non-zero sector size. Such a device would be a virtual disk of zero
bytes; clearly not useful, and not something we should try to attach.
As a fortuitous side effect, checking that these values are non-zero
here results in them not *becoming* zero later on the function. This
odd behaviour began with r309124 (clang 3.9.0) but is challenging to
debug; making any changes to this function whatsoever seems to affect
the llvm optimizer behaviour enough to make the unexpected zeroing of
the sector_size variable cease.

A couple of mostly cosmetic fixes for the final initialization of netfront:
- Switch to "connected" state before starting to kick the rings.
- Correctly use "rxq" in the initialization loop (previously rxq was not

The current error path in case of failure during attach/initialization is
not correct and leaves blkback in a stuck state. This is due to blkback
waiting for blkfront to switch to state XenbusStateClosed, but if blkfront
never attached (because the guest is not even started) it cannot possibly
make it to that state.
Instead just wait for the frontend to be in a state different than
XenbusStateConnected in order to proceed with the shutdown. Also, it is
wrong to call xbb_detach directly because it destroys the lock which can
still be used by xbb_frontend_changed.

Hotplug scripts are needed in order to use fancy disk configurations in xl,
like iSCSI disks. The job of hotplug scripts is to locally attach the disk
and present it to blkback as a block device or a regular file.
This change introduces a new xenstore node in the blkback hierarchy, called
"physical-device-path". This is a straigh replacement for the "params" node,
which was used before.
Hotplug scripts will need to read the "params" node, perform whatever
actions are necessary and then write the "physical-device-path" node. The
hotplug script is also in charge of detaching the disk once the domain has
been shutdown.

This is based on Linux commit 1f3c2eba1e2d866ef99bb9b10ade4096e3d7607c from
David Vrabel:
A full Rx ring only requires 1 MiB of memory. This is not enough memory
that it is useful to dynamically scale the number of Rx requests in the ring
based on traffic rates, because:
a) Even the full 1 MiB is a tiny fraction of a typically modern Linux
VM (for example, the AWS micro instance still has 1 GiB of memory).
b) Netfront would have used up to 1 MiB already even with moderate
data rates (there was no adjustment of target based on memory
pressure).
c) Small VMs are going to typically have one VCPU and hence only one
queue.
Keeping the ring full of Rx requests handles bursty traffic better than
trying to converge on an optimal number of requests to keep filled.

Currently, Application Processors (non-boot CPUs) are started by
MD code at SI_SUB_CPU, but they are kept waiting in a "pen" until
SI_SUB_SMP at which point they are released to run kernel threads.
SI_SUB_SMP is one of the last SYSINIT levels, so APs don't enter
the scheduler and start running threads until fairly late in the
boot.
This change moves SI_SUB_SMP up to just before software interrupt
threads are created allowing the APs to start executing kernel
threads much sooner (before any devices are probed). This allows
several initialization routines that need to perform initialization
on all CPUs to now perform that initialization in one step rather
than having to defer the AP initialization to a second SYSINIT run
at SI_SUB_SMP. It also permits all CPUs to be available for
handling interrupts before any devices are probed.
This last feature fixes a problem on with interrupt vector exhaustion.
Specifically, in the old model all device interrupts were routed
onto the boot CPU during boot. Later after the APs were released at
SI_SUB_SMP, interrupts were redistributed across all CPUs.
However, several drivers for multiqueue hardware allocate N interrupts
per CPU in the system. In a system with many CPUs, just a few drivers
doing this could exhaust the available pool of interrupt vectors on
the boot CPU as each driver was allocating N * mp_ncpu vectors on the
boot CPU. Now, drivers will allocate interrupts on their desired CPUs
during boot meaning that only N interrupts are allocated from the boot
CPU instead of N * mp_ncpu.
Some other bits of code can also be simplified as smp_started is
now true much earlier and will now always be true for these bits of
code. This removes the need to treat the single-CPU boot environment
as a special case.
As a transition aid, the new behavior is available under a new kernel
option (EARLY_AP_STARTUP). This will allow the option to be turned off
if need be during initial testing. I plan to enable this on x86 by
default in a followup commit in the next few days and to have all
platforms moved over before 11.0. Once the transition is complete,
the option will be removed along with the !EARLY_AP_STARTUP code.
These changes have only been tested on x86. Other platform maintainers
are encouraged to port their architectures over as well. The main
things to check for are any uses of smp_started in MD code that can be
simplified and SI_SUB_SMP SYSINITs in MD code that can be removed in
the EARLY_AP_STARTUP case (e.g. the interrupt shuffling).

Two new functions are provided, bit_ffs_at() and bit_ffc_at(), which allow
for efficient searching of set or cleared bits starting from any bit offset
within the bit string.
Performance is improved by operating on longs instead of bytes and using
ffsl() for searches within a long. ffsl() is a compiler builtin in both
clang and gcc for most architectures, converting what was a brute force
while loop search into a couple of instructions.
All of the bitstring(3) API continues to be contained in the header file.
Some of the functions are large enough that perhaps they should be uninlined
and moved to a library, but that is beyond the scope of this commit.

