went backwards when interrupts were masked for more than one i8254
interrupt period. It sometimes went backwards when the i8254 counter
was reprogrammed. Neither of these should happen in normal operation.
Update the i8254 timecounter support variables atomically. Calling
timecounter functions from fast interrupt handlers may actually work
in all cases now.
macro for ELF. Ian@cygnus.com says that is the proper way to use
the ".gnu.warning.SYMBOL" sections. However, he has accepted Doug
Rabson's BFD patch anyway.
Our spinlock implementation allows a particular thread to obtain a lock
multiple times, but release the lock with a single unlock call. Since
we're detecting recursion, we know the lock is already owned by the
current thread in a previous call and must not be released in the
current call. This is really far too dependent on this particular
spinlock implementation, so I've added commented out calls to
THREAD_UNLOCK in the appropriate places. We can activate this code when
spinlock is taught to count each lock operation.
generation was causing unaligned access faults on the Alpha.
I have incremented the devstat version number, since this is an interface
change. You'll need to recompile libdevstat, systat, iostat, vmstat and
rpc.rstatd along with your kernel.

- if a command was specified and script(1) failed to execute it,
it would print the name of your shell in the error message
instead of that of the command that failed.
- since finish() was installed as a SIGCHLD handler, it would
often run before the main loop had had time to process the
last few bytes of output. This resulted in very strange
truncated error messages.
- script(1) would almost always return with an exit status of 0,
even if the command returned a non-zero exit status. This broke
my 'build world, install it and rebuild the kernel' scripts
because 'make installworld' would run even if 'make buildworld'
had failed.
- Make the "what do we do with a drunken disklabel" if-then-else-regardless
tangle easier to read.
- Don't count on the v86 structure being preserved between loop iterations,
as it may be trampled eg. by the DEBUG call.
wasn't getting sent back for most errors, even if there were retries left
on the command. I'm not sure how I ever let this slip by before...
In any case, we now send back ERESTART if there are retries left for the
command, and send back the default error code when there are no retries
left.

without the DA driver.
The problem was that the CD driver depended on scsi_read_write() and
scsi_start_stop(), which were defined in scsi_da.c.
I moved both functions, and their associated data structures and defines
from scsi_da.* to scsi_all.*. This is technically the "wrong" thing to do
since those commands are really only for direct-access type devices, not
for all SCSI devices. I think, though, that the advantage (allowing people
to compile kernels without the disk driver) outweighs any architectural
purity arguments.

The functions that were being compiled into the library have been moved to
scsi_all.c.
One warning: Any programs using scsi_start_stop() or scsi_read_write()
that included scsi_da.h but not scsi_all.h will need to be
changed to include scsi_all.h. This doesn't affect
camcontrol, and I don't think it affects any ports, but you
never know.

annoying #!CAM# indicators are used to be clear, in the expectation
that the places they show will be either fixed or diked out reasonably
quickly.
