Though the license of the original ac(8) source code provides many
liberties, we are already somewhat violating it. The license requires us
to clearly comment any modifications to the source code, as the original
authors of course do not want to get bug reports for modified versions
of ac(8). This is something we have not done consistently.
The need for such a license clause has become less over time. It is very
unlikely that end users will contact the original authors, as the
copyright is from 1994. I contacted both the copyright holders. They
responded in a timely fashion and were more than willing to relicense it
to a 2-clause BSD license. To address any concerns about bug reports
going to the original authors instead of me, add my own name and email
address to the copyright statements as well.

this case, allocate a plain mbuf and copy the frame into it, then send the
copy up the stack, leaving the original mbuf+cluster in place in the
receive ring for immediate re-use. This saves a trip through 2 of the
3 zones of the compound mbuf allocator, a trip through busdma, and a trip
through the 1 of the 3 mbuf destructors. For our load at Netflix, this can
lower CPU consumption by as much as 20%. The copy algorithm is based on
investigative work from Luigi Rizzo earlier in the year.

handler and not more statically.
Unfortunately, it seems that this is not ideal for new platform bringup
and boot low level development (which needs ktr_cpumask to be effective
before tunables can be setup).
Because of this, add a way to statically initialize cpusets, by passing
an list of initializers, divided by commas. Also, provide a way to enforce
an all-set mask, for above mentioned initializers.
This imposes some differences on how KTR_CPUMASK is setup now as a
kernel option, and in particular this makes the words specifications
backward wrt. what is currently in -CURRENT. In order to avoid mismatches
between KTR_CPUMASK definition and other way to setup the mask
(tunable, sysctl) and to print it, change the ordering how
cpusetobj_print() and cpusetobj_scan() acquire the words belonging
to the set.
Please give a look to sys/conf/NOTES in order to understand how the
new format is supposed to work.
Also, ktr manpages will be updated shortly by gjb which volountereed
for this.
This patch won't be merged because it changes a POLA (at least
from the theoretical standpoint) and this is however a patch that
proves to be effective only in development environments.

the interface is brought up. Without this, the boot time interrupt
round-robin assignment does not think the allocated interrupt resources
are active and leaves them assigned to CPU 0.
While here, add descriptive tags to each interrupt handler when MSI-X
is used.

- Use queue(3) -- not some homegrown implementation of linked lists.
- Rename structures to _entry, as they are entries in the linked list --
not the lists themselves.
- Don't store entire copies of struct utmpx in utmpx_entry, but only the
members we're interested in. Large fields such as hostnames are not
needed during the execution of the program.
- Give structure members useful names, instead of `name'.
- While there, use struct timevals instead of time_t's internally. This
is not strictly useful, but while we're at it...
- Mark stuff static.
- Add missing const keywords.
- Remove unneeded prototypes.
- Remove workaround for sparc64-specific utmp problems. These don't
apply to utmpx.
- Don't discard entries when timestamps are not monotone. This shouldn't
ever happen with utmpx, but discarding them is a bit too harsh.
- Remove debug code. We nowadays have `getent utmpx', which can be used
to analyze logfiles in depth.
- Use proper uppercasing/periods in comments.
- Print output of `ac -p' sorted alphabetically, instead of first
occurrence.
- Properly check against pts/* instead of tty[PQRSpqrs]* to determine
whether a TTY is a pseudo-terminal.

This routine is intended only for commands such as INQUIRY where
the controller may fill out a smaller amount of data than allocated

The end result of this bug was that isci(4) would report non-zero

Specifying no argument is undocumented in the gas manual, and clang's
integrated assembler refuses to parse it. Also, removing it causes no

In fact, bus_dmamem_alloc() happily NULLs the dmat pointer passed in,
before replacing it with its own.
This fixes a MIPS crash when kldload'ing if_ath/if_ath_pci -
bus_dmamap_destroy() was passed in a NULL dmat pointer and was doing
all kinds of very bad things.
