linking. These are too large for a branch instruction to branch from an
earlier point in the code to somewhere later.
This will also allow these to be build with Thumb-2 when we get this
infrastructure.

numactl was only modifying its own CPU affinity, which is fine
when creating a new process, but not very helpful when modifying
an existing processes.

up to now.
The new sendfile is the code that Netflix uses to send their multiple tens
of gigabits of data per second. The new implementation features asynchronous
I/O, when I/O operations are launched, but not awaited to be complete. An
explanation of why such behavior is beneficial compared to old one is
going to be too long for a commit message, so we will skip it here.
Additional features of new syscall are extra flags, which provide an
application more control over data sent. The SF_NOCACHE flag tells
kernel that data shouldn't be cached after it was sent. The SF_READAHEAD()
macro allows to specify readahead size in pages.
The new syscalls is a drop in replacement. No modifications are required
to applications. One can take nginx binary for stable/10 and run it
successfully on head. Although SF_NODISKIO lost its original sense, as now
sendfile doesn't block, and now means something completely different (tm),
using the new sendfile the old way is absolutely safe.

Similar fix was done for passwd and group operations in r285050. When a
temporary file is created and then renamed to replace official file there
are no checks to make sure data was written to disk and if a power cycle
happens at this time, system can end up with a 0 length file

- Added an expression parser so that expressions from headers are now working
- Fixed missing null terminators on cross references
- Disabled exceptions / RTTI in the build for smaller binaries
- Changed phandle order generation to be identical to GPL'd dtc
This is rather pedantic, as for most architectures it holds that
sizeof(type *) == sizeof(type **)

sysdecode_ioctlname() function. This function matches the behavior
of the truss variant in that it returns a pointer to a string description
for known ioctls. The caller is responsible for displaying unknown
ioctl requests. For kdump this meant moving the logic to handle unknown
ioctl requests out of the generated function and into an ioctlname()
function in kdump.c instead.

system call information such as system call arguments. Initially this
will consist of pulling duplicated code out of truss and kdump though it
may prove useful for other utilities in the future.
This commit moves the shared utrace(2) record parser out of kdump into
the library and updates kdump and truss to use it. One difference from
the previous version is that the library version treats unknown events
that start with the "RTLD" signature as unknown events. This simplifies
the interface and allows the consumer to decide how to handle all
non-recognized events. Instead, this function only generates a string
description for known malloc() and RTLD records.
