linker. This is intended to replace kvm_mkdb etc. The first version
only does name->value lookups, but it's open ended. value->name lookups
would probably be a good thing to do too.
It's been suggested to try and connect the symbol tables to sysctl (which
is probably a more flexible way of doing it if it's done right), but that
is far more complex and difficult than I was ready to have a shot at.
by bde, a few other tweaks to get the patch to apply cleanly again and
some improvements to the comments.
This change closes some fairly minor security holes associated with
F_SETOWN, fixes a few bugs, and removes some limitations that F_SETOWN
had on tty devices. For more details, see the description on the PR.
Because this patch increases the size of the proc and pgrp structures,
it is necessary to re-install the includes and recompile libkvm,
the vinum lkm, fstat, gcore, gdb, ipfilter, ps, top, and w.

option with kern.flp (and a two-floppy install). This will be documented
in the release notes, I promise.
a few variables that could be used in the port Makefile for ".if exists()"
tests. bsd.port.post.mk defines the rest.
Note: if you define USE_X_PREFIX or USE_IMAKE, put it before including
bsd.port.pre.mk. These are the only two variables used in the first part.
In reality, bsd.port.pre.mk and bsd.port.post.mk just include bsd.port.mk
with special variables to turn part of it off.
not complete, and it hasn't been touched for 18 months. All the
ifdefs obfuscate the code. I discussed the LOGIN_CAP_AUTH support
with its author and he agreed that it is a dead end. I am bringing
PAM into the tree within the next two weeks. It is much more
flexible than LOGIN_CAP_AUTH, and will serve as a superior replacement
for it.
leaked memory on each unload and were limited to items referenced in
the kernel copy of vnode_if.c. Now a kernel module is free to create
it's own VOP_FOO() routines and the rest of the system will happily
deal with it, including passthrough layers like union/umap/etc.
Have VFS_SET() call a common vfs_modevent() handler rather than
inline duplicating the common code all over the place.
Have VNODEOP_SET() have the vnodeops removed at unload time (assuming a
module) so that the vop_t ** vector is reclaimed.
Slightly adjust the vop_t ** vectors so that calling slot 0 is a panic
rather than a page fault. This could happen if VOP_something() was called
without *any* handlers being present anywhere (including in vfs_default.c).
slot 1 becomes the default vector for the vnodeop table.
TODO: reclaim zones on unload (eg: nfs code)
removed at module unload (if in a module of course).
However; this introduces a new dependency on <sys/kernel.h> for things
that use MALLOC_DECLARE(). Bruce told me it is better to add sys/kernel.h
to the handful of files that need it rather than add an extra include to
sys/malloc.h for kernel compiles. Updates to follow in subsequent commits.
If the next available mailbox is not in the free state, print a warning
and handle the condition as a temporary resource shortage. The condition
should never happen, but we shouldn't panic since recovery is possible.

Don't fail the probe if the illegal command bit is set in the status
register. If the BusLogic MultiMaster probe preceeded us, it may well
have determined that the card we are attaching to was not a true MultiMaster
by sending us a command that fails on the 154X.
Reset the adapter before doing the inquiry. This provides extra sanity
and will also clear the illegal command status bit that my be left over
from the MultiMaster probe.
