locking flags when acquiring a vnode. The immediate purpose is
to allow polling lock requests (LK_NOWAIT) needed by soft updates
to avoid deadlock when enlisting other processes to help with
the background cleanup. For the future it will allow the use of
shared locks for read access to vnodes. This change touches a
lot of files as it affects most filesystems within the system.
It has been well tested on FFS, loopback, and CD-ROM filesystems.

the bio and buffer structures to have daddr64_t bio_pblkno,
b_blkno, and b_lblkno fields which allows access to disks
larger than a Terabyte in size. This change also requires
that the VOP_BMAP vnode operation accept and return daddr64_t
blocks. This delta should not affect system operation in
any way. It merely sets up the necessary interfaces to allow
the development of disk drivers that work with these larger
disk block addresses. It also allows for the development of
UFS2 which will use 64-bit block addresses.
Problem:
selwakeup required calling pfind which would cause lock order
reversals with the allproc_lock and the per-process filedesc lock.
Solution:
Instead of recording the pid of the select()'ing process into the
selinfo structure, actually record a pointer to the thread. To
avoid dereferencing a bad address all the selinfo structures that
are in use by a thread are kept in a list hung off the thread
(protected by sellock). When a selwakeup occurs the selinfo is
removed from that threads list, it is also removed on the way out
of select or poll where the thread will traverse its list removing
all the selinfos from its own list.
Problem:
Previously the PROC_LOCK was used to provide the mutual exclusion
needed to ensure proper locking, this couldn't work because there
was a single condvar used for select and poll and condvars can
only be used with a single mutex.
Solution:
Introduce a global mutex 'sellock' which is used to provide mutual
exclusion when recording events to wait on as well as performing
notification when an event occurs.
Interesting note:
schedlock is required to manipulate the per-thread TDF_SELECT
flag, however if given its own field it would not need schedlock,
also because TDF_SELECT is only manipulated under sellock one
doesn't actually use schedlock for syncronization, only to protect
against corruption.
Proc locks are no longer used in select/poll.

While doing this, move it earlier in the sysinit boot process so that the
VM system can use it.
After that, the system is now able to use sx locks instead of lockmgr
locks in the VM system. To accomplish this, some of the more
questionable uses of the locks (such as testing whether they are
owned or not, as well as allowing shared+exclusive recursion) are
removed, and simpler logic throughout is used so locks should also be
easier to understand.
This has been tested on my laptop for months, and has not shown any
problems on SMP systems, either, so appears quite safe. One more
user of lockmgr down, many more to go :)
The stat() and open() calls have been changed to make use of this new functionality. Using shared locks in
these cases is sufficient and can significantly reduce their latency if IO is pending to these vnodes. Also,
this reduces the number of exclusive locks that are floating around in the system, which helps reduce the
number of deadlocks that occur.
A new kernel option "LOOKUP_SHARED" has been added. It defaults to off so this patch can be turned on for
testing, and should eventually go away once it is proven to be stable. I have personally been running this
patch for over a year now, so it is believed to be fully stable.

o Add proper prototypes for byteorder(3) functions in <sys/param.h>.
o Prevent redundant duplicate prototypes by making use of the

o Move the bswap16(), bswap32(), bswap64() C functions into MD space

individual filesystems to determine whether they should operate in
"file system as a single object" mode, or "file system as a set of objects
with individual labels" mode. Note: in the trustedbsd_mac branch,
this is refered to as "MNT_MULTILEVEL", but the two mean the same thing.
MNT_MULTILABEL is more suggestive of a flexible policy system than one
providing purely hierarchal policies. The need for a reserved flag will
go away once nmount() is done.

be allocated as arrays indexed by the cpu id. Previously the only reliable
way to know the max cpu id was through MAXCPU. mp_ncpus isn't useful here
because cpu ids may be sparsely mapped, although x86 and alpha do not do this.
Also, call cpu_mp_probe much earlier so the max cpu id is known before the VM
starts up. This is intended to help support per cpu queues for the new
allocator, but may be useful elsewhere.

This makes other power-management system (APM for now) to be able to
generate power profile change events (ie. AC-line status changes), and
other kernel components, not only the ACPI components, can be notified
the events.
- move subroutines in acpi_powerprofile.c (removed) to kern/subr_power.c
- call power_profile_set_state() also from APM driver when AC-line
status changes
- add call-back function for Crusoe LongRun controlling on power
profile changes for a example
device drivers for bus system with other endinesses than the CPU (using
interfaces compatible to NetBSD):
- bwap16() and bswap32(). These have optimized implementations on some
architectures; for those that don't, there exist generic implementations.
- macros to convert from a certain byte order to host byte order and vice
versa, using a naming scheme like le16toh(), htole16().
These are implemented using the bswap functions.
- stream bus space access functions, which do not perform a byte order
conversion (while the normal access functions would if the bus endianess
differs from the CPU endianess).
htons(), htonl(), ntohs() and ntohl() are implemented using the new
functions above for kernel usage. None of the above interfaces is currently
exported to user land.
Make use of the new functions in a few places where local implementations
of the same functionality existed.
