On Linux the valid range of priorities for the SCHED_FIFO and SCHED_RR
scheduling policies is [1,99]. For SCHED_OTHER the single valid priority is
0. On FreeBSD it is [0,31] for all policies. Programs are supposed to
query the valid range using sched_get_priority_(min|max), but of course some
programs assume the Linux values are valid.
This commit adds a tunable compat.linux.map_sched_prio. When enabled
sched_get_priority_(min|max) return the Linux values and sched_setscheduler
and sched_(get|set)param translate between FreeBSD and Linux values.
Because there are more Linux levels than FreeBSD levels, multiple Linux
levels map to a single FreeBSD level, which means pre-emption might not
happen as it does on Linux, so the tunable allows to disable this behaviour.
It is enabled by default because I think it is unlikely that anyone runs
real-time software under Linux emulation on FreeBSD that critically relies
on correct pre-emption.
This fixes FMOD, a commercial sound library used by several games.

With powerd_flags="-N", this makes powerd(8) exclude "nice" time when
computing the CPU utilization. This makes it possible to prevent
CPU-intensive "background" processes from spinning up the CPU.
Note that only *userland* CPU usage belonging to "nice" processes is
excluded; we do not track whether time spent in the kernel is on behalf
of nice or non-nice processes, so kernel-intensive nice processes can
still result in the CPU being sped up.

Now that we no longer have GCC 4.2.1 in the tree and can assume FreeBSD
is being built with a C++11 compiler available, we can use BSDL dtc
unconditionally and retire the GPL dtc.
GPL dtc now has FreeBSD CI support via Cirrus-CI to help ensure it
continues to build/work on FreeBSD and is available in the ports tree
if needed.
The copy of (copyfree licensed) libfdt that we actually use is in
sys/contrib/libfdt so the extra copy under contrib/dtc/libfdt can be
removed along with the rest of the GPL dtc.

With the retirement of GCC 4.2.1 we can assume the host compiler supports
C++11, and can simplify the Clang and LLD defaults. Clang and lld are now
enabled by default everywhere, and are used as the bootstrap compiler and
linker for all targets except MIPS.

As described in Warner's email message[1] to the FreeBSD-arch mailing
list we have reached GCC 4.2.1's retirement date. At this time all
supported architectures either use in-tree Clang, or rely on external
toolchain (i.e., a contemporary GCC version from ports).
GCC 4.2.1 was released July 18, 2007 and was imported into FreeBSD later
that year, in r171825. GCC has served us well, but version 4.2.1 is
obsolete and not used by default on any architecture in FreeBSD. It
does not support modern C and does not support arm64 or RISC-V.
Thanks to everyone responsible for maintaining, updating, and testing
GCC in the FreeBSD base system over the years.
So long, and thanks for all the fish.

Remove the list of architectures and depend on COMPAT_FREEBSD32 which is
defined (if relevent) in opt_global.h and thus defined everywhere in
the kernel.
This is a minor change in behavior in that 32-bit compat for sysctls now
depends on COMPAT_FREEBSD32 rather than on the potential for 32-bit
compat support. The prior arrangement may have been part of an attempt
to allow 32-bit compat to be loadable, but such attempts are doomed to
failure (due to the fact that ioctls have no meaning without the
associated file descriptor) without vastly more refactoring and some
sort of COMPAT_FREEBSD32_SUPPORT option.

This is the result of splitting r358153 in two, in order to avoid a build
system bug and being able to merge the change to previous releases..
Document better this file, updating the URL to the IANA registry and closely
match the official services.
For system ports (0 to 1023) we now try to follow the registry closely, noting
some historical differences where applicable.
As a side effect: drop references to unofficial Kerberos IV which was EOL'ed
on Oct 2006[1]. While it is conceivable some people may still use it in some
very old FreeBSD machines that can't be replaced easily, the use of it is
considered a security risk. Also drop the unofficial netatalk, which we
supported long ago in the kernel but was dropped long ago.
Leave for now smtps, even though it conflicts with IANA's submissions.
The change should have very little visibility, if any, but should be a
step closer to the current IANA database.

Previously the pattern to extract status flags from inline assembly
blocks was to use setcc in the block to write the flag to a register.
This was suboptimal in a few ways:
- It would lead to code like: sete %cl; test %cl; jne, i.e. a flag
would just be loaded into a register and then reloaded to a flag.
- The setcc would force the block to use an additional register.
- If the client code didn't care for the flag value then the setcc
would be entirely pointless but could not be eliminated by the
optimizer.
A more modern inline asm construct (since gcc 6 and clang 9) allows for
"flag output operands", where a C variable can be written directly from
a flag. The optimizer can then use this to produce direct code where
the flag does not take a trip through a register.
In practice this makes each affected operation sequence shorter by five
bytes of instructions. It's unlikely this has a measurable performance
impact.

refcount(9) was recently extended to support waiting on a refcount to
drop to zero, as this was needed for a lockless VM object
paging-in-progress counter. However, this adds overhead to all uses of
refcount(9) and doesn't really match traditional refcounting semantics:
once a counter has dropped to zero, the protected object may be freed at
any point and it is not safe to dereference the counter.
This change removes that extension and instead adds a new set of KPIs,
blockcount_*, for use by VM object PIP and busy.

In certain cases (probably not during normal operation but observed in
the lab during development) ip6_ouput() could return without error
and ifpp (&oifp) not updated.
Given oifp was never initialized we would take the later branch
as oifp was not NULL, and when calling icmp6_ifstat_inc() we would
panic dereferencing a garbage pointer.
For code stability initialize oifp to NULL before first use to always
have a deterministic value and not rely on a called function to behave
and always and for ever do the work for us as we hope for.
