Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

<content type='text'>
This commit, long overdue, contains contributions in the last 2 years
from Stefano Garzarella, Giuseppe Lettieri, Vincenzo Maffione, including:
+ fixes on monitor ports
+ the 'ptnet' virtual device driver, and ptnetmap backend, for
  high speed virtual passthrough on VMs (bhyve fixes in an upcoming commit)
+ improved emulated netmap mode
+ more robust error handling
+ removal of stale code
+ various fixes to code and documentation (some mixup between RX and TX
  parameters, and private and public variables)

We also include an additional tool, nmreplay, which is functionally
equivalent to tcpreplay but operating on netmap ports.

Most relevant features:

- netmap emulation on any NIC, even those without native netmap support.

  On the ixgbe we have measured about 4Mpps/core/queue in this mode,
  which is still a lot more than with sockets/bpf.

- seamless interconnection of VALE switch, NICs and host stack.

  If you disable accelerations on your NIC (say em0)

        ifconfig em0 -txcsum -txcsum

  you can use the VALE switch to connect the NIC and the host stack:

        vale-ctl -h valeXX:em0

  allowing sharing the NIC with other netmap clients.

- THE USER API HAS SLIGHTLY CHANGED (head/cur/tail pointers
  instead of pointers/count as before). This was unavoidable to support,
  in the future, multiple threads operating on the same rings.
  Netmap clients require very small source code changes to compile again.
      On the plus side, the new API should be easier to understand
  and the internals are a lot simpler.

The manual page has been updated extensively to reflect the current
features and give some examples.

This is the result of work of several people including Giuseppe Lettieri,
Vincenzo Maffione, Michio Honda and myself, and has been financially
supported by EU projects CHANGE and OPENLAB, from NetApp University
Research Fund, NEC, and of course the Universita` di Pisa.
