6e8666a5a8 Looks like I misread the callout code. We do not seem to hold the
callout lock while the callout is happening.  So the serialization
that I thought was happening isn't.  Therefore, remove the part of the
bugs that says this.  Leave in the other bug as it is very hard to
work around (impossible?).

Fix various typos.

Also note that timeout/untimeout are considered to be the old interface and
the callout interface should be used insetad.

de78273e9c Document the implications of the callout_stop() returning 0 if the
callout has finished or is in progress.  Also document that the
locking of the callout code for FreeBSD 5 has eliminated the 'or is in
progress' clause as a possibility and that such elimination is an
accident of the implementation and shouldn't be relied upon.

cb32189e23 Move dynamic sysctl(8) variable creation for the cd(4) and da(4) drivers
out of cdregister() and daregister(), which are run from interrupt context.

The sysctl code does blocking mallocs (M_WAITOK), which causes problems
if malloc(9) actually needs to sleep.

The eventual fix for this issue will involve moving the CAM probe process
inside a kernel thread.  For now, though, I have fixed the issue by moving
dynamic sysctl variable creation for these two drivers to a task queue
running in a kernel thread.

The existing task queues (taskqueue_swi and taskqueue_swi_giant) run in
software interrupt handlers, which wouldn't fix the problem at hand.  So I
have created a new task queue, taskqueue_thread, that runs inside a kernel
thread.  (It also runs outside of Giant -- clients must explicitly acquire
and release Giant in their taskqueue functions.)

scsi_cd.c:	Remove sysctl variable creation code from cdregister(), and
		move it to a new function, cdsysctlinit().  Queue
		cdsysctlinit() to the taskqueue_thread taskqueue once we
		have fully registered the cd(4) driver instance.

scsi_da.c:	Remove sysctl variable creation code from daregister(), and
		move it to move it to a new function, dasysctlinit().
		Queue dasysctlinit() to the taskqueue_thread taskqueue once
		we have fully registered the da(4) instance.

taskqueue.h:	Declare the new taskqueue_thread taskqueue, update some
		comments.

subr_taskqueue.c:
		Create the new kernel thread taskqueue.  This taskqueue
		runs outside of Giant, so any functions queued to it would
		need to explicitly acquire/release Giant if they need it.

cd.4:		Update the cd(4) man page to talk about the minimum command
		size sysctl/loader tunable.  Also note that the changer
		variables are available as loader tunables as well.

da.4:		Update the da(4) man page to cover the retry_count,
		default_timeout and minimum_cmd_size sysctl variables/loader
		tunables.  Remove references to /dev/r???, they aren't used
		any longer.

cd.9:		Update the cd(9) man page to describe the CD_Q_10_BYTE_ONLY
		quirk.

taskqueue.9:	Update the taskqueue(9) man page to describe the new thread
		task queue, and the taskqueue_swi_giant queue.

7e9024cdd9 Add a facility for devices, specifically network interfaces, that require
large to huge amounts of small or medium sized receive buffers. The problem
with these situations is that they eat up the available DMA address space
very quickly when using mbufs or even mbuf clusters. Additionally this
facility provides a direct mapping between 32-bit integers and these buffers.
This is needed for devices originally designed for 32-bit systems. Ususally
the virtual address of the buffer is used as a handle to find the buffer as
soon as it is returned by the card. This does not work for 64-bit machines
and hence this mapping is needed.

- tagging plaintext "mbuf", "mbuf cluster", and "mbuf chain"
  with .Vt (variable type) since all of them are ways of managing
  data, i.e., they can be seen as data types;

- using .Vt/.Va instead of .Li (literal) where appropriate;

- tagging plaintext words that actually refer to function arguments
  with .Fa.

returns a stream of pseudo-random bytes, observing the automatic
reseed criteria as well as allowing forced reseeds.

3b12885314 Add a paragraph which should clarify the separation of asterisks
and adjacent tokens in declarations.
The added text was originally a single sentence I wrote and which
was heavily modified and extended by Bruce Evans.

This clarification attempt originates from differing usage of the
'restrict' type-qualifier.
Although various documents documents dicussing the C Programming
Language put a space between an asterisk and the 'restrict' keyword,
including the C99 standard (at least the n869.txt draft) and other
ISO/IEC JTC1/SC22/WG14 documents, the IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 document
does not separate them.

3e30ca7b1c Remove a sentence about wrapping macro definitions in bare braces,
which became wrong after using do { } while (0) became recommended.
Move the definition of what braces are to their new first occurrence.

78ae381517 Note that siginit() does not cause every signal to be ignored only the

00f9b68295 Expand a contraction in the text of style(9) for consistency.
Do not touch contractions in comments of code examples because
their usage seems to be justified by space contraints.

62f7648682 Increase size of ifnet.if_flags from 16 bits (short) to 32 bits (int). To avoid
breaking application ABI use unused ifreq.ifru_flags[1] for upper 16 bits in
SIOCSIFFLAGS and SIOCGIFFLAGS ioctl's.
