not per-process. Keep it in `switchtime' consistently.
It is now clear that the timestamp is always valid in fork_trampoline()
except when the child is running on a previously idle cpu, which
can only happen if there are multiple cpus, so don't check or set
the timestamp in fork_trampoline except in the (i386) SMP case.
Just remove the alpha code for setting it unconditionally, since
there is no SMP case for alpha and the code had rotted.

linker is an executable (not a shared object) with a specific load
address encoded in the object file itself.

programs, including msdos, set PSL_NT in probes for old cpu types,
although PSL_NT doesn't do anything useful in vm86 or real mode.
PSL_NT is even less useful in the signal handlers. It just causes
T_TSSFLT faults on return from syscalls made by the handlers.
These faults are fixed up lazily so that Xsyscall() doesn't have
to be slowed down to prevent them. The fault handler recently
started complaining about these faults occurring "with interrupts
disabled". It should not have, but the complaints pointed to this

PQ_FREE. There is little operational difference other then the kernel
being a few kilobytes smaller and the code being more readable.
* vm_page_select_free() has been *greatly* simplified.
* The PQ_ZERO page queue and supporting structures have been removed
* vm_page_zero_idle() revamped (see below)
PG_ZERO setting and clearing has been migrated from vm_page_alloc()
to vm_page_free[_zero]() and will eventually be guarenteed to remain
tracked throughout a page's life ( if it isn't already ).
When a page is freed, PG_ZERO pages are appended to the appropriate
tailq in the PQ_FREE queue while non-PG_ZERO pages are prepended.
When locating a new free page, PG_ZERO selection operates from within
vm_page_list_find() ( get page from end of queue instead of beginning
of queue ) and then only occurs in the nominal critical path case. If
the nominal case misses, both normal and zero-page allocation devolves
into the same _vm_page_list_find() select code without any specific
zero-page optimizations.
Additionally, vm_page_zero_idle() has been revamped. Hysteresis has been
added and zero-page tracking adjusted to conform with the other changes.
Currently hysteresis is set at 1/3 (lo) and 1/2 (hi) the number of free
pages. We may wish to increase both parameters as time permits. The
hysteresis is designed to avoid silly zeroing in borderline allocation/free
situations.
to an architecture-specific value defined in <machine/elf.h>. This
solves problems on large-memory systems that have a high value for
MAXDSIZ.
The load address is controlled by a new macro ELF_RTLD_ADDR(vmspace).
On the i386 it is hard-wired to 0x08000000, which is the standard
SVR4 location for the dynamic linker.
On the Alpha, the dynamic linker is loaded MAXDSIZ bytes beyond
the start of the program's data segment. This is the same place
a userland mmap(0, ...) call would put it, so it ends up just below
all the shared libraries. The rationale behind the calculation is
that it allows room for the data segment to grow to its maximum
possible size.
These changes have been tested on the i386 for several months
without problems. They have been tested on the Alpha as well,
though not for nearly as long. I would like to merge the changes
into 3.1 within a week if no problems have surfaced as a result of
them.

/dev/urandom takes about 38 seconds on a P5/133. It is useful
to be able to kill such reads almost immediately. Processes
doing such reads are now scheduled so their denial of service
is no worse than that of processes looping in user mode.
Sun implemented iBCS2 compatibility on Solaris >= 2.6: The emulator
runs in user-mode, patching the LDT so that client programs making
syscalls through the old iBCS2 call gate get handled by the emulator
process. Unemulated syscalls therefore need their own call-gate that
bypasses the emulator. Sun chose LDT entry 4 to implement this, which
is what we've been using as LUDATA_SEL, so we need to change LUDATA_SEL
if we want to run Solaris executables.
