when particular function can't be found in nsswitch-module. For
example, getgrouplist(3) will use module-supplied 'getgroupmembership'
function (which can work in an optimal way for such source as LDAP) and
will fall back to the stanard iterate-through-all-groups implementation
otherwise.

contention. The intent is to dynamically adjust to load imbalances, which
can cause severe contention.
Use pthread mutexes where possible instead of libc "spinlocks" (they aren't
actually spin locks). Conceptually, this change is meant only to support
the dynamic load balancing code by enabling the use of spin locks, but it
has the added apparent benefit of substantially improving performance due to
reduced context switches when there is moderate arena lock contention.
Proper tuning parameter configuration for this change is a finicky business,
and it is very much machine-dependent. One seemingly promising solution
would be to run a tuning program during operating system installation that
computes appropriate settings for load balancing. (The pthreads adaptive
spin locks should probably be similarly tuned.)
vector of slots for lazily freed objects. For each deallocation, before
doing the hard work of locking the arena and deallocating, try several times
to randomly insert the object into the vector using atomic operations.
This approach is particularly effective at reducing contention for
multi-threaded applications that use the producer-consumer model, wherein
one producer thread allocates objects, then multiple consumer threads
deallocate those objects.

I wonder if an inode reference should be stored with the pathname

This allows libdtrace to determine the exact file from which
a kernel module was loaded without having to guess.
The kldstat(2) API is versioned with the size of the
kld_file_stat structure, so this change creates version 2.
Add the pathname to the verbose output of kldstat(8) too.

This commit includes the following core components:
* sample configuration file for sensorsd
* rc(8) script and glue code for sensorsd(8)
* sysctl(3) doc fixes for CTL_HW tree
* sysctl(3) documentation for hardware sensors
* sysctl(8) documentation for hardware sensors
* support for the sensor structure for sysctl(8)
* rc.conf(5) documentation for starting sensorsd(8)
* sensor_attach(9) et al documentation
* /sys/kern/kern_sensors.c
o sensor_attach(9) API for drivers to register ksensors
o sensor_task_register(9) API for the update task
o sysctl(3) glue code
o hw.sensors shadow tree for sysctl(8) internal magic
* <sys/sensors.h>
* HW_SENSORS definition for <sys/sysctl.h>

The userland part of the framework is entirely source-code
compatible with OpenBSD 4.1, 4.2 and -current as of today.
All sensor readings can be viewed with `sysctl hw.sensors`,
monitored in semi-realtime with `systat -sensors` and also
logged with `sensorsd`.

for wide characters locales in the argument range >= 0x80 - they may
return false positives.
Example 1: for UTF-8 locale we currently have:
iswspace(0xA0)==1 and isspace(0xA0)==1
(because iswspace() and isspace() are the same code)
but must have
iswspace(0xA0)==1 and isspace(0xA0)==0
(because there is no such character and all others in the range
0x80..0xff for the UTF-8 locale, it keeps ASCII only in the single byte
range because our internal wchar_t representation for UTF-8 is UCS-4).
Example 2: for all wide character locales isalpha(arg) when arg > 0xFF may
return false positives (must be 0).
(because iswalpha() and isalpha() are the same code)
This change address this issue separating single byte and wide ctype
and also fix iswascii() (currently iswascii() is broken for
arguments > 0xFF).
This change is 100% binary compatible with old binaries.
