in kern_gzio.c. The old gzio interface was somewhat inflexible and has not
worked properly since r272535: currently, the gzio functions are called with
a range lock held on the output vnode, but kern_gzio.c does not pass the
IO_RANGELOCKED flag to vn_rdwr() calls, resulting in deadlock when vn_rdwr()
attempts to reacquire the range lock. Moreover, the new gzio interface can
be used to implement kernel core compression.
This change also modifies the kernel configuration options needed to enable
userland core dump compression support: gzio is now an option rather than a
device, and the COMPRESS_USER_CORES option is removed. Core dump compression
is enabled using the kern.compress_user_cores sysctl/tunable.

then having the kernel relocate itself at runtime.
Implement the interace to create SR-IOV Virtual Functions (VFs).
When a driver registers that they support SR-IOV by calling
pci_setup_iov(), the SR-IOV code creates a new node in /dev/iov
for that device. An ioctl can be invoked on that device to
create VFs and have the driver initialize them.
At this point, allocating memory I/O windows (BARs) is not
supported.

The DS3231 has an integrated temperature-compensated crystal oscillator
(TXCO) and crystal.
DS3231 has a temperature sensor, an independent 32kHz output (which can be
turned on and off by the driver) and another output that can be used as
interrupt for alarms or as a second square-wave output, which frequency and
operation mode can be set by driver sysctl(8) knobs.

I discovered this while working on llvm/lld and realized export-dynamic

both - and --, switch this in our build system, because GNU ld supports
both modes, and because there's some hope lld will become the default linker
for FreeBSD in the future.

in kernel config files..
put VERBOSE_SYSINIT in it's own option header so the one file,
init_main.c, can use it instead of requiring an entire kernel recompile
to change one file..
The C standard undefines behavior when signed integers overflow. The
compiler toolchain has become more adept at detecting this and taking
advantage of faster undefined behavior. At the current time this has the
unfortunate effect of the clock stopping after 24 days of uptime.
clang makes no distinction between -fwrapv and -fno-strict-overflow. gcc
does treat them differently but -fwrapv is mature in gcc and is the
behavior are actually expecting.
