panic with the NDISulator if you did "ifconfig ndis0 10.0.0.1/24,"
whereas "ifconfig ndis0 10.0.0.1/24 up" worked fine. The double fault
was caused by the ifconfig thread running out of kernel stack space.
(This was partly due to the NDIsulator using a couple of big buffers on
the stack, but even after fixing that the double fault persisted.)
It turns out that ndis_init() is called in both cases, but in the first
case the code path passes through ieee80211_ioctl(), and it turns out
ieee80211_ioctl() consumes a whopping 2400 bytes of stack space.
Apparently, gcc -O2 causes the ieee80211_ioctl_get80211() routine to
be inlined into ieee80211_ioctl(), and for some reason which I do not
fully understand, this causes ieee80211_ioctl() to consume an extra 2K
of stack space.
To prevent this overly agressive optimization, ieee80211_ioctl_get80211()
is now declared with __attribute__ ((noinline)). With this change,
ieee80211_ioctl() now only reserves about 200 bytes of stack instead of 2400.
create kernel threads and call rfork(2) with RFTHREAD flag set in this case,
which puts parent and child into the same threading group. As a result
all threads that belong to the same program end up in the same threading
group.
This is similar to what linuxthreads port does, though in this case we don't
have a luxury of having access to the source code and there is no definite
way to differentiate linux_clone() called for threading purposes from other
uses, so that we have to resort to heuristics.
Allow SIGTHR to be delivered between all processes in the same threading
group previously it has been blocked for s[ug]id processes.
This also should improve locking of the same file descriptor from different
threads in programs running under linux compat layer.

is only the first stage and does not yet handle packages (which will move
to their own disc(s)).
- By default, include the live filesystem on disc1, so that disc1 is now
both an install disc and a fixit disc. The images can still be split
into two separate discs by specifying SEPARATE_LIVEFS=yes.
- Remove /usr/ports from the live filesystem disc as the merged images
do not fit on even i386 otherwise. Also, the merged image already
contains a tarball of the entire ports tree, so /usr/ports was a
duplicate anyway.
- Stop building port READMES for the release sinc they are no longer used
(/usr/ports in the live filesystem was the last remaining user).
- Split cdrom.1 into three targets. cdrom.1 builds the live filesystem
image. cdrom.2 builds the disc1 image. Note that if SEPARATE_LIVEFS
is not specified these both write to the same area. cdrom.3 builds
the bootonly image and the UFS miniroot.
- The various distribution directories are now in a <buildname>
subdirectory of disc1 rather than being in the root so that the merged
image's root is not quite as cluttered.
- The disc1 image is now called disc1.iso and we no longer build a
miniinst.iso image. If CD_EXTRA_BITS is defined, then the iso.1 target
will simply include those bits in the disc1 image that it builds.

with EBUSY and a cdrom is not mounted at /cdrom, sysinstall fails to
treat it as an error and thinks that the disk mounted ok. However, it
doesn't find a cdrom.inf file so it complains. Later when it tries to
unmount the disk due to a mediaClose() umount(2) returns an error, and it
never clears its internal mounted flag. The fix here is to properly
handle EBUSY as an error if there isn't a CD already mounted at /cdrom.
- Add a new CDROMInitQuiet variable that can be used to shut up the dialog
box about the mount(2) system call failing when trying to mount a CD-ROM.
This is used by the feature described below.
- When using a fixit CD, first try to see if we can mount the disc in the
drive now and use it as a fixit CD. If not, then prompt the user to
insert the disc and try again. If we do succeed on the first "silent"
probe then we don't ask the user to eject the disk after leaving fixit
mode.
- Add a simple file existence test to make sure that the disc that we mount
really is a livefs disc.
- Explicitly switch back to ttyv0 when using the standard console after
the fixit shell dies. Previously this behavior worked accidentally
because all the fixit modes popped up a dialog box which contained a
hidden switch to ttyv0.
