The crop/drop-ovl fragment scrub modes are not very useful and likely to confuse
users into making poor choices.
It's also a fairly large amount of complex code, so just remove the support
altogether.
Users who have 'scrub fragment crop|drop-ovl' in their pf configuration will be
implicitly converted to 'scrub fragment reassemble'.

To make it easier to understand how Capsicum interacts with linkat() and
renameat(), rename the rights to CAP_{LINK,RENAME}AT_{SOURCE,TARGET}.
This also addresses a shortcoming in Capsicum, where it isn't possible
to disable linking to files stored in a directory. Creating hardlinks
essentially makes it possible to access files with additional rights.

I/OAT is also referred to as Crystal Beach DMA and is a Platform Storage
Extension (PSE) on some Intel server platforms.
This driver currently supports DMA descriptors only and is part of a
larger effort to upstream an interconnect between multiple systems using
the Non-Transparent Bridge (NTB) PSE.
For now, this driver is only built on AMD64 platforms. It may be ported
to work on i386 later, if that is desired. The hardware is exclusive to
x86.
Further documentation on ioat(4), including API documentation and usage,
can be found in the new manual page.
Bring in a test tool, ioatcontrol(8), in tools/tools/ioat. The test
tool is not hooked up to the build and is not intended for end users.

CoDel is a parameterless queue discipline that handles variable bandwidth
and RTT.
It can be used as the single queue discipline on an interface or as a sub
discipline of existing queue disciplines such as PRIQ, CBQ, HFSC, FAIRQ.

This driver allows read the software reset switch state and control the
status LEDs.
The GPIO pins have their direction (input/output) locked down to prevent
possible short circuits.
Note that most people get a reset button that is a hardware reset. The
software reset button is available on boards from Netgate.

DEV_RANDOM" case.
Add RANDOM_LOADABLE option to allow loadable Yarrow/Fortuna/LocallyWritten

Retire the RANDOM_DUMMY option.

Use atomics for the live entropy rate-tracking.
Convert ints to bools for the 'seeded' logic.
Move _write() function from the algorithm-specific areas to randomdev.c
Get rid of reseed() function - it is unused.

- Add
nvlist_{add,get,take,move,exists,free}_{number,bool,string,nvlist,
descriptor} functions.
- Add support for (un)packing arrays.
- Add the nvl_array_next field to the nvlist structure.
If an array is added by the nvlist_{move,add}_nvlist_array function
this field will contains next element in the array.
- Add the nitems field to the nvpair and nvpair_header structure.
This field contains number of elements in the array.
- Add special flag (NV_FLAG_IN_ARRAY) which is set if nvlist is a part of
an array.
- Add special type (NV_TYPE_NVLIST_ARRAY_NEXT).This type is used only
on packing/unpacking.
- Add new API for traversing arrays (nvlist_get_array_next).
- Add the nvlist_get_pararr function which combines the
nvlist_get_array_next and nvlist_get_parent functions. If nvlist is in
the array it will return next element from array. If nvlist is last
element in array or it isn't in array it will return his
container (parent). This function should simplify traveling over nvlist.
- Add tests for new features.
- Add documentation for new functions.
- Add my copyright.
- Regenerate the sys/cddl/compat/opensolaris/sys/nvpair.h file.

operation as a write barrier. That description has never been correct,
and it has caused confusion. An acquire operation orders writes as well
as reads, and a release operation orders reads as well as writes.
Also, explicitly say that a thread doesn't see its own accesses being
reordered. The reordering of a thread's accesses is only (potentially)
visible to another thread. Thus, memory barriers need only be used to
control the ordering of accesses between threads, not within a thread.

with higher quality registers (presumably in a module that has just been
loaded), do not undo the user's choice by switching to the new timecounter.
Document that behavior, and also the fact that there is no way to unregister
a timecounter (and thus no way to unload a module containing one).
eliminating the need to build a custom kernel to use the CTS signal.
The historical UART_PPS_ON_CTS kernel option is still honored, but now it
can be overridden at runtime using a tunable to configure all uart devices
(hw.uart.pps_mode) or specific devices (dev.uart.#.pps_mode). The per-
device config is both a tunable and a writable sysctl.
This syncs the PPS capabilities of uart(4) with the enhancements recently
recently added to ucom(4) for capturing from USB serial devices.

There are still several bugs, but I've been using it for a while now.
Thanks to all the testers and to Adrian for his help with this
driver.
This driver isn't connected to the build yet, but it will be soon.
There's no MFC planned because the driver isn't very stable yet.
