There are special cases where tty_rel_free() can be called twice in a
row, namely when closing and revoking the TTY at the same moment. Only
call destroy_dev_sched_cb() once.

returns the requested unit number if it is free. If the number is
already allocated or out of the range, -1 is returned.
Update alloc_unr(9) manual page accordingly and add a MLINK for
alloc_unr_specific(9).

- Rename tdsignal() to tdsendsignal() and make it private to kern_sig.c.
- Add tdsignal() and tdksignal() routines that mirror psignal() and
pksignal() except that they accept a thread as an argument instead of
a process. They send a signal to a specific thread rather than to an
individual process.

shm syscalls, and initial check for the number of allocated segments
in the module deinitialization code, the following might happen:
after the check for active segment, while waiting for threads to
leave some other syscall, shmget(2) is called. Then, we can end
up with the shared segment that cannot be detached since sysvshm
module is unloaded.
Prevent the leak by rechecking and disclaiming a reference to the vm
object owned by sysvshm module, that might have grown during the drain.

writing event timer drivers, for choosing best possible drivers by machine
independent code and for operating them to supply kernel with hardclock(),
statclock() and profclock() events in unified fashion on various hardware.
Infrastructure provides support for both per-CPU (independent for every CPU
core) and global timers in periodic and one-shot modes. MI management code
at this moment uses only periodic mode, but one-shot mode use planned for
later, as part of tickless kernel project.
For this moment infrastructure used on i386 and amd64 architectures. Other
archs are welcome to follow, while their current operation should not be
affected.
This patch updates existing drivers (i8254, RTC and LAPIC) for the new
order, and adds event timers support into the HPET driver. These drivers
have different capabilities:
LAPIC - per-CPU timer, supports periodic and one-shot operation, may
freeze in C3 state, calibrated on first use, so may be not exactly precise.
HPET - depending on hardware can work as per-CPU or global, supports
periodic and one-shot operation, usually provides several event timers.
i8254 - global, limited to periodic mode, because same hardware used also
as time counter.
RTC - global, supports only periodic mode, set of frequencies in Hz
limited by powers of 2.
Depending on hardware capabilities, drivers preferred in following orders,
either LAPIC, HPETs, i8254, RTC or HPETs, LAPIC, i8254, RTC.
User may explicitly specify wanted timers via loader tunables or sysctls:
kern.eventtimer.timer1 and kern.eventtimer.timer2.
If requested driver is unavailable or unoperational, system will try to
replace it. If no more timers available or "NONE" specified for second,
system will operate using only one timer, multiplying it's frequency by few
times and uing respective dividers to honor hz, stathz and profhz values,
set during initial setup.
New code that creates character devices shouldn't use device unit
numbers, but only si_drv[12] to hold pointer to per-device data. Make
this function more future proof by removing the unit number argument.

- Allow setting format, resolution and accuracy of BPF time stamps per
listener. Previously, we were only able to use microtime(9). Now we can
set various resolutions and accuracies with ioctl(2) BIOCSTSTAMP command.
Similarly, we can get the current resolution and accuracy with BIOCGTSTAMP
command. Document all supported options in bpf(4) and their uses.
- Introduce new time stamp 'struct bpf_ts' and header 'struct bpf_xhdr'.
The new time stamp has both 64-bit second and fractional parts. bpf_xhdr
has this time stamp instead of 'struct timeval' for bh_tstamp. The new
structures let us use bh_tstamp of same size on both 32-bit and 64-bit
platforms without adding additional shims for 32-bit binaries. On 64-bit
platforms, size of BPF header does not change compared to bpf_hdr as its
members are already all 64-bit long. On 32-bit platforms, the size may
increase by 8 bytes. For backward compatibility, struct bpf_hdr with
struct timeval is still the default header unless new time stamp format is
explicitly requested. However, the behaviour may change in the future and
all relevant code is wrapped around "#ifdef BURN_BRIDGES" for now.
- Add experimental support for tagging mbufs with time stamps from a lower
layer, e.g., device driver. Currently, mbuf_tags(9) is used to tag mbufs.
The time stamps must be uptime in 'struct bintime' format as binuptime(9)
and getbinuptime(9) do.

As Warner noted, allowing the functions to sleep might cause

The new values are chosen mostly by magic. They are still fairly
small and will need increasing for large installations (especially
SHMMAX). However, they are now enough to e.g. start PostgreSQL

dirty range (previously in vfs_setdirty()) and to clean the pages
(vfs_clean_pages()) into new function vfs_clean_pages_dirty_buf(). Now
the vm object lock is acquired only once.
Drain the VPO_BUSY bit of the buffer pages before setting valid
and clean bits in vfs_clean_pages_dirty_buf() with new helper
vfs_drain_busy_pages(). pmap_clear_modify() asserts that page is not
busy.
In vfs_busy_pages(), move the wait for draining of VPO_BUSY before
the dirtyness handling, to follow the structure of
vfs_clean_pages_dirty_buf().
