This flag adds a pausing utility. When ran with -p, during the kernel
probing phase, the kernel will pause after each line of output.
This pausing can be ended with the '.' key, and is automatically
suspended when entering ddb.
This flag comes in handy at systems without a serial port that either hang
during booting or reser.

In this case, C99's __func__ is properly defined as:

o The manual page for kevent says that EVFILT_AIO returns under the same
conditions as aio_error(). With that in mind, set the data field
of the returned struct kevent to the value that would be returned
by aio_error().
o Fix two compilation warnings.
mutable contents of struct prison (hostname, securelevel, refcount,
pr_linux, ...)
o Generally introduce mtx_lock()/mtx_unlock() calls throughout kern/
so as to enforce these protections, in particular, in kern_mib.c
protection sysctl access to the hostname and securelevel, as well as
kern_prot.c access to the securelevel for access control purposes.
o Rewrite linux emulator abstractions for accessing per-jail linux
mib entries (osname, osrelease, osversion) so that they don't return
a pointer to the text in the struct linux_prison, rather, a copy
to an array passed into the calls. Likewise, update linprocfs to
use these primitives.
o Update in_pcb.c to always use prison_getip() rather than directly
accessing struct prison.

you run out of mbuf address space.
kern/subr_mbuf.c: print a warning message when mb_alloc fails, again
rate-limited to at most once per second. This covers other
cases of mbuf allocation failures. Probably it also overlaps the
one handled in vm/vm_kern.c, so maybe the latter should go away.
This warning will let us gradually remove the printf that are scattered
across most network drivers to report mbuf allocation failures.
Those are potentially dangerous, in that they are not rate-limited and
can easily cause systems to panic.
Unless there is disagreement (which does not seem to be the case
judging from the discussion on -net so far), and because this is
sort of a safety bugfix, I plan to commit a similar change to STABLE
during the weekend (it affects kern/uipc_mbuf.c there).

that the process making the sysctl() have appropriate privilege.

For an object type, we maintain a variable mb_mapfull. It is 0 by default
and is only raised to 1 in one place: when an mb_pop_cont() fails for
the first time, on the assumption that the reason for the failure is
due to the underlying map for the object (e.g. clust_map, mbuf_map) being
exhausted.
Problem and Changes:
Change how we define "mb_mapfull." It now means: "set to 1 when the first
mb_pop_cont() fails only in the kmem_malloc()-ing of the object, and
only if the call was with the M_TRYWAIT flag." This is a more conservative
definition and should avoid odd [but theoretically possible] situations
from occuring. i.e. we had set mb_mapfull to 1 thinking the map for the
object was actually exhausted when we _actually_ failed in malloc()ing
the space for the bucket structure managing the objects in the page
we're allocating.
The kernel certainly doesn't use _PATH_DEV or even /dev/ to find the device.
It cannot, since "/" has not been mounted. Maybe the only affect of using
/dev/ is that it gets put in the mounted-from name for "/", so that mount(8),
etc., display an absolute path before "/" has been remounted. Many have
never bothered typing the full path, and code that constructs a path in
rootdevnames[] never bothered to construct a full path, so the example
shouldn't have it.

vnodes. This will hopefully serve as a base from which we can
expand the MP code. We currently do not attempt to obtain any
mutex or SX locks, but the door is open to add them when we nail
down exactly how that part of it is going to work.
Replace uses of holdfp() with fget*() or fgetvp*() calls as appropriate
introduce fget(), fget_read(), fget_write() - these functions will take
a thread and file descriptor and return a file pointer with its ref
count bumped.
introduce fgetvp(), fgetvp_read(), fgetvp_write() - these functions will
take a thread and file descriptor and return a vref()'d vnode.
*_read() requires that the file pointer be FREAD, *_write that it be
FWRITE.
This continues the cleanup of struct filedesc and struct file access
routines which, when are all through with it, will allow us to then
make the API calls MP safe and be able to move Giant down into the fo_*
functions.
