* mixer: remove volume backwards compat, add % interpretationKyle Evans2022-06-181-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current situation is fairly confusing, where an integer is interpreted as a percent until you slap a decimal on it and magically it becomes an absolute value. Let's have a flag day in 14.0 and remove this shim entirely. Setting with percent can still be useful, so allow a trailing '%' to indicate as such. As a side effect, we tighten down the format allowed in the volume a little bit by ensuring there's no trailing garbage after the value once it's separated into left and right components.

* Replace literal uses of /usr/local in C sources with _PATH_LOCALBASEStefan Eßer2020-10-271-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Literal references to /usr/local exist in a large number of files in the FreeBSD base system. Many are in contributed software, in configuration files, or in the documentation, but 19 uses have been identified in C source files or headers outside the contrib and sys/contrib directories. This commit makes it possible to set _PATH_LOCALBASE in paths.h to use a different prefix for locally installed software. In order to avoid changes to openssh source files, LOCALBASE is passed to the build via Makefiles under src/secure. While _PATH_LOCALBASE could have been used here, there is precedent in the construction of the path used to a xauth program which depends on the LOCALBASE value passed on the compiler command line to select a non-default directory. This could be changed in a later commit to make the openssh build consistently use _PATH_LOCALBASE. It is considered out-of-scope for this commit.

Other examples include displaying I/O in top(1), querying sysctl(8) for active CPUs and available RAM. Mention systat(1) and its options, too.
