These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,
such as:
1) no output from sysctl(8)
2) erroneously returning ENOMEM with tools like truss(1)
or uname(1)

there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

the queue where to enqueue pages that are going to be unwired.
- Add stronger checks to the enqueue/dequeue for the pagequeues when
adding and removing pages to them.
Of course, for unmanaged pages the queue parameter of vm_page_unwire() will
be ignored, just as the active parameter today.
This makes adding new pagequeues quicker.
This change effectively modifies the KPI. __FreeBSD_version will be,
however, bumped just when the full cache of free pages will be
evicted.

Netmap gets its own hardware-assisted virtual interface and won't take
over or disrupt the "normal" interface in any way. You can use both
simultaneously.
For kernels with DEV_NETMAP, cxgbe(4) carves out an ncxl<N> interface
(note the 'n' prefix) in the hardware to accompany each cxl<N>
interface. These two ifnet's per port share the same wire but really
are separate interfaces in the hardware and software. Each gets its own
L2 MAC addresses (unicast and multicast), MTU, checksum caps, etc. You
should run netmap on the 'n' interfaces only, that's what they are for.
With this, pkt-gen is able to transmit > 45Mpps out of a single 40G port
of a T580 card. 2 port tx is at ~56Mpps total (28M + 28M) as of now.
Single port receive is at 33Mpps but this is very much a work in
progress. I expect it to be closer to 40Mpps once done. In any case
the current effort can already saturate multiple 10G ports of a T5 card
at the smallest legal packet size. T4 gear is totally untested.

- More flexible cluster size selection, including the ability to fall
back to a safe cluster size (PAGE_SIZE from zone_jumbop by default) in
case an allocation of a larger size fails.
- A single get_fl_payload() function that assembles the payload into an
mbuf chain for any kind of freelist. This replaces two variants: one
for freelists with buffer packing enabled and another for those without.
- Buffer packing with any sized cluster. It was limited to 4K clusters
only before this change.
- Enable buffer packing for TOE rx queues as well.
- Statistics and tunables to go with all these changes. The driver's
man page will be updated separately.
