add it in kern.mk, but only if we're using clang. While this
option is supported by both clang and gcc, in the future there
may be changes to clang which change the defaults that require
a tweak to build our kernel such that other tools in our tree
will work. Set a good example by forcing -gdwarf-2 only for
clang builds, and only if the user hasn't specified another
dwarf level already. Update UPDATING to reflect the changed
state of affairs. This also keeps us from having to update
all the ARM kernels to add this, and also keeps us from
in the future having to update all the MIPS kernels and is
one less place the user will have to know to do something
special for clang and one less thing developers will need

AppleTalk was a network transport protocol for Apple Macintosh devices
in 80s and then 90s. Starting with Mac OS X in 2000 the AppleTalk was
a legacy protocol and primary networking protocol is TCP/IP. The last
Mac OS X release to support AppleTalk happened in 2009. The same year
routing equipment vendors (namely Cisco) end their support.
Thus, AppleTalk won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.
IPX was a network transport protocol in Novell's NetWare network operating
system from late 80s and then 90s. The NetWare itself switched to TCP/IP
as default transport in 1998. Later, in this century the Novell Open
Enterprise Server became successor of Novell NetWare. The last release
that claimed to still support IPX was OES 2 in 2007. Routing equipment
vendors (e.g. Cisco) discontinued support for IPX in 2011.
Thus, IPX won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.

processor family to determine if the workaround for AMD Family 10h Erratum
383 should be enabled. To enable virtual machine migration among a
heterogeneous collection of physical machines, the hypervisor may have
been configured to report an older processor family with a reduced feature
set. Effectively, the reported processor family and its features are like
a "least common denominator" for the collection of machines.
Therefore, when the kernel is running in a virtual machine, instead of
relying upon the processor family, we now test for features that prove
that the underlying processor is not affected by the erratum. (The
features that we test for are unlikely to ever be emulated in software
on an affected physical processor.)

PCI bus numbers are only managed if NEW_PCIB is enabled and the architecture
defines a PCI_RES_BUS resource type.
- Add a helper API to create top-level PCI bus resource managers for each
PCI domain/segment. Host-PCI bridge drivers use this API to allocate
bus numbers from their associated domain.
- Change the PCI bus and CardBus drivers to allocate a bus resource for
their bus number from the parent PCI bridge device.
- Change the PCI-PCI and PCI-CardBus bridge drivers to allocate the
full range of bus numbers from secbus to subbus from their parent bridge.
The drivers also always program their primary bus register. The bridge
drivers also support growing their bus range by extending the bus resource
and updating subbus to match the larger range.
- Add support for managing PCI bus resources to the Host-PCI bridge drivers
used for amd64 and i386 (acpi_pcib, mptable_pcib, legacy_pcib, and qpi_pcib).

option, unbreak the lock tracing release semantic by embedding
calls to LOCKSTAT_PROFILE_RELEASE_LOCK() direclty in the inlined
version of the releasing functions for mutex, rwlock and sxlock.
Failing to do so skips the lockstat_probe_func invokation for
unlocking.
- As part of the LOCKSTAT support is inlined in mutex operation, for
kernel compiled without lock debugging options, potentially every
consumer must be compiled including opt_kdtrace.h.
Fix this by moving KDTRACE_HOOKS into opt_global.h and remove the
dependency by opt_kdtrace.h for all files, as now only KDTRACE_FRAMES
is linked there and it is only used as a compile-time stub [0].
[0] immediately shows some new bug as DTRACE-derived support for debug
in sfxge is broken and it was never really tested. As it was not
including correctly opt_kdtrace.h before it was never enabled so it
was kept broken for a while. Fix this by using a protection stub,
leaving sfxge driver authors the responsibility for fixing it
appropriately [1].

The value reported by FreeBSD as "real memory" when booting
doesn't match what is later reported by sysctl as hw.realmem.
This is due to the fact that the value printed during the
boot process is fetched from smbios data (when possible),
and accounts for holes in physical memory. On the other
hand, the value of hw.realmem is unconditionally set to be
one larger than the highest page of the physical address
space.
Fix this by setting hw.realmem to the same value printed
during boot, this makes hw.realmem honour it's name and
account properly for physical memory present in the system.
