This is currently an opt-in build flag. Once ASLR support is ready and stable
it should changed to opt-out and be enabled by default along with ASLR.
Each application Makefile uses opt-out to ensure that ASLR will be enabled by
default in new directories when the system is compiled with PIE/ASLR. [2]
Mark known build failures as NO_PIE for now.
The only known runtime failure was rtld.

This allows to mostly avoid lock usage in getnewvnode_[drop_]reserve(),
that reduces number of global vnode_free_list_mtx mutex acquisitions
from 4 to 2 per NFS request on ZFS, improving SMP scalability.

Old design with unified thread pool was good from the point of thread
utilization. But single pool-wide mutex became huge congestion point
for systems with many CPUs. To reduce the congestion create several
thread groups within a pool (one group for every 6 CPUs and 12 threads),
each group with own mutex. Each connection during its registration is
assigned to one of the groups in round-robin fashion. File affinify
code may still move requests between the groups, but otherwise groups
are self-contained.

using a direct hook called from kern_vfs_bio_buffer_alloc().
Mark ffs_rawread.c as requiring both ffs and directio options to be
compiled into the kernel. Add ffs_rawread.c to the list of ufs.ko
module' sources.
In addition to stopping breaking the layering violation, it also
allows to link kernel when FFS is configured as module and DIRECTIO is
enabled.
One consequence of the change is that ffs_rawread.o is always linked
into the module regardless of the DIRECTIO option. This is similar to
the option QUOTA and ufs_quota.c.

This allows to slightly simplify svc_run_internal() code: if we processed
all the requests in a queue, then we know that new one will not appear.

a partially populated reservation becomes fully populated, and decrease this
field when a fully populated reservation becomes partially populated.
Use this field to simplify the implementation of pmap_enter_object() on
amd64, arm, and i386.
On all architectures where we support superpages, the cost of creating a
superpage mapping is roughly the same as creating a base page mapping. For
example, both kinds of mappings entail the creation of a single PTE and PV
entry. With this in mind, use the page size field to make the
implementation of vm_map_pmap_enter(..., MAP_PREFAULT_PARTIAL) a little
smarter. Previously, if MAP_PREFAULT_PARTIAL was specified to
vm_map_pmap_enter(), that function would only map base pages. Now, it will
create up to 96 base page or superpage mappings.

- Revert r265427. It appears we are halting the DWC OTG host
controller schedule if we process events only at every SOF. When doing
split transactions we rely on that events are processed quickly and
waiting too long might cause data loss.
- We are not always able to meet the timing requirements of interrupt
endpoint split transactions. Switch from INTERRUPT to CONTROL endpoint
type for interrupt endpoint events until further, hence CONTROL
endpoint events are more relaxed, reducing the chance of data
loss. See comment in code for more in-depth explanation.
- Simplify TT scheduling.

created to a symlink. This restriction (which was
inherited from OpenBSD) is not required by the NFS RFCs.
Since this is allowed by the old NFS server, it is a
POLA violation to not allow it. This patch modifies the
new NFS server to allow this.

In r266650, we made libatf-c and libatf-c++ private libraries so that no
components outside of the source tree could unintendedly depend on them.
This change does the same for the "atf-sh library" by moving the atf-sh
interpreter from its public location in /usr/bin/ to the private location
in /usr/libexec/. Our build system will ensure that our own test programs
use the right binary, but users won't be able to depend on atf-sh by
"mistake".
Committing this now to ride the UPDATING notice added with r267172 today.
This exists already in plain.test.mk and tap.test.mk and should have been
added to atf.test.mk too when the feature was first introduced.
(It is probably time to address the related TODOs but I will do that
separately.)

The libatf-* major version numbers in FreeBSD were one version ahead of
upstream because, when atf was first imported into FreeBSD, the upstream
numbers were not respected. This is just confusing and bound to cause
problems down the road.
Fix this by taking advantage of the fact that libatf-* are now private
and that atf is not yet built by default. However, and unfortunately, a
clean build is needed for tests to continue working once "make
delete-old-libs" has been run; hence the note in UPDATING.
register pairs where two 32-bit registers make up a larger logical
size. Support those access by splitting the quad-word into two
double-words.

In the .o file, this only changes some line numbers (head amd64) because
element 0 is no longer explicitly initialized.
This should make bugs like FreeBSD-SA-14:12.ktrace less likely.
