heavily used when parsing config files. Mostly these changes avoid making
temporary copies of the strings, and avoid doing byte at a time append
operations, on the most-used code path.
On a 1.2 GHz ARM processor this reduces the time to parse the config files
from 13 to 6 seconds.

their socket connection any time, and devd only notices that when it gets an
error trying to write an event to the client. On a system with no device
change activity, clients could connect and disappear repeatedly without devd
noticing, leading to an ever-growing list of open socket descriptors in devd.
Now devd uses poll(2) looking for POLLHUP on all existing clients every time
a new client connection is established, and also periodically (once a minute)
to proactively find zombie clients and reap the socket descriptors. It also
now has a connection limit, configurable with a new -l <num> command line arg.
When the maximum number of connections is reached it stops accepting new
connections until some current clients drop off.

lists it reads from its configuration files on the priority field.
Because some items in the lists have the same priority, and std::sort()
is not stable, the exact order in which the items are enumerated does
not have to correspond to the order they appear in the configuration
files.
Apparently this was never noticed with libstdc++, but with libc++ it
could cause the "uhid" entry from /etc/devd/usb.conf to be used instead
of the "ums" entry (which is earlier in the file). This caused the
problem described in the PR: the USB mouse module was never loaded, and
the other actions (such as starting moused) were not executed.
To fix the problem, make devd use std:stable_sort() instead.

Also, put a small work around into devd to prevent a hang on boot this
would cause because select used to return 2 rather than 0 for no

remove this workaround May 7th. You have until then to upgrade your
kernel if you want to run a new devd with an older kernel.
'd': now means don't do daemon().
'D': Debug
'n': Don't wait to process all pending events before calling daemon.
In the past, devd would call daemon immediately. However, this causes
a race. If anything in the boot process depends on configuring the
devices configured by devd, maybe they would be configured in time,
maybe not. Now we don't call daemon until all pending events are
processed, unless -n is specified.
# -n is actually the default for a while due to the select(2) bug in devctl

people that are playing with devd by hand to have something happen.
Otherwise, it appears that devd isn't working because /dev/devctl is
disabled and producing no events.
