Save and restore (also known as suspend and resume) permits a snapshot
to be taken of a guest's state that can later be resumed. In the
current implementation, bhyve(8) creates a UNIX domain socket that is
used by bhyvectl(8) to send a request to save a snapshot (and
optionally exit after the snapshot has been taken). A snapshot
currently consists of two files: the first holds a copy of guest RAM,
and the second file holds other guest state such as vCPU register
values and device model state.
To resume a guest, bhyve(8) must be started with a matching pair of
command line arguments to instantiate the same set of device models as
well as a pointer to the saved snapshot.
While the current implementation is useful for several uses cases, it
has a few limitations. The file format for saving the guest state is
tied to the ABI of internal bhyve structures and is not
self-describing (in that it does not communicate the set of device
models present in the system). In addition, the state saved for some
device models closely matches the internal data structures which might
prove a challenge for compatibility of snapshot files across a range
of bhyve versions. The file format also does not currently support
versioning of individual chunks of state. As a result, the current
file format is not a fixed binary format and future revisions to save
and restore will break binary compatiblity of snapshot files. The
goal is to move to a more flexible format that adds versioning,
etc. and at that point to commit to providing a reasonable level of
compatibility. As a result, the current implementation is not enabled
by default. It can be enabled via the WITH_BHYVE_SNAPSHOT=yes option
for userland builds, and the kernel option BHYVE_SHAPSHOT.

This option was added as a transition aide when symbol versioning was
first added. It was enabled by default in 2007 and is supported even
by the old GPLv2 binutils. Trying to disable it currently fails to
build in libc and at this point it isn't worth fixing the build.

- Add a new TCP_RXTLS_ENABLE socket option to set the encryption and
authentication algorithms and keys as well as the initial sequence
number.
- When reading from a socket using KTLS receive, applications must use
recvmsg(). Each successful call to recvmsg() will return a single
TLS record. A new TCP control message, TLS_GET_RECORD, will contain
the TLS record header of the decrypted record. The regular message
buffer passed to recvmsg() will receive the decrypted payload. This
is similar to the interface used by Linux's KTLS RX except that
Linux does not return the full TLS header in the control message.
- Add plumbing to the TOE KTLS interface to request either transmit
or receive KTLS sessions.
- When a socket is using receive KTLS, redirect reads from
soreceive_stream() into soreceive_generic().
- Note that this interface is currently only defined for TLS 1.1 and
1.2, though I believe we will be able to reuse the same interface
and structures for 1.3.

It is not valid to pass BUS_SPACE_UNRESTRICTED to bus_dma_tag_create()'s
nsegments parameter as it is interpreted as a very large segment count.
Subsequent allocation operations on the tag will preallocate some multiple of
that count. BUS_SPACE_UNRESTRICTED therefore indicates something like:
malloc(infinity).

This change allows any downstream or otherwise consumer to easily override
the new -fno-common default on a temporary basis without having to hack into
src.sys.mk, and also makes it a bit easier to search for these specific
cases where -fno-common must be overridden with -fcommon or else the build
will fail.
The gdb build, the only program requiring -fcommon on head/, is switched
over as an example usage. It will need it on all branches, so this does not
harm future mergability.

-fno-common will become the default in GCC10/LLVM11. Plenty of work has been
put in to make sure our world builds are no -fno-common clean, so let's slap
the build with this until it becomes the compiler default to ensure we don't
regress.
At this time, we will not be enforcing -fno-common on ports builds. I
suspect most ports will be or quickly become -fno-common clean as they're
naturally built against compilers that default to it, so this will hopefully
become a non-issue in due time. The exception to this, which is actually the
status quo, is that kmods built from ports will continue to build with
-fno-common.
As of the time of writing, I intend to also make stable/12 -fno-common
clean. What's been done will be MFC'd to stable/11 if it's easily applicable
and/or not much work to massage it into being functional, but I anticipate
adding -fcommon to stable/11 builds to maintain its ability to be built with
newer compilers for the rest of its lifetime instead of putting in a third
branch's worth of effort.
instead of sprinkling them out over many disjoint files. This is a follow-up
to achieve the same goal in an incomplete rev.348521.

By using -nobuiltininc and adding the clang builtin headers resource dir
to the end of the compiler header search path, we can still find headers
such as immintrin.h but find the FreeBSD version of stddef.h/stdarg.h/..
first.
This is a workaround until we are able to settle on and complete a plan
to harmonize guard macros with LLVM. We've mostly worked out this on
FreeBSD systems by removing select headers from the installed set of
devel/llvm*, but that isn't a good solution for cross build.

For head/, this will remain eternally default-on to maintain the status quo.
For stable/ branches, it should be flipped to default-off to maintain the
status quo.
There's value in being able to flip it one way or the other easily on head
or stable branches, whether you want to gain some performance back on head/
(for machines there's little chance you'll actually hit an assertion) or
potentially diagnose a problem with the version of llvm on an older branch.
Currently, stable branches get the CFLAGS+= -ndebug line uncommented; going
forward, they will instead have the default of LLVM_ASSERTIONS flipped.
