about spaces and tabs.
The externs in the static inline functions remain 'cause (a) they're
required; and (b) I can't find any gcc -W* cases where they generate
warnings.
data is greater than MLEN, setsockopt is unable to pass it onto
the protocol handler. Allocate a cluster in such case.

is a tremendous perf decrease due to the disabling of advanced
features such as DMA, Ultra DMA, and 32bit mode. This patch
might have been reported by someone else (I seem to remember
it.)
kernal page table may need to be extended. But while growing the
kernel page table (pmap_growkernel()), newly allocated kernel page
table pages are entered into every process' page directory. For
proc0, the page directory is not allocated yet, and results in a
page fault. Eventually, the machine panics with "lockmgr: not
holding exclusive lock".

it was. Add a FILE_WAIT state and queue threads waiting for a FILE
lock. Start using the sys/queue.h macros instead of the way that MIT
pthreads did it.
Add a thread name to the private thread structure and a non-POSIX
function to set this. This helps (me at least) when sending a SIGINFO
to a threaded process to get a /tmp/uthread.dump to see what the
<expletive deleted> threads are doing this time. It is nice to be
able to recognise (yes, I spell that with an 's' too) which threads
are which.
Change the FILE locking to support kernel threads when linked with
libpthread (which you haven't see yet). This requires that libc become
thread-safe and thread-aware, testing __isthreaded before attempting
to do lock/unlock calls. The impact on non-threaded programs is minor.
This change works with libc_r, so it's the best compromise.
test for __isthreaded before calling the lock/unlock functions to
try to save some performance. The _THREAD_SAFE case should become the
default, but since it tests for a global variable in libc, people won't
be able to build -current on pre-3.0 systems unless the default leaves
it out. Such is life.
libc to determine if locking is required. This is needed in libc
for use with kernel threads, but until a thread is created, we don't
really want to bother locking things. The variable was added here
because the crt code calls exit(main()) so all programs will get the
variable.
magic number byte ordering for FreeBSD. This makes "file" describe
our object files as "FreeBSD/i386 object" instead of as NetBSD
object files. In case this seems drastic and risky, Bruce points
out that the "ld -r -x" step that is done on every object file when
building libraries fixes the byte ordering in the same way. I have
been running with this patch for over a month and have seen no
problems.
Use config flags 0x1000 to enable LBA mode. It should be enabled in
the BIOS too to avoid geometry confusion.
One catch though, I'm not sure all BIOS's uses the 64head/63secs
translation, all mine does but....
