with insufficient protection mode.
For the i386 and amd64, create the tunable, machdep.prot_fault_translation,
with the following behaviour:
0 = autodetect the signal to be delivered on KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE
from vm_fault based on the ELF OSABI note:
no note or __FreeBSD_version < 700004 - SIGBUS/BUS_PAGE_FAULT
note, and __FreeBSD_version >= 700004 - SIGSEGV/SEGV_ACCERR
1 = always SIGBUS/BUS_PAGE_FAULT
2 = always SIGSEGV/SEGV_ACCERR
This would do mostly automatic correction of ABI breakage, with the exception
of the untaged binaries for 7-CURRENT/RELENG_7 before the note is fixed. For
them, sysctl would allow to run the binary with manual settings.

binaries for the fixit floppy bin/ed/main.c causes a gcc warning
message about argc possibly being clobbered by longjmp or vfork.
We have threatened to ditch floppies for 8.0 but I don't want to
do quite that much rototilling yet so for now turn off -Werror while
building ed (and everything else) for the fixit floppy.
Thanks to jb for pointing out NO_WERROR.

- Print a warning if the version number recorded in the log is not what the
tool expects.
- Print a tidier error message when an unrecognized event is encountered
in the log.
- Don't print a spurious 'Unknown error: 0' when exiting after a parse
error.
The problem was, isc_atomic_cmpxchg() is almost like our
atomic_cmpset_32(), except it expects the old value to be
returned, whereas our atomic_cmpset_32 returns 1 on success,
or 0 on failure. So I re-implemented something suitable.

of the missing functionality from procfs(4) and new functionality for
monitoring and debugging specific processes. procstat(1) operates in
the following modes:
-b Display binary information for the process.
-c Display command line arguments for the process.
-f Display file descriptor information for the process.
-k Display the stacks of kernel threads in the process.
-s Display security credential information for the process.
-t Display thread information for the process.
-v Display virtual memory mappings for the process.
Further revision and modes are expected.

support its -k argument:
kern.proc.kstack - dump the kernel stack of a process, if debugging
is permitted.
This sysctl is present if either "options DDB" or "options STACK" is
compiled into the kernel. Having support for tracing the kernel
stacks of processes from user space makes it much easier to debug
(or understand) specific wmesg's while avoiding the need to enter
DDB in order to determine the path by which a process came to be
blocked on a particular wait channel or lock.
- Introduce per-architecture stack_machdep.c to hold stack_save(9).
- Introduce per-architecture machine/stack.h to capture any common
definitions required between db_trace.c and stack_machdep.c.
- Add new kernel option "options STACK"; we will build in stack(9) if it is
defined, or also if "options DDB" is defined to provide compatibility
with existing users of stack(9).
Add new stack_save_td(9) function, which allows the capture of a stacktrace
of another thread rather than the current thread, which the existing
stack_save(9) was limited to. It requires that the thread be neither
swapped out nor running, which is the responsibility of the consumer to
enforce.
Update stack(9) man page.
