update the free-space statistics in some cases. The problem affected
directory blocks when the free space dropped below the size of the
maximum allowed entry size. When this happened, the free-space
summary information could claim that there are no further blocks
that can fit a maximum-size entry, even if there are.
The effect of this bug is that the directory may be enlarged even
though there is space within the directory for the new entry. This
wastes disk space and has a negative impact on performance.
Fix it by correctly computing the dh_firstfree array index, adding
a helper macro for clarity. Put an extra sanity check into
ufsdirhash_checkblock() to detect the situation in future.

The trouble here is that we don't reopen the device in read/write mode
when we remount in read/write mode resulting in a filesystem sending

I'm not quite sure how such a reopen would best be done and defer

machdep.guessed_bootdev, and add code to sysctl to parse its value
and give a (not necessarily correct) name to the device we booted
from (the main motivation for this code is to use the info in the
PicoBSD boot scripts, and the impact on the kernel is minimal).
NOTE: the information available in bootdev is not always reliable,
so you should not trust it too much. The parsing code is the same
as in boot2.c, and cannot cover all cases -- as it is, it seems to
work fine with floppies and IDE disks recognised by the BIOS. It
_should_ work as well with SCSI disks recognised by the BIOS.
Booting from a CDROM in floppy emulation will return /dev/fd0 (because
this is what the BIOS tells us).
Booting off the network (e.g. with etherboot) leaves bootdev unset so
the value will be printed as "invalid (0xffffffff)".
Finally, this feature might go away at some point, hopefully when we
have a more reliable way to get the same information.

-#if defined(__FreeBSD__) && __FreeBSD_version__ >= 500023
+#if defined(__FreeBSD__) && __FreeBSD_version >= 500023
is a genuine bug -- __FreeBSD_version__ does not exist.
The other one:
-#if (__FreeBSD__ < 5)
+#if (__FreeBSD_version < 500000)
pops out when you cross-compile the code:
__FreeBSD__ is a compiler predefine,
__FreeBSD_version is defined in <sys/param.h> .
Given that in this case (and all others in sys/dev/usb and sys/i4b)
the goal is to adapt to a different kernel interface, and not to
a compiler feature, I believe the correct form is the second one

the revived code.
vm pages newly allocated are marked busy (PG_BUSY), thus calling
vm_page_delete before the pages has been freed or unbusied will
cause a deadlock since vm_page_object_page_remove will wait for the
busy flag to be cleared. This can be triggered by calling malloc
with size > PAGE_SIZE and the M_NOWAIT flag on systems low on
physical free memory.

than the other implementations; we have complete control over the tlb, so we
only demap specific pages. We take advantage of the ranged tlb flush api
to send one ipi for a range of pages, and due to the pm_active optimization
we rarely send ipis for demaps from user pmaps.
Remove now unused routines to load the tlb; this is only done once outside
of the tlb fault handlers.
Minor cleanups to the smp startup code.
This boots multi user with both cpus active on a dual ultra 60 and on a
dual ultra 2.
Due to allocating tlb contexts on the fly, we only ever need to demap the
primary context, non-primary contexts have already been implicitly flushed
by context switching. All we really need to tell is if its a kernel demap
or not, and its easier just to compare against the kernel_pmap which is a
constant.
the context is not actually stolen, as it would be for i386. Instead of
deactivating a user vmspace immediately when switching out, and recycling
its tlb context, wait until the next context switch to a different user
vmspace. In this way we can switch from a user process to any number of
kernel threads and back to the same user process again, without losing any
of its mappings in the tlb that would not already be knocked by the automatic
replacement algorithm. This is not expected to have a measurable performance
improvement on the machines we currently run on, but it sounds cool and makes
the sparc64 port SMPng buzz word compliant.

1ULL / 1L is mispromoted. Anyway, casting the correct operand
