Note, this is going to be messy.. 2.3 was vendor-branch imported, while
2.6 was done as a delta. Sigh. I'm importing this on a vendor branch so
that it will be easier to deal with next time..
(cvs-1.6 wants rcs-5.7, and rcs-5.7 suggests diffutils-2.7)
1: generate the outfile in /tmp if it's not specified explicitly.
2: if the outfile was implicitly placed in /tmp, automatically remove it.
This means that you can type: modload /lkm/ipfw_mod.o and it'll work, it
wont try and write to /lkm, and it wont leave the (normally) useless
symbol file.
This should not interfere with things like ibcs2 and atapi, which
export some symbols from one LKM to the other by leaving the symbol file.
This code will only be included in your kernel if you have
'options DEVRANDOM', but that will fall away in a couple of days.

of the recent changes to bsd.kmod.mk, which enforces that the entry
point be <modname>_mod, unless overridden.
This means that when modloading "/lkm/foo_mod.o", it'll use "foo_mod"
as the default entry point (instead of xxxinit) unless you specify
another via the -e option.
The goal is to make them "user-friendly" :-)
In the end this will allow a SNMP style "getnext" function, sysctl editing
in the boot-editor and/or debugger, LKMs can define sysctl vars when
they get loaded, and remove them when unloaded and other interesting
uses for dynamic sysctl variables.
convention of having their entry point named "<modname>_mod"".
Symorder is enforcing this when the current bsd.kmod.mk is installed.
I've not tested all these, but at least they all compile now.
Reattach them to the makefile.
Note that the change that I made to symorder needs to be compiled and
installed before any LKM's will work - the last version was corrupting
the relocation tables. A "make world" will to this, but if you
manually run a make on the lkm's you'll need to take care of it by
hand.
only, as it payes no attention to the relocation table (which
references the symbols).
As a result, running "symorder -c" to clean up the visibility of a LKM
".o" file (as is done in the new bsd.kmod.mk) totally screws up the
relocation table, making the LKM file unloadable. (ld: bogus
relocation record)
This is a pretty crude fix - I've changed symorder so that when
running in "cleanup" mode, it disables the reordering which was
screwing up the relocation table. I'm sure there is a better fix, but
I didn't have the energy. Feel free to fix this hack, probably by
renumbering the symbol indexes in the relocation table.

Set the size before one error return from sysctl_vnode() the same as before
the other. The caller might want to know about the amount successfully
read although the current caller doesn't.
patches to merge the two IPX packages to work with each other and to
not break make-world :)
IPXrouted should be working now, (or at least compiling) :)
