- Replace MIPS24K-specific code with more generic framework that will
make adding new CPU support easier
- Add MIPS24K support for new framework
- Limit backtrace depth to 1 for stability reasons and add option
HWPMC_MIPS_BACKTRACE to override this limitation
Sycall argument is pointer to array of register_t values. Casting it to
pointer to structure with fields of size smaller then register_t we rely
on compiler-dependent memory layout of structure.

The GPL infected parts which were blocking the inclusion of snd_csa
and snd_emu10kx in GENERIC have recently been removed from the tree.
I'm also adding snd_cmi to GENERIC, which I originally intended to
add when we enabled sound support by default.

several new kerberos related libraries and applications to FreeBSD:
o kgetcred(1) allows one to manually get a ticket for a particular service.
o kf(1) securily forwards ticket to another host through an authenticated
and encrypted stream.
o kcc(1) is an umbrella program around klist(1), kswitch(1), kgetcred(1)
and other user kerberos operations. klist and kswitch are just symlinks
to kcc(1) now.
o kswitch(1) allows you to easily switch between kerberos credentials if
you're running KCM.
o hxtool(1) is a certificate management tool to use with PKINIT.
o string2key(1) maps a password into key.
o kdigest(8) is a userland tool to access the KDC's digest interface.
o kimpersonate(8) creates a "fake" ticket for a service.
We also now install manpages for some lirbaries that were not installed
before, libheimntlm and libhx509.
- The new HEIMDAL version no longer supports Kerberos 4. All users are
recommended to switch to Kerberos 5.
- Weak ciphers are now disabled by default. To enable DES support (used
by telnet(8)), use "allow_weak_crypto" option in krb5.conf.
- libtelnet, pam_ksu and pam_krb5 are now compiled with error on warnings
disabled due to the function they use (krb5_get_err_text(3)) being
deprecated. I plan to work on this next.
- Heimdal's KDC now require sqlite to operate. We use the bundled version
and install it as libheimsqlite. If some other FreeBSD components will
require it in the future we can rename it to libbsdsqlite and use for these
components as well.
- This is not a latest Heimdal version, the new one was released while I was
working on the update. I will update it to 1.5.2 soon, as it fixes some
important bugs and security issues.
kernel.
When access restrictions are added to a page table entry, we flush the
corresponding virtual address mapping from the TLB. In contrast, when
access restrictions are removed from a page table entry, we do not
flush the virtual address mapping from the TLB. This is exactly as
recommended in AMD's documentation. In effect, when access
restrictions are removed from a page table entry, AMD's MMUs will
transparently refresh a stale TLB entry. In short, this saves us from
having to perform potentially costly TLB flushes. In contrast,
Intel's MMUs are allowed to generate a spurious page fault based upon
the stale TLB entry. Usually, such spurious page faults are handled
by vm_fault() without incident. However, when we are executing
no-fault sections of the kernel, we are not allowed to execute
vm_fault(). This change introduces special-case handling for spurious
page faults that occur in no-fault sections of the kernel.

along with functions, SYSCTLs and tunables that are not used with
ATA_CAM in #ifndef ATA_CAM, similar to the existing #ifdef'ed ATA_CAM
code for the other way around. This makes it easier to understand
which parts of ata(4) actually are used in the new world order and
to later on remove the !ATA_CAM bits. It also makes it obvious that
there is something fishy with the C-bus front-end as well as in the
ATP850 support, as these used ATA_LOCKING which is defunct in the
ATA_CAM case. When fixing the former, ATA_LOCKING probably needs to
be brought back in some form or other.

As of FreeBSD 8, this driver should not be used. Applications that use
posix_openpt(2) and openpty(3) use the pts(4) that is built into the
kernel unconditionally. If it turns out high profile depend on the
pty(4) module anyway, I'd rather get those fixed. So please report any
issues to me.
The pty(4) module is still available as a kernel module of course, so a
simple `kldload pty' can be used to run old-style pseudo-terminals.
no waiters, we still increase and decrease count in user mode without

longer serve any purpose. Prior to r157446, they served a purpose
because there was a fixed amount of kernel virtual address space
reserved for pv entries at boot time. However, since that change pv
entries are accessed through the direct map, and so there is no limit
imposed by a fixed amount of kernel virtual address space.
Fix a couple of nearby style issues.

Do not relocate twice an object which happens to be needed by loaded
binary (or dso) and some filtee opened due to symbol resolution when
relocating need objects. Record the state of the relocation
processing in Obj_Entry and short-circuit relocate_objects() if
current object already processed.
Do not call constructors for filtees loaded during the early
relocation processing before image is initialized enough to run
user-provided code. Filtees are loaded using dlopen_object(), which
normally performs relocation and initialization. If filtee is
lazy-loaded during the relocation of dso needed by the main object,
dlopen_object() runs too earlier, when most runtime services are not
yet ready.
Postpone the constructors call to the time when main binary and
depended libraries constructors are run, passing the new flag
RTLD_LO_EARLY to dlopen_object(). Symbol lookups callers inform
symlook_* functions about early stage of initialization with
SYMLOOK_EARLY. Pass flags through all functions participating in
object relocation.
Use the opportunity and fix flags argument to find_symdef() in
arch-specific reloc.c to use proper name SYMLOOK_IN_PLT instead of
true, which happen to have the same numeric value.
