2f97cd9772 Remove current implementation of kldstat macro.
Add new kldstat, kldstat-v and kernel macros.  The kldstat macro is
functionally equivalent to the previous implementation, but it looks
prettier and it matches the kldstat-v macro better.  kldstat-v gives
output similar to userland kldstat -v (note lacking space), and kernel
loads a new kernel and dump.

68c1166195 Add documentation for previously undocumented macros, and correct
existing documentation.  This is not made any easier by the
brain-damaged format required for the documentation: one line, no full
stops or commas.

Remove macro xy.  I can't see any use for it any more.

d5947fd154 Add comments to deter people from using this file directly. That's
not the intention.

Rearrange "you may want to change these values" values to the top, and
reduce their number as much as possible.

tr macro: Require a parameter (because gdb is too stupid to understand
optional parameters), and create macros tr0, tr1 and trf which call it
to connect to /dev/cuaa0, /dev/cuaa1 and firewire connections
respectively.

Split kld symbol load into two separate macros: revision 1.5
simplified things for the /dev/mem case, but broke it for anything
else.  Now the simple /dev/mem version is called kldsyms, and the
version for serial debugging and processor dumps is called getsyms,
and still requires this irritating cut and paste.

Change comments on startup to make life easier for the poor
(de)bugger.

1e01559458 Add a "-f" flag for asf(8) which performs a search to find the each module
no matter where in the directory structure it may be.  Use this and the "-k"
flag in the generated gdbinit files so that the "getsyms" function in gdb
requires no user intervention to run and will find every module if they're
in the kernel build's module directory.  This is still quite useful for
cases where gdb knows that the path for some modules is /boot/kernel and
others are in the object directory for /usr/src/sys/$ARCH/compile/kernel.

2ab324d92f Replace hard-coded module path with a keyword which gets changed when
the kernel is built.

automatically terminate them.

01c6323d54 Modify startup mode: don't specify the file name for the debug kernel,
so it needs to be (and can be) specified on the command line.  Don't
try to automatically connect to a remote machine, so that the same
.gdbinit file can be used for analysing processor dumps.

df67c67a7d Add macros for kernel debugging. These have been around for a
while, and they will need some more tuning before they're really
useful, but at the moment they're better than nothing.
