- Use the dh_inserted member of the dispatch header in the Windows
timer structure to indicate that the timer has been "inserted into
the timer queue" (i.e. armed via timeout()). Use this as the value
to return to the caller in KeCancelTimer(). Previously, I was using
callout_pending(), but you can't use that with timeout()/untimeout()
without creating a potential race condition.
- Make ntoskrnl_init_timer() just a wrapper around ntoskrnl_init_timer_ex()
(reduces some code duplication).
- Drop Giant when entering if_ndis.c:ndis_tick() and
subr_ntorkrnl.c:ntoskrnl_timercall(). At the moment, I'm forced to
use system callwheel via timeout()/untimeout() to handle timers rather
than the callout API (struct callout is too big to fit inside the
Windows struct KTIMER, so I'm kind of hosed). Unfortunately, all
the callouts in the callwhere are not marked as MPSAFE, so when
one of them fires, it implicitly acquires Giant before invoking the
callback routine (and releases it when it returns). I don't need to
hold Giant, but there's no way to stop the callout code from acquiring
it as long as I'm using timeout()/untimeout(), so for now we cheat
by just dropping Giant right away (and re-acquiring it right before
the routine returns so keep the callout code happy). At some point,
I will need to solve this better, but for now this should be a suitable
workaround.
- Remove second license, the first was not that different and should be
fine.
- Add nexus_attach(), and do not perform its task in nexus_probe() any
more.
- Remove nexus_write_ivar(), since it was quite pointless.
- Remove superfluous devinfo members.
- Clean up some comments, minor style issues and prototypes.

On my "hardlink detection torture test", this reduced
user time from 4700 seconds down to 4.2 seconds
and wallclock time from 1:24:48 down to 1:08.
(Yes, that's over one THOUSAND times reduction in user time. ;-)
In the worst case, the new code doubles peak memory usage,
though it could actually reduce memory usage in many cases.

as dependent on binutils features/quirks as the current one. This one
loads plain .o files without having to mess with shared object mode.
This happens to be essential on amd64, because binutils hasn't implemented
all the quirks/features that we need for producing the hack non-PIC shared
objects. As it turned out, .o format isn't all that inconvenient after
all. It looks like the ability to use the same .o files for linking
directly into a static kernel or loading as a module might be worth it.
It is still very much a work-in-progress, but it is almost usable. Other
changes are still needed in order to use it though, these have not been
committed yet. There is still a memory corruption/overrun bug somewhere.
For example, test modules load and work, but the machine explodes a few
minutes later in vm_forkproc() or the like. Notable missing things
include kldxref support, and loader(8) support. I wanted to figure out
a working baseline set of code first.
we only pay attention to it during release time and at the moment it's

This is a MFS I guess, moving rev 1.536.2.113 to HEAD. I ran out of
time to follow through with doing this last night. Sorry for the delay.
Adding a couple of variables to make tweaking the CD-ROM label and .iso
filenames easier.
things which compare /etc/fstab entries to results from
getfsstat(). The real way to fix this is to make 'ufs2'
a recognized filesystem (for real, no beating around the
bush).
This should fix things like 'umount -a -t ufs' now.
Appologies for the previous breakage.
-U flag to bsdtar. Essentially, this option breaks existing hard
links. According to SUSv2, tar is supposed to overwrite existing
files on extract by default which, in particular, preserves
existing hard links. Note that this is yet another bug in gtar; it
appears to always break existing links. (Maybe gtar's -U is broken?)
I'm unsure about how to handle this for other file types; the current
code always unlinks first unless the NO_OVERWRITE flag is specified.
I've commented this issue liberally and will come back to it later.
boot0sio.s was repo-copied to boot0.S.
- Rename boot0ext.s to boot0ext.S, to stay consistent
with other preprocessed asm files around here, and
for better portability.
