The ixgbe(4) hardware is capable of RSS hashing RX packets and doing RSS
queue selection for up to 8 queues.
However, even if multi-queue is enabled for ixgbe(4), the RX path doesn't use
the RSS flowid from the received descriptor. It just uses the MSIX queue id.
This patch does a handful of things if RSS is enabled:
* Instead of using a random key at boot, fetch the RSS key from the RSS code
and program that in to the RSS redirection table.
That whole chunk of code should be double checked for endian correctness.
* Use the RSS queue mapping to CPU ID to figure out where to thread pin
the RX swi thread and the taskqueue threads for each queue.
* The software queue is now really an "RSS bucket".
* When programming the RSS indirection table, use the RSS code to
figure out which RSS bucket each slot in the indirection table maps
to.
* When transmitting, use the flowid RSS mapping if the mbuf has
an RSS aware hash. The existing method wasn't guaranteed to align
correctly with the destination RSS bucket (and thus CPU ID.)
This code warns if the number of RSS buckets isn't the same as the
automatically configured number of hardware queues. The administrator
will have to tweak one of them for better performance.
There's currently no way to re-balance the RSS indirection table after
startup. I'll worry about that later.
Additionally, it may be worthwhile to always use the full 32 bit flowid if
multi-queue is enabled. It'll make things like lagg(4) behave better with
respect to traffic distribution.

reset device task request from the driver. If the drive fails to respond
with a signature FIS, the driver would previously get into an endless retry
loop, stalling all I/O to the drive and keeping user processes stranded.
Instead, fail the i/o and invalidate the device if the task management
command times out. This is controllable with the sysctl and tunable

[PPC64] Fix PR20071 (fctiduz generated for targets lacking that
instruction)
PR20071 identifies a problem in PowerPC's fast-isel implementation
for floating-point conversion to integer. The fctiduz instruction
was added in Power ISA 2.06 (i.e., Power7 and later). However, this
instruction is being generated regardless of which 64-bit PowerPC
target is selected.
The intent is for fast-isel to punt to DAG selection when this
instruction is not available. This patch implements that change.
For testing purposes, the existing fast-isel-conversion.ll test adds
a RUN line for -mcpu=970 and tests for the expected code generation.
Additionally, the existing test fast-isel-conversion-p5.ll was found
to be incorrectly expecting the unavailable instruction to be
generated. I've removed these test variants since we have adequate
coverage in fast-isel-conversion.ll.
This is needed to compile clang with debug+asserts on older powerpc64
and ppc970 targets.

implement options TERMINAL_{KERN,NORM}_ATTR. These are aliased to
SC_{KERNEL_CONS,NORM}_ATTR and like these latter, allow to change the
default colors of normal and kernel text respectively.
Note on the naming: Although affecting the output of vt(4), technically
kern/subr_terminal.c is primarily concerned with changing default colors
so it would be inconsistent to term these options VT_{KERN,NORM}_ATTR.
Actually, if the architecture and abstraction of terminal+teken+vt would
be perfect, dev/vt/* wouldn't be touched by this commit at all.

there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.
