Conrad Meyer 7c69db50df Improve flexibility of ioat_test / ioatcontrol(8)
The test logic now preallocates memory before running the test.

The buffer size is now configurable.  Post-copy verification is
configurable.  The number of copies to chain into one transaction (one
interrupt) is configurable.

A 'duration' mode is added, which repeats the test until the duration
has elapsed, reporting the B/s and transactions completed.

ioatcontrol.8 has been updated to document the new arguments.

Initial limits (on this particular Broadwell-DE) (and when the
interrupts are working) seem to be: 256 interrupts/sec or ~6 GB/s,
whichever limit is more restrictive.

Unfortunately, it seems the interrupt-reset handling on Broadwell isn't
working as intended.  That will be fixed in a later commit.

This directory tree contains tools used for the maintenance and
testing of FreeBSD.  There is no toplevel Makefile structure since
these tools are not meant to be built as part of the standard system,
though there may be individual Makefiles in some of the subdirs.

Please read the README files in the subdirs for further information.
