as seek to teh last location saved will still work. This is needed for Samba
to be able to correctly handle delete requests from windows. This does not
completely fix seekdir when deletes are present but fixes the worst of the
problems. The real solution must involve some changes to the API for eh VFS
and getdirentries(2).

In an attempt to improve performance, cp reordered directories first
(although the comment says directories last). This is not effective with new
UFS layout policies.
The sorting reorders multiple arguments passed to cp, which may be
undesirable.
Additionally, the comparison function does not induce a total order. Per
POSIX, this causes undefined behaviour in qsort().
NetBSD removed the sorting in 2009.
On filesystems that return directory entries in hash/btree order, sorting by
d_fileno before statting improves performance on large directories. However,
this can only be implemented in fts(3).

At present zfs_domount() acquires a reference on the filesystem's root vnode
and that reference is kept until zfs_umount.
The latter calls vflush(rootrefs = 1) to dispose of the extra reference.
There is no explanation of why that reference is kept - what problem it
solves or what behavior it improves.
Also, that logic is FreeBSD specific.
There is one real problem with that reference, though.
zfs recv -F may receive a full, non-incremental stream to a mounted filesystem.
In that case the received root object is likely to have a different z_gen
attribute value. Because of that, zfs_rezget will leave the previous root znode
and vnode disassociated from the actual object (z_sa_hdl == NULL).
Thus, future calls to VFS_ROOT() -> zfs_root() will produce a new vnode-znode
pair, while the old one will be kept alive by the outstanding reference.
So, the outstanding reference will not actually be for the new root vnode
(or, more precisely, vnodes - because a root vnode may be recycled and a newer
one can be created).
As a result, when vflush(rootrefs = 1) s called there will be two problems:
- a leaked reference on the old root vnode preventing a graceful unmount
- insufficient references on the actual root vnode leading to a crash upon
access to the vnode after it is destroyed by vgone() + vdrop()
The second issue will actually override the first one.

however it will fail to output them if the type is not set correctly. This
can happen when it finds an attribute it hasn't seen before, for example
when building shared objects it will use the attributes from crti.o, hwever
this file has no attributes set.

initialize the MFUNC registers. Our old test of assuming that if this
register is set at all is not quite right. Many scenarios (including
the power-on defaults for chips w/o EEPROMs) land us in trouble. The
MFUNC0 pin should be set to signal #INTA and the MFUNC1 pin should be
set to signal #INTB of multi-socketed devices. Since my memory recalls
issues with blindly clearing the upper bytes of this register, perform
the heuristic only when both MFUNC0 and 1 are clear. We won't work
well using these pins for GPIO, and the serial interrupts won't save
us because we go out of our way to generally disable them. They are
needed to support legacy drivers for 16-bit PC Cards that are
hard-wired to specific IRQ values. Since FreeBSD never had any of
these, we configure the more reliable direct signaling. This was just
one small piece of that which had been left out back in the day.
