Sample output:

machdep.smap: 
SMAP type=01, xattr=00, base=0000000000000000, len=000000000009d800
SMAP type=02, xattr=00, base=000000000009d800, len=0000000000002800
SMAP type=02, xattr=00, base=00000000000e0000, len=0000000000020000
SMAP type=01, xattr=00, base=0000000000100000, len=00000000ba89f000
SMAP type=02, xattr=00, base=00000000ba99f000, len=0000000000500000
SMAP type=04, xattr=00, base=00000000bae9f000, len=0000000000100000
SMAP type=03, xattr=00, base=00000000baf9f000, len=0000000000060000
...

I also have a sysctl for amd64 to export the UEFI memory map blob as well, but 
haven't written the parsing bits for sysctl(8) yet.  (And I don't currently 
have a system set up with UEFI booting to test it.)
