This reduces build output, need for recalculating paths, and makes it clearer
which paths are relative to what areas in the source tree. The change in
performance over a locally mounted UFS filesystem was negligible in my testing,
but this may more positively impact other filesystems like NFS.
LIBC_SRCTOP was left alone so Juniper (and other users) can continue to
manipulate lib/libc/Makefile (and other Makefile.inc's under lib/libc) as
include Makefiles with custom options.

The initial value of NOASM is nearly the same in all cases and the

Right now, userspace (fast) gettimeofday(2) on x86 only works for
RDTSC. For older machines, like Core2, where RDTSC is not C2/C3
invariant, and which fall to HPET hardware, this means that the call
has both the penalty of the syscall and of the uncached hw behind the
QPI or PCIe connection to the sought bridge. Nothing can me done
against the access latency, but the syscall overhead can be removed.
System already provides mappable /dev/hpetX devices, which gives
straight access to the HPET registers page.
Add yet another algorithm to the x86 'vdso' timehands. Libc is updated
to handle both RDTSC and HPET. For HPET, the index of the hpet device
to mmap is passed from kernel to userspace, index might be changed and
libc invalidates its mapping as needed.
Remove cpu_fill_vdso_timehands() KPI, instead require that
timecounters which can be used from userspace, to provide
tc_fill_vdso_timehands{,32}() methods. Merge i386 and amd64
libc/<arch>/sys/__vdso_gettc.c into one source file in the new
libc/x86/sys location. __vdso_gettc() internal interface is changed
to move timecounter algorithm detection into the MD code.
Measurements show that RDTSC even with the syscall overhead is faster
than userspace HPET access. But still, userspace HPET is three-four
times faster than syscall HPET on several Core2 and SandyBridge
machines.

It also make passing an invalid address to pipe(2) return EFAULT rather

While here fix a bug found by this in the hard-float code, cc is the
opposite of cs. The former is used for 'less than' in floating-point code
and is executed when the C (carry) bit is clear, the latter is used when
greater than, equal, or unordered, and is executed when the C bit is set.
pwrite(2) syscalls are wrapped to provide compatibility with pre-7.x
kernels which required padding before the off_t parameter. The
fcntl(2) contains compatibility code to handle kernels before the
struct flock was changed during the 8.x CURRENT development. The
shims were reasonable to allow easier revert to the older kernel at
that time.
Now, two or three major releases later, shims do not serve any
purpose. Such old kernels cannot handle current libc, so revert the
compatibility code.
Make padded syscalls support conditional under the COMPAT6 config
option. For COMPAT32, the syscalls were under COMPAT6 already.
Remove WITHOUT_SYSCALL_COMPAT build option, which only purpose was to
(partially) disable the removed shims.

The dl_unwind_find_exidx() name is used by other BSD projects and Android,
and is mentioned in clang 3.5 comments as "the BSD interface" for finding
exidx data. GCC (in libgcc_s) expects the exact same API and functionality

armv6hf targets the VFP variant of the ARM EABI and our copy of gcc is too

In addition, without an external toolchain, the following need to be left
