This driver was merged to HEAD one week prior to Exar publicly announcing they
had left the Ethernet market. It is not known to be used and has various code
quality issues spotted by Brooks and Hiren. Retire it in preparation for
FreeBSD 12.0.

Each TCP connection that uses the system default cc_newreno(4) congestion
control algorithm module leaks a "struct newreno" (8 bytes of memory) at
connection initialisation time. The NULL-pointer dereference is only germane
when using the ABE feature, which is disabled by default.
While at it:
- Defer the allocation of memory until it is actually needed given that ABE is
optional and disabled by default.
- Document the ENOMEM errno in getsockopt(2)/setsockopt(2).
- Document ENOMEM and ENOBUFS in tcp(4) as being synonymous given that they are
used interchangeably throughout the code.
- Fix a few other nits also accidentally omitted from the original patch.

freebsd-update depends on phttpget from portsnap. We could move phttpget
out of portsnap and build it as long as WITHOUT_FREEBSD_UPDATE and
WITHOUT_PORTSNAP are not both set, but for now just make the dependency
explicit.

This hardware isn't totally ancient, about equal to a mxge(4) or mlx4en(4),
but the company was sold to Exar which then promptly exited the Ethernet
business so the card was commercially available for under 2 years. On deep
search, the only usage of these cards I found was by the importing of the
driver. There are code quality issues identified by Brooks and Hiren and
no visible use nor maintainership that warrant removal from FreeBSD 12.0.

As of r333461 we require ifunc support to link a working amd64 kernel.
The default in-tree bootstrap linker is lld and it has the required
support, as does any modern out-of-tree binutils linker. The in-tree
GNU ld is from binutils 2.17.50 and it does not have ifunc support,
so produce an error rather than a broken kernel.

Rtld is not compatible with SSP, and since we link libc_pic.a to rtld
to have the basic support like memory and string copy functions, we
have to both carefully limit libc use, and to provide the ssp support
shims. This change makes the libc use in rtld more straighforward but
still limited, and allows to remove the shims, to be done in the next
commit.

The original Berkeley Software Distributions were made in the 1980's
and 1990's. At that time, the Buenos Ares Convention of 1910 was in
force in most of the countries in the Americas. It required an
affirmative statement of rights reservation, typically using 'All
Rights Reserved.' The Regents included this phrase in their copyright
notices to invoke this treaty to ensure maximal copyright protection.
In the 1990's, Latin America coutries ratifeid the Berne Convention on
copyrights which prohibited them from requiring an affirmative
statement to reserve the rights. When Nicaragua ratified in 2000, the
Buenos Ares Convention of 1910 was effectively repealed. This made all
the 'All Rights Reserved' phrases obsolete and legal deadweight most
of the time, and certainly in the cases removed here.
Since it's no longer required, and is in fact meaningless, core has
decided to dropped it from the project's collection copyright and
sample templates. It encourages other rights holders to do the same
after consultation with their legal department.
More see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buenos_Aires_Convention for
more information.

Currently when net.inet.carp.allow=0 CARP state remains as MASTER, which is
not very useful (if there are other masters -- it can lead to split brain,
if there are none -- it makes no sense). Having it as INIT makes it clear
that carp packets are disabled.

This is a component of a system which lets the kernel dump core to
a remote host after a panic, rather than to a local storage device.
The server component is available in the ports tree. netdump is
particularly useful on diskless systems.
The netdump(4) man page contains some details describing the protocol.
Support for configuring netdump will be added to dumpon(8) in a future
commit. To use netdump, the kernel must have been compiled with the
NETDUMP option.
The initial revision of netdump was written by Darrell Anderson and
was integrated into Sandvine's OS, from which this version was derived.

It was an old TRE that had plenty of bugs and no performance gain over
regex(3). I disabled it by default in r323615, and there was some confusion
about what the knob does- likely due to poor naming on my part- to the tune
of "well, it sounds like it should speed things up" (mentioned by multiple
people).
To compound this, I have no intention of maintaining a second regex
implementation. If someone would like to step up and volunteer to maintain a
lean-and-mean implementation for grep, this is OK, but we have very few
volunteers to maintain even our primary regex implementation.
The rsu firmware license check has been disabled since r292756. Changes
rsu(4) since the license ack is no longer required.
While here, add `device rsufw` hint to the kernel configuration lines and
add/update paths to the installed license file in both rsu(4) and rsufw(4).
