The last two drivers that required sppp are cp(4) and ce(4).
These devices are still produced and can be purchased
at Cronyx <http://cronyx.ru/hardware/wan.html>.
Since Roman Kurakin <rik@FreeBSD.org> has quit them, they no
longer support FreeBSD officially. Later they have dropped
support for Linux drivers to. As of mid-2020 they don't even
have a developer to maintain their Windows driver. However,
their support verbally told me that they could provide aid to
a FreeBSD developer with documentaion in case if there appears
a new customer for their devices.
These drivers have a feature to not use sppp(4) and create an
interface, but instead expose the device as netgraph(4) node.
Then, you can attach ng_ppp(4) with help of ports/net/mpd5 on
top of the node and get your synchronous PPP. Alternatively
you can attach ng_frame_relay(4) or ng_cisco(4) for HDLC.
Actually, last time I used cp(4) back in 2004, using netgraph(4)
instead of sppp(4) was already the right way to do.
Thus, remove the sppp(4) related part of the drivers and enable
by default the negraph(4) part. Further maintenance of these
drivers in the tree shouldn't be a big deal.
While doing that, remove some cruft and enable cp(4) compilation
on amd64. The ce(4) for some unknown reason marks its internal
DDK functions with __attribute__ fastcall, which most likely is
safe to remove, but without hardware I'm not going to do that, so
ce(4) remains i386-only.

Support loading a default pf ruleset in case of invalid pf.conf.
If no pf rules are loaded pf will pass/allow all traffic, assuming the
kernel is compiled without PF_DEFAULT_TO_DROP, as is the case in
GENERIC.
In other words: if there's a typo in the main pf_rules we would allow
all traffic. The new default rules minimise the impact of this.
If $pf_program (i.e. pfctl) fails to set $pf_fules and
$pf_fallback_rules_enable is YES we will load $pf_fallback_rules_file if
set, or $pf_fallback_rules.
$pf_fallback_rules can include multiple rules, for example to permit
traffic on a management interface.
$pf_fallback_rules_enable defaults to "NO", preserving historic behaviour.

As of ipfilter 5.1.2 the IPv4 and IPv6 rules tables have been merged.
The ipf(8) -6 option has been a NOP since then. Currently the additional
ipf -6 load statement in rc.d/ipfilter simply added the second ipfilter
rules file to the table already populated by the previous ipf command.
Plenty of time has passed since ipfilter 5.1.2 was imported. It is time to
remove the option from rc.conf and the rc script.

r376026 added a new "-R" option to mountd, which tells it to
not support the Mount protocol (not used by NFSv4) and not
register with rpcbind.
Rpcbind is considered a security issue by some sites now.
This patch adds a new yes/no variable called nfsv4_server_only.
When that is set, make vfs.nfsd.server_min_vers=4 and set "=R"
for mountd.
Setting vfs.nfsd.server_min_vers=4 tells nfsd to not register with rpcbind.
While here, add a check for "load_kld nfsd" failing to nfsd.

The variable defaults to "/usr/local", unless sysctl returns some other
value for "user.localbase".
The value of user.localbase defaults to _PATH_LOCALBASE as defined in
paths.h and thus this commit has no immediate effect.
The purpose of this change is to make /etc/defaults/rc.conf automatically

bootonce feature is temporary, one time boot, activated by
"bectl activate -t BE", "bectl activate -T BE" will reset the bootonce flag.
By default, the bootonce setting is reset on attempt to boot and the next
boot will use previously active BE.
By setting zfs_bootonce_activate="YES" in rc.conf, the bootonce BE will
be set permanently active.
bootonce dataset name is recorded in boot pool labels, bootenv area.
in case of nextboot, the nextboot_enable boolean variable is recorded in
freebsd:nvstore nvlist, also stored in boot pool label bootenv area.
On boot, the loader will process /boot/nextboot.conf if nextboot_enable
is "YES", and will set nextboot_enable to "NO", preventing /boot/nextboot.conf
processing on next boot.
bootonce and nextboot features are usable in both UEFI and BIOS boot.
To use bootonce/nextboot features, the boot loader needs to be updated on disk;
if loader.efi is stored on ESP, then ESP needs to be updated and
for BIOS boot, stage2 (zfsboot or gptzfsboot) needs to be updated
(gpart or other tools).
At this time, only lua loader is updated.

On UFS with SU+J, sometimes fsck's default recovery from journal marks the
filesystem as clean but some errors remain.
With SU only, default fsck in preen mode sometimes thinks all errors have
been fixed but some still remain.
To address the issues above, this change adds a new config option:
fsck_flags. By default it's set to -p, but the user may change it to -y
or -f -y, for instance, to force a full fsck after a system crash.

Each boot, regenerate /var/run/os-release based on the currently running
system. Create a /etc/os-release symlink pointing to this file (so that this
doesn't create a new reason /etc can not be mounted read-only).
This is compatible with what other systems do and is what the sysutil/os-release
port attempted to do, but in an incomplete way. Linux, Solaris and DragonFly all
implement this natively as well. The complete standard can be found at
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/os-release.html
Moving this to the base solves both the non-standard location problem with the
port, as well as the lack of update of this file on system update.

This change allows to specify a watchdog(9) timeout for a system
shutdown. The timeout is activated when the watchdogd daemon is
stopped. The idea is to a prevent any indefinite hang during late
stages of the shutdown. The feature is implemented in rc.d/watchdogd,
it builds upon watchdogd -x option.
Note that the shutdown timeout is not actiavted when the watchdogd
service is individually stopped by an operator. It is also not
activated for the 'shutdown' to the single-user mode. In those cases it
is assumed that the operator knows what they are doing and they have
means to recover the system should it hang.
Significant subchanges and implementation details:
- the argument to rc.shutdown, completely unused before, is assigned to
rc_shutdown variable that can be inspected by rc scripts
- init(8) passes "single" or "reboot" as the argument, this is not
changed
- the argument is not mandatory and if it is not set then rc_shutdown is
set to "unspecified"
- however, the default jail management scripts and jail configuration
examples have been updated to pass "jail" to rc.shutdown, just in case
- the new timeout can be set via watchdogd_shutdown_timeout rc option
- for consistency, the regular timeout can now be set via
watchdogd_timeout rc option
- watchdogd_shutdown_timeout and watchdogd_timeout override timeout
specifications in watchdogd_flags
- existing configurations, where the new rc options are not set, should
keep working as before
I am not particularly wed to any of the implementation specifics.
I am open to changing or removing any of them as long as the provided
functionality is the same (or very close) to the proposed one.
For example, I think it can be implemented without using watchdogd -x,
by means of watchdog(1) alone. In that case there would be a small
window between stopping watchdogd and running watchdog, but I think that
that is acceptable.

The reasons for this are forward looking to pkgbase:
* /sbin/init is a special binary; try not to replace it with
every package update because an rc script was touched.
(a follow-up commit will make init its own package)
* having rc in its own place will allow more easy replacement
of the rc framework with alternatives, such as openrc.
