Sysctl tree declarations.
Policy list structure definition.
Policy list variables (static, dynamic).
mac_late flag.
Enforcement flags for process, vm, which have checks in multiple files.
mac_labelmbufs variable to drive conditional mbuf labeling.
M_MACTEMP malloc type.
Debugging counter macros.
MAC Framework infrastructure primitives, including policy locking
primitives, kernel label initialization/destruction, userland
label consistency checks, policy slot allocation.
Per-object interfaces for objects that are internalized and externalized
using system calls that will remain centrally defined: credentials,
pipes, vnodes.
MAC policy composition macros: MAC_CHECK, MAC_BOOLEAN, MAC_EXTERNALIZE,
MAC_INTERNALIZE, MAC_PERFORM.

vm_pageout_scan(). Rationale: I don't like leaving a busy page in the
cache queue with neither the vm object nor the vm page queues lock held.
- Assert that the page is active in vm_pageout_page_stats().
src/sys/security/mac/mac_{internal.h,net.c,pipe.c,process.c,system.c,
vfs.c}. kern_mac.c has rapidly become the second-largest file in
src/sys/kern, and was not well organized. In follow-up commits,
components of the MAC Framework will be broken out into different
mac_* files.
Thanks Joe!
the denormal/unnormal trap, is not a standard IEEE trap. We did
not exclude it from being returned by fpgetmask(), nor did we make
sure that fpsetmask() didn't clobber it. Since the non-IEEE trap
is not part of fp_except_t, users of ifpgetmask()/fpsetmask() would
be confronted with unexpected behaviour, one of which is a SIGFPE
for denormal/unnormal FP results.
This commit makes sure that we don't leak the denormal/unnormal mask
bit in fp_except_t and also that we don't clobber it.
Until we can have perfect knowledge that all callers above us think it's okay
for us to sleep, releasing *our* locks of course, we don't dare try and sleep.
in connection with Marvell based SATA->PATA dongles.
The problem was caused by a combination of things working
together to make it hard to spot...
The ATA driver has always started the ATA command, then build
the SG list for DMA and then finally started the DMA engine.
While this is according to specs, it poses a potential
problem as some controllers apparently do not allow for unlimitted
time between starting the ATA command and starting the DMA engine.
At about the same time as ATAng was committed there were lots
of other changes applied, some of which was locking in parts
that causes the busdma load functions to take significantly
longer to load the SG list.
This pushed the time spent between starting the ATA command and
starting the DMA engine over the hill for some controllers
(especially the Silicon Image DS3112a) and caused what looked
like lost interrupts.
The solution is to get all the SG list work or rather all
busdma related stuff done before we even try to start anything.
This has the nice side effect of seperating busdma out the
way it should be, so the working of the ATA machinery is not
cluttered up with busdma droppings, making the code easier
to read and understand.
sysctl that a given variable is tunable.
Also added is CTLFLAG_RDTUN, which is CTLFLAG_RD|CTLFLAG_TUN; TUN does
not always imply read-only, so RDTUN should be used where RD was used
before.
