in elf_cpu_load_file(). The only time when the sync is needed is after
kernel module is loaded and the relocation info is processed. And it's
done in elf_cpu_load_file().
- Avoid main lock contention by trylock for if_start, if that fails,
schedule TX taskqueue for if_start
- Don't do direct sending if the packet to be sent is large, e.g.
TSO packet.
This change gives me stable 9.1Gbps TCP sending performance w/ TSO
over a 10Gbe directly connected network (the performance fluctuated
between 4Gbps and 9Gbps before this commit). It also improves non-
TSO TCP sending performance a lot.

intended behaviour in its man page. Simplify tty_drain() to match.
Don't call ttydevsw methods in tty_flush() if the device is gone
since we now sometimes call it then.
The flushing was supposed to be implemented by passing the FNONBLOCK
flag to VOP_CLOSE() for revoke(). The tty driver is one of the few
that can block in close and was one of the fewer that knew about this.
This almost worked in FreeBSD-1 and similarly in Net/2. These
versions only almost worked because there was and is considerable
confusion between IO_NDELAY and FNONBLOCK (aka O_NONBLOCK). IO_NDELAY
is only valid for VOP_READ() and VOP_WRITE(). For other VOPs it has
the same value as O_SHLOCK. But since vfs_subr.c and tty.c
consistently used the wrong flag and the O_SHLOCK flag is rarely set,
this mostly worked. It also gave the feature than applications could
get the non-blocking close by abusing O_SHLOCK.
This was first broken then fixed in 1995. I changed only the tty
driver to use FNONBLOCK, as a hack to get non-blocking via the normal
flag FNONBLOCK for last closes. I didn't know about revoke()'s use
of IO_NDELAY or change it to be consistent, so revoke() was broken.
Then I changed revoke() to match.
This was next broken in 1997 then fixed in 1998. Importing Lite2 made
the flags inconsistent again by undoing the fix only in vfs_subr.c.
This was next broken in 2008 by replacing everything in tty.c and not
checking any flags in last close. Other bugs in draining limited the
resulting unbounded waits to drain in some cases.
It is now possible to fix this better using the new FREVOKE flag.
Just restore flushing for revoke() for now. Don't restore or undo any
hacks for ordinary last closes yet. But remove dead code in the
1-second relative timeout (r272789). This did extra work to extend
the buggy draining for revoke() for as long as possible. The 1-second
timeout made this not very long by usually flushing after 1 second.

To avoid that the problem occurs again, properly document which

Note that the bug only affects QFQ in FreeBSD head from last july, as
the patch was not merged to other versions.
The only difference between dcbzl and dcbz is dcbzl operates on native cache
line lengths regardless of L1CSR0[DCBZ32]. Since we don't change the cache line
size, the cacheline_size variable will reflect the used cache line length, and

Allows for using hardware watchpoints for 1, 2, 4, 8 byte long addresses.
The default configuration of watchpoint is RW but code allows to select
RO or WO and X.
Since debugging registers are per-CPU (CP14) the watchpoint is set on
the CPU that was lucky (or not) to enter DDB.
HW breakpoints are used to perform single step in KDB.
When HW breakpoint is enabled all watchpoints are temporary disabled
to avoid recursive abort on both watchpoint and breakpoint.
In case of branch, the breakpoint is set to both - next instruction
and possible branch address. This requires at least 2 breakpoints
supported in the CPU however this is a must for ARMv6/v7 CPUs.

There are number of radix consumers in kernel land (pf,ipfw,nfs,route)
with different requirements. In fact, first 3 don't have _any_ requirements
and first 2 does not use radix locking. On the other hand, routing
structure do have these requirements (rnh_gen, multipath, custom
to-be-added control plane functions, different locking).
Additionally, radix should not known anything about its consumers internals.
So, radix code now uses tiny 'struct radix_head' structure along with
internal 'struct radix_mask_head' instead of 'struct radix_node_head'.
Existing consumers still uses the same 'struct radix_node_head' with
slight modifications: they need to pass pointer to (embedded)
'struct radix_head' to all radix callbacks.
Routing code now uses new 'struct rib_head' with different locking macro:
RADIX_NODE_HEAD prefix was renamed to RIB_ (which stands for routing
information base).
New net/route_var.h header was added to hold routing subsystem internal
data. 'struct rib_head' was placed there. 'struct rtentry' will also
be moved there soon.
The page information array could contain up to 32 elements (i.e. 512B).
And on network side w/ TSO, 11+ (176B+) elements, i.e. ~44K TSO packet,
in the page information array is quite common.
This saves us some cpu cycles.

In general we don't trust any of the extended timestamps unless the
EXT2F_ROCOMPAT_EXTRA_ISIZE feature is set. However, in the case where
we freshly allocated a new inode the information is valid and it is
better to pass it along instead of leaving the value undefined.
This should have no practical effect but should reduce the amount of
garbage if EXT2F_ROCOMPAT_EXTRA_ISIZE is set, like in cases where the
filesystem is converted from ext3 to ext4.
