the osigcontext or ucontext_t rather than useracc() followed by direct user-
space memory accesses. This reduces (o)sigreturn()'s execution time by 5-
50%.

bootinfo block in register r8. In locore.s we save the address
in the global variable 'pa_bootinfo'. In machdep.c we compare
this value against the hardwired address, but don't depend on its
validity yet (ie: we still expect the bootinfo block to be at the
hardwired address). After a small amount of time, we'll flip the
switch and depend on the loader to pass us the address. From that
moment on the loader is free to put it anywhere it likes, provided
the machine itself likes it as well.
Add some verbosity to aid in the transition. We emit a message if
the loader didn't pass the address and we also emit a message if
there's no bootinfo block at the hardwired address.
While in locore.s, reduce the number of redundant serialization
instructions. A srlz.i is a proper superset of a srlz.d and thus
is a valid replacement. Also slightly reorder the movl instructions
to improve bundle density.
register r8. We continue to write the bootinfo block at the same
hardwired address, because the kernel still expects it there.
It is expected that future kernels use register r8 to get to the
bootinfo block and don't depend on the hardwired address anymore.
Bump the loader version once again due to the interface change.
2) Cast ifdef_level to a size_t before comparing it to a ratio of size_ts.
Ifdef_level should always be positive.
3) Complete prototype for chfont.
4) Cast some ptrdiff_ts to ints before using as a field width.
5) Avoid shadowing a local variable p with another local variable p.
from CD-ROM in 4-stable. Note that in 5-current, we use devfs so this
change (hopefully) shouldn't change anything.
I'll MFC to 4-stable later.
Tested with: FreeBSD/i386, 4.5-STABLE-20020330-JPSNAP
so the .lo files can be partially linked against libraries
which redefine symbols in the standard libs, or which reference
symbols in the objects.

2) Move a break outside a #if block to keep gcc3 from seeing a "default:"
at the end of a block.
3) Fix some format warnings. Some remain which can be fixed more easily
when we have a full C99 printf.
These functions use DEV_STRATEGY() which can easily return a short
count (with no error) for reads near EOF. EOF happens for "disks" too
small to contain a label sector (mainly for empty slices). The functions
didn't understand this at all, and looked for labels in the garbage
in the buffer beyond what DEV_STRATEGY() returned. The recent UMA
changes combined with my local changes and configuration resulted in
the garbage often containing a valid but garbage label left over from
a previous call.
Bugs in EOF handling in -current limited the problem to "disks" with
size precisely LABELSECTOR sectors. LABELSECTOR happens to be a very
unusual "disk" size since it is only 0 for non-i386 arches that don't
usually have disks with DOS MBRs.
provided the latter is nonzero. At this point, the former is a fairly
arbitrary default value (DFTPHYS), so changing it to any reasonable
value specified by the device driver is safe. Using the maximum of
these limits broke ffs clustered i/o for devices whose si_iosize_max
is < DFLTPHYS. Using the minimum would break device drivers' ability
to increase the active limit from DFTLPHYS up to MAXPHYS.
Copied the code for this and the associated (unnecessary?) fixup of
mp_iosize_max to all other filesystems that use clustering (ext2fs and
msdosfs). It was completely missing.

only care if it's network or not at this time. If we're loaded from
the network, we set currdev (=loaddev) so that the kernel is loaded
from the network as well. In all other cases we initialize to disk.
This makes netbooting more convenient and can easily be enhanced to
do more elaborate checking.
Most significantly (from an interfacing point of view) is the
support for the FPSWA pointer passing. Even though that was added
4 months ago, it's probably not a bad idea to bump the version
number to reflect this.
o Query the state field of the protocol mode to determine whether
we need to start and/or initialize the protocol. When we're
loaded across the network, the protocol has already been started
and is already initialized. When no networking has happened yet,
we have to start and initialize the protocol ourselves.
o After initialization, we have to set the receive filters. Not
doing this results in a deaf interface. We set the unicast and
broadcast filters. Multicast may not be supported. This specific
change fixes the problem we had that we could not netboot if
the loader was started from the EFI shell.
o To help future debugging, add a function that dumps the current
mode of the interface. It's conditional on EFINET_DEBUG.
o To help in runtime problems, emit a diagnostic message when we
could not initialize the protocol properly.
