it is no longer sufficient to get a lock on a buffer to know
that its write has been completed. We have to first get the
lock on the buffer, then check to see if it is doing a
background write. If it is doing background write, we have
to wait for the background write to finish, then check to see
if that fullfilled our dependency, and if not to start another
write. Luckily the explanation is longer than the fix.
a vnode has not been written (which would clear certain of its
dependencies). The problems arises because fsync with MNT_NOWAIT
no longer pushes all the dirty blocks associated with a vnode. It
skips those that require rollbacks, since they will just get instantly
dirty again. Such skipped blocks are marked so that they will not be
skipped a second time (otherwise circular dependencies would never
clear). So, we fsync twice to ensure that everything will be written
at least once.

This allows the driver to transmit packets again. *sigh*

packets into a single buffer, and set the DC_TX_COALESCE flag for the
Davicom DM9102 chip. I thought I had escaped this problem, but... This
chip appears to silently corrupt or discard transmitted frames when
using scatter/gather DMA (i.e. DMAing each packet fragment in place
with a separate descriptor). The only way to insure reliable transmission
is to coalesce transmitted packets into a single cluster buffer. (There
may also be an alignment constraint here, but mbuf cluster buffers are
naturally aligned on 2K boundaries, which seems to be good enough.)
The DM9102 driver for Linux written by Davicom also uses this workaround.
Unfortunately, the Davicom datasheet has no errata section describing
this or any other apparently known defect.

This prevents the occasional perror("SIOCGIFFLAGS") from appearing
at boot time.

Add a missing include.
Add some braces to silence gccs dumb complaints.
Add some consts

Add copyright to pmap_check.h (well, you could say it's been rewritten)
drive the transmitter, we have to check the interface's send queue in the
TX end of frame handler (i.e. the usb bulk out callback) and push out new
transmissions if the queue has packets in it and the transmitter is
ready. But the txeof handler is also called from a USB callback running
at splusb() too.
Grrr.
Those pages which have not been transcribed are referenced as

There is no perfect section for the ntp_* files, which document
configuration options for the NTP suite, so I'm putting them in
the same section as the pages for the utilities themselves.

This should fix Bill Pechter's problem but we'll see.

This is a new feature of groff and is a html driver for groff.
From the manual page:
"grohtml translates the output of GNU troff to html."
This is very interesting for people working on documentation.
