pfsync code is called for every new state, state update and state
deletion in pf. While pf itself can operate on multiple states at the
same time (on different cores, assuming the states hash to a different
hashrow), pfsync only had a single lock.
This greatly reduced throughput on multicore systems.
Address this by splitting the pfsync queues into buckets, based on the
state id. This ensures that updates for a given connection always end up
in the same bucket, which allows pfsync to still collapse multiple
updates into one, while allowing multiple cores to proceed at the same
time.
The number of buckets is tunable, but defaults to 2 x number of cpus.
Benchmarking has shown improvement, depending on hardware and setup, from ~30%
to ~100%.

We generally document shutdown(8) instead of reboot(8) as it's better for
interactive use.
In modern FreeBSD is matters a lot less, it's mostly just convention. One
minor thing is that shutdown(8) produces a global message, while reboot(8)
does not. It is believed that historically, some versions of reboot did not
do appropriate safe shutdown checks and just rebooted.
It's also just consistency: for example the handbook[1] documents shutdown.
There is actually another important difference between reboot and shutdown
-r now: reboot does not run /etc/rc.shutdown. This is because reboot has
its own shutdown procedure and does not signal init like init 6 and
shutdown -r now do (except in the case of rerooting via reboot -r).
A few years ago jilles@ proposed changing reboot's default to signalling
init (preserving reboot -q which just invokes the reboot system call), but
this was not accepted. Perhaps this can be tried again for 13.0.

The d_off field has been added to the dirent structure recently.
Currently filesystems don't support this feature. Support has been
added and tested for zfs, ufs, ext2fs, fdescfs, msdosfs and unionfs.
A stub implementation is available for cd9660, nandfs, udf and
pseudofs but hasn't been tested.
Motivation for this feature: our usecase is for a userspace nfs server
(nfs-ganesha) with zfs. At the moment we cache direntry offsets by
calling lseek once per entry, with this patch we can get the offset
directly from getdirentries(2) calls which provides a significant
speedup.

The linker's -z now flag sets the DF_BIND_NOW flag, which signals to the
runtime loader that all relocation processing should be performed at
process startup rather than on demand. In combination with lld's
default of enabling relro this causes the GOT to be made read-only when
the process starts, preventing straightforward GOT overwrite attacks.
Shawn Webb discovered a failure on HardenedBSD with BIND_NOW and ifunc
use, which resulted in my rtld fix in r340137. Add a BIND_NOW knob as
it is trivial to do so and is a useful ELF hardening feature. This
change is equivalent to HardenedBSD's but not identical as there are
other diffs/conflicts nearby.
Note that our ELF Tool Chain readelf does not currently decode the
DF_BIND_NOW flag - see PR232983.
