# If -DWANT_AOUT is specified, a `make world' with OBJFORMAT=elf will
# update the legacy support for aout. This includes all libraries, ld.so
# and boot objects. This part of build should be regarded as
# deprecated and you should _not_ expect to be able to do this past the
# release of 4.0. You have exactly one major release to move entirely
# to elf.
Now that we're past 5.0, these aren't needed at all anymore and it is
well past its freshness date.
Remove the unused FILE\ *tf from print_mesg args, and the
bogus passing in of an uninitialised FILE* for it.
Call a timeval 'now' instead of 'clock' due to shadowing.
Remove a nested localtime declaration.
Make the delete invite argument match the ID type, u_int32_t.
Use const for pointers to const items.
Cast to long where printing as such.
Include netinet/in.h for htonl/htons.

the thread is switched to. This fixes a race where we'd run for a little
while with curthread unset in _thread_start.

as it could be and can do with some more cleanup. Currently its under
options LAZY_SWITCH. What this does is avoid %cr3 reloads for short
context switches that do not involve another user process. ie: we can
take an interrupt, switch to a kthread and return to the user without
explicitly flushing the tlb. However, this isn't as exciting as it could
be, the interrupt overhead is still high and too much blocks on Giant
still. There are some debug sysctls, for stats and for an on/off switch.
The main problem with doing this has been "what if the process that you're
running on exits while we're borrowing its address space?" - in this case
we use an IPI to give it a kick when we're about to reclaim the pmap.
Its not compiled in unless you add the LAZY_SWITCH option. I want to fix a
few more things and get some more feedback before turning it on by default.
This is NOT a replacement for Bosko's lazy interrupt stuff. This was more
meant for the kthread case, while his was for interrupts. Mine helps a
little for interrupts, but his helps a lot more.
The stats are enabled with options SWTCH_OPTIM_STATS - this has been a
pseudo-option for years, I just added a bunch of stuff to it.
One non-trivial change was to select a new thread before calling
cpu_switch() in the first place. This allows us to catch the silly
case of doing a cpu_switch() to the current process. This happens
uncomfortably often. This simplifies a bit of the asm code in cpu_switch
(no longer have to call choosethread() in the middle). This has been
implemented on i386 and (thanks to jake) sparc64. The others will come
soon. This is actually seperate to the lazy switch stuff.

print a warning, and set the idletime variable for the entry to -1;
then pick up the -1 later in sprint() and lprint() and ignore those
idle times by printing just whitespace. When third party applications,
such as kdm, insert utmp entries, they sometimes use strings like ":0",
which can't be stat()'d and currently result in warnings that are
not helpful to the user.
This patch is rather big because I had to significantly redesign
the driver to make the busdma conversion possible. Most notably,
hardware and software structures were carefully splitted to get
rid of all the structs overlapping evilness.

to select a KSE with a slice of 0 we will update its slice and insert it
onto the next queue.
- Pass the KSE instead of the ksegrp into sched_slice(). This more
accurately reflects the behavior of the code. Slices are granted to kses.
- Add a function kseq_nice_min() which finds the smallest nice value
assigned to the kseg of any KSE on the queue.
- Rewrite the logic in sched_slice(). Add a large comment describing the
new slice selection scheme. To summarize, slices are assigned based on
the nice value. Priorities are still calculated based on the nice and
interactivity of a process. Slice sizes of 0 may be granted for KSEs
whos nice is 20 or futher away from the lowest nice on the run queue.
Other nice values are scaled across the range [min, min+20]. This fixes
ULEs bad behavior with positively niced processes.
