as this only allows us to access file systems that EFI knows about.
With a loader that can only use EFI-supported file systems, we're
forced to put /boot on the EFI system partition. This is suboptimal
in the following ways:
1. With /boot a symlink to /efi/boot, mergemaster complains about
the mismatch and there's no quick solution.
2. The EFI loader can only boot a single version of FreeBSD. There's
no way to install multiple versions of FreeBSD and select one
at the loader prompt.
3. ZFS maintains /boot/zfs/zpool.cache and with /boot a symlink we
end up with the file on a MSDOS file system. ZFS does not have
proper handling of file systems that are under Giant.
Implement a disk device based on the block I/O protocol instead and
pull in file system code from libstand. The disk devices are really
the partitions that EFI knows about.
This change is backward compatible.

was changed from a small page boundary to a large page boundary. As
a consequence pmap_kmem_choose() became a pointless waste of address
space. Eliminate it.
by keeping it opened after the first open and closing it via the
cleanup handler when NETIF_OPEN_CLOSE_ONCE is defined in order to
avoid the open-close-dance on every file access which with firmware
that for example performs an auto-negotiation on every open causes
netbooting to take horribly long. Basically the behavior with this
knob enabled resembles the one employed between r60506 and r177108
(and for sparc64 also again since r182919) with the addition that
the network device now is closed eventually before entering the
kernel and before rebooting. Actually I think this should be the
desired MI behavior, however the U-Boot loader actually requires
net_close() to be called after every transaction in order for some
local shutdown operations to be performed (and which I think thus
will break on concurrent opens, i.e. when netdev_opens is > 1, like
the loader does at least for disks when LOADER_GZIP_SUPPORT is
enabled).
- Use NETIF_OPEN_CLOSE_ONCE to replace the hack, which artificially
increased netdev_opens for sparc64 in order to keep the network
device opened forever, as at least some firmware versions require
the network device to be closed eventually before entering the
kernel or otherwise will DMA received packets to stale memory.
The powerpc OFW loader probably wants NETIF_OPEN_CLOSE_ONCE to be
set as well for the same reasons.
Copy the support files for the Octeon 1 CPU from sys/mips/octeon1 on
the projects/mips side to sys/mips/cavium on the head side to conform
to the other vendor code. This code was contributed by Cavium to the
project and forward ported by Warner Losh, with some additional code
from Randal Stewart.
# I'll fix the building problems the move creates in a future commit.
Copy over the support files (except sys/conf and sys/mips/conf) for
RMI XLR processor support. This port has been contributed by RMI and
brought up to date by Randal Stewart (rrs@). This port is a work in
progress, and there might still be significant changes. The port
makes it to multi-user, but is still early beta.
Merge support files for the Atheros AR71xx (and soon AR9xxx)
processors, except files from sys/conf and sys/mips/conf. This work
was done primarily by Olecksandr Tymoshenko and works on the
RouterStation and RouterStation PRO. Other AR71xx-based boards have
been reported as working as well (RouterBoard, for example).
Copy the files for the sibyte support (except files in sys/conf and
sys/mips/conf). This targets the Broadcom SWARM board (bcm91250) and
the SB-1 core in the BCM1250 SoC. This work was done by Neel Natu.

the commit message for r201896 actually should have read:
As nfsm_srvmtofh_xx() assumes the 4-byte alignment required by XDR
ensure the mbuf data is aligned accordingly by calling nfs_realign()
in fha_extract_info(). This fix is orthogonal to the problem solved
by r199274/r199284.

code as indicator that LDT segment register shall be loaded with
GUSERLDT segment instead of 0, so context switch at the wrong time may
cause attempt to load non-populated descriptor.
Use store with the barrier to prevent other CPUs from seeing updated
