5f30e9f144 Merge r247814 from x86 modulo whitespace bug:
Turn on the CTL disable tunable by default.

This will allow GENERIC configurations to boot on small memory boxes, but
not require end users who want to use CTL to recompile their kernel.  They
can simply set kern.cam.ctl.disable=0 in loader.conf.

d11db422c6 Re-enable CTL in GENERIC on i386 and amd64, but turn on the CTL disable
tunable by default.

This will allow GENERIC configurations to boot on small memory boxes, but
not require end users who want to use CTL to recompile their kernel.  They
can simply set kern.cam.ctl.disable=0 in loader.conf.

The eventual solution to the memory usage problem is to change the way
CTL allocates memory to be more configurable, but this should fix things
for small memory situations in the mean time.

UPDATING:		Explain the change in the CTL configuration, and
			how users can enable CTL if they would like to use
			it.

sys/conf/options:	Add a new option, CTL_DISABLE, that prevents CTL
			from initializing.

ctl.c:			If CTL_DISABLE is turned on, don't initialize.

i386/conf/GENERIC,
amd64/conf/GENERIC:	Re-enable device ctl, and add the CTL_DISABLE
			option.

3a6566041c Introduce six new options from NetBSD:
* -M <metalog>   Log metadata in mtree format.
 * -D <destdir>   Log paths relative to <destdir>.
 * -h <hash>      Log digest of type <hash>.
 * -T <tags>      Specify which mtree tags to log.
 * -l <linkflag>  Create hard or symbolic links (allows logging).
 * -U             Install without root privileges (owner, group, mode,
                  and flags can be logged via -M

NOTE: In the interest of compatibility with NetBSD and because it is the
obvious letter, the nearly useless -M option (disable mmap) has been
repurposed.

Instead, add protocol specific mbuf flags M_IP_NEXTHOP and

5cc3ac5902 Switch the entire IPv4 stack to keep the IP packet header
in network byte order. Any host byte order processing is
done in local variables and host byte order values are
never[1] written to a packet.

  After this change a packet processed by the stack isn't
modified at all[2] except for TTL.

  After this change a network stack hacker doesn't need to
scratch his head trying to figure out what is the byte order
at the given place in the stack.

[1] One exception still remains. The raw sockets convert host
byte order before pass a packet to an application. Probably
this would remain for ages for compatibility.

[2] The ip_input() still subtructs header len from ip->ip_len,
but this is planned to be fixed soon.

36548e3e1a Split sdhci driver in two parts: sdhci and sdhci_pci.
sdchi encapsulates a generic SD Host Controller logic that relies on
actual hardware driver for register access.

sdhci_pci implements driver for PCI SDHC controllers using new SDHCI
interface

No kernel config modifications are required, but if you load sdhc
as a module you must switch to sdhci_pci instead.

af2d834e29 Import a FreeBSD port of the FUSE Linux module.
This has been developed during 2 summer of code mandates and being revived
by gnn recently.
The functionality in this commit mirrors entirely content of fusefs-kmod
port, which doesn't need to be installed anymore for -CURRENT setups.

In order to get some sparse technical notes, please refer to:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-fs/2012-March/013876.html

or to the project branch:
svn://svn.freebsd.org/base/projects/fuse/

which also contains granular history of changes happened during port
refinements. This commit does not came from the branch reintegration
itself because it seems svn is not behaving properly for this functionaly
at the moment.

f3a0231bff A step in resolving mess with byte ordering for AF_INET. After this change:
- All packets in NETISR_IP queue are in net byte order.
  - ip_input() is entered in net byte order and converts packet
    to host byte order right _after_ processing pfil(9) hooks.
  - ip_output() is entered in host byte order and converts packet
    to net byte order right _before_ processing pfil(9) hooks.
  - ip_fragment() accepts and emits packet in net byte order.
  - ip_forward(), ip_mloopback() use host byte order (untouched actually).
  - ip_fastforward() no longer modifies packet at all (except ip_ttl).
  - Swapping of byte order there and back removed from the following modules:
    pf(4), ipfw(4), enc(4), if_bridge(4).
  - Swapping of byte order added to ipfilter(4), based on __FreeBSD_version
  - __FreeBSD_version bumped.
  - pfil(9) manual page updated.

5190d38ee3 Merge the projects/pf/head branch, that was worked on for last six months,
into head. The most significant achievements in the new code:

 o Fine grained locking, thus much better performance.
 o Fixes to many problems in pf, that were specific to FreeBSD port.

New code doesn't have that many ifdefs and much less OpenBSDisms, thus
is more attractive to our developers.

projects/pf/head branch. And for reference, here is exact list of

all diskN aliases for providers (which more or less corresponds to how the
x86 version behaves) but instead probe only those listed in the boot-device
OFW environment variable. This has the following advantages:
- avoids otherwise unavoidable OFW warnings about failures to open disks
  for which aliases exist but no actual hardware is connected
- avoids issues due to different diskN naming schemes
- aligns us with Solaris
