Now that the handbook has been moved to ports, I think it's very nice to
have a network quickstart guide in-band, in base, in the system manual.
If the user uses any of the following terms "man -k
{network,networking,wifi,quickstart}" this page will come up, which is I
think a very common use case for new users.
Currently, this document explains connecting to a basic Ethernet
network, a basic wifi network, scanning for wifi networks, and airplane
mode, as well as linking to other sections, including the handbook

Following the convention used in the rest of this file, ${LIBPFCTLDIR}
should refer to the directory, and ${LIBPFCTL} to the library itself.
Instead, both values were assigned to ${LIBPFCTL}, and ${LIBPFCTLDIR} was
not set at all.
This appears to be a simple typo and not a deliberate choice, so fix it
by assigning the directory name to ${LIBPFCTLDIR} instead.

Hot-unplugging a sound device, such as a USB sound card, whilst being
consumed by an application, results in an infinite loop until either the
application closes the device's file descriptor, or the channel
automatically times out after hw.snd.timeout seconds. In the case of a
detach however, the timeout approach is still not ideal, since we want
all resources to be released immediatelly, without waiting for N seconds
until we can use the bus again.
The timeout mechanism works by calling chn_sleep() in chn_read() and
chn_write() (see pcm/channel.c) in order to send the thread to sleep,
using cv_timedwait_sig(). Since chn_sleep() sets the CHN_F_SLEEPING flag
while waiting for cv_timedwait_sig() to return, we can test this flag in
pcm_unregister() (called during detach) and wakeup the sleeping
thread(s) to immediately kill the channel(s) being consumed.

Currently the snd_clone framework creates device nodes on-demand for
every channel, through the dsp_clone() callback, and is responsible for
routing audio to the appropriate channel(s). This patch gets rid of the
whole snd_clone framework (including any related sysctls) and instead
uses DEVFS_CDEVPRIV(9) to handle device opening, channel allocation and
audio routing. This results in a significant reduction in code size as
well as complexity.
Behavior that is preserved:
- hw.snd.basename_clone.
- Exclusive access of an audio device (i.e VCHANs disabled).
- Multiple processes can read from/write to the device.
- A device can only be opened as many times as the maximum allowed
channel number (see SND_MAXHWCHAN in pcm/sound.h).
- OSSv4 compatibility aliases are preserved.
Behavior changes:
Only one /dev/dspX device node is created (on attach) for each audio
device, as opposed to the current /dev/dspX.Y devices created by
snd_clone. According to the sound(4) man page, devices are not meant to
be opened through /dev/dspX.Y anyway, so it is best if we do not create
device nodes for them in the first place. As a result of this, modify
dsp_oss_audioinfo() to print /dev/dspX in the "ai->devnode", instead of
/dev/dspX.Y.

As mentioned in zpoolprops(7), on some SSDs, it may not be desirable to
use ZFS autotrim because a large number of trim requests can degrade
disk performance; instead, the pool should be manually trimmed at
regular intervals.
Add a new daily periodic script for this purpose, 801.trim-zfs. If
enabled (daily_trim_zfs_enable=YES; the default is NO), it will run a
'zpool trim' operation on all online pools, or on the pools listed in
'daily_trim_zfs_pools'.
The trim is not started if the pool is degraded (which matches the
behaviour of the existing 800.scrub-zfs script) or if a trim is already
running on that pool. Having autotrim enabled does not inhibit the
periodic trim; it's sometimes desirable to run periodic trims even with
autotrim enabled, because autotrim can elide trims for very small
regions.

MacOS has case insensitive filesystems by default. So trying to link
between foo.X and FOO.X causes an error of some sort since we unlink the
old foo file destroying the newly installed foo due to the insensitive
nature of the FS. Assume that this is true on darwin/macos, though it is
only try by default there.
Perhaps install should grow smarts to know when this is the case, though
that looked much trickier. There didn't seem to be a flag to check. This
would be better, imho, since we could still write the METALOG data

Debugging boot issues can be helped by
logging each rc.d script as it is run
and being able to selectively enable/disable set -x
debug.sh provides an elaborate framework for debugging shell scripts.
For secure systems, we want to be paranoid about what we read
during boot.
dot() simply reads (.) arg file if it exists
vdot() if mac_veriexec is active, ignore unverified files
otherwise behaves much the same as dot()
safe_dot() in safe_eval.sh allows reading an untrusted file;
limiting the input to simple variable assignments.
In load_rc_config allow caller to provide an option to indicate how to
handle its arg:
-v use vdot()
-s use sdot() which will try to use vdot() and fallback to safe_dot()
The default is to read using dot()
rc_run_scripts()
encapsulate the running of rc.d scripts
so that we can easily call it more than twice.
We vdot local.rc.subr to pick up extensions (like
run_rc_scripts_final) and overrides.
We also allow rc.subr.local or rc.conf to set rc_config_xtra
eg (rc_config_xtra=XXX for historic compatibility)
rc use set -o verify around the reading in of rc.subr
This has no effect if mac_veriexec is not active, but if it is; ensures
rc.subr has not been tampered with.
