namely uuidgen(1), uuidgen(2) and uuid(3), the following division
has been choosen:
	uuidgen(1)	A description of the command line utility,
			and other user oriented UUID information.
	uuidgen(2)	A mostly technical description of UUIDs.
	uuid(3)		A description of the functions and other
			programmer oriented UUID information.

According to the division: add more technical contents.

52183d0145 Add uuidgen(2) and uuidgen(1). 
The uuidgen command, by means of the uuidgen syscall, generates one
or more Universally Unique Identifiers compatible with OSF/DCE 1.1
version 1 UUIDs.

From the Perforce logs (change 11995):

Round of cleanups:
o  Give uuidgen() the correct prototype in syscalls.master
o  Define struct uuid according to DCE 1.1 in sys/uuid.h
o  Use struct uuid instead of uuid_t. The latter is defined
   in sys/uuid.h but should not be used in kernel land.
o  Add snprintf_uuid(), printf_uuid() and sbuf_printf_uuid()
   to kern_uuid.c for use in the kernel (currently geom_gpt.c).
o  Rename the non-standard struct uuid in kern/kern_uuid.c
   to struct uuid_private and give it a slightly better definition
   for better byte-order handling. See below.
o  In sys/gpt.h, fix the broken uuid definitions to match the now
   compliant struct uuid definition. See below.
o  In usr.bin/uuidgen/uuidgen.c catch up with struct uuid change.

A note about byte-order:
        The standard failed to provide a non-conflicting and
unambiguous definition for the binary representation. My initial
implementation always wrote the timestamp as a 64-bit little-endian
(2s-complement) integral. The clock sequence was always written
as a 16-bit big-endian (2s-complement) integral. After a good
nights sleep and couple of Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters (not
necessarily in that order :-) I reread the spec and came to the
conclusion that the time fields are always written in the native
by order, provided the the low, mid and hi chopping still occurs.
The spec mentions that you "might need to swap bytes if you talk
to a machine that has a different byte-order". The clock sequence
is always written in big-endian order (as is the IEEE 802 address)
because its division is resulting in bytes, making the ordering
unambiguous.

98d1592458 Change brk's prototype from char *brk(const char *) to int brk(const void *) 
and sbrk's prototype from char *sbrk(int) to void *sbrk(intptr_t).

This makes us more consistant with NetBSD and standards which include
these functions. Bruce pointed out that ptrdiff_t would probably
have been better than intptr_t, but this doesn't match other
implimentations.

Also remove local declarations of sbrk and unnecessary casting.

ac8f990bde This patch implements O_DIRECT about 80% of the way. It takes a patchset 
Tor created a while ago, removes the raw I/O piece (that has cache coherency
problems), and adds a buffer cache / VM freeing piece.

Essentially this patch causes O_DIRECT I/O to not be left in the cache, but
does not prevent it from going through the cache, hence the 80%.  For
the last 20% we need a method by which the I/O can be issued directly to
buffer supplied by the user process and bypass the buffer cache entirely,
but still maintain cache coherency.

I also have the code working under -stable but the changes made to sys/file.h
may not be MFCable, so an MFC is not on the table yet.

c37592a194 Clean up syscall generation in libc by removing HIDDEN_SYSCALLS 
and treating (almost) all system calls the same way:

	__sys_foo - actual syscall
	foo, _foo - weak definitions to __sys_foo

be __sys_foo (T) and _foo (W).

d201fe46e3 Remove _THREAD_SAFE and make libc thread-safe by default by 
adding (weak definitions to) stubs for some of the pthread
functions.  If the threads library is linked in, the real
pthread functions will pulled in.

Use the following convention for system calls wrapped by the
threads library:
	__sys_foo - actual system call
	_foo - weak definition to __sys_foo
	foo - weak definition to __sys_foo

Change all libc uses of system calls wrapped by the threads
library from foo to _foo.  In order to define the prototypes
for _foo(), we introduce namespace.h and un-namespace.h
(suggested by bde).  All files that need to reference these
system calls, should include namespace.h before any standard
includes, then include un-namespace.h after the standard
includes and before any local includes.  <db.h> is an exception
and shouldn't be included in between namespace.h and
un-namespace.h  namespace.h will define foo to _foo, and
un-namespace.h will undefine foo.

Try to eliminate some of the recursive calls to MT-safe
functions in libc/stdio in preparation for adding a mutex
to FILE.  We have recursive mutexes, but would like to avoid
using them if possible.

Remove uneeded includes of <errno.h> from a few files.

Add $FreeBSD$ to a few files in order to pass commitprep.

1f6889a1eb Fix null-pointer dereference crash when the system is intentionally 
run out of KVM through a mmap()/fork() bomb that allocates hundreds
    of thousands of vm_map_entry structures.

    Add panic to make null-pointer dereference crash a little more verbose.

    Add a new sysctl, vm.max_proc_mmap, which specifies the maximum number
    of mmap()'d spaces (discrete vm_map_entry's in the process).  The value
    defaults to around 9000 for a 128MB machine.  The test is scaled for the
    number of processes sharing a vmspace (aka linux threads).  Setting
    the value to 0 disables the feature.

4f79d873c1 Add MAP_NOSYNC feature to mmap(), and MADV_NOSYNC and MADV_AUTOSYNC to 
madvise().

    This feature prevents the update daemon from gratuitously flushing
    dirty pages associated with a mapped file-backed region of memory.  The
    system pager will still page the memory as necessary and the VM system
    will still be fully coherent with the filesystem.  Modifications made
    by other means to the same area of memory, for example by write(), are
    unaffected.  The feature works on a page-granularity basis.

    MAP_NOSYNC allows one to use mmap() to share memory between processes
    without incuring any significant filesystem overhead, putting it in
    the same performance category as SysV Shared memory and anonymous memory.
