Please note that this can't be done while such processes run in jails.
Note: in future it would be interesting to find a way to do that
selectively for any desired proccess (choosen by user himself), probabilly
via a ptrace interface or whatever.

Right now syscons(4) uses a cons25-style terminal emulator. The
disadvantages of that are:
- Little compatibility with embedded devices with serial interfaces.
- Bad bandwidth efficiency, mainly because of the lack of scrolling
regions.
- A very hard transition path to support for modern character sets like
UTF-8.
Our terminal emulation library, libteken, has been supporting
xterm-style terminal emulation for months, so flip the switch and make
everyone use an xterm-style console driver.
I still have to enable this on i386. Right now pc98 and i386 share the
same /etc/ttys file. I'm not going to switch pc98, because it uses its
own Kanji-capable cons25 emulator.
IMPORTANT: What to do if things go wrong (i.e. graphical artifacts):
- Run the application inside script(1), try to reduce the problem and
send me the log file.
- In the mean time, you can run `vidcontrol -T cons25' and `export
TERM=cons25' so you can run applications the same way you did before.
You can also build your kernel with `options TEKEN_CONS25' to make all
virtual terminals use the cons25 emulator by default.

This will make it more easy for people to experiment with TERM=xterm.
Instead of echoing these strange escape sequences, I can just instruct
them to run `vidcontrol -T xterm'.
offer to install an SMP kernel. The way this worked was: on supported
platforms, code to read ACPI tables and BIOS MP tables was compiled into
sysinstall, and if an SMP kernel config was present in the source tree when
sysinstall was built, code that called it was also compiled. Since we
haven't had SMP kernel configs in years, the latter was never compiled and
the former never ran.
This only removes dead and unreachable code; it does *not* remove the NCpus
variable, nor the code that sets it to 1, nor the code that asks the user to
select a kernel from a list.

Just take keyent_t to use an u_int to store the Unicode codepoints.
Unfortunately the keymap is now too big to be loaded using an ioctl
argument, so change the ioctl to pick a pointer.
This change breaks kbdcontrol ABI. It doesn't break X11, because X11
doesn't do anything with syscons keymaps. It just switches the device
out of K_XLATE.

automatic link-local address configuration:
- Convert a sysctl net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv to one for the
default value of a per-IF flag ND6_IFF_ACCEPT_RTADV, not a
global knob. The default value of the sysctl is 0.
- Add a new per-IF flag ND6_IFF_AUTO_LINKLOCAL and convert a
sysctl net.inet6.ip6.auto_linklocal to one for its default
value. The default value of the sysctl is 1.
- Make ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED more robust. It can be used to disable
IPv6 functionality of an interface now.
- Receiving RA is allowed if ip6_forwarding==0 *and*
ND6_IFF_ACCEPT_RTADV is set on that interface. The former
condition will be revisited later to support a "host + router" box
like IPv6 CPE router. The current behavior is compatible with
the older releases of FreeBSD.
- The ifconfig(8) now supports these ND6 flags as well as "nud",
"prefer_source", and "disabled" in ndp(8). The ndp(8) now
supports "auto_linklocal".

Rather than writing out a MID of '0', write a MID of 0x86 (aka
MID_I386) so that file gets it right.
This is a nop for boot2. It just checks the MAGIC part of the field,
ignoring the MID. boot2 is the only thing that loads this file, and
only on x86 so the MID_i386 is always the right value (the rest of the
code is already x86 specific).
