- Create a separate 'return values' section and move some statements about
return values to that section.
- Note that each invocation of va_start() and va_copy() must be paired with
va_end() in the same function.

allow mrsas(4) from LSI to attach to newer LSI cards that are support by
mrsas(4). If mrsas(4) is not loaded into the system at boot then mfi(4)
will always attach. If a modified mrsas(4) is loaded in the system. That
modification is return "-30" in it's probe since that is between
BUS_PROBE_DEFAULT and BUS_PROBE_LOW_PRIORITY.
This option is controller by a new probe flag "MFI_FLAGS_MRSAS" in mfi_ident
that denotes cards that should work with mrsas(4). New entries that should
have this option.
This is the first step to get mrsas(4) checked into FreeBSD and to avoid
collision with people that use mrsas(4) from LSI. Since mfi(4) takes
priority, then mrsas(4) users need to rebuild GENERIC. Using the
.disabled="1" method doesn't work since that blocks attaching and the
probe gave it to mfi(4).
Discussed with: LSI (Kashyap Desai)
which deals with the "ix prefix being shared by two drivers"
situation is forthcoming.
Thanks to dwhite for the ixgbe history lesson.

Add an option WITHOUT_NCURSESW to suppress building and linking to
libncursesw. While wide character support it useful we'd like to
only need one ncurses library on embedded systems.

Introduce a TAP_TESTS_PERL primitive to list test programs written in perl.
Only do this in tap.test.mk because I only expect perl-based test programs
with this interface.
This is very similar to TAP_TESTS_SH but the difference is that we record
in the Kyuafile that the test program requires a perl interpreter. This
in turn makes Kyua mark the test as skipped if the perl package is not yet
installed, instead of mysteriously failing to run the program.

Introduce a new, per-test-program TEST_METADATA.<program> variable that
contains a list of key/value paris describing metadata properties for
that test program. These properties are later written into the
auto-generated Kyuafile when using the KYUAFILE=auto functionality.
This is to avoid having to supply hand-crafted Kyuafiles when the needs
for metadata overrides are trivial.
While doing this, and because I am documenting TEST_METADATA, take the
chance to document the TEST_INTERFACE setting as well.

When generating a Kyuafile in the KYUAFILE=auto case, use a filename
that is unlikely to clash with the filename used by explicitly-provided
Kyuafiles.
This allows a Makefile to set KYUAFILE=yes and provide a Kyuafile in
the same directory when such Makefile was previously relying on
KYUAFILE=auto.
Fixes issues with new Kyuafiles not being picked up in NO_CLEAN builds
(although manual intervention is required once, unfortunately, as
described in UPDATING).

The origin of WEP comes from IEEE Std 802.11-1997 where it defines
whether the frame body of MAC frame has been encrypted using WEP
algorithm or not.
IEEE Std. 802.11-2007 changes WEP to Protected Frame, indicates
whether the frame is protected by a cryptographic encapsulation
algorithm.

Most relevant features:
- netmap emulation on any NIC, even those without native netmap support.
On the ixgbe we have measured about 4Mpps/core/queue in this mode,
which is still a lot more than with sockets/bpf.
- seamless interconnection of VALE switch, NICs and host stack.
If you disable accelerations on your NIC (say em0)
ifconfig em0 -txcsum -txcsum
you can use the VALE switch to connect the NIC and the host stack:
vale-ctl -h valeXX:em0
allowing sharing the NIC with other netmap clients.
- THE USER API HAS SLIGHTLY CHANGED (head/cur/tail pointers
instead of pointers/count as before). This was unavoidable to support,
in the future, multiple threads operating on the same rings.
Netmap clients require very small source code changes to compile again.
On the plus side, the new API should be easier to understand
and the internals are a lot simpler.
The manual page has been updated extensively to reflect the current
features and give some examples.
This is the result of work of several people including Giuseppe Lettieri,
Vincenzo Maffione, Michio Honda and myself, and has been financially
supported by EU projects CHANGE and OPENLAB, from NetApp University
Research Fund, NEC, and of course the Universita` di Pisa.
