And if we abort processing, this causes LOR. Changed to force the

"0" cannot be a correct value since when the function is entered at least
one shared holder must be present and since we want the last one "1" is
the correct value.
Note that lock_profiling for sx locks is far from being perfect.
Expect further fixes for that.

patch:
- Do the correct test for ldt allocation
- Drop dt_lock just before to call kmem_free (since it acquires blocking
locks inside)
- Solve a deadlock with smp_rendezvous() where other CPU will wait
undefinitively for dt_lock acquisition.
- Add dt_lock in the WITNESS list of spinlocks
While applying these modifies, change the requirement for user_ldt_free()
making that returning without dt_lock held.

huge differences between these two major versions.
It's much less risky now, and it's also high time that we mentioned

It is disabled by default. You need to put
LOADER_FIREWIRE_SUPPORT=yes in /etc/make.conf
and rebuild loader to enable it.
(cd /sys/boot/i386 && make clean && make && make install)
You can find a short introduction of dcons at

as to the type of the command argument: int -> u_long.
These types have different widths in the 64-bit world.
Add a note to UPDATING because the change breaks KBI

stop looking there for things like rc.d and periodic. This avoids
duplicating effort when /usr/X11R6 is a symlink to /usr/local,
which it is by default now.
It is not anticipated at this time that we will MFC this change, since
we'd like to avoid breaking legacy systems. However, there is a fix for
/etc/rc.subr in the works to avoid running any rc.d scripts twice which
we should be able to MFC.
