devmem is used to represent MMIO devices like the boot ROM or a VESA framebuffer
where doing a trap-and-emulate for every access is impractical. devmem is a
hybrid of system memory (sysmem) and emulated device models.
devmem is mapped in the guest address space via nested page tables similar
to sysmem. However the address range where devmem is mapped may be changed
by the guest at runtime (e.g. by reprogramming a PCI BAR). Also devmem is
usually mapped RO or RW as compared to RWX mappings for sysmem.
Each devmem segment is named (e.g. "bootrom") and this name is used to
create a device node for the devmem segment (e.g. /dev/vmm/testvm.bootrom).
The device node supports mmap(2) and this decouples the host mapping of
devmem from its mapping in the guest address space (which can change).

Use the same scheme implemented to manage credentials.
Code needing to look at process's credentials (as opposed to thred's) is
provided with *_proc variants of relevant functions.
Places which possibly had to take the proc lock anyway still use the proc
pointer to access limits.
Thread credentials are maintained as follows: each thread has a pointer to
creds and a reference on them. The pointer is compared with proc's creds on
userspace<->kernel boundary and updated if needed.
This patch introduces a counter which can be compared instead, so that more
structures can use this scheme without adding more comparisons on the boundary.

rev. 55. The modern CPUs cache and TLB descriptions looked quite
questionable without the update, e.g. Haswell i7 4770S reported:
Data TLB: 4 KB pages, 4-way set associative, 64 entries
L2 cache: 256 kbytes, 8-way associative, 64 bytes/line
After the update, the report is:
Data TLB: 1 GByte pages, 4-way set associative, 4 entries
Data TLB: 4 KB pages, 4-way set associative, 64 entries
Instruction TLB: 2M/4M pages, fully associative, 8 entries
Instruction TLB: 4KByte pages, 8-way set associative, 64 entries
64-Byte prefetching
Shared 2nd-Level TLB: 4 KByte/2MByte pages, 8-way associative, 1024 entries
L2 cache: 256 kbytes, 8-way associative, 64 bytes/line
Some tags were apparently removed from the table 3-21, Vol. 2A. Keep
them around, but add a comment stating the removal.
Update the format line for cpu_stdext_feature according to the bits
from the SDM rev.55. It appears that Haswells do not store %cs and
%ds values in the FPU save area.
Store content of the %ecx register from the CPUID leaf 0x7
subleaf 0 as cpu_stdext_feature2 and print defined bits from it,
again acording to SDM rev. 55.

after decoding the instruction matches the one provided by hardware.
Prior to r283293 'vie->num_valid' used to contain the actual length of
the instruction whereas now it contains the maximum instruction length
possible. This introduced a bug when calculating a RIP-relative base address.
Fix this by using 'vie->num_processed' rather than 'vie->num_valid' as the
length of the emulated instruction.

Since td_name is an array member of struct thread, it can never be NULL,
so the check can be removed. In addition, curproc can never be NULL,
so remove the if statement, and splice the two printfs() together.
While here, remove the u_long cast, and use the correct printf format
specifier curproc->p_pid.

Some of them were write-only under some kernel options, e.g. variables
keeping values only used by CTR() macros. It costs nothing to the
code readability and correctness to eliminate the warnings in those
cases too by removing the local cached values used only for
single-access.

Native ABI do not need signal conversion, only emulators may want this. Usually
emulators implements its own sv_sendsig method. For now only ibcs2 emulator does
not have own sv_sendsig implementation and depends on native sendsig() method.
So, remove any extra attempts to convert signal numbers from native sendsig()
methods except from i386 where ibsc2 is living.
1. Linux sigset always 64 bit on all platforms. In order to move Linux
sigset code to the linux_common module define it as 64 bit int. Move
Linux sigset manipulation routines to the MI path.
2. Move Linux signal number definitions to the MI path. In general, they
are the same on all platforms except for a few signals.
3. Map Linux RT signals to the FreeBSD RT signals and hide signal conversion
tables to avoid conversion errors.
4. Emulate Linux SIGPWR signal via FreeBSD SIGRTMIN signal which is outside
of allowed on Linux signal numbers.
