a proper solution.
- Add a dummy entry point which just calls the C entry points, and try to make
sure it's the first code in the binary.
- Copy a bit more than func_end to try to copy the whole load_kernel()
function. gcc4 puts code behind the func_end symbol.

framework for non-MPSAFE network protocols:
- Remove debug_mpsafenet variable, sysctl, and tunable.
- Remove NET_NEEDS_GIANT() and associate SYSINITSs used by it to force
debug.mpsafenet=0 if non-MPSAFE protocols are compiled into the kernel.
- Remove logic to automatically flag interrupt handlers as non-MPSAFE if
debug.mpsafenet is set for an INTR_TYPE_NET handler.
- Remove logic to automatically flag netisr handlers as non-MPSAFE if
debug.mpsafenet is set.
- Remove references in a few subsystems, including NFS and Cronyx drivers,
which keyed off debug_mpsafenet to determine various aspects of their own
locking behavior.
- Convert NET_LOCK_GIANT(), NET_UNLOCK_GIANT(), and NET_ASSERT_GIANT into
no-op's, as their entire behavior was determined by the value in
debug_mpsafenet.
- Alias NET_CALLOUT_MPSAFE to CALLOUT_MPSAFE.
Many remaining references to NET_.*_GIANT() and NET_CALLOUT_MPSAFE are still
present in subsystems, and will be removed in followup commits.

day of week field correctly, or they remember bad values that are
written into the day of week field. For this reason, ignore the day
of week field when reading the clock on i386 rather than bailing if
it is set incorrectly.
Problems were seen on a number of platforms, including VMWare, qemu,
EPIA ME6000, Epox-3PTA and ABIT-SL30T.
This is a slightly different fix to that proposed by Ted in his PR,
but the same basic idea.

should call uma_zfree() with various spinlock helds. Rearranging the
code would not help here because we cannot break atomicity respect
prcess spinlock, so the only one choice we have is to defer the operation.
In order to do this use a global queue synchronized through the kse_lock
spinlock which is freed at any thread_alloc() / thread_wait() through a
call to thread_reap().
Note that this approach is not ideal as we should want a per-process
list of zombie upcalls, but it follows initial guidelines of KSE authors.

scope security check for the UDPv6 socket credential lookup service,
allowing security policies to bound access to credential information.
While not an immediate issue for Jail, which doesn't allow use of UDPv6,
this may be relevant to other security policies that may wish to control
ident lookups.
While here, eliminate a very unlikely panic case, in which a socket in
the process of being freed is inspected by the sysctl.

1. The default access control lists (acls) are not being
correctly set. If not set anyone can make recursive queries
and/or query the cache contents.

2. The DNS query id generation is vulnerable to cryptographic
analysis which provides a 1 in 8 chance of guessing the next
query id for 50% of the query ids. This can be used to perform
cache poisoning by an attacker.
This bug only affects outgoing queries, generated by BIND 9 to
answer questions as a resolver, or when it is looking up data
for internal uses, such as when sending NOTIFYs to slave name
servers.
All users are encouraged to upgrade.

to repeat if you had more than two keys down at any given time (which
happened to me all the time with emacs).
This is taken from PR 110681, although what URATAN Shigenobu describes
there is different than the pathology that I have been seeing. I'm
seeing this only in X, while he sees it on his console, yet I think
the two problems are related. I've also reworked the patch slightly
to conform to the coding standards of adjacent code.
It is unclear to me if this merely masks the maddening bug that I have
seen, or if this is a real fix. I typically see the problem when I'm
typing fast in emacs and using lots of motion keys (meta and control).
In either case, my workstation at work again is finally useful with
this patch.

- re-add back inpcb_bind local address check bypass capability
- Fix it so sctp_opt_info is independant of assoc_id postion.
- Fix cookie life set to use MSEC_TO_TICKS() macro.
- asconf changes
o More comment changes/clarifications related to the old local address
"not" list which is now an explicit restricted list.
o Rename some functions for clarity:
- sctp_add/del_local_addr_assoc to xxx_local_addr_restricted()
- asconf related iterator functions to sctp_asconf_iterator_xxx()
o Fix bug when the same address is deleted and added (and removed from
the asconf queue) where the ifa is "freed" twice refcount wise,
possibly freeing it completely.
o Fix bug in output where the first ASCONF would not go out after the
last address is changed (e.g. only goes out when retransmitted).
o Fix bug where multiple ASCONFs can be bundled in the same packet with
the and with the same serial numbers.
o Fix asconf stcb iterator to not send ASCONF until after all work
queue entries have been processed.
o Change behavior so that when the last address is deleted (auto asconf
on a bound all endpoint) no action is taken until an address is
added; at that time, an ASCONF add+delete is sent (if the assoc
is still up).
o Fix local address counting so that address scoping is taken into
account.
o #ifdef SCTP_TIMER_BASED_ASCONF the old timer triggered sending
of ASCONF (after an RTO). The default now is to send
ASCONF immediately (except for the case of changing/deleting the
last usable address).
