Modify trapframe decoding to properly analyze trapframe.
Provide method for fixup_pc. It happens, that in some kernel
functions, the GDB stack frame decoder cannot determine both
func name and frame size. This is because these functions
either contain invalid instruction, or their format does
not match standard schema. Detect that scenarios and move
PC accordingly to jump into known function schema, which
GDB is able to parse.

- Add a kvaddr_type to represent kernel virtual addresses instead of
unsigned long.
- Add a struct kvm_nlist which is a stripped down version of struct nlist
that uses kvaddr_t for n_value.
- Add a kvm_native() routine that returns true if an open kvm descriptor
is for a native kernel and memory image.
- Add a kvm_open2() function similar to kvm_openfiles(). It drops the
unused 'swapfile' argument and adds a new function pointer argument for
a symbol resolving function. Native kernels still use _fdnlist() from
libc to resolve symbols if a resolver function is not supplied, but cross
kernels require a resolver.
- Add a kvm_nlist2() function similar to kvm_nlist() except that it uses
struct kvm_nlist instead of struct nlist.
- Add a kvm_read2() function similar to kvm_read() except that it uses
kvaddr_t instead of unsigned long for the kernel virtual address.
- Add a new kvm_arch switch of routines needed by a vmcore backend.
Each backend is responsible for implementing kvm_read2() for a given
vmcore format.
- Use libelf to read headers from ELF kernels and cores (except for
powerpc cores).
- Add internal helper routines for the common page offset hash table used
by the minidump backends.
- Port all of the existing kvm backends to implement a kvm_arch switch and
to be cross-friendly by using private constants instead of ones that
vary by platform (e.g. PAGE_SIZE). Static assertions are present when
a given backend is compiled natively to ensure the private constants
match the real ones.
- Enable all of the existing vmcore backends on all platforms. This means
that libkvm on any platform should be able to perform KVA translation
and read data from a vmcore of any platform.

out of 'struct pcb' and into a variable-sized region after the
structure. The kgdb code currently only reads the pcb. It does not
read in the FPU save area but instead passes stack garbage as the
FPU's saved context. Fixing this would mean determining the proper
size of the area and fetching it. However, this state is not saved
for running CPUs in stoppcbs[], so the callback would also have to
know to ignore those pcbs. Instead, just remove the call since it is
of limited usefulness. It results in kgdb reporting the state of the
FPU/SIMD registers in userland, not their current values in the kernel.
In particular, it does not report the correct state for any code in
the kernel which does use the FPU and would report incorrect values
in that case.

1. 50+% of NO_PIE use is fixed by adding -fPIC to INTERNALLIB and other
build-only utility libraries.
2. Another 40% is fixed by generating _pic.a variants of various libraries.
3. Some of the NO_PIE use is a bit absurd as it is disabling PIE (and ASLR)
where it never would work anyhow, such as csu or loader. This suggests
there may be better ways of adding support to the tree. Many of these
cases can be fixed such that -fPIE will work but there is really no
reason to have it in those cases.
4. Some of the uses are working around hacks done to some Makefiles that are
really building libraries but have been using bsd.prog.mk because the code
is cleaner. Had they been using bsd.lib.mk then NO_PIE would not have
been needed.
We likely do want to enable PIE by default (opt-out) for non-tree consumers
(such as ports). For in-tree though we probably want to only enable PIE
(opt-in) for common attack targets such as remote service daemons and setuid
utilities. This is also a great performance compromise since ASLR is expected
to reduce performance. As such it does not make sense to enable it in all
utilities such as ls(1) that have little benefit to having it enabled.

it should changed to opt-out and be enabled by default along with ASLR.
Each application Makefile uses opt-out to ensure that ASLR will be enabled by

standard core target by declaring coreops_suppress_target with
initializer. This is also happening for non-cross kgdb, by
virtue of having fbsd-threads.c in libgdb and having it do the
exact same thing. Since fbsd-threads.c is not included in in
libgdb when building a cross debugger, we ended up with more
than 1 core file targets (the standard gdb core file target and
kgdb's libkvm based core file target) and this behaves the same
as not having a core target at all.
When looking up the absolute path for a kld, call find_kld_path() first.
This enables locating the module in a different directory than the one
stored in kernel memory.
With this change, kgdb can now be run on a kernel & vmcore whose associated
modules are located in the same directory as the kernel. This makes
independent triaging of problems much easier.
This change also does not break the normal kgdb use case where no arguments
are specified; in that case kgdb loads the running kernel and its modules.

on a core, when the core was stopped, by calling kgdb_trgt_core_pcb().
This has 2 advantages:
1. We don't need to include a machine-specific header anymore and as
such kthr.c is truly machine independent. This allows the code to
be used in a cross-debugger.
2. We don't need to lookup stoppcbs in generic code when it's an
inherently target-spicific symbol. It does not exist for ia64.
Implement kgdb_trgt_core_pcb() for all architectures, except ia64, by
calling a common function called kgdb_trgt_stop_pcb(). This function
differs from kgdb_trgt_core_pcb() in that it gets the size of the PCB
structure as an argument and as such remains machine independent.
On ia64 the PCB for stopped cores is in the PCPU structure itself.
This for better scaling. The implementation of kgdb_trgt_core_pcb()
for ia64 uses the cpuid_to_pcpu[] array to to obtain the address of
the PCB structure.
This allows a remote session to be specified with '-r' as well as a
non-default baudrate setting using '-b'.

cpuset_t objects.
That is going to offer the underlying support for a simple bump of
MAXCPU and then support for number of cpus > 32 (as it is today).
Right now, cpumask_t is an int, 32 bits on all our supported architecture.
cpumask_t on the other side is implemented as an array of longs, and
easilly extendible by definition.
The architectures touched by this commit are the following:
- amd64
- i386
- pc98
- arm
- ia64
- XEN
while the others are still missing.
Userland is believed to be fully converted with the changes contained
here.
Some technical notes:
- This commit may be considered an ABI nop for all the architectures
different from amd64 and ia64 (and sparc64 in the future)
- per-cpu members, which are now converted to cpuset_t, needs to be
accessed avoiding migration, because the size of cpuset_t should be
considered unknown
- size of cpuset_t objects is different from kernel and userland (this is
primirally done in order to leave some more space in userland to cope
with KBI extensions). If you need to access kernel cpuset_t from the
userland please refer to example in this patch on how to do that
correctly (kgdb may be a good source, for example).
- Support for other architectures is going to be added soon
- Only MAXCPU for amd64 is bumped now
The patch has been tested by sbruno and Nicholas Esborn on opteron
4 x 12 pack CPUs. More testing on big SMP is expected to came soon.
pluknet tested the patch with his 8-ways on both amd64 and i386.
