With this kernel module and userland tool, poudriere is able to build
ports packages via the QEMU userland tools (or another emulator program)
in a different architecture chroot, e.g. TARGET=mips TARGET_ARCH=mips
I'm not connecting this to GENERIC for obvious reasons, but this should
allow the kernel module to be built by default and enable the building
of the userland tool (which automatically loads the kernel module).

1.3 of Intelб╝ Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O Architecture
Specification. The Extended Context and PASIDs from the rev. 2.2 are
not supported, but I am not aware of any released hardware which
implements them. Code does not use queued invalidation, see comments
for the reason, and does not provide interrupt remapping services.
Code implements the management of the guest address space per domain
and allows to establish and tear down arbitrary mappings, but not
partial unmapping. The superpages are created as needed, but not
promoted. Faults are recorded, fault records could be obtained
programmatically, and printed on the console.
Implement the busdma(9) using DMARs. This busdma backend avoids
bouncing and provides security against misbehaving hardware and driver
bad programming, preventing leaks and corruption of the memory by wild
DMA accesses.
By default, the implementation is compiled into amd64 GENERIC kernel
but disabled; to enable, set hw.dmar.enable=1 loader tunable. Code is
written to work on i386, but testing there was low priority, and
driver is not enabled in GENERIC. Even with the DMAR turned on,
individual devices could be directed to use the bounce busdma with the
hw.busdma.pci<domain>:<bus>:<device>:<function>.bounce=1 tunable. If
DMARs are capable of the pass-through translations, it is used,
otherwise, an identity-mapping page table is constructed.
The driver was tested on Xeon 5400/5500 chipset legacy machine,
Haswell desktop and E5 SandyBridge dual-socket boxes, with ahci(4),
ata(4), bce(4), ehci(4), mfi(4), uhci(4), xhci(4) devices. It also
works with em(4) and igb(4), but there some fixes are needed for
drivers, which are not committed yet. Intel GPUs do not work with
DMAR (yet).
Many thanks to John Baldwin, who explained me the newbus integration;
Peter Holm, who did all testing and helped me to discover and
understand several incredible bugs; and to Jim Harris for the access
to the EDS and BWG and for listening when I have to explain my

Looking pretty good; this mostly works now. New code includes:
* Read cached entropy at startup, both from files and from loader(8) preloaded entropy. Failures are soft, but announced. Untested.
* Use EVENTHANDLER to do above just before we go multiuser. Untested.
Contains:
* Refactor the hardware RNG CPU instruction sources to feed into
the software mixer. This is unfinished. The actual harvesting needs
to be sorted out. Modified by me (see below).
* Remove 'frac' parameter from random_harvest(). This was never
used and adds extra code for no good reason.
* Remove device write entropy harvesting. This provided a weak
attack vector, was not very good at bootstrapping the device. To
follow will be a replacement explicit reseed knob.
* Separate out all the RANDOM_PURE sources into separate harvest
entities. This adds some secuity in the case where more than one
is present.
* Review all the code and fix anything obviously messy or inconsistent.

sys/dev/xen/timer/timer.c:
- Register a PV timer device driver which (currently)
implements device_{identify,probe,attach} and stubs
device_detach. The detach routine requires functionality
not provided by timecounters(4). The suspend and resume
routines need additional work (due to Xen requiring that
the hypercalls be executed on the target VCPU), and aren't
needed for our purposes.
- Make sure there can only be one device instance of this
driver, and that it only registers one eventtimers(4) and
one timecounters(4) device interface. Make both interfaces
use PCPU data as needed.
- Match, with a few style cleanups & API differences, the
Xen versions of the "fetch time" functions.
- Document the magic scale_delta() better for the i386 version.
- When registering the event timer, bind a separate event
channel for the timer VIRQ to the device's event timer
interrupt handler for each active VCPU. Describe each
interrupt as "xen_et:c%d", so they can be identified per
CPU in "vmstat -i" or "show intrcnt" in KDB.
- When scheduling a timer into the hypervisor, try up to
60 times if the hypervisor rejects the time as being in
the past. In the common case, this retry shouldn't happen,
and if it does, it should only happen once. This is
because the event timer advertises a minimum period of
100usec, which is only less than the usual hypercall round
trip time about 1 out of every 100 tries. (Unlike other
similar drivers, this one actually checks whether the
hypervisor accepted the singleshot timer set hypercall.)
- Implement a RTC PV clock based on the hypervisor wallclock.

