retrieving stored data (for the --menu, --calendar, --timebox, --checklist,
and --radiolist widgets).
When we (Ron McDowell and I) developed the first version of bsdconfig, it
used temporary files to store responses from dialog(1). That hasn't been
true for some very long time, so the need to always store the return status
of dialog(1) and then call some function to clean-up is long-deprecated. The
function that used to do the clean-up was f_dialog_menutag().
We really don't need f_dialog_menutag() for its originally designed purpose,
as all dialog invocations (even when in a sub-shell) do not use temporary
files anymore.
However, we do need to keep f_dialog_menutag() around because it still fills
the need of being able to abstract the procedure for fetching stored data
provided by functions that display the aforementioned widgets.
In re-designing f_dialog_menutag(), four important changes are made:
1. Rename f_dialog_menutag() to f_dialog_menutag_fetch()
2. Introduce the new first-argument of $var_to_set to reduce number of forks
3. Create a corresponding f_dialog_menutag_store() to abstract the storage
4. Offload the sanitization to a new function, f_dialog_data_sanitize()
NOTE: That last one is important. Not all functions need to store their data
for later fetching, meanwhile every invocation of dialog should be sanitized
(as we learned early-on in the i18n-effort -- underlying libraries will spit
warnings to stderr for bad values of $LANG and since dialog outputs its
responses to stderr, we need to sanitize every response of these warnings).
These changes greatly improve readbaility and also improve performance by
reducing unnecessary forking.

Add support for optimized (non-generic) atomic libcalls.
For integer types of sizes 1, 2, 4 and 8, libcompiler-rt (and libgcc)
provide atomic functions that pass parameters by value and return
results directly.
libgcc and libcompiler-rt only provide optimized libcalls for
__atomic_fetch_*, as generic libcalls on non-integer types would make
little sense. This means that we can finally make __atomic_fetch_*
work
on architectures for which we don't provide these operations as
builtins
(e.g. ARM).
This should fix the dreaded "cannot compile this atomic library call
yet" error that would pop up once every while.
This should make it possible for me to get C11 atomics working on all of
our platforms.
Remove local, and incorrect, definition for the value of an invalid

Extract ring cleanup code into xbd_free_ring() function for

Initial support for the AMD amdfam10 chipsets has been available in the
gcc43 branch under GPLv2. AMD and some linux distributions (OpenSUSE) did
a backport of the amdfam10 support and made it available.
This is a revised subset of the support initially brought in in r236962
and later reverted. The collateral efects seem to have disappeared but
it is still recommended to set the CPUTYPE with caution.

This reverts commit r247274.
As maintainer of sh, I disapprove of this feature addition.
It is too specific and can be done without easily using find(1) or stat(1).
I will add some hints to the test(1) man page shortly.
In general, FreeBSD sh is not the place to invent new shell language
features. This is how it has been maintained and adding features randomly
does not work with that.
The new syntax (e.g. [ FILE1 -ntca FILE2 ]) looks cryptic to me.

o This driver is the "xbd" driver, not the "blkfront", "blkif", "xbf", or
"xb" driver. Use the "xbd_" naming conventions for all functions,
structures, and constants.
o The prevailing convention for structure fields in this driver is to
prefix them with an abreviation of the structure type. Update
"recently added" fields to match this style.
o Remove unused data structures.
o Remove superfluous casts.
o Make a pass over the whole driver and bring it closer to
style(9) conformance.

calculating widget sizes. Instead of forking a sub-shell to calculate the
optimum size for a widget, use a byRef style call-out to set variables in
the parent namespace. For example, instead of:
size=$( f_dialog_buttonbox_size title btitle msg )
$DIALOG --title title --backtitle btitle --msgbox msg $size
The new API replaces the above with the following:
f_dialog_buttonbox_size height width title btitle msg
$DIALOG --title title --backtitle btitle --msgbox msg $height $width
This reduces the number of forks, improves performance, and makes the code
more readable by revealing the argument-order for widget sizing. It also
makes performing minor adjustments to the calculated values easier as
you no longer have to split-out the response (which required knowledge of
ordering so was counter-intuitive).
The "automatic" login feature is described as follows:
The USER environment variable holds the name of the person telnetting in.
This is the username of the person on the client machine. The traditional
behaviour is to execute login(1) with this username first, meaning that
login(1) will prompt for the password only. If login fails, login(1) will
retry, but now prompt for the username before prompting for the password.
This feature got broken by how the environment got scrubbed. Before the
change in r69825 we removed variables that we deemed dangerous. Starting
with r69825 we only keep those variable we know to be safe.
The USER environment variable fell through the cracks. It suddenly got
scrubbed (i.e. removed from the environment) while still being checked
for. It also got explicitly removed from the environment to handle the
failed login case.
The fix is to obtain the value of the USER environment variable before
we scrub the environment and used the "cached" in subsequent checks.
This guarantees that the environment does not contain the USER variable
in the end, while still being able to implement "automatic" login.

dtrace_probe() only takes five arguments from the probe site, so we need to

arguments are later copied out of dtrace_probe()'s stack frame by
dtrace_getarg() (or the provider-specific getarg method) as needed.
