The 'cygnus' option was removed from automake 1.13 in 2012, so the
presence of this option prevents that or a later version of automake
being used.
A check-list of the effects of '--cygnus' from the automake 1.12
documentation, and steps taken (where possible) to preserve those
effects (See also this thread [1] for discussion on that):
[1] https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2012-03/msg00048.html
1. The foreign strictness is implied.
Already present in AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE in newlib/acinclude.m4
2. The options no-installinfo, no-dependencies and no-dist are implied.
Already present in AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE in newlib/acinclude.m4
Future work: Remove no-dependencies and any explicit header dependencies,
and use automatic dependency tracking instead. Are there explicit rules
which are now redundant to removing no-installinfo and no-dist?
3. The macro AM_MAINTAINER_MODE is required.
Already present in newlib/acinclude.m4
Note that maintainer-mode is still disabled by default.
4. Info files are always created in the build directory, and not in the
source directory.
This appears to be an error in the automake documentation describing
'--cygnus' [2]. newlib's info files are generated in the source
directory, and no special steps are needed to keep doing that.
[2] https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-automake/2012-04/msg00028.html
5. texinfo.tex is not required if a Texinfo source file is specified.
(The assumption is that the file will be supplied, but in a place that
automake cannot find.)
This effect is overriden by an explicit setting of the TEXINFO_TEX
variable (the directory part of which is fed into texi2X via the
TEXINPUTS environment variable).
6. Certain tools will be searched for in the build tree as well as in the
user's PATH. These tools are runtest, expect, makeinfo and texi2dvi.
For obscure automake reasons, this effect of '--cygnus' is not active
for makeinfo in newlib's configury.
However, there appears to be top-level configury which selects in-tree
runtest, expect and makeinfo, if present. So, if that works as it
appears, this effect is preserved. If not, this may cause problem if
anyone is building those tools in-tree.
This effect is not preserved for texi2dvi. This may cause problems if
anyone is building texinfo in-tree.
If needed, explicit checks for those tools looking in places relative to
$(top_srcdir)/../ as well as in PATH could be added.
7. The check target doesn't depend on all.
This effect is not preseved. The check target now depends on the all
target.
This concern seems somewhat academic given the current state of the
testsuite.
Also note that this doesn't touch libgloss.