Re-structure Xen HVM support so that:
- Xen is detected and hypercalls can be performed very
early in system startup.
- Xen interrupt services are implemented using FreeBSD's native
interrupt delivery infrastructure.
- the Xen interrupt service implementation is shared between PV
and HVM guests.
- Xen interrupt handlers can optionally use a filter handler
in order to avoid the overhead of dispatch to an interrupt
thread.
- interrupt load can be distributed among all available CPUs.
- the overhead of accessing the emulated local and I/O apics
on HVM is removed for event channel port events.
- a similar optimization can eventually, and fairly easily,
be used to optimize MSI.

writing event timer drivers, for choosing best possible drivers by machine
independent code and for operating them to supply kernel with hardclock(),
statclock() and profclock() events in unified fashion on various hardware.
Infrastructure provides support for both per-CPU (independent for every CPU
core) and global timers in periodic and one-shot modes. MI management code
at this moment uses only periodic mode, but one-shot mode use planned for
later, as part of tickless kernel project.
For this moment infrastructure used on i386 and amd64 architectures. Other
archs are welcome to follow, while their current operation should not be
affected.
This patch updates existing drivers (i8254, RTC and LAPIC) for the new
order, and adds event timers support into the HPET driver. These drivers
have different capabilities:
LAPIC - per-CPU timer, supports periodic and one-shot operation, may
freeze in C3 state, calibrated on first use, so may be not exactly precise.
HPET - depending on hardware can work as per-CPU or global, supports
periodic and one-shot operation, usually provides several event timers.
i8254 - global, limited to periodic mode, because same hardware used also
as time counter.
RTC - global, supports only periodic mode, set of frequencies in Hz
limited by powers of 2.
Depending on hardware capabilities, drivers preferred in following orders,

The hardware is compliant with WDRT specification, so I originally

against it, because I couldn't find anyone to the code for me.
WDRT seems to be not very popular.
Besides, generic WDRT porbably requires a slightly different driver

- Do not map entire real mode memory (1MB). Instead, we map IVT/BDA and
ROM area separately. Most notably, ROM area is mapped as device memory
(uncacheable) as it should be. User memory is dynamically allocated and
free'ed with contigmalloc(9) and contigfree(9). Remove now redundant and
potentially dangerous x86bios_alloc.c. If this emulator ever grows to
support non-PC hardware, we may implement it with rman(9) later.

supported. We may use bus_space(9) later when the KPI is fixed.
- Replace all bzero() calls for emulated registers with more obviously named

BIOS POST code from the current VGA option ROM. Some video controllers
cannot save and restore the state properly even if it is claimed to be
supported. Usually the symptom is blank display after resuming from suspend
state. If the video mode does not match the previous mode after restoring,
we try BIOS POST and force the known good initial state. Some magic was
taken from NetBSD (and it was taken from vbetool, I believe.)
- Add a loader tunable for vgapci(4) to give a hint to dpms(4) and vesa(4)
to identify who owns the VESA BIOS. This is very useful for multi-display
adapter setup. By default, the POST video controller is automatically
probed and the tunable "hw.pci.default_vgapci_unit" is set to corresponding
vgapci unit number. You may override it from loader but it is very unlikely

This RTC is only (initially) designed to be read at startup. There's

- For CPUs that only support MCE (the machine check exception) but not MCA
(i.e. Pentium), all this does is print out the value of the machine check
registers and then panic when a machine check exception occurs.
- For CPUs that support MCA (the machine check architecture), the support is
a bit more involved.
- First, there is limited support for decoding the CPU-independent MCA
error codes in the kernel, and the kernel uses this to output a short
description of any machine check events that occur.
- When a machine check exception occurs, all of the MCx banks on the
current CPU are scanned and any events are reported to the console
before panic'ing.
- To catch events for correctable errors, a periodic timer kicks off a
task which scans the MCx banks on all CPUs. The frequency of these
checks is controlled via the "hw.mca.interval" sysctl.
- Userland can request an immediate scan of the MCx banks by writing
a non-zero value to "hw.mca.force_scan".
- If any correctable events are encountered, the appropriate details
are stored in a 'struct mca_record' (defined in <machine/mca.h>).
The "hw.mca.count" is a count of such records and each record may
be queried via the "hw.mca.records" tree by specifying the record
index (0 .. count - 1) as the next name in the MIB similar to using
PIDs with the kern.proc.* sysctls. The idea is to export machine
check events to userland for more detailed processing.
- The periodic timer and hw.mca sysctls are only present if the CPU
supports MCA.

