Specification, Version 2, but marked as legacy, and have been removed from
later specifications. After 12 years it is time to remove them from new
architectures when the main use for sbrk is an invalid method to attempt
to find how much memory has been allocated from malloc.
There are a few places in the tree that still call sbrk, however they are
not used on arm64. They will need to be fixed to cross build from arm64,
but these will be fixed in a follow up commit.
Old copies of binutils from ports called into sbrk, however this has been
fixed around 6 weeks ago. It is advised to update binutils on arm64 before
installing a world that includes this change.

Kernel installs always override KMODDIR when installing modules, so
this default setting is only used for standalone module builds. Many
out-of-tree modules manually override KMODDIR already to avoid placing
modules in /boot/kernel. This now makes that behavior the default.

On some architectures, u_long isn't large enough for resource definitions.
Particularly, powerpc and arm allow 36-bit (or larger) physical addresses, but
type `long' is only 32-bit. This extends rman's resources to uintmax_t. With
this change, any resource can feasibly be placed anywhere in physical memory
(within the constraints of the driver).
Why uintmax_t and not something machine dependent, or uint64_t? Though it's
possible for uintmax_t to grow, it's highly unlikely it will become 128-bit on
32-bit architectures. 64-bit architectures should have plenty of RAM to absorb
the increase on resource sizes if and when this occurs, and the number of
resources on memory-constrained systems should be sufficiently small as to not
pose a drastic overhead. That being said, uintmax_t was chosen for source
clarity. If it's specified as uint64_t, all printf()-like calls would either
need casts to uintmax_t, or be littered with PRI*64 macros. Casts to uintmax_t
aren't horrible, but it would also bake into the API for
resource_list_print_type() either a hidden assumption that entries get cast to
uintmax_t for printing, or these calls would need the PRI*64 macros. Since
source code is meant to be read more often than written, I chose the clearest
path of simply using uintmax_t.
Tested on a PowerPC p5020-based board, which places all device resources in
0xfxxxxxxxx, and has 8GB RAM.

pxeboot in tftp loader mode (when built with LOADER_TFTP_SUPPORT) now
prefix all the path to open with the path obtained via the option 'root-path'
directive.
This allows to be able to use the traditional content /boot out of box. Meaning
it now works pretty much like all other loaders. It simplifies hosting hosting
multiple version of FreeBSD on a tftp server.
As a consequence, pxeboot does not look anymore for a pxeboot.4th (which was
never provided)

Say it with me, "I will not chain commands with && in Makefiles"
This was originally fixed and explained quite well by bde@ in r36074. The
initial bmake integration caused 'set -e' to stop being used which lead to
r252419. Later 'set -e' expectations were fixed with bmake in r254980.
Because of the && here, errors would be ignored when building in parallel and
a dependency failed. Such as bootstrap-tools since it builds everything in
parallel. If any tool failed in obj/depend/all, it would just ignore the error
and continue to build. This later would result in cascaded errors that only
confused the real issue. This could also cause commands after the failed
command to still execute, leading to more confusion.
This should be fine if the command is in a sub-shell such as: (cmd1 && cmd2)
This reverts r252419.

inconsistency when installing new locales and may also result in failures
when reinstalling after having run make delete-old (due to previous
inconsistencies) for now recommand removing all locales until install(1) is
fixed
Bmake has a documented feature of '-N' to skip executing commands which is
specifically intended for debugging top-level builds and not recursing into
sub-directories. This matches the older 'make -n' behavior we added which made
'-n -n' the recursing target and '-n' a non-recursing target.
Removing the '-n -n' feature allows the build to work as documented in
the bmake manpage with '-n' and '-N'. The older '-n -n' feature was also
not documented anywhere that I could see.
Note that the ${_+_} var is still needed as currently bmake incorrectly
executes '+' commands when '-N' is specified.
The '-n' and '-n -n' features were broken for several reasons prior to this.
r251748 made '_+_' never expand with '-n -n' which resulted in many
sub-directories not being visited until fixed 2 years later in r288391, and
many targets were given .MAKE over the past few years which resulted in
non-sub-make commands, such as rm and ln and mtree, to be executed.
This should also allow removing some indirection hacks in bsd.subdir.mk and
other cases of .USE that have a .MAKE by using '+'.

target. This is the feeder for mergemaster / etcupdate. This change
makes installworld/mergemaster/etcupdate behave the same regardless of
whether SENDMAIL_MC or SENDMAIL_CF is used.
If you use a custom SENDMAIL_MC/CF in make.conf and excluded it from
mergemaster.rc/etcupdate.conf to work around the conflicts, you may wish
to revert that or change it from 'ignore' to 'always install'.
If you do not use a custom SENDMAIL_MC/CF, there should be no change in
behavior.
This avoids needing a large boot partition / file system in order to
accommodate multiple kernels, and provides consistency with userland
debug. This also simplifies the process of moving kernel debug files
to a separate package and installing them on demand.
In addition, change kernel debug file extension to .debug, to match
userland debug files.
When using the supported kernel installation method the
/usr/lib/debug/boot/kernel directory will be renamed (to kernel.old)
as is done with /boot/kernel.
Developers wishing to maintain the historical behavior of installing
debug files in /boot/kernel/ can set KERN_DEBUGDIR="" in src.conf(5).
