For historical reasons, defining MALLOC_PRODUCTION in /etc/make.conf has
been used to turn off potentially expensive debug checks and statistics
gathering in the implementation of malloc(3).
It seems more consistent to turn this into a regular src.conf(5) option,
e.g. WITH_MALLOC_PRODUCTION / WITHOUT_MALLOC_PRODUCTION. This can then
be toggled similar to any other source build option, and turned on or
off by default for e.g. stable branches.

It's rare for there to be two updating entries on the same day (once a
decade or so), but we have that here. Add the date to the second one
since devd and zfs are unrelated.
make copies instead.
There's too many times that we can't run the new binaries with old
libraries. Making the links when things are known to be 'safe' is a
nice optimization, but a copy of all the binaries is only 30MB, so
saving the copies at the cost of increased support when new symbols
are added and used as part of the bootstrap seems to be unwise.
There may be additional optimizations possible here, especially for
!FreeBSD hosts. However, that's beyond the scope of the problem I'm
trying to fix with make failing mid-way through an installworld across
change r363679. This optimization there caused us to run a new binary
with an old library once a new make was installed due to the symbolic
link. One could just copy make, but then other binaries fail as well,
so rather than play whack-a-mole, I opted to take us back to the old
way. Before r340157 or so we did copies (thogh of a lot fewer
artifacts), and we didn't have issues like this.

Some folks seem to be hitting issues with build orchestration; presumably
some of our .WAIT-removal optimizations are going awry, and they're ending
up with applications linked against new libc being installed before the new
libc.
Letting installworld complete the first time should ensure that the new libc
is installed by the end of it, then the second installworld will ensure
consistency as everything should succeed.
Some of the consumers in-base may make it enticing enough to ensure that
COMPAT_FREEBSD12, which is notably a fairly light option at the moment, is
included in custom kernel configs.

autofs was introduced with FreeBSD 10.1 and is the supported method for
automounting filesystems. As of r296194 the amd man page claimed that it
is deprecated. Remove it from base now; the sysutils/am-utils port is
still available if necessary.

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.

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.

Each entry in ObsoleteFiles.inc adds to the time `make delete-old` and
friends take to run. Perl was removed from the FreeBSD base system a
very long time ago (FreeBSD 5); source updates have not been supported
from that version for years.
Perl was a single component responsible for thousands of entries so
provides significant benefit with little effort/investigation required.
We could still use a more comprehensive cleanup to remove old entries.
Also add an UPDATING note (with wordsmithing by imp) indicating that
`make delete-old` is required along each step of a source upgrade from
an old, unsupported release.

Revert parts of r353274 replacing vnet_state with a shutdown flag.
Not having the state flag for the current SI_SUB_* makes it harder to debug
kernel or module panics related to VNET bringup or teardown.
Not having the state also does not allow us to check for other dependency
levels between components, e.g. for moving interfaces.
Expand the VNET structure with the new boolean flag indicating that we are
doing a shutdown of a given vnet and update the vnet magic cookie for the
change.
Update libkvm to compile with a bool in the kernel struct.
Bump __FreeBSD_version for (external) module builds to more easily detect
the change.

Support for NO_CTF, NO_DEBUG_FILES, NO_INSTALLLIB, NO_MAN, NO_PROFILE,
and NO_WARNS as deprecated in 2014 with a warning added for each one
found. Turn these into error in preperation for removal of compatability
support before FreeBSD 13.
This was previously committed in r354909 and reverted in r355011 due to
unforseen impacts on ports. I've since corrected all amd64 and i386
ports reported in prior runs as well as instance of these variables I
found via grep.
