code can use it. This takes a single constant argument and fails to compile
if it is 0 (false). The main application of this is to make assertions about
structure sizes at compile time, in order to validate assumptions made in
other code. Examples:
CTASSERT(sizeof(struct foo) == FOO_SIZEOF);
CTASSERT(sizeof(struct foo) == (1 << FOO_SHIFT));

something wrong with the kernel stack.
Add code to check the kernel stack pointer in various important places
and try hard not to go down in flames if its wrong.
Add a guard page at the bottom of the kernel stack. Its unclear how easy
it will be to detect these faults and do something useful.
Setup the registers on exec how the c runtime expects.
Implement various {fill,set}_*regs.
Fix proc locking.
Note ALL MODULES MUST BE RECOMPILED
make the kernel aware that there are smaller units of scheduling than the
process. (but only allow one thread per process at this time).
This is functionally equivalent to teh previousl -current except
that there is a thread associated with each process.
Sorry john! (your next MFC will be a doosie!)

- mostly complete kernel pmap support, and tested but currently turned
off userland pmap support
- low level assembly language trap, context switching and support code
- fully implemented atomic.h and supporting cpufunc.h
- some support for kernel debugging with ddb
- various header tweaks and filling out of machine dependent structures
to a new architecture. This is the base of the sparc64 port, but contains
limited machine dependent code, and can be used a base for ports. Included
are:
- standard machine dependent headers, tweaked for a 64 bit, big endian
architecture, including empty versions of all the machine dependent
structures
- a machine independent atomic.h, which can be used until a port has
support for interrupts and the operations really need to be atomic
- stub versions of all the machine dependent functions, which panic
when called and print out the name of the function that needs to
be implemented. functions which are normally in assembly files are
not included, but this should reduce the number of different undefined
references on the first few compiles from hundreds to 5 or 6
Given minimal startup code and console support it should be trivial to
make this compile and run the first few sysinits on almost any architecture.