KTLS adds support for in-kernel framing and encryption of Transport
Layer Security (1.0-1.2) data on TCP sockets. KTLS only supports
offload of TLS for transmitted data. Key negotation must still be
performed in userland. Once completed, transmit session keys for a
connection are provided to the kernel via a new TCP_TXTLS_ENABLE
socket option. All subsequent data transmitted on the socket is
placed into TLS frames and encrypted using the supplied keys.
Any data written to a KTLS-enabled socket via write(2), aio_write(2),
or sendfile(2) is assumed to be application data and is encoded in TLS
frames with an application data type. Individual records can be sent
with a custom type (e.g. handshake messages) via sendmsg(2) with a new
control message (TLS_SET_RECORD_TYPE) specifying the record type.
At present, rekeying is not supported though the in-kernel framework
should support rekeying.
KTLS makes use of the recently added unmapped mbufs to store TLS
frames in the socket buffer. Each TLS frame is described by a single
ext_pgs mbuf. The ext_pgs structure contains the header of the TLS
record (and trailer for encrypted records) as well as references to
the associated TLS session.
KTLS supports two primary methods of encrypting TLS frames: software
TLS and ifnet TLS.
Software TLS marks mbufs holding socket data as not ready via
M_NOTREADY similar to sendfile(2) when TLS framing information is
added to an unmapped mbuf in ktls_frame(). ktls_enqueue() is then
called to schedule TLS frames for encryption. In the case of
sendfile_iodone() calls ktls_enqueue() instead of pru_ready() leaving
the mbufs marked M_NOTREADY until encryption is completed. For other
writes (vn_sendfile when pages are available, write(2), etc.), the
PRUS_NOTREADY is set when invoking pru_send() along with invoking
ktls_enqueue().
A pool of worker threads (the "KTLS" kernel process) encrypts TLS
frames queued via ktls_enqueue(). Each TLS frame is temporarily
mapped using the direct map and passed to a software encryption
backend to perform the actual encryption.
(Note: The use of PHYS_TO_DMAP could be replaced with sf_bufs if
someone wished to make this work on architectures without a direct
map.)
KTLS supports pluggable software encryption backends. Internally,
Netflix uses proprietary pure-software backends. This commit includes
a simple backend in a new ktls_ocf.ko module that uses the kernel's
OpenCrypto framework to provide AES-GCM encryption of TLS frames. As
a result, software TLS is now a bit of a misnomer as it can make use
of hardware crypto accelerators.
Once software encryption has finished, the TLS frame mbufs are marked
ready via pru_ready(). At this point, the encrypted data appears as
regular payload to the TCP stack stored in unmapped mbufs.
ifnet TLS permits a NIC to offload the TLS encryption and TCP
segmentation. In this mode, a new send tag type (IF_SND_TAG_TYPE_TLS)
is allocated on the interface a socket is routed over and associated
with a TLS session. TLS records for a TLS session using ifnet TLS are
not marked M_NOTREADY but are passed down the stack unencrypted. The
ip_output_send() and ip6_output_send() helper functions that apply
send tags to outbound IP packets verify that the send tag of the TLS
record matches the outbound interface. If so, the packet is tagged
with the TLS send tag and sent to the interface. The NIC device
driver must recognize packets with the TLS send tag and schedule them
for TLS encryption and TCP segmentation. If the the outbound
interface does not match the interface in the TLS send tag, the packet
is dropped. In addition, a task is scheduled to refresh the TLS send
tag for the TLS session. If a new TLS send tag cannot be allocated,
the connection is dropped. If a new TLS send tag is allocated,
however, subsequent packets will be tagged with the correct TLS send
tag. (This latter case has been tested by configuring both ports of a
Chelsio T6 in a lagg and failing over from one port to another. As
the connections migrated to the new port, new TLS send tags were
allocated for the new port and connections resumed without being
dropped.)
ifnet TLS can be enabled and disabled on supported network interfaces
via new '[-]txtls[46]' options to ifconfig(8). ifnet TLS is supported
across both vlan devices and lagg interfaces using failover, lacp with
flowid enabled, or lacp with flowid enabled.
Applications may request the current KTLS mode of a connection via a
new TCP_TXTLS_MODE socket option. They can also use this socket
option to toggle between software and ifnet TLS modes.
In addition, a testing tool is available in tools/tools/switch_tls.
This is modeled on tcpdrop and uses similar syntax. However, instead
of dropping connections, -s is used to force KTLS connections to
switch to software TLS and -i is used to switch to ifnet TLS.
Various sysctls and counters are available under the kern.ipc.tls
sysctl node. The kern.ipc.tls.enable node must be set to true to
enable KTLS (it is off by default). The use of unmapped mbufs must
also be enabled via kern.ipc.mb_use_ext_pgs to enable KTLS.
KTLS is enabled via the KERN_TLS kernel option.
This patch is the culmination of years of work by several folks
including Scott Long and Randall Stewart for the original design and
implementation; Drew Gallatin for several optimizations including the
use of ext_pgs mbufs, the M_NOTREADY mechanism for TLS records
awaiting software encryption, and pluggable software crypto backends;
and John Baldwin for modifications to support hardware TLS offload.

