These can be used to pass extra options to the mdmfs(8) utility,
to customize the finer details of the md file system creation
(i.e. to turn on/off softupdates, to specify a default owner for md
filesystem, etc).
Use these two new flags to mount tmpmfs and varmfs without
softupdates, since it doesn't make much sense to use SU on
malloc-backed file systems.

To start/stop/check on a specific device give the device name as
the second argument to the script:
# /etc/rc.d/moused start ums0
To use different rc.conf(5) knobs with different mice use the device
name as part of the knob. For example, if the mouse device is ums0, then:
moused_ums0_enable=yes
moused_ums0_flags="-z 4"
moused_ums0_port="/dev/ums0"
Starting rc.d/moused without the device argument will use the standard
moused_* flags. So, this commit should not disrupt or change current usage.
To preserve current behaviour with respect to usb mice, which appear
automatically when inserted, there is a new knob, moused_nondefault_enable,
which will treat any devices without rc.conf knobs as enabled.
To minimize knobs in /etc/rc.conf, the device file and pid file are
auto-computed, so that in the typical case for a usb mouse you don't
need to add anything extra in /etc/rc.conf to get it working.
Additionally, this updates /etc/usbd.conf to use the rc.d/moused script so
people don't have to modify it to configure their usb mouse anymore.

good idea, as they appear in the whatis(1) output. So
replace them with the lowercase version of the document
title. While here, do some tiny markup fixes.
eg:
[foo]
...
matches any executable 'foo'
[/usr/bin/foo/]
...
matches any executable under the directory /usr/bin/foo/
Exact matches continue to function as before.

thing, but we're ready to move on.
2. Remove the -g default argument in named_flags. It doesn't actually do
what most users think it does, and what most users want it to do is already
accomplished with a proper default group for the bind user, which we have.
Also, the -g knob does something entirely different in BIND 9, which leads
to a lot of needless confusion/aggravation.
3. In the rc.d script, don't bogusly override $command, or $rc_flags. Both
are adequately handled in rc.conf[.local].
4. DO properly override $rc_flags if user has named_chrootdir set.
This may need to be revisited, but should be ok for now.
5. Protect all chrootdir-related bits under that variable, instead of
named_rcng.
There is more work to be done here, especially in the area of BIND 9
compatibility, but this is a start at least.

buildworld targets by default, but allow it to be done for all user
targets by introducing a boolean option, named ALWAYS_CHECK_MAKE.
This change is by no means perfect and I don't even want to claim
this to be a solution. It does however address the fact that not
everybody likes to see make(1) rebuilt simply because the regression
test failed for some reason or other, including pilot error. It
therefore serves the purpose of keeping the crowd happy until we
have something better or simply reached a compromise.
The reasons for changing the default behaviour are:
o It avoids a negative, possibly non-intuitive option,
o It's according to POLA and fond of feet,
o Only buildworld is documented to do its best to be
successful at reasonably cost.

Both "product" and "build" ordering are rampant in /usr/src. This document

of our Makefiles is. This manpage documents that "smell".