Some time ago I started working on a library called libteken, which is
terminal emulator. It does not buffer any screen contents, but only
keeps terminal state, such as cursor position, attributes, etc. It
should implement all escape sequences that are implemented by the
cons25 terminal emulator, but also a fair amount of sequences that are
present in VT100 and xterm.
A lot of random notes, which could be of interest to users/developers:
- Even though I'm leaving the terminal type set to `cons25', users can
do experiments with placing `xterm-color' in /etc/ttys. Because we
only implement a subset of features of xterm, this may cause
artifacts. We should consider extending libteken, because in my
opinion xterm is the way to go. Some missing features:
- Keypad application mode (DECKPAM)
- Character sets (SCS)
- libteken is filled with a fair amount of assertions, but unfortunately
we cannot go into the debugger anymore if we fail them. I've done
development of this library almost entirely in userspace. In
sys/dev/syscons/teken there are two applications that can be helpful
when debugging the code:
- teken_demo: a terminal emulator that can be started from a regular
xterm that emulates a terminal using libteken. This application can
be very useful to debug any rendering issues.
- teken_stress: a stress testing application that emulates random
terminal output. libteken has literally survived multiple terabytes
of random input.
- libteken also includes support for UTF-8, but unfortunately our input
layer and font renderer don't support this. If users want to
experiment with UTF-8 support, they can enable `TEKEN_UTF8' in
teken.h. If you recompile your kernel or the teken_demo application,
you can hold some nice experiments.
- I've left PC98 the way it is right now. The PC98 platform has a custom
syscons renderer, which supports some form of localised input. Maybe
we should port PC98 to libteken by the time syscons supports UTF-8?
- I've removed the `dumb' terminal emulator. It has been broken for
years. It hasn't survived the `struct proc' -> `struct thread'
conversion.
- To prevent confusion among people that want to hack on libteken:
unlike syscons, the state machines that parse the escape sequences are
machine generated. This means that if you want to add new escape
sequences, you have to add an entry to the `sequences' file. This will
cause new entries to be added to `teken_state.h'.
- Any rendering artifacts that didn't occur prior to this commit are by
accident. They should be reported to me, so I can fix them.

registers from the correspondent CPU. cpuid data could be retrieved using
the CPUID call, and microcode updates are applied via UPDATE.
The permissions are inforced based on the pseudo-device file permissions.
RDMSR/CPUID will be allowed when the caller has read access to the device
node, while WRMSR/UPDATE will be granted only when the node is opened

DESIGN NOTES:
1. Linux permits a process to own multiple AIO queues (distinguished by
"context"), but FreeBSD creates only one single AIO queue per process.
My code maintains a request queue (STAILQ of queue(3)) per "context",
and throws all AIO requests of all contexts owned by a process into
the single FreeBSD per-process AIO queue.
When the process calls io_destroy(2), io_getevents(2), io_submit(2) and
io_cancel(2), my code can pick out requests owned by the specified context
from the single FreeBSD per-process AIO queue according to the per-context
request queues maintained by my code.
2. The request queue maintained by my code stores contrast information between
Linux IO control blocks (struct linux_iocb) and FreeBSD IO control blocks
(struct aiocb). FreeBSD IO control block actually exists in userland memory
space, required by FreeBSD native aio_XXXXXX(2).
3. It is quite troubling that the function io_getevents() of libaio-0.3.105
needs to use Linux-specific "struct aio_ring", which is a partial mirror
of context in user space. I would rather take the address of context in
kernel as the context ID, but the io_getevents() of libaio forces me to
take the address of the "ring" in user space as the context ID.
To my surprise, one comment line in the file "io_getevents.c" of
libaio-0.3.105 reads:
Ben will hate me for this

Like lnc(4), the C-bus front-end of le(4) only supports C-NET(98)S

based on the respective lnc(4) and not too different from the ISA
front-end it should be highly likely to work.

