The correct range is [1...7] with Sunday=1, but we have been writing
[0...6] with Sunday=0.
The Soekris computers flagged the zero, zapped the date, so if you
rebooted your soekris on a sunday, it would come up with a wrong
date.
Bruce has a more extensive rework of this code, but we will stick with
the minimalist fix for now.

Previously these were libc functions but were requested to
be made into system calls for atomicity and to coalesce what
might be two entrances into the kernel (signal mask setting
and floating point trap) into one.
A few style nits and comments from bde are also included.

o on input don't strip the Ethernet header from packets
o input packet handling is now done with if_input
o track changes to ether_ifattach/ether_ifdetach API
o track changes to bpf tapping
o call ether_ioctl for default handling of ioctl's
o use constants from net/ethernet.h where possible

- Add detach support to the driver so that you can kldunload the module.
Note that currently rc_detach() fails to detach a unit if any of its
child devices are open, thus a kldunload will fail if any of the tty
devices are currently open.
- sys/i386/isa/ic/cd180.h was moved to sys/dev/ic/cd180.h as part of
this change.

2. Update a comment. We now restore much more than RTC updates and
interrupts.
3. Order change. Stop interrupts by writing to RTC_STATUSB,
restore rate bits for the interrupts by writing to RTC_STATUSA,
then enable interrupts again.
This seems to be done perfectly backwards in startrtclock().
Otherwise, the idea for this change was obtained from
startrtclock().
4. Don't stop the clock (RTCB_HALT). We only program some control bits
and don't want to stop the clock.
5. (Not really related.) Add caveats to the comment about timer_restore().
The update is non-atomic since locking is not done.
On locking:
6. rtcin() and writertc() are locked() adequately by splhigh() in RELENG_4,
but this locking is null in -current.
7. Doing things in the correct order in (3) combined with (6) is probably
enough locking for rtcrestore() in RELENG_4. In -current, the
writertc()'s race with rtcintr() unless the BIOS disables RTC interrupts.

NB: But it will enable it in all kernels not having options "NO_GEOM"
Put the GEOM related options into the intended order.
Add "options NO_GEOM" to all kernel configs apart from NOTES.
In some order of controlled fashion, the NO_GEOM options will be
removed, architecture by architecture in the coming days.
There are currently three known issues which may force people to
need the NO_GEOM option:
boot0cfg/fdisk:
Tries to update the MBR while it is being used to control
slices. GEOM does not allow this as a direct operation.
SCSI floppy drives:
Appearantly the scsi-da driver return "EBUSY" if no media
is inserted. This is wrong, it should return ENXIO.
PC98:
It is unclear if GEOM correctly recognizes all variants of
PC98 disklabels. (Help Wanted! I have neither docs nor HW)
These issues are all being worked.

testing any modifications to them, they shouldn't even bother with
disklabels in the first place and they are just plain obsolete old
hardware which should be axed entirely before 5.0-R IMO.

if compiling with I686_CPU as a target. CPU_DISABLE_SSE will prevent
this from happening and will guarantee the code is not compiled in.
I am still not happy with this, but gcc is now generating code that uses
these instructions if you set CPUTYPE to p3/p4 or athlon-4/mp/xp or higher.
-finstrument-functions instead of -mprofiler-epilogue. The former
works essentially the same as the latter but has a higher overhead
(about 22 more bytes per function for passing unused args to the
profiling functions).
Removed all traces of the IDENT Makefile variable, which had been
reduced to just a place for holding profiling's contribution to CFLAGS
(the IDENT that gives the kernel identity was renamed to KERN_IDENT).
- It actually works this time, honest!
- Fine grained TLB shootdowns for SMP on i386. IPI's are very expensive,
so try and optimize things where possible.
- Introduce ranged shootdowns that can be done as a single IPI.
- PG_G support for i386
- Specific-cpu targeted shootdowns. For example, there is no sense in
globally purging the TLB cache for where we are stealing a page from
the local unshared process on the local cpu. Use pm_active to track
this.
- Add some instrumentation for the tlb shootdown code.
- Rip out SMP code from <machine/cpufunc.h>
- Try and fix some very bogus PG_G and PG_PS interactions that were bad
enough to cause vm86 bios calls to break. vm86 depended on our existing
bugs and this was the cause of the VESA panics last time.
- Fix the silly one-line error that caused the 'panic: bad pte' last time.
- Fix a couple of other silly one-line errors that should have caused more
pain than they did.
Some more work is needed:
- pmap_{zero,copy}_page[_idle]. These can be done without IPI's if we
have a hook in cpu_switch.
- The IPI handlers need some cleanup. I have a bogus %ds load that can
be avoided.
- APTD handling is rather bogus and appears to be a large source of
global TLB IPI shootdowns for no really good reason.
I see speedups of between 1.5% and ~4% on buildworlds in a while 1 loop.
I expect to see a bigger difference when there is significant pageout
activity or the system otherwise has memory shortages.
I have backed out a few optimizations that I had been using over the last
few days in order to be a little more conservative. I'll revisit these
again over the next few days as the dust settles.
New option: DISABLE_PG_G - In case I missed something.
