265941,265951,266390,266550,266910:
Various bhyve fixes:
- Don't save host's return address in 'struct vmxctx'.
- Permit non-32-bit accesses to local APIC registers.
- Factor out common ioport handler code.
- Use calloc() in favor of malloc + memset.
- Change the vlapic timer frequency to be in the ballpark of contemporary
hardware.
- Allow the guest to read the TSC via MSR 0x10.
- A VMCS is always inactive when it exits the vmx_run() loop. Remove
redundant code and the misleading comment that suggest otherwise.
- Ignore writes to microcode update MSR. This MSR is accessed by RHEL7
guest.
Add KTR tracepoints to annotate wrmsr and rdmsr VM exits.
- Provide an alias for the userboot console and name it 'comconsole'.
- Use EV_ADD to create an mevent and EV_ENABLE to enable it.
- abort(3) the process in response to a VMEXIT_ABORT.
- Don't include the guest memory segments in the bhyve(8) process core dump.
- Make the vmx asm code dtrace-fbt-friendly.
- Allow vmx_getdesc() and vmx_setdesc() to be called for a vcpu that is in
the VCPU_RUNNING state.
- Enable VMX in the IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL MSR if it not enabled and the MSR
isn't locked.


# 261090 23-Jan-2014 jhb

MFC 259826,259997,259998:
Support soft power-off via the ACPI S5 state for bhyve guests and wire
up a virtual power button to SIGTERM:
- Implement the PM1_EVT and PM1_CTL registers required by ACPI.
- Emulate the Reset Control register at I/O port 0xcf9.
- Advertise an _S5 package.
- Implement an SMI_CMD register with commands to enable and disable ACPI.
Currently the only change when ACPI is enabled is to enable the virtual
power button via SIGTERM.
- Implement a fixed-feature power button when ACPI is enabled by asserting
PWRBTN_STS in PM1_EVT when SIGTERM is received.
- Add support for EVFILT_SIGNAL events to mevent.
- Implement support for the ACPI system command interrupt (SCI) and assert
it when needed based on the values in PM1_EVT. Mark the SCI as active-low
and level triggered in the MADT and MP Table.

r257933,r258609,r258614,r258668,r258673,r258855

Pull in some minor bugfixes and functionality enhancements
from CURRENT. These are candidates to be moved to 10.0-release.

r258855
mdoc: quote string properly.

r258673
Don't create an initial value for the host filesystem of "/".

r258668
Allow bhyve and bhyveload to attach to tty devices.

r258614
The 22-bit Data Byte Count (DBC) field of a Physical Region Descriptor was
being read as a 32-bit quantity by the bhyve AHCI driver.

r258609
Fix discrepancy between the IOAPIC ID advertised by firmware tables and the
actual value read by the guest.

r257933
Route the legacy timer interrupt (IRQ0) to pin 2 of the IOAPIC.

r257767
Fix an off-by-one error when iterating over the emulated PCI BARs.

r257729
Add the VM name to the process name with setproctitle().

r257423
Make the virtual ioapic available unconditionally in a bhyve virtual machine.

r257347
Update copyright to include the author of the LPC bridge emulation code.

hand-merge r257018
Tidy usage messages for bhyve and bhyveload.

r256657
Add an option to bhyveload(8) that allows setting a loader environment variable
from the command line.
