Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

When we're creating new providers for each of the partitions, add
aliases to the geom before we create the provider so when geom_dev
tastes the provider, the aliases are in place so the proper /dev
entries are created. So foo5p6 gets created as an alias for bar5p6
when foo is an alias for bar in the geom we're partitioning with
g_part. This also copies aliases from the container geom (eg disk) to
the label geom (the disk with GPT partitioning) so that aliases nest
properly.

gpart(8) has functionality to change the label of an GPT partition.
This functionality works like it should, however, after a label change
the /dev/gpt/ entries remain unchanged. glabel(8) status output remains
unchanged. The change only takes effect after a reboot.

Upstream the BUF_TRACKING and FULL_BUF_TRACKING buffer debugging code.
This can be handy in tracking down what code touched hung bios and bufs
last. The full history is especially useful, but adds enough bloat that
it shouldn't be enabled in release builds.
Function names (or arbitrary string constants) are tracked in a
fixed-size ring in bufs. Bios gain a pointer to the upper buf for
tracking. SCSI CCBs gain a pointer to the upper bio for tracking.

This value is u32 on disk, but assigned to an int in memory. After we do the
implicit conversion via assignment, check that the result is at least one[1]
(non-negative[2]).
1. The subsequent for-loop iterates from gpt_entries minus one, down, until
reaching zero. A negative or zero initial index results in undefined signed
integer overflow.
2. It is also used to index into arrays later.
In practice, we expected non-malicious disks to contain small positive values.

rounddown2 tends to produce longer lines than the original code
and when the code has a high indentation level it was not really
advantageous to do the replacement.
This tries to strike a balance between readability using the macros
and flexibility of having the expressions, so not everything is
converted.
When we are detecting a partition table and didn't find PMBR, try to
read backup GPT header from the last sector and if it is correct,

additional information since gpart was activated than before. This
allows fsck of a UFS partition without having to specify it is UFS,

partitions of types other than "freebsd-boot" (in particular, "efi").
This allows the removal of some nasty hacks for supporting PowerPC systems,
in particular aliasing freebsd-boot to apple-boot on APM and an IBM-specific
code on MBR.
This changes the installer to use the correct names, which also breaks a
degeneracy in the meaning of "freebsd-boot" that allows the addition
of support for some newer IBM systems that can boot from GPT in addition to
MBR. Since I have no idea how to detect which those systems are, leave
the default on IBM PPC systems as MBR for now.
These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,
such as:
1) no output from sysctl(8)
2) erroneously returning ENOMEM with tools like truss(1)
or uname(1)

there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

This partitioning scheme is used in DragonFlyBSD. It is similar to
BSD disklabel, but has the following improvements:
* metadata has own dedicated place and isn't accessible through partitions;
* all offsets are 64-bit;
* supports 16 partitions by default (has reserved place for more);
* has reserved place for backup label (but not yet implemented);
* has UUIDs for partitions and partition types;
