(for example, a large mfsroot). Note that for EFI the kernel and
modules (as well as other metadata files such as splash screens or
memory disk images) are loaded into a statically-sized staging area.
When the EFI loader exits it copies this staging area down to the
location the kernel expects to run at.
- Add bounds checking to the copy routines to fail attempts to access
memory outside of the staging area. Previously loading a combined
kernel + modules larger than the staging size (32MB) would overflow
the staging area trashing whatever memory was afterwards. Under
Intel's OVMF firmware for qemu this resulted in fatal faults in the
firmware itself. Now the attempt will fail with ENOMEM.
- Allow the staging area size to be configured at compile time via
an EFI_STAGING_SIZE variable in src.conf or on the command line.
It accepts the size of the staging area in MB. The default size
remains 32MB.

packets and does not schedule interrupts for any packets currently
enqueued. Close two races where enqueued packets may not ever trigger
interrupts. The first of these, at adapter initialization time, was
especially severe since a rush of enqueued packets could actually fill
the receive buffer completely, stalling the interface forever.

any defaults or user specified actions on the command line. This would
be useful for specifying features that are always broken or that
cannot make sense on a specific architecture, like ACPI on pc98 or
EISA on !i386 (!x86 usage of EISA is broken and there's no supported
hardware that could have it in any event). Any items in
BROKEN_OPTIONS are forced to "no" regardless of other settings.
Clients are expected change BROKEN_OPTIONS with +=. It will not
be unset, so other parts of the build system can have visibility
into the options that are broken on this platform, though this
should be very rare.

default case to all switch statements while at it. Also move the
hashing of the IPv6 flow field to layer 4 because the IPv6 flow field
is constant on a per L4 connection basis and not on a per L3 network.

A late change to the SR-IOV infrastructure broke passthrough of
VFs. device_set_devclass() was being used to try to force the
ppt driver to attach to the device, but this didn't work because
the DF_FIXEDCLASS flag wasn't being set on the device, so the
ppt driver probe routine would not match when it returned
BUS_NOWILDCARD. Fix this by adding a new device function that
both sets the devclass and sets the DF_FIXEDCLASS flag, and use
that to force the ppt driver to attach to VFs.

This is not complete yet: the gem(4) interface on my laptop seems to
disappear from the PCI bus as a result of quiescing Open Firmware in the
boot loader.
These are left over from long ago when there was no way to load modules
on early armv6 platforms, and when there was a build problem with ahc
that has long since been fixed, and they just keep getting copy-pasted
into new configs.
The MEM_UOPS_RETIRED actually work the same way as the Sandy
Bridge counters, but the counters were documented in a different
way and that seemed to cause the Ivy Bridge counters to be
implemented incorrectly. Use the same counter definitions as
Sandy Bridge. While I'm here, rename the counters to match
what's documented in the datasheet.

On Sandy Bridge and later, to count branch-related events you
have to or together a mask indicating the type of branch
instruction to count (e.g. direct jump, branch, etc) and a bits
indicating whether to count taken and not-taken branches. The
current counter definitions where defining this bits individually,
so the counters never worked and always just counted 0.
Fix the counter definitions to instead contain the proper
combination of masks. Also update the man pages to reflect the
new counters.

A couple of pmc counters did not work because there were being
