reordered in transit instead of dropping them altogether.
It uses sequence numbers of PPtPGRE packets.
A set of new sysctl(8) added to control this ability or disable it:
net.graph.pptpgre.reorder_max (1) defines maximum length of node's
private reorder queue used to keep data waiting for late packets.
Zero value disables reordering. Default value 1 allows the node to restore
the order for two packets swapped in transit. Greater values allow the node
to deliver packets being late after more packets in sequence
at cost of increased kernel memory usage.
net.graph.pptpgre.reorder_timeout (1) defines time value in miliseconds
used to wait for late packets. It may be useful to increase this
if reordering spot is distant.

This driver was marked as gone in 12. We're at 13 now. Remove it.
Data from nycbug's dmesg cache shows only one potential user,
suggesting it never was used much. However, even though this device
has been obsolete for 15 years at least, sys/joystick.h is included in
a number of graphics packages still, so that remains. A full exprun
is needed before that can be removed.

I held the mistaken belief this was completely unused. While the
driver is unused and likely not relevant for a long time,
sys/joystick.h lives on in maybe half a dozen ports, even though
hardware to use it hasn't been widely used in maybe 15 years.
The current deprecated list is: ae, bm, cs, de, dme, ed, ep, ex, fe,
pcn, sf, sn, tl, tx, txp, vx, wb, xe
The list as refined as part of FCP-0101. Per the FCP, devices may be
removed from the deprecation list if enough users are found or they are
converted to iflib.

This provides a chicken switch for anyone negatively impacted by
enabling NUMA in the amd64 GENERIC kernel configuration. With
NUMA disabled at boot-time, information about the NUMA topology
is not exposed to the rest of the kernel, and all of physical
memory is viewed as coming from a single domain.
This method still has some performance overhead relative to disabling
NUMA support at compile time.

Document the 'thread' command in ddb.4 and expand the 'show thread'

Currently, the per-queue limit is a function of the receive buffer
size and the MSS. In certain cases (such as connections with large
receive buffers), the per-queue segment limit can be quite large.
Because we process segments as a linked list, large queues may not
perform acceptably.
The better long-term solution is to make the queue more efficient.
But, in the short-term, we can provide a way for a system
administrator to set the maximum queue size.
We set the default queue limit to 100. This is an effort to balance
performance with a sane resource limit. Depending on their
environment, goals, etc., an administrator may choose to modify this
limit in either direction.
