Each list describes a logical memory object that is backed by one or more
physical address ranges. To minimize locking, the sglist objects
themselves are immutable once they are shared.
These objects may be used in the future to facilitate I/O requests using
physically-addressed buffers. For the immediate future I plan to use them
to implement a new type of VM object and pager.

Additively implements adaptive spininning for sx held in shared mode.
The spinning limit can be handled through sysctls in order to be tuned

The hypervisor doesn't provide a single "TOD" - it instead provides a
"start time" and a "running time". These are added together to form
the current TOD. The TOD is in UTC.
This RTC is only (initially) designed to be read at startup. There's
some further poking that needs to happen to pick up hypervisor time
changes (ie, by the Dom0 time being adjusted by something). This
time adjustment currently can cause "weird stuff" in the DomU clock;
I'll begin investigating and repairing that in subsequent commits.

- For CPUs that only support MCE (the machine check exception) but not MCA
(i.e. Pentium), all this does is print out the value of the machine check
registers and then panic when a machine check exception occurs.
- For CPUs that support MCA (the machine check architecture), the support is
a bit more involved.
- First, there is limited support for decoding the CPU-independent MCA
error codes in the kernel, and the kernel uses this to output a short
description of any machine check events that occur.
- When a machine check exception occurs, all of the MCx banks on the
current CPU are scanned and any events are reported to the console
before panic'ing.
- To catch events for correctable errors, a periodic timer kicks off a
task which scans the MCx banks on all CPUs. The frequency of these
checks is controlled via the "hw.mca.interval" sysctl.
- Userland can request an immediate scan of the MCx banks by writing
a non-zero value to "hw.mca.force_scan".
- If any correctable events are encountered, the appropriate details
are stored in a 'struct mca_record' (defined in <machine/mca.h>).
The "hw.mca.count" is a count of such records and each record may
be queried via the "hw.mca.records" tree by specifying the record
index (0 .. count - 1) as the next name in the MIB similar to using
PIDs with the kern.proc.* sysctls. The idea is to export machine
check events to userland for more detailed processing.
- The periodic timer and hw.mca sysctls are only present if the CPU
supports MCA.

I really don't want any pieces of code to include ioctl_compat.h, so let
the ibcs2 and svr4 compat leave sgtty alone. If they want to support
sgtty, they should emulate it on top of termios, not sgtty.
The code has been marked with BURN_BRIDGES for a long time. ibcs2 and
svr4 are not really popular pieces of code anyway.
previously always pointing to the default vnet context, to a
dynamically changing thread-local one. The currvnet context
should be set on entry to networking code via CURVNET_SET() macros,
and reverted to previous state via CURVNET_RESTORE(). Recursions
on curvnet are permitted, though strongly discuouraged.
This change should have no functional impact on nooptions VIMAGE
kernel builds, where CURVNET_* macros expand to whitespace.
The curthread->td_vnet (aka curvnet) variable's purpose is to be an
indicator of the vnet context in which the current network-related
operation takes place, in case we cannot deduce the current vnet
context from any other source, such as by looking at mbuf's
m->m_pkthdr.rcvif->if_vnet, sockets's so->so_vnet etc. Moreover, so
far curvnet has turned out to be an invaluable consistency checking
aid: it helps to catch cases when sockets, ifnets or any other
vnet-aware structures may have leaked from one vnet to another.
The exact placement of the CURVNET_SET() / CURVNET_RESTORE() macros
was a result of an empirical iterative process, whith an aim to
reduce recursions on CURVNET_SET() to a minimum, while still reducing
the scope of CURVNET_SET() to networking only operations - the
alternative would be calling CURVNET_SET() on each system call entry.
In general, curvnet has to be set in three typicall cases: when
processing socket-related requests from userspace or from within the
kernel; when processing inbound traffic flowing from device drivers
to upper layers of the networking stack, and when executing
timer-driven networking functions.
This change also introduces a DDB subcommand to show the list of all
vnet instances.
