are currently two problems with the use of 1GB page mappings by the direct
map. First, at least one device driver uses pmap_extract() rather than
DMAP_TO_PHYS() to translate a direct map address to a physical address.
Unfortunately, neither pmap_extract() nor pmap_kextract() yet support 1GB
page mappings. Second, pmap_bootstrap() needs to interrogate the MTRRs to
ensure that a 1GB page mapping doesn't span two MTRRs of different types.

- F_READAHEAD: specify the amount for sequential access. The amount is
specified in bytes and is rounded up to nearest block size.
- F_RDAHEAD: Darwin compatible version that use 128KB as the sequential
access size.
A third argument of zero disables the read-ahead behavior.
Please note that the read-ahead amount is also constrainted by sysctl
variable, vfs.read_max, which may need to be raised in order to better
utilize this feature.
Thanks Igor Sysoev for proposing the feature and submitting the original
version, and kib@ for his valuable comments.

correct in terms of semantics, but should be a no-op to compiler at this

- clean up USB detach logic. There seems to be some problems detaching multiple
USB HUBs connected in series from the root.
- after this patch the rule is:
1) Always use device_detach() on the USB HUB first.
2) Never just device_delete_child() on the USB HUB, because that function
will traverse to all the device leaves and free them first, and then the USB
stack will free the devices twice which doesn't work very well.
- make sure the did DMA delay gets set after the timeout has elapsed to make
logic more clear. There is no functional difference.

and from dump(8) when setfsent(3) fails due to /etc/fstab not existing:
DUMP: Can't open /etc/fstab for dump table information: No such...
This makes daily and security periodic runs somewhat cleaner in jails

Things will be updated and possibly converted to m4/.t style once the

Right now if applications want to use the mouse on the command line,
they use sysmouse(4) and install a signal handler in the kernel to
deliver signals when mouse events arrive. This conflicts with my plan to
change to TERM=xterm, so implement proper VT200-style mouse input.
Because mouse input is now streamed through the TTY, it means you can
now SSH to another system on the console and use the mouse there as
well. The disadvantage of the VT200 mouse protocol, is that it doesn't
seem to generate events when moving the cursor. Only when pressing and
releasing mouse buttons.
There are different protocols as well, but this one seems to be most
commonly supported.

This is done to make it harder to exploit kernel NULL pointer security
vulnerabilities. While this of course does not fix vulnerabilities,
it does mitigate their impact.
Note that this may break some applications, most likely emulators or
similar, which for one reason or another require mapping memory at
zero.
This restriction can be disabled with the security.bsd.mmap_zero
sysctl variable.

re-add $ipv6_enable support for backward compatibility. From
UPDATING:
1. To use IPv6, simply define $ifconfig_IF_ipv6 like $ifconfig_IF
for IPv4. For aliases, $ifconfig_IF_aliasN should be used.
Note that both variables need the "inet6" keyword at the head.
Do not set $ipv6_network_interfaces manually if you do not
understand what you are doing. It is not needed in most cases.
$ipv6_ifconfig_IF and $ipv6_ifconfig_IF_aliasN still work, but
they are obsolete.
2. $ipv6_enable is obsolete. Use $ipv6_prefer and/or
"inet6 accept_rtadv" keyword in ifconfig(8) instead.
If you define $ipv6_enable=YES, it means $ipv6_prefer=YES and
all configured interfaces have "inet6 accept_rtadv" in the
$ifconfig_IF_ipv6. These are for backward compatibility.
3. A new variable $ipv6_prefer has been added. If NO, IPv6
functionality of interfaces with no corresponding
$ifconfig_IF_ipv6 is disabled by using "inet6 ifdisabled" flag,
and the default address selection policy of ip6addrctl(8)
is the IPv4-preferred one (see rc.d/ip6addrctl for more details).
Note that if you want to configure IPv6 functionality on the
disabled interfaces after boot, first you need to clear the flag by
using ifconfig(8) like:
ifconfig em0 inet6 -ifdisabled
If YES, the default address selection policy is set as
IPv6-preferred.
The default value of $ipv6_prefer is NO.
4. If your system need to receive Router Advertisement messages,
define "inet6 accept_rtadv" in $ifconfig_IF_ipv6. The rc(8)
scripts automatically invoke rtsol(8) when the interface becomes
UP. The Router Advertisement messages are used for SLAAC
(State-Less Address AutoConfiguration).
This completes the fix from r185586.

a large page size that is greater than malloc(3)'s default chunk size but
less than or equal to 4 MB, then increase the chunk size to match the large
page size.
Most often, using a chunk size that is less than the large page size is not
a problem. However, consider a long-running application that allocates and
frees significant amounts of memory. In particular, it frees enough memory
at times that some of that memory is munmap()ed. Up until the first
munmap(), a 1MB chunk size is just fine; it's not a problem for the virtual
memory system. Two adjacent 1MB chunks that are aligned on a 2MB boundary
will be promoted automatically to a superpage even though they were
allocated at different times. The trouble begins with the munmap(),
releasing a 1MB chunk will trigger the demotion of the containing superpage,
leaving behind a half-used 2MB reservation. Now comes the real problem.
Unfortunately, when the application needs to allocate more memory, and it
recycles the previously munmap()ed address range, the implementation of
mmap() won't be able to reuse the reservation. Basically, the coalescing
rules in the virtual memory system don't allow this new range to combine
with its neighbor. The effect being that superpage promotion will not
reoccur for this range of addresses until both 1MB chunks are freed at some
point in the future.

It is quite inconvenient that if an application for xterm uses 256 color
mode, text suddenly starts to blink (because of ;5; in the middle).
We'd better just implement 256 color mode and add a conversion routine
from 256 to 8 color mode, which doesn't seem to be too bad in practice.
Remapping colors is done quite simple. If one of the channels is most
actively represented, primary colors are used. If two channels are most
actively represented, secondary colors are used. If all three channels
are equal (gray), it picks between black and white.
