on processors that support 1 GB pages. Specifically, if the end of physical
memory is not aligned to a 1 GB page boundary, then map the residual
physical memory with multiple 2 MB page mappings rather than a single 1 GB
page mapping. When a 1 GB page mapping is used for this residual memory,
access to the memory is slower than when multiple 2 MB page mappings are
used. (I suspect that the reason for this slowdown is that the TLB is
actually being loaded with 4 KB page mappings for the residual memory.)

kernel.debug (or possibly other files), when WITH_CTF is active.
This is caused by a bug in clang's integrated assembler, causing malloc
to sometimes hang during initialization in statically linked executables
that use threading, such as the copy of ctfmerge that is built during
the bootstrap stage of buildworld. The bug has been submitted upstream:
http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=9352
Note that you might have to rebuild and install libc first, to get your
kernel build to finish, because the ctfmerge binary built during
bootstrap is linked with your base system's copy of libc.a, which might
already contain a bad copy of malloc.o.
Fix bug introduced in my previous commit: the kernel always dump native
signal numbers, so no need to check the ABI in ktrpsig().

White list sysarch calls allowed in capability mode; arguably, there
should be some link between the capability mode model and the privilege
model here. Sysarch is a morass similar to ioctl, in many senses.

Add a new system call flag, SYF_CAPENABLED, which indicates that a
particular system call is available in capability mode.
Add a new configuration file, kern/capabilities.conf (similar files
may be introduced for other ABIs in the future), which enumerates
system calls that are available in capability mode. When a new
system call is added to syscalls.master, it will also need to be
added here (if needed). Teach sysent parts to use this file to set
values for SYF_CAPENABLED for the native ABI.

Add a new credential flag, CRED_FLAG_CAPMODE, which indicates that a
subject (typically a process) is in capability mode.
Add two new system calls, cap_enter(2) and cap_getmode(2), which allow
setting and querying (but never clearing) the flag.
Export the capability mode flag via process information sysctls.

- Use vm_paddr_t for pa in pmap_steal_memory()
- Use uintmax_t and %jx to ensure that physical address are printed
correctly in cpu_startup() and pmap_bootstrap()
operation. Previously ownership was transferred to hardware before
setting address of new RX buffer such that it was possible for
hardware to use wrong RX buffer address.
While here keep compiler from re-ordering instructions by declaring
descriptor members volatile. Memory barriers would do the same job
but volatile is supposed to be cheaper than using memory barriers,
especially on MP systems.

Rename ...write_bytes... to ...write_records..., that's what they do.
Move writer .h stuff into writer private .h file.
Change logic in writer to support both fifolog usage in FreeBSD and
Measured usage better, by always using an input buffer.
Various cleanups.
Few new things available from now on:
- Data deduplication.
- Triple parity RAIDZ (RAIDZ3).
- zfs diff.
- zpool split.
- Snapshot holds.
- zpool import -F. Allows to rewind corrupted pool to earlier
transaction group.
- Possibility to import pool in read-only mode.

It used to choke on the notation "inb (%dx),%al" for "inb %dx,%al"; GNU
as accepts both forms. Which notation is more 'correct' is an open
question. :)
