The whole problem seems to be size. Which is odd, because it is said
that size doesn't matter. Anyway... Add -Os to strategic places in the
makefile to have the final loader be as mall as possible. This seems
to be enough to make it work. For now... I think something is more
fundamentally wrong; or something more fundamental is wrong. Potato,

this script, without it sparc64 ISO building was consistently failing
because the /dev/md0 device name was not present when the commands
following mdconfig ran. Apparently there is the possibility of a delay
between when mdconfig finishes and the names become visible in /dev.
Yes, we could code this better than an unconditional call to "sleep 5"
but IMHO we should fix the underlying problem instead.

be manipulated by prison root. In 4.x prison root can not manipulate
system flags, regardless of the security level. This behavior
should remain consistent to avoid any surprises which could lead
to security problems for system administrators which give out
privileged access to jails.
This commit changes suser_cred's flag argument from SUSER_ALLOWJAIL
to 0. This will prevent prison root from being able to manipulate
system flags on files.
This may be a MFC candidate for RELENG_5.

The binutils 2.15 assembler now automaticly and non-optionally adds
the .eh_frame section for unwind information. This section appears
to wreck havoc to the final boot code. Fix this by using a special
linker script that discards the .eh_frame sections, but is otherwise
identical to the linker internal script used for -N.

security.jail.allow_raw_sockets sysctl MIB is set to 1) where privileged
access to jails is given out, it is possible for prison root to manipulate
various network parameters which effect the host environment. This commit
plugs a number of security holes associated with the use of raw sockets
and prisons.
This commit makes the following changes:
- Add a comment to rtioctl warning developers that if they add
any ioctl commands, they should use super-user checks where necessary,
as it is possible for PRISON root to make it this far in execution.
- Add super-user checks for the execution of the SIOCGETVIFCNT
and SIOCGETSGCNT IP multicast ioctl commands.
- Add a super-user check to rip_ctloutput(). If the calling cred
is PRISON root, make sure the socket option name is IP_HDRINCL,
otherwise deny the request.
Although this patch corrects a number of security problems associated
with raw sockets and prisons, the warning in jail(8) should still
apply, and by default we should keep the default value of
security.jail.allow_raw_sockets MIB to 0 (or disabled) until
we are certain that we have tracked down all the problems.
Looking forward, we will probably want to eliminate the
references to curthread.
This may be a MFC candidate for RELENG_5.

UDP/IP header, make sure that space is also allocated for the link
layer header. If an mbuf must be allocated to hold the UDP/IP header
(very likely), then this will avoid an additional mbuf allocation at
the link layer. This trick is also used by TCP and other protocols to
avoid extra calls to the mbuf allocator in the ethernet (and related)
output routines.
