that the 'data' pointer is already setup to point to a valid KVM buffer
or contains the copied-in data from userland as appropriate (ioctl(2)
still does this). kern_ioctl() takes care of looking up a file pointer,
implementing FIONCLEX and FIOCLEX, and calling fi_ioctl().

mostly consists of pushing a few copyin's and copyout's up into
__semctl() as all the other callers were already doing the UIO_SYSSPACE
case. This also changes kern_semctl() to set the return value in a passed
in pointer to a register_t rather than td->td_retval[0] directly so that
callers can only set td->td_retval[0] if all the various copyout's succeed.
As a result of these changes, kern_semctl() no longer does copyin/copyout
(except for GETALL/SETALL) so simplify the locking to acquire the semakptr
mutex before the MAC check and hold it all the way until the end of the
big switch statement. The GETALL/SETALL cases have to temporarily drop it
while they do copyin/malloc and copyout. Also, simplify the SETALL case to
remove handling for a non-existent race condition.
to use the hinted child system. Bus drivers that use this need to
implmenet the bus_hinted_child method, where they actually add the
child to their bus, as they see fit. The bus is repsonsible for
getting the attribtues for the child, adding it in the right order,
etc. ISA hinting will be updated to use this method.

atkbd. Version 1.162 of GENERIC fixed this problem in April of 1999.
Subsequent to that, the hints data was removed from GENERIC and move
to hints files. All the hints file ever created have atkbd at the
right location. This should have been removed just after RELENG_4 was
branched (and likely around 4.5 in RELENG_4).

Now that the source appears to have stabilized, local changes will
happen on HEAD and will therefore cause affected files to be pulled
from the vendor branch.
In e_log.c, there was just a off-by-1 (1 ulp) error in the comment
about the threshold. The precision of the threshold is unimportant,
but the magic numbers in the code are easier to understand when the
threshold is described precisely.
In e_logf.c, mistranslation of the magic numbers gave an off-by-1
(1 * 16 ulps) error in the intended negative bound for the threshold
and an off-by-7 (7 * 16 ulps) error in the intended positive bound for
the threshold, and the intended bounds were not translated from the
double precision bounds so they were unnecessarily small by a factor
of about 2048.
The optimization of using the simple Taylor approximation for args
near a power of 2 is dubious since it only applies to a relatively
small proportion of args, but if it is done then doing it 2048 times
as often _may_ be more efficient. (My benchmarks show unexplained
dependencies on the data that increase with further optimizations
in this area.)

the case where the initial open() of that lock file will create it.
Due to this bug, the first job ever sent to a queue could leave
that queue in a "printing is disabled" state.

shmctl(). None of the other ABI's do this (including the native FreeBSD
ABI), and uselessly trying to do a copyin() can actually result in a
bogus EFAULT if the a process specifies NULL for the optional argument
(which is what they should do in this case).
ibcs2_[gs]etgroups() rather than using the stackgap. This also makes
ibcs2_[gs]etgroups() MPSAFE. Also, it cleans up one bit of weirdness in
the old setgroups() where it allocated an entire credential just so it had
a place to copy the group list into. Now setgroups just allocates a
NGROUPS_MAX array on the stack that it copies into and then passes to
kern_setgroups().
ABI as FreeBSD's poll(2) is ABI compatible. The ibcs2_poll() function
attempted to implement poll(2) using a wrapper around select(2). Besides
being somewhat ugly, it also had at least one bug in that instead of
allocating complete fdset's on the stack via the stackgap it just allocated
pointers to fdsets.
Use it to reset controller and to select data rate. According to Intel
80277AA datasheet, software reset behaves the same as DOR reset except
that it is self clearing. National Semiconductor PC8477B datasheet says
the same. As a side effect, we no longer use Configuration Control
Register (CCR) at 0x3f7 for these controllers, which is often missing
in modern hardware.
