+4d707825bf62:
+ The pdwait(2) system call was added. It provides wait(2)-like
+ functionality for a process descriptor (see procdesc(4)).
+
+5c2ee618d5ec:
+ The pdrfork(2) system call was added. It behaves like rfork(2) but
+ additionally returns a process descriptor (see procdesc(4)).
+
+41ccf82b29f3, 591c7a08bf8a:
+ On arm64, memcpy(3), memmove(3) and memset(3) are now implemented using
+ the MOPS (Memory Operations) feature instructions when they are
+ implemented by the system.
+
+3f0aea09689f:
+ posix_spawnattr_getexecfd_np(3) and posix_spawnattr_setexecfd_np(3)
+ functions were added to libc. The latter causes posix_spawn(3) to
+ call fexecve(2) on the specified file descriptor rather than executing
+ the file at the provided path.
+
+fb4b0c911951:
+ witness(4) now prints additional information to the system console when
+ a lock order reversal is detected, making debugging such issues easier.
+
+1322760fd127:
+ It is now possible to compile both the 4BSD and ULE schedulers into the
+ same kernel. The scheduler is selectable at boot-time using a tunable.
+ See the SCHEDULERS section of the tuning(7) man page for details.
+
+627e126dbb07:
+ The default value of the net.inet6.ip6.connect_in6addr_wild has changed
+ to 0. This means that connecting to the all-zeroes IPv6 address no longer
+ implicitly results in a loopback connection.
+
+afa70a8496e9:
+ The pthread_tryjoin_np(3) function was added to libthr(3). It provides
+ the same functionality as pthread_join(3) but returns instead of
+ blocking if the target thread has not yet exited.
+
+ecc039be7fdd:
+ NanoBSD images can now be built as a non-root user.

Update smartpqi(4) to vendor version 14.4690.0.2008 - 15.2.0.2008
for the SmartArray storage controllers. This adds support for new
