format modules, which are currently only used on the amd64 platform.
This initial implementation just parses enough of the module to
allow it to extract dependencies and load all the bits into the
right place in memory, so the kernel must still do the full relocation
and linking. The details of the loaded sections are passed to the
kernel by supplying a copy of the ELF section header table as module
metadata with the MODINFOMD_SHDR tag.
fills its field (6 characters). In that case the OEMID is not
null-terminated, and the sprintf that was used would copy up to the
next null byte, which could be pretty far away.
switch to using C99-style comments everywhere in preprocessed
assembler. The reason is that lines starting with the regexp
'^[[:space:]]#' are treated as preprocessing directives, and
while it seems to work now with GCC, it's not necessarily has
to work. Use C99 comments `//' for the trailing comments to
save whitespace.
- do not use PROG for what's not a real C program,
- use sys.mk transformation rules where possible,
- only create the "machine" symlink on AMD64,
- removed MAINTAINER lines in individual makefiles,
- added the LIBSTAND defitinion to <bsd.libnames.mk>,
- somewhat better contents in .depend files.

use a bounce buffer for the actual transfer to avoid crossing a 64k
boundary. To do this, we malloc a buffer twice as big as we need and then
find an aligned block within that buffer to do the transfer. The check
to see which part of the block we use used the wrong variable for part of
the condition meaning that in certain edge cases we would ask the BIOS to
cross a 64k boundary. The BIOS request would then fail resulting in file
transfers that just magically fail in the middle without any apparent
reason. Specifically, my tests for the splitfs boot floppies managed to
trigger this edge case.

the terminating '\0'. Since the initialisation of rootpath in
libstand/bootp.c may copy junk into the rest of the buffer, it was
possible for the code to find a ':' after the '\0' and do the wrong
thing.

things over floppy size limits, I can exclude it for release builds or
something like that. Most of the changes are to get the load_elf.c file
into a seperate elf32_ or elf64_ namespace so that you can have two
ELF loaders present at once. Note that for 64 bit kernels, it actually
starts up the kernel already in 64 bit mode with paging enabled. This
is really easy because we have a known minimum feature set.
Of note is that for amd64, we have to pass in the bios int 15 0xe821
memory map because once in long mode, you absolutely cannot make VM86
calls. amd64 does not use 'struct bootinfo' at all. It is a pure loader
metadata startup, just like sparc64 and powerpc. Much of the
infrastructure to support this was adapted from sparc64.
* AcpiOsDerivePciId(): finds a bus number, given the slot/func and the
acpi parse tree.
* AcpiOsPredefinedOverride(): use the sysctl hw.acpi.os_name to
override the value for _OS.

Move the remaining bits of <sys/diskslice.h> to <i386/include/bootinfo.h>
Move i386/pc98 specific bits from <sys/reboot.h> to
<i386/include/bootinfo.h> as well.
Adjust includes in sys/boot accordingly.
Peter had repocopied sys/disklabel.h to sys/diskpc98.h and sys/diskmbr.h.
These two new copies are still intact copies of disklabel.h and
therefore protected by #ifndef _SYS_DISKLABEL_H_ so #including them
in programs which already include <sys.disklabel.h> is currently a
no-op.
This commit adds a number of such #includes.
Once I have verified that I have fixed all the places which need fixing,
I will commit the updated versions of the three #include files.

Fix device hints entry for disabling acpi(4).
This also should fix the arbitration with apm(4) when both drivers
are enabled.
Note that your /boot/device.hints needs to be updated if you want to
stop auto-loading acpi.ko or disable acpi(4).
this was quite broken, it never was updated for metadata support.
The a.out kld file support was never really used, as it wasn't necessary.
You could always load elf kld's, even in an a.out kernel.
Add definition of COMPILER_DEPENDENT_INT64 and also
fix definition of COMPILER_DEPENDENT_UINT64.

filesystem expands the inode to 256 bytes to make space for 64-bit
block pointers. It also adds a file-creation time field, an ability
to use jumbo blocks per inode to allow extent like pointer density,
and space for extended attributes (up to twice the filesystem block
size worth of attributes, e.g., on a 16K filesystem, there is space
for 32K of attributes). UFS2 fully supports and runs existing UFS1
filesystems. New filesystems built using newfs can be built in either
UFS1 or UFS2 format using the -O option. In this commit UFS1 is
the default format, so if you want to build UFS2 format filesystems,
you must specify -O 2. This default will be changed to UFS2 when
UFS2 proves itself to be stable. In this commit the boot code for
reading UFS2 filesystems is not compiled (see /sys/boot/common/ufsread.c)
as there is insufficient space in the boot block. Once the size of the
boot block is increased, this code can be defined.
Things to note: the definition of SBSIZE has changed to SBLOCKSIZE.
The header file <ufs/ufs/dinode.h> must be included before
<ufs/ffs/fs.h> so as to get the definitions of ufs2_daddr_t and
ufs_lbn_t.
Still TODO:
Verify that the first level bootstraps work for all the architectures.
Convert the utility ffsinfo to understand UFS2 and test growfs.
Add support for the extended attribute storage. Update soft updates
to ensure integrity of extended attribute storage. Switch the
current extended attribute interfaces to use the extended attribute
storage. Add the extent like functionality (framework is there,
but is currently never used).
