system configuration,
and it's difficult to pass that information in general terms to a library.
The upcoming ACPI work exposed this - it will also livein bhyve.
Also, remove code specific to NetApp from the mptable name, and remove
the -n option from bhyve.

32-bit bar as long as it was allocated from the region below 4GB.
This had the potential to confuse some drivers that were particular about
the size of the bars.

The syntax is:
-s <slotnum>,uart[,stdio]
The stdio parameter instructs the code to perform i/o using
stdin/stdout. It can only be used for one instance.
To allow legacy i/o ports/irqs to be used, a new variant of
the slot command, -S, is introduced. When used to specify a
slot, the device will use legacy resources if it supports
them; otherwise it will be treated the same as the '-s' option.
Specifying the -S option with the uart will first use the 0x3f8/irq 4
config, and the second -S will use 0x2F8/irq 3.
Interrupt delivery is awaiting the arrival of the i/o apic code,
but this works fine in uart(4)'s polled mode.
This code was written by Cynthia Lu @ MIT while an intern at NetApp,
with further work from neel@ and grehan@.
