expected. This bug caused builds of Modula-3 to fail in mysterious
ways on SMP kernels. More precisely, such builds failed on systems
with kern.fast_vfork equal to 0, the default and only supported
value for SMP kernels.

- Express various sizes in bytes, rather than Kbytes, in the video
mode and adapter information structures.
- Fill 0 in the linear buffer size field if the linear frame buffer
is not available.
- Remove SW_VESA_USER ioctl. It is still experimetal and was not meant
to be released.
- Fix missing cast operator.
- Correctly handle pointers returned by the VESA BIOS. The pointers
may point to the area either in the BIOS ROM or in the buffer supplied
by the caller.
- Set the destructive cursor at the right moment.
o Use the board id command to find out what kind of board
we're talking to. If we're talking to a board that is has
an ID that is shared between boards supported by the aha
driver and the bt driver, then use the bt's geometry
register to weed out the bt cards. Otherwise assume that we
support this card.
o Remove bt esetup command sending to the card. It seems to
wedge too many cards.
o Revert to doing a soft reset after an invalid command. This
change didn't fix anything, so I'm backing it out. The
whole issue of card resetting needs to be revisisted at some
point so that we can do it properly on all hardware.
o GC unused stuff in some places.

Based heavily on aout_freebsd.c. Hmm.. There's so much in common that
these could probably be combined and just check the metadata to see which
format it is.
so far, and should probably be able to be made to work for the alpha
without too much trouble once it's connected up and my assumptions tested.
I think (but have not tested) it will also load "old" ELF kernels that
were not linked with DYNAMIC headers.
The module glue is yet to come. (oh fun.. :-)
It does not explicitly load symbols [yet]. The _DYNAMIC data contains a
runtime symbol set that ddb can use via ddb/db_kld.c. It'll be missing
some detail that stabs normally provides (eg: number of args to a function,
line numbers, etc). On the other hand, those minimal symbols will always
be available even on a stripped kernel.
This is mostly stolen from load_aout.c with some ideas from
alpha/libalpha/elf_freebsd.c.
the in-kernel linker to access the _DYNAMIC data for doing loadable elf
modules. The alpha kernel is already done this way, I've borrowed some of
the hacks from there.
This is primarily aimed at the 3-stage boot process which is intended to
be able to do pre-loading of kernel modules.
Note that the entry point isn't 0xf0100000 any more, it'll be a little
further on - but this value is stored in the headers. I don't think this
will be a problem, but I'm sure somebody will tell me if it is. :-)
I'm not sure if btxboot is going to like this, it doesn't do proper ELF
header checking and assumes that there are exactly two program header
entries and that they are both PT_LOAD entries - a bad assumption.

for some of the fsinfo RPC fields. It is strictly speaking not
wrong to do this, as the spec says that "it is expected that a
server will make a best effort at supporting all the attributes",
but pretty unusual. You guessed it, it's NT servers that do it.'

is being deleted due to an forcible unmount. The problem is
that vgone calls vclean() which then calls calls nfs_inactive()
with VXLOCK set on the vnode. Nfs_inactive() was calling vget()
to get a reference on the vnode, which in turn hung on VXLOCK.
Nfs_inactive() now checks v_usecount to make sure that the vnode
is not coming from vclean() before it does a vget().
is less than NFS_MINPACKET or greater than NFS_MAXPACKET in size, it
barfs and, I think, drops the connection.
However, there's no guarantee that in a multi-fragment RPC, all the
fragments will be at least as large as NFS_MINPACKET.
In fact, with the version of "tclnfs" we have here, which supports NFS
over TCP, at least when built under SunOS 4.1.3 (i.e., with 4.1.3's
user-mode ONC RPC library), I can *repeatably* cause "tclnfs" to send a
request with more than one fragment, one of which is only 8 bytes long.
I just do a 3877-byte write to a file, at an offset of 0.
The check that "slp->ns_reclen" is greater than or equal to
NFS_MINPACKET serves no useful purpose - if the NFS server code can't
handle packets < NFS_MINPACKET bytes, it can't handle them over *any*
protocol, so the check has to be done above the RPC-over-TCP layer - and
should be removed.
