Being able to use tmpfs without kernel modules is very useful when building
small MFS_ROOT kernels without a real file system.
Including TMPFS also matches arm/GENERIC and the MIPS std.MALTA configs.
Compiling TMPFS only adds 4 .c files so this should not make much of a
difference to NO_MODULES build times (as we do for our minimal RISC-V
images).

Due to kldxref not being able to generate hints for nonnative platforms,
any cross built VM images do not have /boot/kernel/linker.hints.
This prevents the virtio modules from being loaded, as the fallback code
will always fail the version check when the hints are missing.
Since we want to be able to generate VM images for 32 bit powerpc, add the
virtio modules to GENERIC like we do on powerpc64.

Port aacraid driver to big-endian (BE) hosts.
The immediate goal of this change is to make it possible to use the
aacraid driver on PowerPC64 machines that have Adaptec Series 8 SAS
controllers.
Adapters supported by this driver expect FIB contents in little-endian
(LE) byte order. All FIBs have a fixed header part as well as a data
part that depends on the command being issued to the controller.
In this way, on BE hosts, the FIB header and all FIB data structures
used in aacraid.c and aacraid_cam.c need to be converted to LE before
being sent to the adapter and converted to BE when coming from it.
The functions to convert each struct are on aacraid_endian.c.
For little-endian (LE) targets, they are macros that expand
to nothing.
In some cases, when only a few fields of a large structure are used,
the fields are converted inline, by the code using them.

Since the DPAA code is from a third party, with minimal edits, there is no
intent to fix these specific warnings at this time. Hide these warnings to
prevent the noise from hiding real warnings.
This involved several changes:
* Since lld does not like text relocations, replace SMP boot page text relocs
in booke/locore.S with position-independent math, and track the virtual base
in the SMP boot page header.
* As some SPRs are interpreted differently on clang due to the way it handles
platform-specific SPRs, switch m*dear and m*esr mnemonics out for regular
m*spr. Add both forms of SPR_DEAR to spr.h so the correct encoding is selected.
* Change some hardcoded 32 bit things in the boot page to be pointer-sized, and
fix alignment.
* Fix 64-bit build of booke/pmap.c when enabling pmap debugging.
Additionally, I took the opportunity to document how the SMP boot page works.

Debugnet is a simplistic and specialized panic- or debug-time reliable
datagram transport. It can drive a single connection at a time and is
currently unidirectional (debug/panic machine transmit to remote server
only).
It is mostly a verbatim code lift from netdump(4). Netdump(4) remains
the only consumer (until the rest of this patch series lands).
The INET-specific logic has been extracted somewhat more thoroughly than
previously in netdump(4), into debugnet_inet.c. UDP-layer logic and up, as
much as possible as is protocol-independent, remains in debugnet.c. The
separation is not perfect and future improvement is welcome. Supporting
INET6 is a long-term goal.
Much of the diff is "gratuitous" renaming from 'netdump_' or 'nd_' to
'debugnet_' or 'dn_' -- sorry. I thought keeping the netdump name on the
generic module would be more confusing than the refactoring.
The only functional change here is the mbuf allocation / tracking. Instead
of initiating solely on netdump-configured interface(s) at dumpon(8)
configuration time, we watch for any debugnet-enabled NIC for link
activation and query it for mbuf parameters at that time. If they exceed
the existing high-water mark allocation, we re-allocate and track the new
high-water mark. Otherwise, we leave the pre-panic mbuf allocation alone.
In a future patch in this series, this will allow initiating netdump from
panic ddb(4) without pre-panic configuration.
No other functional change intended.

