NANDFS has been broken for years. Remove it. The NAND drivers that
remain are for ancient parts that are no longer relevant. They are
polled, have terrible performance and just for ancient arm
hardware. NAND parts have evolved significantly from this early work
and little to none of it would be relevant should someone need to
update to support raw nand. This code has been off by default for
years and has violated the vnode protocol leading to panics since it
was committed.

This makes the resulting locale data in EL->EB (amd64->powerpc64) cross
build and in the native EB build match. Revert the changes done to libc
in r308170 as they are no longer needed.

Rather then combining hardlink creation for the geom(8) binary with
shared library build, move libraries to src/lib/geom so they are
built and installed normally. Create a common Makefile.classes
which is included by both lib/geom/Makefile and sbin/geom/Makefile
so the symlink and libraries stay in sync.
The relocation of libraries allows libraries to be build for 32-bit
compat. This also reduces the number of non-standard builds in
the system.
This commit is not sufficent to run a 32-bit /sbin/geom on a 64-bit
system out of the box as it will look in the wrong place for libraries
unless GEOM_LIBRARY_PATH is set appropriatly in the environment.

ConnectX-4/5 devices in mlx5core.
The dump is obtained by reading a predefined register map from the
non-destructive crspace, accessible by the vendor-specific PCIe
capability (VSC). The dump is stored in preallocated kernel memory and
managed by the mlx5tool(8), which communicates with the driver using a
character device node.
The utility allows to store the dump in format
<address> <value>
into a file, to reset the dump content, and to manually initiate the
dump.
A call to mlx5_fwdump() should be added at the places where a dump
must be fetched automatically. The most likely place is right before a
firmware reset request.

has been switched to libedit long ago, libreadline was built as an
internallib for a while and kept only for gdbtui which was broken using
libreadline.
Since gdb has been mostly deorbitted in all arches, gdbtui was only installed
on arm and sparc64, given it has been removed, gdb has been switched to use
libedit, no consumers are left for libreadline. Thus this removal
only installed on arm and sparc64.
It is the only bits that keeps us having libreadline in base
The rest of gdb can be switched to libedit and will be in another

xlint is currently a fossil. We have much more useful and alive tools
to do now what xlint did twenty years ago.
I did not cleared some stuff which makes lint operational, in
sys/x86/include and sys/sys, but I might do it as followup. The
x86/include/ucontext.h and _types.h hacks made to please lint was the
main reason for my initial proposal to classify xlint as obsolete and
to remove it.
Also I do not intend to clear sccs ids.

The si(4) driver supported multiport serial adapters for ISA, EISA, and
PCI buses. This driver does not use bus_space, instead it depends on
direct use of the pointer returned by rman_get_virtual(). It is also

The change in r284345 moved the creation of openpam_static_modules.o to
lib/libpam/static_modules but never managed to get them into libpam.a.
Move this logic to lib/libpam/static_libpam and have it create a static
library for libpam.a The main lib/libpam/libpam will only create a
shared library. No redundancy in compilation or installation exists
in this solution.
This avoids requiring a pass with -D_NO_LIBPAM_SO_YET.
