termcap entry reordering requires ex (which is available via usr.bin/vi), which
breaks on build hosts where installworld is run with MK_VI == no (or when
make delete-old is run on ^/projects/building-blocks as vi, et al, are
removed on the branch when the knob is tweaked to => "no")
Reordering termcap was believed to improve performance, but the file is now
accessed via /etc/termcap.db, so /etc/termcap (and /usr/share/misc/termcap by
proxy) access is less preferred.
Reordering the file broke the historical comment <-> entry mapping as well,
which could muddle the purpose of entries in the file, so it could be
potentially harmful to readers in its reordered state.

There is still one deficiency - the mountpoints are permanent, they
don't disappear when user removes the media. Fixing it needs some
autofs changes.

By default Xen binds all event channels to vCPU#0, and FreeBSD only shuffles
the interrupt sources once, at the end of the boot process. Since new event
channels might be created after this point (because new devices or backends
are added), try to automatically shuffle them at creation time.
This does not affect VIRQ or IPI event channels, that are already bound to a
specific vCPU as requested by the caller.
Sponsored by: Citrix Systems R&D
Mask the event channel source before trying to bind it to a CPU, this
prevents stray interrupts from firing while assigning them and hitting the
KASSERT in xen_intr_handle_upcall.

_p and _w are adjusted to account for the partial write (if any).
However, _p and _w should not be unconditionally adjusted and should only
be changed when we actually wrote some bytes, or the accumulated accounting
error will eventually result in a heap buffer overflow.

can't do a timeout bigger than 15 seconds. The code wasn't checking for
this and because bitmasking was involved the requested timeout was
basically adjusted modulo-16. That led to things like a 128 second
timeout actually being a 9 second timeout, which accidentally worked fine
until watchdogd was changed to only pet the dog once every 10 seconds.
When running as a Xen PVH Dom0 we need to add custom buses that override
some of the functionality present in the ACPI PCI Bus and the PCI Bus. We
currently override the ACPI PCI Bus, but not the PCI Bus, so add a new
override for the PCI Bus and share the generic functions between them.

There are two main parts to get it to work, 1) most of the register
accesses need to be word sized, other than the config register which
needs to be byte aligned, and 2) we don't need the platform driver
for this to work on the Foundation Model, allow it to be NULL.

Since VFS does not/cannot stop writes, sync might run indefinitely, or
be a wrong thing to do at all. E. g. NFS ignores VFS_SYNC() for
forced unmounts, since non-responding server does not allow sync to
finish. On the other hand, filesystems can and do stop writes using
fs-specific facilities, and should already fully flush caches in
VFS_UNMOUNT() due to the race.
Adjust msdosfs tp sync in unmount for forced call, to accomodate the
new behaviour. Note that it is still racy, since writes are not
stopped.

to be called before suspension and after resume, correspondingly. The
syncer_suspend() ensures that all filesystems dirty data and metadata
are saved to the permanent storage, and stops kernel threads which
might modify filesystems. The syncer_resume() restores stopped
threads.
For now, only syncer is stopped. This is needed, because each sync
loop causes superblock updates for UFS.

the vnode owning the buffer is not locked. More, it cannot be locked
safely, since getnewbuf_reuse_bp() is called from newbuf(), and some
other vnode is already locked, for which reused buffer will be
reassigned.
As the consequence, reclamation of the owning vnode could go in
parallel, in particular, the call to vnode_destroy_vobject(), which
deallocates the vm object and zeroes the v_bufobj->bo_object. Note
that the pages wired by the buffer are left wired and can be safely
freed by the vfs_vmio_release() without the need for the vm object
lock. Also, seeing stale pointer to the v_object is safe due to vm
object type stability.
Check for bo_bufobj != NULL and cache the value in local variable to
avoid trying to lock NULL vm object.

for the suspension.
Currently, the loop performs uninterruptible cv_wait(9) call, which
prevents suspension until child allows further execution of parent.
If child is stopped, suspension or single-threading is delayed
indefinitely.
Create a helper thread_suspend_check_needed() to identify the need for
a call to thread_suspend_check(). It is required since call to the
thread_suspend_check() cannot be safely done while owning the child
(p2) process lock. Only when suspension is needed, drop p2 lock and
call thread_suspend_check(). Perform wait for cv with timeout, in
case suspend is requested after wait started; I do not see a better
way to interrupt the wait.

The stopped state must be cleared before P_WEXIT is set. A stop
