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.
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.

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.

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.

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.

* 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.
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.

already present in sys/conf/NOTES).
- Remove duplicate mwl(4) entries from {amd64,i386}/conf/NOTES.
- While here, add a description to the sfxge line in amd64/conf/NOTES.

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.

- Refetch lookup3.c and do only minimal edits to it, so that diff between
our jenkins_hash.c and lookup3.c is minimal.
- Add declarations for jenkins_hash(), jenkins_hash32() to sys/hash.h.
- Document these functions in hash(9)
