By default, cores are now assigned to queues in a sequential
manner rather than all NICs starting at the first core. On a four-core
system with two NICs each using two queue pairs, the nic:queue -> core
mapping has changed from this:
0:0 -> 0, 0:1 -> 1
1:0 -> 0, 1:1 -> 1
To this:
0:0 -> 0, 0:1 -> 1
1:0 -> 2, 1:1 -> 3
Additionally, a device can now be configured to use separate cores for TX
and RX queues.
Two new tunables have been added, dev.X.Y.iflib.separate_txrx and
dev.X.Y.iflib.core_offset. If core_offset is set, the NIC is not part
of the auto-assigned sequence.

This GRE-in-UDP encapsulation allows the UDP source port field to be
used as an entropy field for load-balancing of GRE traffic in transit
networks. Also most of multiqueue network cards are able distribute
incoming UDP datagrams to different NIC queues, while very little are
able do this for GRE packets.
When an administrator enables UDP encapsulation with command
`ifconfig gre0 udpencap`, the driver creates kernel socket, that binds
to tunnel source address and after udp_set_kernel_tunneling() starts
receiving of all UDP packets destined to 4754 port. Each kernel socket
maintains list of tunnels with different destination addresses. Thus
when several tunnels use the same source address, they all handled by
single socket. The IP[V6]_BINDANY socket option is used to be able bind
socket to source address even if it is not yet available in the system.
This may happen on system boot, when gre(4) interface is created before
source address become available. The encapsulation and sending of packets
is done directly from gre(4) into ip[6]_output() without using sockets.

This commit adds new if_alloc_domain() and if_alloc_dev() methods to
allocate ifnets. When called with a domain on a NUMA machine,
ifalloc_domain() will record the NUMA domain in the ifnet, and it will
allocate the ifnet struct from memory which is local to that NUMA
node. Similarly, if_alloc_dev() is a wrapper for if_alloc_domain
which uses a driver supplied device_t to call ifalloc_domain() with
the appropriate domain.
Note that the new if_numa_domain field fits in an alignment pad in
struct ifnet, and so does not alter the size of the structure.

r345708 worked for the base system, but unfortunately, caused a lot of
disruption for third-party packages that relied on C++, since bsd.sys.mk is
used by applications outside the base system. The defaults picked didn't match
the compiler's defaults and broke some builds that didn't specify a standard,
as well as some that overrode the value by setting `-std=gnu++14` (for
example) manually.
This change takes a more relaxed approach to appending `-std=${CXXSTD}` to
CXXFLAGS, by only doing so when the value is specified, as opposed to
overriding the standard set by an end-user. This avoids the need for having
to bake NOP default into bsd.sys.mk for supported compiler-toolchain
versions.
In order to make this change possible, add CXXSTD to Makefile snippets which
relied on the default value (c++11) added in r345708.

read_random() is/was used, mostly without error checking, in a lot of
very sensitive places in the kernel -- including seeding the widely used
arc4random(9).
Most uses, especially arc4random(9), should block until the device is seeded
rather than proceeding with a bogus or empty seed. I did not spy any
obvious kernel consumers where blocking would be inappropriate (in the
sense that lack of entropy would be ok -- I did not investigate locking
angle thoroughly). In many instances, arc4random_buf(9) or that family
of APIs would be more appropriate anyway; that work was done in r345865.
A minor cleanup was made to the implementation of the READ_RANDOM function:
instead of using a variable-length array on the stack to temporarily store
all full random blocks sufficient to satisfy the requested 'len', only store
a single block on the stack. This has some benefit in terms of reducing
stack usage, reducing memcpy overhead and reducing devrandom output leakage
via the stack. Additionally, the stack block is now safely zeroed if it was
used.
One caveat of this change is that the kern.arandom sysctl no longer returns
zero bytes immediately if the random device is not seeded. This means that
FreeBSD-specific userspace applications which attempted to handle an
unseeded random device may be broken by this change. If such behavior is
needed, it can be replaced by the more portable getrandom(2) GRND_NONBLOCK
option.
On any typical FreeBSD system, entropy is persisted on read/write media and
used to seed the random device very early in boot, and blocking is never a
problem.
This change primarily impacts the behavior of /dev/random on embedded
systems with read-only media that do not configure "nodevice random". We
toggle the default from 'charge on blindly with no entropy' to 'block
indefinitely.' This default is safer, but may cause frustration. Embedded
system designers using FreeBSD have several options. The most obvious is to
plan to have a small writable NVRAM or NAND to persist entropy, like larger
systems. Early entropy can be fed from any loader, or by writing directly
to /dev/random during boot. Some embedded SoCs now provide a fast hardware
entropy source; this would also work for quickly seeding Fortuna. A 3rd
option would be creating an embedded-specific, more simplistic random
module, like that designed by DJB in [1] (this design still requires a small
rewritable media for forward secrecy). Finally, the least preferred option
might be "nodevice random", although I plan to remove this in a subsequent
revision.
To help developers emulate the behavior of these embedded systems on
ordinary workstations, the tunable kern.random.block_seeded_status was
added. When set to 1, it blocks the random device.
I attempted to document this change in random.4 and random.9 and ran into a
bunch of out-of-date or irrelevant or inaccurate content and ended up
rototilling those documents more than I intended to. Sorry. I think
they're in a better state now.

The current approach of injecting manifest into mac_veriexec is to
verify the integrity of it in userspace (veriexec (8)) and pass its
entries into kernel using a char device (/dev/veriexec).
This requires verifying root partition integrity in loader,
for example by using memory disk and checking its hash.
Otherwise if rootfs is compromised an attacker could inject their own data.
This patch introduces an option to parse manifest in kernel based on envs.
The loader sets manifest path and digest.
EVENTHANDLER is used to launch the module right after the rootfs is mounted.
It has to be done this way, since one might want to verify integrity of the init file.
This means that manifest is required to be present on the root partition.
Note that the envs have to be set right before boot to make sure that no one can spoof them.

The behavior prior to this change would not override default values if set in
`bsd.own.mk`, or (in the more general case) globally before `bsd.progs.mk` was
included. This affected `bsd.test.mk` as well, since it consumes
`bsd.progs.mk`.
Some examples of this failing behavior are as follows:
* `BINMODE` defaults to 0555 per `bsd.own.mk`. If someone wanted to set the
`BINMODE` to `NOBINMODE` (0444) for `prog`, for example, like
`BINMODE.prog= ${NOBINMODE}`, `bsd.progs.mk` would not honor the per-PROG
setting.
* An application, `prog`, does not build at `WARNS?= 6`. Before this change,
setting to a lower `WARNS` value, e.g., `WARNS.prog= 3`, would have been
impossible, requiring that `prog` be built from another directory,
the global `WARNS` be lowered, or a per-PROG value needing to be set
across the board. None of the above workarounds is desirable.
This change unbreaks variables defined in `PROG_OVERRIDE_VARS` which have
defaults set before `bsd.progs.mk` is included, by setting them to their
defined values if set on a per-PROG basis.

The current logic for CSTD/CXXSTD requires homogenity as far as the
supported C/C++ standards, which is a sensible default. However, when
dealing with differing versions of C++, some code may compile with C++11, but
not C++17 (for instance). So in order to avoid having people convert over their
code to the new standard, give the users the ability to specify the standard on
a per-program basis.
This will allow a user to override the supporting standard for a set of
programs, mixing C++11 with C++14 (for instance).
