When all member nations of the Buenos Aires Convention adopted the Berne
Convention, the phrase "All rights reserved" became unnecessary to assert
copyright. Remove it from files under my or Panasas's copyright. The files

pfsync code is called for every new state, state update and state
deletion in pf. While pf itself can operate on multiple states at the
same time (on different cores, assuming the states hash to a different
hashrow), pfsync only had a single lock.
This greatly reduced throughput on multicore systems.
Address this by splitting the pfsync queues into buckets, based on the
state id. This ensures that updates for a given connection always end up
in the same bucket, which allows pfsync to still collapse multiple
updates into one, while allowing multiple cores to proceed at the same
time.
The number of buckets is tunable, but defaults to 2 x number of cpus.
Benchmarking has shown improvement, depending on hardware and setup, from ~30%
to ~100%.

Add the lb program, which is able to load-balance input traffic
received from a netmap port over M groups, with N netmap pipes in
each group. Each received packet is forwarded to one of the pipes
chosen from each group (using an L3/L4 connection-consistent hash function).
This also adds a man page for lb and some cross-references in related
man pages.

reordered in transit instead of dropping them altogether.
It uses sequence numbers of PPtPGRE packets.
A set of new sysctl(8) added to control this ability or disable it:
net.graph.pptpgre.reorder_max (1) defines maximum length of node's
private reorder queue used to keep data waiting for late packets.
Zero value disables reordering. Default value 1 allows the node to restore
the order for two packets swapped in transit. Greater values allow the node
to deliver packets being late after more packets in sequence
at cost of increased kernel memory usage.
net.graph.pptpgre.reorder_timeout (1) defines time value in miliseconds
used to wait for late packets. It may be useful to increase this
if reordering spot is distant.

This driver was marked as gone in 12. We're at 13 now. Remove it.
Data from nycbug's dmesg cache shows only one potential user,
suggesting it never was used much. However, even though this device
has been obsolete for 15 years at least, sys/joystick.h is included in
a number of graphics packages still, so that remains. A full exprun
is needed before that can be removed.
RelNotes: yes

I held the mistaken belief this was completely unused. While the
driver is unused and likely not relevant for a long time,
sys/joystick.h lives on in maybe half a dozen ports, even though
hardware to use it hasn't been widely used in maybe 15 years.
