Add delay to Octeon MDIO access routines.
Prevent saturattion of the bus by constant polling which in
extreme cases can cause interface lockup. This makes FreeBSD
match similar case in the executive.
Rename the choices in the partitioning methods dialog to reflect current
reality. In particular, draw a connection between the auto ZFS script and
the auto UFS one, since they fulfill similar functions. I'm not sure the
auto ZFS code is actually experimental anymore, so it might be worth
changing that label still.
Make the default choice for the chroot shell at the end be "No". This allows
just pressing enter repeatedly to successfully install a reasonable system.
When asked to find a hole, the DMU sees that there are no holes in the
object, and returns ESRCH. The ZPL interprets this as "no holes before
the end of the file", and therefore inserts the "virtual hole" at the
end of the file. Because DMU and ZPL have different ideas of where the
end of an object/file is, we will end up returning the end of file,
which is generally larger, instead of returning the end of object.
The fix is to handle the "virtual hole" in the DMU. If no hole is found,
the DMU will return a hole at the end of the file, rather than an error.

Make inclusion of fdt clock support conditional on fdt_clock, not just fdt.
There are plenty of platforms that use fdt without needing the overhead of
the new clock support routines.
Add a new tunable/sysctl, vfs.zfs.free_max_blocks, which can be used to
limit how many blocks can be free'ed before a new transaction group is
created. The default is no limit (infinite), but we should probably have
a lower default, e.g. 100,000.
With this limit, we can guard against the case where ZFS could run out of
memory when destroying large numbers of blocks in a single transaction
group, as the entire DDT needs to be brought into memory.
Illumos issue:
5138 add tunable for maximum number of blocks freed in one txg
Implement control over command reordering via options and control mode page.
It allows to bypass range checks between UNMAP and READ/WRITE commands,
which may introduce additional delays while waiting for UNMAP parameters.
READ and WRITE commands are always processed in safe order since their
range checks are almost free.
Improve transmit sending offload, TSO, algorithm in general.
The current TSO limitation feature only takes the total number of
bytes in an mbuf chain into account and does not limit by the number
of mbufs in a chain. Some kinds of hardware is limited by two
factors. One is the fragment length and the second is the fragment
count. Both of these limits need to be taken into account when doing
TSO. Else some kinds of hardware might have to drop completely valid
mbuf chains because they cannot loaded into the given hardware's DMA
engine. The new way of doing TSO limitation has been made backwards
compatible as input from other FreeBSD developers and will use
defaults for values not set.
Implement range checks between UNMAP and READ/WRITE commands.
Before this change UNMAP completely blocked other I/Os while running.
Now it blocks only colliding ones, slowing down others only due to ZFS
locks collisions.
Workaround for receiving Voice Calls using the E1750 dongle from
Huawei. It might appear as if the firmware is allocating memory blocks
according to the USB transfer size and if there is initially a lot of
data, like at the answering machine prompt, it simply dies without any
apparent reason. The simple workaround for this is to force a zero
length packet at hardware level after every 512 bytes of data. This
will force the other side to use smaller memory blocks aswell.
Fix various issues with invalid file operations:
- Add invfo_rdwr() (for read and write), invfo_ioctl(), invfo_poll(),
and invfo_kqfilter() for use by file types that do not support the
respective operations. Home-grown versions of invfo_poll() were
universally broken (they returned an errno value, invfo_poll()
uses poll_no_poll() to return an appropriate event mask). Home-grown
ioctl routines also tended to return an incorrect errno (invfo_ioctl
returns ENOTTY).
- Use the invfo_*() functions instead of local versions for
unsupported file operations.
- Reorder fileops members to match the order in the structure definition
to make it easier to spot missing members.
- Add several missing methods to linuxfileops used by the OFED shim
layer: fo_write(), fo_truncate(), fo_kqfilter(), and fo_stat(). Most
of these used invfo_*(), but a dummy fo_stat() implementation was
added.
Simplify vntype_to_kinfo() by returning when the desired value is found
instead of breaking out of the loop and then immediately checking the loop
index so that if it was broken out of the proper value can be returned.
- Don't let rman_reserve_resource() activate the resource in
nexus_alloc_resource() and don't set a bushandle.
nexus_activate_resource() will set a proper bushandle.
- Implement a proper nexus_release_resource().
- Fix ixppcib_activate_resource() to call rman_activate_resource()
before creating a mapping for the resource.
Add support for adding empty partition entries. I.e. skip partition
numbers or names. This gives more control over the actual layout and
helps to construct BSD disklabels with /usr or /var at dedicated
partitions.

Optimize the common case of injecting an interrupt into a vcpu after a HLT
by explicitly moving it out of the interrupt shadow. The hypervisor is done
"executing" the HLT and by definition this moves the vcpu out of the
1-instruction interrupt shadow.
Prior to this change the interrupt would be held pending because the VMCS
guest-interruptibility-state would indicate that "blocking by STI" was in
effect. This resulted in an unnecessary round trip into the guest before
the pending interrupt could be injected.
Be compatible with boot code that starts right after the disk label in
the second sector by only clearing the amount of bytes needed for the
disklabel in the second sector. Previously we were clearing exactly 1
sector worth of bytes and as such writing over boot code that may have
been there.
Since we do support more than 8 partitions, make sure to set all fields
in d_partitions. For the first 8 partitions this is unneeded, but for
partitioons 9 and up this compensates for the fact that we don't clear
an entire sector anymore.
Obviously, one cannot use more than 8 partitions when using boot code
that starts right after the disk label.
Relevant GRNs:
107879 - Employ unused bytes after the disklabel in the second sector.
189500 - Revert the part of change 107879 that employs the unused bytes
after the disklabel in the 2nd sector for boot code.

