offset or request size which is not a multiple of the sector size, make
sure that the bio is set to indicate that no data has actually been
transferred.
The result of this is that the file offset is no longer incremented for
these requests. The fact that the file offset was incremented broke
fdisk(8)'s probing of sector size for non-512 byte sector sizes.

It is similar to debug.kdb.trap, except for it tries to cause a page fault
via a call to an invalid pointer. This can highlight differences between
a fault on data access vs. a fault on code call some CPUs might have.

the return address on the stack and only then "dereferences" %pc.
Therefore, in the case of a call to an invalid address, we arrive
to the trap handler with the invalid value in tf_eip. This used
to prevent db_backtrace() from assigning the most recent and interesting
frame on the stack to the right spot in the right function, from
which the invalid call was attempted.
Try to detect and work around that by recovering the return address
from the stack.
The work-around requires the fault address be passed to db_backtrace().
Smuggle it as tf_err.

The improvements are:
- can get the kld info from core files via kvm(3);
- can use kldstat(2) directly, which is a piece of cake;
- can use .symbols or whatever, which allows for use by
non-developers when reporting system crashes -- now asf(8)
can be mentioned in the handbook at last;
- speed (no more double fts(3) per loaded module);
- various bugs fixed.
At the same time, the new asf(8) should stay compatible with
the old one, bar bugs. Perhaps some defaults may be changed
later to match today's state of affairs.

as possible for the syncache_add() case. The syncache timer no longer
aquires the tcpinfo lock and timeout/retransmit runs can happen in
parallel with bucket granularity.
On a P4 the additional locks cause a slight degression of 0.7% in tcp
connections per second. When IP and TCP input are deserialized and
can run in parallel this little overhead can be neglected. The syncookie
handling still leaves room for improvement and its random salts may be
moved to the syncache bucket head structures to remove the second lock
operation currently required for it. However this would be a more
involved change from the way syncookies work at the moment.
