mutexes or using any callouts when active.
Trying to lock a mutex when KDB is active or the scheduler is stopped
can result in infinite wait loops. The same goes for calling callout
related functions which in turn lock mutexes.
If the USB controller at which a USB keyboard is connected is idle
when KDB is entered, polling the USB keyboard via USB will always
succeed. Else polling may fail depending on which state the USB
subsystem and USB interrupt handler is in. This is unavoidable unless
KDB can wait for USB interrupt threads to complete before stalling the
CPU(s).

These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,
such as:
1) no output from sysctl(8)
2) erroneously returning ENOMEM with tools like truss(1)
or uname(1)
truss: can not get etype: Cannot allocate memory
there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

create character devices. The deadlock can happen if an application is
issuing IOCTLs which require USB refcounting, at the same time the USB
device is detaching.
There is already a counter in place in the USB device structure to
detect this situation, but it was not always checked ahead of invoking
functions that might destroy character devices, like detach, set
configuration, set alternate interface or detach active kernel driver.

into the FreeBSD boot loader, typically for non-USB aware BIOSes, EFI systems
or embedded platforms. This is also useful for out of the system compilation
of the FreeBSD USB stack for various purposes. The USB kernel files can
now optionally include a global header file which should include all needed
definitions required to compile the FreeBSD USB stack. When the global USB
header file is included, no other USB header files will be included by
default.
Add new file containing the USB stack configuration for the
FreeBSD loader build.
Replace some __FBSDID()'s by /* $FreeBSD$ */ comments. Now all
USB files follow the same style.
Use cases:
- console in loader via USB
- loading kernel via USB
Discussed with: Hiroki Sato, hrs @ EuroBSDCon
The SYSCTL_NODE macro defines a list that stores all child-elements of
that node. If there's no SYSCTL_DECL macro anywhere else, there's no
reason why it shouldn't be static.

Most of the cases looked harmless, but this is done for the sake of
correctness. In one case it even allowed to drop an intermediate buffer.
