Merge today's work.
Now support an attributes file loaded at startup (true front-loaded install).
Add fuller debugging support to all device I/O routines.
Lots-o-bug fixes.
made other performance improving changes. This improves the performance
of last(1) by as much as 32 times in some cases, and in more typical cases
is about twice as fast.
Added a BUGS section to the manual page to describe the behavior of last(1)
when a login shell terminates abnormally (and thus doesn't write a logout
record to the wtmp file).

Change the test on the initial value of the CONF1_ADDR_PORT register in a way
that makes the probe succeed on triton based motherboards, without breaking
the EISA motherboard that has some non-PCI register at the same address.

rt_output functionality can just lazily use if_output until customized
versions are written.

a few new wrinkles for MTU discovery which tcp_output() had better
be prepared to handle. ip_output() is also modified to do something
helpful in this case, since it has already calculated the information
we need.
This is truly a hack. The idea is taken from the Linux ibcs2 emulator.
To use this feature, you must use the option,
options SPX_HACK
in your config.
Also, in /compat/ibcs2/dev, you must do:
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 9 Oct 15 22:20 X0R@ -> /dev/null
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 7 Oct 15 22:20 nfsd@ -> socksys
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 9 Oct 15 22:20 socksys@ -> /dev/null
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 41, 1 Oct 15 22:14 spx
Do NOT use old socksys driver as that has been removed.
This hack needs /compat/ibcs2/dev/spx to be any device that does NOT
exist/configured (so the now non-existant spx major/minor works fine).
When an open() is called, the error ENXIO is checked and then the
path is checked. If spx open detected, then a unix socket is opened
to the hardcoded path "/tmp/.X11-unix/X0".
As the Linux hacker author mentioned, the real way would be to detect
the getmsg/putmsg through /dev/X0R and /dev/spx. Until this true
solution is implemented (if ever), I think this hack is important
enough to be put into the tree, even though I don't like it dirtying
up my clean code (which is what #ifdef SPX_HACK is for).
Currently, the emulator defaults to returning "FreeBSD" as the system
name, release "3.2", and version "2.0". Some programs want to make
sure they are on a SYSV 3.2 system and check for 3.X release number.
Use the following defines to override the defaults:
IBCS2_UNAME_SYSNAME
IBCS2_UNAME_RELEASE
IBCS2_UNAME_VERSION
(should be string)
for system name, release, and version, respectively. This allows
someone to compile the emulator into the kernel so it can pretend
to be a specific system if needed.
Require the state of the configuration enable bits to be OFF assuming
that the BIOS left them that way, as it should anyway to avoid bad things
to happen.
The tests themselves are copied from the previous release, with the
exception of CONF1_ENABLE_MSK1 having the LSB set. This bit should be
read back as '0', since only DWORD addresses are legal.
