- Update the firmware to the latest released firmware
(1.4.3), which corresponds to the firmware in the
latest shipping drivers from Myricom. This firmware
fixes several bugs in the firmware's PCI-e implementation,
and it also changes the driver/firmware interface:
o TSO was added, and changed the format of the transmit
descriptors.
o The firmware no longer counts transmits descriptors,
but frames. So the driver needs to keep a count
of the number of frames sent.
o The weird interrupt strategy changed to a normal receive
return ring. This ring is much bigger, and we may be
able to support DEVICE_POLLING.
o Myricom's header files changed the name of firmware
related #define's and enums (s/_MCP_/FW_).
- Stopped spamming the console with lots of printfs unless
mxge_verbose (or bootverbose) is set.
- Made additional information available via sysctl, including
the results of a PCI-e DMA benchmark run at device reset.
- Decreased the excessively long timeouts when sending commands
from 2 seconds to 20ms.

we intend for the user to be able to unload them later via kldunload(2)
instead of calling linker_load_module() and then directly adjusting the
ref count on the linker file structure. This makes the resulting
consumer code simpler and cleaner and better hides the linker internals
making it possible to sanely lock the linker.
Giant down in it.
- Push Giant down in kern_kldunload() and reorganize it slightly to avoid
using gotos. Also, expose this function to the rest of the kernel.
- Use a 'struct kld_file_stat' on the stack to read data under the lock
and then do one copyout() w/o holding the lock at the end to push the
data out to userland.
linker_file_unload() instead of in the middle of a bunch of code for
the case of dropping the last reference to improve readability and sanity.
While I'm here, remove pointless goto's that were just jumping to a
return statement.
moving the typedef of bus_space_tag_t from sys/sparc64/include/bus.h
to sys/sparc64/include/_bus.h. This brings sparc64 in sync with the
other platforms and fixes the compilation of drivers which include
<sys/rman.h> before <machine/bus.h> after sys/sys/rman.h rev. 1.34.
- Remove the definition of bus_type_t from sys/sparc64/include/_bus.h
as it's unused since sys/sparc64/include/bus.h rev. 1.6 and
sys/sparc64/sparc64/bus_machdep.c rev. 1.3.
- Remove some pointless comments.
Update of syscall.master:
o Adding of several new dummy syscalls (268-310)
o Synchronization of amd64 syscall.master with i386 one
o Auditing added to amd64 syscall.master
o Change auditing type for lstat syscall (bugfix). [1]

sockets:
1) A sender sends SCM_CREDS message to a reciever, struct cmsgcred;
2) A reciever sets LOCAL_CREDS socket option and gets sender
credentials in control message, struct sockcred.
Both methods use the same control message type SCM_CREDS with the
same control message level SOL_SOCKET, so they are indistinguishable
for the receiver. A difference in struct cmsgcred and struct sockcred
layouts may lead to unwanted effects.
Now for sockets with LOCAL_CREDS option remove all previous linked
SCM_CREDS control messages and then add a control message with
struct sockcred so the process specifically asked for the peer
credentials by LOCAL_CREDS option always gets struct sockcred.

I picked it up again. The scheduler is forked from ULE, but the
algorithm to detect an interactive process is almost completely
different with ULE, it comes from Linux paper "Understanding the
Linux 2.6.8.1 CPU Scheduler", although I still use same word
"score" as a priority boost in ULE scheduler.
Briefly, the scheduler has following characteristic:
1. Timesharing process's nice value is seriously respected,
timeslice and interaction detecting algorithm are based
on nice value.
2. per-cpu scheduling queue and load balancing.
3. O(1) scheduling.
4. Some cpu affinity code in wakeup path.
5. Support POSIX SCHED_FIFO and SCHED_RR.
Unlike scheduler 4BSD and ULE which using fuzzy RQ_PPQ, the scheduler
uses 256 priority queues. Unlike ULE which using pull and push, the
scheduelr uses pull method, the main reason is to let relative idle
cpu do the work, but current the whole scheduler is protected by the
big sched_lock, so the benefit is not visible, it really can be worse
than nothing because all other cpu are locked out when we are doing
balancing work, which the 4BSD scheduelr does not have this problem.
The scheduler does not support hyperthreading very well, in fact,
the scheduler does not make the difference between physical CPU and
logical CPU, this should be improved in feature. The scheduler has
priority inversion problem on MP machine, it is not good for
realtime scheduling, it can cause realtime process starving.
As a result, it seems the MySQL super-smack runs better on my
Pentium-D machine when using libthr, despite on UP or SMP kernel.
