This is applicable only to the older processors that do not have the AMD
Topology extension.
Opteron 6100-series "Magny-Cours" processors had multiple nodes within a
package and didn't have the Topology extension. Without this change
FreeBSD would assume that those processors have a single L3 cache shared
by all cores while, in fact, each node has its own L3 cache.

(that is, in all supported 8, 15, 16 and 24-color modes). Moving the
mouse cursor while holding down a button (giving cut marking) left a
trail of garbage from misremoved mouse cursors (usually colored
rectangles and not cursor shapes). Cases with a button not held down
worked better and may even have worked.
No renderer support for removing (software) mouse cursors is needed
(and many renderers don't have any), since sc_remove_mouse_image()
marks for update the region containing the image and usually much
more. The mouse cursor can be (partially) over as many as 4 character
cells, and removing it in only the 1-4 cells occupied by it would be
best for efficiency and for avoiding flicker. However,
sc_remove_mouse_image() can only mark a single linear region and
usually marks a full row of cells and 1 more to be sure to cover the
4 cells. It always does this, so using the special rendering method
just wastes even more time and gives even more flicker. The special
methods will be removed soon.
The general method always works. vga_pxlmouse_direct() appeared to
defer to it by returning immediately if !on. However,
vga_pxlmouse_direct() actually did foot-shooting using a disguised
saveunder method. Normal order near a mouse move is:
(1) remove the mouse cursor in the renderer (optional)
(2) remove the mouse cursor again and refresh the screen over the
mouse cursor and much more from the vtb. When the mouse has
actually moved and a button is down, many attributes in this
region are changed to be up to date with the new cut marking
(3) draw the keyboard cursor again if it was clobbered by the update
(4) draw the mouse cursor image in its new position.
The bug was to remove the mouse cursor again in step (4), before the
drawing it again in (4), using a saveunder that was valid in step (1)
at best. The quick fix is to use the saveunder in step (1) and not
in step (4). Using it in step (4) also used it before it was
initialized, initially and after mode and screen switches.
in the vga renderer. Removal used stale attributes and didn't try to
merge with the current attribute for cut marking, so special rendering
of cut marking was lost in many cases. The gfb renderer is too broken
to support special rendering of cut marking at all, so this change is
supposed to be just a style fix for it. Remove all traces of the
saveunder method which was used to implement this bug.
Fix drawing of the cursor image in text mode, only in the vga
renderer. This used a stale attribute from the frame buffer instead
of from the saveunder, but did merge with the current attribute for
cut marking so it caused less obvious bugs (subtle misrendering for
the character under the cursor).
The saveunder method may be good in simpler drivers, but in syscons
the 'under' is already saved in a better way in the vtb. Just redraw
it from there, with visible complications for cut marking and
invisible complications for mouse cursors. Almost all drawing
requests are passed a flag 'flip' which currently means to flip to
reverse video for characters in the cut marking region, but should
mean that the the characters are in the cut marking regions so should
be rendered specially, preferably using something better than reverse
video. The gfb renderer always ignores this flag. The vga renderer
ignored it for removal of the text cursor -- the saveunder gave the
stale rendering at the time the cursor was drawn. Mouse cursors need
even more complicated methods. They are handled by drawing them last
and removing them first. Removing them usually redraws many other
characters with the correct cut marking (but transiently loses the
keyboard cursor, which is redrawn soon). This tended to hide the
saveunder bug for forward motions of the keyboard cursor. But slow
backward motions of the keyboard cursor always lost the cut marking,
and fast backwards motions lost in for about 4 in every 5 characters,
depending on races with the scrn_update() timeout handler. This is
because the forward motions are usually into the region redrawn for
the mouse cursor, while backwards motions rarely are.
Text cursor drawing in the vga renderer used also used a
possibly-stale copy of the character and its attribute. The vga
render has the "optimization" of sometimes reading characters from the
screen instead of from the vtb (this was not so good even in 1990 when
main memory was only a few times faster than video RAM). Due to care
in update orders, the character is never stale, but its attribute
might be (just the cut marking part, again due to care in order).
gfb doesn't have the scp->scr pointer used for the "optimization", and
vga only uses this pointer for text mode. So most cases have to
refresh from the vtb, and we can be sure that the ordering of vtb
updates and drawing is as required for this to work.
r279908 added logic to Makefile.inc1 to automatically set
CROSS_BINUTILS_PREFIX for architectures not supported by the in-tree
binutils: arm64 when first introduced, and later riscv64 as well.
LLVM's LLD linker is now included in the base system, and is enabled by
default for arm64 and capable of linking world and kernel. Thus, avoid
automatically setting CROSS_BINUTILS_PREFIX and requiring the binutils
port if WITH_LLD_IS_LD is true.

Specifically, set '-mabi=XX' in AFLAGS, CFLAGS, and LDFLAGS. This permits
building MIPS worlds and binaries with a toolchain whose default output
does not match the desired TARGET_ARCH.
_LDFLAGS (which is used with LD instead of with CC) required an update as
LD does not accept the -mabi flags (so they must be stripped from LDFLAGS
when generating _LDFLAGS). For bare uses of LD (rather than linking via
CC), the desired ABI must be set by setting an explicit linker emulation
as done in r316514 for kernels and kernel modules.

On most architectures crt objects are compiled in a multiple-step process
so that sed can be run on the generated assembly. As the final step,
the C compiler generates an object file from the modified assembly output.
Currently this last step uses $CC with only $ACFLAGS. However, for other
uses in the tree, $ACFLAGS is meant to include assembly-specific compiler
flags that are in addition to $CFLAGS (see default .S.o rules
bsd.suffixes.mk). In particular, external toolchains may require
additional flags to select a non-default target which will be present
in CFLAGS but not ACFLAGS. To support this while still mitigating the
issue with CFLAGS described in r234502, include a modified CFLAGS that
excludes "-g" when assembling the modified assembly files.
Note that normally an assembler ($AS) is used to assemble .s flags to
object files (see bsd.suffixes.mk). However, llvm-based toolchains do
not currently have a stand-alone assembler.
