accessing files from various types of media nice and abstracted away from
the wet-work involved in preparing, validating, and initializing those
types of media. This will be used for the package management system module
and other modules that need access to files and want to allow the user to
decide where those files come from (either in a scripted fashion, prompted
fashion, or any combination thereof).
Heavily inspired by sysinstall and even uses the same reserved words so
that scripts are portable. Coded over months, tested continuously through-
out, and reviewed several times.
Some notes about the changes:
- Move network-setting acquisition/validation routines to media/tcpip.subr
- The options screen from sysinstall has been converted to a dialog menu
- The "UFS" media choice is renamed to "Directory" to reflect how sysinstall
treats the choice and a new [true] "UFS" media choice has been added that
acts on real UFS partitions (such as external disks with disklabels).
- Many more help files have been resurrected from sysinstall (I noticed that
some of the content seems a bit dated; I gave them a once-over but they
could really use an update).
- A total of 10 media choices are presented (via mediaGetType) including:
CD/DVD, FTP, FTP Passive, HTTP Proxy, Directory, NFS, DOS, UFS, Floppy, USB
- Novel struct/device management layer for managing the issue of passing
more information than can comfortably fit in an argument list.
These set of ranges will be looked at if a standard memory
range isn't found, and won't be installed in the cache.
Use this to implement the memory behaviour of the PCI hole on
x86 systems, where writes are ignored and reads always return -1.
This allows breakpoints to be set when issuing a 'boot -d', which
has the side effect of accessing the PCI hole when changing the
PTE protection on kernel code, since the pmap layer hasn't been
initialized (a bug, but present in existing FreeBSD releases so
has to be handled).

- When nfsdcnt is set, it dictates all values;
- Otherwise, nfsdargs.minthreads is set to user specified value, or the
automatically detected value if there is no one specified;
nfsdargs.maxthreads is set to the user specified value, or the value
of nfsdargs.minthreads if there is no one specified; when it is smaller
than nfsdargs.minthreads, the latter's value is always used.

Prior to this change pinning was implemented via an ioctl (VM_SET_PINNING)
that called 'sched_bind()' on behalf of the user thread.
The ULE implementation of 'sched_bind()' bumps up 'td_pinned' which in turn
runs afoul of the assertion '(td_pinned == 0)' in userret().
Using the cpuset affinity to implement pinning of the vcpu threads works with
both 4BSD and ULE schedulers and has the happy side-effect of getting rid
of a bunch of code in vmm.ko.

to do that. Instead, define NO_VERSION_DATE, which was helpfully added
to the named source code for exactly this purpose.

The crunchide utility presumes the last 3 chunks of an ELF object
layout are section headers, symbol table, and then string table.
However, this is not specified in the ELF standards, and linkers
may generate different layouts when doing partial linking (-r).
This change is required to build FreeBSD with mclinker or the
gold linker.

If the MSI-table is located in the middle of a BAR then we will split the
BAR into two and create two mappings - one before the table and one after
the table - leaving a hole in place of the table so accesses to it can be
trapped and emulated.

the MSI-X table bar even if the underlying device did not support MSI-X.
Fix this by providing an API to query the MSI-X table index of the emulated
device. If the underlying device does not support MSI-X then this API will
return -1.

Since ARP and routing are separated, "proxy only" entries
don't have any meaning, thus we don't need additional field
in sockaddr to pass SIN_PROXY flag.
New kernel is binary compatible with old tools, since sizes
of sockaddr_inarp and sockaddr_in match, and sa_family are
filled with same value.
The structure declaration is left for compatibility with
third party software, but in tree code no longer use it.
