- Switch to using 32b port/link capabilities in the driver. The 32b
format is used internally by firmwares > 1.16.45.0 and the driver will
now interact with the firmware in its native format, whether it's 16b
or 32b. Note that the 16b format doesn't have room for 50G, 200G, or
400G speeds.

Currently, the per-queue limit is a function of the receive buffer
size and the MSS. In certain cases (such as connections with large
receive buffers), the per-queue segment limit can be quite large.
Because we process segments as a linked list, large queues may not
perform acceptably.
The better long-term solution is to make the queue more efficient.
But, in the short-term, we can provide a way for a system
administrator to set the maximum queue size.
We set the default queue limit to 100. This is an effort to balance
performance with a sane resource limit. Depending on their
environment, goals, etc., an administrator may choose to modify this
limit in either direction.

Add the ioctl PCIOCBARMMAP on /dev/pci to conveniently create
userspace mapping of a PCI device BAR. This is enormously superior to
read the BAR value with PCIOCREAD and then try to mmap /dev/mem, and
should allow to automatically activate the mapped BARs when needed in
future.
Current implementation creates new sg pager for each user mmap
request. If the pointer (and reference) to a managed device pager is
stored in pci_map, we would be able to revoke all mappings on the BAR
deactivation or relocation. This is related to the unimplemented BAR
activation on mmap, and is postponed for the future.

Some section-4 manpages are architecture-specific, and the build process
currently generates only the pages for the MACHINE_CPUARCH being built.
man(1) supports a '-m' option to find manpages belonging to an arbitrary
architecture other than the MACHINE_[CPU]ARCH, but we have no way to
generate and install alternate-arch pages right now.
This change adds a new make.conf variable, MAN_ARCH, which can be a list of
one or more MACHINE_ARCH or MACHINE_CPUARCH values. All arch-specific
manpages that exist for the named arches will be installed. If unset, it
continues the behavior of installing just the MACHINE_CPUARCH being built.

Code analysis and runtime analysis using truss(8) indicate that the only
privileged operations performed by ntpd are adjusting system time, and
(re-)binding to privileged UDP port 123. These changes add a new mac(4)
policy module, mac_ntpd(4), which grants just those privileges to any
process running with uid 123.
This also adds a new user and group, ntpd:ntpd, (uid:gid 123:123), and makes
them the owner of the /var/db/ntp directory, so that it can be used as a
location where the non-privileged daemon can write files such as the
driftfile, and any optional logfile or stats files.
Because there are so many ways to configure ntpd, the question of how to
configure it to run without root privs can be a bit complex, so that will be
addressed in a separate commit. These changes are just what's required to
grant the limited subset of privs to ntpd, and the small change to ntpd to
prevent it from exiting with an error if running as non-root.
