FreeBSD DD utility has not had support for the O_DIRECT flag, which
is useful to bypass local caching, e.g. for unconditionally issuing
NFS IO requests during testing.

Normally, count=n means read(2) will be called n times on the input to dd. If
the read() returns short, as may happen when reading from a pipe, fewer bytes
will be copied from the input. With conv=sync the buffer is padded with zeros
to fill the rest of the block.
iflag=fullblock causes dd to continue reading until the block is full, so that
count=n means n full blocks are copied. This flag is compatible with illumos
and GNU dd and is used in the ZFS test suite.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Though technically correct, GCC complains about usingi a "%zd" format

dd(1) casts many of its numeric arguments from uintmax_t to intmax_t and
back again to detect whether or not the original arguments were negative.
This is not correct, and causes problems with boundary cases, for example
when count is SSIZE_MAX-1.

On machines where SIZE_T_MAX exceeds OFF_MAX (signed 64-bit), permit seeking
character devices to negative off_t values. This enables dd(1) to interact
with kernel KVA in /dev/kmem on amd64, for example.

This feature is useful because the statistics information can
sometimes be annoying, and redirecting stderr to /dev/null would
mean error messages also gets silenced.

useful as a seeking-tool as well as its many other uses. Previously,
dd(1) would succeed with count=0, but wouldn't get to the point that

this specific case doesn't seem to be handled by POSIX.
BDEification process of dd(1). Most of the changes are from BDE's archive.
Support for negative offsets is gone again, but the case where you
lseek() onto byte -1 of something from a negative offset using seek/skip
is fixed; if you end up on -1, you won't get a false positive lseek failure.
The biggest changes are to data types (more size_t, for instance) and
argument parsing. skip/seek on /dev/{,k}mem now occurs (instead of "read
until you reach the offset") due to mem devices now being D_DISK. Some
const things are now correctly declared as such, and the "case table"
building is better. The only thing that seems to be left to make dd(1)
everything TOG wants it to be is l10n.
