rather than panicking later. This can occur if the kernel calls
vn_open() on a fifo, as there will be no associated file descriptor,
and therefore the file descriptor operations cannot be modified to
point to the fifo operation set.

Previously, we tried to allow this only for root. However, we were calling
suser() on the *target* process rather than the current process. This
means that if you can ptrace() a process running as root you can set a
hardware watch point in the kernel. In practice I think you probably have
to be root in order to pass the p_candebug() checks in ptrace() to attach
to a process running as root anyway. Rather than fix the suser(), I just
axed the entire idea, as I can't think of any good reason _at all_ for
userland to set hardware watch points for KVM.

Also thinks hardware watch points on KVM from userland are bad: bde, rwatson
processing, this actually means there's a double slash recorded in the
symbolic link's path name. We used to start over from / then, which
caused link targets like ../../bsdi.1.0/include//pathnames.h to be
interpreted as /pathnahes.h. This is both contradictionary to our
conventional slash interpretation, as well as potentially dangerous.
The right thing to do is (obviously) to just ignore that element.
bde once pointed out that mistake when he noticed it on the
4.4BSD-Lite2 CD-ROM, and asked me for help.

only other consumer of libdisk is sysinstall so removing the shared library

- Speed up synchronization process by using configurable number of I/O
requests in parallel.
+ Add kern.geom.raid3.sync_requests tunable which defines how many parallel
I/O requests should be used.
+ Retire kern.geom.raid3.reqs_per_sync and kern.geom.raid3.syncs_per_sec
sysctls.
- Fix race between regular and synchronization requests.
- Reimplement raid3's data synchronization - do not use the topology lock
for this purpose, as it may case deadlocks.
- Stop synchronization from pre-sync hook.
- Fix some other minor issues.

to define its symbols in the same namespace used by libc.
The compatibility hooks allows you to use libraries and
binaries built and linked to libpthread before libc was
built with symbol versioning. The shims can be removed if
libpthread is given a version bump.
