potentially trigger multiple pending interrupts for level-sensitive
interrupts. However, the event timer interrupt does need EOI before
being handled to avoid missing clock events.
These conflicting requirements are handled by having the XIV handler
inform the dispatch code whether or not it send EOI to the CPU. If not,
the dispatch code will do it. This allows handlers to send EOI before
doing potentially long-running activities, while still have a sensible
default behaviour.
o efi_md_find() - returns the md that covers the given address
o efi_md_last() - returns the last md in the list
o efi_md_prev() - returns the md that preceeds the given md.
we can find a way to get the information from petitboot or to guess it, so
the current algorithm is:
1. See if ps3disk3p1 (first GPT slice on OtherOS partition) exists, and if
so try to boot it.
2. Otherwise, netboot.

Allow changing the trampoline ABI with makeoptions, this will allow
us to have a trampoline with a different ABI from the kernel.
Useful in cases where we have to boot a 64 bit kernel from a
bootloader which supports only 32 bit or vice versa.

sources this tool collates are no longer available and the format of the
current database is directly usable by pciconf(8) without needing any special
processing.
Update to use the latest version of the PCI IDs Repository.
As discussed on -current@ in May, this brings in a new source of the database,
which is also used by other operating systems. Our previous sources no longer
exist and this database is actively maintained and more complete in general.
This includes a structural change regarding atomic ops. Previously they
were enabled on all platforms unless we had knowledge that they did not
work. However both work performed by marius@ on sparc64 and the fact that
the 9.8.x branch is fussier in this area has demonstrated that this is
not a safe approach. So I've modified a patch provided by marius to
enable them for i386, amd64, and ia64 only.
Isilon has the concept of an in-memory exit-code ring that saves the last exit
code of a function and allows for stack tracing. This is very helpful when
debugging tough issues.
This patch is essentially a no-op for BSD at this point, until we upstream
the dexitcode logic itself. The patch adds DEXITCODE calls to every NFS
function that returns an errno error code. A number of code paths were also
reorganized to have single exit paths, to reduce code duplication.

resource allocation on x86 platforms:
- Add a new helper API that Host-PCI bridge drivers can use to restrict
resource allocation requests to a set of address ranges for different
resource types.
- For the ACPI Host-PCI bridge driver, use Producer address range resources
in _CRS to enumerate valid address ranges for a given Host-PCI bridge.
This can be disabled by including "hostres" in the debug.acpi.disabled
tunable.
- For the MPTable Host-PCI bridge driver, use entries in the extended
MPTable to determine the valid address ranges for a given Host-PCI
bridge. This required adding code to parse extended table entries.
Similar to the new PCI-PCI bridge driver, these changes are only enabled
if the NEW_PCIB kernel option is enabled (which is enabled by default on
amd64 and i386).

Implement two previously-reserved Capsicum system calls:
- cap_new() creates a capability to wrap an existing file descriptor
- cap_getrights() queries the rights mask of a capability.

(typically fsck_ffs) to register that it wishes to use FFS specific
sysctl's to update the filesystem. This ensures that two checkers
cannot run on a given filesystem at the same time and that no other
process accidentally or maliciously uses the filesystem updating
sysctls inappropriately. This functionality is needed by the
journaling soft-updates recovery code.
Code to actually implement Capsicum capabilities, including fileops and
kern_capwrap(), which creates a capability to wrap an existing file
descriptor.
We also modify kern_close() and closef() to handle capabilities.
Finally, remove cap_filelist from struct capability, since we don't
actually need it.

As Garrett points out,
It is no more a debugging interface than setproctitle(3), and has not
been since the name started getting stuffed into the kernel. This
statement may have made sense when the name was only visible in thread
state dumps and the debugger.
