this used to be slightly cleaner than using ifdefs in a few places to
support both a.out and elf, but using it now just causes messes and
unportabilities. It seems to be impossible to implement the elf
HIDENAME() portably in cpp (since token pasting of "." and <name> is
invalid).

- Removed all uses of CNAME(). CNAME() is easy enough to use in pure
asm code, but using it in inline asm requires messy quoting. The
core pure asm code has been hacked on more and all uses of CNAME() in
it have already gone away. Just assume the elf convention here too.
- Removed now-uneeded include of <machine/asmacros.h>.
- Removed the workaround for a namespace conflict with this include.

This change makes the transition from a default to an option more
transparent and is an attempt to head off all the compliants that are
likely from people who don't read UPDATING, based on experience with
the io/mem change.

begun with a repo-copy of mac.h to mac_framework.h. sys/mac.h now
contains the userspace and user<->kernel API and definitions, with all
in-kernel interfaces moved to mac_framework.h, which is now included
across most of the kernel instead.
This change is the first step in a larger cleanup and sweep of MAC
Framework interfaces in the kernel, and will not be MFC'd.

interesting special registers (far behind %cr3). The debug registers
are still accessible as variables and displayed in another bogus place

Implement the linux_io_* syscalls (AIO). They are only enabled if the native
AIO code is available (either compiled in to the kernel or as a module) at
the time the functions are used. If the AIO stuff is not available there
will be a ENOSYS.

DESIGN NOTES:
1. Linux permits a process to own multiple AIO queues (distinguished by
"context"), but FreeBSD creates only one single AIO queue per process.
My code maintains a request queue (STAILQ of queue(3)) per "context",
and throws all AIO requests of all contexts owned by a process into
the single FreeBSD per-process AIO queue.
When the process calls io_destroy(2), io_getevents(2), io_submit(2) and
io_cancel(2), my code can pick out requests owned by the specified context
from the single FreeBSD per-process AIO queue according to the per-context
request queues maintained by my code.
2. The request queue maintained by my code stores contrast information between
Linux IO control blocks (struct linux_iocb) and FreeBSD IO control blocks
(struct aiocb). FreeBSD IO control block actually exists in userland memory
space, required by FreeBSD native aio_XXXXXX(2).
3. It is quite troubling that the function io_getevents() of libaio-0.3.105
needs to use Linux-specific "struct aio_ring", which is a partial mirror
of context in user space. I would rather take the address of context in
kernel as the context ID, but the io_getevents() of libaio forces me to
take the address of the "ring" in user space as the context ID.
To my surprise, one comment line in the file "io_getevents.c" of
libaio-0.3.105 reads:
Ben will hate me for this

(PICs) rather than interrupt sources. This allows interrupt controllers
with no interrupt pics (such as the 8259As when APIC is in use) to
participate in suspend/resume.
- Always register the 8259A PICs even if we don't use any of their pins.
- Explicitly reset the 8259As on resume on amd64 if 'device atpic' isn't
included.
- Add a "dummy" PIC for the local APIC on the BSP to reset the local APIC
on resume. This gets suspend/resume working with APIC on UP systems.
SMP still needs more work to bring the APs back to life.

subr_rtc.c contains the newbus'ified RTC interface.
Centralize the machdep.{adjkerntz,disable_rtc_set,wall_cmos_clock}

(and possibly others).
- Split out the communication protocols into their own files and use
a couple of function pointers in the softc that the commuication
protocols setup in their own attach routine.
- Add support for the SSIF interface (talking to IPMI over SMBus).
- Add an ACPI attachment.
- Add a PCI attachment that attaches to devices with the IPMI interface
subclass.
- Split the ISA attachment out into its own file: ipmi_isa.c.
- Change the code to probe the SMBIOS table for an IPMI entry to just use
pmap_mapbios() to map the table in rather than trying to setup a fake
resource on an isa device and then activating the resource to map in the
table.
- Make bus attachments leaner by adding attach functions for each
communication interface (ipmi_kcs_attach(), ipmi_smic_attach(), etc.)
that setup per-interface data.
- Formalize the model used by the driver to handle requests by adding an
explicit struct ipmi_request object that holds the state of a given
request and reply for the entire lifetime of the request. By bundling
the request into an object, it is easier to add retry logic to the various
communication backends (as well as eventually support BT mode which uses
a slightly different message format than KCS, SMIC, and SSIF).
- Add a per-softc lock and remove D_NEEDGIANT as the driver is now MPSAFE.
- Add 32-bit compatibility ioctl shims so you can use a 32-bit ipmitool
on FreeBSD/amd64.
- Add ipmi(4) to i386 and amd64 NOTES.

old/broken hardware. Unfortunately, it adds cache pressure and possible
mispredicted branches to the fast path of the bus_dmamap_load collection of
functions. Since it's meant for slow path exception processing, de-inline
it and allow its conditions to be pre-computed at tag_create time and thus
short-circuited at runtime.
While here, cut down on the size of _bus_dmamap_load_buffer() by pushing the
bounce page logic into a non-inlined function. Again, this helps with
cache pressure and mispredicted branches.
According to the TSC, this shaves off a few cycles on average. Unfortunately,
the data varies quite a bit due to interrupts and preemption, so it's hard to
get a good measurement. Real world measurements of network PPS are welcomed.
A merge to amd64 and other arches is pending more testing.
