and takes over mountcritlocal's role as the early / late divider. This
makes it far easier to add rc scripts which need to run early, such as a
startup script for zfs, which is right around the corner.
This change should be a no-op; I have verified that the only change in
rcorder's output is the insertion of FILESYSTEMS immediately after
mountcritlocal.

of malloc-backed. A swap-backed memory disc should not be worse

starve limited kernel resources and evenually crash the system.
Reflect the change in the rc.conf(5) manpage. Also stop telling

arrangement that has no intrinsic internal knowledge of whether devices
it is given are truly multipath devices. As such, this is a simplistic
approach, but still a useful one.
The basic approach is to (at present- this will change soon) use camcontrol
to find likely identical devices and and label the trailing sector of the
first one. This label contains both a full UUID and a name. The name is
what is presented in /dev/multipath, but the UUID is used as a true
distinguishor at g_taste time, thus making sure we don't have chaos
on a shared SAN where everyone names their data multipath as "Fred".
The first of N identical devices (and N *may* be 1!) becomes the active
path until a BIO request is failed with EIO or ENXIO. When this occurs,
the active disk is ripped away and the next in a list is picked to
(retry and) continue with.
During g_taste events new disks that meet the match criteria for existing
multipath geoms get added to the tail end of the list.
Thus, this active/passive setup actually does work for devices which
go away and come back, as do (now) mpt(4) and isp(4) SAN based disks.
There is still a lot to do to improve this- like about 5 of the 12
recommendations I've received about it, but it's been functional enough
for a while that it deserves a broader test base.

- Parse the _CST packages for each cpu and track all the states individually,
on a per-cpu basis.
- Revert to generic FADT/P_BLK based Cx control if the _CST package
is not present on all cpus. In that case, the new driver will
still support per-cpu Cx state handling. The driver will determine the
highest Cx level that can be supported by all the cpus and configure the
available Cx state based on that.
- Fixed the case where multiple cpus in the system share the same
registers for Cx state handling. To do that, added a new flag
parameter to the acpi_PkgGas and acpi_bus_alloc_gas functions that
enable the caller to add the RF_SHAREABLE flag. This flag could also be
useful to other callers (acpi_throttle?) in the tree but this change is
not yet made.
- For Core Duo cpus, both cores seems to be taken out of C3 state when
any one of the cores need to transition out. This broke the short sleep
detection logic. It is disabled now if there is more than one cpu in
the system for now as it fixed it in my case. This quirk may need to
be re-enabled later differently.
- Added support to control cx_lowest on a per-cpu basis. There is still
a generic cx_lowest to enable changing cx_lowest for all cpus with a single
sysctl and for ease of use. Sample output for the new sysctl:
dev.cpu.0.cx_supported: C1/1 C2/1 C3/57
dev.cpu.0.cx_lowest: C3
dev.cpu.0.cx_usage: 0.00% 43.16% 56.83%

With the second (and last) part of my previous Summer of Code work, we get:
-ipfw's in kernel nat
-redirect_* and LSNAT support
General information about nat syntax and some examples are available
in the ipfw (8) man page. The redirect and LSNAT syntax are identical
to natd, so please refer to natd (8) man page.
To enable in kernel nat in rc.conf, two options were added:
o firewall_nat_enable: equivalent to natd_enable
o firewall_nat_interface: equivalent to natd_interface
Remember to set net.inet.ip.fw.one_pass to 0, if you want the packet
to continue being checked by the firewall ruleset after being
(de)aliased.
NOTA BENE: due to some problems with libalias architecture, in kernel
nat won't work with TSO enabled nic, thus you have to disable TSO via
ifconfig (ifconfig foo0 -tso).

Implement the checks for required_* objects as two functions, one
to be run before precmd and the other after it. They get the current
rc command as an argument so they can choose what requirement tests
to perform. As of now, only "start" needs such tests.
Implement a new requirement variable, required_modules. It can
list kernel modules that need to be loaded after start_precmd
indicated success. Each name in the list can be just "file", or
"file:module", or "file~regex". This will allow us to remove a lot
of duplicated code from rc.d scripts.
Perform the checks not only for the default start method, but for
any method. This allows for more flexibility and fixes a few rc.d
scripts (namely newsyslog, pf, sendmail) that rely on a required_*
variable while providing a non-default start method.
To be able to call the new check_required* functions naturally,
remove lots of crufty duplicated code pieces from run_rc_command
and replace each of them by a call to the helper function providing
a single corrected instance of the respective code snippet. Now
run_rc_command isn't as scary as it used to be, and it even appears
to have quite a nice logic that was obscured by the old crufty code.
In the default handler for restart, run start from a subshell to
protect global varibles, e.g., _postcmd, from modification by the
start handler. This enables using restart_postcmd. [x]

After a change of devd.conf, devd(8) handles NIC attach/detach event
by using /etc/pccard_ether with the interface name as the argument.
This model does not work properly with IPv6 configuration because the
implementation of IPv6 stateless auto-configuration in the FreeBSD
rc.d scripts depends on whether there are any explicit configurations
for interfaces or not. It works this way: if no manual configuration,
it will perform auto-configuration, but otherwise no
auto-configuration will be performed. So, this behavior can only be
determined by all of the interfaces on a system, not a single one.
For this reason, the network6_interface_setup() function called from
the pccard_ether_start() does not work with a single interface name.
And what is worse, this combination of devd.conf and
pccard_ether_start() caused a bad side-effect that when
ipv6_enable=YES, all of interfaces marked as DOWN would be UP
unconditionally (and router solicitation was sent) just after devd(8)
was invoked. This should be fixed in a more sophisticated way.
A kernel with INET6 always has ::1 on lo0, so in the case of
ipv6_enable="NO" the lo0 can have ::1 with no link-local address.
This is a violation of the IPv6 specification. As a workaround for
this situation, fe80::1 is added in rc.d/auto_linklocal when lo0 has
no link-local address. This should not be harmful for IPv4-only users.
