Move a lot of variables home to their own code (In good time before xmas :-)
Introduce the string descrition of format.
Add a couple more functions to poke into these marvels, while I try to
decide what the correct interface should look like.
Next is adding vars on the fly, and sysctl looking at them too.
Removed a tine bit of defunct and #ifdefed notused code in swapgeneric.
Staticized some functions.
__purified some functions. Some functions were bogusly declared as
returning `const'. This hasn't done anything since gcc-2.5. For
later versions of gcc, the equivalent is __attribute__((const)) at
the end of function declarations.
That's EVERY SINGLE driver that has an entry in conf.c..
my next trick will be to define cdevsw[] and bdevsw[]
as empty arrays and remove all those DAMNED defines as well..
Each of these drivers has a SYSINIT linker set entry
that comes in very early.. and asks teh driver to add it's own
entry to the two devsw[] tables.
some slight reworking of the commits from yesterday (added the SYSINIT
stuff and some usually wrong but token DEVFS entries to all these
devices.
BTW does anyone know where the 'ata' entries in conf.c actually reside?
seems we don't actually have a 'ataopen() etc...
If you want to add a new device in conf.c
please make sure I know
so I can keep it up to date too..
as before, this is all dependent on #if defined(JREMOD)
(and #ifdef DEVFS in parts)
This closes a probably rare but nonetheless real window that would result
in a process hanging or the system panicing.

Ifdefed duplicated decentralized declarations of args structs. It's
convenient to have this visible but they are hard to maintain. Some
are already different from the central declarations. 4.4lite2 puts
them in comments in the function headers but I wanted to avoid the
large changes for that.
These functions went away:

Probably fixed the type of d_reset_t. It is hard to tell the correct

Removed last vestige of ambiguous sleep message strings.

vm.h:
Don't include <machine/cpufunc.h>. It is already included by
<sys/systm.h> in the kernel and isn't designed to be included by

current version has initializers that are invalid in strict C++).

This code might afford proper panics as opposed to spontaneous reboots
on certain systems. This should allow us to debug these problems better.
David Greenman, it has been determined that the more sophisticated code
only made a very minor difference in fault performance. Therefore, this
code eliminates some of the complication of the fault code, decreasing
the amount of CPU used to scan shadow chains.
UPAGES and associated page table page. Panic on error. This is less than
optimial and will be fixed in the future, but is better than the old
behavior of panicing with a "kernel page directory invalid" in pmap_enter.

This is a composite of 3 patch sets submitted by terry.
they are:
New low-level init code that supports loadbal modules better
some cleanups in the namei code to help terry in 16-bit character support
some changes to the mount-root code to make it a little more
modular..
NOTE: mounting root off cdrom or NFS MIGHT be broken as I haven't been able
to test those cases..
certainly mounting root of disk still works just fine..
mfs should work but is untested. (tomorrows task)
The low level init stuff includes a total rewrite of init_main.c
to make it possible for new modules to have an init phase by simply
adding an entry to a TEXT_SET (or is it DATA_SET) list. thus a new module can
be added to the kernel without editing any other files other than the
'files' file.