Fix checksum calculation:
1. Iterate over all partitions counted in the label, which can be more
than the number of partitions given to mkimg(1).
2. Start the checksum from the beginning of the label; not the beginning
of the bootarea.
Attach the ISO to an ahci-cd emulated device. The
ISO will appear to be mounted on a /dev/cd device
instead of /dev/vtbd. This is similar to how other
virtualization environments handle mounting ISO images.
Revisions 264905 and 266860 added a "int fib" argument to ifa_ifwithnet and
ifa_ifwithdstaddr. For the sake of backwards compatibility, the new
arguments were added to new functions named ifa_ifwithnet_fib and
ifa_ifwithdstaddr_fib, while the old functions became wrappers around the
new ones that passed RT_ALL_FIBS for the fib argument. However, the
backwards compatibility is not desired for FreeBSD 11, because there are
numerous other incompatible changes to the ifnet(9) API. We therefore
decided to remove it from head but leave it in place for stable/9 and
stable/10. In addition, this commit adds the fib argument to
ifa_ifwithbroadaddr for consistency's sake.
sys/sys/param.h
Increment __FreeBSD_version

Don't blindly assume the target agreed to transition to Full Feature Phase;
if we got a Login Response PDU without the "T" bit set, try again with
an empty request. This fixes interoperability with COMSTAR.
Add const qualifier to in6_addrhash() function.
Add in6ifa_ifwithaddr() function. It is similar to ifa_ifwithaddr,
but does fast lookup in the hash of inet6 addresses.
* new macro to remove magic number - IPV6_ADDR_SCOPES_COUNT;
* sa6_checkzone() - this function checks sockaddr_in6 structure
for correctness of sin6_scope_id. It also can fill correct
value sometimes.
* in6_getscopezone() - this function returns scope zone id for
specified interface and scope.
* in6_getlinkifnet() - this function returns struct ifnet for
corresponding zone id of link-local scope.
- Add $netif_ipexpand_max to specify the upper limit for the number of
addresses generated by an address range specification. The default
value is 2048. This can be increased by setting $netif_ipexpand_max
in rc.conf.
- Fix warning messages when an address range spec exceeds the upper limit.
* constify argument of in6_addrscope();
* use IN6_IS_ADDR_XXX() macro instead of hardcoded values;
* for multicast addresses just return scope value, the only exception
is addresses with 0x0F scope value (RFC 4291 p2.7.0);
Add new a M_START() mbuf macro that returns a pointer to the start of
an mbuf's storage (internal or external).
Add a new M_SIZE() mbuf macro that returns the size of an mbuf's
storage (internal or external).
These contrast with m_data and m_len, which are with respect to data
in the buffer, rather than the buffer itself.
Rewrite M_LEADINGSPACE() and M_TRAILINGSPACE() in terms of M_START()
and M_SIZE().
This is done as we currently have many instances of using mbuf flags
to generate pointers or lengths for internal storage in header and
regular mbufs, as well as to external storage. Rather than replicate
this logic throughout the network stack, centralising the
implementation will make it easier for us to refine mbuf storage.
This should also help reduce bugs by limiting the amount of
mbuf-type-specific pointer arithmetic. Followup changes will
propagate use of the macros throughout the stack.
M_SIZE() conflicts with one macro in the Chelsio driver; rename that
macro in a slightly unsatisfying way to eliminate the collision.
Use the linker to perform relocations in the SUNW_dof section rather than
doing them in drti during startup. This fixes a number of problems with
using USDT probes in stripped executables and shared libraries, and with
USDT probes in static functions.
Fix a bug which could break extended attributes in a dump output.
This occurred when a file was >892kB long and had a large data (>1kB)
in the extended attributes.
MFamd64: Use initializecpu() to set various model-specific registers on
AP startup and AP resume (it was already used for BSP startup and BSP
resume).
- Split code to do one-time probing of cache properties out of
initializecpu() and into initializecpucache(). This is called once on
the BSP during boot.
- Move enable_sse() into initializecpu().
- Call initializecpu() for AP startup instead of enable_sse() and
manually frobbing MSR_EFER to enable PG_NX.
- Call initializecpu() when an AP resumes. In theory this will now
properly re-enable PG_NX in MSR_EFER when resuming a PAE kernel on
APs.
To workaround an errata on certain Pentium Pro CPUs, i386 disables
the local APIC in initializecpu() and re-enables it if the APIC code
decides to use the local APIC after all. Rework this workaround
slightly so that initializecpu() won't re-disable the local APIC if
it is called after the APIC code re-enables the local APIC.
None of existing STEC devices need UNMAP or even support it well, having
many limitations and even hanging sometimes executing those commands.
New devices that may use UNMAP going to be released under HGST name.
Add support for calling pcibios routines from the
bootloader. Implement the following routines:
pcibios-device-count count the number of instances of a devid
pcibios-read-config read pci config space
pcibios-write-config write pci config space
pcibios-find-devclass find the nth device with a given devclass
pcibios-find-device find the nth device with a given devid
pcibios-locator convert bus device function ti pcibios locator
These commands are thin wrappers over their PCI BIOS 2.1 counterparts. More
informaiton, such as it is, can be found in the standard.
Export a nunmber of pcibios.X variables into the environment to report
what the PCI IDENTIFY command returned.
Also implmenet a new command line primitive (pci-device-count), but don't
include it by default just yet, since it depends on the recently added
words and any errors here can render a system unbootable.
This is intended to allow the boot loader to do special things based
on the hardware it finds. This could be have special settings that are
optimized for the specific cards, or even loading special drivers. It
goes without saying that writing to pci config space should not be
done without a just cause and a sound mind.
