This paniced my one of my machines one time too many :-( and there is
no sign of a solution in the pipeline. The deltas are still easily
available in cvs. The problem is that if the parent has been swapped
out, the child process cannot grope around in the parent's UPAGES to
see the sigact[] array or it will fault. This probably is a showstopper
for this implementation anyway.
is the diagnostics register at offset 0x93. When bit 5 is set in this
register, bits 4-7 in ExCA register 0x5 being 0000 are required for
pci interrupt routing. When it is clear, then bit 4 of ExCA register
0x3 is used to enable it.
The only other issue is that when you route interrupts this way, you
must read ExCA register 0x4 in order to clear the interrupt, else you
get an interrupt storm.
Deal with this requirement by setting things up. It is believed that
this won't hurt other chipsets, but other chipsets may require their
own work arounds.
a temporary array to store struct buf pointers if the list doesn't
fit in a local array. Usually it frees the array when finished,
but if it jumps to the 'again' label and the new list does fit in
the local array then it can forget to free a previously malloc'd
M_TEMP memory.
Move the free() up a line so that it frees any previously allocated
memory whether or not it needs to malloc a new array.

I don't know if this is the consensus of doc@, or just a unilateral decision
of committer that corrected my following of this example. Maybe a docs
person could review these files and see if they still show current guidelines.
defined to 0 in the non-SMP case, which very much makes sense as it
permits its usage in per-CPU initialization loops (for an example, check
out subr_mbuf.c).
Further, on a UP system, make mb_alloc always use the first per-CPU
container, regardless of cpuid (i.e. remove reliability on cpuid in the
UP case).

asleep() and await() functions split the functionality of msleep() up into
two halves. Only the asleep() half (which is what puts the process on the
sleep queue) actually needs the lock usually passed to msleep() held to
prevent lost wakeups. await() does not need the lock held, so the lock
can be released prior to calling await() and does not need to be passed in
to the await() function. Typical usage of these functions would be as
follows:
mtx_lock(&foo_mtx);
... do stuff ...
asleep(&foo_cond, PRIxx, "foowt", hz);
...
mtx_unlock&foo_mtx);
...
await(-1, -1);

When encryption (MPPE) is enabled, WindowsME and Windows98 both
fail because of the extra byte, suggesting that they autheticated
successfully in their log and then dropping the connection, telling
the user that the peer doesn't support compatible encryption
options.

the first sector of the emulated floppy to contain a valid MS-DOS BPB that
it can modify. Since boot1 is the first sector of boot.flp, this resulted
in the BIOS overwriting part of boot1: specifically the function used to
read in sectors from the disk.

o This corrects anomolies in the behavior of
kern.security.unprivileged_procdebug_permitted when using truss and
ktrace. The theory goes that this is now safe to use.
