This is a last resort for very low memory condition in case other measures
to free memory were ineffective. Sequentially cycle through all CPUs and
extract per-CPU cache buckets into zone cache from where they can be freed.
Lock congestion is the same, whether it happens on alloc or free, so
handle it equally. Now that we have back pressure, there is no problem
to grow buckets a bit faster. Any way growth is much slower then in 9.x.
These new buckets make bucket size self-tuning more soft and precise.
Without them there are buckets for 1, 5, 13, 29, ... items. While at
bigger sizes difference about 2x is fine, at smallest ones it is 5x and
2.6x respectively. New buckets make that line look like 1, 3, 5, 9, 13,
29, reducing jumps between steps, making algorithm work softer, allocating
and freeing memory in better fitting chunks. Otherwise there is quite a
big gap between allocating 128K and 5x128K of RAM at once.
Every time system detects low memory condition decrease bucket sizes for
each zone by one item. As result, higher memory pressure will push to
smaller bucket sizes and so smaller per-CPU caches and so more efficient
memory use.
Before this change there was no force to oppose buckets growth as result
of practically inevitable zone lock conflicts, and after some run time
per-CPU caches could consume enough RAM to kill the system.

Fix several problems that can cause panics on kldload and kldunload.
* kproc_create(fasttrap_pid_cleanup_cb, ...) gets called before
fasttrap_provs.fth_table gets allocated. This can lead to a panic
on module load, because fasttrap_pid_cleanup_cb references
fasttrap_provs.fth_table. Move kproc_create down after the point
that fasttrap_provs.fth_table gets allocated, and modify the error
handling accordingly.
* dtrace_fasttrap_{fork,exec,exit} weren't getting NULLed until
after fasttrap_provs.fth_table got freed. That caused panics on
module unload because fasttrap_exec_exit calls
fasttrap_provider_retire, which references
fasttrap_provs.fth_table. NULL those function pointers earlier.
* There wasn't any code to destroy the
fasttrap_{tpoints,provs,procs}.fth_table mutexes on module unload,
leading to a resource leak when WITNESS is enabled. Destroy those
mutexes during fasttrap_unload().

Per POSIX, si_status should contain the value passed to exit() for
si_code==CLD_EXITED and the signal number for other si_code. This was
incorrect for CLD_EXITED and CLD_DUMPED.
This is still not fully POSIX-compliant (Austin group issue #594 says that
the full value passed to exit() shall be returned via si_status, not just
the low 8 bits) but is sufficient for a si_status-related test in libnih
(upstart, Debian/kFreeBSD).

On some machines (G5 with lots of RAM), entering OF sometimes causes the
machine to hang. Once the machine is booted, currently the only entry point
into OF is through resetting the framebuffer on mode switch on these machines.
Disabling this allows the machine to stay up at the expense of less usable
consoles after X is started.

the actual FPU is enabled, while PCB_FPREGS indicates that the FPU state
structure in the PCB is valid. This separation reflects the situation on
FPU-less systems in which the FP state is used by the emulator but we don't

Use this flag to save and restore FP regs properly on both AIM and Book-E.
As a side effect, this sets up hard-FP and Altivec on Book-E CPUs with such

CAP_KQUEUE_EVENT - When set on a kqueue descriptor, the kevent(2)
syscall can be called on this kqueue to with the eventlist

CAP_KQUEUE_CHANGE - When set on a kqueue descriptor, the kevent(2)

argument set to non-NULL value; in other words it allows to
modify events monitored with the given kqueue descriptor.
