From the man page: “The tpm driver provides support for various trusted platform modules (TPM) that can store cryptographic keys.” Crypto keys stored in hardware, where they are in theory unmangleable, instead of on the disk. At least, that’s my impression after 30 seconds of research.

You can still try it, as it’s present in DragonFly but not on by default.  Help with driver porting is always welcome, of course.

For the confused, ‘foreign’ means any disk hooked to a RAID controller that isn’t part of a configuration the RAID device already knows about.  A replacement disk, or more worryingly, a good disk gone bad/unrecognizable.  (I’ve had both.)

It needs to be tested for wpi(4) and iwi(4), however, so if you have success or failure with those devices, please say so in reply.

(new post category starting now: “Please test”)

(at least, I think so.)

Removed: support for ISA sound cards, by Sascha Wildner.  Goodbye sb16; I’ll remember you fondly.

Quick summary, the multiple TX queue support gives me:
+200Kpps for 2 bidirectional normal IP forwarding (now 4.40Mpps)
+160Kpps for 2 bidirectional fast IP forwarding (now 5.23Mpps)

We need more fiddling-with-BSD-on-hardware stuff out there.  That would be a good thing for Youtube – hint, hint.

Remember I said he’s improved speeds?  Note that in his example, he’s reaching stable peaks of 981 Mbps.  This is on a line that I assume theoretically maxes out at 1000.
