Revamp base system packaging of kernels to enable up/smp selection

2006-03-08T18:02:32+00:00

at runtime and to support distributing additional kernels:
o remove kernel from the base tarball
o add new kernel tarballs
o build + package both SMP and GENERIC kernels when an /conf/SMP
  config file is present
o add sysinstall support for multiple kernels
o update sysinstall to probe for the number of cpus on a system
  and auto-select smp/up kernel accordingly
o add a post-kernels install hook to fixup /boot/kernel
o add -ldevinfo to boot crunch for sysinstall's cpu probing logic

Notes:
1. On HEAD this code is not currently used because GENERIC kernels
   include SMP.  This work is mainly intended for RELENG_6 where the
   GENERIC kernel is UP.  If HEAD changes to match then just enable
   WITH_SMP in sysinstall/Makefile.
2. The cpu probing support is done with acpi and MPTable; this means
   some systems will require work for auto-detection to work.
3. The handling of /boot/kernel may need to be revisited; for now
   we rename one kernel at the last moment (SMP if installed, otherwise
   GENERIC).  There are other, possibly better, approaches.

Lots of help from ru, emaste, scottl, and jhb.

Provide 32-bit runtime support on amd64 as a separate distribution, lib32.
