__kernel_rem_pio2(). This simplifies analysis of aliasing and thus
results in better code for the usual case where __kernel_rem_pio2()
is not called. In particular, when __ieee854_rem_pio2[f]() is inlined,
it normally results in y[] being returned in registers. I couldn't
get this to work using the restrict qualifier.
In float precision, this saves 2-3% in most cases on amd64 and i386
(A64) despite it not being inlined in float precision yet. In double
precision, this has high variance, with an average gain of 2% for
amd64 and 0.7% for i386 (but a much larger gain for usual cases) and
some losses.

Stop bootstrapping BSD ar(1) on the next __FreeBSD_version bump, as
there are no known bugs in it. Bump __FreeBSD_version to anticipate

this function and its callers cosf(), sinf() and tanf() don't waste time
converting values from doubles to floats and back for |x| > 9pi/4.
All these functions were optimized a few years ago to mostly use doubles
internally and across the __kernel*() interfaces but not across the
__ieee754_rem_pio2f() interface.
This saves about 40 cycles in cosf(), sinf() and tanf() for |x| > 9pi/4
on amd64 (A64), and about 20 cycles on i386 (A64) (except for cosf()
and sinf() in the upper range). 40 cycles is about 35% for |x| < 9pi/4
<= 2**19pi/2 and about 5% for |x| > 2**19pi/2. The saving is much
larger on amd64 than on i386 since the conversions are not easy to
optimize except on i386 where some of them are automatic and others
are optimized invalidly. amd64 is still about 10% slower in cosf()
and tanf() in the lower range due to conversion overhead.
This also gives a tiny speedup for |x| <= 9pi/4 on amd64 (by simplifying
the code). It also avoids compiler bugs and/or additional slowness
in the conversions on (not yet supported) machines where double_t !=
double.
e_rem_pio2.c:
Float and double precision didn't work because init_jk[] was 1 too small.
It needs to be 2 larger than you might expect, and 1 larger than it was
for these precisions, since its test for recomputing needs a margin of
47 bits (almost 2 24-bit units).
init_jk[] seems to be barely enough for extended and quad precisions.
This hasn't been completely verified. Callers now get about 24 bits
of extra precision for float, and about 19 for double, but only about
8 for extended and quad. 8 is not enough for callers that want to
produce extra-precision results, but current callers have rounding
errors of at least 0.8 ulps, so another 1/2**8 ulps of error from the
reduction won't affect them much.
Add a comment about some of the magic for init_jk[].
e_rem_pio2.c:
Double precision worked in practice because of a compensating off-by-1
error here. Extended precision was asked for, and it executed exactly
the same code as the unbroken double precision.
e_rem_pio2f.c:
Float precision worked in practice because of a compensating off-by-1
error here. Double precision was asked for, and was almost needed,
since the cosf() and sinf() callers want to produce extra-precision
results, at least internally so that their error is only 0.5009 ulps.
However, the extra precision provided by unbroken float precision is
enough, and the double-precision code has extra overheads, so the
off-by-1 error cost about 5% in efficiency on amd64 and i386.

only anonymous default (OBJT_DEFAULT) and swap (OBJT_SWAP) objects should
ever have OBJ_ONEMAPPING set. However, vm_object_deallocate() was
setting it on device (OBJT_DEVICE) objects. As a result,
vm_object_page_remove() could be called on a device object and if that
occurred pmap_remove_all() would be called on the device object's pages.
However, a device object's pages are fictitious, and fictitious pages do
not have an initialized pv list (struct md_page).
To date, fictitious pages have been allocated from zeroed memory,
effectively hiding this problem. Now, however, the conversion of rotting
diagnostics to invariants in the amd64 and i386 pmaps has revealed the
problem. Specifically, assertion failures have occurred during the
initialization phase of the X server on some hardware.

Do not mmap 0-size objects and do not try to extract symbol from
0-size objects, but do treat 0-size objects as qualified objects and
accept them as an archive member. (A member with only the header part)
Note that GNU binutils ar on FreeBSD ignores 0-size objects, but on
Linux it accepts them. [1] But, since this is a rare usage, we can
safely ignore the compatibility issue.

to use soft-float (or use a processor that has a FPU if the usage is

great portability and flexibility.

o Disable interrupts while not running U-Boot code. We clobber
registers that the U-Boot interrupt handlers assume to be
fixed as per the U-Boot register usage. At this time this only
applies to r14. U-Boot uses r2 now for what they used r29 for.
After we restore r14 in preparation of doing the syscall, we
re-enable interrupts. When we return from the syscall, we
disable interrupts and restore the callee-saved r14.

between link and load addresses should be abstracted by the copyin(),
copyout() and readin() functions, so that we don't have to add kluges
