For benchmarking purposes SO_BINTIME is preferable to SO_TIMEVAL
since it has higher resolution and lower overhead. Simultaneous
use of the two options is possible and they will return consistent
timestamps.
This introduces an extra test and a function call for SO_TIMEVAL, but I have
not been able to measure that.

interrupt handler so that no locks are needed, and schedules the
command completion routine with a taskqueue_fast. This also corrects the
locking in the command thread and removes the need for operation flags.
Simple load tests show that this is now considerably faster than FreeBSD 4.x
in the SMP case when multiple i/o tasks are running.
"scheduler" here has very little to do with scheduling. It is actually
the swapper, and it really must be the last SYSINIT'ed item like its
comment says, since proc0 metamorphoses into swapper by calling
scheduler() last in mi_start(), and scheduler() never returns.. Rev.1.29
of subr_4bsd.c broke this by adding another SI_ORDER_FIRST item
(kproc_start() for schedcpu_thread() onto the SI_SUB_RUN_SCHEDULER_LIST.
The sorting of SYSINITs with identical orders (at all levels) is
apparently nondeterministic, so this resulted in schedule() sometimes
being called second last and schedcpu_thread() not being called at all.
This quick fix just changes the code to almost match the comment
(SI_ORDER_FIRST -> SI_ORDER_ANY). "LAST" is misspelled "ANY", and
there is no way to ensure that there is only 1 very lst SYSINIT.
A more complete fix would remove the SYSINIT obfuscation.

- witness_lock() is split into two pieces: witness_checkorder() and
witness_lock(). Witness_checkorder() determines if acquiring a specified
lock at the time it is called would result in a lock order. It
optionally adds a new lock order relationship as well. witness_lock()
updates witness's data structures to assume that a lock has been acquired
by stick a new lock instance in the appropriate lock instance list.
- The mutex and sx lock functions now call checkorder() prior to trying to
acquire a lock and continue to call witness_lock() after the acquire is
completed. This will let witness catch a deadlock before it happens
rather than trying to do so after the threads have deadlocked (i.e. never
actually report it).
- A new function witness_defineorder() has been added that adds a lock
order between two locks at runtime without having to acquire the locks.
If the lock order cannot be added it will return an error. This function
is available to programmers via the WITNESS_DEFINEORDER() macro which
accepts either two mutexes or two sx locks as its arguments.
- A few simple wrapper macros were added to allow developers to call
witness_checkorder() anywhere as a way of enforcing locking assertions
in code that might acquire a certain lock in some situations. The
macros are: witness_check_{mutex,shared_sx,exclusive_sx} and take an
appropriate lock as the sole argument.
- The code to remove a lock instance from a lock list in witness_unlock()
was unnested by using a goto to vastly improve the readability of this
function.

Change chn_setblocksize() buffer reallocation code to attempt to avoid

Danger! %s bufsoft size increasing from %d to %d after CHANNEL_SETBLOCKSIZE()
if our best attempts fail. If feed_vchan16() were to be called by
the interrupt handler while locks are dropped in chn_setblocksize()
to increase the size bufsoft to match the size of bufhard, the panic()
code in feed_vchan16() will be triggered. If the diagnostic message
is printed, it is a warning that a panic is possible if the system
were to see events in an "unlucky" order.
Change the locking code to avoid the need for MTX_RECURSIVE mutexes.
Add the MTX_DUPOK option to the channel mutexes and change the locking

Clean up the locking code in dsp_ioctl().
Allocate the channel buffers using the malloc() M_WAITOK option instead

Abuse layering by adding a pointer to the snd_dbuf structure that points

the proc lock only if we actually need to perform a stop. This
avoids two locks and unlocks of the process lock each system call,
and wins me about 20% on a simply system call test (getuid(),
which would otherwise require no locking). This also has a net
improvement of about 10MB/s on some of the SMP bandwidth tests
I'm running.

- malloc() returns a void* and does not need a cast
- when called with M_WAITOK, malloc() can not return NULL so don't
check for that case. The result of the check was bogus anyway since
it would leave the interface broken.

kbd_attach() is called kbd[0-9]+, with a different unit number. This
makes it impossible to write a devd rule which will automatically
switch to a USB keyboard when one is attached, because there is no way
to guess the correct device node to pass to kbdcontrol.
Therefore, change kbd_attach() to create a device node using the
keyboard device's real name (atkbd0, ukbd0...), and create the
kbd[0-9]+ node as an alias for backward compatibility.

interrupts and a hang at boot time with no error message.
- Read the SCI out of the FADT instead of hardcoding 9 when checking to see
if an interrupt override entry is for the SCI.
- Try to work around some BIOS brain damage for the SCI's programming by
forcing the SCI to be level triggered and active low if it is routed
to a non-ISA interrupt (greater than 15) or if it is identity mapped with
edge trigger and active high polarity. This should fix some of the hangs
with device apic and ACPI that some people see.
