0f2b8a126a Fix new gcc-3.1 warnings. I think this gets GENERIC compiling cleanly
again.

ef82a51634 Here follows the new kernel dumping infrastructure.
Caveats:

The new savecore program is not complete in the sense that it emulates
enough of the old savecores features to do the job, but implements none
of the options yet.

I would appreciate if a userland hacker could help me out getting savecore
to do what we want it to do from a users point of view, compression,
email-notification, space reservation etc etc.  (send me email if
you are interested).

Currently, savecore will scan all devices marked as "swap" or "dump" in
/etc/fstab _or_ any devices specified on the command-line.

All architectures but i386 lack an implementation of dumpsys(), but
looking at the i386 version it should be trivial for anybody familiar
with the platform(s) to provide this function.

Documentation is quite sparse at this time, more to come.

Details:

ATA and SCSI drivers should work as the dump formatting code has been
removed.  The IDA, TWE and AAC have not yet been converted.

Dumpon now opens the device and uses ioctl(DIOCGKERNELDUMP) to set
the device as dumpdev.  To implement the "off" argument, /dev/null
is used as the device.

Savecore will fail if handed any options since they are not (yet)
implemented.  All devices marked "dump" or "swap" in /etc/fstab
will be scanned and dumps found will be saved to diskfiles
named from the MD5 hash of the header record.  The header record
is dumped in readable format in the .info file.  The kernel
is not saved.  Only complete dumps will be saved.

All maintainer rights for this code are disclaimed: feel free to
improve and extend.

the upcoming 7.4 family (7xxx controllers).

 - improved error reporting and handling
 - more diagnostic output
 - add extra command packet definitions
 - merge sources again with -stable

5596676e6c KSE Milestone 2
Note ALL MODULES MUST BE RECOMPILED
make the kernel aware that there are smaller units of scheduling than the
process. (but only allow one thread per process at this time).
This is functionally equivalent to teh previousl -current except
that there is a thread associated with each process.

Sorry john! (your next MFC will be a doosie!)

36b9aabb47 Turn on interrupt-entropy harvesting for all/any mass storage devices
I could find. I have no doubt missed a couple.

Interrupt entropy harvesting is still conditional on the
kern.random.sys.harvest_interrupt sysctl.

a1750a3801 If we can't get a command to back the bio we just took off the queue,
put the bio back, otherwise we'll drop it when we bail.  This was
causing bio lossage under load, leading to eventual system lockup.

a020bb21aa Major update to the 'twe' driver.
- Layout reorganisation to enhance portability.  The driver now has
   a relatively MI 'core' and a FreeBSD-specific layer over the top.
   Since the NetBSD people have already done their own port, this is
   largely just to help me with the BSD/OS port.

 - Request ID allocation changed to improve performance (I'd been
   considering switching to this approach after having failed to come
   up with a better way to dynamically allocate request IDs, and seeing
   Andy Doran use it in the NetBSD port of the driver convinced me
   that I was wasting my time doing it any other way).  Now we just
   allocate all the requests up front.

 - Maximum request count bumped back to 255 after characterisation
   of a firmware issue (off-by-one causing it to crash with 256
   outstanding commands).

 - Control interface implemented.  This allows 3ware's '3dm' utility to
   talk to the controller.  3dm will be available from 3ware shortly.

 - Controller soft-reset feature added; if the controller signals a
   firmware or protocol error, the controller will be reset and all
   outstanding commands will be retried.
