Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using mis-identified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
- Add a kvaddr_type to represent kernel virtual addresses instead of
unsigned long.
- Add a struct kvm_nlist which is a stripped down version of struct nlist
that uses kvaddr_t for n_value.
- Add a kvm_native() routine that returns true if an open kvm descriptor
is for a native kernel and memory image.
- Add a kvm_open2() function similar to kvm_openfiles(). It drops the
unused 'swapfile' argument and adds a new function pointer argument for
a symbol resolving function. Native kernels still use _fdnlist() from
libc to resolve symbols if a resolver function is not supplied, but cross
kernels require a resolver.
- Add a kvm_nlist2() function similar to kvm_nlist() except that it uses
struct kvm_nlist instead of struct nlist.
- Add a kvm_read2() function similar to kvm_read() except that it uses
kvaddr_t instead of unsigned long for the kernel virtual address.
- Add a new kvm_arch switch of routines needed by a vmcore backend.
Each backend is responsible for implementing kvm_read2() for a given
vmcore format.
- Use libelf to read headers from ELF kernels and cores (except for
powerpc cores).
- Add internal helper routines for the common page offset hash table used
by the minidump backends.
- Port all of the existing kvm backends to implement a kvm_arch switch and
to be cross-friendly by using private constants instead of ones that
vary by platform (e.g. PAGE_SIZE). Static assertions are present when
a given backend is compiled natively to ensure the private constants
match the real ones.
- Enable all of the existing vmcore backends on all platforms. This means
that libkvm on any platform should be able to perform KVA translation
and read data from a vmcore of any platform.

- make WARNS=6 clean for archs w/o strict alignment requirments
- add const, ANSIfy, remove unused vars, cast types for comparison
- thanks to differing definitions of VM_MIN_ADDRESS across our archs, we
need to trick the compiler to not complain about signedness. We could
either fix VM_MIN_ADDRESS to always be a simple integer or make the
check conditional on $ARCH.

value the kernel calculated directly as we already read it
with struct vnet. This will make kvm_vnet.c more resilent
in case of possible kernel changes.

vnet.h, we now use jails (rather than vimages) as the abstraction
for virtualization management, and what remained was specific to
virtual network stacks. Minor cleanups are done in the process,
and comments updated to reflect these changes.

without VIMAGE virtualization in the kernel.
If we cannot resolve a symbol try to see if we can find it with
prefix of the virtualized subsystem, currently only "vnet_entry"
by identifying either the vnet of the current process for a
live system or the vnet of proc0 (or of dumptid if compiled
in a non-default way).
The way this is done currently allows us to only touch libkvm
but no single application. Once we are going to virtualize more
subsystems we will have to review this decision for better scaling.
