ACPI_PM=on: ACPI Power Management support

LINUX=on: Linux compatibility support
WBINVD=off: Flush CPU caches directly with WBINVD
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
- Options name:
- x11_nvidia-driver-470
- USES:
- kmod uidfix xorg tar:xz
- pkg-message:
- For install:
- To use these drivers, make sure that you have loaded the NVidia kernel
module, by running
# kldload nvidia-modeset
on the command line, or by putting ``nvidia-modeset'' on the ``kld_list''
variable in /etc/rc.conf, either manually or by running
# sysrc kld_list+=nvidia-modeset
If you build this port with FreeBSD AGP GART driver, make sure you have
agp.ko kernel module installed and loaded, since nvidia.ko will depend
on it, or have your kernel compiled with "device agp". Otherwise, the
NVidia kernel module will not load. Also, please set correct value for
``Option "NvAGP"'' in ``Device'' section of your X11 configuration file.
When building with Linux compatibility support, make sure that linux.ko
module is available as well (or have it compiled in kernel). It can be
loaded via /boot/loader.conf, or later in the boot process if you add
linux_enable="YES"
to your /etc/rc.conf.
If X.org cannot start and reports
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to obtain a shared memory identifier.
in /var/log/Xorg.0.log while actually you have ``options SYSVSHM''
enabled in kernel, the sysctl ``kern.ipc.shmall'' should be increased.
Because in certain 570 versions GSP firmware is known to cause issues
with suspend/resume, thus, disabled by default for now.
On the other hand, some GPUs are known NOT to work without GSP
firmware support.
To enable GSP firmware add hw.nvidia.registry.EnableGpuFirmware=1
to your loader.conf.

x11/nvidia-driver, x11/linux-nvidia-libs: Split and distribute distinfo
per-slave-ports
Currently, upgrades for legacy versions of x11/nvidia-driver and
x11/linux-nvidia-libs are often delayed, due to the conflicts with
master port and forgotton.
This is usually because master and slave (legacy) ports shares distinfo,
causing races between multiple upgrades, even upgrades for legacy ones
are trivial.
This update splits distinfo into master and each slave (legacy) ports
to avoid races unless master Makefile(s) needs updates for to-be-upgraded
slave ports.
update-distinfo target is removed, you can use the standard
'make makesum' in each port now.

x11/nvidia-driver-470, x11/linux-nvidia-libs-470: Update to 470.256.02
Requested updating 470 series of legacy version of driver to 470.256.02
at Bug 285069 - x11/nvidia-driver-470: update from 470.161.03 to
470.256.02.
Tested (by myself) make and make package only, on stable/14, amd64 at
commit 7215aed7974cc4b7d3197ca5e5fcf545d3a28c0f as I myself am not using
470 series of driver anymore.
