Get rid of usrstack/USRSTACK. Document that the old version of getargv is
broken because of ASLR.

Use PRIxPADDR instead of type casting.

Fix the -m32 compat build for sparc64 after recent sparc/include/types.h
changes. XXX I suspect this variant has not been tested in real life.

Remove the #include <sys/user.h> from all of libkvm.
sys/user.h is a stub that just #includes sys/pcb.h.

Remove the #include <sys/user.h> from all of libkvm.
sys/user.h is a stub that just #includes sys/pcb.h.
There are no 'struct pcb' anywhere in here, so I'm extremely doubtful
any of the builds will fail.
OTOH it might be relying on a header that pcb.h includes.
In any case i386 and amd64 build.

Change kvm_pa2off() and kvm_kvatop() prototypes (private to kvm(3)):

-int _kvm_kvatop(kvm_t *, u_long, u_long *);
-off_t _kvm_pa2off(kvm_t *, u_long);
+int _kvm_kvatop(kvm_t *, vaddr_t, pa

Change kvm_pa2off() and kvm_kvatop() prototypes (private to kvm(3)):

-int _kvm_kvatop(kvm_t *, u_long, u_long *);
-off_t _kvm_pa2off(kvm_t *, u_long);
+int _kvm_kvatop(kvm_t *, vaddr_t, paddr_t *);
+off_t _kvm_pa2off(kvm_t *, paddr_t);

Basically, use vaddr_t for VA and paddr_t for PA. In addition, for variables
representing addresses, use paddr_t or vaddr_t, depending on the context.

For most arches, vaddr_t and paddr_t are equivalent to unsigned long. However,
the change was needed for exotic situations, like i386 PAE, were unsigned long
is not suitable for PA which are 64 bits long. As this required a complete
change of the function prototypes, all arches had to be adapted accordingly.

Core files from before this commit should still work with the new code; I did
not see any direct dependency between core's structure and kvatop/pa2off.

The change was compile tested for all arches, as it impacts all of them.

use <sparc/pmap.h> and <sparc/kcore.h> so this builds properly with
a 64 bit "cc -m32".

Handle reading from raw disk devices.

Move UCB-licensed code from 4-clause to 3-clause licence.

Patches provided by Joel Baker in PR 22280, verified by myself.

Consistently spell "crash dump" as two separate words. From jmc@openbsd.

undefine VA_VPG and VA_OFF before defining them.

Don't include <machine/pmap.h> and <machine/vmparam.h> if _KERNEL isn't
defined. Include them explicitly in the few kvm_arch.c that need them.

Format size mismatch

<vm/vm.h> -> <uvm/uvm_extern.h>

remove redundant vm includes

More trailing white space.

uh...make this build on the sparc again...or something. i've had

renamed so that they don't break the sparc64. this is really hack

uh...make this build on the sparc again...or something. i've had
to pull a few #define's from the sparc64 include's into this file,
renamed so that they don't break the sparc64. this is really hacky,
and should be fixed somehow. if the sparc is going to know about
32bit sparc64 kernels, the information necessary to get this needs
to exist somewhere for it to grab, not for duplication :(

Need to be able to handle sparc64 executables as well.

Use pread(2) and pwrite(2) rather than lseek(2)/{read,write}(2).

No need for autoconf.h

remove obsolete register declarations

clean WARNS on the sparc.

The `cpu_kcore' header has changed allowing libkvm to be independent of
the kernel's link address (KERNBASE).
