address space on the amd64 architecture. The amd64 architecture
requires kernel code and global variables to reside in the highest 2GB
of the 64-bit virtual address space. Thus, KERNBASE cannot change.
However, KERNBASE is sometimes used as the start of the kernel virtual
address space. Henceforth, VM_MIN_KERNEL_ADDRESS should be used
instead. Since KERNBASE and VM_MIN_KERNEL_ADDRESS are still the same
address, there should be no visible effect from this change (yet).
This is needed for correct behavior when packets are lost or reordered.

needed to promote cdev to cdev_priv, the si_priv pointer was followed.
Use member2struct() to calculate address of the wrapping cdev_priv.
Rename si_priv to __si_reserved.

libi386's time(), caused by a qemu bug. The bug might
be present in other BIOSes, too.
qemu either does not simulate the AT RTC correctly or
has a broken BIOS 1A/02 implementation, and will return
an incorrect value if the RTC is read while it is being
updated.
The effect is worsened by the fact that qemu's INT 15/86
function ("wait" a.k.a. usleep) is non-implmeneted or
broken and returns immediately, causing beastie.4th to
spin in a tight loop calling the "read RTC" function
millions of times, triggering the problem quickly.
Therefore, we keep reading the BIOS value until we get
the same result twice. This change fixes beastie.4th's
countdown under qemu.

- Make it so this function also arranges for any threads
created by the image to do a kthread_exit()
of whether NETATALKDEBUG is enabled, so make building it conditional on
NETATALK instead. This problem appears to have been present from the time
that the netatalk implementation was imported.

sgtty was the original interface to configure terminal attributes on my
UNIX-like operating systems. It has been deprecated by the POSIX termios
interface, which is implemented in almost any modern system.
An advantage of turning this into a binary compatibility interface, is
that we can now eventually remove the COMPAT_43TTY switch from kernel
configurations. This removes many ioctl()'s from the TTY layer.
While there, increase the __FreeBSD_version, which may be useful for the
people working on the Ports tree.

all global variables to be accessed via a macro or two.
The variables all go into a single structure.

same as the global variable defined in ip_input.c. Instead, adopt the name
'q' as found in about 1/2 of uses in ip_input.c, preventing a collision on
the name. This is non-harmful, but means that search and replace on the
global works less well (as in the virtualization work), as well as indexing
tools.

before PG_M. This sometimes prevents unnecessary removal of write access
from a PTE. Overall, the net result is fewer demotions and promotion
failures.
- Add a mutex to the softc to protect the softc and device hardware.
- Use a private watchdog timer.
- Setup interrupt handler after ether_ifattach().
- Use bus_foo() rather than bus_space_foo() and remove bus space tag and
handle from softc.

Now that we got rid of the minor-to-unit conversion and the constraints
on device minor numbers, we can convert the functions that operate on
minor and unit numbers to simple macro's. The unit2minor() and
minor2unit() macro's are now no-ops.
The ZFS code als defined a macro named `minor'. Change the ZFS code to
use umajor() and uminor() here, as it is the correct approach to do
this. Also add $FreeBSD$ to keep SVN happy.

page table page. The direction of the traversal can matter if
pmap_promote_pde() has to remove write access (PG_RW) from a PTE that hasn't
been modified (PG_M). In general, if there are two or more such PTEs to
choose among, it is better to write protect the one nearer the high end of
the page table page rather than the low end. This is because most programs
access memory in an ascending direction. The net result of this change is a
sometimes significant reduction in the number of failed promotion attempts
and the number of pages that are write protected by pmap_promote_pde().
