dedicated" mode. This was specifying that there are 256 (illegal!)
heads on the disk. If bioses store that in a byte, and it gets truncated
to 0, then that almost certainly causes the infamous divide-by-zero
nightmare.
This is also most likely the reason why the Thinkpad T20/A20 series
were locking up when FreeBSD was installed. This is also the most likely
reason why a boot1 being present causes an IA64 box to lock up at boot.
(removing the "part4" stuff from boot1.s fixes the IA64 boxes and would
most likely have fixed the T20/A20 and some TP600E series thinkpads)
booted from it when doing an installkernel.
Only change kern.bootfile from ${DESTDIR}${KODIR}/${KERNEL_KO}
to ${DESTDIR}${KODIR}.old/${KERNEL_KO}, and only when we're renaming
a booted ${DESTDIR}${KODIR}/${KERNEL_KO} kernel.
a temporary fix so that we can compile kernels. I waited 30 minutes
for a response from the person who would likely know, but any longer
is too long to wait with breakage at ToT.
(allocating pv entries w/ zalloci) when called in a loop due to
an madvise(). It is possible to completely exhaust the free page list and
cause a system panic when an expected allocation fails.
called and ip_output() encounters an error and bails (i.e. host
unreachable), we will leak an mbuf. This is because the code calls
m_freem(m0) after jumping to the bad: label at the end of the function,
when it should be calling m_freem(m). (m0 is the original mbuf list
_without_ the options mbuf prepended.)

ifconfig, which expects the address returned by the SIOCGIFNETMASK ioctl
to have a valid sa_family. Similar changes may be necessary for IPv6.
While we're here, get rid of an unnecessary temp variable.

this accross suspend/resume events and this was causing the dreaded false
positive hit on my "static bug" test.
Note: the PCI bus code should do this for us.
Note2: We don't do the same for I/O based pci devices since it is
more code and doesn't appear to be necessary.

function symbols in the kernel in a list of C strings, with an extra
nul-termination at the end.
This sysctl requires addition of a new linker operation. Now,
linker_file_t's need to respond to "each_function_name" to export
their function symbols.
Note that the sysctl doesn't currently allow distinguishing multiple
symbols with the same name from different modules, but could quite
easily without a change to the linker operation. This will be a nicety
to have when it can be used.

by the profiler on a running system. This is not done sparsely, as
memory is cheaper than processor speed and each gprof mcount() and
mexitcount() operation is already very expensive.

- Add a new MIB for battery info expire time in order to make it changeable.
Battery info expire time can be specified by
hw.acpi.battery.info_expire in sec.
- Add own MALLOC type and fix some potential memory leakages.
- Change some frequent printings to verbose printing.
- Stop timeout during acpi_cmbat_get_bst() too. This should reduce
the races with BIF evaluation.
- Remove acpi_cmbat_get_bif() invocation from acpi_cmbat_attach().
This was redundant because this should be called from
acpi_cmbat_timeout() now.

Remove asm functions to call the openfirmware and kernel entry points;
we can just call them directly.
Don't use the stack pointer for an intermediate result in setx.
Put the stack in the bss.
