Predicates are DIF objects whose return value is compared with zero to
determine whether the corresponding probe body is to be executed. The return
value itself is the contents of a 64-bit DIF register, but it was being
truncated to an int before the comparison. This meant that a predicate such
as /0x100000000/ would evaluate to false.

All armv6 processors are plenty fast enough for HZ=1000.
No changes are made for older arm systems, because some chips are a bit
wimpy for 1000 while others do fine, so it has to be set on a per-config
basis.
The code was successfully tested with FreeBSD, Linux, Solaris and Windows
guests. This interface is predictably slower (about 2x) then virtio-net,
but it is very helpful for guests not supporting virtio-net by default.
Thanks to Jeremiah Lott and Peter Grehan for doing original heavy lifting.
On machines where SIZE_T_MAX exceeds OFF_MAX (signed 64-bit), permit seeking
character devices to negative off_t values. This enables dd(1) to interact
with kernel KVA in /dev/kmem on amd64, for example.

For compatibility reasons make driver not report any checksum offload by
default, since there is indeed none. But if administrator knows that
interface is used only for local traffic, he can enable fake checksum
offload manually on both sides to save some CPU cycles, since the data
are already protected by CRC32 of PCIe link.

pf returns PF_PASS, PF_DROP, ... in the netpfil hooks, but the hook callers
expect to get E<foo> error codes.
Map the returns values. A pass is 0 (everything is OK), anything else means
pf ate the packet, so return EACCES, which tells the stack not to emit an ICMP
error message.

This allows at least first three doorbells to work very close to normal
hardware, properly signaling events to upper layers without spurious or
lost events. Doorbells above the first three may still report spurious
events due to lack of reliable information, but they are rarely used.
It is odd idea to serialize different MSI-X vectors. Use of rmlocks
here allows them to execute in parallel, but still protects ctx.
If upper layers require any additional serialization -- they can
do it by themselves.
This follows NTB subsystem modularization in Linux, tuning it to FreeBSD
native NewBus interfaces. This change allows to support different types
of hardware with different drivers, support multiple NTB instances in a
system, ntb_transport module use for needs other then if_ntb, etc.

Since SBARxSZ register can be write-once, it can be unusable for disabling
the SBAR. For such case also set SBARxBASE to zero to not intersect with
config BAR.
This may be reworked upstream but in the interim should address the
stack usage issue reported in the PR.

setting a 32 bit value on each socket. This can be used by applications
and DTrace as a rendezvous point so that an applicaton's data can
more easily be captured at run time. Expose the user cookie via
DTrace by updating the translator in tcp.d and add a quick test
program, a TCP server, that sets the cookie on each connection

* add support to read the timer and capability
* add support to enable/disable the location timer.
On AR9380 at least, enabling the location timer is required to make
the timer tick, otherwise location packets return a timestamp of 0.
However, it then makes /all/ RX packets use the RX location timestamp
instead of the TSF timestamp.
So, unless I find another magical way to do location timestamping,
we will have to dynamically switch things on/off and ensure the
TX/RX path handles the "different" timestamps correctly.
Tested:
* AR9380, STA mode
* LOC_INFO is mostly just "did this packet come with a locationing
timestamp instead of TSF";
* Decode not-sounding, uploaded-data, data-valid, data type and
number of extension spatial streams.
* If fast_ts is set then the TX timestamp is the fast timestamp, not
normal TSF.
* If the TX descriptor has the position bit set then request locationing
and clear sounding-disable. This way we (a) get the response with
the TX timestamp from the location side of things, and (b) we get
a CSI dump of the response ACK, which we will eventually use in the
locationing path.
* the code already stored the length of the RX desc, which I never used.
So, use that and retire the new flag I introduced a while ago.
* Introduce a TX timestamp length field and capability.
It was useless before, but may improve performance now if multiple devices
are configured and guest supports this feature.

While old syntax is still supported, new syntax looks like this:
-s 3,ahci,hd:/dev/zvol/XXX,hd:/dev/zvol/YYY,cd:/storage/ZZZ.iso

This significantly reduces stack space requirements, and runtimes
require only native unwinding.

It turns out that this value is not used within the system call code
under normal conditions, except when using tracing tools like ktrace.
If we forget to set this value, it is set to random garbage. This may
cause ktrace to hang indefinitely, making it impossible to kill.
