According to markj@:
pageproc contains the page daemon and laundry threads, which are
responsible for managing the LRU page queues and writing back dirty
pages. vmproc's main task is to swap out kernel stacks when the system
is under memory pressure, and swap them back in when necessary. It's a
somewhat legacy component of the system and isn't required. You can
build a kernel without it by specifying "options NO_SWAPPING" (which is
a somewhat misleading name), in which vm_swapout_dummy.c is compiled
instead of vm_swapout.c.
Based on this, we want pageproc to emulate kswapd, not vmproc.

These are used by kms-drm to determine various heuristics relate
memory conditions.
The number of free swap pages is just a variable, and it can be
much cheaper by either adding a new getter, or simply extern'ing
swap_total. However, this patch opts to use the more expensive,
existing interface - since this isn't an operation in a high per
path.
This allows us to remove some more gpl linuxkpi and do the follo

Many components under stand/ had CLANG_NO_IAS added when Clang's
Integrated Assembler (IAS) did not handle .codeNN directives. Clang
gained support quite some time ago, and we can now build stand/ with
IAS.
Note that in some cases there are small differences in the generated
output, so CLANG_NO_IAS should be removed only after testing (or after
finding no differences in the output).

Important users of unr like tmpfs or pipes can get away with just
ever-increasing counters, making the overhead of managing the state
for 32 bit counters a pessimization.
Change it to an atomic variable. This can be further sped up by making
the counts variable "allocate" ranges and store them per-cpu.

Otherwise, if the object has relro page, we write to readonly page,

that resolve_object_ifunc() does nothing when called second time, so
there is no need to avoid existing call.

Integer overflows and wrong constants limited the accuracy of these
functions and created situatiosn where sbttoXs(Xstosbt(Y)) != Y. This
was especailly true in the ns case where we had millions of values
that were wrong.
Instead, used fixed constants because there's no way to say ceil(X)
for integer math. Document what these crazy constants are.
Also, use a shift one fewer left to avoid integer overflow causing
incorrect results, and adjust the equasion accordingly. Document this.
Allow times >= 1s to be well defined for these conversion functions
(at least the Xstosbt). There's too many users in the tree that they
work for >= 1s.
This fixes a failure on boot to program firmware on the mlx4
NIC. There was a msleep(1000) in the code. Prior to my recent rounding
changes, msleep(1000) worked, but msleep(1001) did not because the old
code rounded to just below 2^64 and the new code rounds to just above
it (overflowing, causing the msleep(1000) to really sleep 1ms).
A test program to test all cases will be committed shortly. The test
exaustively tries every value (thanks to bde for the test).

The update of jemalloc to 5.1.0 exposed a cache syncing issue on a Freescale
e500 base system. There was already code in the FPU emulator to address
this, but it was limited to a single static variable, and did not attempt to
sync the cache. This pulls that out to the higher level program exception
handler, and syncs the cache.
If a SIGILL is hit a second time at the same address, it will be treated as
a real illegal instruction, and handled accordingly.
The rescue binary is built statically via the Makefile generated by
crunchgen, but that does not trigger other shared/static logic in
bsd.prog.mk - in particular disabling retpolineplt with static linking.

This patch utilizes the fixed_devclass attribute in order to make sure
other acpi devices with params don't get confused for an EC device.
The existing code assumes that acpi_ec_probe is only ever called with a
dereferencable acpi param. Aside from being incorrect because other
devices of ACPI_TYPE_DEVICE may be probed here which aren't ec devices,
(and they may have set acpi private data), it is even more nefarious if
another ACPI driver uses private data which is not dereferancable. This
will result in a pointer deref during boot and therefore boot failure.
On X86, as it stands today, no other devices actually do this (acpi_cpu
checks for PROCESSOR type devices) and so there is no issue. I ran into
this because I am adding such a device which gets probed before
acpi_ec_probe and sets private data. If ARM ever has an EC, I think
they'd run into this issue as well.
There have been several iterations of this patch. Earlier
iterations had ECDT enumerated ECs not call into the probe/attach
functions of this driver. This change was Suggested by: jhb@.

If rootfs isn't ZFS, current version will emit an error claiming so and fail
to initialize libbe. As a consumer, bectl -r (undocumented) can be specified
to operate on a BE independently of whether on a UFS or ZFS root.
Unbreak this for the UFS case by only erroring out the init if we can't
determine a ZFS dataset for rootfs and no BE root was specified. Consumers
of libbe should take care to ensure that rootfs is non-empty if they're
trying to use it, because this could certainly be the case.
Some check is needed before zfs_path_to_zhandle because it will
unconditionally emit to stderr if the path isn't a ZFS filesystem, which is
unhelpful for our purposes.
This should also unbreak the bectl(8) tests on a UFS root, as is the case in
Jenkins' -test runs.
