The VGA "text mode" buffer has a pair of bytes for each character: One
byte for the character symbol, and an "attribute" byte encoding the
foreground and background colours. When updating the screen, we were
writing these two bytes separately.
On some virtualized systems, every write results in a glyph being redrawn
into a (graphical) virtual screen; writing these two bytes separately
results in twice as much work being done to draw characters, whereas if
we perform a single 16-bit write instead, the character only needs to be
redrawn once.
On an EC2 c5.4xlarge instance, this change cuts 1.30s from the kernel boot,
speeding it up from 8.90s to 7.60s.

is defined in sys/socket.h where it's defined as 28.
A bit of trivia: On NetBSD AF_INET6 is defined as 24. On Solaris it is
defined as 26. This is probably why Darren defaulted to 26, because
ipfilter was originally written for SunOS 4 and Solaris many moons ago.

The abidump routine output an ABI tag when -A was specified for records
that were not displayed due to type or pid filtering. To fix, split
the code to lookup the ABI from the code to display the ABI, move the
code to display the ABI into dumpheader(), and move dumpheader() later
in the main loop as a simplification. Previously dumpheader() was
called under a condition that repeated conditions made later in the
main loop.

The <sys/cdefs.h> and <stdatomic.h> headers already included support for
C11 atomics via intrinsincs in modern versions of GCC, but these versions
tried to "hide" atomic variables inside a wrapper structure. This wrapper
is not compatible with GCC's internal <stdatomic.h> header, so that if
GCC's <stdatomic.h> was used together with <sys/cdefs.h>, use of C11
atomics would fail to compile. Fix this by not hiding atomic variables
in a structure for modern versions of GCC. The headers already avoid
using a wrapper structure on clang.
Note that this wrapper was only used if C11 was not enabled (e.g.
via -std=c99), so this also fixes compile failures if a modern version
of GCC was used with -std=c11 but with FreeBSD's <stdatomic.h> instead
of GCC's <stdatomic.h> and this change fixes that case as well.

a smaller number of larger TRIM requests. The hope had been to have
the full TRIM consolodation in place for 12.0, but the algorithms
are still under development and need further testing. With this
framework in place it will be possible to easily add TRIM consolodation
once the optimal strategy has been found.
The only functional change with this patch is the elimination of TRIM
requests for blocks that are freed before they have been likely to
have been written.

Currently, the per-queue limit is a function of the receive buffer
size and the MSS. In certain cases (such as connections with large
receive buffers), the per-queue segment limit can be quite large.
Because we process segments as a linked list, large queues may not
perform acceptably.
The better long-term solution is to make the queue more efficient.
But, in the short-term, we can provide a way for a system
administrator to set the maximum queue size.
We set the default queue limit to 100. This is an effort to balance
performance with a sane resource limit. Depending on their
environment, goals, etc., an administrator may choose to modify this
limit in either direction.

When booting via EFI on arm we have no way to know the dtb file to load
and we always use the one provided from the bootloader.
This works in most case but :
U-Boot have some really old DTB for some boards, the sync from Linux isn't done automatically for all boards
Some boards (like TI BeagleBone series) use one u-boot for all the model and it doesn't embed the DTBs
Some boards (like IMX6 based ones), don't embed the DTB
We want u-boot to load and patch the DTB with the mac address or the display
node enabled or not.

The main dhclient process is Capsicumized but also chroots to
restrict filesystem access. With r322369, pidfile(3) maintains a
directory descriptor for the pidfile, which can cause the chroot
to fail in certain cases. To minimize the problem, only chroot
if we fail to enter capability mode, and store dhclient pidfiles
in a subdirectory of /var/run, thus restricting access via
pidfile(3)'s directory descriptor.

Add support for H5 SoC.
Fix the bindings, we used to have non-upstreamed bindings. Switch to the
one that have been sent upstream. They are not stable yet, so we switch
from custom, wrong, bindings to correct, proposed bindings
Rework aw_sid so it can work with the nvmem interface.
Each SoC expose a set of fuses (for now rootkey/boardid and, if available,
the thermal calibration data). A fuse can be private or public, reading private
fuse needs to be done via some registers instead of reading directly.
Each fuse is exposed as a sysctl.
For now leave the possibility for a driver to read any fuse without using
the nvmem interface as the awg and emac driver use this to generate a mac
address.
Other architectures are documented in terms of the name that is displayed by
'uname -p', aka MACHINE_ARCH and TARGET_ARCH in the build system, now
aarch64 matches the rest of them.

At least on x86, fhandle_t is a packed structure, so I believe an
assignment will copy all the bits. However, for some current/future
architectures, there might be padding in the structure that doesn't get
copied via an assignment.
Since NFS assumes a file handle is an opaque blob of bits that can be
compared via memcmp()/bcmp(), all the bits including any padding must be
copied.
This patch replaces the assignments with a call to a byte copy function.
Spotted during code inspection.
Since bd_open() does early increment for reference counter and bcache
allocation, it also should undo those in case of the error.
Also remove unused variables rdev, g_err.
On a FreeNAS mini XL, with geli encrypted drives the loader crashed in
geli_read().
When we iterate over the list of disks and allocate the zfsdsk structures we
don’t zero out the gdev pointer. In one case that resulted in geli_read()
(called on the bogus pointer) dividing by zero.
Use calloc() to ensure the zfsdsk structure is always zeroed, so the pointer is
initialised to NULL. As a side benefit it gets rid of one #ifdef

The only old clock now is the gmac clock which still lives under the /clocks

Contrary to the removed comment, the kernel does appear to use the timezone

is just stale.
