Have pmcstat(8) and pmccontrol(8) use these APIs.
Return PMC class-related constants (PMC widths and capabilities)
with the OP GETCPUINFO call leaving OP PMCINFO to return only the
dynamic information associated with a PMC (i.e., whether enabled,
owner pid, reload count etc.).
Allow pmc_read() (i.e., OPS PMCRW) on active self-attached PMCs to
get upto-date values from hardware since we can guarantee that the
hardware is running the correct PMC at the time of the call.
Bug fixes:
- (x86 class processors) Fix a bug that prevented an RDPMC
instruction from being recognized as permitted till after the
attached process had context switched out and back in again after
a pmc_start() call.
Tighten the rules for using RDPMC class instructions: a GETMSR
OP is now allowed only after an OP ATTACH has been done by the
PMC's owner to itself. OP GETMSR is not allowed for PMCs that
track descendants, for PMCs attached to processes other than
their owner processes.
- (P4/HTT processors only) Fix a bug that caused the MI and MD
layers to get out of sync. Add a new MD operation 'get_config()'
as part of this fix.
- Allow multiple system-mode PMCs at the same row-index but on
different CPUs to be allocated.
- Reject allocation of an administratively disabled PMC.
Misc. code cleanups and refactoring. Improve a few comments.
are set when we attempt to remove a buffer from a queue we should panic.
Hopefully this will catch the source of the wrong bufobj panics.

needed only for implicit connect cases. Under load, especially on SMP,
this can greatly reduce contention on the tcbinfo lock.
NB: Ambiguities about the state of so_pcb need to be resolved so that
all use of the tcbinfo lock in non-implicit connection cases can be
eliminated.

the NTP server list.
The servers are by Internet Multifeed Co., and connected to their
IX service JPNAP. It would be a good NTP server for machines in Japan.
See also http://www.jst.mfeed.ad.jp/ for more details (Japanese only).

a new entry in the taskqueue struct each time it wakes up to see if it
should terminate
o adjust TASKQUEUE_DEFINE_THREAD & co. to record the thread/proc identity for
the shutdown rendezvous
o replace wakeup after adding a task to a queue with wakeup_one; this helps
queues where multiple threads are used to service tasks (e.g. acpi)
o remove NULL check of tq_enqueue method; it should never be NULL

a regular IPI vector, but this vector is blocked when interrupts are disabled.
With "options KDB_STOP_NMI" and debug.kdb.stop_cpus_with_nmi set, KDB will
send an NMI to each CPU instead. The code also has a context-stuffing
feature which helps ddb extract the state of processes running on the
stopped CPUs.
KDB_STOP_NMI is only useful with SMP and complains if SMP is not defined.
This feature only applies to i386 and amd64 at the moment, but could be
used on other architectures with the appropriate MD bits.
