fbbd9655e5 Renumber copyright clause 4
Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

7f911abe54 Add support to libkvm for reading vmcores from other architectures.
- 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.

67e405315d Remove the advertising clause. UCB did this some time ago, but these
files were never updated to reflect that.

fbc400a67a Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

     .\"    $Id$
     .\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.

114d756447 Don't use u_long in the synopsis, since u_long is not part of the kvm
interface.
