refactored it to be a generic device.
Instead of being part of the standard kernel, there is now a 'nvram' device
for i386/amd64. It is in DEFAULTS like io and mem, and can be turned off
with 'nodevice nvram'. This matches the previous behavior when it was
first committed.
from Mac OS X Leopard--rationalize naming for entry points to
the following general forms:
mac_<object>_<method/action>
mac_<object>_check_<method/action>
The previous naming scheme was inconsistent and mostly
reversed from the new scheme. Also, make object types more
consistent and remove spaces from object types that contain
multiple parts ("posix_sem" -> "posixsem") to make mechanical
parsing easier. Introduce a new "netinet" object type for
certain IPv4/IPv6-related methods. Also simplify, slightly,
some entry point names.
All MAC policy modules will need to be recompiled, and modules
not updates as part of this commit will need to be modified to
conform to the new KPI.

support machines having multiple independently numbered PCI domains
and don't support reenumeration without ambiguity amongst the
devices as seen by the OS and represented by PCI location strings.
This includes introducing a function pci_find_dbsf(9) which works
like pci_find_bsf(9) but additionally takes a domain number argument
and limiting pci_find_bsf(9) to only search devices in domain 0 (the
only domain in single-domain systems). Bge(4) and ofw_pcibus(4) are
changed to use pci_find_dbsf(9) instead of pci_find_bsf(9) in order
to no longer report false positives when searching for siblings and
dupe devices in the same domain respectively.
Along with this change the sole host-PCI bridge driver converted to
actually make use of PCI domain support is uninorth(4), the others
continue to use domain 0 only for now and need to be converted as
appropriate later on.
Note that this means that the format of the location strings as used
by pciconf(8) has been changed and that consumers of <sys/pciio.h>
potentially need to be recompiled.

ways:
(1) Cached pages are no longer kept in the object's resident page
splay tree and memq. Instead, they are kept in a separate per-object
splay tree of cached pages. However, access to this new per-object
splay tree is synchronized by the _free_ page queues lock, not to be
confused with the heavily contended page queues lock. Consequently, a
cached page can be reclaimed by vm_page_alloc(9) without acquiring the
object's lock or the page queues lock.
This solves a problem independently reported by tegge@ and Isilon.
Specifically, they observed the page daemon consuming a great deal of
CPU time because of pages bouncing back and forth between the cache
queue (PQ_CACHE) and the inactive queue (PQ_INACTIVE). The source of
this problem turned out to be a deadlock avoidance strategy employed
when selecting a cached page to reclaim in vm_page_select_cache().
However, the root cause was really that reclaiming a cached page
required the acquisition of an object lock while the page queues lock
was already held. Thus, this change addresses the problem at its
root, by eliminating the need to acquire the object's lock.
Moreover, keeping cached pages in the object's primary splay tree and
memq was, in effect, optimizing for the uncommon case. Cached pages
are reclaimed far, far more often than they are reactivated. Instead,
this change makes reclamation cheaper, especially in terms of
synchronization overhead, and reactivation more expensive, because
reactivated pages will have to be reentered into the object's primary
splay tree and memq.
(2) Cached pages are now stored alongside free pages in the physical
memory allocator's buddy queues, increasing the likelihood that large
allocations of contiguous physical memory (i.e., superpages) will
succeed.
Finally, as a result of this change long-standing restrictions on when
and where a cached page can be reclaimed and returned by
vm_page_alloc(9) are eliminated. Specifically, calls to
vm_page_alloc(9) specifying VM_ALLOC_INTERRUPT can now reclaim and
return a formerly cached page. Consequently, a call to malloc(9)
specifying M_NOWAIT is less likely to fail.

In particular:
- smp_tlb_mtx is no longer used, so it is axed.
- smp rendezvous lock isn't really a leaf spin-mutex. Its bad placement in
the table, however, has been the source of a false positive LOR reporting
with the dt_lock. However, smp rendezvous lock would have had sched_lock
there for older lock, so it wasn't still a leaf lock.
- allpmaps is only used in ia32 architecture, so it is inserted in the
appropriate stub.
Addictionally:
- kse_zombie_lock is no longer present, so its definition is axed out.
- zombie_lock doesn't need to have an exported symbol, so just let's it be

was used in assembler code in such a way that no unresolved relocation
records were generated, so ld didn't flag the problem. You can see
this with an 'nm' of the kernel. There will be 'U MAXCPU' on SMP systems.
The impact of this is that the intrcount/intrnames arrays do not have
the intended amount of space reserved. This could lead to interesting
problems due to the arrays being present in the middle of kernel code.
An overflow would be rather interesting as executable code would be used
as per-cpu incrementing interrupt counters.
This fixes it for now by exporting MAXCPU to the assembler. A better fix
might be to define these data structures in C - they're only referenced
in the kernel from C code these days anyway.

previously the sched_lock. These bugs have existed for some time.
- Allow swapout to try each thread in a process individually and then
swapin the whole process if any of these fail. This allows us to move
most scheduler related swap flags into td_flags.

- When a LDT entry changes, the old one is freed while it is still
referenced by gdt and ldtr. This can lead to disruptive behaviours in
particular on SMP machines.
- When a LDT entry changes, it is assumed that the only one entity sharing
the same LDT are threads in the same proc. It doesn't take in account
edge cases where two processes share the same VM (rfork'ed ones, for
example).
This patch addresses these two problems and addictionally it fixes the
usage of refcount switching back it to the old manually-grown refcount
(since in this case would be faster).