Many arm kernel configs bogusly specified WERROR=-Werror. There's no
reason for this because the default is that and there's no reason to
override. These date from a time when we needed to add additional
warning->error suppression. They are obsolete and were cut and paste
propagated from file to file.
Comment out all the WERROR=.... lines in powerpc. They aren't bogus,
but were appropriate for the old defaults for gcc4.2.1. Now that we've
made the policy decision to suppress -Werror by default on these
platforms, it is appropriate to comment these out. People wishing to
fix these errors can still un-comment them out, or say WERROR=-Werror
on the command line.
Fix two instances (cut and paste propagation) of hard-coded -Werror
in x86 code. Replace with ${WERROR} instead. This is a no-op change
except for people who build WERROR=-Wno-error :).
This should fix tinderbox / CI breakage.

x86 needs sc, as does sparc64. powerpc doesn't use it by default, but some old

removed it from powerpc LINT. It's not in daily use there, and the intent is to
100% switch to vt now that it works for that platform to limit support burden.
All the other architectures omit some or all of the screen savers from their
lint config. Move them to the x86 NOTES files and remove the exclusions. This
reduces slightly the number of savers sparc64 compiles, but since they are in
GENERIC, the overage is adequate and if someone reaelly wants to sort them out
in sparc64 they can sweat the details and the testing.

Having this option enabled by default on PowerPC64 kernels makes
booting ISO images much easier when on PowerNV.
With it, the ISO may simply be given to the -i flag of kexec.
Better yet, the ISO may be loop mounted on PetitBoot and its
kernel may be used to load itself.
Without this option, booting ISOs on remote PPC64 machines usually
involve preparing a separate kernel, with this option enabled.
Having IPSEC compiled into the kernel imposes a non-trivial
performance penalty on multi-threaded workloads due to IPSEC
refcounting. In my benchmarks of multi-threaded UDP
transmit (connected sockets), I've seen a roughly 20% performance
penalty when the IPSEC option is included in the kernel (16.8Mpps
vs 13.8Mpps with 32 senders on a 14 core / 28 HTT Xeon
2697v3)). This is largely due to key_addref() incrementing and
decrementing an atomic reference count on the default
policy. This cause all CPUs to stall on the same cacheline, as it
bounces between different CPUs.
Given that relatively few users use ipsec, and that it can be
loaded as a module, it seems reasonable to ask those users to
load the ipsec module so as to avoid imposing this penalty on the
GENERIC kernel. Its my hope that this will make FreeBSD look
better in "out of the box" benchmark comparisons with other
operating systems.

tun(4) and tap(4) share the same general management interface and have a lot
in common. Bugs exist in tap(4) that have been fixed in tun(4), and
vice-versa. Let's reduce the maintenance requirements by merging them
together and using flags to differentiate between the three interface types
(tun, tap, vmnet).
This fixes a couple of tap(4)/vmnet(4) issues right out of the gate:
- tap devices may no longer be destroyed while they're open [0]
- VIMAGE issues already addressed in tun by kp
[0] emaste had removed an easy-panic-button in r240938 due to devdrn
blocking. A naive glance over this leads me to believe that this isn't quite
complete -- destroy_devl will only block while executing d_* functions, but
doesn't block the device from being destroyed while a process has it open.
The latter is the intent of the condvar in tun, so this is "fixed" (for
certain definitions of the word -- it wasn't really broken in tap, it just
wasn't quite ideal).
ifconfig(8) also grew the ability to map an interface name to a kld, so
that `ifconfig {tun,tap}0` can continue to autoload the correct module, and
`ifconfig vmnet0 create` will now autoload the correct module. This is a
low overhead addition.
(MFC commentary)
This may get MFC'd if many bugs in tun(4)/tap(4) are discovered after this,
and how critical they are. Changes after this are likely easily MFC'd
without taking this merge, but the merge will be easier.
I have no plans to do this MFC as of now.

Initial NUMA support:
- associate CPU with domain
- associate memory ranges with domain
- identify domain for devices
- limit device interrupt binding to appropriate domain
- Additionally fixes a bug in the setting of Maxmem which led to
only memory attached to the first socket being enabled for DMA
A pmap variant can opt in to numa support by by calling `numa_mem_regions`
at the end of pmap_bootstrap - registering the corresponding ranges with the
VM.
This yields a ~20% improvement in build times of llvm on dual socket POWER9
over non-NUMA.
