Also fix two bugs which caused an infinite loop in none of the programs

This patch also moves the bogus comment (the comment is still not quite
right) and (as a side effect) removes some verbose initialisations (we
depend on static initialisation to 0 for almost everything in proc0).
The alpha kernels are bootable again. The change won't affect i386's

This is a seriously beefed up chroot kind of thing. The process
is jailed along the same lines as a chroot does it, but with
additional tough restrictions imposed on what the superuser can do.
For all I know, it is safe to hand over the root bit inside a
prison to the customer living in that prison, this is what
it was developed for in fact: "real virtual servers".
Each prison has an ip number associated with it, which all IP
communications will be coerced to use and each prison has its own
hostname.
Needless to say, you need more RAM this way, but the advantage is
that each customer can run their own particular version of apache
and not stomp on the toes of their neighbors.
It generally does what one would expect, but setting up a jail
still takes a little knowledge.
A few notes:
I have no scripts for setting up a jail, don't ask me for them.
The IP number should be an alias on one of the interfaces.
mount a /proc in each jail, it will make ps more useable.
/proc/<pid>/status tells the hostname of the prison for
jailed processes.
Quotas are only sensible if you have a mountpoint per prison.
There are no privisions for stopping resource-hogging.
Some "#ifdef INET" and similar may be missing (send patches!)
If somebody wants to take it from here and develop it into
more of a "virtual machine" they should be most welcome!
Tools, comments, patches & documentation most welcome.
Have fun...

- %fs register is added to trapframe and saved/restored upon kernel entry/exit.
- Per-cpu pages are no longer mapped at the same virtual address.
- Each cpu now has a separate gdt selector table. A new segment selector
is added to point to per-cpu pages, per-cpu global variables are now
accessed through this new selector (%fs). The selectors in gdt table are
rearranged for cache line optimization.
- fask_vfork is now on as default for both UP and SMP.
- Some aio code cleanup.

It is now clear that the timestamp is always valid in fork_trampoline()
except when the child is running on a previously idle cpu, which
can only happen if there are multiple cpus, so don't check or set
the timestamp in fork_trampoline except in the (i386) SMP case.
Just remove the alpha code for setting it unconditionally, since
there is no SMP case for alpha and the code had rotted.

shared signal handling when there is shared signal handling being
used.
This removes the main objection to making the shared signal handling
a standard ability in rfork() and friends and 'unconditionalising'
this code. (i.e. the allocation of an extra 328 bytes per process).
Signal handling information remains in the U area until such a time as
it's reference count would be incremented to > 1. At that point a new
struct is malloc'd and maintained in KVM so that it can be shared between
the processes (threads) using it.
A function to check the reference count and move the struct back to the U
area when it drops back to 1 is also supplied. Signal information is
therefore now swapable for all processes that are not sharing that
information with other processes. THis should addres the concerns raised
by Garrett and others.

check off SYSINIT entries as they are run, and when more arrive, we re-sort
and restart (skipping the already-run entries).
This can *only* be done after KMEM (and malloc) is up and running - this is
fine because KLD is the only consumer of this and it's done after that.
The nice thing about this is that the SYSINIT's within preloaded KLD modules
are executed in their natural order. It should be possible to register
devices for the probes which follow, etc. (soon.. several key things
prevent this, such as use of linker sets for things like pci devices).
Fixed bitrot in K&R support (suword() now takes a long word).
Didn't fix corresponding bitrot in store.9 and fetch.9.
The correct types for the store and fetch families are problematic.
The `word' functions are unfortunately named and need to be split
to handle ints/longs/object pointers/function pointers. Storing
argv[] as longs is quite broken when longs are longer than pointers,
but usually works because it clobbers variables that will soon be
reinitialized.
FreeBSD/alpha. The most significant item is to change the command

Maintain process "on-cpu" time as 64 bits of microseconds to avoid

Avoid calling microuptime the second time in mi_switch() if we do

This should reduce our context-switch overhead a bit, in particular
on pre-P5 and SMP systems.

kernal page table may need to be extended. But while growing the
kernel page table (pmap_growkernel()), newly allocated kernel page
table pages are entered into every process' page directory. For

R.I.P
1) Start using TSM.
Struct procs continue to point to upages structure, after being freed.
Struct vmspace continues to point to pte object and kva space for kstack.
u_map is now superfluous.
2) vm_map's don't need to be reference counted. They always exist either
in the kernel or in a vmspace. The vmspaces are managed by reference
counts.
3) Remove the "wired" vm_map nonsense.
4) No need to keep a cache of kernel stack kva's.
5) Get rid of strange looking ++var, and change to var++.
6) Change more data structures to use our "zone" allocator. Added
struct proc, struct vmspace and struct vnode. This saves a significant
amount of kva space and physical memory. Additionally, this enables
TSM for the zone managed memory.
7) Keep ioopt disabled for now.
8) Remove the now bogus "single use" map concept.
9) Use generation counts or id's for data structures residing in TSM, where
it allows us to avoid unneeded restart overhead during traversals, where
blocking might occur.
10) Account better for memory deficits, so the pageout daemon will be able
to make enough memory available (experimental.)
11) Fix some vnode locking problems. (From Tor, I think.)
12) Add a check in ufs_lookup, to avoid lots of unneeded calls to bcmp.
(experimental.)
13) Significantly shrink, cleanup, and make slightly faster the vm_fault.c
code. Use generation counts, get rid of unneded collpase operations,
and clean up the cluster code.
14) Make vm_zone more suitable for TSM.
This commit is partially as a result of discussions and contributions from
other people, including DG, Tor Egge, PHK, and probably others that I
have forgotten to attribute (so let me know, if I forgot.)
This is not the infamous, final cleanup of the vnode stuff, but a necessary
step. Vnode mgmt should be correct, but things might still change, and
there is still some missing stuff (like ioopt, and physical backing of
non-merged cache files, debugging of layering concepts.)
noticed some major enhancements available for UP situations. The number
of UP TLB flushes is decreased much more than significantly with these
changes. Since a TLB flush appears to cost minimally approx 80 cycles,
this is a "nice" enhancement, equiv to eliminating between 40 and 160
instructions per TLB flush.
Changes include making sure that kernel threads all use the same PTD,
and eliminate unneeded PTD switches at context switch time.

Add support for "interrupt driven configuration hooks".
A component of the kernel can register a hook, most likely
during auto-configuration, and receive a callback once
interrupt services are available. This callback will occur before
the root and dump devices are configured, so the configuration
task can affect the selection of those two devices or complete
any tasks that need to be performed prior to launching init.
System boot is posponed so long as a hook is registered. The
hook owner is responsible for removing the hook once their task
is complete or the system boot can continue.

Change the interface and implementation for the kernel callout
service. The new implemntaion is based on the work of
Adam M. Costello and George Varghese, published in a technical
report entitled "Redesigning the BSD Callout and Timer Facilities".
The interface used in FreeBSD is a little different than the one
outlined in the paper. The new function prototypes are:
struct callout_handle timeout(void (*func)(void *),
void *arg, int ticks);
void untimeout(void (*func)(void *), void *arg,
struct callout_handle handle);
If a client wishes to remove a timeout, it must store the
callout_handle returned by timeout and pass it to untimeout.
The new implementation gives 0(1) insert and removal of callouts
making this interface scale well even for applications that
keep 100s of callouts outstanding.
See the updated timeout.9 man page for more details.
