plain-vanilla ETH microcode. The QOS_VLAN firmware added support in microcode
for handling IEEE 802.1q tags, but the npe(4) driver did not actually
support the relevant signalling. As a result, it was impossible to use
VLANs with npe(4). Switching to the more basic microcode (same license)
removes the on-NIC promisisng and makes vlan(4) work on both NPE interfaces.

In addition to some small style fixes to the ARMv6 vDSO, this release
includes a new vDSO that can be used for the execution of ARMv6/ARMv7
code on 64-bit platforms.
Just like for i686 on x86-64, this new vDSO is responsible for padding
arguments and return values to 64-bit values, so that the kernel can
easily forward system calls to the native system calls.

The driver was printing out a lot of information upon failure, which
does not have to be interested for the user.
Changing logging level required to rebuild driver with proper flags. The
proper sysctl was added, so the level now can be changed dynamically
using bitmask.
Levels of printouts were adjusted to keep on mind end user instead of
debugging purposes.
More verbose messages were added to align the driver with the Linux.
Fix building error introduced by the r325506 by casting csum_flags to
uint64_t.

Compared to the previous version, v0.16, there are a couple of minor
changes:
- CLOUDABI_AT_PID: Process identifiers for CloudABI processes.
Initially, BSD process identifiers weren't exposed inside the runtime,
due to them being pretty much useless inside of a cluster computing
environment. When jobs are scheduled across systems, the BSD process
number doesn't act as an identifier. Even on individual systems they
may recycle relatively quickly.
With this change, the kernel will now generate a UUIDv4 when executing
a process. These UUIDs can be obtained within the process using
program_getpid(). Right now, FreeBSD will not attempt to store this
value. This should of course happen at some point in time, so that it
may be printed by administration tools.
- Removal of some unused structure members for polling.
With the polling framework being simplified/redesigned, it turns out
some of the structure fields were not used by the C library. We can
remove these to keep things nice and tidy.

The newest ena-com HAL supports LLQv2 and introduces
API changes. In order not to break the driver compilation
it was updated/fixed in a following way:
* Change version of the driver to 0.8.0
* Provide reset cause when triggering reset of the device
* Reset device after attach fails
* In the reset task free management irq after calling ena_down. Admin
queue can still be used before ena_down is called, or when it is
being handled
* Do not reset device if ena_reset_task fails
* Move call of the ena_com_dev_reset to the ena_down() routine - it
should be called only if interface was up
* Use different function for checking empty space on the sq ring
(ena-com API change)
* Fix typo on ENA_TX_CLEANUP_THRESHOLD
* Change checking for EPERM with EOPNOTSUPP - change in the ena-com API
* Minor style fixes

Rework the dTSEC and FMan drivers to be more like a full bus relationship,
so that dtsec can use bus_alloc_resource() instead of trying to handle the
offset from the dts. This required taking some code from the sparc64 ebus
driver to allow subdividing the fman region for the dTSEC devices.
This adds some support for ARM as well as 64-bit. 64-bit on PowerPC is
currently not working, and ARM support has not been completed or tested on the
FreeBSD side.
As this was imported from a Linux tree, it includes some Linux-isms
(ioread/iowrite), so compile with the LinuxKPI for now. This may change in the
future.
In rS323851, some casts were adjusted in calls to nvlist_next() and
nvlist_get_pararr() in order to make scan-build happy. I think these changes
just confused scan-build into not reporting the strict-aliasing violation.
For example, nvlist_xdescriptors() is causing nvlist_next() to write to its
local variable nvp of type nvpair_t * using the lvalue *cookiep of type
void *, which is not allowed. Given the APIs of nvlist_next(),
nvlist_get_parent() and nvlist_get_pararr(), one possible fix is to create a
local void *cookie in nvlist_xdescriptors() and other places, and to convert
the value to nvpair_t * when necessary. This patch implements that fix.

The most important change in this release is the removal of the
poll_fd() system call; CloudABI's equivalent of kevent(). Though I think
that kqueue is a lot saner than many of its alternatives, our
experience is that emulating this system call on other systems
accurately isn't easy. It has become a complex API, even though I'm not
convinced this complexity is needed. This is why we've decided to take a
different approach, by looking one layer up.
We're currently adding an event loop to CloudABI's C library that is API
compatible with libuv (except when incompatible with Capsicum).
Initially, this event loop will be built on top of plain inefficient
poll() calls. Only after this is finished, we'll work our way backwards
and design a new set of system calls to optimize it.
Interesting challenges will include integrating asynchronous I/O into
such a system call API. libuv currently doesn't aio(4) on Linux/BSD, due
to it being unreliable and having undesired semantics.

to 'fail' on error it was treated as success, because nvp!=NULL. Fix this
by not handling success under 'fail' label and by using separate variable
for parent nvpair.
If we succeeded to allocate nvlist, but failed to allocated nvpair we
would leak nvls[ii] on return. Destroy it when we cannot allocate nvpair,
before we goto fail.

Now that CloudABI's sockets API has been changed to be addressless and
only connected socket instances are used (e.g., socket pairs), they have
become fairly similar to pipes. The only differences on CloudABI is that
socket pairs additionally support shutdown(), send() and recv().
To simplify the ABI, we've therefore decided to remove pipes as a
separate file descriptor type and just let pipe() return a socket pair
of type SOCK_STREAM. S_ISFIFO() and S_ISSOCK() are now defined
identically.
Now that all of the packaged software has been adjusted to either use
Flower (https://github.com/NuxiNL/flower) for making incoming/outgoing
network connections or can have connections injected, there is no longer
need to keep accept() around. It is now a lot easier to write networked
services that are address family independent, dual-stack, testable, etc.
Remove all of the bits related to accept(), but also to
getsockopt(SO_ACCEPTCONN).
