malloc and mbuf allocation all not requiring Giant.
1) ostat, fstat and nfstat don't need Giant until they call fo_stat.
2) accept can copyin the address length without grabbing Giant.
3) sendit doesn't need Giant, so don't bother grabbing it until kern_sendit.
4) move Giant grabbing from each indivitual recv* syscall to recvit.
- Move the enabling of interrupts out of assembly and into C a few
instructions later at cpu_critical_fork_exit(). This puts more of the
MD critical section implementation under the MD critical section API
making it easier to test and develop alternative implementations.
set in cpu_critical_fork_exit() anymore.
- As far as I can tell, cpu_thread_link() has never been used, not even
when it was originally added, so remove it.
Also change "Auto mode" to use a "special" value
instead of 0, and define and document it.
I had thought libpthread had already been switched to use auto mode but
it appears that patch hasn't been committed yet.

First of all, it should be written as: tr 'a-z' 'A-Z'
ranges not encolosed in [] according to POSIX, so [] just included
in the replacement.
Second, it should be written: tr '[:lower:]' '[:upper:]'
since a-z and A-Z may have different length in some locales.
to not get any cross-device I/O requests. (The unallocated first page
protecting BSD labels already gave us this, but that hack may go away
at some point in time).
Remove the check for cross-device I/O requests in swap_pager_strategy.
Move the repeated statistics updating into flushchainbuf().
larger than normal frames, to account for the case where a bge(4) NIC
is used with VLANs. Since we set the IFCAP_VLAN_MTU flag, we must allow
reception of frames up to 1522 bytes in size rather than 1518.
Note that it is possible to work around this bug by doing:
# ifconfig bge0 mtu 1504
prior to configuring any VLAN interfaces.
o Remove alpha specific timer code (mc146818A) and compiled-out
calibration of said timer.
o Remove i386 inherited timer code (i8253) and related acquire and
release functions.
o Move sysbeep() from clock.c to machdep.c and have it return
ENODEV. Console beeps should be implemented using ACPI or if no
such device is described, using the sound driver.
o Move the sysctls related to adjkerntz, disable_rtc_set and
wall_cmos_clock from machdep.c to clock.c, where the variables
are.
o Don't hardcode a hz value of 1024 in cpu_initclocks() and don't
bother faking a stathz that's 1/8 of that. Keep it simple: hz
defaults to HZ and stathz equals hz. This is also how it's done
for sparc64.
o Keep a per-CPU ITC counter (pc_clock) and adjustment (pc_clockadj)
to calculate ITC skew and corrections. On average, we adjust the
ITC match register once every ~1500 interrupts for a duration of
2 consequtive interruprs. This is to correct the non-deterministic
behaviour of the ITC interrupt (there's a delay between the match
and the raising of the interrupt).
o Add 4 debugging sysctls to monitor clock behaviour. Those are
debug.clock_adjust_edges, debug.clock_adjust_excess,
debug.clock_adjust_lost and debug.clock_adjust_ticks. The first
counts the individual adjustment cycles (when the skew first
crosses the threshold), the second counts the number of times the
adjustment was excessive (any non-zero value is to be considered
a bug), the third counts lost clock interrupts and the last counts
the number of interrupts for which we applied an adjustment
(debug.clock_adjust_ticks / debug.clock_adjust_edges gives the
avarage duration of an individual adjustment -- should be ~2).
While here, remove some nearby (trivial) left-overs from alpha and
other cleanups.

not on-demand by vm_fault(), making kmem_alloc_nofault() more appropriate.

generate the inode mode from a default ACL and creation mask,
implement ufs_sync_inode_from_acl() using acl_posix1e_newfilemode().
Since ACL_OVERRIDE_MASK/ACL_PRESERVE_MASK are defined, we no
longer need to explicitly pass in a "preserve_mask" field: this
is implicit in the use of POSIX.1e semantics.
Note: this change contains a semantic bugfix for new file creation:
we now intersect the ACL-generated mode and the cmode requested by
the user process. This means permissions on newly created file
objects will now be more conservative. In the future, we may want
to provide alternative semantics (similar to Solaris and Linux) in
which the ACL mask overrides the umask, permitting ACLs to broaden
the rights beyond the requested umask.

support routines in kern_acl.c:
- Define ACL_OVERRIDE_MASK and ACL_PRESERVE_MASK centrally in acl.h: the
mode bits that are (and aren't) stored in the ACL.
- Add acl_posix1e_acl_to_mode(): given a POSIX.1e extended ACL, generate

- acl_posix1e_newfilemode(): Given a requested creation mode and default
ACL, calculate the mode for the new file system object (only the bits
supported by the POSIX.1e ACL).

interrupting user mode. The net effect of this bug is that a clock
interrupt does not cause rescheduling and processes are not
preempted. It only takes a "while (1);" to render the machine
useless.
This bug was introduced by the context changes and EPC syscall code.
Handling of ASTs was moved to C for clarity and ease of maintenance,
but was not added for the external interrupt case.
This needs to be revisited. We now have calls to do_ast() in trap(),
break_syscall() and ivt_External_Interrupt(). A single call in
exception_restore covers these 3 places without duplication. This
is where we handled ASTs prior to the overhaul, except that the
meat has been moved to do_ast(), a C function. This was the goal
to begin with.

Use ->bio_children to count child buffers, rather than abuse the
bio_caller1 pointer.
Expand the relevant bits of waitchainbuf() inline, this clarifies
the code a little bit.
