haad-dm: Import of the device-mapper driver. This driver is a BSD rewrite of the linux dm driver. For now only error, linear and zero targets are supported.

This driver uses NetBSD specific ioctls based on proplib. Adam Hamsik was able to create a logical volume (with lvm2tools lvcreate utility) with this version of the driver, newfs it and mount it.

[Adam Hamsik]

ddb: Add a show files command that prints the vnodes associated with a given struct proc and, if LOCKDEBUG is built in, the lock status of the uvmobject.

1. ACPI S1 doesn't work properly for many people on NetBSD
2. It prevents someone from using their laptop with an external display

Make pmap_extract() lockless.

Reviewed by chs@ who reports a ~1% reduction in system time during a kernel build on a quad core amd64 system.
