I've added a structure, kernel-private, to represent a pending or in-delivery
signal, called `ksiginfo'. It is roughly analogous to the basic information
that is exported by the POSIX interface 'siginfo_t', but more basic. I've
added functions to allocate these structures, and further to wrap all signal
operations using them.
Once the operations are wrapped, I've added a TailQ (see queue(3)) of these
structures to 'struct proc', and all pending signals are in that TailQ. When
a signal is being delivered, it is dequeued from the list. Once I finish
the spreading of ksiginfo throughout the tree, the dequeued structure will be
delivered to the process in question, whereas currently and normally, the
signal number is what is used.
userland. If someone wants to implement a backup p_siglist in the kernel
for compatability and to export one could. For now, just tell KVM to hand
an empty signal set off to the userland.

- In mi_switch(), set PS_XCPU when the CPU time limit is exceeded.
- Perform actual CPU time limit exceeded work in ast() when PS_XCPU is set.

interlock in getnewvnode() to avoid possible sleeps while holding
the mutex. Note that the warning from Witness is a slight false
positive since we know there will be no contention on the interlock
since we haven't made the vnode available for use yet, but the theory
is not a bad one.

prototyped functions to get a sigset_t, and further to check for any
queued signals, rather than an empty signal set, to go with the move
to signal queues rather than signal sets.
gets signals operating based on a TailQ, and is good enough to run X11,
GNOME, and do job control. There are some intricate parts which could be
more refined to match the sigset_t versions, but those require further
evaluation of directions in which our signal system can expand and contract
to fit our needs.
After this has been in the tree for a while, I will make in kernel API
changes, most notably to trapsignal(9) and sendsig(9), to use ksiginfo
more robustly, such that we can actually pass information with our
(queued) signals to the userland. That will also result in using a
struct ksiginfo pointer, rather than a signal number, in a lot of
kern_sig.c, to refer to an individual pending signal queue member, but
right now there is no defined behaviour for such.
CODAFS is unfinished in this regard because the logic is unclear in
some places.

timestamped TCP packets where FreeBSD will send DATA+FIN and
A W2K box will ack just the DATA portion. If this occurs
after FreeBSD has done a (NewReno) fast-retransmit and is
recovering it (dupacks > threshold) it triggers a case in
tcp_newreno_partial_ack() (tcp_newreno() in stable) where
tcp_output() is called with the expectation that the retransmit
timer will be reloaded. But tcp_output() falls through and
returns without doing anything, causing the persist timer to be
loaded instead. This causes the connection to hang until W2K gives up.
This occurs because in the case where only the FIN must be acked, the
'len' calculation in tcp_output() will be 0, a lot of checks will be
skipped, and the FIN check will also be skipped because it is designed
to handle FIN retransmits, not forced transmits from tcp_newreno().
The solution is to simply set TF_ACKNOW before calling tcp_output()
to absolute guarentee that it will run the send code and reset the
retransmit timer. TF_ACKNOW is already used for this purpose in other
cases.
For some unknown reason this patch also seems to greatly reduce
the number of duplicate acks received when Guido runs his tests over
a lossy network. It is quite possible that there are other
tcp_newreno{_partial_ack()} cases which were not generating the expected
output which this patch also fixes.

code path to fix a bug in the non USB_USE_SOFTINTR path that caused
the usb bus to hang and generally misbehave when devices were unplugged.
In the process though it also reduced the throughput of usb devices because
of a less than optimal implementation under FreeBSD.
This commit fixes the non USB_USE_SOFTINTR code in uhci and ohci
so that it works again, and switches back to using this code path.
The uhci code has been tested, but the ohci code hasn't. It's
essentially the same anyway and so I don't envisage any difficulties.
