take a timeval indicating when the packet was captured. Move
microtime() to the calling functions and grab the timestamp as soon
as we know that we're going to call catchpacket at least once.
This means that we call microtime() once per matched packet, as
opposed to once per matched packet per bpf listener. It also means
that we return the same timestamp to all bpf listeners, rather than
slightly different ones.
It would be more accurate to call microtime() even earlier for all
packets, as you have to grab (1+#listener) locks before you can
determine if the packet will be logged. You could always grab a
timestamp before the locks, but microtime() can be costly, so this
didn't seem like a good idea.
(I guess most ethernet interfaces will have a bpf listener these
days because of dhclient. That means that we could be doing two bpf
locks on most packets going through the interface.)

tear-down by sofree() when all references to a socket evaporate after
an earlier call to abort or close the socket. This means detach is now
an unconditional teardown of a socket, whereas previously sockets could
persist after detach of the protocol retained a reference.
This faciliates sharing mutexes between layers of the network stack as

the mutex will no longer be required by the socket layer after

system's machine-dependent and machine-independent layers. Once
pmap_clear_write() is implemented on all of our supported
architectures, I intend to replace all calls to pmap_page_protect() by
calls to pmap_clear_write(). Why? Both the use and implementation of
pmap_page_protect() in our virtual memory system has subtle errors,
specifically, the management of execute permission is broken on some
architectures. The "prot" argument to pmap_page_protect() should
behave differently from the "prot" argument to other pmap functions.
Instead of meaning, "give the specified access rights to all of the
physical page's mappings," it means "don't take away the specified
access rights from all of the physical page's mappings, but do take
away the ones that aren't specified." However, owing to our i386
legacy, i.e., no support for no-execute rights, all but one invocation
of pmap_page_protect() specifies VM_PROT_READ only, when the intent
is, in fact, to remove only write permission. Consequently, a
faithful implementation of pmap_page_protect(), e.g., ia64, would
remove execute permission as well as write permission. On the other
hand, some architectures that support execute permission have
basically ignored whether or not VM_PROT_EXECUTE is passed to
pmap_page_protect(), e.g., amd64 and sparc64. This change represents
the first step in replacing pmap_page_protect() by the less subtle
pmap_clear_write() that is already implemented on amd64, i386, and
sparc64.

loading for the QLogic cards.
Because isp(4) exists before the root is mounted, it's not really
possible for us to use the kernel's linker to load modules directly
from disk- that's really too bad.
However, the this is still a net win in in that the firmware has
been split up on a per chip (and in some cases, functionality)
basis, so the amount of stuff loaded *can* be substantially less
than the 1.5MB of firmware images that ispfw now manages. That is,
each specific f/w set is now also built as a module. For example,
QLogic 2322 f/w is built as isp_2322.ko and Initiator/Target 1080
firmware is built as isp_1080_it.ko.
For compatibility purposes (i.e., to perturb folks the least), we
also still build all of the firmware as one ispfw.ko module.
This allows us to let 'ispfw_LOAD' keep on working in existing
loader.conf files. If you now want to strip this down to just
the firmware for your h/w, you can then change loader.conf to
load the f/w you specifically want.
We also still allow for ispfw to be statically built (e.g., for
PAE and sparc64).
Future changes will look at f/w unloading and also role switching
