the pid provider on a kernel compiled with INVARIANTS.
sys/cddl/contrib/opensolaris/uts/intel/dtrace/fasttrap_isa.c:
In fasttrap_probe_pid(), attempts to write to the
address space of the thread that fired the probe
must be performed with the process of the thread
held. Use _PHOLD() to ensure this is the case.
In fasttrap_probe_pid(), use proc_write_regs() instead
of calling set_regs() directly. proc_write_regs()
performs invariant checks to verify the calling
environment of set_regs(). PROC_LOCK()/UNLOCK() around
the call to proc_write_regs() so that it's invariants
are satisfied.

This will allow GENERIC configurations to boot on small memory boxes, but
not require end users who want to use CTL to recompile their kernel. They
can simply set kern.cam.ctl.disable=0 in loader.conf.
The eventual solution to the memory usage problem is to change the way
CTL allocates memory to be more configurable, but this should fix things
for small memory situations in the mean time.
UPDATING: Explain the change in the CTL configuration, and
how users can enable CTL if they would like to use
it.
sys/conf/options: Add a new option, CTL_DISABLE, that prevents CTL
from initializing.
ctl.c: If CTL_DISABLE is turned on, don't initialize.
i386/conf/GENERIC,
amd64/conf/GENERIC: Re-enable device ctl, and add the CTL_DISABLE
option.
- Rewrite kevent() timeout implementation to allow sub-tick precision.
- Make the interval timings for EVFILT_TIMER more accurate. This also
removes an hack introduced in r238424.

kern_nanosleep() is now converted to use tsleep_sbt(). With this change
nanosleep() and usleep() can handle sub-tick precision for timeouts.
Also, try to help coalesce of events passing as argument to tsleep_bt()
a precision value calculated as a percentage of the sleep time.
This percentage is default 5%, but it can tuned according to users
need via the sysctl interface.

- Switch syscons from timeout() to callout_reset_flags() and specify that
precision is not important there -- anything from 20 to 30Hz will be fine.
- Reduce syscons "refresh" rate to 1-2Hz when console is in graphics mode
and there is nothing to do except some polling for keyboard. Text mode
refresh would also be nice to have adaptive, but this change at least
should help laptop users who running X.

As vm objects are type-stable there is no need to initialize the
resident splay tree pointer and the cache splay tree pointer in
_vm_object_allocate() but this could be done in the init UMA zone
handler.
The destructor UMA zone handler, will further check if the condition is
retained at every destruction and catch for bugs.

Make loadavg calculation callout direct. There are several reasons for it:
- it is very simple and doesn't worth context switch to SWI;
- since SWI is no longer used here, we can remove twelve years old hack,
excluding this SWI from from the loadavg statistics;
- it fixes problem when eventtimer (HPET) shares interrupt with some other
device, and that interrupt thread counted as permanent loadavg of 1; now
loadavg accounted before that interrupt thread is scheduled.

precise time event generation. This greatly improves granularity of
callouts which are not anymore constrained to wait next tick to be
scheduled.
- Extend the callout KPI introducing a set of callout_reset_sbt* functions,
which take a sbintime_t as timeout argument. The new KPI also offers a
way for consumers to specify precision tolerance they allow, so that
callout can coalesce events and reduce number of interrupts as well as
potentially avoid scheduling a SWI thread.
- Introduce support for dispatching callouts directly from hardware
interrupt context, specifying an additional flag. This feature should be
used carefully, as long as interrupt context has some limitations
(e.g. no sleeping locks can be held).
- Enhance mechanisms to gather informations about callwheel, introducing
a new sysctl to obtain stats.
This change breaks the KBI. struct callout fields has been changed, in
particular 'int ticks' (4 bytes) has been replaced with 'sbintime_t'
(8 bytes) and another 'sbintime_t' field was added for precision.

pointers to the file structure receiving descriptors stopped to work when also
at least few kilobytes of data is being send. In the kernel the
soreceive_generic() function doesn't see control mbuf as the first mbuf and
unp_externalize() is never called, first 6(?) kilobytes of data is missing as
well on receiving end.
This breaks for example tmux.
I don't know yet why going from 8 bytes to sizeof(struct filedescent) per
descriptor (or even to 16 bytes per descriptor) breaks things, but to
work-around it for now use 8 bytes per file descriptor at the cost of memory
allocation.
