These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,
such as:
1) no output from sysctl(8)
2) erroneously returning ENOMEM with tools like truss(1)
or uname(1)
truss: can not get etype: Cannot allocate memory
there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

current lock classes KPI it was really difficult because there was no
way to pass an rmtracker object to the lock/unlock routines. In order
to accomplish the task, modify the aforementioned functions so that
they can return (or pass as argument) an uinptr_t, which is in the rm
case used to hold a pointer to struct rm_priotracker for current
thread. As an added bonus, this fixes rm_sleep() in the rm shared
case, which right now can communicate priotracker structure between
lc_unlock()/lc_lock().

in the future in a backward compatible (API and ABI) way.
The cap_rights_t represents capability rights. We used to use one bit to
represent one right, but we are running out of spare bits. Currently the new
structure provides place for 114 rights (so 50 more than the previous
cap_rights_t), but it is possible to grow the structure to hold at least 285
rights, although we can make it even larger if 285 rights won't be enough.
The structure definition looks like this:
struct cap_rights {
uint64_t cr_rights[CAP_RIGHTS_VERSION + 2];
};
The initial CAP_RIGHTS_VERSION is 0.
The top two bits in the first element of the cr_rights[] array contain total
number of elements in the array - 2. This means if those two bits are equal to
0, we have 2 array elements.
The top two bits in all remaining array elements should be 0.
The next five bits in all array elements contain array index. Only one bit is
used and bit position in this five-bits range defines array index. This means
there can be at most five array elements in the future.
To define new right the CAPRIGHT() macro must be used. The macro takes two
arguments - an array index and a bit to set, eg.
#define CAP_PDKILL CAPRIGHT(1, 0x0000000000000800ULL)
We still support aliases that combine few rights, but the rights have to belong
to the same array element, eg:
#define CAP_LOOKUP CAPRIGHT(0, 0x0000000000000400ULL)
#define CAP_FCHMOD CAPRIGHT(0, 0x0000000000002000ULL)
#define CAP_FCHMODAT (CAP_FCHMOD | CAP_LOOKUP)
There is new API to manage the new cap_rights_t structure:
cap_rights_t *cap_rights_init(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
void cap_rights_set(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
void cap_rights_clear(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
bool cap_rights_is_set(const cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
bool cap_rights_is_valid(const cap_rights_t *rights);
void cap_rights_merge(cap_rights_t *dst, const cap_rights_t *src);
void cap_rights_remove(cap_rights_t *dst, const cap_rights_t *src);
bool cap_rights_contains(const cap_rights_t *big, const cap_rights_t *little);
Capability rights to the cap_rights_init(), cap_rights_set(),
cap_rights_clear() and cap_rights_is_set() functions are provided by
separating them with commas, eg:
cap_rights_t rights;
cap_rights_init(&rights, CAP_READ, CAP_WRITE, CAP_FSTAT);
There is no need to terminate the list of rights, as those functions are
actually macros that take care of the termination, eg:
#define cap_rights_set(rights, ...) \
__cap_rights_set((rights), __VA_ARGS__, 0ULL)
void __cap_rights_set(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
Thanks to using one bit as an array index we can assert in those functions that
there are no two rights belonging to different array elements provided
together. For example this is illegal and will be detected, because CAP_LOOKUP
belongs to element 0 and CAP_PDKILL to element 1:
cap_rights_init(&rights, CAP_LOOKUP | CAP_PDKILL);
Providing several rights that belongs to the same array's element this way is
correct, but is not advised. It should only be used for aliases definition.
This commit also breaks compatibility with some existing Capsicum system calls,
but I see no other way to do that. This should be fine as Capsicum is still
experimental and this change is not going to 9.x.

The SDM (June 2013) tables on these are rather confusing. Yes, they
assign the same name (BR_MISP_RETIRED.ALL_BRANCHES) to two codes
(C5H/00H and C5H/04H.) The latter however is the PEBS version.
So, to make it easier to see the difference - and yes, we can use
both without having to actually enable the PEBS specific bits! -
just rename the PEBS one to _PS so there's no clashing.
Tested:
* Sandy bridge
bridge Xeon.
Summary: These are PEBS events but they're also available as normal
counter/sample events. The source table (Table 19-2) lists the
base versions (LOAD, STLB_MISS, SPLIT, ALL) but it says they must
be qualified with other values. This particular commit fleshes
out those umask values.

kld_unload event handler which gets invoked after a linker file has been
successfully unloaded. The kld_unload and kld_load event handlers are now
invoked with the shared linker lock held, while kld_unload_try is invoked
with the lock exclusively held.
Convert hwpmc(4) to use these event handlers instead of having
kern_kldload() and kern_kldunload() invoke hwpmc(4) hooks whenever files are
loaded or unloaded. This has no functional effect, but simplifes the linker
code somewhat.

those of some non-architectural core events. This is not a problem in the
general case as long as there's an 1:1 mapping between the two, but there
are few exceptions. For example, 3CH_01H on Nehalem/Westmere represents
both unhalted-reference-cycles and CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.REF_P.
CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.REF_P on the aforementioned architectures does not measure
reference (i.e. bus) but TSC, so there's the need to disambiguate.
In order to avoid the namespace collision rename all the architectural
events in a way they cannot be ambigous and refactor the architectural
events handling function to reflect this change.
While here, per Jim Harris request, rename
iap_architectural_event_is_unsupported() to iap_event_is_architectural().
