The way these options work is by creating files that contain debugging
symbols and stashing them in a dedicated set. The minix-debug set has
been created for this purpose, but it will probably have to be refined
since it has been tested only with the default options with an i386
cross-build.
LSC: Amended to support many combination of MKDEBUG, MKDEBUGLIB, with
and without X11, for both intel and arm.

With this patch, the IPC service is changed to use the new RMIB
facility to register and handle the "kern.ipc" sysctl subtree itself.
The subtree was previously handled by the MIB service directly. This
change improves locality of handling: especially the
kern.ipc.sysvipc_info node has some peculiarities specific to the IPC
service and is therefore better handled there. Also, since the IPC
service is essentially optional to the system, this rearrangement
yields a cleaner situation when the IPC service is not running: in
that case, the MIB service will expose a few basic kern.ipc nodes
indicating that no SysV IPC facilities are present. Those nodes will
be overridden through RMIB when the IPC service is running.
It should be easier to add the remaining (from NetBSD) kern.ipc nodes
as well now.
Test88 is extended with a new subtest that verifies that sysctl-based
information retrieval for semaphore sets works as expected.

The kernel.ipc.sysvipc_info node is the gateway from NetBSD ipcs(1)
and ipcrm(1) to the IPC server, and thus necessary for a clean
import of these two utilities. The MIB service implementation uses
the preexisting (Linux-specific) information calls on the IPC server
to obtain the information.

Instead of pulling in process tables itself, ProcFS now queries the
MIB service for process information. This reduces ProcFS's memory
usage by about 1MB. The change does have two negative consequences.
First, getting all the original /proc/<pid>/psinfo fields filled in
would take a lot of extra effort. Since the only program that uses
those files at all is mtop(1), we reformat psinfo to expose only the
information used by mtop(1). This means that with this patch, older
copies of MINIX3 ps and top will cease to work.
Second, since both MIB and ProcFS update their own view of the
process list only once per clock tick, ProcFS' view may now be
outdated by up to two clock ticks. This is unlikely to pose a
problem in practice.

The new MIB service implements the sysctl(2) system call which, as
we adopt more NetBSD code, is an increasingly important part of the
operating system API. The system call is implemented in the new
service rather than as part of an existing service, because it will
eventually call into many other services in order to gather data,
similar to ProcFS. Since the sysctl(2) functionality is used even
by init(8), the MIB service is added to the boot image.
MIB stands for Management Information Base, and the MIB service
should be seen as a knowledge base of management information.
The MIB service implementation of the sysctl(2) interface is fairly
complete; it incorporates support for both static and dynamic nodes
and imitates many NetBSD-specific quirks expected by userland. The
patch also adds trace(1) support for the new system call, and adds
a new test, test87, which tests the fundamental operation of the
MIB service rather thoroughly.

This brings our tree to NetBSD 7.0, as found on -current on the
10-10-2015.
This updates:
- LLVM to 3.6.1
- GCC to GCC 5.1
- Replace minix/commands/zdump with usr.bin/zdump
- external/bsd/libelf has moved to /external/bsd/elftoolchain/
- Import ctwm
- Drop sprintf from libminc

This patch adds support for the wait4 system call, and with that the
wait3 call as well. The implementation is absolutely minimal: only
user and system times of the exited child are returned (with all other
rusage fields left zero), and there is no support for tracers. Still,
this should cover the main use cases of wait4.

Instead of importing an external _minix_kerninfo variable, any code
using the shared kernel page should now call get_minix_kerninfo(3).
Since this is the only logical name for such a function, rename the
previous get_minix_kerninfo call to ipc_minix_kerninfo.

Since the heap is reconstructed upon state transfer, the old malloc
state is discarded. In order to avoid state transfer errors, we can
and in fact must discard the internal state of the malloc
implementation. This patch achieves this by using the sectionify
pass to mark the variables in the libminc malloc object as state that
must be skipped during state transfer.

This change requires a small patch to libc, in order to avoid that
libminc has to pull in a large chunk of libc just for mktime(3).

. bitcode fixes
. switch to compiler-rt instead of netbsd libc functions
or libgcc for support functions for both x86 and arm
. minor build fixes
. allow build with llvm without crossbuilding llvm itself
. can now build minix/arm using llvm and eabi - without C++
support for now (hence crossbuilding llvm itself is turned off
for minix/arm)

- assert() is macro which is defined as empty, while panic is always
present. I added an explicit abort() after the macro to make sure the
function never returns in case of wrong flags.
- Fixed gcc build with -NDEBUG, -Os for ARM.
* A few 'may be used uninitialized' messages
* A few new missing support library functions where added in libminc.
