(1) We may have had sufficient entropy to consider Fortuna seeded, but the
random_fortuna_seeded() function would produce a false negative if
fs_counter was still zero. This condition could arise after
random_harvestq_prime() processed the /boot/entropy file and before any
read-type operation invoked "pre_read()." Fortuna's fs_counter variable is
only incremented (if certain conditions are met) by reseeding, which is
invoked by random_fortuna_pre_read().
is_random_seeded(9) was introduced in r346282, but the function was unused
prior to r346358, which introduced this regression. The regression broke
initial seeding of arc4random(9) and broke periodic reseeding[A], until something
other than arc4random(9) invoked read_random(9) or read_random_uio(9) directly.
(Such as userspace getrandom(2) or read(2) of /dev/random. By default,
/etc/rc.d/random does this during multiuser start-up.)
(2) The conditions under which Fortuna will reseed (including initial seeding)
are: (a) sufficient "entropy" (by sheer byte count; default 64) is collected
in the zeroth pool (of 32 pools), and (b) it has been at least 100ms since
the last reseed (to prevent trivial DoS; part of FS&K design). Prior to
this revision, initial seeding might have been prevented if the reseed
function was invoked during the first 100ms of boot.
This revision addresses both of these issues. If random_fortuna_seeded()
observes a zero fs_counter, it invokes random_fortuna_pre_read() and checks
again. This addresses the problem where entropy actually was sufficient,
but nothing had attempted a read -> pre_read yet.
The second change is to disable the 100ms reseed guard when Fortuna has
never been seeded yet (fs_lasttime == 0). The guard is intended to prevent
gratuitous subsequent reseeds, not initial seeding!
Machines running CURRENT between r346358 and this revision are encouraged to
refresh when possible. Keys generated by userspace with /dev/random or
getrandom(9) during this timeframe are safe, but any long-term session keys
generated by kernel arc4random consumers are potentially suspect.
[A]: Broken in the sense that is_random_seeded(9) false negatives would cause
arc4random(9) to (re-)seed with weak entropy (SHA256(cyclecount ||
FreeBSD_version)).

So, we should prevent our users from building obviously defective modules.
Therefore, remove the root cause of the building of modules outside of a

And remove all of DEBUG printfs as it is incomplete and in threaded

Historically we have not distinguished between kernel wirings and user
wirings for accounting purposes. User wirings (via mlock(2)) were
subject to a global limit on the number of wired pages, so if large
swaths of physical memory were wired by the kernel, as happens with
the ZFS ARC among other things, the limit could be exceeded, causing
user wirings to fail.
The change adds a new counter, v_user_wire_count, which counts the
number of virtual pages wired by user processes via mlock(2) and
mlockall(2). Only user-wired pages are subject to the system-wide
limit which helps provide some safety against deadlocks. In
particular, while sources of kernel wirings typically support some
backpressure mechanism, there is no way to reclaim user-wired pages
shorting of killing the wiring process. The limit is exported as
vm.max_user_wired, renamed from vm.max_wired, and changed from u_int
to u_long.
The choice to count virtual user-wired pages rather than physical
pages was done for simplicity. There are mechanisms that can cause
user-wired mappings to be destroyed while maintaining a wiring of
the backing physical page; these make it difficult to accurately
track user wirings at the physical page layer.
The change also closes some holes which allowed user wirings to succeed
even when they would cause the system limit to be exceeded. For
instance, mmap() may now fail with ENOMEM in a process that has called
mlockall(MCL_FUTURE) if the new mapping would cause the user wiring
limit to be exceeded.
Note that bhyve -S is subject to the user wiring limit, which defaults
to 1/3 of physical RAM. Users that wish to exceed the limit must tune
vm.max_user_wired.

Factor code into two functions.
read_exportfile() a functon which reads the exports file(s) and calls
get_exportlist_one() to process each of them.
delete_export() a function which deletes the exports in the kernel for a file
system.
The contents of these functions is just the same code as was used to do the
operations, moved into separate functions. As such, there is no semantic change.
This is being done in preparation for a future commit that will add an
option to do incremental changes of kernel exports upon receiving SIGHUP.

the allocation request, so that the blocks allocated are from the next
set of free blocks big enough to satisfy the minimum requirements of
the request, and the number of blocks allocated are as many as
possible, up to the specified maximum. The implementation of
swp_pager_getswapspace uses this parameter to ask for a number of
blocks between the new halved request size and the previous failed
request size. Thus a request for 32 blocks may fail, but instead of
getting only 16 blocks instead, the caller asks for 16 to 31 next, and
might get 19 or 27, which is closer to what they originally wanted.
I expect this to lead to bigger block allocations and less block
fragmentation, at least in some cases.

Instead of precalculating the different speed, respect the bus frequency
and calculate the clock register parameter based on it.
If the platform didn't register the core clk, fallback on the precomputed

No functional change.
tun_flags of the tuntap_driver was renamed to ident_flags to reflect the
fact that it's a subset of the tun_flags that identifies a tuntap device.
This maps more easily (visually) to the TUN_DRIVER_IDENT_MASK that masks off
the bits of tun_flags that are applicable to tuntap driver ident. This is a
purely cosmetic change.
This patch moves the code that removes and frees all exportlist elements
out into a separate function called free_exports().
It does the same for the insertion of a new exportlist entry into a list.
It also adds a second argument to ex_search() for the list to use.
None of these changes have any semantic effect. They are being done to
prepare the code for future patches that convert the single linked list
for the exportlist to a hash table of lists and a patch that will do
incremental changes of exports in the kernel.
And it fixes the argument for SLIST_HEAD_INITIALIZER() to be a pointer,
which doesn't really matter, since SLIST_HEAD_INITIALIZER() doesn't use
