Syslogd currently uses the RFC 3164 format for its log messages.One
limitation of RFC 3164 is that it cannot be used to log entries with
sub-second precision timestamps. One of our users has expressed a desire
for doing this for doing some basic performance measurements.
This change attempts to make a first cut at switching to RFC 5424 based
logging. The first step is to alter syslogd's input path to properly
parse such messages. It alters the logmsg() prototype to match the
fields of RFC 5424. The parsemsg() function is extended to parse both
RFC 3164 and 5424 messages and call into logmsg() accordingly.
Additional changes include:
- Introducing proper parsing of timestamps, so that they can be printed
in any desired output format. This means we need to infer the year and
timezone for RFC 3164 timestamps.
- Removing ISKERNEL. This can now be realised by simply providing an
APP-NAME (== "kernel").
- Extending RFC 3164 parsing to trim off the TAG prefix and using that
to derive APP-NAME and PROCID.
- Increase MAXLINE. RFC 5424 mentions we should support 2k messages.

When I implemented my EFI support I failed to check if the upstream version
of makefs in NetBSD had done the same. Override my version with theirs to
make it easier to stay in sync with them in the future.

r222319 in newfs raised the default blocksize for UFS/FFS filesystems
from 16K to 32K and the default fragment size from 2K to 4K, with a
rationale that most disks were now running with 4K sectors.

UEFI booting requires an EFI System Partition (ESP). On most storage devices
this will be in a specific partition type. To allow booting from CD/ISO
filesystems, UEFI will look for an ESP in the form of a FAT filesystem image
embedded in the image. Historically FreeBSD has added one of these to its
amd64 ISO images but marked it as simply another i386 boot image. Luckily for
us most UEFI implementations are rather forgiving and work this out for us.
This change adds the ability to mark a boot image as being a UEFI image. It
also modifies our ISO generation to use this marking for the UEFI image we
embed.

ConnectX-4/5 devices in mlx5core.
The dump is obtained by reading a predefined register map from the
non-destructive crspace, accessible by the vendor-specific PCIe
capability (VSC). The dump is stored in preallocated kernel memory and
managed by the mlx5tool(8), which communicates with the driver using a
character device node.
The utility allows to store the dump in format
<address> <value>
into a file, to reset the dump content, and to manually initiate the
dump.
A call to mlx5_fwdump() should be added at the places where a dump
must be fetched automatically. The most likely place is right before a
firmware reset request.

Two PRs (152084 & 210187) request allowing the "@" and/or "!"
characters in the passwd file GECOS field. The man page for pw does
not mention that those characters are disallowed, Linux supports those
characters in this field, and the "@" character in particular would be
useful for storing email addresses in that field.

* Get media status
* Get additional ifaddr info in a convenient struct
* Get vhids

* Iterate over all interfaces and ifaddrs
And add more examples, too.
Note that this is a backwards-incompatible change. But that's ok, because it's

Detect ancient GCC specifically, rather than using target architecture as a
crude heuristic.
Side note: compilers should really ignore -Wno- and -Wno-error= flags they
don't recognize. Seems like modern compilers produce warnings instead of
errors. Though, with -Werror they turn into errors. Clang's error can be
disabled with -Wno-error=unknown-warning-option, but GCC doesn't seem to
have a named method to disable the specific warning.
