In the 2BSD line, the 2.8BSD tapes were the first ones to include a
kernel, both source and a bootable tape. This was an AT&T V7 kernel,
with a number of bug fixes; new features in use at Berkeley; performance
enhancements that were circulating to V7 in the licensee community; and
build system changes. Based on the TUHS archives, it contains none of
the V32 changes, however.
In addition to the source code analysis, Mike Karels relates the story
of how his group lost a customizes to V6 on a PDP-11/40 due to a disk
crash. Since V7 just came out and Bill Jolitz had just brought that up
elsewhere, they replaced their customized V6 with a V7 system, and that
base would eventually become 2.8BSD. (Quarter Century of Unix)
Given both lines of evidence, add a direct line from V7 Unix to 2.8BSD.
Also confirmed that the V6 line to 1BSD and 2BSD was appropriate. 1BSD
and 2BSD included ashell(1) and ex(1). ashell(1) was derived from v6
hell. ex(1) was an enhanced v6 ed. 2.8BSD included process control and
user-land utilities from 4.1BSD

(cherry picked from commit 520a2401a6)
In order to support various types of data stored in device
tree properties or ACPI _DSD packages, create a new enum so
the caller can specify the expected type of a property they
want to read, according to the binding. The bus logic will use
that information to process the underlying data.
For example in DT all integer properties are stored in BE format.
In order to get constant results across different platforms we
need to convert its endianness to match the host.
Another example are ACPI_TYPE_INTEGER properties stored
as uint64_t. Before this patch the ACPI logic would refuse
to read them if the provided buffer was smaller than 8 bytes.
Now this can be handled by using DEVICE_PROP_UINT32 type.
Modify the existing consumers of this API to reflect the changes
and update the man pages accordingly.

acpi: Fix error code returned in acpi_bus_get_prop
ACPI implementation of device_get_property would return "-1" when
property was found, but it's type wasn't supported.
This causes device_has_property to return false in that scenario, which
arguably could be considered as incorrect.
Fix that by returning "0" in that case.

Using /etc/jail.{jailname}.conf is nice, however it makes /etc/ very
messy if you have many jails. This patch allows one to move these
config files out of the way into /etc/jail.conf.d/{jailname}.conf.
Note that the same caveat as /etc/jail.*.conf applies: the jail service
will not autodiscover all of these for starting 'all' jails. This is
considered future work, since the behavior matches.

Recent firmwares have more leeway in FEC selection and there is a need
to track the FECs requested by the driver separately from the FEC in use
on the link. The existing dev.<port>.<inst>.fec sysctl can read both but
its behavior depends on the link state and it is sometimes hard to find
out what was requested when the link is up.
Split the fec sysctl into two (requested_fec and link_fec) to get access
to both pieces of information regardless of the link state.

Merge commit '2530eb1fa01bf28fbcfcdda58bd41e055dcb2e4a'
Adjust the driver to the upgraded ena-com part twofold:
First update is related to the driver's NUMA awareness.
Allocate I/O queue memory in NUMA domain local to the CPU bound to the
given queue, improving data access time. Since this can result in
performance hit for unaware users, this is done only when RSS
option is enabled, for other cases the driver relies on kernel to
allocate memory by itself.
Information about first CPU bound is saved in adapter structure, so
the binding persists after bringing the interface down and up again.
If there are more buckets than interface queues, the driver will try to
bind different interfaces to different CPUs using round-robin algorithm
(but it will not bind queues to CPUs which do not have any RSS buckets
associated with them). This is done to better utilize hardware
resources by spreading the load.
Add (read-only) per-queue sysctls in order to provide the following
information:
- queueN.domain: NUMA domain associated with the queue
- queueN.cpu: CPU affinity of the queue
The second change is for the CSUM_OFFLOAD constant, as ENA platform
file has removed its definition. To align to that change, it has been
added to the ena_datapath.h file.

Allow a zone to opt out of cache size management. In particular,
uma_reclaim() and uma_reclaim_domain() will not reclaim any memory from
the zone, nor will uma_timeout() purge cached items if the zone is idle.
This effectively means that the zone consumer has control over when
items are reclaimed from the cache. In particular, uma_zone_reclaim()
will still reclaim cached items from an unmanaged zone.
