changes, start on a new line. Insertion of a filename will keep the
diff limited to the block of filenames that have the same first letter
instead of creating a huge diff. While here, move remote.c after the
remote-*.c files and move tui.c after the tui-*.c files. This matches
the order of ls(1) and makes it easier to compare object files created
by a stock gdb(1) build with the list of files we have here.
This is a non-functional change only.
includes the latter, but also declares variables which are defined
in kern/subr_param.c).
Change som VM parameters from quad_t to unsigned long. They refer to
quantities (size limits for text, heap and stack segments) which must
necessarily be smaller than the size of the address space, so long is
adequate on all platforms.

sensitive, but less excercised location (the watchdog). While here use the
*_start_locked function directly to avoid drop, grab, drop lock.
I have to be very careful with future ALTQ patches!

The tunable vfs.devfs.fops controls this feature and defaults to off.
When enabled (vfs.devfs.fops=1 in loader), device vnodes opened
through a filedescriptor gets a special fops vector which instead
of the detour through the vnode layer goes directly to DEVFS.
Amongst other things this allows us to run Giant free read/write to
device drivers which have been weaned off D_NEEDGIANT.
Currently this means /dev/null, /dev/zero, disks, (and maybe the
random stuff ?)
On a 700MHz K7 machine this doubles the speed of
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1 count=1000000
This roughly translates to shaving 2usec of each read/write syscall.
The poll/kqfilter paths need more work before they are giant free,
this work is ongoing in p4::phk_bufwork
Please test this and report any problems, LORs etc.
Change the spelling of the "catch" option to be consistent with the new
options. Implement the "no wait" option. An implementation of the "CPU
private" for i386 will be committed at a later date.
This generates a KTR event for each critical section entered and exited.
It would be desirable to also log the filename and line number of the
source entering or exiting the critical section, but this requires
hacking up the critical section API, so I've not done that yet.
retain the pcbinfo lock until we're done using a pcb in the in-bound
path, as the pcbinfo lock acts as a pseuo-reference to prevent the pcb
from potentially being recycled. Clean up assertions and make sure to
assert that the pcbinfo is locked at the head of code subsections where
it is needed. Free the mbuf at the end of tcp_input after releasing
any held locks to reduce the time the locks are held.
