The system hostname is now stored in prison0, and the global variable
"hostname" has been removed, as has the hostname_mtx mutex. Jails may
have their own host information, or they may inherit it from the
parent/system. The proper way to read the hostname is via
getcredhostname(), which will copy either the hostname associated with
the passed cred, or the system hostname if you pass NULL. The system
hostname can still be accessed directly (and without locking) at
prison0.pr_host, but that should be avoided where possible.
The "similar information" referred to is domainname, hostid, and
hostuuid, which have also become prison parameters and had their
associated global variables removed.

flag from a mount flag to FS-specific flag.
- Simplify usage. Instead of 'mksnap_ffs /mnt/foo /mnt/foo/snap' allow to
give only one argument: 'mksnap_ffs /mnt/foo/snap'. Old usage is also
accepted for now.
- Add an example of how to mount a snapshot.
ipfilter tables via http by the user-level ippool utility. Previously
the 1024-byte buffer used to store a http request coudld easily overflow
if the length of the hostname part of the url passes exceeded 496 bytes. [1]
- Use snprintf to prevent possieble buffer overflows in future. [2]
- Do not try to close the descriptor twice on failure. [2]

The "wall clock" in the current code is actually the hypervisor start time.
The time of day is the "start time" plus the hypervisor "uptime".
Large enough bumps in the dom0 clock lead to a hypervisor "bump" which is
implemented as a bump in the start time, not the uptime. The clock.c routines
were reading in the hypervisor start time and then using this as the TOD.
This meant that any hypervisor time bump would cause the FreeBSD DomU to
set its TOD to the hypervisor start time, rather than the actual TOD.
This fix is a bit hacky and some reshuffling should be done later on
to clarify what is going on. I've left the wall clock code alone.
(The code which updates shadow_tv and shadow_tv_version.)
A new routine adds the uptime to the shadow_tv, which is then used to
update the TOD.
I've included some debugging so it is obvious when the clock is nudged.

- Add rm_init_flags() and accept extended options only for that variation.
- Add a flags space specifically for rm_init_flags(), rather than borrowing
the lock_init() flag space.
- Define flag RM_RECURSE to use instead of LO_RECURSABLE.
- Define flag RM_NOWITNESS to allow an rmlock to be exempt from WITNESS
checking; this wasn't possible previously as rm_init() always passed
LO_WITNESS when initializing an rmlock's struct lock.
- Add RM_SYSINIT_FLAGS().
- Rename embedded mutex in rmlocks to make it more obvious what it is.
- Update consumers.
- Update man page.
the last component is a symlink to something that isn't a directory.
We introduce a new namei flag, TRAILINGSLASH, which is set by lookup()
if the last component is followed by a slash. The trailing slash is
then stripped, as before. If the final component is a symlink,
lookup() will return to namei(), which will expand the symlink and
call lookup() with the new path. When all symlinks have been
resolved, lookup() checks if the TRAILINGSLASH flag is set, and if it
is, and the vnode it ended up with is not a directory, it returns
ENOTDIR.

I don't want people to override the mutex when allocating a TTY. It has
to be there, to keep drivers like syscons happy. So I'm creating a
tty_alloc_mutex() which can be used in those cases. tty_alloc_mutex()
should eventually be removed.
The advantage of this approach, is that we can just remove a function,
without breaking the regular API in the future.
Introduce for this operation the reverse NO_ADAPTIVE_SX option.
The flag SX_ADAPTIVESPIN to be passed to sx_init_flags(9) gets suppressed
and the new flag, offering the reversed logic, SX_NOADAPTIVE is added.
Additively implements adaptive spininning for sx held in shared mode.
The spinning limit can be handled through sysctls in order to be tuned
while the code doesn't reach the release, after which time they should
be dropped probabilly.
This change has made been necessary by recent benchmarks where it does
improve concurrency of workloads in presence of high contention
(ie. ZFS).
KPI breakage is documented by __FreeBSD_version bumping, manpage and
UPDATING updates.

includes support for NFSv4. The subsystem can optionally be linked
into the kernel using the two options:
NFSCL - the client
NFSD - the server
It is also built as three modules:
nfscl - the client
nfsd - the server
nfscommon - functions shared by the client and server
