If the interrupt count is very high (greater than ~42M), notably on one-shot
execution on long running systems, the intermediate multiplication step in the
rate calculation will overflow the width of a 32-bit architecture long (32
bits), causing the rest of the calculation to calculate with a truncated value,
and report very low rates (sometimes 0).

- The process stats are actually thread counts rather than process
counts.
- Simplify various descriptions to remove mention of stats that are
updated every 5 seconds (all VM related stats are now "instant",
only the load average is updated every 5 seconds).
- Don't make any mention of special treatment for processes that have
been active in the last 20 seconds. We don't track that stat.
- Rework the description of active virtual memory. Call it mapped
virtual memory and explicitly point out it is not the same as the
active page queue (which corresponds to "Active" in top(1)), and
also hint at the possible bogusness of the value (e.g. if a process
maps a single page out of a multiple GB file, the entire file's size
is considered mapped).
- Simplify a few descriptions that implied their output was a value
per interval. All of the "rate" values are per-second rates scaled
across the interval.
- Update a few comments for 'struct vmtotal' along similar lines.

The NetBSD tests for vmstat are basically just a smoke test, ensuring that
executing `vmstat` and `vmstat -s` exit successfully. This is more than we
test now, so go with it.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
In the libxo output from vmstat, the number of pages that have been
paged out uses the same key name as the number of times pages have been
paged. Appears to have been a typo or copy-pasto.

in place. To do per-cpu stats, convert all fields that previously were
maintained in the vmmeters that sit in pcpus to counter(9).
- Since some vmmeter stats may be touched at very early stages of boot,
before we have set up UMA and we can do counter_u64_alloc(), provide an
early counter mechanism:
o Leave one spare uint64_t in struct pcpu, named pc_early_dummy_counter.
o Point counter(9) fields of vmmeter to pcpu[0].pc_early_dummy_counter,
so that at early stages of boot, before counters are allocated we already
point to a counter that can be safely written to.
o For sparc64 that required a whole dummy pcpu[MAXCPU] array.
Further related changes:
- Don't include vmmeter.h into pcpu.h.
- vm.stats.vm.v_swappgsout and vm.stats.vm.v_swappgsin changed to 64-bit,
to match kernel representation.
- struct vmmeter hidden under _KERNEL, and only vmstat(1) is an exclusion.

Unfortunately filemon/meta mode tracks all indirect dependencies here
since ld(1) is reading libelf when linking in libkvm. Churn would be

Correct the usage in both the manpage and in usage() to indicate
that the wait interval and repetition count may be given either
with the respective -w/-c arguments, or as the final positional
arguments. [0]
The corresponding code to implement the positional arguments has
been conditional on the (always-enabled) BACKWARD_COMPATIBILITY
macro since the original 4.4-lite import. It's no longer reasonable
to remove the functionality, so remove the macro and conditional
instead.
Note that multiple disks may be given on the command line.
While here, sort arguments and apply minor mdoc fixes.
