peripheral drivers can determine where in the devstat(9) list they are
inserted.
This requires recompilation of libdevstat, systat, vmstat, rpc.rstatd, and
any ports that depend on the devstat code, since the size of the devstat
structure has changed. The devstat version number has been incremented as
well to reflect the change.
This sorts devices in the devstat list in "more interesting" to "less
interesting" order. So, for instance, da devices are now more important
than floppy drives, and so will appear before floppy drives in the default
output from systat, iostat, vmstat, etc.
The order of devices is, for now, kept in a central table in devicestat.h.
If individual drivers were able to make a meaningful decision on what
priority they should be at attach time, we could consider splitting the
priority information out into the various drivers. For now, though, they
have no way of knowing that, so it's easier to put them in an easy to find
table.
Also, move the checkversion() call in vmstat(8) to a more logical place.
Thanks to Bruce and David O'Brien for suggestions, for reviewing this, and
for putting up with the long time it has taken me to commit it. Bruce did
object somewhat to the central priority table (he would rather the
priorities be distributed in each driver), so his objection is duly noted
here.

FreeBSD now will DTRT WRT DDB and DDB_UNATTENDED (!debugger_on_panic), at least

1. Nothing changes when debugger_on_panic != 0.
2. When DDB_UNATTENDED (!debugger_on_panic), if a panic occurs, the
machine will reboot. Also, if a trap occurs, the machine will
panic and reboot, unlike how it broke to DDB before. HOWEVER,
a trap inside DDB will not cause a panic, allowing full use
of DDB without having to worry about the machine being stuck
at a DDB prompt if something goes wrong during the day.

from an interrupt context and fsetown() wants to peek at curproc, call
malloc(..., M_WAITOK), and fiddle with various unprotected data structures.
The fix is to move the code that duplicates the F_SETOWN/FIOSETOWN state
of the original socket to the new socket from sonewconn() to accept1(),
since accept1() runs in the correct context. Deferring this until the
process calls accept() is harmless since the process can't do anything
useful with SIGIO on the new socket until it has the descriptor for that
socket.
One could make the case for not bothering to duplicate the
F_SETOWN/FIOSETOWN state and requiring the process to explicitly make the
fcntl() or ioctl() call on the new socket, but this would be incompatible
with the previous implementation and might break programs which rely on

the need to fit them into one page.
- Remove unused switch() cases now that the verbose debugging is gone.
I've been using an earlier version of this for a month or so.
This sped up ELF exec speed a bit for me but I found it hard to get
consistant benchmarks when I tested it last (a few weeks ago).
I'm still bothered by the page read out of order caused by the
transition from data to bss. This which requires either part filling the
transition page or clearing the remainder.
a raw partition at a nonzero offset (EINVAL should have been EXDEV;
DIOCSDINFO was broken, and DIOCWDINFO was broken because it depended
on DIOCSDINFO).
A zero offset for the raw partition should probably be enforced in
setdisklabel(), and DIOCWDINFO should probably always be handled by
first calling setdisklabel() so that writedisklabel() doesn't need to
enforce it, but this has never been done; dsioctl() has a special
check. Changes in this commit are limited to dsioctl() to preserve
bug for bug compatibility in drivers that don't use the slice code
(notably the ccd driver, which allows setting a bogus label in
DIOCWDINFO and doesn't undo the setting when writedisklabel() fails).
partition that the label ioctl is being done on just because it has
offset 0, since there is no guarantee that such a partition is large
enough to contain the label. Don't use the wrong raw partition (0
instead of RAW_PART).
This fixes problems rewriting bizarre labels (with a nonzero offset
for the 'a' partition) in newfs(8). Such labels shouldn't normally
be used, but creating them was allowed if the ioctl was done on the
raw partition, and sysinstall creates them if the root partition isn't
allocated first.
Note that allowing write access to a partition other than the one that
has been checked for write access doesn't increase security holes
significantly, since write access to any partition already allows
changing the in-core label.
This fix should be in 3.0R. Rev.1.26 of newfs/newfs.c shouldn't be
in 3.0R.
This is the bulk of the support for doing kld modules. Two linker_sets
were replaced by SYSINIT()'s. VFS's and exec handlers are self registered.
kld is now a superset of lkm. I have converted most of them, they will
follow as a seperate commit as samples.
This all still works as a static a.out kernel using LKM's.
release goes out the door. We know there's a bug in the devstat
implementation in the wd driver, but bde and msmith haven't been able to
fix it yet.
So, disable the printf to avoid confusing/worrying people.

