NVMe conformance tests for the Format command failed if the
backing-storage for the bhyve device was a file instead of a Zvol. The
tests (and the specification) expect a Format to destroy all previously
written data. The bhyve NVMe emulation implements this by trimming /
deallocating all data from the backing-storage.
The blockif_candelete() function indicated the file did not support
deallocation (i.e. fpathconf(..., _PC_DEALLOC_PRESENT) returned FALSE)
even though the kernel supported file hole punching. This occurs on
builds with Capsicum enabled because blockif did not allow the
fpathconf(2) right.
Fix is to add CAP_FPATHCONF to the cap_rights_init(3) call.

bhyve can also make use of fspacectl(2) to implement BOP_DELETE with
hole-punching. Since it is not desirable to do zero-filling for large
DEALLOCATE/UNMAP range, candelete is not set if pathconf(2) indicates
that the underlying file system does not support native
VOP_DEALLOCATE(9).

Allow clients of blockif to register a resize callback handler. When
a callback is registered, register an EVFILT_VNODE kevent watching the
backing store for a change in the file's attributes. If the size has
changed when the kevent fires, invoke the clients' callback.
Currently resize detection is limited to backing stores that support
EVFILT_VNODE kevents such as regular files.

Replace the existing ad-hoc configuration via various global variables
with a small database of key-value pairs. The database supports
heirarchical keys using a MIB-like syntax to name the path to a given
key. Values are always stored as strings. The API used to manage
configuation values does include wrappers to handling boolean values.
Other values use non-string types require parsing by consumers.
The configuration values are stored in a tree using nvlists. Leaf
nodes hold string values. Configuration values are permitted to
reference other configuration values using '%(name)'. This permits
constructing template configurations.
All existing command line arguments now set configuration values. For
devices, the "-s" option parses its option argument to generate a list
of key-value pairs for the given device.
A new '-o' command line option permits setting an individual
configuration variable. The key name is always given as a full path
of dot-separated components.
A new '-k' command line option parses a simple configuration file.
This configuration file holds a flat list of 'key=value' lines where
the 'key' is the full path of a configuration variable. Lines
starting with a '#' are comments.
In general, bhyve starts by parsing command line options in sequence
and applying those settings to configuration values. Once this is
complete, bhyve then begins initializing its state based on the
configuration values. This means that subsequent configuration
options or files may override or supplement previously given settings.
A special 'config.dump' configuration value can be set to true to help
debug configuration issues. When this value is set, bhyve will print
out the configuration variables as a flat list of 'key=value' lines.
Most command line argments map to a single configuration variable,
e.g. '-w' sets the 'x86.strictmsr' value to false. A few command
line arguments have less obvious effects:
- Multiple '-p' options append their values (as a comma-seperated
list) to "vcpu.N.cpuset" values (where N is a decimal vcpu number).
- For '-s' options, a pci.<bus>.<slot>.<function> node is created.
The first argument to '-s' (the device type) is used as the value of
a "device" variable. Additional comma-separated arguments are then
parsed into 'key=value' pairs and used to set additional variables
under the device node. A PCI device emulation driver can provide
its own hook to override the parsing of the additonal '-s' arguments
after the device type.
After the configuration phase as completed, the init_pci hook
then walks the "pci.<bus>.<slot>.<func>" nodes. It uses the
"device" value to find the device model to use. The device
model's init routine is passed a reference to its nvlist node
in the configuration tree which it can query for specific
variables.
The result is that a lot of the string parsing is removed from
the device models and centralized. In addition, adding a new
variable just requires teaching the model to look for the new
variable.
- For '-l' options, a similar model is used where the string is
parsed into values that are later read during initialization.
One key note here is that the serial ports use the commonly
used lowercase names from existing documentation and examples
(e.g. "lpc.com1") instead of the uppercase names previously
used internally in bhyve.

Save and restore (also known as suspend and resume) permits a snapshot
to be taken of a guest's state that can later be resumed. In the
current implementation, bhyve(8) creates a UNIX domain socket that is
used by bhyvectl(8) to send a request to save a snapshot (and
optionally exit after the snapshot has been taken). A snapshot
currently consists of two files: the first holds a copy of guest RAM,
and the second file holds other guest state such as vCPU register
values and device model state.
To resume a guest, bhyve(8) must be started with a matching pair of
command line arguments to instantiate the same set of device models as
well as a pointer to the saved snapshot.
While the current implementation is useful for several uses cases, it
has a few limitations. The file format for saving the guest state is
tied to the ABI of internal bhyve structures and is not
self-describing (in that it does not communicate the set of device
models present in the system). In addition, the state saved for some
device models closely matches the internal data structures which might
prove a challenge for compatibility of snapshot files across a range
of bhyve versions. The file format also does not currently support
versioning of individual chunks of state. As a result, the current
file format is not a fixed binary format and future revisions to save
and restore will break binary compatiblity of snapshot files. The
goal is to move to a more flexible format that adds versioning,
etc. and at that point to commit to providing a reasonable level of
compatibility. As a result, the current implementation is not enabled
by default. It can be enabled via the WITH_BHYVE_SNAPSHOT=yes option
for userland builds, and the kernel option BHYVE_SHAPSHOT.

The Windows virtio driver ignores the advertized seg_max field and
assumes the host can accept up to 67 segments in indirect descriptors,
triggering an assert in the bhyve process.
This brings back r282922 but with a couple of changes:
- It raises the block interface segment limit to 128 instead of 67.
- Linux's virtio driver assumes that the segment limit is no
larger than the ring size. To avoid breaking Linux guests,
raise the VirtIO ring size to 128, and cap the VirtIO segment
limit at ring size - 2 (effectively 126).

that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
