the semantics in that the returned filename to use is now a kernel
pointer rather than a user space pointer. This required changing the
arguments to the CHECKALT*() macros some and changing the various system
calls that used pathnames to use the kern_foo() functions that can accept
kernel space filename pointers instead of calling the system call
directly.

structure in the struct pointed to by the 3rd argument for IPC_STAT and
get rid of the 4th argument. The old way returned a pointer into the
kernel array that the calling function would then access afterwards
without holding the appropriate locks and doing non-lock-safe things like
copyout() with the data anyways. This change removes that unsafeness and
resulting race conditions as well as simplifying the interface.
- Implement kern_foo wrappers for stat(), lstat(), fstat(), statfs(),
fstatfs(), and fhstatfs(). Use these wrappers to cut out a lot of
code duplication for freebsd4 and netbsd compatability system calls.
- Add a new lookup function kern_alternate_path() that looks up a filename
under an alternate prefix and determines which filename should be used.
This is basically a more general version of linux_emul_convpath() that
can be shared by all the ABIs thus allowing for further reduction of
code duplication.

more generic solution has to be designed WRT emulating various ioctl()s

ioctl() is emulated, so that it makes little sense.

USB device support):
- Convert all of my locally chosen function names to their actual
Windows equivalents, where applicable. This is a big no-op change
since it doesn't affect functionality, but it helps avoid a bit
of confusion (it's now a lot easier to see which functions are
emulated Windows API routines and which are just locally defined).
- Turn ndis_buffer into an mdl, like it should have been. The structure
is the same, but now it belongs to the subr_ntoskrnl module.
- Implement a bunch of MDL handling macros from Windows and use them where
applicable.
- Correct the implementation of IoFreeMdl().
- Properly implement IoAllocateMdl() and MmBuildMdlForNonPagedPool().
- Add the definitions for struct irp and struct driver_object.
- Add IMPORT_FUNC() and IMPORT_FUNC_MAP() macros to make formatting
the module function tables a little cleaner. (Should also help
with AMD64 support later on.)
- Fix if_ndis.c to use KeRaiseIrql() and KeLowerIrql() instead of
the previous calls to hal_raise_irql() and hal_lower_irql() which
have been renamed.
The function renaming generated a lot of churn here, but there should
be very little operational effect.
calls MiniportQueryInformation(), it will return NDIS_STATUS_PENDING.
When this happens, ndis_get_info() will sleep waiting for a completion
event. If two threads call ndis_get_info() and both end up having to
sleep, they will both end up waiting on the same wait channel, which
can cause a panic in sleepq_add() if INVARIANTS are turned on.
Fix this by having ndis_get_info() use a common mutex rather than
using the process mutex with PROC_LOCK(). Also do the same for
ndis_set_info(). Note that Pierre's original patch also made ndis_thsuspend()
use the new mutex, but ndis_thsuspend() shouldn't need this since
it will make each thread that calls it sleep on a unique wait channel.
Also, it occured to me that we probably don't want to enter
MiniportQueryInformation() or MiniportSetInformation() from more
than one thread at any given time, so now we acquire a Windows
spinlock before calling either of them. The Microsoft documentation
says that MiniportQueryInformation() and MiniportSetInformation()
are called at DISPATCH_LEVEL, and previously we would call
KeRaiseIrql() to set the IRQL to DISPATCH_LEVEL before entering
either routine, but this only guarantees mutual exclusion on
uniprocessor machines. To make it SMP safe, we need to use a real
spinlock. For now, I'm abusing the spinlock embedded in the
NDIS_MINIPORT_BLOCK structure for this purpose. (This may need to be
applied to some of the other routines in kern_ndis.c at a later date.)
Export ntoskrnl_init_lock() (KeInitializeSpinlock()) from subr_ntoskrnl.c
since we need to use in in kern_ndis.c, and since it's technically part
of the Windows kernel DDK API along with the other spinlock routines. Use
it in subr_ndis.c too rather than frobbing the spinlock directly.

