o Properly use rman(9) to manage resources. This eliminates the
need to puc-specific hacks to rman. It also allows devinfo(8)
to be used to find out the specific assignment of resources to
serial/parallel ports.
o Compress the PCI device "database" by optimizing for the common
case and to use a procedural interface to handle the exceptions.
The procedural interface also generalizes the need to setup the
hardware (program chipsets, program clock frequencies).
o Eliminate the need for PUC_FASTINTR. Serdev devices are fast by
default and non-serdev devices are handled by the bus.
o Use the serdev I/F to collect interrupt status and to handle
interrupts across ports in priority order.
o Sync the PCI device configuration to include devices found in
NetBSD and not yet merged to FreeBSD.
o Add support for Quatech 2, 4 and 8 port UARTs.
o Add support for a couple dozen Timedia serial cards as found
in Linux.
OS dependent layer. Thus, the watchdog timer can go off when the tx
engine is working fine but the OS dependent layer just hasn't been called
to cleanup finished tx transactions. To workaround this, when the watchdog
fires, poke the binary blob to force it to flush any pending tx
completions. If this drops the pending tx count to zero then just return
without logging a message or resetting the chip.
This reportedly fixes the 'device timeout()' errors with at least several
NF4 nve(4) parts.

NULL when a unicast frame is to be delivered to an unassociated
station. This will be handled differently in the future but for
now putting the check here allows all drivers to immediately do
the right thing.

Remove the code to dyanmically change the pv_entry limits. Go back
to a single fixed kva reservation for pv entries, like was done
before when using the uma zone. Go back to never freeing pages
back to the free pool after they are no longer used, just like
before.
This stops the lock order reversal due to aquiring the kernel map
lock while pmap was locked.
This fixes the recursive panic if invariants are enabled.
The problem was that allocating/freeing kva causes vm_map_entry
nodes to be allocated/freed. That can recurse back into pmap as
new pages are hooked up to kvm and hence all the problem.
Allocating/freeing kva indirectly allocate/frees memory.
So, by going back to a single fixed size kva block and an index,
we avoid the recursion panics and the LOR.
The problem is that now with a linear block of kva, we have no
mechanism to track holes once pages are freed. UMA has the same
problem when using custom object for a zone and a fixed reservation
of kva. Simple solutions like having a bitmap would work, but would
be very inefficient when there are hundreds of thousands of bits
in the map. A first-free pointer is similarly flawed because pages
can be freed at random and the first-free pointer would be rewinding
huge amounts. If we could allocate memory for tree strucures or
an external freelist, that would work. Except we cannot allocate/free
memory here because we cannot allocate/free address space to use
it in. Anyway, my change here reverts back to the UMA behavior of
not freeing pages for now, thereby avoiding holes in the map.
ups@ had a truely evil idea that I'll investigate. It should allow
freeing unused pages again by giving us a no-cost way to track the
holes in the kva block. But in the meantime, this should get people
booting with witness and/or invariants again.
Footnote: amd64 doesn't have this problem because of the direct map
access method. I'd done all my witness/invariants testing there. I'd
never considered that the harmless-looking kmem_alloc/kmem_free calls
would cause such a problem and it didn't show up on the boot test.

pages existed only for the dynamic sysctl interfaces. There's probably
more complete and accurate content, better advice, etc, that could be added
here.
Per scottl's suggest, add a small piece of moralizing text regarding the
fact that sysctl names quickly get embedded in system configuration files,
libraries, third party applications, and even books, so renaming and
removing names after they've been published is a tricky issue.

eighth bit (0x080). It is the PS bit in a PDE and the PAT bit in a
PTE. This change avoids the possibility that pmap_enter() confuses a
PAT bit with a PS bit, avoiding a panic().
Eliminate a diagnostic printf() from the i386 pmap_enter() that serves
no current purpose, i.e., I've seen no bug reports in the last two
years that are helped by this printf().
