VSS stands for "Volume Shadow Copy Service". Unlike virtual machine
snapshot, it only takes snapshot for the virtual disks, so both
filesystem and applications have to aware of it, and cooperate the
whole VSS process.
This driver exposes two device files to the userland:
/dev/hv_fsvss_dev
Normally userland programs should _not_ mess with this device file.
It is currently used by the hv_vss_daemon(8), which freezes and
thaws the filesystem. NOTE: currently only UFS is supported, if
the system mounts _any_ other filesystems, the hv_vss_daemon(8)
will veto the VSS process.
If hv_vss_daemon(8) was disabled, then this device file must be
opened, and proper ioctls must be issued to keep the VSS working.
/dev/hv_appvss_dev
Userland application can opened this device file to receive the
VSS freeze notification, hold the VSS for a while (mainly to flush
application data to filesystem), release the VSS process, and
receive the VSS thaw notification i.e. applications can run again.
The VSS will still work, even if this device file is not opened.
However, only filesystem consistency is promised, if this device
file is not opened or is not operated properly.
hv_vss_daemon(8) is started by devd(8) by default. It can be disabled
by editting /etc/devd/hyperv.conf.

All the '.conf' files not beginning with a '.' contained int he directory
following the keyword will be included.
This keyword can only be used in the first level configuration files.
Modify the default syslogd.conf to 'include' /etc/syslog.d and
/usr/local/etc/syslog.d
It simplify a lot handling of syslog from automation tools.

that can be compiled on various OSes (including on older versions
of FreeBSD), make it possible to have it include the partitioning
scheme definitions without pulling in FreeBSD specifics.
In particular this means:
o move the scheme definitions iand related defines to header files
under sys/disk,
o make them (more) portable by using uint#_t (where applicable)
and renaming defines so that they at least have a good prefix,
o make the new headers stand-alone so that they don't need FreeBSD
definitions, like struct uuid(*)
o keep the original headers for compatibility, but rewrite them to
get the scheme definitions from <sys/disk/$scheme.h>.
(*) since UUID/GUID type definitions are non-portable and the GPT
scheme uses them, make it possible to have the scheme definitions
use an external type by allowing consumers of the header to set
GPT_UUID_TYPE. When GPT_UUID_TYPE has not been defined, the header
will use it's own type definition, which is the same as struct uuid.
The gpt_uuid_t typedef is created to abstract the details and allows
consumers to refer to a single type.
There is not conflict between the partitioning scheme headers and
what is defined in them. All headers can be included in the same
source files.
Note: consumers of the old headers have not been changed yet. Such
will be done if and when needed/beneficial.

evdev is a generic input event interface compatible with Linux
evdev API at ioctl level. It allows using unmodified (apart from
header name) input evdev drivers in Xorg, Wayland, Qt.
This commit has only generic kernel API. evdev support for individual
hardware drivers like ukbd, ums, atkbd, etc. will be committed later.
Project was started by Jakub Klama as part of GSoC 2014. Jakub's
evdev implementation was later used as a base, updated and finished
by Vladimir Kondratiev.

For all locales with variants:
- if no ambiguity on the locale (only one variant) just use the regular name
- if ambiguity, pick one as default and append @<variant> to the others
respecting POSIX
As a result:
- All the 3 components locales added recently are renamed to the usual 2
components version for all but sr_RS.UTF-8
- Set sr_RS.UTF-8 to the cyrillic variant
- Add sr_RS.UTF-8@latin
- Remove the symlinks aliases they were created to represent the 2 components
version as aliasas and are now useless
- Update the OptionalObsoleteFiles.inc and ObsoleteFiles.inc to reflect those

Fix the resource.fs.zfs.statechange message. It had a number of
problems:
It was only being emitted on a transition to the HEALTHY state.
That made it impossible for zfsd to take actions based on drives
getting sicker.
It compared the new state to vdev_prevstate, which is the state that
the vdev had the last time it was opened. That doesn't make sense,
because a vdev can change state multiple times without being
reopened.
vdev_set_state contains logic that will change the device's new
state based on various conditions. However, the statechange event
was being posted _before_ that logic took effect. Now it's being
posted after.

Two new functions are provided, bit_ffs_at() and bit_ffc_at(), which allow
for efficient searching of set or cleared bits starting from any bit offset
within the bit string.
Performance is improved by operating on longs instead of bytes and using
ffsl() for searches within a long. ffsl() is a compiler builtin in both
clang and gcc for most architectures, converting what was a brute force
while loop search into a couple of instructions.
All of the bitstring(3) API continues to be contained in the header file.
Some of the functions are large enough that perhaps they should be uninlined
and moved to a library, but that is beyond the scope of this commit.
sys/sys/bitstring.h:
Convert the majority of the existing bit string implementation from
macros to inline functions.
Properly protect the implementation from inadvertant macro expansion
when included in a user's program by prefixing all private
macros/functions and local variables with '_'.
Add bit_ffs_at() and bit_ffc_at(). Implement bit_ffs() and
bit_ffc() in terms of their "at" counterparts.
Provide a kernel implementation of bit_alloc(), making the full API
usable in the kernel.
Improve code documenation.
share/man/man3/bitstring.3:
Add pre-exisiting API bit_ffc() to the synopsis.
Document new APIs.
Document the initialization state of the bit strings
allocated/declared by bit_alloc() and bit_decl().
Correct documentation for bitstr_size(). The original code comments
indicate the size is in bytes, not "elements of bitstr_t". The new
implementation follows this lead. Only hastd assumed "elements"
rather than bytes and it has been corrected.
etc/mtree/BSD.tests.dist:
tests/sys/Makefile:
tests/sys/sys/Makefile:
tests/sys/sys/bitstring.c:
Add tests for all existing and new functionality.
include/bitstring.h
Include all headers needed by sys/bitstring.h
lib/libbluetooth/bluetooth.h:
usr.sbin/bluetooth/hccontrol/le.c:
Include bitstring.h instead of sys/bitstring.h.
sbin/hastd/activemap.c:
Correct usage of bitstr_size().
sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c
Use new bit_alloc.
sys/kern/subr_unit.c:
Remove hard-coded assumption that sizeof(bitstr_t) is 1. Get rid of
unrb.busy, which caches the number of bits set in unrb.map. When
INVARIANTS are disabled, nothing needs to know that information.
callapse_unr can be adapted to use bit_ffs and bit_ffc instead.
Eliminating unrb.busy saves memory, simplifies the code, and
provides a slight speedup when INVARIANTS are disabled.

Use the new kernel implementation of bit-alloc, instead of hacking
the old libc-dependent macro.

After calling the cap_init(3) function Casper will fork from it's original
process, using pdfork(2). Forking from a process has a lot of advantages:
1. We have the same cwd as the original process.
2. The same uid, gid and groups.
3. The same MAC labels.
4. The same descriptor table.
5. The same routing table.
6. The same umask.
7. The same cpuset(1).
From now services are also in form of libraries.
We also removed libcapsicum at all and converts existing program using Casper
to new architecture.