1) The vnode pager wasn't properly tracking the file size due to
"size" being page rounded in some cases and not in others.
This sometimes resulted in corrupted files. First noticed by
Terry Lambert.
Fixed by changing the "size" pager_alloc parameter to be a 64bit
byte value (as opposed to a 32bit page index) and changing the
pagers and their callers to deal with this properly.
2) Fixed a bogus type cast in round_page() and trunc_page() that
caused some 64bit offsets and sizes to be scrambled. Removing
the cast required adding casts at a few dozen callers.
There may be problems with other bogus casts in close-by
macros. A quick check seemed to indicate that those were okay,
however.
things, like msdosfs, do not work (panic) on devices with VMIO enabled.
FFS enable VMIO on mounted devices, and nothing previously disabled it, so,
after you mounted FFS floppy, you could not mount msdosfs floppy anymore...)
This is mostly a quick before-release fix.

Drastically quieten down the verbose load progress messages. They were
more useful for debugging than anything, but are beyond a joke when loading
a few dozen modules.
Simplify the ELF extended symbol table load format. Just take the main
symbol table and the string table that corresponds. This is what we will
be getting local symbols from. (needed for the alpha stack tracebacks).
Use the (optional) full symbol tables in lookups. This means we have to
furhter distinguish between symbols that can come from the dynamic linking
table and the complete table.
The alpha boot code now needs to be adapted as ddb/db_elf.c cannot use
the simpler format.
I have not implemented loading the extended symbol tables from the syscall
interface yet, just for preloaded modules.
I am not sure about the symbol resolution. I *think* it's possible that
a local symbol can be found in preference to a global, depending on the
search sequence and dependency tree.
Formerly, the heuristic involving the interpreter path took
precedence.
Also, print a better error message if the brand is missing or not
recognized. If there is no brand at all, give the user a hint that
"brandelf" needs to be run.
Implement preloading in a fairly MI way, assuming the information is
prepared.
DDB interface helpers.. Provide some support for db_kld.c so that we
don't have to export too much detail.
Debugging and cosmetic nits left in from development..
The other half of the containing file hack so modules can associate
themselves with their "file".
but I can't think of another (relatively) easy way of getting the info
since the boot-time initialization is not done immediately after "loading".
XXX module_register() gained an extra arg. This might break the alpha
compile, if so, just add a zero to get the old behavior.
should probably be moved to i386/i386/link_machdep.c (and the same for the
alpha).
Implement "deleting" a preloaded module by destroying it's tags. This is a
hack. We cannot reuse the data, it's been destroyed by relocation,
statically initialized variables have been modified, etc. Note that to
reclaim the load space is going to be more machine-dependent work.
Implement a relocate hook for machdep.c to call so that the physical
addresses get converted to the equivalent KVM addresses.
- seperate unload for preloaded linker objects.
- Don't build a kernel object if running as an a.out kernel.
- extract the real kernel name rather than hardwiring "kernel" for kldstat.
(sysctl kern.bootfile getst the full name via bootinfo)
- use real addresses on the kernel "module" rather than fictitious ones.
- preloaded module support
- search module path for file modules.
- symbols are checked to see if they are in the right containing file
before using their indexes into string tables. This is to help ddb
since it only supplies a pointer to an opaque symbol and there is no
telling which file/object/module/whatever it came from.
- symbol_values checks that the symbol is indeed belonging to the
correct symbol and string table pairs before looking up. (since there
could be many pairs, and KLD/DDB need to find out).
- different ops for files versus preload modules - the unload mechanism
is different. (a preloaded module has to be deleted on unload since
the in-core image is tainted by relocation and variables used)
- Do not build an a.out kernel module if we're running on an elf
kernel. :-) Note that it should theoretically be possible to
mix a.out and elf KLD modules providing -mno-underscores was used
to compile it, or some other symbol conversion takes place.
- Support preload modules (even though /boot/loader doesn't yet)
- Search the module path when loading files.
check off SYSINIT entries as they are run, and when more arrive, we re-sort
and restart (skipping the already-run entries).
This can *only* be done after KMEM (and malloc) is up and running - this is
fine because KLD is the only consumer of this and it's done after that.
The nice thing about this is that the SYSINIT's within preloaded KLD modules
are executed in their natural order. It should be possible to register
devices for the probes which follow, etc. (soon.. several key things
prevent this, such as use of linker sets for things like pci devices).
help track down bugs in the devstat implementation in various drivers.
(i.e., any situation where the driver does not call the devstat routines
once and only once for each transaction initiation and completion)
Prompted by: msmith
NFS_ROOT will produce kernel that cannot mount a UFS /.
Vfs type numbers must be distinct from VFS_GENERIC (and VFS_VFSCONF, but
that has the same value and should go away).
The problem happens because NFS is the first vfs (in sys/conf order) so it
gets type number 0 and conflicts harmfully with VFS_GENERIC which is also 0.
The conflict is apparently harmless in the usual case when another vfs
gets type number 0, because nfs is the only vfs that has sysctls.