On slow platforms with unreliable TSC, such as QEMU emulated machines,
it is possible for the FreeBSD kernel to request the next event in the
past. In that case, in the current implementation of
xentimer_vcpu_start_timer, we simply return -ETIME. To be precise Xen
returns -ETIME and we pass it on. As a consequence we need to loop
around to function to make sure that the timer is properly set.
Instead it is better to always ask the hypervisor for a timer event,
even if the timeout is past. To do that, remove the VCPU_SSHOTTMR_future
flag.

Previously, the ACPI PCI bus driver did a single pass over the devices in
the namespace that were a child of a given PCI bus to associate the
PCI bus-enumerated device_t devices with the corresponding ACPI handles.
However, this meant that handles were only established at runtime for devices
found during the initial PCI bus scan.
PCI_IOV adds devices that show up after the initial PCI bus scan, and coming
changes to add a bus rescan can also add devices after the initial scan.
This change adds a pci_child_added() callback to the ACPI PCI bus that walks
the namespace to find the ACPI handle for each device that is added. Using
a callback means that the handle is correctly set for any device no matter
how it is added (initial scan, IOV, or a bus rescan).

The benefit over refcounts stored in separate slabs is that now refcounts

For EXT_EXTREF mbufs the zone_ext_refcnt is no longer needed, and m_extadd()

The current Xen console driver is crashing very quickly when using it on
an ARM guest. This is because the console lock is recursive and it may
lead to recursion on the tty lock and/or corrupt the ring pointer.
Furthermore, the console lock is not always taken where it should be and has
to be released too early because of the way the console has been designed.
Over the years, code has been modified to support various new features but
the driver has not been reworked.
This new driver has been rewritten with the idea of only having a small set
of specific function to write either via the shared ring or the hypercall
interface.
Note that HVM support has been left aside for now because it requires
additional features which are not yet supported. A follow-up patch will be
sent with HVM guest support.
List of items that may be good to have but not mandatory:
- Avoid to flush for each character written when using the tty
- Support multiple consoles

the blkfront driver to perform I/Os of up to 2 MB, subject to support from
the blkback to which it is connected and the initiation of such large I/Os
by the rest of the kernel. In practice, the I/O size is increased from 40 kB
to 128 kB.
The changes to xen/interface/io/blkif.h consist merely of merging updates
from the upstream Xen repository.
In dev/xen/blkfront/block.h we add some convenience macros and structure
fields used for indirect-page I/Os: The device records its negotiated limit
on the number of indirect pages used, while each I/O command structure gains
permanently allocated page(s) for indirect page references and the Xen grant
references for those pages.
In dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c we now check in xbd_queue_cb whether a request
is small enough to handle without an indirection page, and either follow the
previous behaviour or use new code for issuing an indirect segment I/O. In
xbd_connect we read the size of indirect segment I/Os supported by the backend
and select the maximum size we will use; then allocate the pages and Xen grant
references for each I/O command structure. In xbd_free those grants and pages
are released.
A new loader tunable, hw.xbd.xbd_enable_indirect, can be set to 0 in order to
disable this functionality; it works by pretending that the backend does not
support this feature. Some backends exhibit a loss of performance with large
I/Os, so users may wish to test with and without this functionality enabled.

These were all left behind from the pre-r284296 support for a "segment
block" extension.
The FreeBSD extension adds a new request type, called blkif_segment_block
which has a size of 112bytes for both i386 and amd64. This is fine on
amd64, since requests have a size of 112B there also. But this is not true
for i386, where requests have a size of 108B. So on i386 we basically
overrun the ring slot when queuing a request of type blkif_segment_block_t,
which is very bad.
Remove this extension (including a cleanup of the public blkif.h header
file) from blkfront and blkback.

In order to map memory from other domains when running on Xen FreeBSD uses
unused physical memory regions. Until now this memory has been allocated
using bus_alloc_resource, but this is not completely safe as we can end up
using unreclaimed MMIO or ACPI regions.
Fix this by introducing a new newbus method that can be used by Xen drivers
to request for unused memory regions. On amd64 we make sure this memory
comes from regions above 4GB in order to prevent clashes with MMIO/ACPI
regions. On i386 there's nothing we can do, so just fall back to the
previous mechanism.

Fix a problem where the blockback driver could run out of requests,
despite the fact that we allocate enough request and reqlist
structures to satisfy the maximum possible number of requests.
The problem was that we were sending responses back to the other
end (blockfront) before freeing resources. The Citrix Windows
driver is pretty agressive about queueing, and would queue more I/O
to us immediately after we sent responses to it. We would run into
a resource shortage and stall out I/O until we freed resources.
It isn't clear whether the request shortage condition was an
indirect cause of the I/O hangs we've been seeing between Windows
with the Citrix PV drivers and FreeBSD's blockback, but the above
problem is certainly a bug.
