ethernet (tested) and FDDI (not tested). The main use for this is on ADSL (or
other ATM) connections where bridged ethernet is used, PPPoE being a prime
example.
There is no manual page as yet, I will write one shortly.

that we (p1) are currently running, we hold a reference on p_textvp which
means the vnode cannot go away. p2 cannot run yet (and hence cannot exit)
so this should be safe to do at this point. As a bonus, it removes a
block of under-Giant code that was there to support the vref.
ever since alpha/alpha/pmap.c revision 1.81 introduced the list allpmaps,
there has been no reason for having this function on Alpha. Briefly,
when pmap_growkernel() relied upon the list of all processes to find and
update the various pmaps to reflect a growth in the kernel's valid
address space, pmap_init2() served to avoid a race between pmap
initialization and pmap_growkernel(). Specifically, pmap_pinit2() was
responsible for initializing the kernel portions of the pmap and
pmap_pinit2() was called after the process structure contained a pointer
to the new pmap for use by pmap_growkernel(). Thus, an update to the
kernel's address space might be applied to the new pmap unnecessarily,
but an update would never be lost.
if_ndis.c has been split into if_ndis_pci.c and if_ndis_pccard.c.
The ndiscvt(8) utility should be able to parse device info for PCMCIA
devices now. The ndis_alloc_amem() has moved from kern_ndis.c to
if_ndis_pccard.c so that kern_ndis.c no longer depends on pccard.
NOTE: this stuff is not guaranteed to work 100% correctly yet. So
far I have been able to load/init my PCMCIA Cisco Aironet 340 card,
but it crashes in the interrupt handler. The existing support for
PCI/cardbus devices should still work as before.

lock already held rather than unlocking it only to turn around and
relock it.

because different resource limits are appropriate for transient and
"permanent" page wiring requests.
Retain the kern_mlock() and kern_munlock() API in the revived
vslock() and vsunlock() functions.
Combine the best parts of each of the original sets of implementations
with further code cleanup. Make the mclock() and vslock()
implementations as similar as possible.
Retain the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK check in mlock(). Move the most strigent
test, which can return EAGAIN, last so that requests that have no
hope of ever being satisfied will not be retried unnecessarily.
Disable the test that can return EAGAIN in the vslock() implementation
because it will cause the sysctl code to wedge.

The previous logic meant that if a user sets it to a minimal cooling value
acpi_thermal will not use higher cooling levels. Reverse the logic so that
the user requesting a level (say, 2) also gets 0 - 1 also.

DIAGNOSTIC instead of INVARIANTS. INVARIANTS is intended for tests
that don't substantially change code flow or behavior (passive), but
this test required locking both the proc lock and scheduler lock
in order to execute. It also appears to be a very advisory diagnostic
as opposed to an invariant violation.

- completely unused things
- all of rev.1.102 (C++ support). <sys/cdefs.h> is included by the
prerequisite <sys/types.h>. __BEGIN_DECLS/__END_DECLS has no effect
(except possibly if undefined behaviour is invoked using a hack like
defining away __inline) since this header doesn't really support any
extern functions.
