nor are they 3D accelarators as the description would like us to
believe. Since the TGA2 adapter has a VGA mode (unlike the TGA adapter),
one can use the VGA driver instead.
This fixes GENERIC kernels on alpha with TGA2 adapters.
page zeroing thread before it has been created. It was possible for
calls to free() very early in the boot process to panic here because
the sleep queues were not yet initialised. Specifically, sysinit_add()
running at SI_SUB_KLD would trigger this if the array of pointers
became big enough to require uma_large_alloc() allocations.

format modules, which are currently only used on the amd64 platform.
This initial implementation just parses enough of the module to
allow it to extract dependencies and load all the bits into the
right place in memory, so the kernel must still do the full relocation
and linking. The details of the loaded sections are passed to the
kernel by supplying a copy of the ELF section header table as module
metadata with the MODINFOMD_SHDR tag.
better relocation support for the amd64 and i386 platforms. This
should not result in any change in functionality, but moves a step
towards supporting the relocatable object file modules on amd64.
The same hack/trick as load_elf*.c uses is used here to simultaneously
support both elf32 and elf64 on amd64 and i386.

will cause the network stack to operate without the Giant lock by
default. This change has the potential to improve performance by
increasing parallelism and decreasing latency in network processing.
Due to the potential exposure of existing or new bugs, the following
compatibility functionality is maintained:
- It is still possible to disable Giant-free operation by setting
debug.mpsafenet to 0 in loader.conf.
- Add "options NET_WITH_GIANT", which will restore the default value of
debug.mpsafenet to 0, and is intended for use on systems compiled with
known unsafe components, or where a more conservative configuration is
desired.
- Add a new declaration, NET_NEEDS_GIANT("componentname"), which permits
kernel components to declare dependence on Giant over the network
stack. If the declaration is made by a preloaded module or a compiled
in component, the disposition of debug.mpsafenet will be set to 0 and
a warning concerning performance degraded operation printed to the
console. If it is declared by a loadable kernel module after boot, a
warning is displayed but the disposition cannot be changed. This is
implemented by defining a new SYSINIT() value, SI_SUB_SETTINGS, which
is intended for the processing of configuration choices after tunables
are read in and the console is available to generate errors, but
before much else gets going.
This compatibility behavior will go away when we've finished the last
of the locking work and are confident that operation is correct.
Previously, it would recognize it as a valid shell only
if the basename (nologin) was specified. Now, it will
recognize both the basename and the full path.
NOTE: The full path as adduser(8) understands it is /usr/sbin/nologin.
There is a symlink, /sbin/nologin, but that's deprecated and
only there for backwards compatibility.

This way of operation is more robust than the "AI" used
before.

Only one flag is defined now, "allow using packet mode", which

from list_net_interfaces() when network_interfaces=auto.
Rationale: Since the auto case is special, the lesser evil
had to be chosen among not adding cloned interfaces to
_tmplist or removing duplicates from _tmplist after adding
cloned interfaces. Since list_net_interfaces() must not use
/usr/bin tools, the former "evil" appeared clearer and much
more efficient. (See the PR audit trail for discussion.)
