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.

This option was added as a transition aide when symbol versioning was
first added. It was enabled by default in 2007 and is supported even
by the old GPLv2 binutils. Trying to disable it currently fails to
build in libc and at this point it isn't worth fixing the build.

For head/, this will remain eternally default-on to maintain the status quo.
For stable/ branches, it should be flipped to default-off to maintain the
status quo.
There's value in being able to flip it one way or the other easily on head
or stable branches, whether you want to gain some performance back on head/
(for machines there's little chance you'll actually hit an assertion) or
potentially diagnose a problem with the version of llvm on an older branch.
Currently, stable branches get the CFLAGS+= -ndebug line uncommented; going
forward, they will instead have the default of LLVM_ASSERTIONS flipped.

In-tree gdb is essentially obsolete. We kept it for sparc64 (because
gdb in ports lacked sparc64 support) and as a fallback for crashinfo.
gdb was installed to /libexec on all archs other than sparc64, where the
WITHOUT_GDB_LIBEXEC option was default, with gdb installed to /usr/bin.
With sparc64's retirement WITH_GDB_LIBEXEC became the default for all
architectures, but it was still possible to set it off and install gdb
into /usr/bin.
As the next step in gdb's retirement, remove the option and install gdb
only into /libexec as the crashinfo fallback. We expect users to install
the gdb port or package for debugging. The in-tree gdb lacks support for
a number of supported architectures and does not support contemporary
DWARF debug info.

Now that we no longer have GCC 4.2.1 in the tree and can assume FreeBSD

unconditionally and retire the GPL dtc.
GPL dtc now has FreeBSD CI support via Cirrus-CI to help ensure it
continues to build/work on FreeBSD and is available in the ports tree
if needed.

As described in Warner's email message[1] to the FreeBSD-arch mailing
list we have reached GCC 4.2.1's retirement date. At this time all
supported architectures either use in-tree Clang, or rely on external
toolchain (i.e., a contemporary GCC version from ports).
GCC 4.2.1 was released July 18, 2007 and was imported into FreeBSD later
that year, in r171825. GCC has served us well, but version 4.2.1 is
obsolete and not used by default on any architecture in FreeBSD. It
does not support modern C and does not support arm64 or RISC-V.
Thanks to everyone responsible for maintaining, updating, and testing
GCC in the FreeBSD base system over the years.
So long, and thanks for all the fish.

simple_httpd was granted a reprieve from the picobsd removal based on having
some reported user; it turns out this user isn't actually using the version
in base and merging their changes would be difficult at this point, so the
version in base will simply continue to rot. Retire it now, it may make a
comeback to ports with the improved version.
No notice issued because its current visibility has only been for ~3
months, and a notice has been previously issued about picobsd removal.
In order to do so we need to install the msdosfs headers to the bootstrap
sysroot and avoid includes of kernel headers that may not exist on every
host (e.g. sys/lockmgr.h). This change should allow bootstrapping of makefs
on FreeBSD 11+ as well as Linux and macOS.
We also have to avoid using the IO_SYNC macro since that may not be
available. In makefs it is only used to switch between calling
bwrite() and bdwrite() which both call the same function. Therefore we
can simply always call bwrite().
For our CheriBSD builds we always bootstrap makefs by setting
LOCAL_XTOOL_DIRS='lib/libnetbsd usr.sbin/makefs' and use the makefs binary
from the build tree to create a bootable disk image.

${WORLDTMP}/legacy/usr/libexec will only have libexec/ bits that we've
pushed as bootstrap tools, so this is generally safe to include prior to
PATH. The following are the ramifications of this change:
- BPATH addition gets us at least bootstrap flua in WMAKEENV path for
buildenv, for those earlier systems where it's bootstrapped still
- Reworked the sysent target to just set PATH and let it get worked out in
src.lua.mk or individual sysent makefiles -- this gives us back the
ability to overwrite LUA_CMD and use a different/external lua for these
targets. sysent can also now work cleanly in buildenv.
- tools/build/Makefile will now symlink the host flua into build's host
tools so that the above can work without needing to add the host's
/usr/libexec explicitly into TMPPATH.
