freebsd with flexible iflib nic queues

an explicit comment that it's needed for the linuxolator. This is not the case anymore. For all other architectures there was only a "KEEP THIS". I'm (and other people too) running a COMPAT_43-less kernel since it's not necessary anymore for the linuxolator. Roman is running such a kernel for a for longer time. No problems so far. And I doubt other (newer than ia32 or alpha) architectures really depend on it. This may result in a small performance increase for some workloads. If the removal of COMPAT_43 results in a not working program, please recompile it and all dependencies and try again before reporting a problem. The only place where COMPAT_43 is needed (as in: does not compile without it) is in the (outdated/not usable since too old) svr4 code. Note: this does not remove the COMPAT_43TTY option.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
