kill a process, when the system runs out of memory. Defaults to off.
Usually, this is most useful when the OOM condition is due to mismanagement
of memory, on a system where the applications in question don't respond well
to being killed.
In theory, if the system is properly managed, it shouldn't be possible to
hit this condition. If it does, the panic can be more desirable for some
users (since it can be a good means of finding the root cause) rather than
killing the largest process and continuing on its merry way.
As kib@ mentions in the differential, there is also protect(1), which uses
procctl(PROC_SPROTECT) to ensure that some processes are immune. However,
a panic approach is still useful in some environments. This is primarily
intended as a development/debugging tool.

of an vm space may require obtaining sleepable locks. Hold the
process to keep the pointer valid, and change trylock to lock, since
there is no longer two process locks owned simultaneously in
vm_pageout_oom().
Note that after the process lock is dropped, process might exec, and
no longer qualify as the owner of biggest vm space.

This is a temporary workaround until the elftoolchain's version
of strip is fixed:
The previous (GNU) strip, when acting on a file with multiple links,
would modify the one and only file in place (which means creating
a new stripped copy, and then writing it back to the original).
The new version from elftoolchain creates the new file and then
unlinks the old one and renames the new.
With multiple hard links, the original remains alive. In the /stand
directory, this ends up creating 80+ copies of the same file.
It tests that all FIBs get a static IPv6 loopback route.

Addr2line is not required for the build, and a per-arch binary is no
longer required with the switch to the ELF Tool Chain. However, building
these tools during the cross tools stage can be useful for developers
who cross build HEAD from stable/10, and adds very little to the build
time.

The core kernel part is patch file utimes.2008.4.diff from
pluknet@FreeBSD.org. I updated the code for API changes, added the manual
page and added compatibility code for old kernels. There is also audit and
Capsicum support.
A new UTIME_* constant might allow setting birthtimes in future.

if used to create more than one disk image format, can
result in accidental pollution of the target formatted
disk image.
Instead of using a single VMBASE image (vm.img, by
default), use a single base file for each format, named
as VMFORMAT.img, which produces VMBASE.VMFORMAT as the
final formatted image.

"nooption", and "nooptions" keywords can all take a

did not allow lists for "nooption" and "nooptions", only
single values. This commit fixes the yacc code to allow
comma separated values for all the above keywords.

Instead, just note the end and do the subtraction at runtime.
