it to the MI area. KSE touched cpu_wait() which had the same change
replicated five ways for each platform. Now it can just do it once.
The only MD parts seemed to be dealing with fpu state cleanup and things
like vm86 cleanup on x86. The rest was identical.
XXX: ia64 and powerpc did not have cpu_throw(), so I've put a functional
stub in place.

o Introduce private types for use in linux syscalls for two reasons:
1. establish type independence for ease in porting and,
2. provide a visual queue as to which syscalls have proper
prototypes to further cleanup the i386/alpha split.
Linuxulator types are prefixed by 'l_'. void and char have not
been "virtualized".
o Provide dummy functions for all syscalls and remove dummy functions
or implementations of truely obsolete syscalls.
o Sanitize the shm*, sem* and msg* syscalls.
o Make a first attempt to implement the linux_sysctl syscall. At this
time it only returns one MIB (KERN_VERSION), but most importantly,
it tells us when we need to add additional sysctls :-)
o Bump the kenel version up to 2.4.2 (this is not the same as the
KERN_VERSION MIB, BTW).
o Implement new syscalls, of which most are specific to i386. Our
syscall table is now up to date with Linux 2.4.2. Some highlights:
- Implement the 32-bit uid_t and gid_t bases syscalls.
- Implement a couple of 64-bit file size/offset bases syscalls.
o Fix or improve numerous syscalls and prototypes.
o Reduce style(9) violations while I'm here. Especially indentation
inconsistencies within the same file are addressed. Re-indenting
did not obfuscate actual changes to the extend that it could not
be combined.
NOTE: I spend some time testing these changes and found that if there
were regressions, they were not caused by these changes AFAICT.
It was observed that installing a RH 7.1 runtime environment
did make matters worse. Hangs and/or reboots have been observed
with and without these changes, so when it failed to make life
better in cases it doesn't look like it made it worse.

o Remove dummy functions for syscalls that are now truely
unimplemented.
o Rename syscalls so they match the names used in the Linux kernel.
Also, provide more accurate prototypes. This generally improves
cross-referencing and reduces head-scratching.
o Provide seperate implementations for the 16-bit uid_t and gid_t
based syscalls as Linux used to have. The new 32-bit uid_t and
gid_t based syscalls now map to their FreeBSD equivalents.
o Fix the linux_ipc syscall so that it doesn't force the shm*, sem*
and msg* syscalls to have the same syscall. The prototypes for
these syscalls now match the those used on Alpha. While here,
add the same kludge for MSGRCV as is present in the Linux kernel.
o Implement the following syscalls:
linux_stat64, linux_lstat64 and linux_fstat64
linux_sysctl
o Added syscalls numbered 198 - 221. This include:
- the 32-bit uid_t and gid_t bases syscalls
- 64-bit file offset/size based syscalls
the following bugs.
- When constructing a resource configuration, respect the order
in which resource descriptors are read, in order to establish
the correct mapping between the descriptors and configuration
registers.

Instead introduce the [M] prefix to existing keywords. e.g.
MSTD is the MP SAFE version of STD. This is prepatory for a
massive Giant lock pushdown. The old MPSAFE keyword made
syscalls.master too messy.
Begin comments MP-Safe procedures with the comment:
/*
* MPSAFE
*/
This comments means that the procedure may be called without
Giant held (The procedure itself may still need to obtain
Giant temporarily to do its thing).
sv_prepsyscall() is now MP SAFE and assumed to be MP SAFE
sv_transtrap() is now MP SAFE and assumed to be MP SAFE
ktrsyscall() and ktrsysret() are now MP SAFE (Giant Pushdown)
trapsignal() is now MP SAFE (Giant Pushdown)
Places which used to do the if (mtx_owned(&Giant)) mtx_unlock(&Giant)
test in syscall[2]() in */*/trap.c now do not. Instead they
explicitly unlock Giant if they previously obtained it, and then
assert that it is no longer held to catch broken system calls.
Rebuild syscall tables.
o Unify <machine/endian.h>'s across all architectures.
o Make bswapXX() functions use a different spelling of u_int16_t and
friends to reduce namespace pollution. The bswapXX() functions
don't actually exist, but we'll probably import these at some
point. Atleast one driver (if_de) depends on bswapXX() for big
endian cases.
o Deprecate byteorder(3) prototypes from <sys/types.h>, these are
now prototyped indirectly in <arpa/inet.h>.
o Deprecate in_addr_t and in_port_t typedefs in <sys/types.h>, these
are now typedef'd in <arpa/inet.h>.
o Change byteorder(3) prototypes to use standards compliant uint32_t
(spelled __uint32_t to reduce namespace pollution).
o Document new preferred headers and standards compliance.

multiple times, others do. The last strategy, which was to assume
that already routed interrupts were good and just return them doesn't
work for some laptops. So, instead, we have a new strategy: we notice
that we have an interrupt that's already routed. We go ahead and try
to route it, none the less. We will assume that it is correctly
routed, even if the route fails. We still assume that other failures
in the bios32 call are because the interrupt is NOT routed.
Note: some laptops do not support the bios32 interface to PCI BIOS and
we need to call it via the INT 2A interface. That is another windmill
to till at later.
Also correct a minor typo and minor whitespace nits.
Strong MFC candidate.
level implementation stuff out of machine/globaldata.h to avoid exposing
UPAGES to lots more places. The end result is that we can double
the kernel stack size with 'options UPAGES=4' etc.
This is mainly being done for the benefit of a MFC to RELENG_4 at some
point. -current doesn't really need this so much since each interrupt
runs on its own kstack.
then one can restart from a panic by resetting the panicstr variable to
NULL. This commit conditionalizes the previously committed functionality
on this variable. It also removes the __dead2 attribute from the panic()
function so that when one continues from a panic() the behavior will
be predictable.
