1. Extend geom_dev by having it create the symlink (i.e. call
make_dev_alias) based on the DIOCGPROVIDERALIAS ioctl.
In this way the functionaility is generic and thus usable
by any geom/provider.
2. Have g_part handle said ioctl through the devalias method,
so that it's under control of the scheme itself. By design
the alias will not be created for newly added partitions.

stale entries, we save a copy of the directory's modification time when
the first negative cache entry was added in the directory's NFS node.
When a negative cache entry is hit during a pathname lookup, the parent
directory's modification time is checked. If it has changed, all of the
negative cache entries for that parent are purged and the lookup falls
back to using the RPC. This required adding a new cache_purge_negative()
method to the name cache to purge only negative cache entries for a given
directory.

opportunistic ACCESS RPC to populate both the access and attribute caches
of the file and instead always use a GETATTR RPC. On many modern NFS

RPC.

open() of the same file will load fresh attributes, so they do not need to
be explicitly flushed in close() to guarantee close to open consistency.
However, other file desciptors may still reference this file and clearing
the attributes in close() forces those other file descriptors to fetch
fresh attributes the next time they need them.

- Don't return a negative errno when using an unknown ioctl() on a
pseudo-terminal master device. Be sure to convert ENOIOCTL to ENOTTY,
just like the TTY layer does.
- Even though we should return st_rdev of the master device node when
emulating pty(4) devices, FIODGNAME should still return the name of
the slave device. Otherwise ptsname(3) and ttyname(3) return an
invalid device name.
values like 0x80 or 0x40 into a uint8_t foo:1 bitfield. This would
result in the bit always being 0. One of these caused a warning for
overflow (one that was 0x80), but the other didn't. They were both
wrong.
This is why I hate code that mixes c struct bitfields and #defines.
The rest of the fields accessed by the program should be audited.
Not enough space in user-land buffer is not an error, userland

This is triggered only if BIOS configures ACPI_BITREG_BUS_MASTER_RLD
aka BRLD_EN_BM to 1.
Rationale:
1. we do not support C3 on PIIX4E
2. bus master activity need not break out of C2 state
3. because of CPU_QUIRK_NO_BM_CTRL quirk we may reset bus master
status which would result in immediate break out from C2
So if you have seen
cpu0: too many short sleeps, backing off to C1
with this chipset before you may want to try cx_lowest of C2 again.

ata_detach() to implement IOCATAATTACH/IOCATADETACH ioctls.
This will permit channel drivers to properly shutdown port hardware on channel
detach and init it on attach.
channel modes:
o usurp 'h' mode flag for half-width channels
o add 'q' mode flag for quarter-width channels
o rewrite rate parameter parsing to handle fractional values
o merge mode loops to eliminate ordering assumptions
o replace 0x80 with IEEE80211_RATE_MCS
and xmit parameters. This makes it possible to use tdma on fractional
channels.
o add IEEE80211_MODE_HALF and IEEE80211_MODE_QUARTER; note these are
band-agnostic (may need revisiting)
o setup all default rates in ic_sup_rates instead of doing it only
for active modes; we need these to calculate the default tx parameters
which are not recalculated after a regulatory update (can't just
recalculate after installing a new channel list because we might
clobber user settings)
o remove special case code in ieee80211_get_suprates; this is now
a candidate for an inline or removal
o add various entries for new modes (roaming+tx params, wme, rate
mapping, scan set setup, country ie construction, tdma, basic rates)
Note these modes are intentionally not visible through if_media.
parameters for IEEE80211_IOC_ROAM and IEEE80211_IOC_TXPARAMS; this
lets us add more modes and still have old apps work
o consolidate loops to remote assumptions about mode ordering
o mark phy type to indicate 1/2 or 1/4-rate operation
o use phy type instead of channel attributes to identify 1/2 and 1/4-rate
operation
o general cleanup of code including move phy constants to ah_internal.h
Eventually this code should go away and we should use the net0211 equivalents.

struct passwd. This is not the case when sizeof(unsigned long) !=
sizeof(time_t). Write a dinky function to do the assignment instead
of relying on the punning. This does slow things down a little (1
extra function call, 11 pointer or int assignments), but is much safer
and machines have been fast enough since the mid 1990s that nobody
will notice the difference.
time_t is a 64-bits int on arm and mips. Before this change, arm was
silently broken. I guess there aren't that many ARM machines running
master YP domain servers. :)
The client side doesn't assume this type punning, so it doesn't need

- Use the newly introduced function in order to fix cases like
KERN_PROC_PROC where aggregating stats are broken because they just
consider the first thread in the pool for each process.
(Note, additively, that KERN_PROC_PROC is rather inaccurate on
thread-wide informations like the 'state' of the process. Such
informations should maybe be invalidated and being forceably discarded
by the consumers?).
- Simplify the logic of sysctl_out_proc() and adjust the
fill_kinfo_thread() accordingly.
- Remove checks on the FIRST_THREAD_IN_PROC() being NULL but add
assertives.
This patch should fix aggregate statistics for KERN_PROC_PROC.
This is one of the reasons why top doesn't use this option and now it
