This is a followup of 692e19cf51 (add netlink to GENERIC@amd64).
Netlink is a communication protocol defined in RFC 3549. It is async,
TLV-based protocol, providing 1-1 and 1-many communications between kernel
and userland. Netlink is currently used in Linux kernel to modify, read and
subscribe for nearly all networking states. Interface state, addresses, routes,
firewall, rules, fibs, etc, are controlled via Netlink.
Netlink support was added in D36002. It has got a number of improvements and
first customers since then:
* net/bird2 got netlink support, enabling route multipath in FreeBSD
* netlink-based devd notifications are being worked on ( D37574 ).
* linux(4) fully supports and depends on Netlink
Enabling Netlink in GENERIC targets two goals.
The first one is to provide stability for the third-party userland applications,
so they can rely on the fact that netlink always exists since 14.0 and potentially 13.2.
Loadable module makes life of the app delepers harder. For example, `net/bird2` can be
either build with netlink or rtsock support, but not both.
The second goal is to enable gradual conversion of the base userland tools
to use netlink(4) interfaces. Converting tools like netstat (D36529), route,
ifconfig one-by-one simplifies testing and addressing the feedback.
Othewise, switching all base to use netlink at once may be too big of a leap.

Some architectures will pretty-print a system call trap in the
backtrace. Rather than printing the symbol, use the syscallname()
function to pull the string from the sv_syscallnames array corresponding
to the process. This simplifies the function somewhat.
Mostly, this will result in dropping the "sys" prefix, e.g. "sys_exit"
will now be printed simply as "exit".
Make two minor tweaks to the function signature: use a u_int for the
syscall number since this is a more correct type (see the 'code' member
of struct syscall_args), and make the thread pointer the first argument.
The latter is more natural and conventional.

Note that powerpc does not yet use this as while the mmu_radix pmap
in powerpc uses the new scheme (albeit with fewer PV entries in a
chunk than normal due to an used pv_pmap field in struct pv_entry),
the Book-E pmaps for powerpc use the older style PV entries without

We don't need the 56 bytes at the end of bootinfo, and never had. Don't

Add comments about what versions of FreeBSD 'old' means in various
contexts. Add note that old disk loader (from 1.x/2.x) is doomed to
failure because it doesn't provide metadata that we now require to boot,

Mark the obsolete fields in bootinfo with _was_. Note that the fields
from bi_memdesc_version to the end of the structure never were used in a
release. They were added in April 2010 for i386 EFI booting. The boot
loader set these fields though 2019, but no kernel ever looked at them
and we never supported i386 EFI booting, and likely never will in this
form. They can likely be deleted entirely in the future, but locore.S
needs to change to do that (it also needs to change to drop support for
really old booting scenarios as well, which will eliminate bi_endcommon
too).
All the other fields haven't been used since the 4.x -> 5.x cutover of
the wdc driver to ata.
The bi_bios_dev field is used in the handoff between bootXX and the
loader. The loader uses it to determine what disk it was loaded off of
to detmerine the default root filesystem. It's not used by the i386
kernel anymore to determine anything.

Some kernel memory, like pipe buffers, is pageable. We must not enable

tf_trapno is checked on return from interrupt/exception to determine if
special handling is needed for switching address space. This is due to
the possibility of NMI/MCHK/DBG to occur at arbitrary place in kernel,
where both address space and stack used could be transient. Kernel
saves current %cr3 in tf_err for such events, to restore on return.
If user is able to set tf_trapno, it can trigger that special handling,
and since tf_err is also user-controlled by sigreturn(2), the result is
undefined.

Which means that we must not copy top 8 bytes from the trampoline stack
for the exception frame to the regular thread kstack. As consequence,
this stops corruption of the pcb. The visible effect was often a broken
fork(2) on the CPU where corruption occured.
Account for the detail by substracting 8 from the copy byte count when
moving exception frames from trampoline to the regular stack.

Make most AST handlers dynamically registered. This allows to have
subsystem-specific handler source located in the subsystem files,
instead of making subr_trap.c aware of it. For instance, signal
delivery code on return to userspace is now moved to kern_sig.c.
Also, it allows to have some handlers designated as the cleanup (kclear)
type, which are called both at AST and on thread/process exit. For
instance, ast(), exit1(), and NFS server no longer need to be aware
about UFS softdep processing.
The dynamic registration also allows third-party modules to register AST
handlers if needed. There is one caveat with loadable modules: the
code does not make any effort to ensure that the module is not unloaded
before all threads processed through AST handler in it. In fact, this
is already present behavior for hwpmc.ko and ufs.ko. I do not think it
is worth the efforts and the runtime overhead to try to fix it.
