in kern_gzio.c. The old gzio interface was somewhat inflexible and has not
worked properly since r272535: currently, the gzio functions are called with
a range lock held on the output vnode, but kern_gzio.c does not pass the
IO_RANGELOCKED flag to vn_rdwr() calls, resulting in deadlock when vn_rdwr()
attempts to reacquire the range lock. Moreover, the new gzio interface can
be used to implement kernel core compression.
This change also modifies the kernel configuration options needed to enable
userland core dump compression support: gzio is now an option rather than a
device, and the COMPRESS_USER_CORES option is removed. Core dump compression
is enabled using the kern.compress_user_cores sysctl/tunable.

Change umtx_lock to be the sleepable mutex. For the reason above, the

The values can only be set at jail creation time, to eliminate the need

The overridden values are inherited by nested jails (unless the config for

2) The migration code had a bug in it where when migrating, if
a two calls to callout_reset came in and they both collided with
the callout on the wheel about to run, then the second call to

similar to 'struct ifreq'.
- The ioctls identify the device to operate on via a string. This
string can either by the device's name, or it can be a bus-specific
address. (For unattached devices, a bus address is the only way to
locate a device.) Bus drivers register an eventhandler to claim
unrecognized device names that the driver recognizes as a valid address.
Two buses currently support addresses: ACPI recognizes any device
in the ACPI namespace via its full path starting with "\" and
the PCI bus driver recognizes an address specification of
'pci[<domain>:]<bus>:<slot>:<func>' (identical to the PCI selector
strings supported by pciconf).
- To make it easier to cut and paste, change the PnP location string
in the PCI bus driver to output a full PCI selector string rather
than 'slot=<slot> function=<func>'.
- Add a devctl(3) interface in libdevctl which provides a wrapper around

and a "td_slpmutex" has been added to "struct thread" to atomically
teardown the "td_slpcallout". Further the "TDF_TIMOFAIL" and
"SWT_SLEEPQTIMO" states can now be completely removed. Currently

- As we anticipate embedding mbufs headers within variable-size regions of
memory in the future, change the definitions of byte arrays embedded in
mbufs to be of size [0] rather than [MLEN] and [MHLEN]. In fact, the
cxgbe driver already uses 'struct mbuf' on the front of other storage
sizes, but we would like the global mbuf allocator do be able to do this
as well.
- Fold 'struct m_hdr' into 'struct mbuf' itself, eliminating a set of
macros that aliased 'mh_foo' field names to 'm_foo' names such as
'm_next'. These present a particular problem as we would like to add
new mbuf-header fields -- e.g., 'm_size' -- that, if similarly named via
macros, would introduce collisions with many other variable names in the
kernel.
- Rename 'struct m_ext' to 'struct struct_m_ext' so that we can add
compile-time assertions without bumping into the still-extant 'm_ext'
macro.
- Remove the MSIZE compile-time assertion for 'struct mbuf', but add new
assertions for alignment of embedded data arrays (64-bit alignment even
on 32-bit platforms), and for the sizes the mbuf header, packet header,
and m_ext structure.
- Document that these assertions exist in comments in mbuf.h.
