of stat(2) calls by keeping an eye of the number of links a directory
has. It assumes that each subdirectory will have a hard link to its
parent, to represent the ".." node, and stops calling stat(2) when
all links are accounted for in a given directory.
This assumption is really only valid for UNIX-like filesystems: A
concrete example is NTFS. The NTFS "i-node" does contain a link
count, but most/all directories have a link count between 0 and 2
inclusive. The end result is that find on an NTFS volume won't
actually traverse the entire hierarchy of the directories passed
to it. (Those with a link count of two are not traversed at all)
The fix checks the "UFSness" of the filesystem before enabling the
optimisation.

"options OFW_NEWPCI").
This is a bit overdue, the new sparc64 OFW PCI code which is
meant to replace the old one is in place for 10 months and
enabled by default in GENERIC for 8 months. FreeBSD 5.2 and
5.2.1 also shipped with the new code enabled by default.
- Some minor clean-up, e.g. remove functions that encapsulated
the #ifdefs for OFW_NEWPCI, remove unused resp. no longer
required includes, etc.

It's not quite correct from a posix Point Of view, but it is a lot better
than what was there before. This will be revisited later
when we decide what form our priority extensions will take. Posix doesn't
specify how a system scope thread can change its priority so you need to
add non-standard extensions to be able to do it..
For now make this slightly non standard to allow it to be done.

there's not dependencies on pccard symboles, such a dependency is not
necessary. This means that drivers that have multiple attachments can
not drag bogus devices into the kernel at load time.
We can't (yet) do this with pci and isa. Drivers written for them
actually do seem to have symbols that depend on these busses'
implementation code.

system(3) calls where user-supplied data is used with no sanity
checking. Since ctags(1) is not setuid and is not likely to be used
in a privileged situation, this is not a big deal. However, the
fix is relatively easy and less ugly than the current code, let's be
safe. (I'm sure there are about 2^134 other system(3) calls like this
out there.)

- Don't look for partitions inside a FreeBSD chunk on ia64 when mounting
the filesystems just before the chroot and install.
- Write entries out to /etc/fstab for filesystems that aren't inside a
FreeBSD chunk, but are a top-level chunk under the disk.
root is allowed to create raw sockets, then they will be able to create
routing sockets, too. However prison-root is not able to manipulate
routing tables. So when route(8) attempts to write to a routing
socket and recieves EPERM from the kernel, exit rather than moving
on with execution.

the kernel. We can guarantee this by resetting the FP status register.
This masks all FP traps. The reason we did get FP traps was that we
didn't reset the FP status register in all cases.
Make sure to reset the FP status register in syscall(). This is one of
the places where it was forgotten.
While on the subject, reset the FP status register only when we trapped
from user space.
Previously, mlockall(2) usage would leak MAP_FUTUREWIRE of the process's
vmspace::vm_map and subsequent processes would wire all of their memory.
Coupled with a wired-page leak in vm_fault_unwire(), this would run the
system out of free pages and cause programs to randomly SIGBUS when
faulting in new pages.
(Note that this is not the fix for the latter part; pages are still
leaked when a wired area is unmapped in some cases.)

in my laptop, apparently) like to set this bit at times. Research
through google shows that this problem has shown up on other systems
as well.
As the scheduling overrun handler doesn't actually do anything, and
the only effect is console spamming, disabling the interrupt seems
to be the right thing to do. (And it is also what linux 2.6 does.)
