The CUSE library is a wrapper for the devfs kernel functionality which
is exposed through /dev/cuse . In order to function the CUSE kernel
code must either be enabled in the kernel configuration file or loaded
separately as a module. Currently none of the committed items are
connected to the default builds, except for installing the needed
header files. The CUSE code will be connected to the default world and
kernel builds in a follow-up commit.
The CUSE module was written by Hans Petter Selasky, somewhat inspired
by similar functionality found in FUSE. The CUSE library can be used
for many purposes. Currently CUSE is used when running Linux kernel
drivers in user-space, which need to create a character device node to
communicate with its applications. CUSE has full support for almost
all devfs functionality found in the kernel:
- kevents
- read
- write
- ioctl
- poll
- open
- close
- mmap
- private per file handle data

the UART FIFO.
The emulation is constrained in a number of ways: 64-bit only, doesn't check
for all exception conditions, limited to i/o ports emulated in userspace.
Some of these constraints will be relaxed in followup commits.

the proper ICWx initialization sequence. It assumes, probably correctly, that
the boot firmware has done the 8259 initialization.
Since grub-bhyve does not initialize the 8259 this write to the mask register
takes a code path in which 'error' remains uninitialized (ready=0,icw_num=0).
Fix this by initializing 'error' at the start of the function.
shared flag is set on normal-memory mappings made via pmap_kenter() for SMP.
The "shared flag" part of this change isn't obvious from the diff, here's
the deal... by using the array of preformatted page table entry templates
instead of constructing the PTE from scratch, we automatically get the
right attribute bits set for both caching and shared.

Assert that the hold count has not fallen below the use count, a situation
that would only happen when a vref() (or similar) is erroneously paired
with a vdrop(). This situation has not been observed in the wild, but
could be helpful for someone implementing a new filesystem.

boundary. This was addressed several years ago by creating a parent
tag hierarchy for the root buses that set the boundary restriction
for appropriate buses and allowed child deviced to inherit it.
Somewhere along the way, this restriction was turned into a case for
marking the tag as a candidate for needing bounce buffers, instead
of just splitting the segment along the boundary line. This flag
also causes all maps associated with this tag to be non-NULL, which
in turn causes bus_dmamap_sync() to take the slow path of function
pointer indirection to discover that there's no bouncing work to
do. The end result is a lot of pages set aside in bounce pools
that will never be used, and a slow path for data buffers in nearly
every DMA-capable PCIe device. For example, our workload at Netflix
was spending nearly 1% of all CPU time going through this slow path.
Fix this problem by being more selective about when to set the
COULD_BOUNCE flag. Only set it when the boundary restriction
exists and the consumer cannot do more than a single DMA segment
at once. This fixes the case of dynamic buffers (mbufs, bio's)
but doesn't address static buffers allocated from bus_dmamem_alloc().
That case will be addressed in the future.
For those interested, this was discovered thanks to Dtrace Flame
Graphs.

on execve(2), it calls vmspace_exec(), which frees the current
vmspace. The thread executing an exec syscall gets new vmspace
assigned, and old vmspace is freed if only referenced by the current
process. The free operation includes pmap_release(), which
de-constructs the paging structures used by hardware.
If the calling process is multithreaded, other threads are suspended
in the thread_suspend_check(), and need to be unsuspended and run to
be able to exit on successfull exec. Now, since the old vmspace is
destroyed, paging structures are invalid, threads are resumed on the
non-existent pmaps (page tables), which leads to triple fault on x86.
To fix, postpone the free of old vmspace until the threads are resumed
and exited. To avoid modifications to all image activators all of
which use exec_new_vmspace(), memoize the current (old) vmspace in
kern_execve(), and notify it about the need to call vmspace_free()
with a thread-private flag TDP_EXECVMSPC.
