realpath(3) is used a lot e.g., by clang and is a major source of getcwd
and fstatat calls. This can be done more efficiently in the kernel.
This works by performing a regular lookup while saving the name and found
parent directory. If the terminal vnode is a directory we can resolve it using
usual means. Otherwise we can use the name saved by lookup and resolve the
parent.

On machines with SMAP, fueword executes two serializing instructions
which can be seen in microbenchmarks.
As a measure to restore microbenchmark numbers, only read the word on
the attempt to deliver signal in ast(). If the word is set, signal is
not delivered and word is kept, preventing interruption of
interruptible sleeps by signals until userspace calls
sigfastblock(UNBLOCK) which clears the word.
This way, the spurious EINTR that userspace can see while in critical
section is on first interruptible sleep, if a signal is pending, and
on signal posting. It is believed that it is not important for rtld
and lbithr critical sections. It might be visible for the application
code e.g. for the callback of dl_iterate_phdr(3), but again the belief
is that the non-compliance is acceptable. Most important is that the
retry of the sleeping syscall does not interrupt unless additional
signal is posted.
For now I added the knob kern.sigfastblock_fetch_always to enable the
word read on syscall entry to be able to diagnose possible issues due
to spurious EINTR.
While there, do some code restructuting to have all sigfastblock()
handling located in kern_sig.c.

Move IPv6 source address checks from after extension header heandling
to the top of the function. If we do not pass these checks there is
no reason to do a lot of work upfront.
Fold extension header preparations and length calculations together into
a single branch and macro rather than doing them sequentially.
Likewise move extension header concatination into a single branch block
only doing it if we recorded any extension header length length.

ABI has change in between ncurses 5 or 6. While theorically ncurses 6 is buildable with
backward compatibility, I fail at building in a way where the application linked against
the previous version of ncurses are rendering properly.
Let's go on the new ABI which provides all the latest features.
A compat12x package is cooking for backward compatibility
The epoch stuff with taskqueues works fine if the driver never calls
the receive path in other contexts, but this driver does. If there was
a chip reset during active receive then part of the reset will call
the receive path to flush out any active packets before reinitialising
the receive queue and that needs to be done with the epoch held.
So:
* make the receive task a normal task again
* explicitly call epoch enter/exit around the legacy and newer DMA
receive paths
* add a couple of epoch asserts to ensure that the receive packet
path itself is called with epoch held.
This fixes it on my Atom eeepc laptop (circa 2010!) that I did
all of my initial 802.11n work in this driver and net80211.

* AR9285, STA mode
TODO:
* Test on EDMA chipset (AR9380)
* Test in AP/adhoc modes, just to be sure (eg for beacon

Document better this file, updating the URL to the IANA registry and closely

For system ports (0 to 1023) we now try to follow the registry closely, noting
some historical differences where applicable.
For the User ports (1024 - 49151) we try to keep some sensible balance only
of services that are likely to be found on FreeBSD/UNIX systems. This attempts
to strike a balance between complexity and usefulness.
As a side effect: drop references to unofficial Kerberos IV which was EOL'ed
on Oct 2006[1]. While it is conceivable some people may still use it in some
very old FreeBSD machines that can't be replaced easily, the use of it is
considered a security risk. Also drop the unofficial netatalk, which we
supported long ago in the kernel but was dropped long ago.

fd.
The read built-in command calls read(2) with a 1-byte buffer because
newline characters need to be detected even on a byte stream which
comes from a non-seekable file descriptor. Because of this, the
following script calls >6,000 read(2) to show a 6KiB file:
while read IN; do echo "$IN"; done < /COPYRIGHT
When the input byte stream is seekable, it is possible to read a data
block and then reposition the file pointer to where a newline
character found. This change adds a small buffer to do this and
reduces the number of read(2) calls.
Theoretically, multiple built-in commands reading the same seekable
byte stream in a single pipe chain can share the buffer. However,
this change just makes a single invocation of the read built-in
allocate a buffer and deallocate it every time for simplicity.
Although this causes read(2) to read the same regions multiple times,
the performance penalty should be small compared to the reduction of
read(2) calls.

Summary:
With COMPILER_FREEBSD_VERSION, we use a numeric value that we bump each
time we make a change that requires re-bootstrapping, but with the
linker variant, we instead take the entire part after "FreeBSD", as in
this example version output:
LLD 9.0.1 (FreeBSD c1a0a213378a458fbea1a5c77b315c7dce08fd05-1300006) (compatible with GNU linkers)
E.g., LINKER_FREEBSD_VERSION is currently being set to
"c1a0a213378a458fbea1a5c77b315c7dce08fd05-1300006". This means that
*any* new upstream lld version will cause re-bootstrapping.
We should only look at the numerical field we append after a dash
instead. This review attempts to make it so.
The only thing I am not happy about is the post-processing of awk output
in Makefile.inc1. I notice that our awk does not have gensub(), so it
can't substitute a numbered sub-regex with \1, \2, etc. Suggestions
welcome. :)
