BTX (and thus boot2):
- Don't bother saving %eax, %ebx, or %ecx as it is not necessary.
- Use a more compact sequence to load the base value out of a GDT entry
by loading the contiguous low 24 bits into the upper 24 bits of %eax,
loading the high 8 bits into %al, and using a ror to rotate the bits
(2 mov's and a ror) rather than loading the pieces in smaller chunks
(3 mov's and a shl).
- Use movzwl + leal instead of movl + movw + shll + addl.
- Use 'xchgl %eax,%foo' rather than 'movl %eax,%foo' for cases where
it's ok to trash %eax. xchgl %eax, foo is a 1-byte opcode whereas the
mov is a 2-byte opcode.
- Use movzwl rather than xorl + movw.

of its internal state to ignore the failed send and try again a bit later.
If the error is EPERM the packet got blocked by the local firewall and the
revert may cause the session to get stuck and retry indefinitely. This way
we treat it like a packet loss and let the retransmit timer and timeouts
do their work over time.
The correct behavior is to drop a connection that gets an EPERM error.
However this _may_ introduce some POLA problems and a two commit approach
was chosen.

1) sys/dev/sound/pcm/sound.h

* Be more specific: SD_F_SOFTVOL -> SD_F_SOFTPCMVOL
2) sys/dev/sound/pcm/mixer.[ch]
* Implement
mix_setparentchild()
mix_setrealdev()
mix_getparent()
mix_getchild()
The purpose of these functions is implement relative volume
adjustment, such as to tie two or more mixer device into a
single logical device. Usefull for the upcoming HDA driver
and few AC97 codec (such as AD1981B) where the master volume
"vol" need to be implemented using this logical manner.
3) sys/dev/sound/pcm/ac97_patch.[ch]
* Patch for AD1981B codec to enable (automuting) headphone jack sense.
4) sys/dev/sound/pcm/ac97.c
* Implement proper logical master volume for AD9181B codec
through various mix_set{parentchild,realdev}(). Tie both
"ogain" (headphone volume) and "phone" (speaker/lineout) to
a logical "vol".
5) sys/dev/sound/pcm/usb/uaudio_pcm.c
* ditto, for "vol" -> { "pcm" }.

the MROUTER is running, the system would panic as described in the PR.
The fix in the PR is a good start, however, the other state associated
with the multicast forwarding cache has to be freed in order to avoid
leaking memory and other possible panics.
More care and attention is needed in this area.

succession.
The concept of this fix is borrowed from KAME. Detailed information about

ioctls passing integer arguments should use the _IOWINT() macro.
This fixes a lot of ioctl's not working on sparc64, most notable
being keyboard/syscons ioctls.
Full ABI compatibility is provided, with the bonus of fixing the
handling of old ioctls on sparc64.

this for 'initiator id'- this is a stopgap until a sparse map is
added.
Make compat defines for offset format (FreeBSD 5 or less).
Add no-asyncio flag. There's some breakage with ASYNC I/O that every
now and then drops us into an infinite loop. This also then does
a fallback to no-asyncio if the AIO option isn't loaded/compiled into
the kernel.
A number of other chanes to try and track some breakage.
- Change variable name to 'error', as this is what is mostly used for
functions that return an error.
- Add mutex(9) to the SEE ALSO section.
- Bump the date.
I don't really like the example code. I'd prefer symmetry where possible, eg.
mtx_lock(&example_lock);
error = example(NULL, EXAMPLE_ONE);
mtx_unlock(&example_lock);
if (error != 0)
return (error);
But I'll leave it as it is for now.

The key problem was that the aperture size detection using the MSAC bit
doesn't work -- the bit appears to be set even when it shouldn't be. Linux
takes a different approach, testing for a bit of the GMADR (PCIR_BAR(2)) being
set. However, as I don't think that's a safe way to test aperture size, we
just allocate the resource and check its size. This also pointed out that
agp_generic_attach hadn't been allocating our aperture resource, which may
have caused problems in some cases.
Also corrected is a minor copy-and-pasteo in an error case.

With the first part of my previous Summer of Code work, we get:
-made libalias modular:
-support for 'particular' protocols (like ftp/irc/etcetc) is no more
hardcoded inside libalias, but it's available through external
modules loadable at runtime
-modules are available both in kernel (/boot/kernel/alias_*.ko) and
user land (/lib/libalias_*)
-protocols/applications modularized are: cuseeme, ftp, irc, nbt, pptp,
skinny and smedia
-added logging support for kernel side
-cleanup
After a buildworld, do a 'mergemaster -i' to install the file libalias.conf
in /etc or manually copy it.
During startup (and after every HUP signal) user land applications running
the new libalias will try to read a file in /etc called libalias.conf:
that file contains the list of modules to load.
User land applications affected by this commit are ppp and natd:
if libalias.conf is present in /etc you won't notice any difference.
The only kernel land bit affected by this commit is ng_nat:
if you are using ng_nat, and it doesn't correctly handle
ftp/irc/etcetc sessions anymore, remember to kldload
the correspondent module (i.e. kldload alias_ftp).
General information and details about the inner working are available
in the libalias man page under the section 'MODULAR ARCHITECTURE
(AND ipfw(4) SUPPORT)'.
NOTA BENE: this commit affects _ONLY_ libalias, ipfw in-kernel nat
support will be part of the next libalias-related commit.
