Add two spare elements for planned but not yet implemented stuff related
to device driver unloading. Adding these two now and MT5'ing them will
allow us to preserve binary compatibility on RELENG_5 when these facilities
are MFC'ed.
Add mkuzip(8), non-GPL utility to compress filesystem images for use with
geom_uzip module. This is based on utility I wrote some 3 years ago for a
hack for md(4), which functionally was close to what geom_uzip does today.
Since I don't have a time to test that it compiles/works on other arches,
stick it to i386 only. Will do it later.
Unlike original cloop util, this one embedds FreeBSD-compatible shell code
into the generated image, not Linux one. Unfortunately severe space
restriction imposed by the CLOOP format doesn't allow to put conditional
code which will work both on Linux and FreeBSD. In fact it was quite a
challenge to fit necessary FreeBSD code into 127 bytes. ;-)
Add netrate (netreceive, netsend), a tool for generating (and sinking)
UDP packets of specified size at a fixed rate. I've been using this for
netperf-related testing.
I found "portsdb -u" dumps core with recent INDEX file, and this is
caused by refering broken (uninitialized?) pointer which is retrieved
from __bt_new() (and from mpool_new()).
I don't know why this linp[0] is read before stored because this
should be controlled by .lower and .upper member of PAGE structure
which are correctly initialized.
But this workaround fixes the problem on my environment and this
module has #ifdef PURIFY option which initializes new and reused
memory from mpool by memset(p, 0xff, size) like as I did.
Please feel free to fix the real bug instead of my workaround.

Reduce the amount of memory reported to busdma.
This made the requirements for bouncebuffers too big with PAE.
Cleanup the way size defines for transfers are implemented.
Convert sndstat_lock from a mutex to an sx lock. sndstat_read()
holds sndstat_lock across a call to uiomove(), which is not legal
to do with a mutex because of the possibility that the data transfer
could sleep because of a page fault. It is not possible to just
unlock the mutex for the uiomove() call without introducing another
locking mechanism to prevent the body of sndstat_read() from being
re-entered. Converting sndstat_lock to an sx lock is the least
complicated change.
Better fix the busdma problem exposed by ATA. With the CMD 646 for
example the maximum segment size is 64K while the boundary is set
to 8K due to controller limitations. It is impossible to NOT cross
the boundary for any segment size that's larger than the boundary.
So, once we inherited the boundary from the parent tag, make sure
to reduce the maximum segment size to the boundary if it was larger.
Fix a problem mentioned in the previous revision in a different,
non-intrusive way. This should also fix the PowerPC build that
broke due to this change.
The previous commit, roughly one and a half years ago removed the
branch prediction optimization for LINT, because the kernel was too
large. This commit now removes it altogether since it causes build
failures for GENERIC kernels and the various applicable trends are
such that one can expect that it these failure will cause more
problems than they're worth in the future. These trends include:
1. Alpha was demoted from tier 1 to tier 2 due to lack of active
support. The number of people willing to fix build breakages
is not likely to increase and those developers that do have the
gumption to test MI changes on alpha are not likely to spend
time fixing unexpected build failures first.
2. The kernel will only increase in size. Even though stripped-down
kernels do link without problems now, compiler optimizations (like
inlining) and new (non-optional) functionality will likely cause
stripped-down kernels to break in the future as well.
So, with my asbestos suit on, get rid of potential problems before
they happen.
Add comments about why we're freeing subdevs (which is completely
redundant at this point and should be retired). Don't free subdevs if
we don't attach any devices. This was leaving stale device_t's
around. Don't touch the device if it isn't attached since the name
isn't meaningful then. Switch from strncpy (properly used) to
strlcpy.
We don't need a uhub_child_detached() routine now that we don't detach
device_t instances when no driver attaches. They are left around, and
we need to remember them.
# The usbd_device_handle->subdevs[] array likely is completely bogus
# at this point, but one change at a time, since its removal will need
# to have similar code replace it extracted from newbus.
Part of the patch submitted by Peter Pentchev after an excellent
analysis of the underlying problems.
Teach the stack trace code how to step across a double fault when stepping
across frames. Basically, if the current frame is for the
'dblfault_handler' function, then get the next %eip and %ebp values to use
from the original TSS of the thread that has the saved state when the
double fault triggered.
For the moment, back out my back out of green's 1.87 commit. While it
produced better results for a test program I had here, it didn't
substantially change the number of crashes that I saw. Both the old
code and the new code seemed to produce the same crashes from the usb
layer. Since the new code also solves a close() crash, go with it
until the underlying issues wrt devices going away can be addressed.
Add the macro RES_DFLRETRY long-promised by resolver(5).
It specifies the default number of retries per a name server.
This makes the code consistent with the manpage and allows to
kill another constant in res_init.c that should have been a
#define'd parameter. (This appears to be a case when the manpage
was better than the code, so the latter was to be fixed.)
Do not call xl_init_locked() unconditionally when we are bringed UP. Call
it only if we weren't UP before. In some cases xl_init causes long media
re-negotiation, and ppp(8) fails to open PPPoE connection because it sets
IFF_UP every time before opening PPPoE connection.
The disk labels generated by bsdlabel can no address more than
0xffffffff sectors. Document this limit and avoid installing bogus
labels on disks with more sectors.
Allowing the installation of labels addressing as much of the disk as
possiable may be a useful addition in some situations, but this was easy
to implement and should reduce confusion.
Reformulate bpf_dettachd() to acquire the BIF_LOCK() as well as
BPFD_LOCK() when removing a descriptor from an interface descriptor
list. Hold both over the operation, and do a better job at
maintaining the invariant that you can't find partially connected
descriptors on an active interface descriptor list.
This appears to close a race that resulted in the kernel performing
a NULL pointer dereference when BPF sessions are detached during
heavy network activity on SMP systems.

