SMP_INVLTLB is no longer a valid config option, the invalidation of the TLB
via inter-CPU IPIs is now standard when APIC_IO is used.
make world fails when it tries to build LKMs because the files
opt_smp.h
opt_smp_invltbl.h
are missing.
This patch to /usr/src/share/mk/bsd.kmod.mk is a temporary workaround.
Note that LKMs built in this way may or may NOT work properly with an
SMP kernel.
source files via a 'cc -include opt_global.h ...' type arrangement.
This means we can untangle certain header files.
options.i386 has a placeholder until it has a real member so we can avoid
having to teach config about it just yet.

There are various options documented in i386/conf/LINT, there is more to
come over the next few days.
The kernel should run pretty much "as before" without the options to
activate SMP mode.
There are a handful of known "loose ends" that need to be fixed, but
have been put off since the SMP kernel is in a moderately good condition
at the moment.
This commit is the result of the tinkering and testing over the last 14
months by many people. A special thanks to Steve Passe for implementing
the APIC code!
have successfully built, booted, and run a number of different ELF
kernel configurations, including GENERIC. LINT also builds and
links cleanly, though I have not tried to boot it.
The impact on developers is virtually nil, except for two things.
All linker sets that might possibly be present in the kernel must be
listed in "sys/i386/i386/setdefs.h". And all C symbols that are
also referenced from assembly language code must be listed in
"sys/i386/include/asnames.h". It so happens that failure to do
these things will have no impact on the a.out kernel. But it will
break the build of the ELF kernel.
The ELF bootloader works, but it is not ready to commit quite yet.

Added obsolete option GATEWAY so that kern_opt.c gets tested.
Added undocumented options LOCKF_DEBUG and SIMPLELOCK_DEBUG so
that these options get tested. The addition of LOCKF_DEBUG shows
that all of kern/kern_lockf.c shouldn't have been moved from ufs.
The debugging parts are very fs-dependent.
probing anytime soon, make EISA_SLOTS a fully supported option. It's
required for the HP NetServer LC series machines.
Next stop: make dset(8) aware of it as well.
