Allow DSP basename cloning to be disabled or enabled at boot and
runtime. This is useful when implementing OSS sound stacks in
userspace via libcuse for example.

Currently there is no easy way to specify net.isr.maxthreads = all cpus. We need
to specify exact number of cpus in loader.conf which get annoying when you have
mix of machines which don't have equal number of total cpus. I propose "-1" as
that value. When loader.conf has net.isr.maxthreads = -1, netisr will use all
available cpus.
Adjust PROF_ARTIFICIAL_FRAMES in the DTrace profile provider on ARM to
skip 10, rather than 9, frames. This appears to work quite well in
practice on the BeagleBone Black, so remove a comment about the value
being bogus and replace it with a slightly less negative one. However,
the number of frames to skip is quite sensitive to details of the timer
and interrupt handling paths, so this is necessarily fragile -- but no
more so than on x86.
o Properly init prevtime, so that we don't print bogus value in the
first entry reported by the relative mode (-R).
o Properly print negative offsets, which I guess may happen if
records get re-ordered somehow, possibly due to the locking. Right
now we report huge bogus diff (i.e. 2 seconds or so).
MAXBSIZE defines both the largest UFS block size and the
largest size for a buffer in the buffer cache. This patch
defines a new constant MAXBCACHEBUF, which is the largest
size for a buffer in the buffer cache. Having a separate
constant allows MAXBCACHEBUF to be set larger than MAXBSIZE
on a per-architecture basis, so that NFS can do larger read/writes
for these architectures. It modifies sys/param.h so that BKVASIZE
can also be set on a per-architecture basis.
A couple of cases where NFS used MAXBSIZE instead of NFS_MAXBSIZE
is fixed as well.
Attempt to connect to alternate addresses if the connect doesn't
succeed in 180ms, and cut wait time between connection attempts
in half for each additional, if no connection was established.
Take the first connection to succeed and close the others.
This makes whois more responsive when e.g. IPv6 service took long
time or fail to respond.

Limit the number of cylinder groups that will be searched when
trying to build a cluster. The limit is tunable using the sysctl
vfs.ffs.maxclustersearch. The current limit is 10 cylinder groups
per block allocation. It was previously limited to the number of
cylinder groups in the filesystem per block allocation. When there
were no clusters of the needed size left, it repeatedly searched
the whole filesystem for a non-existent cluster on every block
allocation. The result was very slow filesystem allocation with
100% CPU utilization. The old behavior can be had by setting
vfs.ffs.maxclustersearch to a huge number (1,000,000).
This change affects only the layout policy routines so is not able
to interfere with the integrity of the filesystem.
Use correct length for sparse uiomove(). It must be the clipped to
the page size, len is the total transfer length, which may be larger

gcc 4.9 added support for new alignment attribute alloc_align:
The alloc_align attribute is used to tell the compiler that the function
return value points to memory, where the returned pointer minimum
alignment is given by one of the functions parameters. GCC uses this
information to improve pointer alignment analysis.
vt_is_cursor_in_area needs to return true if any part of the mouse

Revert r281451. It causes a panic/hang early in boot for a number of
users, myself included. The original code is likely papering over a
larger bug that needs to be explored, but for now get things back to
a working state.

Watchdog drivers need to support rearming the watchdog in contexts which
are not permitted to sleep. Only use the IPMI watchdog with backends
which poll driver-initiated requests to meet this requirement.
In practice this means that watchdogs will no longer be used on systems
that use the SSIF backend.
Rename the kld for oce(4) to if_oce.ko. ifconfig(8) has special knowledge
about kld filenames for network drivers that requires them to follow the
pattern of if_<foo>. This also fixes the existing documentation in the
manpage which says to use if_oce_load=YES in loader.conf.
Update this driver to not save copies of registers that are no longer used
after r281874. While here, also update it to always write the parent's
PCI bus number to the primary bus register.
Small changes to locale-related man pages.
Fix a missing .h and change the recommended include for the POSIX2008 functions from xlocale.h to locale.h. Including xlocale.h is for legacy / Darwin compatibility so should not be encouraged.
It would previously call into some unfinished Solaris compatibility code and
return without actually calling panic(9). The compatibility code is
unneeded, however, so just remove it and have dtrace_panic() call vpanic(9)
directly.
Don't propagate SIOCSIFCAPS from a vlan(4) to its parent. This leads to
quite unexpected result of toggling capabilities on the neighbour vlan(4)
interfaces.
Create the arm64/aarch64 VM disk image as MBR instead of
GPT scheme. UEFI needs to know the unique partition GUID
with GPT, which changes each time. Specifically, the QEMU
EFI BIOS file has this hard-coded.[1]
Since the GPT labels are now unavailable, unconditionally
label the root filesystem as 'rootfs' with newfs(8), since
it does not hurt anything anywhere else. For the arm64 case,
'/' is mounted from /dev/ufs/rootfs; for all other VM images,
'/' is mounted from /dev/gpt/rootfs.
Unfortunately, since the /dev/gpt/swapfs label is also lost,
set NOSWAP=1 for the arm64/aarch64 images. This is temporary,
until I figure out a scalable solution to this. But, a certain
piece of softare was written "very fast", and ended up living
for 15 years. We can deal with this for a week or so.

Update the pci_cfg_save/restore routines to operate on bridge devices
(type 1 and type 2) as well as leaf devices (type 0). In particular,
this allows the existing PCI bus logic to save and restore capability
registers such as MSI and PCI-express work for bridge devices rather than
requiring that code to be duplicated in bridge drivers. It also means
that bridge drivers no longer need to save and restore basic registers
such as the PCI command register or BARs nor manage powerstates for the
bridge device.
While here, pci_setup_secbus() has been changed to initialize the 'sec'
and 'sub' fields in the 'secbus' structure instead of requiring the pcib
and pccbb drivers to do this in the NEW_PCIB + PCI_RES_BUS case.
Don't explicitly manage power states for PCI-PCI bridge devices in the
driver's suspend and resume routines. These have been redundant no-ops
since r214065 changed the PCI bus driver to manage power states for
all devices (including type 1/2 bridge devices) during suspend and resume.
The minimim grant and maximum latency PCI config registers are only valid
for type 0 devices, not type 1 or 2 bridges. Don't read them for bridge
devices during bus scans and return an error when attempting to read them
as ivars for bridge devices.
Add definition for the argument_with_type_tag attribute.
This attribute originates in clang and brings support for checking types
of variadic functions' arguments for functions like fcntl() and ioctl().
Unfortunately lint(1) will complain about them: in particular as one of
the parameters is the function being tagged. For now define this attribute
in the lint-sensitive section.
Make AIO to not allocate pbufs for unmapped I/O like r281825.
While there, make few more performance optimizations.
On 40-core system doing many 512-byte AIO reads from array of raw SSDs
this change removes lock congestions inside pbuf allocator and devfs,
and bottleneck on single AIO completion taskqueue thread. It improves
peak AIO performance from ~600K to ~1.3M IOPS.
It is not network-specific code and would
be better as part of libkern instead.