- move linprocfs from "files" and "options" to architecture specific files,
since it only makes sense to build this for those architectures, where we
also have a linuxolator
- disable the build of the linuxolator on our tier-2 architecture "Alpha":
* we don't have a linux_base port which supports Alpha and at the
same time is not outdated/obsoleted upstream/in a good condition/
currently working
* the upcomming new default linux base port is based upon Fedora
Core 3 (security support via http://www.fedoralegacy.org), which
isn't available for Alpha (like the current default linux base
port which is based upon Red Hat 8)
* nobody answered my request for testing it ~1 month ago on
current@ and alpha@ (it doesn't surprises me, see above)
* a SoC student wouldn't have to waste time on something which
nobody is willing to test
This does not remove the alpha specific MD files of the linuxolator yet.

o Add a seperate bus frontend for acpi(4) and allow ISA DMA for
it when ISA is configured in the kernel. This allows acpi(4)
attachments in non-ISA configurations, as is possible for ia64.
o Add a seperate bus frontend for pci(4) and detect known single
port parallel cards.
o Merge PC98 specific changes under pc98/cbus into the MI driver.
The changes are minor enough for conditional compilation and
in this form invites better abstraction.
o Have ppc(4) usabled on all platforms, now that ISA specifics
are untangled enough.
Major differences:
* since there is no direct map region, there is no custom uma memory
allocator to modify to include its pages in the dumps.
* Various data entries are reduced from 64 bit to 32 bit to match the
native size.
dump_add_page() and dump_drop_page() are still present in case one wants to
arrange for arbitary pages to be dumped. This is of marginal use though
because libkvm+kgdb cannot address physical memory that isn't mapped into
kvm.
enabled by default in NETSMB and smbfs.ko.
With the most of modern SMB providers requiring encryption by
default, there is little sense left in keeping the crypto part
of NETSMB optional at the build time.
This will also return smbfs.ko to its former properties users
are rather accustomed to.

If you want to use bpf_filter() instead (e. g., debugging), do:
sysctl net.bpf.jitter.enable=0
to turn it off.
Currently BIOCSETWF and bpf_mtap2() are unsupported, and bpf_mtap() is
partially supported because 1) no need, 2) avoid expensive m_copydata(9).

Oddly, the module was actually turned on on ia64 though I'm fairly certain

files after they were repo-copied to sys/dev/atkbdc. The sources of
atkbdc(4) and its children were moved to the new location in preparation
for adding an EBus front-end to atkbdc(4) for use on sparc64; i.e. in
order to not further scatter them over the whole tree which would have
been the result of adding atkbdc_ebus.c in e.g. sys/sparc64/ebus. Another
reason for the repo-copies was that some of the sources were misfiled,
e.g. sys/isa/atkbd_isa.c wasn't ISA-specific at all but for hanging
atkbd(4) off of atkbdc(4) and was renamed to atkbd_atkbdc.c accordingly.
Most of sys/isa/psm.c, i.e. expect for its PSMC PNP part, also isn't
ISA-specific.
- Separate the parts of atkbdc_isa.c which aren't actually ISA-specific
but are shareable between different atkbdc(4) bus front-ends into
atkbdc_subr.c (repo-copied from atkbdc_isa.c). While here use
bus_generic_rl_alloc_resource() and bus_generic_rl_release_resource()
respectively in atkbdc_isa.c instead of rolling own versions.
- Add sparc64 MD bits to atkbdc(4) and atkbd(4) and an EBus front-end for
atkbdc(4). PS/2 controllers and input devices are used on a couple of
Sun OEM boards and occur on either the EBus or the ISA bus. Depending on
the board it's either the only on-board mean to connect a keyboard and
mouse or an alternative to either RS232 or USB devices.
- Wrap the PSMC PNP part of psm.c in #ifdef DEV_ISA so it can be compiled
without isa(4) (e.g. for EBus-only machines). This ISA-specific part
isn't separated into its own source file, yet, as it requires more work
than was feasible for 6.0 in order to do it in a clean way. Actually
philip@ is working on a rewrite of psm(4) so a more comprehensive
clean-up and separation of hardware dependent and independent parts is
expected to happen after 6.0.

