The ADC has a 12bit resolution and its raw output can be read via sysctl(8)
interface.
The driver allows the setup of ADC clock, samples average and open delay
(the number of clock cycles to wait before start the conversion).
The TSC_ADC module is set in the general purpose mode (no touchscreen
support).
Tested on Beaglebone-black.
Written based on AM335x TRM.

As a prerequisite for multiple queues, the guest must have MSIX enabled.
Unfortunately, to work around device passthrough bugs, FreeBSD disables
MSIX when running as a VMWare guest due to the hw.pci.honor_msi_blacklist
tunable; this tunable must be disabled for multiple queues.
Also included is various minor changes from the projects/vmxnet branch.

AppleTalk was a network transport protocol for Apple Macintosh devices
in 80s and then 90s. Starting with Mac OS X in 2000 the AppleTalk was
a legacy protocol and primary networking protocol is TCP/IP. The last
Mac OS X release to support AppleTalk happened in 2009. The same year
routing equipment vendors (namely Cisco) end their support.
Thus, AppleTalk won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.
IPX was a network transport protocol in Novell's NetWare network operating
system from late 80s and then 90s. The NetWare itself switched to TCP/IP
as default transport in 1998. Later, in this century the Novell Open
Enterprise Server became successor of Novell NetWare. The last release
that claimed to still support IPX was OES 2 in 2007. Routing equipment
vendors (e.g. Cisco) discontinued support for IPX in 2011.
Thus, IPX won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.
for FreeBSD standards. Very little, if any, content was
modified.
These are not yet linked to the build.

- Support for double-tap and drag.
- Support for 2-finger horizontal scrolling which translates to page-back/forward events.
- Single finger tap is equivalent to a left-button press.
- Two-finger taps are mapped to the right-button click.
- Three fingers are mapped to middle button.
- Add sysctl to disable single finger tapping.
- Fix for multiple open of /dev/atp0
- Enhanced support for the Fountain/Geyser family by adding Geyser4.
- Update manual page.

gpioled(4).
Tested on RPi and BBB (using the hardware I2C controller and gpioiic(4) for
the I2C tests). It was also verified for regressions on RSPRO (MIPS/ar71xx)
used as reference for a non OFW-based system.
Update the gpioled(4) and gpioiic(4) man pages with some details and
examples about the FDT/OFW support.
Some compatibility details pointed out by imp@ will follow in subsequent
commits.

allow mrsas(4) from LSI to attach to newer LSI cards that are support by
mrsas(4). If mrsas(4) is not loaded into the system at boot then mfi(4)
will always attach. If a modified mrsas(4) is loaded in the system. That
modification is return "-30" in it's probe since that is between
BUS_PROBE_DEFAULT and BUS_PROBE_LOW_PRIORITY.
This option is controller by a new probe flag "MFI_FLAGS_MRSAS" in mfi_ident
that denotes cards that should work with mrsas(4). New entries that should
have this option.
This is the first step to get mrsas(4) checked into FreeBSD and to avoid
collision with people that use mrsas(4) from LSI. Since mfi(4) takes
priority, then mrsas(4) users need to rebuild GENERIC. Using the
.disabled="1" method doesn't work since that blocks attaching and the
probe gave it to mfi(4).

Most relevant features:
- netmap emulation on any NIC, even those without native netmap support.
On the ixgbe we have measured about 4Mpps/core/queue in this mode,
which is still a lot more than with sockets/bpf.
- seamless interconnection of VALE switch, NICs and host stack.
If you disable accelerations on your NIC (say em0)
ifconfig em0 -txcsum -txcsum
you can use the VALE switch to connect the NIC and the host stack:
vale-ctl -h valeXX:em0
allowing sharing the NIC with other netmap clients.
- THE USER API HAS SLIGHTLY CHANGED (head/cur/tail pointers
instead of pointers/count as before). This was unavoidable to support,
in the future, multiple threads operating on the same rings.
Netmap clients require very small source code changes to compile again.
On the plus side, the new API should be easier to understand
and the internals are a lot simpler.
The manual page has been updated extensively to reflect the current
features and give some examples.
This is the result of work of several people including Giuseppe Lettieri,
Vincenzo Maffione, Michio Honda and myself, and has been financially
supported by EU projects CHANGE and OPENLAB, from NetApp University
Research Fund, NEC, and of course the Universita` di Pisa.
