vnode lock may cause a LOR between kld_sx lock and vnode lock.
linker_load_dependencies() drops kld_sx, and another thread may attempt
to load the same kld.

As clearly mentioned on the mailing lists, there is a list of drivers
that have not been ported to the MPSAFE TTY layer yet. Remove them from
the kernel configuration files. This means people can now still use
these drivers if they explicitly put them in their kernel configuration
file, which is good.
People should keep in mind that after August 10, these drivers will not
work anymore. Even though owners of the hardware are capable of getting
these drivers working again, I will see if I can at least get them to a
compilable state (if time permits).
code interfered with Performant mode and legacy interrupts. Also
remove a register read operation on the Simplq code that was
effectively a time-wasting no-op.
As of r178766 this driver didn't compile anymore, because it missed a
switch()-statement. I'm getting tired of seeing this driver being broken
for two months already. When I run `make universe', everything passes,
except the BWCT kernel configuration file.
don't support the ioapic either, so remove that option too. These
were commented out, but could never be enabled, unlike the other
options in the file that are commented out.
pmap_change_attr() in order to use the direct map for any cache mode, not
just write-back mode.
It is worth noting that this change also eliminates a situation in which we
have two mappings to the same physical memory with different cache modes.

keyword. But it doesn't work. Two options.. make it no longer accept it,
or actually make it work.. I chose the 2nd..
Allow the tablearg to be used to specify a skipto destination.
This is actually a very powerful construct if used correctly, or a sink
of cpu cycles if used badly.
changes t teh man page will follow.
There is no way for the caller to tell us which direction this packet is
going. With the bpf_mtap{2} routines, we can check the interface pointer.

mode changes, and cache and TLB invalidation when some or all of the
specified range is already mapped with the specified cache mode.

return success if the passed vnode pointer is NULL (rather than
panicking). This can occur if either audit or accounting are
disabled while the policy is running.
Since the swapoff control has no real relevance to this policy,
which is concerned about intent to write rather than water under the
bridge, remove it.

processes are not producing absolute pathname tokens. It is required
that audited pathnames are generated relative to the global root mount
point. This modification changes our implementation of audit_canon_path(9)
and introduces a new function: vn_fullpath_global(9) which performs a
vnode -> pathname translation relative to the global mount point based
on the contents of the name cache. Much like vn_fullpath,
vn_fullpath_global is a wrapper function which called vn_fullpath1.
Further, the string parsing routines have been converted to use the
sbuf(9) framework. This change also removes the conditional acquisition
of Giant, since the vn_fullpath1 method will not dip into file system
dependent code.
The vnode locking was modified to use vhold()/vdrop() instead the vref()
and vrele(). This will modify the hold count instead of modifying the
user count. This makes more sense since it's the kernel that requires
the reference to the vnode. This also makes sure that the vnode does not
get recycled we hold the reference to it. [1]
