- All those diffs to syscalls.master for each architecture *are*
necessary. This needed clarification; the stub code generation for
mlockall() was disabled, which would prevent applications from
linking to this API (suggested by mux)
- Giant has been quoshed. It is no longer held by the code, as
the required locking has been pushed down within vm_map.c.
- Callers must specify VM_MAP_WIRE_HOLESOK or VM_MAP_WIRE_NOHOLES
to express their intention explicitly.
- Inspected at the vmstat, top and vm pager sysctl stats level.
Paging-in activity is occurring correctly, using a test harness.
- The RES size for a process may appear to be greater than its SIZE.
This is believed to be due to mappings of the same shared library
page being wired twice. Further exploration is needed.
- Believed to back out of allocations and locks correctly
(tested with WITNESS, MUTEX_PROFILING, INVARIANTS and DIAGNOSTIC).

From alc:
Move pageable pipe memory to a seperate kernel submap to avoid awkward
vm map interlocking issues. (Bad explanation provided by me.)
From me:
Rework pipespace accounting code to handle this new layout, and adjust
our default values to account for the fact that we now have a solid
limit on allocations.
Also, remove the "maxpipes" limit, as it no longer has a purpose.
(The limit on kva usage solves the problem of having two many pipes.)
application could cause a wired page to be freed. In general,
vm_page_hold() should be preferred for ephemeral kernel mappings of pages
borrowed from a user-level address space. (vm_page_wire() should really be
reserved for indefinite duration pinning by the "owner" of the page.)

how it is used. The last parameter was always FALSE.
Note: In theory, gcc would perform constant propagation and dead code
elimination to achieve the same effect as removing the last parameter,
which is always FALSE. In practice, recent versions do not. So, there
is little point in letting unused code pessimize execution.

to worry that we entered the kernel with more that 512 bytes of
dirty registers on the kernel stack. Note that we cannot make any
assumptions anymore WRT to NaT collection points in exec_setregs(),
so we have to deal with them now.
word between the 8139C+ and the 8169. The 8139C+ has a 'frame alignment
error bit' (bit 27) but the 8169 does not. Rather than simply mark this
bit as reserved, RealTek removed it completely and shifted the remaining
status bits one space to the left. This was causing rl_rxeofcplus()
to misparse the error and checksum bits.
To workaround this, rl_rxeofcplus() now shifts the rxstat word one
bit to the right before testing any of the status bits (but after
the frame length has been extracted).
the time the card is inserted and the time that the card is
configured. This can lead to interrupt storms. The O2Micro suggested
workaround is to route the card function interrupt to IRQ1. It
appears from my testing that this is an acceptable workaround for most
chipsets (there's still some issue with the ricoh chipset).
Also, only look at the NOT_A_CARD bit when the bridge tells us there's
a card present. At least one test caused this to be true after the
card was removed, but the author couldn't recreate it with the
workaround in place. The change is more conservative than the
previous code, but still has the work around that wasn't present in
the older code.
