This was added in r51337 as part of the implementation of
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED). Its objective was to ensure that the page daemon
would eventually reclaim other unreferenced pages (i.e., unreferenced pages
not touched by madvise()) from the active queue.
Now that the pagedaemon performs steady scanning of the active page queue,
this weighted handling is unnecessary. Instead, always "cache" clean pages
by moving them to the head of the inactive page queue. This simplifies the
implementation of vm_page_advise() and eliminates the fragmentation that
resulted from the distribution of pages among multiple queues.

some ctfmerge crashes that started to occur on i386 weeks after r274569 was
committed. Some later investigation indicated that the crashes were caused
by malformed CTF info that led to a stack overflow. The issue with CTF
info in i386 kernels seems to have been resolved by r261246, which updated
libdwarf and libelf.
r274569 fixes a bug which caused duplicate types to appear in the kernel's
CTF info. This duplication generally does not cause problems when using
DTrace, but makes it easier to hit the limit of 2^15 - 1 distinct type
definitions in a CTF container.

Go ahead and defined -D_STANDALONE for all targets (only strictly
needed for some architecture, but harmless on those it isn't required
for). Also add -msoft-float to all architectures uniformly rather

only gpiobus configured via FDT is supported. Bus enumeration is
supported. Devices are created for each device found. 1-Wire
temperature controllers are supported, but other drivers could be
written. Temperatures are polled and reported via a sysctl. Errors
are reported via sysctl counters. Mis-wired bus detection is included
for more trouble shooting. See ow(4), owc(4) and ow_temp(4) for
details of what's supported and known issues.
This has been tested on Raspberry Pi-B, Pi2 and Beagle Bone Black
with up to 7 devices.

The crop/drop-ovl fragment scrub modes are not very useful and likely to confuse
users into making poor choices.
It's also a fairly large amount of complex code, so just remove the support
altogether.
Users who have 'scrub fragment crop|drop-ovl' in their pf configuration will be
implicitly converted to 'scrub fragment reassemble'.

To make it easier to understand how Capsicum interacts with linkat() and
renameat(), rename the rights to CAP_{LINK,RENAME}AT_{SOURCE,TARGET}.
This also addresses a shortcoming in Capsicum, where it isn't possible
to disable linking to files stored in a directory. Creating hardlinks
essentially makes it possible to access files with additional rights.

Merge the end result of two upstream changes:
Original fix from 20141206:
+ modify MKlib_gen.sh to work around change in development version of
gcc introduced here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-06/msg02185.htmlhttps://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-07/msg00236.html
(reports by Marcus Shawcroft, Maohui Lei).
Later fixed in different manner in 20150725:
+ use alternate workaround for gcc 5.x feature (adapted from patch by
Mikhail Peselnik).
Feeding any file encoded in 8 bit locales such as KOI8-RU
to sort utility running under UTF-8 locale produces astonishing
result of recoding the output to UTF-8. To counter that, just
run sort under 'C' locale for now.
connectivity interact with the net80211 stack.
Historical background: originally wireless devices created an interface,
just like Ethernet devices do. Name of an interface matched the name of
the driver that created. Later, wlan(4) layer was introduced, and the
wlanX interfaces become the actual interface, leaving original ones as
"a parent interface" of wlanX. Kernelwise, the KPI between net80211 layer
and a driver became a mix of methods that pass a pointer to struct ifnet
as identifier and methods that pass pointer to struct ieee80211com. From
user point of view, the parent interface just hangs on in the ifconfig
list, and user can't do anything useful with it.
Now, the struct ifnet goes away. The struct ieee80211com is the only
KPI between a device driver and net80211. Details:
- The struct ieee80211com is embedded into drivers softc.
- Packets are sent via new ic_transmit method, which is very much like
the previous if_transmit.
- Bringing parent up/down is done via new ic_parent method, which notifies
driver about any changes: number of wlan(4) interfaces, number of them
in promisc or allmulti state.
- Device specific ioctls (if any) are received on new ic_ioctl method.
- Packets/errors accounting are done by the stack. In certain cases, when
driver experiences errors and can not attribute them to any specific
interface, driver updates ic_oerrors or ic_ierrors counters.
Details on interface configuration with new world order:
- A sequence of commands needed to bring up wireless DOESN"T change.
- /etc/rc.conf parameters DON'T change.
- List of devices that can be used to create wlan(4) interfaces is
now provided by net.wlan.devices sysctl.
Most drivers in this change were converted by me, except of wpi(4),
that was done by Andriy Voskoboinyk. Big thanks to Kevin Lo for testing
changes to at least 8 drivers. Thanks to pluknet@, Oliver Hartmann,
Olivier Cochard, gjb@, mmoll@, op@ and lev@, who also participated in
testing.

have .WAIT in the list which is strongly ordering. Rather than
try to second guess when to sort and when to not sort depending
