The binutils 2.15 assembler now automaticly and non-optionally adds
the .eh_frame section for unwind information. This section appears
to wreck havoc to the final boot code. Fix this by using a special
linker script that discards the .eh_frame sections, but is otherwise
identical to the linker internal script used for -N.

security.jail.allow_raw_sockets sysctl MIB is set to 1) where privileged
access to jails is given out, it is possible for prison root to manipulate
various network parameters which effect the host environment. This commit
plugs a number of security holes associated with the use of raw sockets
and prisons.
This commit makes the following changes:
- Add a comment to rtioctl warning developers that if they add
any ioctl commands, they should use super-user checks where necessary,
as it is possible for PRISON root to make it this far in execution.
- Add super-user checks for the execution of the SIOCGETVIFCNT
and SIOCGETSGCNT IP multicast ioctl commands.
- Add a super-user check to rip_ctloutput(). If the calling cred
is PRISON root, make sure the socket option name is IP_HDRINCL,
otherwise deny the request.
Although this patch corrects a number of security problems associated
with raw sockets and prisons, the warning in jail(8) should still
apply, and by default we should keep the default value of
security.jail.allow_raw_sockets MIB to 0 (or disabled) until
we are certain that we have tracked down all the problems.
Looking forward, we will probably want to eliminate the
references to curthread.
This may be a MFC candidate for RELENG_5.

UDP/IP header, make sure that space is also allocated for the link

the link layer. This trick is also used by TCP and other protocols to
avoid extra calls to the mbuf allocator in the ethernet (and related)
output routines.

in the shutdown_final state if the RB_NOSYNC flag is set.
The specific motivation in this case is that a system panic in an
interrupt context results in a call to module_shutdown(), which
calls g_modevent(), which calls g_malloc(..., M_WAITOK), which
results in a second panic. While g_modevent() could be fixed to
not call malloc() for MOD_SHUTDOWN events (which it doesn't handle
in any case), it is probably also a good idea to entirely skip the
execution of the module shutdown handlers after a panic.
This may be a MFC candidate for RELENG_5.

systems that have overlapping regions specified in their sysresource
objects. This patch fixes ATA DMA and acpi_timer allocation for such
sysctems. It should eventually be moved to resource_list_add() if it is
a valid generalized approach. The minimal approach for 5.3 is:
"Loop through all current resources to see if the new one overlaps
any existing ones. If so, the old one always takes precedence and
the new one is adjusted (or rejected). We check for three cases:
1. Tail of new resource overlaps head of old resource: truncate the
new resource so it is contiguous with the start of the old.
2. New resource wholly contained within the old resource: error.
3. Head of new resource overlaps tail of old resource: truncate the
new resource so it is contiguous, following the old."

sockets are connection-oriented for the purposes of kqueue
registration. Since UDP sockets aren't connection-oriented, this
appeared to break a great many things, such as RPC-based
