Doug Rabson's work, with a few tweaks from Warner Losh and I. There are
still some quirks to resolve, but the old driver is presently breaking
the build.
a quick think and discussion among various people some form of some of
these changes will probably be recommitted.
The reversion requested was requested by dg while discussions proceed.
PHK has indicated that he can live with this, and it has been agreed
that some form of some of these changes may return shortly after further
discussion.

EOPNOTSUPP. Display a message in that case and return ENOSYS to userland.

1. Move definitions of struct i386_*_args to the header file sysarch.h,
since they are part of the sysarch API. struct i386_get_ldt_args and
i386_set_ldt_args were identical, therefore make them into one
struct i386_ldt_args. Libc should use these definitions as well.
2. Return a more sensible EOPNOTSUPP for unknown operations.

committed at this time, it will not affect the driver. The code is being
committed early to allow others synchronise changes.
new system is integrated with the ISA bus code more cleanly and allows
the future addition of more enumerators such as PnPBIOS and ACPI.
This commit also enables the new pcm driver since it is somewhat tied to
the new PnP code.
Remove WD formatting code which has never worked in 386bsd or FreeBSD.
Remove DIOCSSTEP and DIOCSRETRIES ioctls as well, they belong in
history, along with the SMD disks.

Also correct the function declaration style for the mem_range functions to
match the rest of this file (oops).

the highly non-recommended option ALLOW_BDEV_ACCESS is used.
(bdev access is evil because you don't get write errors reported.)
Kill si_bsize_best before it kills Matt :-)
Use the specfs routines rather having cloned copies in devfs.
UMAPFS_DIAGNOSTIC and UNION_DIAGNOSTIC. Uncommented NULLFS_DIAGNOSTIC.
It is as bogus as the above three but since it is already a new-style
option it is easier to use it than to fix it.
discussed on current.
The following variables are defined (for now):
osname (defaults to "Linux")
Allow users to change the name of the OS as returned by uname(2),
specially added for all those Linux Netscape users and statistics
maniacs :-) We now have what we all wanted!
osrelease (defaults to "2.2.5")
Allow users to change the version of the OS as returned by uname(2).
Since -current supports glibc2.1 now, change the default to 2.2.5
(was 2.0.36).
oss_version (defaults to 198144 [0x030600])
This one will be used by the OSS_GETVERSION ioctl (PR 12917) which I
can commit now that we have the MIB. The default version number is the
lowest version possible with the current 'encoding'.
A note about imprisoned processes (see jail(2)):
These variables are copy-on-write (as suggested by phk). This means that
imprisoned processes will use the system wide value unless it is written/set
by the process. From that moment on, a copy local to the prison will be
used.
A note about the implementation:
I choose to add a single pointer to struct prison, because I didn't like the
idea of changing struct prison every time I come up with a new variable. As
a side effect, the extra storage is only needed when a variable is set from
within the prison. This also minimizes kernel bloat when the Linuxulator is
not used; both compiled in or as a module.
