35cc7fbeb8 kernel: invlpg facility
. only use for single-page invalidations initially
	. shows tiny but statistically significant performance
	  improvement; will be more helpful in certain VM debug
	  modes

d477a9ed82 vm/ipc: only report signals when it matters to ipc
. ipc wants to know about processes that get
	  signals, so that it can break blocking ipc operations
	. doing it for every single signal is wasteful
	  and causes the annoying 'no slot for signals' message
	. this fix tells vm on a per-process basis it (ipc)
	  wants to be notified, i.e. only when it does any ipc calls
	. move ipc config to separate config file while we're at it

85f6d866e6 rename mmap MAP_SHARED to MAP_IPC_SHARED
. MAP_SHARED was used to implement sysv shared memory
	. used to signal shareable memory region to VM
	. assumptions about this situation break when processes
	  use MAP_SHARED for its normal, standardised meaning

ef0a265086 New stat structure.
* VFS and installed MFSes must be in sync before and after this change *

Use struct stat from NetBSD. It requires adding new STAT, FSTAT and LSTAT
syscalls. Libc modification is both backward and forward compatible.

Also new struct stat uses modern field sizes to avoid ABI
incompatibility, when we update uid_t, gid_t and company.
Exceptions are ino_t and off_t in old libc (though paddings added).

cc17b27a2b Build NetBSD libc library in world in ELF mode.
3 sets of libraries are built now:
  . ack: all libraries that ack can compile (/usr/lib/i386/)
  . clang+elf: all libraries with minix headers (/usr/lib/)
  . clang+elf: all libraries with netbsd headers (/usr/netbsd/)

Once everything can be compiled with netbsd libraries and headers, the
/usr/netbsd hierarchy will be obsolete and its libraries compiled with
netbsd headers will be installed in /usr/lib, and its headers
in /usr/include. (i.e. minix libc and current minix headers set
will be gone.)

To use the NetBSD libc system (libraries + headers) before
it is the default libc, see:
   http://wiki.minix3.org/en/DevelopersGuide/UsingNetBSDCode
This wiki page also documents the maintenance of the patch
files of minix-specific changes to imported NetBSD code.

Changes in this commit:
  . libsys: Add NBSD compilation and create a safe NBSD-based libc.
  . Port rest of libraries (except libddekit) to new header system.
  . Enable compilation of libddekit with new headers.
  . Enable kernel compilation with new headers.
  . Enable drivers compilation with new headers.
  . Port legacy commands to new headers and libc.
  . Port servers to new headers.
  . Add <sys/sigcontext.h> in compat library.
  . Remove dependency file in tree.
  . Enable compilation of common/lib/libc/atomic in libsys
  . Do not generate RCSID strings in libc.
  . Temporarily disable zoneinfo as they are incompatible with NetBSD format
  . obj-nbsd for .gitignore
  . Procfs: use only integer arithmetic. (Antoine Leca)
  . Increase ramdisk size to create NBSD-based images.
  . Remove INCSYMLINKS handling hack.
  . Add nbsd_include/sys/exec_elf.h
  . Enable ELF compilation with NBSD libc.
  . Add 'make nbsdsrc' in tools to download reference NetBSD sources.
  . Automate minix-port.patch creation.
  . Avoid using fstavfs() as it is *extremely* slow and unneeded.
  . Set err() as PRIVATE to avoid name clash with libc.
  . [NBSD] servers/vm: remove compilation warnings.
  . u32 is not a long in NBSD headers.
  . UPDATING info on netbsd hierarchy
  . commands fixes for netbsd libc

e2570d9b1b vm: optimisation: avl tree for virtual regions
- regions were preivous stored in a linked list, as 'normally'
    there are just 2 or 3 (text, data, stack), but that's slow
    if lots of regions are made with mmap()

  - measurable performance improvement with gcc and clang

6513d20744 SMP - Process is stopped when VM modifies the page tables
- RTS_VMINHIBIT flag is used to stop process while VM is fiddling with
  its pagetables

- more generic way of sending synchronous scheduling events among cpus

- do the x-cpu smp sched calls only if the target process is runnable.
  If it is not, it cannot be running and it cannot become runnable
  this CPU holds the BKL
