Flushing TLBs is required to ensure cache coherency according to the AMD64
architecture manual. Flushing caches is only required when changing from a
cacheable memory type (WB, WP, or WT) to an uncacheable type (WC, UC, or
UC-). Since this function is only used once per processor during startup,
there is no need to take any shortcuts.
- Leave PAT indices 0-3 at the default of WB, WT, UC-, and UC. Program 5 as
WP (from default WT) and 6 as WC (from default UC-). Leave 4 and 7 at the
default of WB and UC. This is to avoid transition from a cacheable memory
type to an uncacheable type to minimize possible cache incoherency. Since
we perform flushing caches and TLBs now, this change may not be necessary
any more but we do not want to take any chances.
- Remove Apple hardware specific quirks. With the above changes, it seems
this hack is no longer needed.
- Improve pmap_cache_bits() with an array to map PAT memory type to index.
This array is initialized early from pmap_init_pat(), so that we do not need
to handle special cases in the function any more. Now this function is
identical on both amd64 and i386.

The Myri10GE NIC will assume all TSO frames contain partial checksum,
and will emit TSO segments with bad TCP checksums if a TSO frame
contains a full checksum. The mxge driver takes care to make sure
that TSO is disabled when checksum offload is disabled for this
reason. However, modules that modify packet contents (like pf) may
end up completing a checksum on a TSO frame, leading to the NIC emitting
TSO segments with bad checksums.
To workaround this, restore the partial checksum in the mxge driver
when we're fed a TSO frame with a full checksum.

thread specific informations.
In order to do that, and in order to avoid KBI breakage with existing
infrastructure the following semantic is implemented:
- For live programs, a new member to the PT_LWPINFO is added (pl_tdname)
- For cores, a new ELF note is added (NT_THRMISC) that can be used for
storing thread specific, miscellaneous, informations. Right now it is
just popluated with a thread name.
GDB, then, retrieves the correct informations from the corefile via the
BFD interface, as it groks the ELF notes and create appropriate
pseudo-sections.

more than 1s earlier. Prior to this commit, the computation of
th_scale * delta (which produces a 64-bit value equal to the time since
the last tc_windup call in units of 2^(-64) seconds) would overflow and
any complete seconds would be lost.
We fix this by repeatedly converting tc_frequency units of timecounter
to one seconds; this is not exactly correct, since it loses the NTP
adjustment, but if we find ourselves going more than 1s at a time between
clock interrupts, losing a few seconds worth of NTP adjustments is the
least of our problems...
on FreeBSD (amd64), invocations of "javac" (or "java") eventually

This is caused by:
1. After calling exec() in multithreaded linux program threads are not
destroyed and continue running. They get killed after program being

2. linux_exit_group doesn't return correct exit code when called not
