Ensure that single-frame aggregate session frames are retransmitted
with the correct configuration.
Occasionally an aggregate TX would fail and the first frame would be
retransmitted as a non-AMPDU frame. Since bfs_aggr=1 and bfs_nframes > 1
(from the previous AMPDU attempt), the aggr completion function would be
called and be very confused about what's going on.

For some reason, libc exports the symbol .cerror (HIDENAME(cerror)), albeit
in the FBSDprivate_1.0 version. It looks like there is no reason for this
since it is not used from other libraries. Given that it cannot be accessed
from C and its strange calling convention, it is rather unlikely that other
things rely on it. Perhaps it is from a time when symbols could not be
hidden.
Most of the amd64 assembler code jumps to .cerror using the GOT. It can jump
to it directly now, as in non-PIC mode.
There are also some minor size optimizations to instructions but they yield
virtually no benefit in the size of libc.so.7 due to padding.
Dynamically allocate the S/G lists passed to callback routines rather than
allocating them on the stack of various bus_dmamap_load*() functions. The
S/G lists are stored in the DMA tags. This matches the implementation on
all other platforms.
Remove NetBSD compat shims for drivers originally shared with NetBSD/pc98.
NetBSD/pc98 was never merged into the main NetBSD tree and is no longer
developed. Adding locking to these drivers would have made the compat
shims hard to impossible to maintain, so remove the shims to ease
future changes.
These changes were verified by md5. Some additional shims can be removed
that do affect the compiled results that I will probably do in another
round.
There is no need to release the pvh global lock around calls to
pmap_get_pv_entry(). In fact, some callers already held it around calls.
(In earlier versions, the same statements would apply to the page queues
lock.)
While I'm here tidy up the style of a few nearby statements and revise
some comments.
Add TRIM support, enabled by default.
Fix a bug installing components from a localPath.
Allow autosizing of any partition, not just the last partition.

Not exporting .cerror causes it to be jumped to directly instead of via the
PLT.
This change also takes advantage of .cerror's new status by not saving and
loading %ebx before jumping to it. (Therefore, .cerror now saves and loads
%ebx itself.) Where there was a conditional jump to a jump to .cerror, the
conditional jump has been changed to jump to .cerror directly (many modern
CPUs don't do static prediction and in any case it is not much of a benefit
anyway).
This change makes libc.so.7 a few kilobytes smaller.
Add #defines for the bits in the PCI Express SLOT registers. Names
have been chosen based on the bit names in the PCI Express Base
Specification 3.0, and to match the predominant style of the existing
bit definitions.
- Explicitly call twe_done() to poll the hardware when looping in
twe_start() to simulate the behavior on 4.x where the driver dropped
spl to allow interrupts to run to free up space in the command
queue. Be careful to only poll if we are going to make at least
one more attempt to queue the current command. Also, when polling,
be careful to not call twe_startio() to queue more commands to avoid
recursion.
- Move the buffer for formatting AEN messages into the softc instead of
using a single driver-wide static buffer.

Add support for new Intel on-CPU Bull Mountain random number
generator, found on IvyBridge and supposedly later CPUs, accessible
with RDRAND instruction.
From the Intel whitepapers and articles about Bull Mountain, it seems
that we do not need to perform post-processing of RDRAND results, like
AES-encryption of the data with random IV and keys, which was done for
Padlock. Intel claims that sanitization is performed in hardware.
Make both Padlock and Bull Mountain random generators support code
covered by kernel config options, for the benefit of people who prefer
minimal kernels. Also add the tunables to disable hardware generator
even if detected.
Rename {_,}pmap_unwire_pte_hold() to {_,}pmap_unwire_ptp() and update the
comment describing them. Both the function names and the comment had grown
stale. Quite some time has passed since these pmap implementations last
used the page's hold count to track the number of valid mapping within a
page table page. Also, returning TRUE from pmap_unwire_ptp() rather than
_pmap_unwire_ptp() eliminates a few instructions from callers like
pmap_enter_quick_locked() where pmap_unwire_ptp()'s return value is used
directly by a conditional statement.
* Rather than run the same 'ps' command twice, add 'kenv' which often
gives machine unique values from the firmware.
* The kernel is more likely to be unique than /bin/ls (but no need to
stuff many megabytes into /dev/random, so hash it).
* Change ordering to give larger variance across reboots to reduce
predictability.
Introduce new link-layer PFIL hook V_link_pfil_hook.
Merge ether_ipfw_chk() and part of bridge_pfil() into
unified ipfw_check_frame() function called by PFIL.
This change was suggested by rwatson? @ DevSummit.
Remove ipfw headers from ether/bridge code since they are unneeded now.
Note this thange introduce some (temporary) performance penalty since
PFIL read lock has to be acquired for every link-level packet.