sysctl routines and state. Add some code to use it for signalling the need
to downconvert a data structure to 32 bits on a 64 bit OS when requested by
a 32 bit app.
I tried to do this in a generic abi wrapper that intercepted the sysctl
oid's, or looked up the format string etc, but it was a real can of worms
that turned into a fragile mess before I even got it partially working.
With this, we can now run 'sysctl -a' on a 32 bit sysctl binary and have
it not abort. Things like netstat, ps, etc have a long way to go.
This also fixes a bug in the kern.ps_strings and kern.usrstack hacks.
These do matter very much because they are used by libc_r and other things.
After some discussion the best option seems to be to signal the thread's
death from within the kernel. This requires that thr_exit() take an
argument.

the raw values including for child process statistics and only compute the
system and user timevals on demand.
- Fix the various kern_wait() syscall wrappers to only pass in a rusage
pointer if they are going to use the result.
- Add a kern_getrusage() function for the ABI syscalls to use so that they
don't have to play stackgap games to call getrusage().
- Fix the svr4_sys_times() syscall to just call calcru() to calculate the
times it needs rather than calling getrusage() twice with associated
stackgap, etc.
- Add a new rusage_ext structure to store raw time stats such as tick counts
for user, system, and interrupt time as well as a bintime of the total
runtime. A new p_rux field in struct proc replaces the same inline fields
from struct proc (i.e. p_[isu]ticks, p_[isu]u, and p_runtime). A new p_crux
field in struct proc contains the "raw" child time usage statistics.
ruadd() has been changed to handle adding the associated rusage_ext
structures as well as the values in rusage. Effectively, the values in
rusage_ext replace the ru_utime and ru_stime values in struct rusage. These
two fields in struct rusage are no longer used in the kernel.
- calcru() has been split into a static worker function calcru1() that
calculates appropriate timevals for user and system time as well as updating
the rux_[isu]u fields of a passed in rusage_ext structure. calcru() uses a
copy of the process' p_rux structure to compute the timevals after updating
the runtime appropriately if any of the threads in that process are
currently executing. It also now only locks sched_lock internally while
doing the rux_runtime fixup. calcru() now only requires the caller to
hold the proc lock and calcru1() only requires the proc lock internally.
calcru() also no longer allows callers to ask for an interrupt timeval
since none of them actually did.
- calcru() now correctly handles threads executing on other CPUs.
- A new calccru() function computes the child system and user timevals by
calling calcru1() on p_crux. Note that this means that any code that wants
child times must now call this function rather than reading from p_cru
directly. This function also requires the proc lock.
- This finishes the locking for rusage and friends so some of the Giant locks
in exit1() and kern_wait() are now gone.
- The locking in ttyinfo() has been tweaked so that a shared lock of the
proctree lock is used to protect the process group rather than the process
group lock. By holding this lock until the end of the function we now
ensure that the process/thread that we pick to dump info about will no
longer vanish while we are trying to output its info to the console.

This was tested with a Netgear WG311v2 802.11b/g PCI card. Things
that were fixed:
- This chip has two memory mapped regions, one at PCIR_BAR(0) and the
other at PCIR_BAR(1). This is a little different from the other
chips I've seen with two PCI shared memory regions, since they tend
to have the second BAR ad PCIR_BAR(2). if_ndis_pci.c tests explicitly
for PCIR_BAR(2). This has been changed to simply fill in ndis_res_mem
first and ndis_res_altmem second, if a second shared memory range
exists. Given that NDIS drivers seem to scan for BARs in ascending
order, I think this should be ok.
- Fixed the code that tries to process firmware images that have been
loaded as .ko files. To save a step, I was setting up the address
mapping in ndis_open_file(), but ndis_map_file() flags pre-existing
mappings as an error (to avoid duplicate mappings). Changed this so
that the mapping is now donw in ndis_map_file() as expected.
- Made the typedef for 'driver_entry' explicitly include __stdcall
to silence gcc warning in ndis_load_driver().
NOTE: the Texas Instruments ACX111 driver needs firmware. With my
card, there were 3 .bin files shipped with the driver. You must
either put these files in /compat/ndis or convert them with
ndiscvt -f and kldload them so the driver can use them. Without
the firmware image, the NIC won't work.
