user stack in response to a failed window fill, allowing the process to be
killed if its wrong. This caused user programs which misalign their stack
pointer to get stuck in an infinite loop at the kernel-userland boundary,
which is mostly harmless.
The same thing causes a fatal RED state exception on OpenBSD and probably
NetBSD.

and pmap_copy_page(). This gets rid of a couple more physical addresses
in upper layers, with the eventual aim of supporting PAE and dealing with
the physical addressing mostly within pmap. (We will need either 64 bit
physical addresses or page indexes, possibly both depending on the
circumstances. Leaving this to pmap itself gives more flexibilitly.)

The main complication for this is that we have to set flags to control
ast() everywhere that changes the signal mask.
Avoid locking in userret() in most of the remaining cases.

- Add a new function mutex_init() used to perform early initialization
needed for mutexes such as setting up thread0's contested lock list
and initializing MI mutexes. Change the various MD startup routines
to call this function instead of duplicating all the code themselves.

three MI source files that need it.
Backout and re-apply improperly comitted syntactical cleanups made to files
that were still under active development. Backout improperly comitted program
structure changes that moved localized declarations to the top of two
procedures. Partially re-apply one of the program structure changes to
move 'mask' into an intermediate block rather then in three separate
sub-blocks to make the code more readable. Re-integrate bug fixes that Jake
made to the sparc64 code.
Note: In general, developers should not gratuitously move declarations out
of sub-blocks. They are where they are for reasons of structure, grouping,
readability, compiler-localizability, and to avoid developer-introduced bugs
similar to several found in recent years in the VFS and VM code.

code can use it. This takes a single constant argument and fails to compile
if it is 0 (false). The main application of this is to make assertions about
structure sizes at compile time, in order to validate assumptions made in
other code. Examples:
CTASSERT(sizeof(struct foo) == FOO_SIZEOF);
CTASSERT(sizeof(struct foo) == (1 << FOO_SHIFT));

dump the trace buffer feasible.
- Remove KTR_EXTEND. This changes the format of the trace entries when
activated, making writing a userland tool which is not tied to a specific
kernel configuration difficult.
- Use get_cyclecount() for timestamps. nanotime() is much too heavy weight
and requires recursion protection due to ktr traces occuring as a result
of ktr traces. KTR_VERBOSE may still require recursion protection, which
is now conditional on it.
- Allow KTR_CPU to be overridden by MD code. This is so that it is possible
to trace early in startup before pcpu and/or curthread are setup.
- Add a version number for the ktr interface. A userland tool can check this
to detect mismatches.
- Use an array for the parameters to make decoding in userland easier.
- Add file and line recording to the non-extended traces now that the extended
version is no more.
These changes will break gdb macros to decode the extended version of the
trace buffer which are floating around. Users of these macros should either
use the show ktr command in ddb, or use the userland utility which can be run
on a core dump.

we just check for the flag instead of doing string compares.
Also, switch the process lock, process group lock, and uma per cpu locks over
to this interface. The original mechanism did not work well for uma because
per cpu lock names are unique to each zone.

disablement assumptions in kern_fork.c by adding another API call,
cpu_critical_fork_exit(). Cleanup the td_savecrit field by moving it
from MI to MD. Temporarily move cpu_critical*() from <arch>/include/cpufunc.h
to <arch>/<arch>/critical.c (stage-2 will clean this up).
Implement interrupt deferral for i386 that allows interrupts to remain
enabled inside critical sections. This also fixes an IPI interlock bug,
and requires uses of icu_lock to be enclosed in a true interrupt disablement.
This is the stage-1 commit. Stage-2 will occur after stage-1 has stabilized,
and will move cpu_critical*() into its own header file(s) + other things.
This commit may break non-i386 architectures in trivial ways. This should
be temporary.
