Intel now provides comprehensive tables for all performance counters
and the various valid configuration permutations as text .json files.
Libpmc has been converted to use these and hwpmc_core has been greatly
simplified by moving to passthrough of the table values.
The one gotcha is that said tables don't support pentium pro and and pentium
IV. There's very few users of hwpmc on _amd64_ kernels on new hardware. It is
unlikely that anyone is doing low level optimization on 15 year old Intel
hardware. Nonetheless, if someone feels strongly enough to populate the
corresponding tables for p4 and ppro I will reinstate the files in to the
build.
Code for the K8 counters and !x86 architectures remains unchanged.
- move harvest mask check inline
- move harvest mask to frequently_read out of actively
modified cache line
- disable ether_input collection and describe its limitations
in NOTES
Typically entropy collection in ether_input was stirring zero
in to the entropy pool while at the same time greatly reducing
max pps. This indicates that perhaps we should more closely
scrutinize how much entropy we're getting from a given source
as well as what our actual entropy collection needs are for
seeding Yarrow.

This is a follow-up to r321483, which disabled -Wmacro-redefined for
some lib/msun tests.
If an application included both fenv.h and ieeefp.h, several macros such
as __fldcw(), __fldenv() were defined in both headers, with slightly
different arguments, leading to conflicts.
Fix this by putting all the common macros in the machine-specific
versions of ieeefp.h. Where needed, update the arguments in places
where the macros are invoked.
This also slightly reduces the differences between the amd64 and i386
versions of ieeefp.h.

- Calculate the number of segments based on the page size
- Add some comments on dma function so it's easier to read
- Only enable interrupts on the last dma segment
- If the segments size is the max transfer size, use the special size 0
for the controller.
- The max_data ivars is in block so calculate it properly.
* Make autoboot() a static function in stand/common/boot.c, so it does
not shadow local variables in gptboot.c and zfsboot.c.
* Remove -Winline from the Makefiles for gptboot, gptzfsboot and
zfsboot, as gcc will always fail to inline some functions, and there
is nothing we can do about it.
* For gcc <= 4.2.1, silence -Wuninitialized for isoboot, as it produces
a false positive warning.
* Remove deprecated and unnecessary -mcpu=i386 flag from stand/defs.mk,
as there is already a -march=i386 flag further in the file.

Note the real time did not change, but traffic to RAM was reduced (multiple
measurements performed with switching the implementation at runtime).
Since nobody else is using non-temporal for this and there is no apparent
benefit at least these days, don't use them either.
Side note is that pagecopy arguments should probably get reversed to not
have to flip them around in the primitive.

The new protocol from the kernel encodes things as a string table,

Rather than using fixed-length strings, pack them into a string table
to return. Also expand the buffer from ~300 charaters to 3k. This should
be enough, even for USB.
This fixes a problem where USB pnp info is truncated on return to
userland.

than doing weird type-punning that happened to work because the size
was right. We copied a zfs devdesc into a disk_devdesc and then after
passing through a NULL pointer reinterpreted it as a
zfs_devdesc. Instead, pass the base devdesc around and 'upcase' when
we know the types are right.
This has the happy side effect of fixing a gcc warning about bad
type punning.
