sysctls were global (hw.fxp_rnr and hw.fxp_noflow), all of them are
now per-device. Sample output of "sysctl dev.fxp0" with this patch,

dev.fxp0.bundle_max: 6
dev.fxp0.rnr: 0

protect the registers so it was trivially possible for a sync command and
i/o command to fight each other and confuse the controller. Make the
sync fib alloc/release functions inline and remove the somewhat worthless
AAC_SYNC_LOCK_FORCE flag. Thanks to Adil Katchi for helping me to track
this down in RELENG_4.
We approximate pi with more than float precision using pi_hi+pi_lo in
the usual way (pi_hi is actually spelled pi in the source code), and
expect (float)0.5*pi_lo to give the low part of the corresponding
approximation for pi/2. However, the high part for pi/2 (pi_o_2) is
rounded to nearest, which happens to round up, while the high part for
pi was rounded down. Thus pi_o_2+(float)0.5*pi (in infinite precision)
was a very bad approximation for pi/2 -- the low term has the wrong
sign and increases the error drom less than half an ULP to a full ULP.
This fix rounds up instead of down for pi_hi. Consistently rounding
down instead of up should work, and is the method used in e_acosf.c
and e_asinf.c. The reason for the difference is that we sometimes
want to return precisely pi/2 in e_atan2f.c, so it is convenient to
have a correctly rounded (to nearest) value for pi/2 in a variable.
a_acosf.c and e_asinf.c also differ in directly approximating pi/2
instead pi; they multiply by 2.0 instead of dividing by 0.5 to convert
the approximation.
These complications are not directly visible in the double precision
versions because rounding to nearest happens to round down.
ip6addrctl_enable is set to YES, address selection policy is installed
into kernel.
If there is /etc/ip6addrctl.conf, it is used for address selection
policy. Even if there is no /etc/ip6addrctl.conf, we install default
policy. In this case, if ipv6_enable is set to YES, we use address
selection policy described in RFC 3484 as default. Otherwise, we
install priority policy for IPv4 address.
The default of ip6addrctl_enable is NO for now. However, it may
better to enable it by default.

sched_clock() rather than using callouts. This means we no longer have to
take the load of the callout thread into consideration while balancing and
should make the balancing decisions simpler and more accurate.
Tested on: x86/UP, amd64/SMP
and not tanf() because float type can't represent numbers large enough
to trigger the problem. However, there seems to be a precedent that
the float versions of the fdlibm routines should mirror their double
counterparts.

global mutex, accept_mtx, which serializes access to the following
fields across all sockets:
so_qlen so_incqlen so_qstate
so_comp so_incomp so_list
so_head
While providing only coarse granularity, this approach avoids lock
order issues between sockets by avoiding ownership of the fields
by a specific socket and its per-socket mutexes.
While here, rewrite soclose(), sofree(), soaccept(), and
sonewconn() to add assertions, close additional races and address
lock order concerns. In particular:
- Reorganize the optimistic concurrency behavior in accept1() to
always allocate a file descriptor with falloc() so that if we do
find a socket, we don't have to encounter the "Oh, there wasn't
a socket" race that can occur if falloc() sleeps in the current
code, which broke inbound accept() ordering, not to mention
requiring backing out socket state changes in a way that raced
with the protocol level. We may want to add a lockless read of
the queue state if polling of empty queues proves to be important
to optimize.
- In accept1(), soref() the socket while holding the accept lock
so that the socket cannot be free'd in a race with the protocol
layer. Likewise in netgraph equivilents of the accept1() code.
- In sonewconn(), loop waiting for the queue to be small enough to
insert our new socket once we've committed to inserting it, or
races can occur that cause the incomplete socket queue to
overfill. In the previously implementation, it was sufficient
to simply tested once since calling soabort() didn't release
synchronization permitting another thread to insert a socket as
we discard a previous one.
- In soclose()/sofree()/et al, it is the responsibility of the
caller to remove a socket from the incomplete connection queue
before calling soabort(), which prevents soabort() from having
to walk into the accept socket to release the socket from its
queue, and avoids races when releasing the accept mutex to enter
soabort(), permitting soabort() to avoid lock ordering issues
with the caller.
- Generally cluster accept queue related operations together
throughout these functions in order to facilitate locking.

It was based on the pty(4) driver which as a tty side an a non-tty side.
Nmdm(4) seems to have inherited two symmetric sides from pty but
unfortunately they are not quite ttys. Running a getty one one
side and tip on the other failed to produce NL->CRNL mapping for
instance.
Rip out the basically bogus cdevsw->{read,write} functions and rely
on ttyread() and ttywrite() which does the same thing.
Use taskqueue_swi_giant to run a task for either side to do what
needs to be done. (Direct calling is not an option as it leads to
recursion.) Trigger the task from the t_oproc and t_stop methods.
Default the ports to not ECHO. Since we neither rate limiting nor
emulation, two ports echoing each other is a really bad idea, which
can only be properly mitigated by rate limiting, rate emulation or
intelligent detection. Rate emulation would be a neat feature.
Ditch the modem-line emulation, if needed for some app, it needs
to be thought much more about how it interacts with the open/close
logic.
. Implement option -c, all partition sizes will be calculated
in cylinders as opposed to sectors. Since the Sun label is
inherently cylinder-based, this makes the job a little easier.
. Implement option -h, print the label in `human readable'
size/offset format.
. Implement SVR4-compatible VTOC-style elements. They are
fully optional, defaulting to the current behaviour where no
VTOC-style table will be written to disk. However, if
desired, the full functionality of the partitioning menu of
Solaris' format(1m) is now offered (and even more).
. When editing the label, do not loop around edit_label() where
a new template file is generated for each turn, this used to
be annoying in that any possible syntax error caused a
complaint, but then the template was created anew, so the
user had to perform all their editing again. Rather loop
inside edit_label(), similar to bsdlabel(8), so in case of
errors, the user will be presented their previous template
file again.
. If VTOC-style elements are present, the overlap checks are
made less stringent. Overlaps will still be warned about,
but overlaps of `unmountable' partitions against other ones
are no longer fatal. That way, e. g. VxVM encapsulated
disk labels can be fully edited in FreeBSD (but not in
Solaris ;-).
. In print_label(), generate the editing hints only if the -e
flag is in effect. Additionally, print a hint about the
total number of sectors in the (hardware) medium.
. When editing a label, allow for changing the geometry
emulation (and textual name) by modifying the "text:" line
on top. That way, a more effective emulation can be
chosen.
. When editing/reading a label, additionally allow for the
suffixes `s' (512-byte sectors), and `c' (cylinders) in the
partition size field.
. Finally, turn the stub man page into something that really
explains the entire thing.
