from both the acpi module build directory and a kernel build directory.
The latter didn't work when one attempted to build a kernel which had
"device acpi" with the "make kernel-toolchain buildkernel" command
because a cross-compiler couldn't find anything in the standard system
include path (it's empty in the kernel-toolchain case).
Fix this by passing a better root path to kernel headers (src/sys)
which works for both cases, kernel and module (-I@ only worked for
module).
Also, while here, pass -nostdinc (and a different spelling for icc) --
it's a feature that the kernel source tree is self-contained, and this
change enforces this.

bad under high load. For example with 40k sockets and 25k tcptw
entries, connect() syscall can run for seconds. Debugging showed
that it iterates the cycle millions times and purges thousands of
tcptw entries at a time.
Besides practical unusability this change is architecturally
wrong. First, in_pcblookup_local() is used in connect() and bind()
syscalls. No stale entries purging shouldn't be done here. Second,
it is a layering violation.
o Return back the tcptw purging cycle to tcp_timer_2msl_tw(),
that was removed in rev. 1.78 by rwatson. The commit log of this
revision tells nothing about the reason cycle was removed. Now
we need this cycle, since major cleaner of stale tcptw structures
is removed.

permanently idle" when calculating system-wide CPUs statistics. It is
incorrect, since it skews statistics quite a bit and creates real problems
for certain types of applications (monitoring applications for example),
by making them believe that the system does have enough idle CPU resources,
while in fact it does not.
Correct the problem by not calling performance counting routines on "disabled"

those cores completely, but ENOTIME here and it is not clear if the

mutex structure is added as following:
struct umutex {
__lwpid_t m_owner;
uint32_t m_flags;
uint32_t m_ceilings[2];
uint32_t m_spare[4];
};
The m_owner represents owner thread, it is a thread id, in non-contested
case, userland can simply use atomic_cmpset_int to lock the mutex, if the
mutex is contested, high order bit will be set, and userland should do locking
and unlocking via kernel syscall. Flag UMUTEX_PRIO_INHERIT represents
pthread's PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT mutex, which when contention happens, kernel
should do priority propagating. Flag UMUTEX_PRIO_PROTECT indicates it is
pthread's PTHREAD_PRIO_PROTECT mutex, userland should initialize m_owner
to contested state UMUTEX_CONTESTED, then atomic_cmpset_int will be failure
and kernel syscall should be invoked to do locking, this becauses
for such a mutex, kernel should always boost the thread's priority before
it can lock the mutex, m_ceilings is used by PTHREAD_PRIO_PROTECT mutex,
the first element is used to boost thread's priority when it locked the mutex,
second element is used when the mutex is unlocked, the PTHREAD_PRIO_PROTECT
mutex's link list is kept in userland, the m_ceiling[1] is managed by thread
library so kernel needn't allocate memory to keep the link list, when such
a mutex is unlocked, kernel reset m_owner to UMUTEX_CONTESTED.
Flag USYNC_PROCESS_SHARED indicate if the synchronization object is process
shared, if the flag is not set, it saves a vm_map_lookup() call.
The umtx chain is still used as a sleep queue, when a thread is blocked on
PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT mutex, a umtx_pi is allocated to support priority
propagating, it is dynamically allocated and reference count is used,
it is not optimized but works well in my tests, while the umtx chain has
its own locking protocol, the priority propagating protocol are all protected
by sched_lock because priority propagating function is called with sched_lock
held from scheduler.
No visible performance degradation is found which these changes. Some parameter
names in _umtx_op syscall are renamed.

WB (write-back) on x86 via control bits in PTEs and PDEs (including making
use of the PAT MSR). Changes include:
- A new pmap_mapdev_attr() function for amd64 and i386 which takes an
additional parameter (relative to pmap_mapdev()) specifying the cache
mode for this mapping. Note that on amd64 only WB mappings are done with
the direct map, all other modes result in a private mapping.
- pmap_mapdev() on i386 and amd64 now defaults to using UC (uncached)
mappings rather than WB. Previously we relied on the BIOS setting up
MTRR's to enforce memio regions being treated as UC. This might make
hw.cbb_start_memory unnecessary in some cases now for example.
- A new pmap_mapbios()/pmap_unmapbios() API has been added to allow places

o include current tx rate in stats so athstats gets a consistent
snapshot and doesn't have to make an extra ioctl
o record tx rate for raw frames

o change rssi to be signed in ieee80211_nodestats
o add noise floor in ieee80211_nodestats (use an implicit hole to
preserve layout); return it as zero until we can update the api's
so the driver can provide noise floor data
o add a bandaid so IEEE80211_IOC_STA_STATS works for sta mode; when
all nodes are in the station table this will no longer be needed
o fix braino in IEEE80211_IOC_STA_INFO implementation; was supposed
to take a mac address and return info for that sta or all stations
if ff:ff:ff:ff:ff was supplied--but somehow this didn't get implemented;
implement the intended semantics and leave a compat shim at the old
ioctl number for the previous api

o add some missing stats to the global stat structure
o move accounting work for data frame rx into ieee80211_deliver_data
o add per-sta stats for rx ucast/mcast frames
o set rcvif in ieee80211_deliver_data so callers don't need to

o PMBR partitions count to the number of partitions on the disk, which
means that if a PMBR entry is invalid we will not treat the MBR as a
PMBR by virtue of it not describing any partitions.
Previously the checks were inconsistent in that an invalid PMBR entry
would be harmless when no other partitions exist (we would treat the
MBR as a PMBR by virtue of it being empty), but it would be fatal when
there is at least one other partition.
o The partition size of a PMBR partition is one less than the media size
because the GPT starts at the second sector (LBA 1) and extends to
the end of the media. For backward bug-compatibility we accept a size
that's exactly the media size (FreeBSD bug).
Also, when the partition size can not be represented in a 32-bit
integral, the partition size in the MBR is to be set to 0xFFFFFFFF.
Accept this as a valid size, even if the size can be represented.

~120GB on pc98 boxes. They make great little network appliances.
I've been using these changes for the past year or so on my network
storage pc98 box :-).
of geometry. However, some platforms have a more complicated mapping
of the firmware values to the actual values. pc98 is the only
platform that currently does this. This mapping is necessary for
large disks connected to pc98 boxes, as the firmware labels require do
special hacks to the actual geometry for interoperability. We cannot
do this all in the geom layer because of initialization issues (geom
looks for an already initialized pc98 label, but we need the geometry
information prior to initialization, classic chicken and egg problem).
We pass the disk and the device_t to this function because the
geometry mapping depends on what kind of controller is used.
This hook allows platforms that want to override things to do so, and
has 0 overhead on all other platforms. These patches have been in use
locally for a long time, and received good feedback from the pc98
community and sos@ at various times during their development.
