IPI_STOP IPIs.
- Change the i386 and amd64 MD IPI code to send an NMI if STOP_NMI is
enabled if an attempt is made to send an IPI_STOP IPI. If the kernel
option is enabled, there is also a sysctl to change the behavior at
runtime (debug.stop_cpus_with_nmi which defaults to enabled). This
includes removing stop_cpus_nmi() and making ipi_nmi_selected() a
private function for i386 and amd64.
- Fix ipi_all(), ipi_all_but_self(), and ipi_self() on i386 and amd64 to
properly handle bitmapped IPIs as well as IPI_STOP IPIs when STOP_NMI is
enabled.
- Fix ipi_nmi_handler() to execute the restart function on the first CPU
that is restarted making use of atomic_readandclear() rather than
assuming that the BSP is always included in the set of restarted CPUs.
Also, the NMI handler didn't clear the function pointer meaning that
subsequent stop and restarts could execute the function again.
- Define a new macro HAVE_STOPPEDPCBS on i386 and amd64 to control the use
of stoppedpcbs[] and always enable it for i386 and amd64 instead of
being dependent on KDB_STOP_NMI. It works fine in both the NMI and
non-NMI cases.
originally wrote it for 4.x and hasn't really had the time to fully update
it to 5.x and later. Also, the author doesn't use the hardware anymore as
well. If someone does need this driver they can always resurrect it from
the Attic.

changes in MD code are trivial, before this change, trapsignal and
sendsig use discrete parameters, now they uses member fields of
ksiginfo_t structure. For sendsig, this change allows us to pass
POSIX realtime signal value to user code.
2. Remove cpu_thread_siginfo, it is no longer needed because we now always
generate ksiginfo_t data and feed it to libpthread.
3. Add p_sigqueue to proc structure to hold shared signals which were
blocked by all threads in the proc.
4. Add td_sigqueue to thread structure to hold all signals delivered to
thread.
5. i386 and amd64 now return POSIX standard si_code, other arches will
be fixed.
6. In this sigqueue implementation, pending signal set is kept as before,
an extra siginfo list holds additional siginfo_t data for signals.
kernel code uses psignal() still behavior as before, it won't be failed
even under memory pressure, only exception is when deleting a signal,
we should call sigqueue_delete to remove signal from sigqueue but
not SIGDELSET. Current there is no kernel code will deliver a signal
with additional data, so kernel should be as stable as before,
a ksiginfo can carry more information, for example, allow signal to
be delivered but throw away siginfo data if memory is not enough.
SIGKILL and SIGSTOP have fast path in sigqueue_add, because they can
not be caught or masked.
The sigqueue() syscall allows user code to queue a signal to target
process, if resource is unavailable, EAGAIN will be returned as
specification said.
Just before thread exits, signal queue memory will be freed by
sigqueue_flush.
Current, all signals are allowed to be queued, not only realtime signals.

about MAC and get more people interested.

- Make sure timer0_max_count is set to a correct value in the lapic case.
- Revert i8254_restore() to explicitly reprogram timer 0 rather than
calling set_timer_freq() to do it. set_timer_freq() only reprograms
the counter if the max count changes which it never does on resume. This
unbreaks suspend/resume for several people.

as they are already default for I686_CPU for almost 3 years, and
CPU_DISABLE_SSE always disables it. On the other hand, CPU_ENABLE_SSE
does not work for I486_CPU and I586_CPU.
This commit has:
- Removed the option from conf/options.*
- Removed the option and comments from MD NOTES files
- Simplified the CPU_ENABLE_SSE ifdef's so they don't
deal with CPU_ENABLE_SSE from kernel configuration. (*)
For most users, this commit should be largely no-op. If you used to
place CPU_ENABLE_SSE into your kernel configuration for some reason,
it is time to remove it.
(*) The ifdef's of CPU_ENABLE_SSE are not removed at this point, since
we need to change it to !defined(CPU_DISABLE_SSE) && defined(I686_CPU),
not just !defined(CPU_DISABLE_SSE), if we really want to do so.

critical_enter() and critical_exit() are now solely a mechanism for
deferring kernel preemptions. They no longer have any affect on
interrupts. This means that standalone critical sections are now very
cheap as they are simply unlocked integer increments and decrements for the
common case.
Spin mutexes now use a separate KPI implemented in MD code: spinlock_enter()
and spinlock_exit(). This KPI is responsible for providing whatever MD
guarantees are needed to ensure that a thread holding a spin lock won't
be preempted by any other code that will try to lock the same lock. For
now all archs continue to block interrupts in a "spinlock section" as they
did formerly in all critical sections. Note that I've also taken this
opportunity to push a few things into MD code rather than MI. For example,
critical_fork_exit() no longer exists. Instead, MD code ensures that new
threads have the correct state when they are created. Also, we no longer
try to fixup the idlethreads for APs in MI code. Instead, each arch sets
the initial curthread and adjusts the state of the idle thread it borrows
in order to perform the initial context switch.
This change is largely a big NOP, but the cleaner separation it provides
will allow for more efficient alternative locking schemes in other parts
of the kernel (bare critical sections rather than per-CPU spin mutexes
for per-CPU data for example).
