c1cbd9ab53 Default to not performing the early-boot memory tests when we detect we
are booting inside a VM.  There are three reasons to disable this:

o  It causes the VM host to believe that all the tested pages or RAM are
   in use.  This in turn may force the host to page out pages of RAM
   belonging to other VMs, or otherwise cause problems with fair resource
   sharing on the VM cluster.
o  It adds significant time to the boot process (around 1 second/Gig in
   testing)
o  It is unnecessary - the host should have already verified that the
   memory is functional etc.

Note that this simply changes the default when in a VM - it can still be
overridden using the hw.memtest.tests tunable.

4b7ec27007 - There's no need to overwrite the default device method with the default
one. Interestingly, these are actually the default for quite some time
  (bus_generic_driver_added(9) since r52045 and bus_generic_print_child(9)
  since r52045) but even recently added device drivers do this unnecessarily.

cf13a58510 - Add the ffclock_getcounter(), ffclock_getestimate() and ffclock_setestimate()
system calls to provide feed-forward clock management capabilities to
  userspace processes. ffclock_getcounter() returns the current value of the
  kernel's feed-forward clock counter. ffclock_getestimate() returns the current
  feed-forward clock parameter estimates and ffclock_setestimate() updates the
  feed-forward clock parameter estimates.

- Document the syscalls in the ffclock.2 man page.

- Regenerate the script-derived syscall related files.

Committed on behalf of Julien Ridoux and Darryl Veitch from the University of
Melbourne, Australia, as part of the FreeBSD Foundation funded "Feed-Forward
Clock Synchronization Algorithms" project.

ccdf233323 Introduce macro stubs in the mutex implementation that will be always
defined and will allow consumers, willing to provide options, file and
line to locking requests, to not worry about options redefining the
interfaces.
This is typically useful when there is the need to build another
locking interface on top of the mutex one.

The introduced functions that consumers can use are:
- mtx_lock_flags_
- mtx_unlock_flags_
- mtx_lock_spin_flags_
- mtx_unlock_spin_flags_
- mtx_assert_
- thread_lock_flags_

Spare notes:
- Likely we can get rid of all the 'INVARIANTS' specification in the
  ppbus code by using the same macro as done in this patch (but this is
  left to the ppbus maintainer)
- all the other locking interfaces may require a similar cleanup, where
  the most notable case is sx which will allow a further cleanup of
  vm_map locking facilities
- The patch should be fully compatible with older branches, thus a MFC
  is previewed (infact it uses all the underlying mechanisms already
  present).

Make this less confusing by using the same name as used in the POSIX

a50079b7ff People porting FreeBSD to new architectures ought not have to
implement a deprecated FPU control interface in addition to the
standard one.  To make this clearer, further deprecate ieeefp.h
by not declaring the function prototypes except on architectures
that implement them already.

Currently i386 and amd64 implement the ieeefp.h interface for
compatibility, and for fp[gs]etprec(), which doesn't exist on
most other hardware.  Powerpc, sparc64, and ia64 partially implement
it and probably shouldn't, and other architectures don't implement it
at all.

As part of the 8.0-RELEASE cycle this was done in stable/8 (r199112)
but was left alone in head so people could work on fixing an issue that
caused boot failure on some motherboards.  Apparently nobody has worked
on it and we are getting reports of boot failure with the 9.0 test builds.
So this time I'll comment out the driver in head (still hoping someone
will work on it) and MFC to stable/9.

8451d0dd78 In order to maximize the re-usability of kernel code in user space this
patch modifies makesyscalls.sh to prefix all of the non-compatibility
calls (e.g. not linux_, freebsd32_) with sys_ and updates the kernel
entry points and all places in the code that use them. It also
fixes an additional name space collision between the kernel function
psignal and the libc function of the same name by renaming the kernel
psignal kern_psignal(). By introducing this change now we will ease future
MFCs that change syscalls.
