In a virtual machine, VMCI is exposed as a regular PCI device. The primary
communication mechanisms supported are a point-to-point bidirectional
transport based on a pair of memory-mapped queues, and asynchronous
notifications in the form of datagrams and doorbells. These features are
available to kernel level components such as vSockets through the VMCI
kernel API. In addition to this, the VMCI kernel API provides support for
receiving events related to the state of the VMCI communication channels,

Forwarded packets passed through PFIL_OUT, which made it difficult for
firewalls to figure out if they were forwarding or producing packets. This in
turn is an issue for pf for IPv6 fragment handling: it needs to call
ip6_output() or ip6_forward() to handle the fragments. Figuring out which was
difficult (and until now, incorrect).
Having pfil distinguish the two removes an ugly piece of code from pf.

has PFIL_FWD set for forwarded packets. This allows pf to reliably work out if

ECN (ABE)" proposal to the New Reno congestion control algorithm module.
ABE reduces the amount of congestion window reduction in response to
ECN-signalled congestion relative to the loss-inferred congestion response.
More details about ABE can be found in the Internet-Draft:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tcpm-alternativebackoff-ecn
The implementation introduces four new sysctls:
- net.inet.tcp.cc.abe defaults to 0 (disabled) and can be set to non-zero to
enable ABE for ECN-enabled TCP connections.
- net.inet.tcp.cc.newreno.beta and net.inet.tcp.cc.newreno.beta_ecn set the
multiplicative window decrease factor, specified as a percentage, applied to
the congestion window in response to a loss-based or ECN-based congestion
signal respectively. They default to the values specified in the draft i.e.
beta=50 and beta_ecn=80.
- net.inet.tcp.cc.abe_frlossreduce defaults to 0 (disabled) and can be set to
non-zero to enable the use of standard beta (50% by default) when repairing
loss during an ECN-signalled congestion recovery episode. It enables a more
conservative congestion response and is provided for the purposes of
experimentation as a result of some discussion at IETF 100 in Singapore.
The values of beta and beta_ecn can also be set per-connection by way of the
TCP_CCALGOOPT TCP-level socket option and the new CC_NEWRENO_BETA or
CC_NEWRENO_BETA_ECN CC algo sub-options.

libregex is a regex(3) implementation intended to feature GNU extensions and
any other non-POSIX compliant extensions that are deemed worthy.
These extensions are separated out into a separate library for the sake of
not cluttering up libc further with them as well as not deteriorating the
speed (or lack thereof) of the libc implementation.
libregex is implemented as a build of the libc implementation with LIBREGEX
defined to distinguish this from a libc build. The reasons for
implementation like this are two-fold:
1.) Maintenance- This reduces the overhead induced by adding yet another
regex implementation to base.
2.) Ease of use- Flipping on GNU extensions will be as simple as linking
against libregex, and POSIX-compliant compilations can be guaranteed with a
REG_POSIX cflag that should be ignored by libc/regex and disables extensions
in libregex. It is also easier to keep REG_POSIX sane and POSIX pure when
implemented in this fashion.

Attaching syscon_generic earlier than BUS_PASS_DEFAULT makes it more
difficult for specific syscon drivers to attach to the syscon node and to
get ordering right. Further discussion yielded the following set of
decisions:
- Move syscon_generic to BUS_PASS_DEFAULT
- If a platform needs a syscon with different attach order or probe
behavior, it should subclass syscon_generic and match on the SoC specific
compat string
- When we come across a need for a syscon that attaches earlier but only
specifies compatible = "syscon", we should create a syscon_exclusive driver
that provides generic access but probes earlier and only matches if "syscon"
is the only compatible. Such fdt nodes do exist in the wild right now, but
we don't really use them at the moment.
Additionally:
- Any syscon provider that has needs any more complex than a spinlock solely
for syscon access and a single memory resource should subclass syscon
directly rather than attempting to subclass syscon_generic or add complexity
to it. syscon_generic's attach/detach methods may be made public should the
need arise to subclass it with additional attach/detach behavior.
We introduce aw_syscon(4) that just subclasses syscon_generic but probes
earlier to meet our requirements for if_awg and implements #2 above for this
specific situation. It currently only matches a64/a83t/h3 since these are
the only platforms that really need it at the time being.

Akin to r327783 for amd64. lld has been usable for amd64 for quite some
time, but a couple of issues remained that affected i386. These were
recently addressed upstream in lld and merged into FreeBSD (r326831,
r326879, r326897, r326957), so we can now use ld.lld on i386 as well.
Similarly to amd64 this change enables lld only as the bootstrap linker
(used to link the kernel and userland libraries and executables), while
GNU ld.bfd is still installed as /usr/bin/ld and used for ports builds.
The ports collection is essentially ready to use lld as the system
linker for amd64, but many ports still have trouble with lld on i386,
because lld defaults to -ztext, disallowing relocations against readonly
segments. Thus switching the system linker (WITH_LLD_IS_LD) will happen

Enable the hardclock-based watchdog previously conditional on the
SW_WATCHDOG option whenever hardware watchdogs are not found, and
watchdogd attempts to enable the watchdog. The SW_WATCHDOG option
still causes the sofware watchdog to be enabled even if there is a
hardware watchdog. This does not change the other software-based
watchdog enabled by the --softtimeout option to watchdogd.
Note that the code to reprime the watchdog during kernel core dumps is
no longer conditional on SW_WATCHDOG. I think this was previously a bug.

This copies changes from NetBSD into FreeBSD's man page. I compared the
proposed changes against FreeBSD headers and modified them to match.

Introduce new set of loader tunables kern.vt.color.N.rgb, where N is a
number from 0 to 15. The value is either comma-separated list decimal
numbers ranging from 0 to 255 that represent values of red, green, and
blue components respectively (i.e. "128,128,128") or 6-digit hex triplet
commonly used to represent colors in HTML or xterm settings (i.e. #808080)
Each tunable overrides one of the 16 hardcoded palette codes and can be set
in loader.conf(5)

A comment in Makefile.inc1 has long stated that LOCAL_DIRS are built last,
after the base system. Incremental improvements in parallel building over
the years have led to LOCAL_DIRS being built in parallel with base system
directories. This change allows the .WAIT directive to appear in LOCAL_DIRS
and LOCAL_LIB_DIRS lists to give the user some control over parallel
building of local additions.

This adds HardenedBSD which is a pseudo-fork of FreeBSD. It hasn't had a
release yet, but does does have active users and a community. As such
document it as a branch off of FreeBSD-stable. Ideally this adds enough
space so that future releases are easy enough to add.
filesystem larger than about 50-55 MiB.
The description of VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE is roughly as hand-wavy as my
understanding of the option, but at least mentioning that it's a factor
and giving an empirical datapoint that works will give folks some idea
of what to tweak if they have problems.
new clang 6.0.0 -Wtautological-constant-compare warning to the WARNS <=
6 level. (This warning is still being worked on upstream to reduce
false positives, but it is currently still too trigger happy.)
