The asynchronous I/O changes made previously result in different
behavior out of the box. Previously all AIO requests failed with
ENOSYS / SIGSYS unless aio.ko was explicitly loaded. Now, some AIO
requests complete and others ("unsafe" requests) fail with EOPNOTSUPP.
Reword the introductory paragraph in aio(4) to add a general
description of AIO before describing the vfs.aio.enable_unsafe sysctl.
Remove the ENOSYS error description from aio_fsync(2), aio_read(2),
and aio_write(2) and replace it with a description of EOPNOTSUPP.
Remove the ENOSYS error description from aio_mlock(2).
Log a message to the system log the first time a process requests an
"unsafe" AIO request that fails with EOPNOTSUPP. This is modeled on
the log message used for processes using the legacy pty devices.

This file and mbuf(9) needs updates for other offloading
capabilities(i.e. CSUM_SCTP and CSUM_TSO).
not scheduled -> scheduled -> running -> not scheduled. The API and the
manual page assume that, some comments in the code assume that, and looks
like some contributors to the code also did. The problem is that this
paradigm isn't true. A callout can be scheduled and running at the same
time, which makes API description ambigouous. In such case callout_stop()
family of functions/macros should return 1 and 0 at the same time, since it
successfully unscheduled future callout but the current one is running.
Before this change we returned 1 in such a case, with an exception that
if running callout was migrating we returned 0, unless CS_MIGRBLOCK was
specified.
With this change, we now return 0 in case if future callout was unscheduled,
but another one is still in action, indicating to API users that resources
are not yet safe to be freed.
However, the sleepqueue code relies on getting 1 return code in that case,
and there already was CS_MIGRBLOCK flag, that covered one of the edge cases.
In the new return path we will also use this flag, to keep sleepqueue safe.
Since the flag CS_MIGRBLOCK doesn't block migration and now isn't limited to
migration edge case, rename it to CS_EXECUTING.
This change fixes panics on a high loaded TCP server.

Mention URTWN_WITHOUT_UCODE option (r295871), hardware encryption support

cleanup CAVEATS section (some 11n support was added in r297175 + add a
note about current rate control issues).
This support appears to have been documented in nsswitch.conf(5) for some
time. The implementation adds two NSS netgroup providers to libc. The
default, compat, provides the behaviour documented in netgroup(5), so this
change does not make any user-visible behaviour changes. A files provider
is also implemented.
innetgr(3) is implemented as an optional NSS method so that providers such
as NIS which are able to implement efficient reverse lookup can do so.
A fallback implementation is used otherwise. getnetgrent_r(3) is added for
convenience and to provide compatibility with glibc and Solaris.
With a small patch to net/nss_ldap, it's possible to specify an ldap
netgroup provider, allowing one to query nisNetgroupTriple entries.

This may help to see if there was memory corruption or to further
