- Store the symbol table contents in an anonymous swap-backed object. Have
mmap(/dev/ksyms) map that object, and stop mapping the symbol table into
the calling process in ksyms_open(). Previously we would cache a pointer
to the pmap of the opening process, and mmap(/dev/ksyms) would create a
mapping using the physical address found by a pmap lookup at the initial
mapping address. However, this assumes that the cached pmap is valid,
which may not be the case. [1]
- Remove the ksyms ioctl interface. It appears to have been added to work
around a limitation in libelf that no longer exists; see r321842.
Moreover, the interface is difficult to support and isn't present in
illumos. Since ksyms was added specifically to support lockstat(1), it
is expected that this removal won't have any real impact.
- Simplify ksyms_read() to avoid unnecessary copying.
- Don't call the device handle destructor if we fail to capture a snapshot
of the kernel's symbol table. devfs will do that for us.

"br" or "bridge" where - according to the terminology outlined in
comments of bridge.h and mmcbr_if.m around since their addition in
r163516 - the bus is meant and used instead. Some of these instances
are also rather old, while those in e. g. mmc_subr.c are as new as
r315430 and were caused by choosing mmc_wait_for_request(), i. e. the
one pre-r315430 outliner existing in mmc.c, as template for function
parameters in mmc_subr.c inadvertently. This correction translates to
renaming "brdev" to "busdev" and "mmcbr" to "mmcbus" respectively as
appropriate.
While at it, also rename "reqdev" to just "dev" in mmc_subr.[c,h]

Note that the HDMI init code was writing into the wrong register before
this change. Apparently whatever it wrote to was harmless, and apparently
HDMI was working because uboot had set up the right bits.

Similar to r321899, reduce sv_maxuser by one page inside of CloudABI.
This ensures that the stack, the vDSO and any allocations cannot touch
the top page of user virtual memory.
Considering that CloudABI userspace is completely oblivious to virtual
memory layout, don't bother making this conditional based on the CPU of

The variable holding the signal number to send is left uninitialized,
which sometimes triggers invalid signal checks.
For NMI, a return to usermode without ast processing is done. On the
other hand, for spurious dtrace probe interrupt it is usermode which
triggered the interrupt, so handle it through userret() as any other

from the top of user memory to one page lower on machines with the
Ryzen (AMD Family 17h) CPU. This pushes ps_strings and the stack
down by one page as well. On Ryzen there is some sort of interaction
between code running at the top of user memory address space and
interrupts that can cause FreeBSD to either hang or silently reset.
This sounds similar to the problem found with DragonFly BSD that
was fixed with this commit:
https://gitweb.dragonflybsd.org/dragonfly.git/commitdiff/b48dd28447fc8ef62fbc963accd301557fd9ac20
but our signal trampoline location was already lower than the address
that DragonFly moved their signal trampoline to. It also does not
appear to be related to SMT as described here:
https://www.phoronix.com/forums/forum/hardware/processors-memory/955368-some-ryzen-linux-users-are-facing-issues-with-heavy-compilation-loads?p=955498#post955498
"Hi, Matt Dillon here. Yes, I did find what I believe to be a
hardware issue with Ryzen related to concurrent operations. In a
nutshell, for any given hyperthread pair, if one hyperthread is
in a cpu-bound loop of any kind (can be in user mode), and the
other hyperthread is returning from an interrupt via IRETQ, the
hyperthread issuing the IRETQ can stall indefinitely until the
other hyperthread with the cpu-bound loop pauses (aka HLT until
next interrupt). After this situation occurs, the system appears
to destabilize. The situation does not occur if the cpu-bound
loop is on a different core than the core doing the IRETQ. The
%rip the IRETQ returns to (e.g. userland %rip address) matters a
*LOT*. The problem occurs more often with high %rip addresses
such as near the top of the user stack, which is where DragonFly's
signal trampoline traditionally resides. So a user program taking
a signal on one thread while another thread is cpu-bound can cause
this behavior. Changing the location of the signal trampoline
makes it more difficult to reproduce the problem. I have not
been because the able to completely mitigate it. When a cpu-thread
stalls in this manner it appears to stall INSIDE the microcode
for IRETQ. It doesn't make it to the return pc, and the cpu thread
cannot take any IPIs or other hardware interrupts while in this
state."
since the system instability has been observed on FreeBSD with SMT
disabled. Interrupts to appear to play a factor since running a
signal-intensive process on the first CPU core, which handles most
of the interrupts on my machine, is far more likely to trigger the
problem than running such a process on any other core.
Also lower sv_maxuser to prevent a malicious user from using mmap()
to load and execute code in the top page of user memory that was made
available when the shared page was moved down.
Make the same changes to the 64-bit Linux emulator.

- Makefile.inc1: Must prepend the CCACHE_WRAPPER_PATH into BPATH as it
overrides the PATH set in bsd.compiler.mk in sub-makes. The PATH
set in bsd.compiler.mk is not exported and doing so would cause it to
then override the BPATH set from environment. The only sane solution
is to prepend into BPATH as needed.
CCACHE_PATH could possibly be used for some of this as well.
