It serves no useful purpose and wasn't as popular as its equally meritless
cousin, srandomdev(3).
Setting aside the problems with rand(3) in general, the problem with this
interface is that the seed isn't shared with the caller (other than by
attacking the output of the generator, which is trivial, but not a hallmark of
pleasant API design). The (arguable) utility of rand(3) or random(3) is as a
semi-fast simulation generator which produces consistent results from a given
seed. These are mutually at odd. Furthermore, sometimes people got the
mistaken impression that a high quality random seed meant a weak generator like
rand(3) or random(3) could be used for things like cryptographic key
generation. This is absolutely not so.
The API was never part of a standard and was not widely used in tree. Existing
in-tree uses have all been removed.
Possible replacement in out of tree codebases:
char buf[3];
time_t t;
time(t);
strftime(buf, sizeof(buf), "%S", gmtime(&t));
srand(atoi(buf));

Recently (r355315) the size of the struct uma_slab bitset field us_free
became dynamic instead of conservative. Now, make the debug bitset
size dynamic too. The debug bitset is INVARIANTS-only, so in fact we
don't care too much about the space savings that results from this, but
enabling minimally-sized slabs on INVARIANTS builds is still important
in order to be able to test new slab layouts effectively.

Instead of passing NULL to fzap_name_equal and crashing, just return
ENOENT. This happened when higher bits of a hash of the searched key
(its hash prefix) matched a hash prefix of some key in the ZAP, but the
full hash value of the searched key did not match any key in the ZAP.

CPL_TX_PKT_XT disables the internal parser on the chip and instead
relies on the driver to provide the exact length of the L2 and L3
headers. This allows hw checksumming and TSO to be used with L2 and
L3 encapsulations that the chip doesn't understand directly.
Note that netmap tx still uses the old CPL as it never uses the hw
to generate the checksum on tx.

- Allow the userland hypervisor to intercept breakpoint exceptions
(BP#) in the guest. A new capability (VM_CAP_BPT_EXIT) is used to
enable this feature. These exceptions are reported to userland via
a new VM_EXITCODE_BPT that includes the length of the original
breakpoint instruction. If userland wishes to pass the exception
through to the guest, it must be explicitly re-injected via
vm_inject_exception().
- Export VMCS_ENTRY_INST_LENGTH as a VM_REG_GUEST_ENTRY_INST_LENGTH
pseudo-register. Injecting a BP# on Intel requires setting this to
the length of the breakpoint instruction. AMD SVM currently ignores
writes to this register (but reports success) and fails to read it.
- Rework the per-vCPU state tracked by the debug server. Rather than
a single 'stepping_vcpu' global, add a structure for each vCPU that
tracks state about that vCPU ('stepping', 'stepped', and
'hit_swbreak'). A global 'stopped_vcpu' tracks which vCPU is
currently reporting an event. Event handlers for MTRAP and
breakpoint exits loop until the associated event is reported to the
debugger.
Breakpoint events are discarded if the breakpoint is not present
when a vCPU resumes in the breakpoint handler to retry submitting
the breakpoint event.
- Maintain a linked-list of active breakpoints in response to the GDB
'Z0' and 'z0' packets.

Currently, __NO_TLS is defined to 1 on powerpc64. TLS usage works much
better on ELFv2 due to the modern tooling, so take the opportunity to
reenable TLS on ELFv2.
If you are using a self-built ELFv2 environment on powerpc64, you will
have to run installworld twice due to RuneLocale changes. This is the only
known regression, and if you are using the ELFv2 isos, you likely already
have the updated libraries installed, as this change is part of the
patchset that the isos integrate.

The !USE_OPENSSL_CRYPTO_RAND path uses arc4random_buf() correctly.
In general, we should prefer to avoid things OpenSSL does poorly when a good
alternative exists in libc.
I'm pretty skeptical that any crypto in telnet is worth using, but if we're
ostensibly generating keys, arc4random is strictly better than the previous
construct.
Replace with arc4random.
TACAS+ is a 1993 Cisco extension to the 1984 TACAS. Is this something we want
in base still? The directory has been substantively unmaintained since 2002,
at least.
These functions appear to intend to produce unpredictable results. Just use
arc4random.
While here, use an explicit_bzero instead of memset where the intent is clearly
to zero out a secret (clear_passphrase).
The simulation cannot be reproduced, so the value of using a deterministic PRNG
like random(3) is dubious. The number of repitions used in the sample isn't a
problem for the Chacha implementation of arc4random we have today. (Also, no
one actually runs this code; it was provided as an example of the work the
author did validating the implementation. It's not even test code.)
