sys/dev/xen/blkfront/block.h:
Extend the Xen blkif API: Negotiable request size and number of
requests.
This change extends the information recorded in the XenStore
allowing block front/back devices to negotiate for optimal I/O
parameters. This has been achieved without sacrificing backward
compatibility with drivers that are unaware of these protocol
enhancements. The extensions center around the connection protocol
which now includes these additions:
o The back-end device publishes its maximum supported values for,
request I/O size, the number of page segments that can be
associated with a request, the maximum number of requests that
can be concurrently active, and the maximum number of pages that
can be in the shared request ring. These values are published
before the back-end enters the XenbusStateInitWait state.
o The front-end waits for the back-end to enter either the InitWait
or Initialize state. At this point, the front end limits it's
own capabilities to the lesser of the values it finds published
by the backend, it's own maximums, or, should any back-end data
be missing in the store, the values supported by the original
protocol. It then initializes it's internal data structures
including allocation of the shared ring, publishes its maximum
capabilities to the XenStore and transitions to the Initialized
state.
o The back-end waits for the front-end to enter the Initalized
state. At this point, the back end limits it's own capabilities
to the lesser of the values it finds published by the frontend,
it's own maximums, or, should any front-end data be missing in
the store, the values supported by the original protocol. It
then initializes it's internal data structures, attaches to the
shared ring and transitions to the Connected state.
o The front-end waits for the back-end to enter the Connnected
state, transitions itself to the connected state, and can
commence I/O.
Although an updated front-end driver must be aware of the back-end's
InitWait state, the back-end has been coded such that it can
tolerate a front-end that skips this step and transitions directly
to the Initialized state without waiting for the back-end.
sys/xen/interface/io/blkif.h:
o Increase BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST to 255. This is
the maximum number possible without changing the blkif
request header structure (nr_segs is a uint8_t).
o Add two new constants:
BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_HEADER_BLOCK, and
BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_SEGMENT_BLOCK. These respectively
indicate the number of segments that can fit in the first
ring-buffer entry of a request, and for each subsequent
(sg element only) ring-buffer entry associated with the
"header" ring-buffer entry of the request.
o Add the blkif_request_segment_t typedef for segment
elements.
o Add the BLKRING_GET_SG_REQUEST() macro which wraps the
RING_GET_REQUEST() macro and returns a properly cast
pointer to an array of blkif_request_segment_ts.
o Add the BLKIF_SEGS_TO_BLOCKS() macro which calculates the
number of ring entries that will be consumed by a blkif
request with the given number of segments.
sys/xen/blkif.h:
o Update for changes in interface/io/blkif.h macros.
o Update the BLKIF_MAX_RING_REQUESTS() macro to take the
ring size as an argument to allow this calculation on
multi-page rings.
o Add a companion macro to BLKIF_MAX_RING_REQUESTS(),
BLKIF_RING_PAGES(). This macro determines the number of
ring pages required in order to support a ring with the
supplied number of request blocks.
sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c:
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/block.h:
o Negotiate with the other-end with the following limits:
Reqeust Size: MAXPHYS
Max Segments: (MAXPHYS/PAGE_SIZE) + 1
Max Requests: 256
Max Ring Pages: Sufficient to support Max Requests with
Max Segments.
o Dynamically allocate request pools and segemnts-per-request.
o Update ring allocation/attachment code to support a
multi-page shared ring.
o Update routines that access the shared ring to handle
multi-block requests.
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
o Track blkfront allocations in a blkfront driver specific
malloc pool.
o Strip out XenStore transaction retry logic in the
connection code. Transactions only need to be used when
the update to multiple XenStore nodes must be atomic.
That is not the case here.
o Fully disable blkif_resume() until it can be fixed
properly (it didn't work before this change).
o Destroy bus-dma objects during device instance tear-down.
o Properly handle backend devices with powef-of-2 sector
sizes larger than 512b.
sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c:
Advertise support for and implement the BLKIF_OP_WRITE_BARRIER
and BLKIF_OP_FLUSH_DISKCACHE blkif opcodes using BIO_FLUSH and
the BIO_ORDERED attribute of bios.
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/block.h:
Fix various bugs in blkfront.
o gnttab_alloc_grant_references() returns 0 for success and
non-zero for failure. The check for < 0 is a leftover
Linuxism.
o When we negotiate with blkback and have to reduce some of our
capabilities, print out the original and reduced capability before
changing the local capability. So the user now gets the correct
information.
o Fix blkif_restart_queue_callback() formatting. Make sure we hold
the mutex in that function before calling xb_startio().
o Fix a couple of KASSERT()s.
o Fix a check in the xb_remove_* macro to be a little more specific.
sys/xen/gnttab.h:
sys/xen/gnttab.c:
Define GNTTAB_LIST_END publicly as GRANT_REF_INVALID.
sys/dev/xen/netfront/netfront.c:
Use GRANT_REF_INVALID instead of driver private definitions of the
same constant.
sys/xen/gnttab.h:
sys/xen/gnttab.c:
Add the gnttab_end_foreign_access_references() API.
This API allows a client to batch the release of an array of grant
references, instead of coding a private for loop. The implementation
takes advantage of this batching to reduce lock overhead to one
acquisition and release per-batch instead of per-freed grant reference.
While here, reduce the duration the gnttab_list_lock is held during
gnttab_free_grant_references() operations. The search to find the
tail of the incoming free list does not rely on global state and so
can be performed without holding the lock.
sys/dev/xen/xenpci/evtchn.c:
sys/dev/xen/evtchn/evtchn.c:
sys/xen/xen_intr.h:
o Implement the bind_interdomain_evtchn_to_irqhandler API for HVM mode.
This allows an HVM domain to serve back end devices to other domains.
This API is already implemented for PV mode.
o Synchronize the API between HVM and PV.
sys/dev/xen/xenpci/xenpci.c:
o Scan the full region of CPUID space in which the Xen VMM interface
may be implemented. On systems using SuSE as a Dom0 where the
Viridian API is also exported, the VMM interface is above the region
we used to search.
o Pass through bus_alloc_resource() calls so that XenBus drivers
attaching on an HVM system can allocate unused physical address
space from the nexus. The block back driver makes use of this
facility.
sys/i386/xen/xen_machdep.c:
Use the correct type for accessing the statically mapped xenstore
metadata.
sys/xen/interface/hvm/params.h:
sys/xen/xenstore/xenstore.c:
Move hvm_get_parameter() to the correct global header file instead
of as a private method to the XenStore.
sys/xen/interface/io/protocols.h:
Sync with vendor.
sys/xeninterface/io/ring.h:
Add macro for calculating the number of ring pages needed for an N
deep ring.
To avoid duplication within the macros, create and use the new
__RING_HEADER_SIZE() macro. This macro calculates the size of the
ring book keeping struct (producer/consumer indexes, etc.) that
resides at the head of the ring.
Add the __RING_PAGES() macro which calculates the number of shared
ring pages required to support a ring with the given number of
requests.
These APIs are used to support the multi-page ring version of the
Xen block API.
sys/xeninterface/io/xenbus.h:
Add Comments.
sys/xen/xenbus/...
o Refactor the FreeBSD XenBus support code to allow for both front and
backend device attachments.
o Make use of new config_intr_hook capabilities to allow front and back
devices to be probed/attached in parallel.
o Fix bugs in probe/attach state machine that could cause the system to
hang when confronted with a failure either in the local domain or in
a remote domain to which one of our driver instances is attaching.
o Publish all required state to the XenStore on device detach and
failure. The majority of the missing functionality was for serving
as a back end since the typical "hot-plug" scripts in Dom0 don't
handle the case of cleaning up for a "service domain" that is not
itself.
o Add dynamic sysctl nodes exposing the generic ivars of
XenBus devices.
o Add doxygen style comments to the majority of the code.
o Cleanup types, formatting, etc.

