the Open Group manpage for pthread_atfork(), available online at:
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/pthread_atfork.html
which should be ok, since Daniel Eischen had mailed me about Open
Group manpages and the fact that they have granted permission to
FreeBSD to use their material. Any differences from the OG text are
my changes to the original manpage text submitted by Alex Vasylenko:
- In an effort to clean up the part that describes hooks and their
calling order, I used a list instead of a single paragraph for all the three
types of fork() hooks.
- After a short discussion with Dima Dorfman a long long time ago in a
far away galaxy, I changed the RETURN VALUES section to look more
like the rest of the pthread_xxx.3 manpages.

Have pmcstat(8) and pmccontrol(8) use these APIs.
Return PMC class-related constants (PMC widths and capabilities)
with the OP GETCPUINFO call leaving OP PMCINFO to return only the
dynamic information associated with a PMC (i.e., whether enabled,
owner pid, reload count etc.).
Allow pmc_read() (i.e., OPS PMCRW) on active self-attached PMCs to
get upto-date values from hardware since we can guarantee that the
hardware is running the correct PMC at the time of the call.
Bug fixes:
- (x86 class processors) Fix a bug that prevented an RDPMC
instruction from being recognized as permitted till after the
attached process had context switched out and back in again after
a pmc_start() call.
Tighten the rules for using RDPMC class instructions: a GETMSR
OP is now allowed only after an OP ATTACH has been done by the
PMC's owner to itself. OP GETMSR is not allowed for PMCs that
track descendants, for PMCs attached to processes other than
their owner processes.
- (P4/HTT processors only) Fix a bug that caused the MI and MD
layers to get out of sync. Add a new MD operation 'get_config()'
as part of this fix.
- Allow multiple system-mode PMCs at the same row-index but on
different CPUs to be allocated.
- Reject allocation of an administratively disabled PMC.
Misc. code cleanups and refactoring. Improve a few comments.
the v2 card is a TI. Since we're not attempting to keep this list
complete, removing this is best.

sys.mk which does not switch on these warnings, so make will be silent.
They can be switch on on the command line with the -x option to make.
This has been tested by building RELENG_5_4 on CURRENT.
by adding WANT_IPFILTER to /etc/make.conf. Note that this is only a partial
hack and only works when building the world and kernel the 'sanctioned' way.
I hope that this hack is only temporary and can be reverted soon.

Many thanks to Bruno Ducrot for writing the driver and Jon Noack for
testing.