multiple unmapped pages.
Unmapped mbufs allow sendfile to carry multiple pages of data in a
single mbuf, without mapping those pages. It is a requirement for
Netflix's in-kernel TLS, and provides a 5-10% CPU savings on heavy web
serving workloads when used by sendfile, due to effectively
compressing socket buffers by an order of magnitude, and hence
reducing cache misses.
For this new external mbuf buffer type (EXT_PGS), the ext_buf pointer
now points to a struct mbuf_ext_pgs structure instead of a data
buffer. This structure contains an array of physical addresses (this
reduces cache misses compared to an earlier version that stored an
array of vm_page_t pointers). It also stores additional fields needed
for in-kernel TLS such as the TLS header and trailer data that are
currently unused. To more easily detect these mbufs, the M_NOMAP flag
is set in m_flags in addition to M_EXT.
Various functions like m_copydata() have been updated to safely access
packet contents (using uiomove_fromphys()), to make things like BPF
safe.
NIC drivers advertise support for unmapped mbufs on transmit via a new
IFCAP_NOMAP capability. This capability can be toggled via the new
'nomap' and '-nomap' ifconfig(8) commands. For NIC drivers that only
transmit packet contents via DMA and use bus_dma, adding the
capability to if_capabilities and if_capenable should be all that is
required.
If a NIC does not support unmapped mbufs, they are converted to a
chain of mapped mbufs (using sf_bufs to provide the mapping) in
ip_output or ip6_output. If an unmapped mbuf requires software
checksums, it is also converted to a chain of mapped mbufs before
computing the checksum.

into using a STAILQ instead of a linear array.
The multicast memberships for the inpcb structure are protected by a
non-sleepable lock, INP_WLOCK(), which needs to be dropped when
calling the underlying possibly sleeping if_ioctl() method. When using
a linear array to keep track of multicast memberships, the computed
memory location of the multicast filter may suddenly change, due to
concurrent insertion or removal of elements in the linear array. This
in turn leads to various invalid memory access issues and kernel
panics.
To avoid this problem, put all multicast memberships on a STAILQ based
list. Then the memory location of the IPv4 and IPv6 multicast filters
become fixed during their lifetime and use after free and memory leak
issues are easier to track, for example by: vmstat -m | grep multi

protections.
A new macro PROT_MAX() alters a protection value so it can be OR'd with
a regular protection value to specify the maximum permissions. If
present, these flags specify the maximum permissions.
While these flags are non-portable, they can be used in portable code
with simple ifdefs to expand PROT_MAX() to 0.
This change allows (e.g.) a region that must be writable during run-time
linking or JIT code generation to be made permanently read+execute after
writes are complete. This complements W^X protections allowing more
precise control by the programmer.
This change alters mprotect argument checking and returns an error when
unhandled protection flags are set. This differs from POSIX (in that
POSIX only specifies an error), but is the documented behavior on Linux
and more closely matches historical mmap behavior.
In addition to explicit setting of the maximum permissions, an
experimental sysctl vm.imply_prot_max causes mmap to assume that the
initial permissions requested should be the maximum when the sysctl is
set to 1. PROT_NONE mappings are excluded from this for compatibility
with rtld and other consumers that use such mappings to reserve
address space before mapping contents into part of the reservation. A
final version this is expected to provide per-binary and per-process
opt-in/out options and this sysctl will go away in its current form.
As such it is undocumented.

There is a hashing algorithm which should distribute IPv6 reassembly
queues across the available buckets in a relatively even way. However,
if there is a flaw in the hashing algorithm which allows a large number
of IPv6 fragment reassembly queues to end up in a single bucket, a per-
bucket limit could help mitigate the performance impact of this flaw.
Implement such a limit, with a default of twice the maximum number of
reassembly queues divided by the number of buckets. Recalculate the
limit any time the maximum number of reassembly queues changes.
However, allow the user to override the value using a sysctl

The IPv4 fragment reassembly code supports a limit on the number of
fragments per packet. The default limit is currently 17 fragments.
Among other things, this limit serves to limit the number of fragments
the code must parse when trying to reassembly a packet.
Add a limit to the IPv6 reassembly code. By default, limit a packet
to 65 fragments (64 on the queue, plus one final fragment to complete
the packet). This allows an average fragment size of 1,008 bytes, which
should be sufficient to hold a fragment. (Recall that the IPv6 minimum
MTU is 1280 bytes. Therefore, this configuration allows a full-size
IPv6 packet to be fragmented on a link with the minimum MTU and still
carry approximately 272 bytes of headers before the fragmented portion
of the packet.)
Users can adjust this limit using the net.inet6.ip6.maxfragsperpacket
