a bug where archiving a device node with a very
large minor number would sometimes overflow and

the prototype for swab() should be in <unistd.h> and not in <string.h>.
Move it, and update to match SUS. Leave the prototype in string.h for
now, for backwards compat.

makes later profiling and/or optimizing difficult in any way.

mechanism used by pfil. This shared locking mechanism will remove
a nasty lock order reversal which occurs when ucred based rules
are used which results in hard locks while mpsafenet=1.
So this removes the debug.mpsafenet=0 requirement when using
ucred based rules with IPFW.
It should be noted that this locking mechanism does not guarantee
fairness between read and write locks, and that it will favor
firewall chain readers over writers. This seemed acceptable since
write operations to firewall chains protected by this lock tend to
be less frequent than reads.

ID ranges that consist of exactly one attribute ID. libsdp(3) will check start
and end of the attribute ID range and if they are the same the range will be
collapsed to one atribute ID.
The problem was observed on Audiovox SMT5600 and Palm Treo 650.
