3118b08dd6 svn revisions r269964 and r269963 seemed to have impaired small memory
footprint systems(32M/64M) and didn't leave enough free memory to load modules
when it was setting up page tables that for sizes that are never used on
these smallish boards.

Set kmem_zmax to PAGE_SIZE on these smaller systems (< 128M) to keep this
from happening. Verified on mips32 h/w.

c676f789a4 Compile fixes:
Remove duplicate "debug_ktr.mask" sysctl definition.
Remove now unused variable from "kern_ktr.c".
This fixes build of "ktr" which was broken by r267961.

Let the default value for "vm_kmem_size_scale" be zero. It is setup
after that the sysctl has been initialized from "getenv()" in the
"kmeminit()" function to equal the "VM_KMEM_SIZE_MAX" value, if
zero. On Sparc64 the "VM_KMEM_SIZE_MAX" macro is not a constant. This
fixes build of Sparc64 which was broken by r267961.

Add a special macro to dynamically create SYSCTL root nodes, because
root nodes have a special parent. This fixes build of existing OFED
module and CANBUS module for pc98 which was broken by r267961.

Add missing "sysctl.h" includes to get the needed sysctl header file
declarations. This is needed after r267961.

bd1ed65f0f Extend the meaning of the CTLFLAG_TUN flag to automatically check if
there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.

Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

6fcf6199a4 Rename global cnt to vm_cnt to avoid shadowing.
To reduce the diff struct pcu.cnt field was not renamed, so
PCPU_OP(cnt.field) is still used. pc_cnt and pcpu are also used in
kvm(3) and vmstat(8). The goal was to not affect externally used KPI.

7ee4e910ce - For kernel compiled only with KDTRACE_HOOKS and not any lock debugging
option, unbreak the lock tracing release semantic by embedding
  calls to LOCKSTAT_PROFILE_RELEASE_LOCK() direclty in the inlined
  version of the releasing functions for mutex, rwlock and sxlock.
  Failing to do so skips the lockstat_probe_func invokation for
  unlocking.
- As part of the LOCKSTAT support is inlined in mutex operation, for
  kernel compiled without lock debugging options, potentially every
  consumer must be compiled including opt_kdtrace.h.
  Fix this by moving KDTRACE_HOOKS into opt_global.h and remove the
  dependency by opt_kdtrace.h for all files, as now only KDTRACE_FRAMES
  is linked there and it is only used as a compile-time stub [0].

[0] immediately shows some new bug as DTRACE-derived support for debug
in sfxge is broken and it was never really tested.  As it was not
including correctly opt_kdtrace.h before it was never enabled so it
was kept broken for a while.  Fix this by using a protection stub,
leaving sfxge driver authors the responsibility for fixing it
appropriately [1].

6c60c88452 As of r257209, all architectures have defined VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE. In other
words, every architecture is now auto-sizing the kmem arena.  This revision
changes kmeminit() so that the definition of VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE becomes
mandatory and the definition of VM_KMEM_SIZE becomes optional.

Replace or eliminate all existing definitions of VM_KMEM_SIZE.  With
auto-sizing enabled, VM_KMEM_SIZE effectively became an alternate spelling
for VM_KMEM_SIZE_MIN on most architectures.  Use VM_KMEM_SIZE_MIN for
clarity.

Change kmeminit() so that the effect of defining VM_KMEM_SIZE is similar to
that of setting the tunable vm.kmem_size.  Whereas the macros
VM_KMEM_SIZE_{MAX,MIN,SCALE} have had the same effect as the tunables
vm.kmem_size_{max,min,scale}, the effects of VM_KMEM_SIZE and vm.kmem_size
have been distinct.  In particular, whereas VM_KMEM_SIZE was overridden by
VM_KMEM_SIZE_{MAX,MIN,SCALE} and vm.kmem_size_{max,min,scale}, vm.kmem_size
was not.  Remedy this inconsistency.  Now, VM_KMEM_SIZE can be used to set
the size of the kmem arena at compile-time without that value being
overridden by auto-sizing.

Update the nearby comments to reflect the kmem submap being replaced by the
kmem arena.  Stop duplicating the auto-sizing formula in every machine-
dependent vmparam.h and place it in kmeminit() where auto-sizing takes
place.

a42ef9b109 Fix a bug with memguard(9) on 32-bit architectures without a
VM_KMEM_MAX_SIZE.

The code was not taking into account the size of the kernel_map, which
the kmem_map is allocated from, so it could produce a sub-map size too
large to fit.  The simplest solution is to ignore VM_KMEM_MAX entirely
and base the memguard map's size off the kernel_map's size, since this
is always relevant and always smaller.

5013ab31bd - Change contigmalloc() to use the vm_paddr_t type instead of an unsigned
long for specifying a boundary constraint.
- Change bus_dma tags to use bus_addr_t instead of bus_size_t for boundary
  constraints.

These allow boundary constraints to be fully expressed for cases where
sizeof(bus_addr_t) != sizeof(bus_size_t).  Specifically, it allows a
driver to properly specify a 4GB boundary in a PAE kernel.

Note that this cannot be safely MFC'd without a lot of compat shims due
to KBI changes, so I do not intend to merge it.

c84b8f6e0c Modestly increase the maximum allowed size of the kmem map on i386.
Also, express this new maximum as a fraction of the kernel's address
space size rather than a constant so that increasing KVA_PAGES will
automatically increase this maximum.  As a side-effect of this change,
kern.maxvnodes will automatically increase by a proportional amount.

While I'm here ensure that this change doesn't result in an unintended
increase in maxpipekva on i386.  Calculate maxpipekva based upon the
size of the kernel address space and the amount of physical memory
instead of the size of the kmem map.  The memory backing pipes is not
allocated from the kmem map.  It is allocated from its own submap of
the kernel map.  In short, it has no real connection to the kmem map.
(In fact, the commit messages for the maxpipekva auto-sizing talk
about using the kernel map size, cf. r117325 and r117391, even though
the implementation actually used the kmem map size.)  Although the
calculation is now done differently, the resulting value for
maxpipekva should remain almost the same on i386.  However, on amd64,
the value will be reduced by 2/3.  This is intentional.  The recent
change to VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE on amd64 for the benefit of ZFS also had
the unnecessary side-effect of increasing maxpipekva.  This change is
effectively restoring maxpipekva on amd64 to its prior value.

Eliminate init_param3() since it is no longer used.

6857471cf3 Add MALLOC_DEBUG_MAXZONES debug malloc(9) option to use multiple uma
zones for each malloc bucket size.  The purpose is to isolate
different malloc types into hash classes, so that any buffer overruns
or use-after-free will usually only affect memory from malloc types in
that hash class.  This is purely a debugging tool; by varying the hash
function and tracking which hash class was corrupted, the intersection
of the hash classes from each instance will point to a single malloc
type that is being misused.  At this point inspection or memguard(9)
can be used to catch the offending code.
