the new subr_unit.c code.
For now assert Giant in ttycreate() and ttyfree(). It is not obvious that
it will ever pay off to lock these with anything else.
Allocation is always lowest free unit number.
A mixed range/bitmap strategy for maximum memory efficiency. In
the typical case where no unit numbers are freed total memory usage
is 56 bytes on i386.
malloc is called M_WAITOK but no locking is provided (yet). A bit of
experience will be necessary to determine the best strategy. Hopefully
a "caller provides locking" strategy can be maintained, but that may
require use of M_NOWAIT allocation and failure handling.
A userland test driver is included.
generic way. This code will allow a similar amount of code to be
removed from most if not all serial port drivers.
Add generic cdevsw for tty devices.
Add generic slave cdevsw for init/lock devices.
Add ttypurge function which wakes up all know generic sleep
points in the tty code, and calls into the hw-driver if it
provides a method.
Add ttycreate function which creates tty device and optionally
cua device. In both cases .init/.lock devices are created
as well.
Change ttygone() slightly to also call the hw driver provided
purge routine.
Add ttyfree() which will purge and destroy the cdevs.
Add ttyconsole mode for setting console friendly termios
on a port.
is one, detect mbuf loops and stop, add an extra arg so you can only print
the first x bytes of the data per mbuf (print all if arg is -1), print
flags using %b (bitmask)...
No code in the tree appears to use m_print, and it's just a maner of adding
-1 as an additional arg to m_print to restore original behavior..

the trapframe via kdb_frame, but kdb_frame was not initialized until
after the call to kdb_cpu_trap(). Ergo: kdb_cpu_trap() was moved too
far up.

dev_refthread() will return the cdevsw pointer or NULL. If the
return value is non-NULL a threadcount is held which much be released
with dev_relthread(). If the returned cdevsw is NULL no threadcount
is held on the device.
It can be used to delay mounting root partition to give a chance to GEOM
providers to show up.
Now, when there is no needed provider, vfs_rootmount() function will look
for it every second and if it can't be find in defined time, it'll ask
for root device name (before this change it was done immediately).
This will allow to boot from gmirror device in degraded mode.
of the number of threads which are inside whatever is behind the
cdevsw for this particular cdev.
Make the device mutex visible through dev_lock() and dev_unlock().
We may want finer granularity later.
Replace spechash_mtx use with dev_lock()/dev_unlock().
Better to kill all other threads than to panic the system if 2 threads call
execve() at the same time. A better fix will be committed later.
Note that this only affects the case where the execve fails.
Ask uma_zcreate() to align mbufs to MSIZE bytes (otherwise dtom() breaks)
As it happens, uma_zalloc_arg() always returned mbufs aligned to MSIZE
anyway, but that was an implementation side-effect....

UMA_ZONE_NOFREE to guarantee type stability, so proc_fini() should
never be called. Move an assertion from proc_fini() to proc_dtor()
and garbage-collect the rest of the unreachable code. I have retained
vm_proc_dispose(), since I consider its disuse a bug.
most if not all of our tty drivers in the future.
Centralizing this stuff enables us to remove about 100 lines of
almost but not quite perfectly copy&paste code from each tty driver.
