Pending any significant issues, DEVFS will be made mandatory in

benefits of having it.
+ make Open_Disk sense the sector size by trying 512, 1024 and 2048
in this order. This makes the kernel note that
dscheck(cd1): bio_bcount 512 is not on a sector boundary (ssize 2048)
dscheck(cd1): bio_bcount 1024 is not on a sector boundary (ssize 2048)
if 2048 is the sector size. If this worries anyone: the message is from
/usr/src/sys/kern/subr_diskslice.c and shutups are to be placed there.
+ Have read_block and write_block use an additional parameter, the
sector size.
+ replace all barfout calls with return NULL, 0, __LINE__, etc.
Note that this does NOT emit diagnostics. More often than not,
you don't want library functions to scribble on stderr -- it may
not even be available. The right thing is to propagate the error
condition to upper management. The app should take care of errors.
+ use d1->sector_size instead of 512 in various places. I've left many
places untouched, especially those writing MBRs. I simply added
another arg hardcoded as 512. This is because I would not know what
I'm doing... I felt this approach would be reasonably backward
compatible and not introduce any new bugs in critical software.
Famous last words. Messing with MBRs might soon put me in the same
screwup meister category as, uh, never mind. :-)
+ bump the max no of disks from 20 to 32 (due to PR 24503).

pcb for fork(). It was possible for the state to be saved twice when an
interrupt handler saved it concurrently. This corrupted (reset) the state
because fnsave has the (in)convenient side effect of doing an implicit
fninit. Mundane null pointer bugs were not possible, because we save to
an "arbitrary" process's pcb and not to the "right" place (npxproc).
Push the parent's %gs to the pcb for fork(). Changes to %gs before
fork() were not preserved in the child unless an accidental context
switch did the pushing. Updated the list of pcb contents which is
supposed to inhibit bugs like this. pcb_dr*, pcb_gs and pcb_ext were
missing. Copying is correct for pcb_dr*, and pcb_ext is already
handled specially (although XXX'ly).
Reducing the savectx() call to an npxsave() call in rev.1.80 was a
mistake. The above bugs are duplicated in many places, including in
savectx() itself.
The arbitraryness of the parent process pointer for the fork()
subroutines, the pcb pointer for savectx(), and the save87 pointer
for npxsave(), is illusory. These functions don't work "right" unless
the pointers are precisely curproc, curpcb, and the address of npxproc's
save87 area, respectively, although the special context in which they
are called allows savectx(&dumppcb) to sort of work and npxsave(&dummy)
to work. cpu_fork() just doesn't work unless the parent process
pointer is curproc, or the caller has pushed %gs to the pcb, or %gs
happens to already be in the pcb.

terminates the string in all cases, based on code from netstat(1).
The path in a sockaddr_un is terminated either by a '\0', or by
the end of the sockaddr as defined by sun_len.
Previously, the code could write the "safety" '\0' beyond the end
of the sockaddr (sockaddr_un's need only be large enough to store
sun_len bytes), and writing into the the supplied sockaddr is bad
anyway.
them.
Sysinstall used to check /var/run/ld.so.hints (aout related) and create
hints with the ldconfig command, but the ldconfig command alone will
generate elf hints only. The correct behavior is:
* If /var/run/ld-elf.so.hints does not exist, generate elf hints
* If /var/run/ld.so.hints does not exist, generate aout hints
(using ldconfig with the -aout option)
This will help ports that check for aout libraries using ldconfig in their
pkg-req scripts.

- the changes that renamed libf2c to libg2c had not reached here
- there were no definitions for LIBDEVINFO, LIBMENU, LIBPANEL, LIBTINFO,
LIBUSB or LIBVGL. LIBUSB was used without it being defined, and
LIBDEVINFO and LIBVGL should have been used.
- the definitions of LIBDESCRYPT, LIBGCC_PIC, LIBGPLUSPLUS, LIBKZHEAD,
LIBKZTAIL, LIBSCRYPT and LIBSCSI were garbage.
Fixed some old bugs:
- LIBC_PIC and LIBCOM_ERR were assigned to using "=" instead of "?=".
- the definition of LIBC_R was disordered.
- LIBFORM was misspelled LIBFORMS (but not actually used).
