These zones have slab size == sizeof(struct pcpu), but request from VM
enough pages to fit (uk_slabsize * mp_ncpus). An item allocated from such
zone would have a separate twin for each CPU in the system, and these twins
are at a distance of sizeof(struct pcpu) from each other. This magic value
of distance would allow us to make some optimizations later.
To address private item from a CPU simple arithmetics should be used:
item = (type *)((char *)base + sizeof(struct pcpu) * curcpu)
These arithmetics are available as zpcpu_get() macro in pcpu.h.
To introduce non-page size slabs a new field had been added to uma_keg
uk_slabsize. This shifted some frequently used fields of uma_keg to the
fourth cache line on amd64. To mitigate this pessimization, uma_keg fields
were a bit rearranged and least frequently used uk_name and uk_link moved
down to the fourth cache line. All other fields, that are dereferenced
frequently fit into first three cache lines.

The scope of these callbacks is primarily to support actions that affect the
taskqueue's thread environments. They are entirely optional, and
consequently are introduced as a new API: taskqueue_set_callback().
This interface allows the caller to specify that a taskqueue requires a
callback and optional context pointer for a given callback type.
The callback types included in this commit can be used to register a
constructor and destructor for thread-local storage using osd(9). This
allows a particular taskqueue to define that its threads require a specific
type of TLS, without the need for a specially-orchestrated task-based
mechanism for startup and shutdown in order to accomplish it.
Two callback types are supported at this point:
- TASKQUEUE_CALLBACK_TYPE_INIT, called by every thread when it starts, prior
to processing any tasks.
- TASKQUEUE_CALLBACK_TYPE_SHUTDOWN, called by every thread when it exits,
after it has processed its last task but before the taskqueue is
reclaimed.
While I'm here:
- Add two new macros, TQ_ASSERT_LOCKED and TQ_ASSERT_UNLOCKED, and use them
in appropriate locations.
- Fix taskqueue.9 to mention taskqueue_start_threads(), which is a required
interface for all consumers of taskqueue(9).

This change allows creating file descriptors with close-on-exec set in some
situations. SOCK_CLOEXEC and SOCK_NONBLOCK can be OR'ed in socket() and
socketpair()'s type parameter, and MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC to recvmsg() makes file
descriptors (SCM_RIGHTS) atomically close-on-exec.
The numerical values for SOCK_CLOEXEC and SOCK_NONBLOCK are as in NetBSD.
MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC is the first free bit for MSG_*.
The SOCK_* flags are not passed to MAC because this may cause incorrect
failures and can be done later via fcntl() anyway. On the other hand, audit
is expected to cope with the new flags.
For MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC, unp_externalize() is extended to take a flags
argument.

Switch eventtimers(9) from using struct bintime to sbintime_t.
Even before this not a single driver really supported full dynamic range of

This should fix kern/173584 too. Setting hw.cxgbe.fw_install=2 will
mostly do what was requested in the PR but it's a bit more intelligent
in that it won't reinstall the same firmware repeatedly if the knob is
left set.
