Various bhyve fixes:
- Don't save host's return address in 'struct vmxctx'.
- Permit non-32-bit accesses to local APIC registers.
- Factor out common ioport handler code.
- Use calloc() in favor of malloc + memset.
- Change the vlapic timer frequency to be in the ballpark of contemporary
hardware.
- Allow the guest to read the TSC via MSR 0x10.
- A VMCS is always inactive when it exits the vmx_run() loop. Remove
redundant code and the misleading comment that suggest otherwise.
- Ignore writes to microcode update MSR. This MSR is accessed by RHEL7
guest.
Add KTR tracepoints to annotate wrmsr and rdmsr VM exits.
- Provide an alias for the userboot console and name it 'comconsole'.
- Use EV_ADD to create an mevent and EV_ENABLE to enable it.
- abort(3) the process in response to a VMEXIT_ABORT.
- Don't include the guest memory segments in the bhyve(8) process core dump.
- Make the vmx asm code dtrace-fbt-friendly.
- Allow vmx_getdesc() and vmx_setdesc() to be called for a vcpu that is in
the VCPU_RUNNING state.
- Enable VMX in the IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL MSR if it not enabled and the MSR
isn't locked.
Fix this build for clang.
MFC r259730:
To avoid having to explicitly test COMPILER_TYPE for setting
clang-specific or gcc-specific flags, introduce the following new
variables for use in Makefiles:
CFLAGS.clang
CFLAGS.gcc
CXXFLAGS.clang
CXXFLAGS.gcc
In bsd.sys.mk, these get appended to the regular CFLAGS or CXXFLAGS for
the right compiler.
MFC r259913:
For libstand and sys/boot, split off gcc-only flags into CFLAGS.gcc.
MFC r259927:
Fix pc98 build, by also forcing COMPILER_TYPE in sys/boot/pc98/boot2's
Makefile.

WITH[OUT]_SSP to avoid hitting an error if user has WITH_SSP in their
make.conf. Ports now use this knob.
make[7]: "/usr/src/share/mk/bsd.own.mk" line 466: WITH_SSP and
WITHOUT_SSP can't both be set.
This is similar to previous cleanup done in r188895

machine/signal.h and machine/ucontext.h into common x86 includes,
copying from amd64 and merging with i386.
Kernel-only compat definitions are kept in the i386/include/sigframe.h
and i386/include/signal.h, to reduce amd64 kernel namespace pollution.
The amd64 compat uses its own definitions so far.
The _MACHINE_ELF_WANT_32BIT definition is to allow the
sys/boot/userboot/userboot/elf32_freebsd.c to use i386 ELF definitions
on the amd64 compile host. The same hack could be usefully abused by
other code too.

Bump up the heap size to 1MB. With a few kernel modules, libstand
zalloc and userboot seem to want to use ~600KB of heap space, which
results in a segfault when malloc fails in bhyveload.
r241180
Clarify comment about default number of FICL dictionary cells.
r241153
Allow the number of FICL dictionary cells to be overridden.
Loading a 7.3 ISO with userboot/amd64 takes up 10035 cells,
overflowing the long-standing default of 10000.
Bump userboot's value up to 15000 cells.

.. so that consistent compilation algorithms are used for both
architectures as in practice the binaries are expected to be
interchangeable (for time being).
Previously i386 used default setting which were equivalent to
-march=i486 -mtune=generic.
The only difference is using smaller but slower "leave" instructions.

disk_open(). Very often this is called several times for one file.
This leads to reading partition table metadata for each call. To
reduce the number of disk I/O we have a simple block cache, but it
is very dumb and more than half of I/O operations related to reading
metadata, misses this cache.
Introduce new cache layer to resolve this problem. It is independent
and doesn't need initialization like bcache, and will work by default
for all loaders which use the new DISK API. A successful disk_open()
call to each new disk or partition produces new entry in the cache.
Even more, when disk was already open, now opening of any nested
partitions does not require reading top level partition table.
So, if without this cache, partition table metadata was read around
20-50 times during boot, now it reads only once. This affects the booting
from GPT and MBR from the UFS.
It uses new API from the part.c to work with partition tables.
Update userboot's disk driver to use new API. Note that struct
loader_callbacks_v1 has changed.
(x86 assembler optimization disabled for now because it
requires the new .cfi_* directives that is not supported
by base system binutils).

As I looked through the C library, I noticed the FreeBSD MIPS port has a
hand-written version of index(). This is nice, if it weren't for the
fact that most applications call strchr() instead.
Also, on the other architectures index() and strchr() are identical,
meaning we have two identical pieces of code in the C library and
statically linked applications.
Solve this by naming the actual file strchr.[cS] and let it use
__strong_reference()/STRONG_ALIAS() to provide the index() routine. Do
the same for rindex()/strrchr().
This seems to make the C libraries and static binaries slightly smaller,
but this reduction in size seems negligible.
