loader_conf_files="foo bar baz"
should cause loading the files listed, and then resume with the
remaining config files (from previous values of the variable).
Unfortunately, sometimes the line was ignored -- actually even
modifying the line in /boot/default/loader.conf sometimes doesn't work.
ANALYSIS: After much investigation, turned out to be a bug in the logic.
The existing code detected a new assignment by looking at the address
of the the variable containing the string. This only worked by pure
chance, i.e. if the new string is longer than the previous value
then the memory allocator may return a different address
to store the string hence triggering the detection.
SOLUTION: This commit contains a minimal change to fix the problem,
without altering too much the existing structure of the code.
However, as a step towards improving the quality and reliability of
this code, I have introduced a handful of one-line functions
(strget, strset, strfree, string= ) that could be used in dozens
of places in the existing code.
HOWEVER:
There is a much bigger problem here. Even though I am no Forth
expert (as most fellow src committers) I can tell that much of the
forth code (in support.4th at least) is in severe need of a
review/refactoring:
+ pieces of code are replicated multiple times instead of writing
functions (see e.g. set_module_*);
+ a lot of stale code (e.g. "structure" definitions for
preloaded_files, kernel_module, pnp stuff) which is not used
or at least belongs elsewhere.
The code bload is extremely bad as the loader runs with very small
memory constraints, and we already hit the limit once (see
http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=185132
Reducing the footprint of the forth files is critical.
+ two different styles of coding, one using pure stack functions
(maybe beautiful but surely highly unreadable), one using
high level mechanisms to give names to arguments and local
variables (which leads to readable code).
Note that this code is used by default by all FreeBSD installations,
so the fragility and the code bloat are extremely damaging.
I will try to work fixing the three items above, but if others have
time, please have a look at these issues.

multiple algorithms and potentially collect multiple samples.
Instead of a single calibration interval we now have short and long
intervals; the long interval roughly corresponds to the previous
single interval. The short interval is used to speedup collection
of samples and happens much quicker. We make calls using the short
interval until we're told the calibration work is complete at which
point we fallback to the long interval. In addition there is a
much longer reset interval used to flush all calibration state and
cause everthing to start anew.
With these changes you can also disable calibration entirely by
setting the long interval to zero.
at. I don't think this will make a huge difference, but I have
received a report of a interrupt storm on one 16-bit card that this
might fix (chances are it won't, since I think that we may need to
check both the CBB registers for the 16-bit card as well as the PCIC
registers for power state change).

the power interrupt and init code waiting for the interrupt are
running on different CPUs. I haven't seen this make any real
difference, but I've also had some reports of odd behavior I can't
otherwise explain. It is an infrequent operation, and certainly
wouldn't hurt.
in order to get the symbol binding state "just so". This is to allow
locking to be activated and not run into recursion problems later.
However, one of the magic bits involves an explicit call to _umtx_op()
to force symbol resolution. It does a wakeup operation on a fake,
uninitialized (ie: random contents) umtx. Since libthr isn't active, this
is harmless. Nothing can match the random wakeup.
However, valgrind finds this and is not amused. Normally I'd just
write a suppression record for it, but the idea of passing random
args to syscalls (on purpose) just doesn't feel right.
my right mouse button and keyboard LEDs from working due to mangled
configuration packets. Fixed several other races and associated problems in the
main ADB stack that were exposed while fixing this.
Now it is possible to suspend/resume with inserted and active card.
To reinitialize card on resume and to detect card change while suspended,
implement bus rescan routines. It can also be used by controllers without
card presence detection signals or with multiple cards per slot support.
While there, cleanup msleep() usage. We have no any rights to exit without
"request done" signal from driver as it could lead to modify after free.

* support for bzip2 file with multiple concatenated bzip2 streams
* support for bzip2 file with junk after bzip2 stream
* support for gzip file with junk after gzip stream
* "fuzz" tester randomly modifies a bunch of input files in order to try
to crash libarchive (this found an amusing hang in the ISO9660 code
when trying to read images that advertised a zero blocksize).
This test is implemented, but commented out for now:
* support for gzip file with multiple concatenated gzip streams
This is an attempt to eliminate a lot of redundant
code from the read ("decompression") filters by
changing them to juggle arbitrary-sized blocks
and consolidate reblocking code at a single point
in archive_read.c.
Along the way, I've changed the internal read/consume
API used by the format handlers to a slightly
different style originally suggested by des@. It
does seem to simplify a lot of common cases.
The most dramatic change is, of course, to
archive_read_support_compression_none(), which
has just evaporated into a no-op as the blocking
code this used to hold has all been moved up
a level.
There's at least one more big round of refactoring
yet to come before the individual filters are as
straightforward as I think they should be...
* Wrap long declarations to fit 80 chars
* #undef macros that shouldn't be exported
* Organize the version-dependent conditionals a
bit more consistently
Speculative:
* libarchive 3.0 will (eventually) use int64_t
instead of off_t. This is an attempt to avoid
some the headaches caused by Linux LFS. (I'll
still have to do ugly things for the struct stat
references in archive_entry.h, of course.)
