here on in, if_ndis.ko will be pre-built as a module, and can be built
into a static kernel (though it's not part of GENERIC). Drivers are
created using the new ndisgen(8) script, which uses ndiscvt(8) under
the covers, along with a few other tools. The result is a driver module
that can be kldloaded into the kernel.
A driver with foo.inf and foo.sys files will be converted into
foo_sys.ko (and foo_sys.o, for those who want/need to make static
kernels). This module contains all of the necessary info from the
.INF file and the driver binary image, converted into an ELF module.
You can kldload this module (or add it to /boot/loader.conf) to have
it loaded automatically. Any required firmware files can be bundled
into the module as well (or converted/loaded separately).
Also, add a workaround for a problem in NdisMSleep(). During system
bootstrap (cold == 1), msleep() always returns 0 without actually
sleeping. The Intel 2200BG driver uses NdisMSleep() to wait for
the NIC's firmware to come to life, and fails to load if NdisMSleep()
doesn't actually delay. As a workaround, if msleep() (and hence
ndis_thsuspend()) returns 0, use a hard DELAY() to sleep instead).
This is not really the right thing to do, but we can't really do much
else. At the very least, this makes the Intel driver happy.
There are probably other drivers that fail in this way during bootstrap.
Unfortunately, the only workaround for those is to avoid pre-loading
them and kldload them once the system is running instead.
attempt to clear its pending jobs list, as this could trigger another
signal, and cause an infinite recursion. What yppush_exit() tests
in order to determine whether to flush pending jobs is the
yppush_joblist chained list, so this is what needs to be cleared
in that case (not the yppush_jobs counter).

allows us to specify the machine_arch as well as machine. If
specified then a second link will be made, similar to machine, from
$MACHINE_ARCH to $S/$MACHINE_ARCH/include.
This is for ports where MACHINE != MACHINE_ARCH (pc98 today, others in
the future?).

different since mtree already links against libmd.

format, with humanize_number(3).
- Move the common parts of the code that prints the sizes for a single
swap device and the total to a single function to avoid repeating
the humanize_number() stuff all over the place.
- Change the type of CONVERT() from intmax_t to int64_t, since this
makes calling humanize_number() easier but cast the values to
intmax_t before printing them, to make use of the %jd format that
printf() supports.
- Document the new -h flag in the manpage and bump its date.

Currently implemented are most things related to states and interfaces, todo
are address tables and altq. I've tried to keep this roughly in sync with a
project implementing this for net-snmpd.
