make the ARM EABI the default ABI on arm, armeb, armv6 and armv6eb.
This is intended to be the default ABI from now on with the old ABI to be
retired. Because of this all users are strongly suggested to upgrade to the
ARM EABI.
As the two ABIs are incompatible it is unlikely upgrading in place will
work. Users should perform a full backup and either use an external machine
to upgrade, or install to an alternative location on their media. They
should also reinstall all ports or packages when these are available.
The only known issues are:
- pkg incorrectly detects the ABI. This is fixed upstream, and will a
patch will be made to the port.
- GDB can have issues with executables built with clang.

algorithm, which is based on the 2011 v0.1 patch release and described in the
paper "Revisiting TCP Congestion Control using Delay Gradients" by David Hayes
and Grenville Armitage. It is implemented as a kernel module compatible with the
modular congestion control framework.
CDG is a hybrid congestion control algorithm which reacts to both packet loss
and inferred queuing delay. It attempts to operate as a delay-based algorithm
where possible, but utilises heuristics to detect loss-based TCP cross traffic
and will compete effectively as required. CDG is therefore incrementally
deployable and suitable for use on shared networks.

- Reconnect with some minor modifications, in particular now selsocket()
internals are adapted to use sbintime units after recent'ish calloutng
switch.
some general word-smithing.
- Don't claim that adaptive mutexes have a timeout (they don't).
- Don't treat pool mutexes as a separate primitive in a few places.
- Describe sleepable read-mostly locks as a separate lock type and add
them to the various tables.
- Don't claim that sx locks are less efficient. That hasn't been true in
a few years now.
- Describe lockmanager locks next to sx locks since they are very similar
in terms of rules, etc., and so that all the lock primitives are
grouped together before the non-lock primitives.
- Similarly, move the section on Giant after the description of all the
non-lock primitives to preserve grouping.
- Condition variables work on several types of locks, not just mutexes.
- Add a bit of language to compare/contrast condition variables with
sleep/wakeup.
- Add a note about why pause(9) is unique.
- Add some language to define bounded vs unbounded sleeps and explain
why they are treated separately (bounded sleeps only need CPU time
to make forward progress).
- Don't state that using mtx_sleep() is a bad idea. It is in fact rather
necessary.
- Rework the interaction table a bit. First, it did not include really
include sleepable rmlocks and it left out lockmgr entirely. To get
things to fit, combine similar lock types into the same column / row,
and explicitly state what "sleep" means. The notes about recursion
and lock order were also a bit banal (lock order is always important,
not just in the few places annotated here), so remove them. In
particular, the lock order note would need to be on just about every
cell. If we want to document recursion I think a better approach
would be a separate table summarizing the recursion rules for each
lock as having too many notes clutters the table.
- Tweak the tables to use less indentation so everything still fits with
the added columns.
- Correct a few cells in the context mode table.
- Use mdoc markup instead of explicit markup in a few places.

device names "md" or "md[0-9]*" and a "file" option are specified in
/etc/fstab like this:
md none swap sw,file=/swap.bin 0 0
- Add GBDE/GELI encrypted swap space specification support, which
rc.d/encswap supported. The /etc/fstab lines are like the following:
/dev/ada1p1.bde none swap sw 0 0
/dev/ada1p2.eli none swap sw 0 0
.eli devices accepts aalgo, ealgo, keylen, and sectorsize as options.
swapctl(8) can understand an encrypted device in the command line
like this:
# swapctl -a /dev/ada2p1.bde
- "-L" flag is added to support "late" option to defer swapon until
rc.d/mountlate runs.
- rc.d script change:
rc.d/encswap -> removed
rc.d/addswap -> just display a warning message if $swapfile is defined
rc.d/swap1 -> renamed to rc.d/swap
rc.d/swaplate -> newly added to support "late" option
These changes alleviate a race condition between device creation/removal
and swapon/swapoff.

- Add an rm_assert() supporting various lock assertions similar to other
locking primitives. Because rmlocks track readers the assertions are
always fully accurate unlike rw_assert() and sx_assert().
- Flesh out the lock class methods for rmlocks to support sleeping via
condvars and rm_sleep() (but only while holding write locks), rmlock
details in 'show lock' in DDB, and the lc_owner method used by
dtrace.
- Add an internal destroyed cookie so that API functions can assert
that an rmlock is not destroyed.
- Make use of rm_assert() to add various assertions to the API (e.g.
to assert locks are held when an unlock routine is called).
- Give RM_SLEEPABLE locks their own lock class and always use the
rmlock's own lock_object with WITNESS.
- Use THREAD_NO_SLEEPING() / THREAD_SLEEPING_OK() to disallow sleeping
while holding a read lock on an rmlock.
