- Add a new _lock() call to each API that locks the associated chain lock
for a lock_object pointer or wait channel. The _lookup() functions now
require that the chain lock be locked via _lock() when they are called.
- Change sleepq_add(), turnstile_wait() and turnstile_claim() to lookup
the associated queue structure internally via _lookup() rather than
accepting a pointer from the caller. For turnstiles, this means that
the actual lookup of the turnstile in the hash table is only done when
the thread actually blocks rather than being done on each loop iteration
in _mtx_lock_sleep(). For sleep queues, this means that sleepq_lookup()
is no longer used outside of the sleep queue code except to implement an
assertion in cv_destroy().
- Change sleepq_broadcast() and sleepq_signal() to require that the chain
lock is already required. For condition variables, this lets the
cv_broadcast() and cv_signal() functions lock the sleep queue chain lock
while testing the waiters count. This means that the waiters count
internal to condition variables is no longer protected by the interlock
mutex and cv_broadcast() and cv_signal() now no longer require that the
interlock be held when they are called. This lets consumers of condition
variables drop the lock before waking other threads which can result in
fewer context switches.

processes in jail could create raw sockets, additional access control
checks were added to raw IP sockets to limit the ways in which those
sockets could be used. Specifically, only the socket option IP_HDRINCL
was permitted in rip_ctloutput(). Other socket options were protected
by a call to suser(). This change was required to prevent processes
in a Jail from modifying system properties such as multicast routing
and firewall rule sets.
However, it also introduced a regression: processes that create a raw
socket with root privilege, but then downgraded credential (i.e., a
daemon giving up root, or a setuid process switching back to the real
uid) could no longer issue other unprivileged generic IP socket option
operations, such as IP_TOS, IP_TTL, and the multicast group membership
options, which prevented multicast routing daemons (and some other
tools) from operating correctly.
This change pushes the access control decision down to the granularity
of individual socket options, rather than all socket options, on raw
IP sockets. When rip_ctloutput() doesn't implement an option, it will
now pass the request directly to in_control() without an access
control check. This should restore the functionality of the generic
IP socket options for raw sockets in the above-described scenarios,
which may be confirmed with the ipsockopt regression test.

md(8). The former is generally not going to fail, but the latter can
fail when the underlying swap device returns an error.
There are still plenty of other places where vm_pager_get_pages() failing
will lead directly to crashes, so it's a good idea to put your swap on
RAID if you care enough to put any of your disks on RAID....
by the time that kldload(8) returns. Satisfy that by making the GEOM
module load event -- only when the kernel is !cold -- wait until the
GEOM module init function has finished instead of returning immediately.
This is the other half of fixing md(8) (actually, "mfs" in fstab(5))
that is similar to r1.128 of src/sys/dev/md/md.c. This bug would be
why RAM disks would often fail on boot and the first call to mdconfig(8)
would probably fail.
pjd has ideas for not requiring kldload(8) to work synchronously for
control devices that could make this obsolete.

sysctl routines and state. Add some code to use it for signalling the need
to downconvert a data structure to 32 bits on a 64 bit OS when requested by
a 32 bit app.
I tried to do this in a generic abi wrapper that intercepted the sysctl
oid's, or looked up the format string etc, but it was a real can of worms
that turned into a fragile mess before I even got it partially working.
With this, we can now run 'sysctl -a' on a 32 bit sysctl binary and have
it not abort. Things like netstat, ps, etc have a long way to go.
This also fixes a bug in the kern.ps_strings and kern.usrstack hacks.
These do matter very much because they are used by libc_r and other things.
