tcp_bblog.4: Add a manual page for TCP Blackbox Logging
The tcp_bblog facility provides structured logging of TCP stack activity
for debugging and performance analysis. It is implemented in the kernel
and allows per-connection tracing of TCP events with low overhead.

make-pkg-package.sh: Fix build for pkg 2.8.0
We used to pass CONFIGURE_ARGS to the make command which builds pkg,
but ports/ports-mgmt/pkg/Makefile has its own CONFIGURE_ARGS and the
version we were providing at the command line didn't contain the
--mandir setting which was added to the port with pkg 2.8.0. This
broke release builds.
Instead of passing --prefix=${LOCALBASE} via CONFIGURE_ARGS, pass
PREFIX=${LOCALBASE}; the port Makefile passes that value through to
its configure script. We also used to pass a --host parameter, but
that seems to have become unnecessary at some point in the past decade.

This use of TDB_EXIT is hacky, but I cannot see another way to check for

proc: Copy the p_reapsubtree field explicitly during fork
p_reapsubtree lives in the p_startcopy/p_endcopy block of struct proc,
which is copied during fork without any synchronization. However, the
field is not stable except when the proctree lock is held, and indeed
may change if p1's reaper exits or explicitly releases its reaper
status. This state change can race with fork() and leave the child with
an incorrect p_reapsubtree field.
Close the race: explicitly copy the field under the proctree lock during
fork.

sysctl(9): Booleans: Fix old value length discovery
When calling sysctl(3) with a null 'oldp', i.e., length discovery mode,
'oldix' can be equal to 'oldlen', and we should not fail.
More generally, let SYSCTL_OUT() and SYSCTL_IN() handle corner cases,
simply removing the comparisons between 'oldidx' and 'oldlen' and
'newidx' and 'newlen' done by hand as the test just after is an equality
that does not require to know if 'idx' is smaller than 'len'.

netinet: Promote IFP_TO_IA() from macro to function in_ifprimaryaddr().
in_ifprimaryaddr() exists only to support IPv4 multicast usage. Since the
adoption of epoch tracking, ifa_ref() is no longer required in its body;
that was originally introduced by rwatson in 2009.
We could not use __deprecated1() from <sys/cdefs.h> anyway, as
IFP_TO_IA() is a macro, not a function.

netinet: Replace IFP_TO_IA() with in_ifprimaryaddr() completely.
IPv4 multicast currently has the big caveat that it depends on the first
assigned IPv4 address on an interface (the so-called "primary address").
in_ifprimaryaddr() only needs to be used by the following:
- the 0.0.0.0 booting node input workaround in IGMPv1;
- filtering out the node's own reports in IGMPv2;
- preserving the source IP where an IGMPv3 report has been looped back;
- inferring the default upstream IPv4 interface address for the
IP_MULTICAST_IF socket option;
- and inferring the source address during ip_output() for a multicast
datagram where an interface has been explicitly specified by that option.
All of these uses mandate the use of IPv4 source address selection, but
FreeBSD does not yet (fully) implement this functionality.

vm_page: Fix dequeue on arches with weak ordering
A vm_page's a.queue field records the page queue index for the page
queue to which the page belongs. The PGA_ENQUEUED flag indicates
whether the page is actually enqueued in that queue's TAILQ. When
modifying the a.queue field, you need to hold the page queue lock for
the queue corresponding to the old value, unless the old value is
PQ_NONE.
Suppose a managed page is freed. vm_page_free_prep() calls
vm_page_dequeue_deferred(), which checks whether the page belongs to a
queue; if so it schedules an asynchronous dequeue operation so that page
queue lock acquisitions can be batched if possible.
The dequeue operation must be completed before the page's plinks.q
fields are reused. So, during page allocation, we call
vm_page_dequeue() to finish the dequeue operation. Similarly, since the
buddy allocator uses the plinks.q fields for its own internal linkage,
vm_freelist_add() calls vm_page_dequeue().

taskqueue: Avoid unbounded epoch read sections
The taskqueue thread loop tries to avoid entering and exiting net epoch
read sections for every task. This reduces the overhead of net epoch
integration, but the implementation wasn't bounding the length of the
read section, so a busy taskqueue thread could hold an epoch open for an
unbounded period. This is easy to achieve with the epair task, for
instance.
Bound the number of tasks that we'll execute without observing the
global epoch, and provide a sysctl to control it. Let the default bound
be eight.
