The removal of the sparc64 support in February 2020 obsoleted the
VTOC8 partitioning scheme as no other FreeBSD platform makes use
of it. Moreover, the code is bitrotting as nothing defines e. g.
LOADER_VTOC8_SUPPORT any more and, thus, should go now, too. With
this change, the following commits are reverted as far as VTOC8
is concerned and parts haven't already previously been deleted
along with prior sparc64 removals:
094fcb157da7d366e958ba8d50d08b
The alignment example d9711c28ef
added to the VTOC8 section of gpart.8 is folded into the MBR one.
This should finally conclude the deorbit of sparc64-specific bits.

The "canonical" EBR partition names like `ada0s4+00002081` are not
particularly meaningful. The "compat" aliases share the same namespace
as the parent MBR, resulting in user-friendly names like `ada0s6`.
These names are consistent with the way Linux names EBR partitions.
We previously provided a sysctl kern.features.geom_part_ebr_compat
(enabled by default) to control the "compat" names. Remove the sysctl
and always create the aliases.

Replace MAXPHYS by runtime variable maxphys. It is initialized from

Make b_pages[] array in struct buf flexible. Size b_pages[] for buffer
cache buffers exactly to atop(maxbcachebuf) (currently it is sized to
atop(MAXPHYS)), and b_pages[] for pbufs is sized to atop(maxphys) + 1.
The +1 for pbufs allow several pbuf consumers, among them vmapbuf(),
to use unaligned buffers still sized to maxphys, esp. when such
buffers come from userspace (*). Overall, we save significant amount
of otherwise wasted memory in b_pages[] for buffer cache buffers,
while bumping MAXPHYS to desired high value.
Eliminate all direct uses of the MAXPHYS constant in kernel and driver
sources, except a place which initialize maxphys. Some random (and
arguably weird) uses of MAXPHYS, e.g. in linuxolator, are converted
straight. Some drivers, which use MAXPHYS to size embeded structures,
get private MAXPHYS-like constant; their convertion is out of scope
for this work.

This is followup to r365477.
If pre-formatted device has GPT and a partition covering
last available LBAs and the device is attached using
a bridge reducing amount of LBAs, then it could be not enough
forcing GEOM to use primary GPT. Also, we should make it possible
to recover GPT and this requires either deleting or resizing the partition.
This change enables "gpart delete" and "gpart resize" commands
on corrupted GPT with following "gpart recover".
It still does not allow modifying corrupted GPT without
preliminary setting sysctl kern.geom.part.check_integrity=0
For example:
# gpart show da0
=> 34 3906963389 da0 GPT (1.8T) [CORRUPT]

There are multiple USB/SATA bridges on the market that unconditionally
cut some LBAs off connected media. This could be a problem
for pre-partitioned drives so GEOM complains and does not create
devices in /dev for slices/partitions preventing access to existing data.
We have kern.geom.part.check_integrity that allows us to correct
partitioning if changed from default 1 to 0 but it works for MBR only.
If backup copy of GPT is unavailable due to decreases number of LBAs,
kernel still does not give access to partitions and prints to dmesg:
GEOM: md0: corrupt or invalid GPT detected.
GEOM: md0: GPT rejected -- may not be recoverable.
This change makes it work for GPT too, so it created partitions in /dev
and prints to dmesg this instead:
GEOM: md0: the secondary GPT table is corrupt or invalid.
GEOM: md0: using the primary only -- recovery suggested.
Then "gpart recover" re-created backup copy of GPT
and allows further manipulations with partitions.
This change is no-op for default configuration having

Take advantage of Warner's nice new real GEOM aliasing system and use it for
aliased partition names that actually work.
Our canonical EBR partition name is the weird, not-default-on-x86-prior-to-
this-revision "da1p4+00001234." However, if compatibility mode (tunable
kern.geom.part.ebr.compat_aliases) is enabled (1, default), we continue to
provide the alias names like "da1p5" in addition to the weird canonical
names.
Naming partition providers was just one aspect of the COMPAT knob; in
addition it limited mutability, in part because it did not preserve existing
EBR header content aside from that of LBA 0. This change saves the EBR
header for LBA 0, as well as for every EBR partition encountered. That way,
when we write out the EBR partition table on modification, we can restore
any bootloader or other metadata in both LBA0 (the first data-containing EBR
may start after 0) as well as every logical EBR we read from the disk, and
only update the geometry metadata and linked list pointers that describe the
actual partitioning.
(This change does not add support for the 'bootcode' verb to EBR.)

The alias needs to be part of the provider instead of the geom to work
properly. To bind the DEV geom, we need to look at the provider's names and
aliases and create the dev entries from there. If this lives in the GEOM, then
it won't propigate down the tree properly. Remove it from geom, add it provider.
Update geli, gmountver, gnop, gpart, and guzip to use it, which handles the bulk
of the uses in FreeBSD. I think this is all the providers that create a new name
based on their parent's name.

GEOM is supposed to be topology-agnostic, but the GPT and BSD partition code
has arbitrary restrictions on nesting that are annoying in cases such as
running VMs on raw partitions (since the VM's partitioning scheme is not
visible to the host).
This patch adds sysctls to disable the restrictions except in the case of
BSD label (and similar) partitions with offset 0 (where we need to avoid
recursively recognizing the label).

In revision 254095, gpt_entries is not set to match the on-disk
hdr_entries, but rather is computed based on available space.
There are 2 problems with this:
1. The GPT backend respects hdr_entries and only reads and writes
that number of partition entries. On top of that, CRC32 is
computed over the table that has hdr_entries elements. When
the common code works on what is possibly a larger number, the
behaviour becomes inconsistent and problematic. In particular,
it would be possible to add a new partition that on a reboot
isn't there anymore.
2. The calculation of gpt_entries is based on flawed assumptions.
The GPT specification does not dictate that sectors are layed
out in a particular way that the available space can be
determined by looking at LBAs. In practice, implementations
do the same thing, because there's no reason to do it any
other way. Still, GPT allows certain freedoms that can be
exploited in some form or shape if the need arises.

GEOM ELI may double ask the password during boot. Once at loader time, and
once at init time.
This happens due a module loading bug. By default GEOM ELI caches the
password in the kernel, but without the MODULE_VERSION annotation, the
kernel loads over the kernel module, even if the GEOM ELI was compiled into
the kernel. In this case, the newly loaded module
purges/invalidates/overwrites the GEOM ELI's password cache, which causes
the double asking.
