allocating MAXCPU VHPTs up-front. This allows us to max-out MAXCPU
without memory waste -- MAXCPU is now 32 for SMP kernels.
This change also eliminates the VHPT scaling based in the total
memory in the system. It's the workload that determines the best size
of the VHPT. The workload can be affected by the amount of memory,
but not necessarily. For example, there's no performance difference
between VHPT sizes of 256KB, 512KB and 1MB when building the LINT
kernel. This was observed with a system that has 8GB of memory.
By default the kernel will allocate a 1MB VHPT. The user can tune the
system with the "machdep.vhpt.log2size" tunable.
The ulog_login_pseudo(3) and ulog_logout_pseudo(3) interfaces provide a
functionality identical to what libutempter has to offer. Just transform
libutempter's calls into the before mentioned functions.
libutempter doesn't work with utmpx, so instead of fixing I thought the
easiest way would be to integrate this functionality. libutempter is
used by applications like xterm and the KDE libraries, so if I ever
change the underlying file format, these applications will keep working
automatically.
Also increase __FreeBSD_version to indicate the addition (as well as the
import of libulog).
Introduce ATA_CAM kernel option, turning ata(4) controller drivers into
cam(4) interface modules. When enabled, this options deprecates all ata(4)
peripheral drivers (ad, acd, ...) and interfaces and allows cam(4) drivers
(ada, cd, ...) and interfaces to be natively used instead.
As side effect of this, ata(4) mode setting code was completely rewritten
to make controller API more strict and permit above change. While doing
this, SATA revision was separated from PATA mode. It allows DMA-incapable
SATA devices to operate and makes hw.ata.atapi_dma tunable work again.
Also allow ata(4) controller drivers (except some specific or broken ones)
to handle larger data transfers. Previous constraint of 64K was artificial
and is not really required by PCI ATA BM specification or hardware.

calling scrub when pool is in a degraded state. It will try to taste ZVOLs,
which will lead to deadlock, as ZVOL will try to acquire the same locks as
replace/scrub is holding already.
We can't simply skip provider based on their GEOM class, because ZVOL can have
providers build on top of it and we need to skip those as well.
We do it by asking for ZFS::iszvol attribute. Any ZVOL-based provider will give
us positive answer and we have to skip those providers.
This way we remove possibility to create ZFS pools on top of ZVOLs, but it is
not very useful anyway.
I believe deadlock is still possible in some very complex situations like when
we have MD provider on top of UFS file on top of ZVOL. When we try to replace
dead component in the pool mentioned ZVOL is based on, there might be a
deadlock when ZFS will try to taste MD provider. There is no easy way to detect
that, but it isn't very common.

single outstanding DMA read operation. Most controllers targeted to
client with PCIe bus interface(e.g. BCM5761) may have this
limitation. All controllers for servers does not have this
limitation.
Collapsing mbuf chains to reduce number of memory reads before
transmitting was most effective way to workaround this. I got about
940Mbps from 850Mbps with mbuf collapsing on BCM5761. However it
takes a lot of CPU cycles to collapse mbuf chains so add tunable to
control the number of allowed TX buffers before collapsing. The
default value is 0 which effectively disables the forced collapsing.
For most cases 2 would yield best performance(about 930Mbps)
without much sacrificing CPU cycles.
Note the collapsing is only activated when the controller is on
PCIe bus and the frame does not need TSO operation. TSO does not
seem to suffer from the hardware limitation because the payload
size is much bigger than normal IP datagram.
Thanks to davidch@ who told me the limitation of client controllers
and actually gave possible workarounds to mitigate the limitation.

- Instead of measuring last request execution time for each drive and
choosing one with smallest time, use averaged number of requests, running
on each drive. This information is more accurate and timely. It allows to
distribute load between drives in more even and predictable way.
- For each drive track offset of the last submitted request. If new request
offset matches previous one or close for some drive, prefer that drive.
It allows to significantly speedup simultaneous sequential reads.
