The code provides information on how the signal was generated.
Formerly, the code was only logged for traps, much like only signal handlers
for traps received a meaningful si_code before FreeBSD 7.0.
In rare cases, no information is available and 0 is still logged.

details of each rman header, but not the contents of all rman structures
in the system. This is especially useful on platforms where some rmans
have many thousands of entries in rmans, making scrolling through the
output of "show all rman" impractical. Individual rmans can then be viewed
including their contents with "show rman 0xaddr" as usual.

for a detailed explanation of the problems).
The only difference with the previous fix is in Solution2:
CPUBLOCK is no longer set when exiting from callout_reset_*() functions,
which avoid the deadlock (leading to r217161).
There is no need to CPUBLOCK there because the running-and-migrating
assumption is strong enough to avoid problems there.
Furthermore add a better !SMP compliancy (leading to shrinked code and
structures) and facility macros/functions.

- implement delivery of signals with ancient stack frame layout and
corresponding sigreturn(2);
- implement old getpagesize(2);
- provide a user-mode trampoline and LDT call gate for lcall $7,$0;
- port a.out image activator and connect it to the build as a module

too much time. This can finish in a scheduler deadlock with ping-pong
between two threads.
One sample of this is:
- device lapic (to have a preemption point on critical_exit())
- options DEVICE_POLLING with HZ>1499 (to have lapic freq = hardclock freq)
- running a cpu intensive task (that does not enter the kernel)
- only one CPU on SMP or no SMP.

- Hold the proc lock while changing the state from PRS_NEW to PRS_NORMAL
in fork to honor the locking requirements. While here, expand the scope
of the PROC_LOCK() on the new process (p2) to avoid some LORs. Previously
the code was locking the new child process (p2) after it had locked the
parent process (p1). However, when locking two processes, the safe order
is to lock the child first, then the parent.
- Fix various places that were checking p_state against PRS_NEW without
having the process locked to use PROC_LOCK(). Every place was already
locking the process, just after the PRS_NEW check.
- Remove or reduce the use of PROC_SLOCK() for places that were checking
p_state against PRS_NEW. The PROC_LOCK() alone is sufficient for reading
the current state.
- Reorder fill_kinfo_proc() slightly so it only acquires PROC_SLOCK() once.

Also, express this new maximum as a fraction of the kernel's address
space size rather than a constant so that increasing KVA_PAGES will
automatically increase this maximum. As a side-effect of this change,
kern.maxvnodes will automatically increase by a proportional amount.
While I'm here ensure that this change doesn't result in an unintended
increase in maxpipekva on i386. Calculate maxpipekva based upon the
size of the kernel address space and the amount of physical memory
instead of the size of the kmem map. The memory backing pipes is not
allocated from the kmem map. It is allocated from its own submap of
the kernel map. In short, it has no real connection to the kmem map.
(In fact, the commit messages for the maxpipekva auto-sizing talk
about using the kernel map size, cf. r117325 and r117391, even though
the implementation actually used the kmem map size.) Although the
calculation is now done differently, the resulting value for
maxpipekva should remain almost the same on i386. However, on amd64,
the value will be reduced by 2/3. This is intentional. The recent
change to VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE on amd64 for the benefit of ZFS also had
the unnecessary side-effect of increasing maxpipekva. This change is
effectively restoring maxpipekva on amd64 to its prior value.
Eliminate init_param3() since it is no longer used.
