The TTY line name should always be set for DEAD_PROCESS entries right
now. When we parse a clean utmp entry, we don't want to interpret it as
a DEAD_PROCESS entry if the TTY has never been used yet.
I am not planning on providing a mechanism tot stat() the database files
directly. The disadvantage of this, is that rwhod will now be a little
bit more heavy than it used to be. It normally used to fstat() the file
descriptor to see whether the file had changed, but this is now
impossible to implement, meaning we have to parse the entire utmp file
each 180 seconds.
This is probably not an issue on modern 16-way servers, but if it turns
out to be a problem, we'll think of something.
the Sun Fire V215/V245 and Sun Ultra 25/45 machines. This driver also
already includes all the code to support the `Oberon' Uranus to PCIe
bridges found in the Fujitsu-Siemens based Mx000 machines but due to
lack of access to such a system for testing, probing of these bridges
is currently disabled.
Unfortunately, the event queue mechanism of these bridges for MSIs/
MSI-Xs matches our current MD and MI interrupt frameworks like square
pegs fit into round holes so for now we are generous and use one event
queue per MSI, which limits us to 35 MSIs/MSI-Xs per Host-PCIe-bridge
(we use one event queue for the PCIe error messages). This seems
tolerable as long as most devices just use one MSI/MSI-X anyway.
Adding knowledge about MSIs/MSI-Xs to the MD interrupt code should
allow us to decouple the 1:1 mapping at the cost of no longer being
able to bind MSIs/MSI-Xs to specific CPUs as we currently have no
reliable way to quiesce a device during the transition of its MSIs/
MSI-Xs to another event queue. This would still require the problem
of interrupt storms generated by devices which have no one-shot
behavior or can't/don't mask interrupts while the filter/handler is
executed (like the older PCIe NICs supported by bge(4)) to be solved
though.

or we create loops.
The divert cookie (that can be set from userland too)
contains the matching rule nr, so we must start from nr+1.

- Only set the fields in the ulog_utmpx structure that are valid for the
command in question. This means that strings like "shutdown" or "~"
are not visible to the user anymore.
- Rename UTXF_* to UTXI_*, indicating the indexation, instead of using
the `antique' filename. If we ever get rid of utmp, it makes little
sense calling it by its old name.
