improve boot performance; this produces arguably astonishing (non-)results
if /etc/rc.conf is modified during the boot process.
Since performance considerations make it infeasible to automatically detect
if the cached /etc/rc.conf parameters should be invalidated, provide a
mechanism for explicitly requesting that /etc/rc.conf be reloaded: Catch
SIGALRM and reload /etc/rc.conf if it is received.

class respectively. These can be used for various kinds of tx traffic
throttling (to force selected tx queues to drain at a fixed Kbps rate,
or a % of the port's total bandwidth, or at a fixed pps rate, etc.).

On FreeBSD lldb sometimes reloads the the main module's (executable's)
symbols at the wrong address. Work around this for now by explicitly
reloading at base_address=0 when it happens.
A proper fix is needed but early testers have reported this issue so
this workaround should allow them to make further progress.

This is to support LOCK_LOG_* functionality effectively in debugging
environments but it is overkill because really LOCK_DEBUG should be on
only if (KTR_COMPILE & KTR_LOCK) is true.
Fix this by applying the correct logic.
In this process, move the KTR classes to its own header to reduce
namespace pollution.

for these chipsets.
* Correctly set the active/passive flag in the scan request - this is
NOT a "is the channel active|passive"; it's to do with whether we
have an SSID to actively scan for or not. The firmware takes care
of the active/passive setup of the channel.
* Calculate the active/passive dwell time based on the beacon interval
and the channel mode, rather than using a hard coded value.
* For now, hardcode the scan service_time. It's defined as:
31:22 - number of beacon intervals to come back onto the home channel
for;
0:21 - time (microseconds) to come back onto the home channel for.
When doing an active scan when the NIC is active (whether we're associated
or not - it only matters if we've setup the NIC to a destination or not)
this determines how much time to stay on the home channel for when
scanning. We can tune this based on the amount of active traffic.
For now it's 4 beacon intervals and 100 microseconds.
* Fix the "good crc threshold" setting. It differs based on the NIC
firmware. Some older firmware required a workaround; the later
firmware instead treats the field as a flag.
* Enforce that we are not sending a scan command if one is already
pending. Any time this is done is a bug and it absolutely needs
to be fixed - so be very loud.
* Add the SCAN flag to a few debug messages that are scan related but
only occuring under STATE.
Now, this does get noisy when you're scanning in an actively busy 2GHz
network as the firmware (for reason I don't quite yet understand) seems
hell bent on staying on some passive channels longer than it should.
However, it should eventually recover and complete the scan.
This is a work in progress; please let me know if things get stuck or
if things improve!

TX ring according to what the firmware requires.
The firmware requires A-MPDU sub-frames to be at a very specific ring
offset - that is, the ring slot offset should be (seqno % 256.)
This holds for every NIC I've tested thus far except the 4965,
which starts erroring out here shortly before the firmware panics.
Which is good, it's doing what it's supposed to (read: capture that
we've screwed up somewhere.)
The specifics about getting this stuff right:
* the initial seqno allocation should match up with the ringid.
* .. yes, this means we can start at a ring offset that isn't zero.
* .. because we program the start seqno in the firmware message
to setup the AC.
* The initial seqno allocation may be non-zero _and_ frames may be
being transmitted during a-mpdu negotiation. I faced similar
issues on ath(4) and had to software queue frames to that node+TID
during A-MPDU negotiation.
* seqno allocation should be in lockstep with ring increments.
* If we fail to transmit some segment, no, we shouldn't reuse that
ring slot. We should just transmit a BAR (which we aren't yet
doing, sigh) and move onto the next seqno.
* In theory there shouldn't be any holes in the seqno space when
we are transmitting frames.
Tested:
* 4965 (throws problems, so yes we have to fix this);
* 5100 (seems ok);
* 6200 (seems ok);
* 2200 (seems ok);
* 2230 (seems ok).

MACHINE_ARCH values whose binaries this kernel can run. This patch provides
a feature requested for implementing pkgng ABI identifiers in a robust
way.
The list is designed to indicate whether, say, an i386 package can be run on
the current system. If kern.supported_abis contains "i386", then the answer
is yes. Otherwise, the answer is no.
At the moment, this only supports MACHINE_ARCH and MACHINE_ARCH32. As we
gain support for more interesting combinations, this needs to become more
flexible, possibily through the sysent framework, along with the
hw.machine_arch emulation immediately preceding this code in kern_mib.c.
