Powercrypt and NetSec seem to be defunct (webpages point to link farms
and a google search yields no alternative). Remove the links but
keep the entries around for reference.

the kthread_create(9) man page to the kproc(9) page as it has migrated and
people looking for it may need a hand to find its new name.

This patch fixes two bugs in sglist(9) and improves robustness of the API via
better semantics if a request to append an address range to an existing list
fails.
- When cloning an sglist, properly set the length in the new sglist instead of
leaving the new list empty.
- Properly compute the amount of data added to an sglist via
_sglist_append_buf(). This allows sglist_consume_uio() to properly update
uio_resid.
- When a request to append an address range to a scatter/gather list fails,
restore the sglist to the state it had at the start of the function call
instead of resetting it to an empty list.

Rather than fix questionable ifnet list locking in the implementation of
the kern.polling.enable sysctl, remove the sysctl. It has been deprecated
since FreeBSD 6 in favour of per-ifnet polling flags.

Change the 'resid' parameter to sglist_consume_uio() from an int to a
size_t to match the recent type change of the uio_resid member of struct
uio.

Add support for backing up the old kernel when installing a new kernel
using freebsd-update. This applies to using freebsd-update in "upgrade
mode" and normal freebsd-update on a security branch.
The backup kernel will be written to /boot/kernel.old, if the directory
does not exist, or the directory was created by freebsd-update in a
previous backup. Otherwise freebsd-update will generate a new directory
name for use by the backup. By default symbol files are not backed up
to save diskspace and avoid filling up the root partition.
This feature is fully configurable in the freebsd-update config file,
but defaults to enabled.

Remove OpenSolaris taskq port (it performs very poorly in our kernel) and
replace it with wrappers around our taskqueue(9).
To make it possible implement taskqueue_member() function which returns 1
if the given thread was created by the given taskqueue.

things a bit:
- use dpcpu data to track the ifps with packets queued up,
- per-cpu locking and driver flags
- along with .nh_drainedcpu and NETISR_POLICY_CPU.
- Put the mbufs in flight reference count, preventing interfaces
from going away, under INVARIANTS as this is a general problem
of the stack and should be solved in if.c/netisr but still good
to verify the internal queuing logic.
- Permit changing the MTU to virtually everythinkg like we do for loopback.
Hook epair(4) up to the build.

loader, because it uses a reserved suffix (_type). Fix
this by removing the "_" and renaming the tunable to
hw.mxge.rss_hashtype. The old (rss_hash_type) tunable is
still fetched, in case people load the driver via scripts.
When both are present in the kernel environment,
the new value (hw.mxge.rss_hashtype) overrides the old
value.

Driver supports Serial ATA and ATAPI devices, Port Multipliers
(including FIS-based switching), hardware command queues (31 command
per port) and Native Command Queuing. This is probably the second on
popularity, after AHCI, type of SATA2 controllers, that benefits from
using CAM, because of hardware command queuing support.

compiled with stack protector.
Use libssp_nonshared library to pull __stack_chk_fail_local symbol into
each library that needs it instead of pulling it from libc. GCC
generates local calls to this function which result in absolute
relocations put into position-independent code segment, making dynamic
loader do extra work every time given shared library is being relocated
and making affected text pages non-shareable.
