Normally, count=n means read(2) will be called n times on the input to dd. If
the read() returns short, as may happen when reading from a pipe, fewer bytes
will be copied from the input. With conv=sync the buffer is padded with zeros
to fill the rest of the block.
iflag=fullblock causes dd to continue reading until the block is full, so that
count=n means n full blocks are copied. This flag is compatible with illumos
and GNU dd and is used in the ZFS test suite.

Output padding is specified via outlen, which is set using the return value
of fprintf. Because it's printing that padding plus a trailing byte, it
grows by one each iteration rather than reflecting actual length.
Additionally, iec was sized improperly for scaling up similarly to si.
Fixing this revealed that the humanize_number(3) call to populate persec

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.

dd(1) casts many of its numeric arguments from uintmax_t to intmax_t and
back again to detect whether or not the original arguments were negative.
This is not correct, and causes problems with boundary cases, for example
when count is SSIZE_MAX-1.

after r298107
Summary of changes:
- Replace all instances of FILES/TESTS with ${PACKAGE}FILES. This ensures that
namespacing is kept with FILES appropriately, and that this shouldn't need
to be repeated if the namespace changes -- only the definition of PACKAGE
needs to be changed
- Allow PACKAGE to be overridden by callers instead of forcing it to always be
`tests`. In the event we get to the point where things can be split up
enough in the base system, it would make more sense to group the tests
with the blocks they're a part of, e.g. byacc with byacc-tests, etc
- Remove PACKAGE definitions where possible, i.e. where FILES wasn't used
previously.
- Remove unnecessary TESTSPACKAGE definitions; this has been elided into
bsd.tests.mk
- Remove unnecessary BINDIRs used previously with ${PACKAGE}FILES;
${PACKAGE}FILESDIR is now automatically defined in bsd.test.mk.
- Fix installation of files under data/ subdirectories in lib/libc/tests/hash
and lib/libc/tests/net/getaddrinfo
- Remove unnecessary .include <bsd.own.mk>s (some opportunistic cleanup)
Document the proposed changes in share/examples/tests/tests/... via examples
so it's clear that ${PACKAGES}FILES is the suggested way forward in terms of
replacing FILES. share/mk/bsd.README didn't seem like the appropriate method
of communicating that info.

as a result the write was never performed. This new implementation
instead uses ftruncate(2) to extend the file with a trailing hole.
