26b6ea69c3 Add option ALT_BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER.
Implement the Solaris way to break into DDB over a serial console
instead of sending a break.  Sending the character sequence
CR ~ ^b will break the kernel into DDB (if DDB is enabled).

ab063af911 Move the MSG* and SEM* options to opt_sysvipc.h
Remove evil allocation macros from machdep.c (why was that there???) and
use malloc() instead.
Move paramters out of param.h and into the code itself.
Move a bunch of internal definitions from public sys/*.h headers (without
#ifdef _KERNEL even) into the code itself.

I had hoped to make some of this more dynamic, but the cost of doing
wakeups on all sleeping processes on old arrays was too frightening.
The other possibility is to initialize on the first use, and allow
dynamic sysctl changes to parameters right until that point. That would
allow /etc/rc.sysctl to change SEM* and MSG* defaults as we presently
do with SHM*, but without the nightmare of changing a running system.

a64ed08955 Introduce extended attribute support for FFS, allowing arbitrary
(name, value) pairs to be associated with inodes.  This support is
used for ACLs, MAC labels, and Capabilities in the TrustedBSD
security extensions, which are currently under development.

In this implementation, attributes are backed to data vnodes in the
style of the quota support in FFS.  Support for FFS extended
attributes may be enabled using the FFS_EXTATTR kernel option
(disabled by default).  Userland utilities and man pages will be
committed in the next batch.  VFS interfaces and man pages have
been in the repo since 4.0-RELEASE and are unchanged.

o ufs/ufs/extattr.h: UFS-specific extattr defines
o ufs/ufs/ufs_extattr.c: bulk of support routines
o ufs/{ufs,ffs,mfs}/*.[ch]: hooks and extattr.h includes
o contrib/softupdates/ffs_softdep.c: extattr.h includes
o conf/options, conf/files, i386/conf/LINT: added FFS_EXTATTR

o coda/coda_vfsops.c: XXX required extattr.h due to ufsmount.h
(This should not be the case, and will be fixed in a future commit)

Currently attributes are not supported in MFS.  This will be fixed.

255108f385 Make sysv-style shared memory tuneable params fully runtime adjustable
via sysctl.  It's done pretty simply but it should be quite adequate.
Also move SHMMAXPGS from $machine/include/vmparam.h as the comments that
went with it were wrong... we don't allocate KVM space for the pages so
that comment is bogus..  The only practical limit is how much physical
ram you want to lock up as this stuff isn't paged out or swap backed.

80060e8897 Connect the ISA and PCI compatability shims to an option. In this case
it's options COMPAT_OLDISA and COMPAT_OLDPCI.  This is meant to be a
fairly strong incentive to update the older drivers to newbus, but doesn't
(quite) leave anybody hanging with no hardware support.  I was talking with
a few folks and I was encouraged to simply break or disable the shims but
that was a bit too drastic for my liking.

71e4fff823 Retire MFS_ROOT and MFS_ROOT_SIZE options from the MFS implementation.
Add MD_ROOT and MD_ROOT_SIZE options to the md driver.

Make the md driver handle MFS_ROOT and MFS_ROOT_SIZE options for compatibility.

Add md driver to GENERIC, PCCARD and LINT.

This is a cleanup which removes the need for some of the worse hacks in
MFS:  We really want to have a rootvnode but MFS on a preloaded image
doesn't really have one.  md is a true device, so it is less trouble.

This has been tested with make release, and if people remember to add
the "md" pseudo-device to their kernels, PicoBSD should be just fine
as well.  If people have no other use for MFS, it can be removed from
the kernel.

At the same time, make the "boot -a" prompt both more able and more

1c7c3c6a86 This is a rather large commit that encompasses the new swapper,
changes to the VM system to support the new swapper, VM bug
    fixes, several VM optimizations, and some additional revamping of the
    VM code.  The specific bug fixes will be documented with additional
    forced commits.  This commit is somewhat rough in regards to code
    cleanup issues.

15a1057c46 Add 'options DEBUG_LOCKS', which stores extra information in struct
lock, and add some macros and function parameters to make sure that
the information get to the point where it can be put in the lock
structure.

While I'm here, add DEBUG_VFS_LOCKS to LINT.

f20a9c5af8 LKM kernel support becomes optional on "options LKM". (Bear in mind
that the default kernel is now ELF and cannot load these LKM's).

b8cf6ea776 Use a fast interrupt handler for the PCI version of the cy driver
if option CY_PCI_FASTINTR is configured and mapping the irq to a
fastintr is possible.  Unfortunately, this has to be optional because
pci_map_int_right() doesn't handle the INTR_EXCL flag right --
INTR_EXCL is honoured even if the interrupt needs to be non-exclusive
for other devices to work.

changing HZ used to break xntpd's PLL but it should be ok now (unless
xntpd is misconfigured).

86415b71f9 Back out last change to sysctl.
It was nay'ed before committing on the grounds that this is not
the way to do it, and has been decided as such several times in
the past.

There is not point in loading gobs of ascii into the kernel when
the only use of that ascii is presentation to the user.

Next thing we'd be adding all section 4 man pages to the loaded
kernel as well.

The argument about KLD's is bogus, klds can store a file in
/usr/share/doc/sysctl/dev/foo/thisvar.txt with a description and
sysctl or other facilities can pick it up there.

Proper documentation will take several K worth of text for many
sysctl variables, we don't want that in the kernel under any
circumstances.

I will welcome any well thought out attempt at improving the
situation wrt. sysctl documentation, but this wasn't it.

disables them if they're not wanted; in that case, sysctl_sysctl_descr will
always return an empty string.

c2906d55d0 Make timecounters more resistant to badly behaved SW/HW which locks
out interrupts for too long.  If you still see the "calcru: negative
time..." message you can increase NTIMECOUNTER (see LINT).

Sideeffect is that a timecounter is required to not wrap around in
less than (1 + delta) seconds instead of the (1/hz + delta) required
until now.
