- Implement bus_adjust_resource() methods as far as necessary and in non-PCI
bridge drivers as far as feasible without rototilling them.
- As NEW_PCIB does a layering violation by activating resources at layers
above pci(4) without previously bubbling up their allocation there, move
the assignment of bus tags and handles from the bus_alloc_resource() to
the bus_activate_resource() methods like at least the other NEW_PCIB
enabled architectures do. This is somewhat unfortunate as previously
sparc64 (ab)used resource activation to indicate whether SYS_RES_MEMORY
resources should be mapped into KVA, which is only necessary if their
going to be accessed via the pointer returned from rman_get_virtual() but
not for bus_space(9) as the later always uses physical access on sparc64.
Besides wasting KVA if we always map in SYS_RES_MEMORY resources, a driver
also may deliberately not map them in if the firmware already has done so,
possibly in a special way. So in order to still allow a driver to decide
whether a SYS_RES_MEMORY resource should be mapped into KVA we let it
indicate that by calling bus_space_map(9) with BUS_SPACE_MAP_LINEAR as
actually documented in the bus_space(9) page. This is implemented by
allocating a separate bus tag per SYS_RES_MEMORY resource and passing the
resource via the previously unused bus tag cookie so we later on can call
rman_set_virtual() in sparc64_bus_mem_map(). As a side effect this now
also allows to actually indicate that a SYS_RES_MEMORY resource should be
mapped in as cacheable and/or read-only via BUS_SPACE_MAP_CACHEABLE and
BUS_SPACE_MAP_READONLY respectively.
- Do some minor cleanup like taking advantage of rman_init_from_resource(),
factor out the common part of bus tag allocation into a newly added
sparc64_alloc_bus_tag(), hook up some missing newbus methods and replace
some homegrown versions with the generic counterparts etc.
- While at it, let apb_attach() (which can't use the generic NEW_PCIB code
as APB bridges just don't have the base and limit registers implemented)
regarding the config space registers cached in pcib_softc and the SYSCTL
reporting nodes set up.
* The AR_ISR_RAC interrupt processing method has a subtle bug in all
the MAC revisions (including pre-11n NICs) until AR9300v2.
If you're unlucky, the clear phase clears an update to one of the
secondary registers, which includes TX status.
This shows up as a "watchdog timeout" if you're doing very low levels
of TX traffic. If you're doing a lot of non-11n TX traffic, you'll
end up receiving a TX interrupt from some later traffic anyway.
But when TX'ing 11n aggregation session traffic (which -HEAD isn't yet
doing), you may find that you're only able to TX one frame (due to
BAW restrictions) and this may end up hitting this race condition.
The only solution is to not use RAC and instead use AR_ISR and the
AR_ISR_Sx registers. The bit in AR_ISR which represents the secondary
registers are not cleared; only the AR_ISR_Sx bits are. This way
any updates which occur between the read and subsequent write will
stay asserted and (correctly) trigger a subsequent interrupt.
I've tested this on the AR5416, AR9160, AR9280. I will soon test
the AR9285 and AR9287.
* The AR_ISR TX and RX bits (and all others!) are set regardless of
whether the contents of the AR_IMR register. So if RX mitigation is
enabled, RXOK is going to be set in AR_ISR and it would normally set
HAL_INT_RX.
Fix the code to not set HAL_INT_RX when RXOK is set and RX mitigation
is compiled in. That way the RX path isn't prematurely called.
I would see:
* An interrupt would come in (eg a beacon, or TX completion) where
RXOK was set but RXINTM/RXMINT wasn't;
* ath_rx_proc() be called - completing RX frames;
* RXINTM/RXMINT would then fire;
* ath_rx_proc() would then be called again but find no frames in the
queue.
This fixes the RX mitigation behaviour to not overly call ath_rx_proc().
* Start to flesh out more correct timer interrupt handling - it isn't
kite/merlin specific. It's actually based on whether autosleep support
is enabled or not.
This is sourced from my 11n TX branch and has been tested for a few weeks.
Finally, the interrupt handling change should likely be implemented
for AR5210, AR5211 and AR5212.
There are some timing concerns which I've yet to fully map out.
In any case, there's an existing software driven mitigation method
for TX interrupts and when TX'ing 11n frames, the whole frame itself
generates an interrupt rather then the subframes.
The ieee80211_swbmiss() callout is not called with the ic lock held, so it's
quite possible the scheduler will run the callout during a state change.
This patch:
* changes the swbmiss callout to be locked by the ic lock
* enforces the ic lock being held across the beacon vap functions
by grabbing it inside beacon_miss() and beacon_swmiss().
This ensures that the ic lock is held (and thus the VAP state
stays constant) during beacon miss and software miss processing.
Since the callout is removed whilst the ic lock is held, it also
ensures that the ic lock can't be called during a state change
or exhibit any race conditions seen above.
Both Edgar and Joel report that this patch fixes the crash and
doesn't introduce new issues.

Even though POSIX allows us to return simply /dev/tty as a pathname
identifying the controlling terminal of the running process, it is nicer
if this function were actually useful, by returning the actual pathname
of the controlling terminal.
Implement ctermid() by using the kern.devname sysctl to resolve the
actual name of /dev/tty. Don't use devname(3), since it may return bogus
strings like #C:0x123.
POSIX/SUSvN. The sigwait(2) syscall does return EINTR, and libc.so.7
contains the wrapper sigwait(3) which hides EINTR from callers. The
EINTR return is used by libthr to handle required cancellation point
in the sigwait(3).
To help the binaries linked against pre-libc.so.7, i.e. RELENG_6 and
earlier, to have right ABI for sigwait(3), transform EINTR return from
sigwait(2) into ERESTART.

long as we stay away from context flushes (which iommu(4) so far doesn't
take advantage of). OpenSolaris does the same.
atomic operations behave as if the were followed by a memory barrier so
there's no need to include ones in the acquire variants of atomic(9).
Removing these results a small performance improvement, specifically this
is sufficient to compensate the performance loss seen in the worldstone
benchmark seen when using SCHED_ULE instead of SCHED_4BSD.
This change is inspired by Linux even more radically doing the equivalent
thing some time ago.

Although I tried to fix this earlier by introducing HALDEBUG_G(), it
turns out there seem to be other cases where the pointer value is still
