net/dpdk-20.11: Fix build warnings about symbols in version map file The latest versions of ld are throwing warnings/errors about entries in the linker script that don't exist in the actual build. For DPDK, there are functions in the linker script (version.map) which only exist on Linux (and sometimes only on Windows) but not on BSD. To avoid warnings/errors, we can restore old behaviour by adding the "-Wl,--undefined-version" flag to the build. PR: 27627789bcc8c4a4

The Intel(R) DPDK requires two kernel modules to be loaded in order to run. To load these modules add loading lines to /boot/loader.conf contigmem_load="YES" nic_uio_load="YES" The modules each take a number of parameters. These should be set in loader.conf before the above two lines to load the module. * The "contigmem" module is used to reserve contiguous blocks of physical memory for packet buffer use. It takes parameters for the number and size of blocks to be reserved. An example is below, reserving a single 1G block: hw.contigmem.num_buffers=1 hw.contigmem.buffer_size=1073741824 * The "nic_uio" module is used to expose the network card (NIC) hardware directly to userspace for use with the Intel(R) DPDK. If the NIC ports to be used are in use by an existing driver, the nic_uio module can unbind the port from its existing driver when requested to do so. This is done by passing the relevant PCI bus, device and function settings to the driver as parameters. For example: hw.nic_uio.bdfs="2:0:0,2:0:1"

all: remove explicit versions in USES=python for "3.x+"
The logic in USES=python will automatically convert this to 3.8+ by
itself.
Adjust two ports that only had Python 3.7 mentioned but build fine
on Python 3.8 too.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on WWW: lines in pkg-descr files. This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these pkg-descr files. Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)fb16dfecae
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources. Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the port specific URL to further information. There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time. This commit implements such a proposal and moves one of the WWW: entries of each pkg-descr file into the respective port's Makefile. A heuristic attempts to identify the most relevant URL in case there is more than one WWW: entry in some pkg-descr file. URLs that are not moved into the Makefile are prefixed with "See also:" instead of "WWW:" in the pkg-descr files in order to preserve them. There are 1256 ports that had no WWW: entries in pkg-descr files. These ports will not be touched in this commit. The portlint port has been adjusted to expect a WWW entry in each port Makefile, and to flag any remaining "WWW:" lines in pkg-descr files as deprecated. Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)b7f05445c0

Style: improve ONLY_FOR_ARCHS_REASON (grammar, markup, etc.) ONLY_FOR_ARCHS_REASON is used as part of the sentence and thus should start with lower-case letter and not end with a period which is added by the framework, similar to other knobs like BROKEN, IGNORE, et al. While here, remove needless quoting, add missing Oxford comma, expand contractions and jargonisms, use correct spelling for proper names.61b6613393
