Mapping the framebuffer with WC (Write Combined) memory type can, in practice, cause some memory transactions to be rate-limited at a fraction of the fb write rate. WC allows one core to queue up many globally visible write transactions, and in the process some unrelated transactions may end up having to wait for all of the queued up PCI writes to be flushed. Add an hw.efifb.cache_attr tunable to allow mapping the framebuffer as uncacheable instead. We should likely be taking a more careful approach of checking the memory map to determine which cacheability attributes are feasible, but the knob lets us use our historically functional behavior while offering a convenient way to switch on a stock kernel. The only valid values for hw.efifb.cache_attr at this time are "uc" and "wc". Original patch by Marc De La Gueronniere <mdelagueronniere@verisign.com> along with previous testing.

FreeBSD Kernel Source:
This directory contains the source files and build glue that make up the FreeBSD kernel and its modules, including both original and contributed software.
Kernel configuration files are located in the conf/
subdirectory of each
architecture. GENERIC
is the configuration used in release builds. NOTES
contains documentation of all possible entries. LINT
is a compile-only
configuration used to maximize build coverage and detect regressions.
