Clists were originally used by the TTY layer as a text buffer interface.
The advantage of clists were that it would allocate a small set of
additional buffers that could be shared between TTYs when needed. In
the modern days we can just allocate some more KBs of memory to keep the
TTYs satisfied. The global cfreelist also requires synchronisation,
which may not be useful when trying to improve scalability.
The MPSAFE TTY layer uses its own text buffers (ttyinq and ttyoutq). We
had a small amount of drivers in the tree that still uses clists, like
the old USB stack and some keyboard drivers. With the old USB stack gone
and the keyboard drivers changed to use a circular buffer, we can safely
remove clists from the kernel.
These two drivers seem to be the last consumers of clists. clists are
quite overengineered for simple circular buffers, so I'm adding similar
buffer management routines to the kbd and kbdmux drivers. The input
buffer is now part of the softc structures, instead of having
dynamically allocated cblocks.
and used in a large number of files, but also because an increasing number
of incorrect uses of MAC calls were sneaking in due to copy-and-paste of
MAC-aware code without the associated opt_mac.h include.

structure contents are a bad idea in the kernel for binary
compatibility reasons, and this is a single pointer that is now included
in compiles by default anyway due to options MAC being in GENERIC.
+ move ipfw and dummynet hooks declarations to raw_ip.c (definitions
in ip_var.h) same as for most other global variables.
This removes some dependencies from ip_input.c;
+ remove the IPFW_LOADED macro, just test ip_fw_chk_ptr directly;
+ remove the DUMMYNET_LOADED macro, just test ip_dn_io_ptr directly;
+ move ip_dn_ruledel_ptr to ip_fw2.c which is the only file using it;

In Portuguese, the names of the days of the week are not capitalized.
Also there is always a dash before "feira" in the names of the days.
For example: "segunda-feira" and not "segunda feira" (which has a
completely different meaning).
x_fmt is not correct either. The date separator should not be a dot
but a slash. Example: 31/12/2005 if far more used in Portugal than
31.12.2005.

I saw the issue with an older nvidia driver (x11/nvidia-driver) loading
into a new kernel - a crash wasn't seen 'till sysctl_kern_malloc_stats().
I was lucky that mtp->ks_shortdesc was NULL and not something horrible.
While I'm here, KASSERT that malloc_uninit() isn't passed something that's

trying to open files rather than giving up when it encounters an
error. ENOENT errors are not reported.
As a result, files that are moved away then recreated are not at
risk of being 'lost' to tail. Files that are recreated and
temporarily have unreadable permissions will be shown when they
are fixed.
This behaviour is consistent with the GNU version of tail but
without the verbiage that goes with the GNU version.
This change also fixes error messages accompanying -f and -F.
They no longer report problems with (null)!

Not every source I've seen capitalizes 'Man', but it seems
right. Uncapitalized 'man' would usually be preceded by
an 'a'. But I haven't seen any reference cite the orignal
source yet, so I can't say for sure.

holding SOCKBUF_LOCK() isn't sufficient to guarantee that there is
no upcall in progress, since SOCKBUF_LOCK() is released/re-acquired
in the upcall. An upcall reference counter was added to the upcall
structure that is incremented at the beginning of the upcall and
decremented at the end of the upcall. As such, a reference count == 0
when holding the SOCKBUF_LOCK() guarantees there is no upcall in
progress. Add a function that is called just after soupcall_clear(),
which waits until the reference count == 0.
Also, move the mtx_destroy() down to after soupcall_clear(), so that
the mutex is not destroyed before upcalls are done.

Add a flag so that soupcall_clear() is only called once to cancel
an upcall.
Move the test for xprt_registered in the upcall down to after the
mtx_lock() of the pool mutex, to catch the case where it is
unregistered while the upcall is waiting for the mutex.
Also, move the mtx_destroy() of the pool mutex to after SVC_RELEASE(),
so that it isn't destroyed before the upcalls are disabled.

it has a MAXIM RF (0x8) there's some success reports with using GCT RF

MAXIM and GCT RFs are integrated.
Before this commit, if I rememeber correctly, MAXIM RF is never tested

modules are loaded by avoiding mbuf label lookups when policies aren't
loaded, pushing further socket locking into MAC policy modules, and
avoiding locking MAC ifnet locks when no policies are loaded:
- Check mac_policies_count before looking for mbuf MAC label m_tags in MAC
Framework entry points. We will still pay label lookup costs if MAC
policies are present but don't require labels (typically a single mbuf
header field read, but perhaps further indirection if IPSEC or other
m_tag consumers are in use).
- Further push socket locking for socket-related access control checks and
events into MAC policies from the MAC Framework, so that sockets are
only locked if a policy specifically requires a lock to protect a label.
This resolves lock order issues during sonewconn() and also in local
domain socket cross-connect where multiple socket locks could not be
held at once for the purposes of propagatig MAC labels across multiple
sockets. Eliminate mac_policy_count check in some entry points where it
no longer avoids locking.
- Add mac_policy_count checking in some entry points relating to network
interfaces that otherwise lock a global MAC ifnet lock used to protect
ifnet labels.
