As mentioned in this special status report[1] from EuroBSDCon 2013,
WITH_SSP_PORTS was relevant in the FreeBSD 9 and FreeBSD 10 days.
Nowadays, -fstack-protector is set by default. Relevant knobs and variables
are documented in ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk.
WITH_GHOSTSCRIPT_VER was part of USE_GHOSTSCRIPT, which is deprecated.

Some rc scripts in ports (e.g. uwsgi, apache, openvpn) allow for
'application profiles' that usually require the rc script to be invoked
again for each active profile. Because there's no consistent way to
determine the path because it differs between manual/service(8) invocations
and /etc/rc invocations, this leads to patterns like these:
- www/uwsgi hardcodes the script path
- security/openvpn guesses either $_file or $0 based on $0 = /etc/rc
Instead of forcing rc scripts to guess, provide an rc_service variable to
the scripts that gets set appropriately both for direct execution or when a
script is being executed via run_rc_script (e.g. /etc/rc).
This is our analog of an OpenRC variable with the same name, different case
(RC_SERVICE).

- Change short weekday names to use only one Chinese character.
(note: this is a somewhat misunfortunate compromise due to the fact
that some applications are using short buffer for weekday names,
and in ~1905 when 星期 system was created to replace the traditional
七曜 system, which can use 日月火水木金土 to represent Sunday through
Saturday with just one character without any confusion).
- for zh_CN locales: use Arabic numerals for month names, matching the
practice of all other CJK locales
- Regenerate zh_CN.{GB2312,GBK} locales from zh_CN.UTF-8.

Currently, the installer uses pre-created 800KB FAT12 filesystems that
it dd's onto the ESP partition.
This changeset improves that by having the installer generate a FAT32
filesystem directly onto the ESP using newfs_msdos and then copying
loader.efi into /EFI/freebsd.
For live installs it then runs efibootmgr to add a FreeBSD boot entry
in the BIOS.

This is a workaround for "relocation truncated to fit" errors with BFD
ld 2.17.50 on arm and armv6, when linking executables against it.
The required range extensions are not yet supported by this very old
version of BFD ld. When arm and armv6 userland can be successfully
linked by lld, this workaround can be removed.
o Dynamically load all the .so files found in /libexec/nvmecontrol and
/usr/local/libexec/nvmecontrol.
o Link nvmecontrol -rdynamic so that its symbols are visible to the
libraries we load.
o Create concatinated linker sets that we dynamically expand.
o Add the linked-in top and logpage linker sets to the mirrors for them
and add those sets to the mirrors when we load a new .so.
o Add some macros to help hide the names of the linker sets.
o Update the man page.

pfsync code is called for every new state, state update and state
deletion in pf. While pf itself can operate on multiple states at the
same time (on different cores, assuming the states hash to a different
hashrow), pfsync only had a single lock.
This greatly reduced throughput on multicore systems.
Address this by splitting the pfsync queues into buckets, based on the
state id. This ensures that updates for a given connection always end up
in the same bucket, which allows pfsync to still collapse multiple
updates into one, while allowing multiple cores to proceed at the same
time.
The number of buckets is tunable, but defaults to 2 x number of cpus.
Benchmarking has shown improvement, depending on hardware and setup, from ~30%
to ~100%.
