DPCPU_DEFINE and VNET_DEFINE macros, as these cause problems for various
people working on the affected files. A better long-term solution is
still being considered. This reversal may give some modules empty
set_pcpu or set_vnet sections, but these are harmless.

Instead of unconditionally emitting .globl's for the __start_set_xxx and
__stop_set_xxx symbols, only emit them when the set_vnet or set_pcpu
sections are actually defined.

thread specific informations.
In order to do that, and in order to avoid KBI breakage with existing
infrastructure the following semantic is implemented:
- For live programs, a new member to the PT_LWPINFO is added (pl_tdname)
- For cores, a new ELF note is added (NT_THRMISC) that can be used for
storing thread specific, miscellaneous, informations. Right now it is
just popluated with a thread name.
GDB, then, retrieves the correct informations from the corefile via the
BFD interface, as it groks the ELF notes and create appropriate
pseudo-sections.

more than 1s earlier. Prior to this commit, the computation of
th_scale * delta (which produces a 64-bit value equal to the time since
the last tc_windup call in units of 2^(-64) seconds) would overflow and
any complete seconds would be lost.
We fix this by repeatedly converting tc_frequency units of timecounter
to one seconds; this is not exactly correct, since it loses the NTP
adjustment, but if we find ourselves going more than 1s at a time between
clock interrupts, losing a few seconds worth of NTP adjustments is the
least of our problems...
on FreeBSD (amd64), invocations of "javac" (or "java") eventually
end with the output of "Killed" and exit code 137.
This is caused by:
1. After calling exec() in multithreaded linux program threads are not
destroyed and continue running. They get killed after program being
executed finishes.
2. linux_exit_group doesn't return correct exit code when called not
from group leader. Which happens regularly using sun jvm.
The submitters fix this in a similar way to how NetBSD handles this.
I took the PRs away from dchagin, who seems to be out of touch of
this since a while (no response from him).
The patches committed here are from [2], with some little modifications
from me to the style.

This way, when there is a dependency between two modules, the handler of the
latter probed runs first.
This is a similar approach as the modules are unloaded in the same
linkerfile.

Change the last argument of gets() to indicate a visibility flag and add
definitions for the numerical constants. Except for the value 2, gets()
will behave exactly the same, so existing consumers shouldn't break. We
only use it in two places, though.

you tag a socket with an uint32_t value. The cookie can then be
used by the kernel for various purposes, e.g. setting the skipto
rule or pipe number in ipfw (this is the reason SO_USER_COOKIE has
been implemented; however there is nothing ipfw-specific in its
implementation).
The ipfw-related code that uses the optopn will be committed separately.
This change adds a field to 'struct socket', but the struct is not
part of any driver or userland-visible ABI so the change should be
harmless.

contents of the ones that were not empty were stale and unused.
- Now that <machine/mutex.h> no longer exists, there is no need to allow it
to override various helper macros in <sys/mutex.h>.
- Rename various helper macros for low-level operations on mutexes to live
in the _mtx_* or __mtx_* namespaces. While here, change the names to more
closely match the real API functions they are backing.
- Drop support for including <sys/mutex.h> in assembly source files.

existing code caused problems with some SCSI controllers.
A new sysctl kern.cam.ada.spindown_shutdown has been added that controls
whether or not to spin-down disks when shutting down.
Spinning down the disks unloads/parks the heads - this is
much better than removing power when the disk is still
spinning because otherwise an Emergency Unload occurs which may cause damage
to the actuator.

may be left. This fixes a memory leak that can occur when tracing is
disabled on a process via disabling tracing of a specific file (or if
an I/O error occurs with the tracefile) if the process's next system
call is exit(). The trace disabling code clears p_traceflag, so exit1()
doesn't do any KTRACE-related cleanup leading to the leak. I chose to
make the free'ing of pending records synchronous rather than patching
exit1().
- Move KTRACE-specific logic out of kern_(exec|exit|fork).c and into
kern_ktrace.c instead. Make ktrace_mtx private to kern_ktrace.c as a
result.