here on in, if_ndis.ko will be pre-built as a module, and can be built
into a static kernel (though it's not part of GENERIC). Drivers are
created using the new ndisgen(8) script, which uses ndiscvt(8) under
the covers, along with a few other tools. The result is a driver module
that can be kldloaded into the kernel.
A driver with foo.inf and foo.sys files will be converted into
foo_sys.ko (and foo_sys.o, for those who want/need to make static
kernels). This module contains all of the necessary info from the
.INF file and the driver binary image, converted into an ELF module.
You can kldload this module (or add it to /boot/loader.conf) to have
it loaded automatically. Any required firmware files can be bundled
into the module as well (or converted/loaded separately).
Also, add a workaround for a problem in NdisMSleep(). During system
bootstrap (cold == 1), msleep() always returns 0 without actually
sleeping. The Intel 2200BG driver uses NdisMSleep() to wait for
the NIC's firmware to come to life, and fails to load if NdisMSleep()
doesn't actually delay. As a workaround, if msleep() (and hence
ndis_thsuspend()) returns 0, use a hard DELAY() to sleep instead).
This is not really the right thing to do, but we can't really do much
else. At the very least, this makes the Intel driver happy.
There are probably other drivers that fail in this way during bootstrap.
Unfortunately, the only workaround for those is to avoid pre-loading
them and kldload them once the system is running instead.
critical_enter() and critical_exit() are now solely a mechanism for
deferring kernel preemptions. They no longer have any affect on
interrupts. This means that standalone critical sections are now very
cheap as they are simply unlocked integer increments and decrements for the
common case.
Spin mutexes now use a separate KPI implemented in MD code: spinlock_enter()
and spinlock_exit(). This KPI is responsible for providing whatever MD
guarantees are needed to ensure that a thread holding a spin lock won't
be preempted by any other code that will try to lock the same lock. For
now all archs continue to block interrupts in a "spinlock section" as they
did formerly in all critical sections. Note that I've also taken this
opportunity to push a few things into MD code rather than MI. For example,
critical_fork_exit() no longer exists. Instead, MD code ensures that new
threads have the correct state when they are created. Also, we no longer
try to fixup the idlethreads for APs in MI code. Instead, each arch sets
the initial curthread and adjusts the state of the idle thread it borrows
in order to perform the initial context switch.
This change is largely a big NOP, but the cleaner separation it provides
will allow for more efficient alternative locking schemes in other parts
of the kernel (bare critical sections rather than per-CPU spin mutexes
for per-CPU data for example).

when we create a PDO, the driver_object associated with it is that
of the parent driver, not the driver we're trying to attach. For
example, if we attach a PCI device, the PDO we pass to the NdisAddDevice()
function should contain a pointer to fake_pci_driver, not to the NDIS
driver itself. For PCI or PCMCIA devices this doesn't matter because
the child never needs to talk to the parent bus driver, but for USB,
the child needs to be able to send IRPs to the parent USB bus driver, and
for that to work the parent USB bus driver has to be hung off the PDO.
This involves modifying windrv_lookup() so that we can search for
bus drivers by name, if necessary. Our fake bus drivers attach themselves
as "PCI Bus," "PCCARD Bus" and "USB Bus," so we can search for them
using those names.
The individual attachment stubs now create and attach PDOs to the
parent bus drivers instead of hanging them off the NDIS driver's
object, and in if_ndis.c, we now search for the correct driver
object depending on the bus type, and use that to find the correct PDO.
With this fix, I can get my sample USB ethernet driver to deliver
an IRP to my fake parent USB bus driver's dispatch routines.
- Add stub modules for USB support: subr_usbd.c, usbd_var.h and
if_ndis_usb.c. The subr_usbd.c module is hooked up the build
but currently doesn't do very much. It provides the stub USB
parent driver object and a dispatch routine for
IRM_MJ_INTERNAL_DEVICE_CONTROL. The only exported function at
the moment is USBD_GetUSBDIVersion(). The if_ndis_usb.c stub
compiles, but is not hooked up to the build yet. I'm putting
these here so I can keep them under source code control as I
flesh them out.
