Alfred Perlstein 97d4578662 Remove an 'optimization' I hope to never see again.
The pipe code could not handle running out of kva, it would panic
if that happened.  Instead return ENFILE to the application which
is an acceptable error return from pipe(2).

There was some slightly tricky things that needed to be worked on,
namely that the pipe code can 'realloc' the size of the buffer if
it detects that the pipe could use a bit more room.  However if it
failed the reallocation it could not cope and would panic.  Fix
this by attempting to grow the pipe while holding onto our old
resources.  If all goes well free the old resources and use the
new ones, otherwise continue to use the smaller buffer already
allocated.

While I'm here add a few blank lines for style(9) and remove
'register'.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you have to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
