statclock based on profhz when profiling is enabled MD, since most platforms
don't use this anyway. This removes the need for statclock_process, whose
only purpose was to subdivide profhz, and gets the profiling clock running
outside of sched_lock on platforms that implement suswintr.
Also changed the interface for starting and stopping the profiling clock to
do just that, instead of changing the rate of statclock, since they can now
be separate.

kernel to add support for extended attributes; for UFS2, it's sufficient
to enable ACLs using tunefs or at mount-time (tunefs preferred for
reliability reasons). UFS2, for a variety of reasons, including

Put the GEOM related options into the intended order.
Add "options NO_GEOM" to all kernel configs apart from NOTES.
In some order of controlled fashion, the NO_GEOM options will be
removed, architecture by architecture in the coming days.
There are currently three known issues which may force people to
need the NO_GEOM option:
boot0cfg/fdisk:
Tries to update the MBR while it is being used to control
slices. GEOM does not allow this as a direct operation.
SCSI floppy drives:
Appearantly the scsi-da driver return "EBUSY" if no media

PC98:
It is unclear if GEOM correctly recognizes all variants of
PC98 disklabels. (Help Wanted! I have neither docs nor HW)

Peter had repocopied sys/disklabel.h to sys/diskpc98.h and sys/diskmbr.h.
These two new copies are still intact copies of disklabel.h and
therefore protected by #ifndef _SYS_DISKLABEL_H_ so #including them
in programs which already include <sys.disklabel.h> is currently a
no-op.
This commit adds a number of such #includes.
Once I have verified that I have fixed all the places which need fixing,
I will commit the updated versions of the three #include files.

If struct disklabel is the messenger: kill the messenger.
Inside struct disk we had a struct disklabel which disk drivers used to
communicate certain metrics to the disklayer above (GEOM or the disk
mini-layer). This commit changes this communication to use four
explicit fields instead.
Amongst the benefits is that the fields do not get overwritten by
wrong or bogus on-disk disklabels.
Once that is clear, <sys/disk.h> which is included in the drivers
no longer need to pull <sys/disklabel.h> and <sys/diskslice.h> in,
the few places that needs them, have gotten explicit #includes for
them.
The disklabel inside struct disk is now only for internal use in
the disk mini-layer, so instead of embedding it, we malloc it as
we need it.
This concludes (modulus any mistakes) the series of disklabel related
commits.
I belive it all amounts to a NOP for all the rest of you :-)

This part of sendsig could be slightly refactored to use an MI interface, or
ideally, *sendsig*() would have an API change to accept a siginfo_t, which
would be filled out by an MI function in the level above sendsig, and said MI
function would make a small call into MD code to fill out the MD parts (some
of which may be bogus, such as the si_addr stuff in some places). This would
eventually make it possible for parts of the kernel sending signals to set up
a siginfo with meaningful information.

A less grand view is that this is just another way to package SCSI (SPI or

next few weeks as it stabilizes.

up. The dynamic kernel environment is protected by an sx lock.
This adds some new functions to manipulate the kernel environment :
freeenv(), setenv(), unsetenv() and testenv(). freeenv() has to be
called after every getenv() when you have finished using the string.
testenv() only tests if an environment variable is present, and
doesn't require a freeenv() call. setenv() and unsetenv() are self
explanatory.
The kenv(2) syscall exports these new functionalities to userland,
mainly for kenv(1).

general cleanup of the API. The entire API now consists of two functions
similar to the pre-KSE API. The suser() function takes a thread pointer
as its only argument. The td_ucred member of this thread must be valid
so the only valid thread pointers are curthread and a few kernel threads
such as thread0. The suser_cred() function takes a pointer to a struct
ucred as its first argument and an integer flag as its second argument.
The flag is currently only used for the PRISON_ROOT flag.

Implement interrupt deferral for i386 that allows interrupts to remain

This commit may break non-i386 architectures in trivial ways. This should
