for what is currently the '-p' parameter. '-s' is what NetBSD
used (and they implemented it before I added -p in FreeBSD), and
it also matches the '-s' option in syslogd. Someone in OpenBSD
land had also talked about adding a '-s' option, but it hasn't
happened yet.

constructing a struct aio and invoking VOP_READ() directly. This cleans
up the code a little, but also has the advantage of making sure almost
all vnode read/write access in the kernel goes through the helper
function, meaning that instrumentation of that helper function can impact
almost all relevant read/write operations. In this case, it permits us
to put MAC hooks into vn_rdwr() and not modify uipc_syscalls.c (yet).
In general, if helper vn_*() functions exist, they should be used in
preference to direct VOP's in system call service code.

needed in the current code, in the MAC tree, create_init() relies on the
ability to modify the credentials present for initproc, and should not
perform that modification on a shared credential. Pro-active diff
reduction against MAC changes that are in the queue; also facilitates
other work, including the capabilities implementation.

(Currently lack of their specification does not lead to any problem, because
kernel does not check the consistency between actual address and its
address family / length on raw socket.
However kernel should always check their consistency and stop sending packets
if there is a contradiction. Considering backward compatibility of
programs, I just fixed rtsol now; I'd like to fix the kernel behavior later.)

o Make the cam, cd9660 lomac and sound modules i386 and alpha
specific due to link problems (@gprel relocation when @ltoff
is required). Once resolved, these can be moved back to the
generic list.
o Build linprocfs only on those architectures that have the
linux module.
o Make the sppp module i386 and alpha specific due to compile
problems (pointers as switch cases). Once resolved, this can
be moved back to the generic list.
o Build all i386 specific modules, with the exception of those
mentioned above as being moved from the generic list to the
i386 list and those with dependencies on the linux module (aac)
or i386 dependent (ar, apm, atspeaker, fpu, gnufpu, ibcs2,
linux, ncv, nsp, netgraph, oltr, pecoff, s3, sbni, stg and
vesa).
o Don't build acpi as a module yet. It most be ported first.
Once ported, it can be added to the ia64 list.
o Don't build ipfilter yet due to compile errors (osreldate.h
not found).
Notice that if the device on which the dump is set is destroyed for
any reason, the dump setting is lost. This in particular will
happen in the case of spoilage. For instance if you set dump on
ad0s1b and open ad0 for writing, ad0s* will be spoilt and the dump
setting lost. See geom(4) for more about spoiling.

of this code. I very much doubt that "the FreeBSD way" really means "make
it as unreadable and unmaintable as possible", and I would like Makefile
style (which is not currently documented anywhere except in the minds of
bde and ru) to be discussed and agreed upon in the appropriate forum
before any further commits of this kind happen.
