constrained enough that 2MB is a large chunk. Use 64K for arches
other than amd64 and ia64, with special handling for sparc64 due to
differing hardware.
Also commit the comment changes to kmem_init_zero_region() that I
missed due to not saving the file. (Darn the unfamiliar development
environment).
Arch maintainers, please feel free to adjust ZERO_REGION_SIZE as you

- Fix various places that set rm_end incorrectly (to ~0 or ~0u instead of
~0ul).
- To preserve existing behavior, change rman_init() to set rm_start and
rm_end to allow managing the full range (0 to ~0ul) if they are not set by
the caller when rman_init() is called.

With the option SW_WATCHDOG on, these operations are doomed to let
watchdog fire, fi they take too long.
I implemented the stubs this way because I really want wdog_kern_*
KPI to not be dependant by SW_WATCHDOG being on (and really, the option
only enables watchdog activation in hardclock) and also avoid to
call them when not necessary (avoiding not-volountary watchdog
activations).

respective CAM drivers. If you are using ATA device names in /etc/fstab or
other places, make sure to update them respectively (adX -> adaY,
acdX -> cdY, afdX -> daY, astX -> saY, where 'Y's are the sequential

Introduce the AHB glue for Atheros embedded systems. Right now it's
hard-coded for the AR9130 chip whose support isn't yet in this HAL;
it'll be added in a subsequent commit.
Kernel configuration files now need both 'ath' and 'ath_pci' devices; both
modules need to be loaded for the ath device to work.
The compiler will truncate the 32-bit return value of mv_gpio_value_get()
to match the 8-bit return value of mv_gpio_in(). A conditional expression
is used to have mv_gpio_in() always return 0 or 1 instead.

Remove eventhandler(schedtail) code and change linux ABI to use newly added

While here replace explicit comparing of module sysentvec structure with the
newly created process sysentvec to detect the linux ABI.

sf buf allocation, use wakeup() instead of wakeup_one() to notify sf
buffer waiters about free buffer.
sf_buf_alloc() calls msleep(PCATCH) when SFB_CATCH flag was given,
and for simultaneous wakeup and signal delivery, msleep() returns
EINTR/ERESTART despite the thread was selected for wakeup_one(). As
result, we loose a wakeup, and some other waiter will not be woken up.

Correct the type of INT64_MIN, INT64_MAX and UINT64_MAX.

with macros such as (U)INT64_C, (U)INT64_MAX, etc. which assume (u)int64_t
has type (unsigned) long long.
The mode attribute was used because long long wasn't standardised until
C99. Nowadays compilers should support long long and use of the mode
attribute is discouraged according to GCC Internals documentation.
The type definition has to be marked with __extension__ to support
compilation with "-std=c89 -pedantic".

On some architectures UCHAR_MAX and USHRT_MAX had type unsigned int.
However, lacking integer suffixes for types smaller than int, their type
should correspond to that of an object of type unsigned char (or short)
when used in an expression with objects of type int. In that case unsigned
char (short) are promoted to int (i.e. signed) so the type of UCHAR_MAX and
USHRT_MAX should also be int.
Where MIN/MAX constants implicitly have the correct type the suffix has
been removed.
While here, correct some comments.