1. Use install -d to create the entropy_dir if missing so that we can do it
all in one command, with no permissions race.
2. Simplify the rotation logic by cd'ing into the directory, with a test
to make sure that it succeeds.
3. Remove any files numbered higher than entropy_save_num. This helps when
the user reduces the number, and may be useful for other purposes down
the road.
4. Simplify the rotation logic by first testing the common case (it's a
regular file) then testing if something else exists with the same name
using elif. Also switch from using jot to simpler countdown format.
5. Fix logger lines and error messages to be more consistent, and wrap the
code more consistently in the 80 column range. The "not a regular file"
error message was mistakenly wrapped entirely in "quotes" which caused
logger to include line-wrapping whitespace. Change that to wrap only
the variables in quotes, which is both consistent and works better.
6. Update copyright to reflect the fact that changes were made this year.

- Move jenkins.h to jenkins_hash.c
- Provide missing function that can do hashing of arbitrary sized buffer.
- Refetch lookup3.c and do only minimal edits to it, so that diff between

- Add declarations for jenkins_hash(), jenkins_hash32() to sys/hash.h.
- Document these functions in hash(9)

Add kern.hintmode sysctl variable to show current state of hints:
0 - loader hints in environment only;
1 - static hints only
2 - fallback mode (Dynamic KENV with fallback to kernel environment)
Add kern.hintmode write handler, accept only value 2. That will switch
static KENV to dynamic. So it will be possible to change device hints.

Partially revert r239959, after actually fixing most of the clang
warnings in sys/gnu/fs/xfs. The only warnings that still need to be
suppressed are those about array bound overruns of flexible array
members in xfs_dir2_{block,sf}.c, which are too expensive (in terms of
cascading code changes) to fix.
In soreceive_generic() remove the optimization for the case when
MSG_WAITALL is set, and it is possible to do the entire receive
operation at once if we block (resid <= hiwat). Actually it might make
the recv(2) with MSG_WAITALL flag get stuck when there is enough space
in the receiver buffer to satisfy the request but not enough to open
the window closed previously due to the buffer being full.
The issue can be reproduced using the following scenario:
On the sender side do 2 send(2) requests:
1) data of size much smaller than SOBUF_SIZE (e.g. SOBUF_SIZE / 10);
2) data of size equal to SOBUF_SIZE.
On the receiver side do 2 recv(2) requests with MSG_WAITALL flag set:
1) recv() data of SOBUF_SIZE / 10 size;
2) recv() data of SOBUF_SIZE size;
We totally fill the receiver buffer with one SOBUF_SIZE/10 size request
and partial SOBUF_SIZE request. When the first request is processed we
get SOBUF_SIZE/10 free space. It is just enough to receive the rest of
bytes for the second request, and soreceive_generic() blocks in the
part that is a subject of this change waiting for the rest. But the
window was closed when the buffer was filled and to avoid silly window
syndrome it opens only when available space is larger than sb_hiwat/4
or maxseg. So it is stuck and pending data is only sent via TCP window
probes.
In soreceive_generic() when checking if the type of mbuf has changed
check it for MT_CONTROL type too, otherwise the assertion
"m->m_type == MT_DATA" below may be triggered by the following scenario:
- the sender sends some data (MT_DATA) and then a file descriptor
(MT_CONTROL);
- the receiver calls recv(2) with a MSG_WAITALL asking for data larger
than the receive buffer (uio_resid > hiwat).

AR5212 radar pulse fixes.
Fix the strong signal diversity capability setting - I had totally
messed up the indentation.
Set the default values to match what's in the .ini for now, rather than
what values I had previously gleaned from places. This seems to work
quite well for the early AR5212 NICs I have. Of course, later NICs
have different PHYs and the radar configuration is very card/board
dependent..