These are only available if the kernel option BCE_DEBUG is enabled.
The nvram_write sysctl also requires the kernel option
BCE_NVRAM_WRITE_SUPPORT to be enabled. These are to be used at your
own caution. Since the MAC addresses are stored in the NVRAM, if you
dump one NIC and restore it on another NIC the destination NIC's
MAC addresses will not be preserved. A tool can be made using these
sysctl's to manage the on-chip firmware.

Bring in a driver for the LSI Logic MPT2 6Gb SAS controllers.
This driver supports basic I/O, and works with SAS and SATA drives and

Basic error recovery works (i.e. timeouts and aborts) as well.
Integrated RAID isn't supported yet, and there are some known bugs.
So this isn't ready for production use, but is certainly ready for
testing and additional development. For the moment, new commits to this
driver should go into the FreeBSD Perforce repository first
(//depot/projects/mps/...) and then get merged into -current once
they've been vetted.
This has only been added to the amd64 GENERIC, since that is the only

migrate existing reset functions into platform modules.
- Modify the OF_reboot() routine to submit the request by hand to avoid
the IPIs involved in the regular openfirmware() routine. This fixes
reboot from KDB on SMP machines.
- Move non-KDB reset and poweroff functions on the Powermac platform
into the relevant power control drivers (cuda, pmu, smu), instead of
using them through the Open Firmware backdoor.
- Rename platform_chrp to platform_powermac since it has become
increasingly Powermac specific. When we gain support for IBM systems,

different malloc types into hash classes, so that any buffer overruns
or use-after-free will usually only affect memory from malloc types in
that hash class. This is purely a debugging tool; by varying the hash
function and tracking which hash class was corrupted, the intersection
of the hash classes from each instance will point to a single malloc
type that is being misused. At this point inspection or memguard(9)
