several reasons for this change:
pmap_change_wiring() has never (in my memory) been used to set the wired
attribute on a virtual page. We have always used pmap_enter() to do that.
Moreover, it is not really safe to use pmap_change_wiring() to set the wired
attribute on a virtual page. The description of pmap_change_wiring() says
that it assumes the existence of a mapping in the pmap. However, non-wired
mappings may be reclaimed by the pmap at any time. (See pmap_collect().)
Many implementations of pmap_change_wiring() will crash if the mapping does
not exist.
pmap_unwire() accepts a range of virtual addresses, whereas
pmap_change_wiring() acts upon a single virtual page. Since we are
typically unwiring a range of virtual addresses, pmap_unwire() will be more
efficient. Moreover, pmap_unwire() allows us to unwire superpage mappings.
Previously, we were forced to demote the superpage mapping, because
pmap_change_wiring() only allowed us to express the unwiring of a single
base page mapping at a time. This added to the overhead of unwiring for
large ranges of addresses, including the implicit unwiring that occurs at
process termination.
Implementations for arm and powerpc will follow.

correct stack alignment, however when we have a leaf function that uses
thread local storage it calls __aeabi_read_tp to get the thread pointer.
Neither GCC or clang see this as a function call so will align the stack
to a 4-byte boundary. This may be a problem as _rtld_bind expects to be
on an 8-byte boundary.
The solution is to store a copy of the stack pointer and force the
alignment before calling _rtld_bind.
This fixes a problem with armeb where applications would crash in odd ways.
It should also remove the need for a local patch to clang to force the
stack alignment to an 8-byte boundary, even for leaf functions. Further
testing will be needed before reverting this local change to clang as we
may rely on it in other places.

Instead make ports provide wanted port and target IDs, and LUNs provide
wanted LUN IDs. After that core Device ID VPD code only had to link all
of them together and add relative port and port group numbers.
LUN ID for iSCSI LUNs no longer created by CTL, but by ctld, and passed
to CTL as "scsiname" LUN option. This makes LUNs to report the same set
of IDs, independently from the port through which it is accessed, as
required by SCSI specifications.
Having single port for all iSCSI connections makes problematic implementing
some more advanced SCSI functionality in CTL, that require proper ports
enumeration and identification.
This change extends CTL iSCSI API, making ctld daemon to control list of
iSCSI ports in CTL. When new target is defined in config fine, ctld will
create respective port in CTL. When target is removed -- port will be
also removed after all active commands through that port properly aborted.
This change require ctld to be rebuilt to match the kernel.
As a minor side effect, this allows to have iSCSI targets without LUNs.
While that may look odd and not very useful, that is not incorrect.

This finishes a set of merges from the older OpenSolaris releases.
Still the FreeBSD port has many differences that are difficult to
account for but that seems normal given that the kernels are different.

getenv_xxx() functions instead of strtoq(), because the getenv_xxx()
functions include wrappers for various postfixes like G/M/K, which
strtoq() doesn't do.
the reply to ReaddirPlus when the server failed within the loop
that calls VFS_VGET(). This failure is most likely an error
return from VFS_VGET() caused by a bogus d_fileno that was
truncated to 32bits.
This patch fixes the server so that it will return directory postop
attributes for the failure. It does not fix the underlying issue caused
by d_fileno being uint32_t when a file system like ZFS generates
a fileno that is greater than 32bits.

Before iSCSI implementation CTL had no knowledge about frontend drivers,
it had only frontends, which really were ports (alike to LUNs, if comparing
to backends). But iSCSI added there ioctl() method, which does not belong
to frontend as a port, but belongs to a frontend driver.
partitions of types other than "freebsd-boot" (in particular, "efi").
This allows the removal of some nasty hacks for supporting PowerPC systems,
in particular aliasing freebsd-boot to apple-boot on APM and an IBM-specific
code on MBR.
This changes the installer to use the correct names, which also breaks a
degeneracy in the meaning of "freebsd-boot" that allows the addition
of support for some newer IBM systems that can boot from GPT in addition to
MBR. Since I have no idea how to detect which those systems are, leave
the default on IBM PPC systems as MBR for now.
