- kvm_close: add a testcase to verify support for errno = EINVAL / -1
(see D10065) when kd == NULL is provided to the libcall.
- kvm_geterr:
-- Add a negative testcase for kd == NULL returning "" (see D10022).
-- Add two positive testcases:
--- test the error case using kvm_write on a O_RDONLY descriptor.
--- test the "no error" case using kvm_read(3) and kvm_nlist(3) as
helper routines and by injecting a bogus error message via
_kvm_err (an internal API) _kvm_err was used as there isn't a
formalized way to clear the error output, and because
kvm_nlist always returns ENOENT with the NULL terminator today.
- kvm_open, kvm_open2:
-- Add some basic negative tests for kvm_open(3) and kvm_open2(3).
Testing positive cases with a specific
`corefile`/`execfile`/`resolver` requires more work and would require
user intervention today in order to reliably test this out.

Return a NUL string instead of just working by accident with kvm_geterr(3)
when MALLOC_PRODUCTION is disabled (I didn't confirm the MALLOC_PRODUCTION
being enabled path).
Document the new explicit return behavior for kvm_geterr(3), as well
as the previous implicit behavior, i.e., the buffer attached to
returned via kvm_geterr(3) would be empty if a previous error hadn't been
stored in `kd`.

This change consists of two parts:
- allow libkvm to recognize /dev/vmm/* character devices as devices that
provide access to the physical memory of a system (similarly to /dev/fwmem*)
- allow libkvm to recognize that /dev/vmm/* and /dev/fwmem* devices provide
access to the physical memory of live remote systems and, thus, the memory
is writable
As a result, it should be possible to run commands like
$ kgdb -w /path/to/kernel /dev/fwmem0.0
$ kgdb /path/to/kernel /dev/vmm/guest

Instead of using a hash table to convert physical page addresses to offsets
in the sparse page array, cache the number of bits set for each 4MB chunk of
physical pages. Upon lookup, find the nearest cached population count, then
add/subtract the number of bits from that point to the page's PTE bit.
Then multiply by page size and add to the sparse page map's base offset.
This replaces O(n) worst-case lookup with O(1) (plus a small number of bits
to scan in the bitmap). Also, for a 128GB system, a typical kernel core of
about 8GB will now only require ~4.5MB of RAM for this approach instead of
~48MB as with the hash table.
More concretely, /usr/sbin/crashinfo against the same core improves from a
max RSS of 188MB and wall time of 43.72s (33.25 user 2.94 sys) to 135MB and
9.43s (2.58 user 1.47 sys). Running "thread apply all bt" in kgdb has a
similar RSS improvement, and wall time drops from 4.44s to 1.93s.

or pte-v6.h in files which needs it.
There are quite internal definitions in pte-v4.h and pte-v6.h headers
specific for corresponding pmap implementation. These headers should be
included only in very few files and an intention is to not hide for
which implementation such files are.
Further, sys/arm/arm/elf_trampoline.c is an example of file which
uses armv4 like pmap implementation for both armv4 and armv6 platforms.
This is another reason why pte.h which includes specific header
according to __ARM_ARCH is not created.
- Add a kvaddr_type to represent kernel virtual addresses instead of
unsigned long.
- Add a struct kvm_nlist which is a stripped down version of struct nlist
that uses kvaddr_t for n_value.
- Add a kvm_native() routine that returns true if an open kvm descriptor
is for a native kernel and memory image.
- Add a kvm_open2() function similar to kvm_openfiles(). It drops the
unused 'swapfile' argument and adds a new function pointer argument for
a symbol resolving function. Native kernels still use _fdnlist() from
libc to resolve symbols if a resolver function is not supplied, but cross
kernels require a resolver.
- Add a kvm_nlist2() function similar to kvm_nlist() except that it uses
struct kvm_nlist instead of struct nlist.
- Add a kvm_read2() function similar to kvm_read() except that it uses
kvaddr_t instead of unsigned long for the kernel virtual address.
- Add a new kvm_arch switch of routines needed by a vmcore backend.
Each backend is responsible for implementing kvm_read2() for a given
vmcore format.
- Use libelf to read headers from ELF kernels and cores (except for
powerpc cores).
- Add internal helper routines for the common page offset hash table used
by the minidump backends.
- Port all of the existing kvm backends to implement a kvm_arch switch and
to be cross-friendly by using private constants instead of ones that
vary by platform (e.g. PAGE_SIZE). Static assertions are present when
a given backend is compiled natively to ensure the private constants
match the real ones.
- Enable all of the existing vmcore backends on all platforms. This means
that libkvm on any platform should be able to perform KVA translation
and read data from a vmcore of any platform.
