changes in MD code are trivial, before this change, trapsignal and
sendsig use discrete parameters, now they uses member fields of
ksiginfo_t structure. For sendsig, this change allows us to pass
POSIX realtime signal value to user code.
2. Remove cpu_thread_siginfo, it is no longer needed because we now always
generate ksiginfo_t data and feed it to libpthread.
3. Add p_sigqueue to proc structure to hold shared signals which were
blocked by all threads in the proc.
4. Add td_sigqueue to thread structure to hold all signals delivered to
thread.
5. i386 and amd64 now return POSIX standard si_code, other arches will
be fixed.
6. In this sigqueue implementation, pending signal set is kept as before,
an extra siginfo list holds additional siginfo_t data for signals.
kernel code uses psignal() still behavior as before, it won't be failed
even under memory pressure, only exception is when deleting a signal,
we should call sigqueue_delete to remove signal from sigqueue but
not SIGDELSET. Current there is no kernel code will deliver a signal
with additional data, so kernel should be as stable as before,
a ksiginfo can carry more information, for example, allow signal to
be delivered but throw away siginfo data if memory is not enough.
SIGKILL and SIGSTOP have fast path in sigqueue_add, because they can
not be caught or masked.
The sigqueue() syscall allows user code to queue a signal to target
process, if resource is unavailable, EAGAIN will be returned as
specification said.
Just before thread exits, signal queue memory will be freed by
sigqueue_flush.
Current, all signals are allowed to be queued, not only realtime signals.

TLB shootdown requirements. Otherwise a CPU may not get the needed
TLB invalidation.
The PTE valid and access flags can not be used here to avoid TLB
shootdowns unless sf->cpumask == all_cpus.
( Otherwise some CPUs may still hold an even older entry in the TLB)
Since sf_buf_alloc mappings are normally always used this is
also not really useful and presetting accessed and modified
allows the CPU to speculatively load the entry into the TLB.
Both bugs can cause random data corruption.

o Axe poll in trap.
o Axe IFF_POLLING flag from if_flags.
o Rework revision 1.21 (Giant removal), in such a way that
poll_mtx is not dropped during call to polling handler.
This fixes problem with idle polling.
o Make registration and deregistration from polling in a
functional way, insted of next tick/interrupt.
o Obsolete kern.polling.enable. Polling is turned on/off
with ifconfig.
Detailed kern_poll.c changes:
- Remove polling handler flags, introduced in 1.21. The are not
needed now.
- Forget and do not check if_flags, if_capenable and if_drv_flags.
- Call all registered polling handlers unconditionally.
- Do not drop poll_mtx, when entering polling handlers.
- In ether_poll() NET_LOCK_GIANT prior to locking poll_mtx.
- In netisr_poll() axe the block, where polling code asks drivers
to unregister.
- In netisr_poll() and ether_poll() do polling always, if any
handlers are present.
- In ether_poll_[de]register() remove a lot of error hiding code. Assert
that arguments are correct, instead.
- In ether_poll_[de]register() use standard return values in case of
error or success.
- Introduce poll_switch() that is a sysctl handler for kern.polling.enable.
poll_switch() goes through interface list and enabled/disables polling.
A message that kern.polling.enable is deprecated is printed.
Detailed driver changes:
- On attach driver announces IFCAP_POLLING in if_capabilities, but
not in if_capenable.
- On detach driver calls ether_poll_deregister() if polling is enabled.
- In polling handler driver obtains its lock and checks IFF_DRV_RUNNING
flag. If there is no, then unlocks and returns.
- In ioctl handler driver checks for IFCAP_POLLING flag requested to
be set or cleared. Driver first calls ether_poll_[de]register(), then
obtains driver lock and [dis/en]ables interrupts.
- In interrupt handler driver checks IFCAP_POLLING flag in if_capenable.
If present, then returns.This is important to protect from spurious
interrupts.

