6f78fad3b1 Retire vxge(4).
This driver was merged to HEAD one week prior to Exar publicly announcing they
had left the Ethernet market. It is not known to be used and has various code
quality issues spotted by Brooks and Hiren. Retire it in preparation for
FreeBSD 12.0.

ba3833a8c4 Point out that the tzdata 2018e update brings in negative DST for certain time
zones.  This does not affect the vast majority of users who do not care about
(or even know about) the tm_isdst flag but may be slightly surprising to those
with a more specialised interest in time zone arcana.

3a4fc8a8a1 Remove support for the Arcnet protocol.
While Arcnet has some continued deployment in industrial controls, the
lack of drivers for any of the PCI, USB, or PCIe NICs on the market
suggests such users aren't running FreeBSD.

Evidence in the PR database suggests that the cm(4) driver (our sole
Arcnet NIC) was broken in 5.0 and has not worked since.

8129693e78 Let syslog(3) use RFC 5424.
With r332099 changing syslogd(8) to parse RFC 5424 formatted syslog
messages, go ahead and also change the syslog(3) libc function to
generate them. Compared to RFC 3164, RFC 5424 has various advantages,
such as sub-second precision for log entry timestamps.

As this change could have adverse effects when not updating syslogd(8)
or using a different system logging daemon, add a notice to UPDATING and
increase __FreeBSD_version.

d3cf0e0c00 Add note to UPDATING about UEFI changes requiring loader(8) update
These problems have only been observed with boards using U-Boot (e.g. ARM)
where virtual addresses are already set in the memory map by the firmware
and the firmware is expecting a call to SetVirtualAddressMap to be made.
I refrain from mentioning this in the note because this could also be the
case on some not-yet-tested firmware on amd64 and it's not a bad
recommendation for the general case.

7cafeaa1fd Add Lua as a scripting langauge to /boot/loader
liblua glues the lua run time into the boot loader. It implements all
the runtime routines that lua expects. In addition, it has a few
standard 'C' headers that nueter various aspects of the LUA build that
are too specific to lua to be in libsa. Many refinements from the
original code to improve implementation and the number of included lua
libraries. Use int64_t for lua_Number. Have "/boot/lua" be the default
module path. Numerous cleanups from the original GSoC project,
including hacking libsa to allow lua to be built with only one change
outside luaconf.h.

Add the final bit of lua glue to bring in liblua and plug into the
multiple interpreter framework, previously committed.

Add LOADER_LUA option, currently off by default.

Presently, this is an experimental option. One must opt-in to using
this by defining WITH_LOADER_LUA and WITHOUT_FORTH. It's been
lightly tested, so keep a backup copy of your old loader handy.
The menu code, coming in the next commit, hasn't been exhaustively
tested. A LUA boot loader is 60k larger than a FORTH one, which is
80k larger than a no-interpreter one. Subtle changes in size
may tip things past some subtle limit (the binary is ~430k now
when built with LUA). A future version may offer coexistance.

Bump FreeBSD version to 1200058 to mark the milestone.

Zakary Nafziger and Wojciech A. Koszek also contributed. Warner Losh
reworked it extensively into its current form.

fd3bb7aa46 Disabled the use of flowid for lagg by default
Disabled the use of RSS hash from the network card aka flowid for
lagg(4) interfaces by default as it's currently incompatible with
the lacp and loadbalance protocols.

The incompatibility is due to the fact that the flowid isn't know
for the first packet of a new outbound stream which can result in
the hash calculation method changing and hence a stream being
incorrectly split across multiple interfaces during normal
operation.

This can be re-enabled by setting the following in loader.conf:
net.link.lagg.default_use_flowid="1"

615a1e70b0 Enable AUTO_OBJ by default if the OBJDIR is writable, only for in-tree builds.
This can be disabled by putting WITHOUT_AUTO_OBJ=yes in /etc/src-env.conf, not
/etc/src.conf, or passing it in the environment.

