Add tunables for the sem* and shm* syscontrols for tuning on boottime
until they become dynamic.
SAP R/3 doesn't like the compiled in defaults.
Note ALL MODULES MUST BE RECOMPILED
make the kernel aware that there are smaller units of scheduling than the
process. (but only allow one thread per process at this time).
This is functionally equivalent to teh previousl -current except
that there is a thread associated with each process.
Sorry john! (your next MFC will be a doosie!)

overflow if uap->nsops (which is already unsigned) is over INT_MAX;
consequently, the bounds check below becomes valid. Previously, if a
value over INT_MAX was passed in uap->nsops, the bounds check wouldn't
catch it, and the value would be used to compute copyin()'s third
argument.

credential structure, ucred (cr->cr_prison).
o Allow jail inheritence to be a function of credential inheritence.
o Abstract prison structure reference counting behind pr_hold() and
pr_free(), invoked by the similarly named credential reference
management functions, removing this code from per-ABI fork/exit code.
o Modify various jail() functions to use struct ucred arguments instead
of struct proc arguments.
o Introduce jailed() function to determine if a credential is jailed,
rather than directly checking pointers all over the place.
o Convert PRISON_CHECK() macro to prison_check() function.
o Move jail() function prototypes to jail.h.
o Emulate the P_JAILED flag in fill_kinfo_proc() and no longer set the
flag in the process flags field itself.
o Eliminate that "const" qualifier from suser/p_can/etc to reflect
mutex use.
Notes:
o Some further cleanup of the linux/jail code is still required.
o It's now possible to consider resolving some of the process vs
credential based permission checking confusion in the socket code.
o Mutex protection of struct prison is still not present, and is
required to protect the reference count plus some fields in the
structure.

current implementation, jail neither virtualizes the Sys V IPC namespace,
nor provides inter-jail protections on IPC objects.
o Support for System V IPC can be enabled by setting jail.sysvipc_allowed=1
using sysctl.
o This is not the "real fix" which involves virtualizing the System V
IPC namespace, but prevents processes within jail from influencing those
outside of jail when not approved by the administrator.

Remove evil allocation macros from machdep.c (why was that there???) and
use malloc() instead.
Move paramters out of param.h and into the code itself.
Move a bunch of internal definitions from public sys/*.h headers (without
#ifdef _KERNEL even) into the code itself.
I had hoped to make some of this more dynamic, but the cost of doing
wakeups on all sleeping processes on old arrays was too frightening.
The other possibility is to initialize on the first use, and allow
dynamic sysctl changes to parameters right until that point. That would
allow /etc/rc.sysctl to change SEM* and MSG* defaults as we presently
do with SHM*, but without the nightmare of changing a running system.
"time" wasn't a atomic variable, so splfoo() protection were needed
around any access to it, unless you just wanted the seconds part.
Most uses of time.tv_sec now uses the new variable time_second instead.
gettime() changed to getmicrotime(0.
Remove a couple of unneeded splfoo() protections, the new getmicrotime()
is atomic, (until Bruce sets a breakpoint in it).
A couple of places needed random data, so use read_random() instead
of mucking about with time which isn't random.
Add a new nfs_curusec() function.
Mark a couple of bogosities involving the now disappeard time variable.
Update ffs_update() to avoid the weird "== &time" checks, by fixing the
one remaining call that passwd &time as args.
Change profiling in ncr.c to use ticks instead of time. Resolution is
the same.
Add new function "tvtohz()" to avoid the bogus "splfoo(), add time, call
hzto() which subtracts time" sequences.

it in struct proc instead.
This fixes a boatload of compiler warning, and removes a lot of cruft
from the sources.
I have not removed the /*ARGSUSED*/, they will require some looking at.
libkvm, ps and other userland struct proc frobbing programs will need
recompiled.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
prototypes for all syscalls. The args structs are still declared in
comments as in VOP implementation functions. I don't like the
duplication for this, but several more layers of changes are required
to get it right. First we need to catch up with 4.4lite2, which uses
macros to handle struct padding. Then we need to catch up with NetBSD,
which passes the args correctly (as void *). Then we need to handle
varargs functions and struct padding better. I think all the details
can be hidden in machine-generated functions so that the args structs
and verbose macros to reference them don't have to appear in the core
sources.
Add prototypes.
Add bogus casts to hide the evil type puns exposed by the previous
steps. &uap[1] was used to get at the args after the first. This
worked because only the first arg in *uap was declared. This broke
when the machine- genenerated args struct declared all the args
(actually it declares extra args in some cases and depends on the
user stack having some accessible junk after the last arg, not to
mention the user args being on the stack. It isn't possible to
declare a correct args struct for a varargs syscall). The msgsys(),
semsys() and shmsys() syscall interfaces are BAD because they
multiplex several syscalls that have different types of args.
There was no reason to duplicate this sysv braindamage but now
we're stuck with it. NetBSD has reimplemented the syscalls properly
as separate syscalls #220-231.
Declare static functions as static in both their prototype and their
implementation (the latter is optional, and this misfeature was used).
Remove gratuitous #includes.
Continue cleaning up new init stuff.

This is a composite of 3 patch sets submitted by terry.
they are:
New low-level init code that supports loadbal modules better
some cleanups in the namei code to help terry in 16-bit character support
some changes to the mount-root code to make it a little more
modular..
NOTE: mounting root off cdrom or NFS MIGHT be broken as I haven't been able
to test those cases..
certainly mounting root of disk still works just fine..
mfs should work but is untested. (tomorrows task)
The low level init stuff includes a total rewrite of init_main.c
to make it possible for new modules to have an init phase by simply
adding an entry to a TEXT_SET (or is it DATA_SET) list. thus a new module can
be added to the kernel without editing any other files other than the
'files' file.
