If you were to pass an invalid option after `-B num' or `-K num' you
would see that the usage statement would show the value you passed
instead of the actual default.
Moving the default values to separate variables that are unaffected
by the options-parsing allows the usage statement to correctly show
the hard-coded default values if no flags are used.

On non-trivial SMP systems the contention on the pmc_owner mutex leads
to a substantial number of samples captured being from the pmc process
itself. This change a) makes buffers larger to avoid contention on the
global list b) makes the working sample buffer per cpu.

This hardware isn't totally ancient, about equal to a mxge(4) or mlx4en(4),
but the company was sold to Exar which then promptly exited the Ethernet
business so the card was commercially available for under 2 years. On deep
search, the only usage of these cards I found was by the importing of the
driver. There are code quality issues identified by Brooks and Hiren and
no visible use nor maintainership that warrant removal from FreeBSD 12.0.

the /boot/kernel/linker.hints file, which breaks loading some of the modules
with dependencies, eg cfiscsi.ko.
This is a minimal fix for ARM images, in order to safely MFC it before
11.2-RELEASE. Afterwards, however, I believe we should actually just change
the default (as in, etc/defaults/rc.conf). The reason is that it's required
for every image that's being cross-built, as kldxref(1) cannot handle files
for non-native architectures. For the one that is not - amd64 - having it
on by default doesn't change anything - the script is noop if the linker.hints
already exists.
The long-term solution would be to rewrite kldxref(1) to handle other
architectures, and generate linker.hints at build time.

Current UMA internals are not suited for efficient operation in
multi-socket environments. In particular there is very common use of
MAXCPU arrays and other fields which are not always properly aligned and
are not local for target threads (apart from the first node of course).
Turns out the existing UMA_ALIGN macro can be used to mostly work around
the problem until the code get fixed. The current setting of 64 bytes
runs into trouble when adjacent cache line prefetcher gets to work.

- Handle deferred callbacks as pcpu lists and poll the lists periodically.
Currently the interval is 1/hz.
- Drop the thread lock when adaptive spinning. Holding the lock starves
other threads and can even lead to lockups.
- Keep a generation count pcpu so that we don't keep spining if a thread
has left and re-entered an epoch section.
- Actually removed the callback from the callback list so that we don't
double free. Sigh ...

Make if_printf() use vlog() instead of vprintf(). This means it can no
longer return the number of characters printed, as it used to, but every
single call to if_printf() in the entire kernel ignores the return value
anyway; just return 0 so we don't have to change the prototype.
Consistently use if_printf() throughout sys/net/if.c, instead of a
mixture of if_printf() and log().
In ifa_maintain_loopback_route(), don't needlessly log an error if we
either failed to add a route because it already existed or failed to
remove one because it did not. We still return an error code, though.

As of r333461 we require ifunc support to link a working amd64 kernel.
The default in-tree bootstrap linker is lld and it has the required
support, as does any modern out-of-tree binutils linker. The in-tree
GNU ld is from binutils 2.17.50 and it does not have ifunc support,
so produce an error rather than a broken kernel.