Add/document autoreq_getxid(3), which gets the autofs request
transaction id from the request, this is useful for debugging.
Fix the autoh_freeall(3) function to properly free the array of
auto handles. Before it was freeing individual members of the list
OK, however it was then advancing the pointer and freeing the wrong
data for the whole list.
Reformulate use of linked lists in 'struct bpf_d' and 'struct bpf_if'
to use queue(3) list macros rather than hand-crafted lists. While
here, move to doubly linked lists to eliminate iterating lists in
order to remove entries. This change simplifies and clarifies the
list logic in the BPF descriptor code as a first step towards revising
the locking strategy.
Reduce the size of struct defid's defid_dirclust, defid_dirofs and
(disabled) defid_gen members from u_long to u_int32_t so that alignment
requirements don't cause the structure to become larger than struct fid
on LP64 platforms. This fixes NFS exports of msdos filesystems on at
least amd64.
Merge from NetBSD:
Fix a problem in previous: we can't blindly assume that we have
wincnt entries available at the offset the file has been found. If the dos
directory entry is not preceded by appropriate number of long name
entries (happens e.g. when the filesystem is corrupted, or when
the filename complies to DOS rules and doesn't use any long name entry),
we would overwrite random directory entries.
There are still some problems, the whole thing has to be revisited and solved
right.
Merge from NetBSD:
Fix a panic that occurred when trying to traverse a corrupt msdosfs
filesystem. With this particular corruption, the code in pcbmap()
would compute an offset into an array that was way out of bounds,
so check the bounds before trying to access and return an error if
the offset would be out of bounds.
The pcm(4) manpage wasn't renamed to sound(4) as there are nearby
plans to rename "device sound" to "device snd", to address the
ambiguity in naming, so pcm.4 is linked to sound.4 for the moment.
(We also mumble something about the future plans in the manpage.)
Removed links from pcm.4 to als4000.4 and emu10k1.4 -- they now
have their own snd_*.4 manpages.
Fixes for recent snd_*.4 manpages: added missing "device sound"
to the SYNOPSIS, fixed hints (they are still "hint.pcm.<unit>"
in most cases).
The reference counts are there to block detach until the sleepers in
read/write/ioctl have gotten out, not to prevent the open device from
going away. Restore the old behavior so that we have a chance to wake
up sleepers when the usb device goes away, so they can properly return
EIO back to the caller when this happens.
Otherwise, we have a guarnateed panic waiting to happen when a device
detaches with an active read channel.
Fix a problem with tag->boundary inheritence that has existed since day one
and was propagated to nearly every platform. The boundary of the child needs
to consider the boundary of the parent and pick the minimum of the two, not
the maximum. However, if either is 0 then pick the appropriate one.
This bug was exposed by a recent change to ATA, which should now be fixed by
this change. The alignment and maxsegsz tag attributes likely also need
a similar review in the near future.
Re-add ifi_epoch, to struct if_data, this time replacing ifi_unused
to avoid ABI changes. It is set to the last time the interface
counters were zeroed, currently the time if_attach() was called. It is
intentended to be a valid value for RFC2233's ifCounterDiscontinuityTime
and to make it easier for applications to verify that the interface they
find at a given index is the one that was there last time they looked.
Due to space constraints ifi_epoch is a time_t rather then a struct
timeval. SNMP would prefer higher precision, but this unlikely to be
useful in practice.
Sync the busdma code with i386. The most tangible upshot is that
the alignment and boundary constraints are being respected, which
fixes the reported ATA problems with SiI chips.
I consider the busdma implementation worrisome nonetheless. Not
only is there too much MI code duplicated in MD files, there's a
lot of questionable code. I smell a wholesale, cross-platform
overhaul coming...
Switch the default scheduler to 4BSD to match what will go into RELENG_5 soon.

- Remove listing for NCR5380/NCR53400 and UltraStor 14F/24F/3F4;
the drivers were removed over 5 years ago.
- Note that WD7000 is supported by the wds(4) driver and move it
to the generic SCSI section, since it was converted to CAM some time ago.
- Remove section about non-CAM drivers, since there are none left in

Don't change the state of the system in acpi_tz_establish(). Before, we
would turn off all fans when initializing a zone. However, the HP Omnibook
500 generates a notify saying the zone needs to be re-evaluated whenever
its fan is switched on or off. This produced an infinite loop. Also, note
that running _SCP can generate the same notify.
Since we need to make sure old fan references are turned off when getting
new ones, run acpi_tz_monitor() first. This will turn off any unneeded
fans. Then, check for new settings. After that, run acpi_tz_monitor()
again to turn on/off any fans referenced by the new settings.
Instead of trusting _STA from power resources, cache the first value
returned and then infer the state from calls to _ON/_OFF. This works
around a problem in systems that don't correctly report the state (i.e.
the HP Omnibook 500 reports "on" for its fan always after it has been
turned on once).
