Use the vfs.devfs.generation sysctl to test for devfs presense
(thanks phk!) when devfs is active it will not try to create the
device nodes in /dev and therefore will not complain about the
failure to do so.
Revert the change in the #define for VINUM_DIR in the kernel
header so that vinum can find its device nodes.
Replace perror() with vinum_perror() to print file/line when
DEVBUG is defined (not defined by default).
kernel:
Don't use the #define names for the "superdev" creation since
they will be prepended by "/dev/" (based on VINUM_DIR), instead
use string constants.
Create both debug and non-debug "superdev" nodes in the devfs.

actually in the kernel. This structure is a different size than
what is currently in -CURRENT, but should hopefully be the last time
any application breakage is caused there. As soon as any major
inconveniences are removed, the definition of the in-kernel struct
ucred should be conditionalized upon defined(_KERNEL).
This also changes struct export_args to remove dependency on the
constantly-changing struct ucred, as well as limiting the bounds
of the size fields to the correct size. This means: a) mountd and
friends won't break all the time, b) mountd and friends won't crash
the kernel all the time if they don't know what they're doing wrt
actual struct export_args layout.

dynamic interfaces. It is now possible to say:

field, so it was possible for a filesystem marked clean by fsck_ffs
to cause kernel crashes later when mounted. This could occur when
fsck_ffs was used to repair a badly corrupted filesystem.
As pointed out by bde, it is not sufficient to restrict di_size to
just the superblock fs_maxfilesize limit. The use of 32-bit logical
block numbers (both in fsck and the kernel) induces another file
size limit which is usually lower than fs_maxfilesize. Also, the
old 4.3BSD filesystem does not have fs_maxfilesize initialised.
Following this change, fsck_ffs will enforce exactly the same
file size limits as are used by the kernel.

in-core pointers to summary information. An array in this region
(fs_csp) could overflow on filesystems with a very large number of
cylinder groups (~16000 on i386 with 8k blocks). When this happens,
other fields in the superblock get corrupted, and fsck refuses to
check the filesystem.
Solve this problem by replacing the fs_csp array in 'struct fs'
with a single pointer, and add padding to keep the length of the
128-byte region fixed. Update the kernel and userland utilities
to use just this single pointer.
With this change, the kernel no longer makes use of the superblock
fields 'fs_csshift' and 'fs_csmask'. Add a comment to newfs/mkfs.c
to indicate that these fields must be calculated for compatibility
with older kernels.

reserved and now allocated TCP flags in incoming packets. This patch
stops overloading those bits in the IP firewall rules, and moves
colliding flags to a seperate field, ipflg. The IPFW userland
management tool, ipfw(8), is updated to reflect this change. New TCP
flags related to ECN are now included in tcp.h for reference, although
we don't currently implement TCP+ECN.
o To use this fix without completely rebuilding, it is sufficient to copy
ip_fw.h and tcp.h into your appropriate include directory, then rebuild
the ipfw kernel module, and ipfw tool, and install both. Note that a
mismatch between module and userland tool will result in incorrect
installation of firewall rules that may have unexpected effects. This
is an MFC candidate, following shakedown. This bug does not appear
to affect ipfilter.
