The ocs_fc(4) driver supports the following hardware:
Emulex 16/8G FC GEN 5 HBAS
LPe15004 FC Host Bus Adapters
LPe160XX FC Host Bus Adapters
Emulex 32/16G FC GEN 6 HBAS
LPe3100X FC Host Bus Adapters
LPe3200X FC Host Bus Adapters
The driver supports target and initiator mode, and also supports FC-Tape.
Note that the driver only currently works on little endian platforms. It
is only included in the module build for amd64 and i386, and in GENERIC
on amd64 only.

Add a new "interleave" allocation policy which stripes pages across
domains with a stride or width keeping contiguity within a multi-page
region.
Move the kernel to the dedicated numbered cpuset #2 making it possible
to assign kernel threads and memory policy separately from user. This
also eliminates the need for the complicated interrupt binding code.
Add a sysctl API for viewing and manipulating domainsets. Refactor some
of the cpuset_t manipulation code using the generic bitset type so that
it can be used for both. This probably belongs in a dedicated subr file.
Attempt to improve the include situation.

In a virtual machine, VMCI is exposed as a regular PCI device. The primary
communication mechanisms supported are a point-to-point bidirectional
transport based on a pair of memory-mapped queues, and asynchronous
notifications in the form of datagrams and doorbells. These features are
available to kernel level components such as vSockets through the VMCI
kernel API. In addition to this, the VMCI kernel API provides support for
receiving events related to the state of the VMCI communication channels,
and the virtual machine itself.

DTB Overlays are useful to change/add nodes to a dtb without the need to
modify it.
Add support for building dtbo during buildkernel.
The goal of DTBO present in the FreeBSD source tree is to fill a gap in
time when we submit changes upstream (Linux). Instead of waiting 2 to 4 months
we can add a DTBO in tree in the meantime.
This is not for adding DTBO for capes/hat/addon boards, those will be
better to put in a ports.
This is also not for enabling a i2c/spi/pwm controller on certain pins,
each user have a different use case for those (which pins to use etc ...)
and we cannot have all possible configuration.
Add a dtbo for sun8i-h3-sid which add the SID node missing in upstream dts.

Forwarded packets passed through PFIL_OUT, which made it difficult for
firewalls to figure out if they were forwarding or producing packets. This in
turn is an issue for pf for IPv6 fragment handling: it needs to call
ip6_output() or ip6_forward() to handle the fragments. Figuring out which was
difficult (and until now, incorrect).
Having pfil distinguish the two removes an ugly piece of code from pf.
Introduce a new variant of the netpfil callbacks with a flags variable, which
has PFIL_FWD set for forwarded packets. This allows pf to reliably work out if
a packet is forwarded.

This is originally based on a patch from David Chisnall for soft-float
N64 but has since been updated to support O32, N32, and hard-float ABIs.
The soft-float O32, N32, and N64 support has been committed upstream.
The hard-float changes are still in review upstream.
Enable LLVM_LIBUNWIND on mips when building with a suitable (C+11-capable)
toolchain. This has been tested with external GCC for all ABIs and
O32 and N64 with clang.

ECN (ABE)" proposal to the New Reno congestion control algorithm module.
ABE reduces the amount of congestion window reduction in response to
ECN-signalled congestion relative to the loss-inferred congestion response.
More details about ABE can be found in the Internet-Draft:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tcpm-alternativebackoff-ecn
The implementation introduces four new sysctls:
- net.inet.tcp.cc.abe defaults to 0 (disabled) and can be set to non-zero to
enable ABE for ECN-enabled TCP connections.
- net.inet.tcp.cc.newreno.beta and net.inet.tcp.cc.newreno.beta_ecn set the
multiplicative window decrease factor, specified as a percentage, applied to
the congestion window in response to a loss-based or ECN-based congestion
signal respectively. They default to the values specified in the draft i.e.
beta=50 and beta_ecn=80.
- net.inet.tcp.cc.abe_frlossreduce defaults to 0 (disabled) and can be set to
non-zero to enable the use of standard beta (50% by default) when repairing
loss during an ECN-signalled congestion recovery episode. It enables a more
conservative congestion response and is provided for the purposes of
experimentation as a result of some discussion at IETF 100 in Singapore.
The values of beta and beta_ecn can also be set per-connection by way of the
TCP_CCALGOOPT TCP-level socket option and the new CC_NEWRENO_BETA or
CC_NEWRENO_BETA_ECN CC algo sub-options.

ConnectX-4/5 devices in mlx5core.
The dump is obtained by reading a predefined register map from the
non-destructive crspace, accessible by the vendor-specific PCIe
capability (VSC). The dump is stored in preallocated kernel memory and
managed by the mlx5tool(8), which communicates with the driver using a
character device node.
The utility allows to store the dump in format
<address> <value>
into a file, to reset the dump content, and to manually initiate the
dump.
A call to mlx5_fwdump() should be added at the places where a dump
must be fetched automatically. The most likely place is right before a
firmware reset request.