Now that Giant is acquired in uprintf() and tprintf(), the caller no
longer leads to acquire Giant unless it also holds another mutex that
would generate a lock order reversal when calling into these functions.
Specifically not backed out is the acquisition of Giant in nfs_socket.c
and rpcclnt.c, where local mutexes are held and would otherwise violate
the lock order with Giant.
This aligns this code more with the eventual locking of ttys.

as they both interact with the tty code (!MPSAFE) and may sleep if the
tty buffer is full (per comment).
Modify all consumers of uprintf() and tprintf() to hold Giant around
calls into these functions. In most cases, this means adding an
acquisition of Giant immediately around the function. In some cases
(nfs_timer()), it means acquiring Giant higher up in the callout.
With these changes, UFS no longer panics on SMP when either blocks are
exhausted or inodes are exhausted under load due to races in the tty
code when running without Giant.
NB: Some reduction in calls to uprintf() in the svr4 code is probably
desirable.
NB: In the case of nfs_timer(), calling uprintf() while holding a mutex,
or even in a callout at all, is a bad idea, and will generate warnings
and potential upset. This needs to be fixed, but was a problem before
this change.
NB: uprintf()/tprintf() sleeping is generally a bad ideas, as is having
non-MPSAFE tty code.

switch to reload the TSS via the TDF_NEEDRESCHED flag. Optimizations to
avoid calling cpu_switch() when the new thread was identical to the old

as they are already default for I686_CPU for almost 3 years, and
CPU_DISABLE_SSE always disables it. On the other hand, CPU_ENABLE_SSE
does not work for I486_CPU and I586_CPU.
This commit has:
- Removed the option from conf/options.*
- Removed the option and comments from MD NOTES files
- Simplified the CPU_ENABLE_SSE ifdef's so they don't
deal with CPU_ENABLE_SSE from kernel configuration. (*)
For most users, this commit should be largely no-op. If you used to
place CPU_ENABLE_SSE into your kernel configuration for some reason,
it is time to remove it.
(*) The ifdef's of CPU_ENABLE_SSE are not removed at this point, since
we need to change it to !defined(CPU_DISABLE_SSE) && defined(I686_CPU),
not just !defined(CPU_DISABLE_SSE), if we really want to do so.

by amd64 and i386: For buffered writes we collect data and write it
out a ${DEV_BSIZE}-sized block at a time. The fragsz variable is used
to keep track of how much data we have collected in the buffer so far
and it's reset to zero immediately after writing a block to the dump
device.
When the last, possibly partially filled buffer is flushed, we didn't
reset fragsz to 0 and as such would stop reflecting reality. Since we
currently only need to do buffered writes once, this isn't a problem.
However, when kernel dumps are made by hand (say by callling doadump
from within DDB), the improperly cleared state from the first call to
dumpsys causes the next call to dumpsys to create an invalid code file.
This change resets fragsz after flushing the partially filled buffer so
that it fixes the two problems at once.

that newer Intel cpu hardware implements them too. This includes things
like the NX (pte no-execute) flag for execute protection. We'll need to
reference this for implementing no-exec in pmap.c at some point.
Some feature flags are duplicated in both the Intel-orignated bits and
the AMD bits. Suppress the the duplicates correctly - the old code
assumed they were a 1:1 mapping which is not correct. We can't just mask
off the bits present in cpu_feature.
Converge with amd64 where this originated from.
Intel cpu's that implement any AMD features will report them in dmesg now.

dump format. The key reason to do this is so that we can dump sparse
address space. For example, we need to be able to skip the PCI hole
just below the 4GB boundary. Trying to destructively dump MMIO device
registers is Really Bad(TM). The frequent result of trying to do a
crash dump on a machine with 4GB or more ram was ugly (lockup or reboot).
This code has been taken directly from the IA64 dump_machdep.c code,
with just a few (mostly minor) mods.
Introduce a dump_avail[] array in the machdep.c code so that we have a
source of truth for what memory is present in a machine that needs to be
dumped. We can't use phys_avail[] because all sorts of things slice
memory out of it that we really need to dump. eg: the vm page array
and the dmesg buffer. dump_avail[] is pretty much an unmolested version
of phys_avail[]. It does have Maxmem correction.
Bump the i386 and amd64 dump format to version 2, but nothing actually
uses this. amd64 was actually using the i386 dump version number.

Eliminate the Boolean variable pmap_initialized from the alpha, amd64,
