operate on a GPT geom. Also, the GPT entry oriented verbs require
a non-downgraded GPT.
o Have all verbs take an optional flags parameter. The flags parameter
is a string of single-letter flags. The typical use of these flags
is to enable certain behaviour in support fo the gpt(8) tool.
o Add dummy implementations for the destroy and recover verbs.
This change causes test 2 of the GPT regression test suite to fail.
The presence of a geom parameter is now required even for unknown

It may be the case that you may hear some unwanted noise while
playing back with 24/32 bit. This is a problem in the USB system.
Explanation from Hans Petter Selasky:
---snip---
The current USB sound driver only uses one isochronous
buffer, that is restarted when it is completed. This will lead to a short
period of time, +1ms, where no sound data is sent to the external USB device.
Depending on the load of your computer, this can be as much as 50ms. So the
USB sound driver must use 2 isochronous transfers. At the beginning one will
queue both. Then these are restarted on completion. This will result in a
constant-rate data stream to the external sound device, a minimum sound
buffer equal to the size of the isochronous buffer, and possibly the sound
will reach your ears with less delay. Little delay is a result of constant
data rate. Currently only my USB driver will support that. If one tries that
with the USB driver in *BSD, then it will crash at the first moment one gets
a buffer underrun.

kernel memory and not using sysctl. Previously, libmemstat was used
only for the live kernel via sysctl paths.
This results in netstat output becoming both more consistent between
core dumps and the live kernel, and also more information in the core
dump case than previously (i.e., mbuf cache information).
Statistics relating to sfbufs still rely on a kvm descriptor as they
are not currently exposed via libmemstat. netstat -m operating on a
core is still unable to print certain sfbuf stats available on the live
kernel.

reliability when tracing fast-moving processes or writing traces to
slow file systems by avoiding unbounded queueuing and dropped records.
Record loss was previously possible when the global pool of records
become depleted as a result of record generation outstripping record
commit, which occurred quickly in many common situations.
These changes partially restore the 4.x model of committing ktrace
records at the point of trace generation (synchronous), but maintain
the 5.x deferred record commit behavior (asynchronous) for situations
where entering VFS and sleeping is not possible (i.e., in the
scheduler). Records are now queued per-process as opposed to
globally, with processes responsible for committing records from their
own context as required.
- Eliminate the ktrace worker thread and global record queue, as they
are no longer used. Keep the global free record list, as records
are still used.
- Add a per-process record queue, which will hold any asynchronously
generated records, such as from context switches. This replaces the
global queue as the place to submit asynchronous records to.
- When a record is committed asynchronously, simply queue it to the
process.
- When a record is committed synchronously, first drain any pending
per-process records in order to maintain ordering as best we can.
Currently ordering between competing threads is provided via a global
ktrace_sx, but a per-process flag or lock may be desirable in the
future.
- When a process returns to user space following a system call, trap,
signal delivery, etc, flush any pending records.
- When a process exits, flush any pending records.
- Assert on process tear-down that there are no pending records.
- Slightly abstract the notion of being "in ktrace", which is used to
prevent the recursive generation of records, as well as generating
traces for ktrace events.
Future work here might look at changing the set of events marked for
synchronous and asynchronous record generation, re-balancing queue
depth, timeliness of commit to disk, and so on. I.e., performing a
drain every (n) records.

The threshold for not being tiny was too small. Use the usual 2**-12
threshold. This change is not just an optimization, since the general
code that we fell into has accuracy problems even for tiny x. Avoiding
it fixes 2*1366 args with errors of more than 1 ulp, with a maximum
error of 1.167 ulps.
The magic number 22 is log(DBL_EPSILON)/2 plus slop. This is bogus
for float precision. Use 9 (~log(FLT_EPSILON)/2 plus less slop than
for double precision). The code for handling the interval
[2**-28, 9_was_22] has accuracy problems even for [9, 22], so this
change happens to fix errors of more than 1 ulp in about 2*17000
cases. It leaves such errors in about 2*1074000 cases, with a max
error of 1.242 ulps.
The threshold for switching from returning exp(x)/2 to returning
exp(x/2)^2/2 was a little smaller than necessary. As for coshf(),
This was not quite harmless since the exp(x/2)^2/2 case is inaccurate,
and fixing it avoids accuracy problems in 2*6 cases, leaving problems
in 2*19997 cases.
Fixed naming errors in pseudo-code in comments.
The threshold for not being tiny was confusing and too small. Use the
usual 2**-12 threshold and simplify the algorithm slightly so that
this threshold works (now use the threshold for sinhf() instead of one
for 1+expm1()). This is just a small optimization.

The threshold for switching from returning exp(x)/2 to returning
exp(x/2)^2/2 was a little smaller than necessary. This was not quite
harmless since the exp(x/2)^2/2 case is inaccurate. Fixing it happens
to avoid accuracy problems for 2*6 of the 2*151 args that were handled
by the exp(x)/2 case. This leaves accuracy problems for about 2*19997
args near the overflow threshold (~89); the maximum error there is
2.5029 ulps.
There are also accuracy probles for args in +-[0.5*ln2, 9] -- 2*188885
args with errors of more than 1 ulp, with a maximum error of 1.384 ulps.

future we want to test on something other than md(4) devices.
Also add a "conf" action so that we can check whether a gctl actually
did the right thing or not. It's one thing to check that the result
strings are as expected, but it doesn't tell us if the end result is
correct. This needs a bit more fleshing out, but for now a visual
(i.e. manual) check suffices.

MD class. Previously only the DISK class was dumped. The only
consumer of this sysctl is libdisk (i.e. sysinstall) and it tests
explicitly for instances of the DISK class. Dumping other classes
is therefore harmless.
By also dumping the MD class regression tests can be written that
use the MD class for operations that would normally be done on the
DISK class. The sysctl can now be used to test if those operations
took an effect. An example is partitioning.
