I do not know why this didn't panic my box, but I have most certainly
been using it:

TLB problem when bouncing from one cpu to another (the original cpu will
not have purged its TLB if the it simply went idle).

no punch_fw was used.
Fix another couple of bugs which prevented rules from being
installed properly.
On passing, use IPFW2 instead of NEW_IPFW to compile the new code,
and slightly simplify the instruction generation code.
Following Darren's suggestion, make Dijkstra happy and rewrite the
ipfw_chk() main loop removing a lot of goto's and using instead a
variable to store match status.
Add a lot of comments to explain what instructions are supposed to
do and how -- this should ease auditing of the code and make people
more confident with it.
In terms of code size: the entire file takes about 12700 bytes of text,
about 3K of which are for the main function, ipfw_chk(), and 2K (ouch!)
for ipfw_log().

Shorten a comment to fix a style bug while I'm here.

Oops; I forgot for previous delta... If we're and FC or ULTRA2 or better
card, we can have a 1024 element request queue instead of 256.

Remove sim queue freezes for resource shortages. I've had too many
strange race conditions where I freeze on a resource shortage but
never get unfrozen.
Consolidate the remaining sim queue freeze condition (for loopdown)
into an inline with debug messages that allows us to track problems
at ISP_LOGDEBUG0 level easier. Change a bunch of debug messages about
loop down/up conditions to ISP_LOGDEBUG0 level.
Remove dead isp_relsim code.
Change some internal flag stuff for efficiency.
Complain vociferously if we try and use our FC scratch area while it's
busy being used already (I mean, if we don't have solaris' ability
to sleep as an interrupt thread which would allow us to just use
a p/v semaphore, at least *say* when you've just borked yourself).
Add infrastructure to allow overrides of hard loopid && initiator
id from boot variables.
Fix the usual quota of silly bugs:
+ 'ktmature' needs to be per-instance. Argh.
+ When entering isp_watchdog, set intsok to zero, preserving
old value to restore later. It's not nice to try and sleep
from splsoftclock.
+ Fix tick overflow buglet in checking timeout value.

turns out that there's something of a hole in our new fabric name
server stuff. We ask the name server for entities that have
registered as a specific type. That type is FC-SCSI. If the entity
hasn't performed a REGISTER FC4 TYPES, the fabric nameserver won't
return it.
This brings this driver to a bit of a fork in the road as to what
the right thing to do is. For servicing the needs of accessing
FC-SCSI devices, this method is fine, and to be preferred. It is
extremely unlikely we're interested in fabric devices that *don't*
register correctly. If I ever get around to adding an FC-IP stack,
then asking for devices that have registers as FC-IP types is also
the right thing to do.
So- asking the fabric nameserver for a specific type is fine, *as
long as you are only interested in specific types*. If, on the other
hand, you want to create (as for management tool support) a picture
of everything on the fabric, this is *not* so fine. There are a
large class of FC-SCSI *initiators* who *don't* correctly register,
so we never will *see* them.
Is this a problem? Yes, but only a little one. If we want to do such
management tool support, we should probably run a *different* fabric
nameserver query algorithm. Better yet, we should talk to the management
nameserver in Brocade switches instead of the standard FC-GS-2 fabric
nameserver (which can be unwieldy).
Other changes: if we've overrrides marked, don't set some default
values from reading NVRAM. This allows us to override things like
EXEC throttle without having to ignore NVRAM entirely.

hardly MD, since all our platforms share the same macro. It's not
really compiler dependent either, but this helps in reducing
<machine/ansi.h> to only type definitions.
for the trouble that DES and I had with MFCs: when "cvs update -jfoo -jbar"
creates a new file, it sets the version to 0 ("new") but sets the timestamp
in the Entries file to the timestamp of the file that's new on the branch.
The CVS client doesn't upload files whose timestamps match with the Entries
file, so these new files don't get uploaded to the server and the server
fails when trying to check them in.

mi_switch(9) is still wildly innacurate. I suggest that every kernel
developer takes 20 minutes a day for the next few days and updates one or
two of his favourite chapter 9 man pages as they are now WAY out of date
in general. I will add a couple of KSE related pages soon.
threaded VM pagezero kthread outside of Giant. For some platforms, this
is really easy since it can just use the direct mapped region. For others,
IPI sending is involved or there are other issues, so grab Giant when
needed.
We still have preemption issues to deal with, but Alan Cox has an
interesting suggestion on how to minimize the problem on x86.
Use Luigi's hack for preserving the (lack of) priority.
Turn the idle zeroing back on since it can now actually do something useful
outside of Giant in many cases.
- Initialize lock structure in vncache_alloc
- Return locked vnodes from vncache_alloc
- Setup vnode op vectors to use default lock, unlock, and islocked
- Implement simple locking scheme required for lookup
to a malloc'd buffer in dmpindir() and dirindir(). These functions
recursively call themselves to handle deeper levels of indirect
blocks, so a single static buffer was not suitable.

Approach suggested by: bde
and -Wformat warnings:
o Include timeconv.h for the time conversion functions.
o Remove unused variables.
o Correct a few cases where %d was used when printing longs.