The purpose of this rather than simply flipping the default of AUTO_OBJ to yes
is to avoid hassling users with auto.obj.mk failures if the wanted OBJDIR is
not writable. It will fallback to writing to the source directory like it does
today if MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX is not writable.

The act of enabling MK_AUTO_OBJ disables all 'make obj' treewalks since
previous work has made those not run if MK_AUTO_OBJ==yes in Makefile.inc1.

This changes the build OBJDIR from the older style of /usr/obj/<srcdir> for

a new simpler format of /usr/obj/<srcdir>/<target>.<target_arch>.  This
new format is used regardless of cross or native build.  It allows
easier management of multiple source tree object directories.

5ab191c42b Forward compatibility for ino64.
Add forward compatibility so that new binaries can run on old
kernels. If the new system call from ino64 isn't available on your
system, then the old one will be used and the results translated.  The
stat and statfs families of functions are fully emulated. While not
required by policy, in this case it is helpful to our users to provide
this compatibility. In this case, it allows rollback of the kernel
after installing a new userland should a problem be discovered. It
also prevents foot-shooting if a user does an install before rebooting
with the new kernel. Finally, it allows the use case where one needs
to run new binaries on an old kernel as part of an upgrade process.

The getdirentries family uses tricks that may not work on remote
filesystems. Specifically, it uses a buffer 1/4 the size requested to
get the data from he old syscall.

The code carefully uses direct syscalls for old system calls to avoid
referencing freebsd11_* symbols, which contaminate ld-elf.so.1's
export table due to its use of stat functions, which causes errno to
be incorrect in client programs due to the wrong *stat* function being
resolved in some cases.

This code should removed sometime after 12 is branched.

Tested on: 12-current binaries on a 10.3-beta kernel run and return
       consistent results. 12-current kernel and userland with
       packages from before ino64 was committed also work.

The BSDL dtc has grown the needed features (overlays mostly) and is able to
compile all of our base DTS.
You can use WITH_GPL_DTC is you need the GPL one or DTC= in make.conf(5)
to specify an alternate location for the compiler to use.

Also remove checknr(1) and colcrt(1) which are only useful with groff.

bb2a5bfade UPDATING: ino64 upgrade should include COMPAT_FREEBSD11
The upgrade process requires COMPAT_FREEBSD11 to support the combination
of "old" userland and "new" kernel that exists after "make kernel" and
reboot.  Mention this explicitly for those using custom kernel configs.
Once the "new" world is installed the COMPAT_FREEBSD11 could be removed
again, but that does not seem necessary to mention in UPDATING.

b149eba475 Add note to UPDATING for ino64 to follow the standard upgrade process
The existing upgrade process documented in UPDATING is both necessary
and sufficient for upgrading across the ino64 change.  However, the
shortcut of installing both kernel + world before a single reboot has
been possible for quite some time, and several developers and users
were surprised by fallout from ino64.  Add an explicit entry pointing
out that the full process must be followed.

1bf5e133cb do not require binutils port when using lld as ld
r279908 added logic to Makefile.inc1 to automatically set
CROSS_BINUTILS_PREFIX for architectures not supported by the in-tree
binutils: arm64 when first introduced, and later riscv64 as well.

LLVM's LLD linker is now included in the base system, and is enabled by
default for arm64 and capable of linking world and kernel. Thus, avoid
automatically setting CROSS_BINUTILS_PREFIX and requiring the binutils
port if WITH_LLD_IS_LD is true.

4d806fc663 Allow explicitly assigned IPv6 loopback address to be used in jails
If a jail has an explicitly assigned IPv6 loopback address then allow it
to be used instead of remapping requests for the loopback adddress to the
first IPv6 address assigned to the jail.

This fixes issues where applications attempt to detect their bound port
where they requested a loopback address, which was available, but instead
the kernel remapped it to the jails first address.

This is the same fix applied to IPv4 fix by: r316313

This fixes issues where applications attempt to detect their bound port

A example of this is binding nginx to 127.0.0.1 and then running "service
