are places where the "main thread" of the booting kernel (either the
thread which later becomes swapper or the thread which later becomes
init) has to stop and wait for action to take place in another thread
before continuing.
There are currently three such holds:
1. The intr_config_hooks SYSINIT waits for hooks registered via the
config_intrhook_establish function; this allows (typically) devices
which need interrupts enabled to complete their initialization to do
so before root is mounted.
2. The g_waitidle function waits for the GEOM event queue to be empty;
this ensures that all of the disks which have been attached have been
tasted before we attempt to mount root.
3. The vfs_mountroot_wait function (in addition to calling g_waitidle)
waits for holds registered via root_mount_hold; among other things, this
is used by the USB subsystem to ensure that we don't fail to mount root
if it's located on a USB disk which takes a while to probe.
METHOD and STATICMETHOD declarations; that code will be inserted
into the dispatch function before and after the method call.
Use this functionality and the TSLOG framework to record DEVICE_ATTACH
and DEVICE_PROBE entry/exit timestamps.
independent functions with important roles in the early boot process:
mi_startup (with the "exit" recorded when it becomes swapper),
start_init (with the "exit" recorded when the thread is about to
"return" into the newly created init process), vfs_mountroot, and
vfs_mountroot_wait.
The entry must be logged "manually" using TSRAW rather than TSENTER
since PCPU data structures have not yet been initialized and thus
curthread cannot be accessed; &thread0 is what will become curthread
later in hammer_time.
Other MD initialization code should be similarly instrumented in order
to gain visibility into the time spent before entering mi_startup; this
will require some care and testing from people with access to such
hardware.
These are intended for debugging purposes and should not be added to
"generic" kernel configurations since they result in a nontrivial amount
of memory being set aside for this purpose, can break if kernel modules are
unloaded, and can potentially leak a dangerous amount of information about
timestamps used as a source of kernel entropy.
This is a very primitive system, intended for use in measuring performance
during the early system boot, before more sophisticated tools like DTrace
or infrastructure like kernel memory allocation and mutexes are available.
Because this code records pointers to strings rather than copying strings
(in order to keep the memory usage more manageable), if a kernel module is
unloaded after logging an event, Bad Things can happen. Users are advised
to not do that.
Since cycle counts from the early kernel boot are used as an initial entropy
source, publishing this information to userland could result in inadequate
entropy being kept private to the kernel RNG. Users are advised to not
enable this on systems with untrusted users.

swp_pager_meta_ctl(), with no opportunity to recognize freeing of
consecutive blocks and free fewer block ranges. To open that opportunity,
this change removes the SWM_FREE option from swp_pager_meta_ctl(), and
compels the caller to do the freeing when a valid block address is returned.
In swap_pager_copy(), these frees are aggregated, so that a sequence of them
can be done at one time.
The only other caller to swp_pager_meta_ctl() that passed SWM_FREE,
swp_pager_unswapped(), is also modified to handle its single free
explicitly.

In both rw and sx locks we always go to sleep if the lock owner is not
running.
We do spin for some time if the lock is read-locked.
However, if we decide to go to sleep due to the lock owner being off cpu
and after sleepq/turnstile gets acquired the lock is read-locked, we should
fallback to the aforementioned wait.
Since this function is effectively slow path, if we get here the lock is most
likely already taken in which case it is cheaper to not blindly attempt the
atomic op.
While here move hwpmc probe out of the loop to match other primitives.

The license merging in r109471 didn't take into account that licensing
could change. Just removing the 3rd clause obviates the copyright
assignment to the NetBSD Foundation.
We do have plenty of files that have two or more licensing as in this
case, so fix this properly by splitting back the licenses as they are
upstream.
Obtained from: NetBSD
Part of this file originated in NetBSD, with the original file
carrying two versions of 4-clause BSD licenses. r109471 attempted to
simplify the situation by putting both licenses together.
Meanwhile, NetBSD dropped Clauses 3 and 4 from their own license, and
eventually NetBSD got permission from the University of Utah to drop the
3rd clause.
Keep the license "simple" by dropping the third clause since both TNF,
Utah/Berkeley and phk agree in principle that it can be dropped.

- Classify 802.11 frame in a proper way (extract ether_type from LLC header

files that can use the default value.
It used to be required that the low-order bits of KERNVIRTADDR matched
the low-order bits of the physical load address for all arm platforms.
That hasn't been a requirement for armv6 platforms since FreeBSD 10.
There is no longer any relationship between load addr and KERNVIRTADDR
except that both must be aligned to a 2 MiB boundary.
This change makes the default KERNVIRTADDR value 0xc0000000, and removes the
options from all the platforms that can use the default value. The default
is now defined in vmparam.h, and that file is now included in a few new
places that reference KERNVIRTADDR, since it may not come in via the
forced-include of opt_global.h on the compile command line.

following pieces:
- Making the first instruction a valid kernel entry point, since kexec
ignores the ELF entry value. This requires a separate section and linker
magic to prevent the linker from filling the beginning of the section
with stubs.
- Adding an entry point at 0x60 past the first instruction for systems
