shall retain its CDDL copyright, and thus likely be removed from GENERIC) I have removed the CDDL
from hcall.S because there is zero flexibility in the implementation of hypercalls as they derive
directly from the hypervisor interface which is not copyrighted (ironically the source for the
hypervisor itself is BSD licensed).
It is best to start any bikeshed about this as soon as possible.

switch tsb.c over to using wrappers for contig page allocation
wait (time waited to acquire) and hold times for *all* kernel locks. If
the architecture has a system synchronized TSC, the profiling code will
use that - thereby minimizing profiling overhead. Large chunks of profiling
code have been moved out of line, the overhead measured on the T1 for when
it is compiled in but not enabled is < 1%.

For the record, the KDTRACE option caused _no_ additional source files
to be compiled in; certainly no CDDL source files. All it did was to
allow existing BSD licensed kernel files to include one or more CDDL
header files.
By removing this from DEFAULTS, the onus is on a kernel builder to add
the option to the kernel config, possibly by including GENERIC and
customising from there. It means that DTrace won't be a feature
available in FreeBSD by default, which is the way I intended it to be.
Without this option, you can't load the dtrace module (which contains
the dtrace device and the DTrace framework). This is equivalent to
requiring an option in a kernel config before you can load the linux
emulation module, for example.
I think it is a mistake to have DTrace ported to FreeBSD, but not
to have it available to everyone, all the time. The only exception
to this is the companies which distribute systems with FreeBSD embedded.
Those companies will customise their systems anyway. The KDTRACE
option was intended for them, and only them.
adds the hooks that DTrace modules register with, and adds a few functions
which have the dtrace_ prefix to allow the DTrace FBT (function boundary
trace) provider to avoid tracing because they are called from the DTtrace
probe context.
Unlike other forms of tracing and debug, DTrace support in the kernel
incurs negligible run-time cost.
I think the only reason why anyone wouldn't want to have kernel support
enabled for DTrace would be due to the license (CDDL) under which DTrace
is released.
