90ce51106e Make "-S" a default option for mountd.
After a discussion on freebsd-fs@ there seemed to be a consensus that
the "-S" option for mountd should become the default.
Since the only known issue w.r.t. using "-S" was fixed by r299201,
this commit adds "-S" to the default mountd_flags.

7f5ddefe05 Add a savecore_enable variable support for the savecore rc script
By default set to 'YES' so it does not change the current behaviour for users,
this variable allows to decide to not extract crach dumps from the dump
device at boot time by setting it to "NO" in rc.conf.

c501d73c7e Convert casperd(8) daemon to the libcasper.
After calling the cap_init(3) function Casper will fork from it's original
process, using pdfork(2). Forking from a process has a lot of advantages:
1. We have the same cwd as the original process.
2. The same uid, gid and groups.
3. The same MAC labels.
4. The same descriptor table.
5. The same routing table.
6. The same umask.
7. The same cpuset(1).
From now services are also in form of libraries.
We also removed libcapsicum at all and converts existing program using Casper
to new architecture.

3bead71e95 - Add a global option where we can protect processes when swap space
is exhausted.

How to use:

Basically we need to add on rc.conf an another option like:

    If we want to protect only the main processes.
    syslogd_oomprotect="YES"

    If we want to protect all future children of the specified processes.
    syslogd_oomprotect="ALL"

0ba5cf0e44 Add new rc.conf parameter "jail_reverse_stop"
When a user defines "jail_list" in rc.conf the jails are started in the
order defined. Currently the jails are not are stopped in reverse order
which may break dependencies between jails/services and prevent a clean
shutdown. The new parameter "jail_reverse_stop" will shutdown jails in
"jail_list" in reverse order when set to "YES".

Please note that this does not affect manual invocation of the jail rc
script. If a user runs the command

  # service jail stop jail1 jail2 jail3

the jails will be stopped in exactly the order specified regardless of
jail_reverse_stop being defined in rc.conf.

b5bdbd0461 Add support for automatic leap-second file updates.
The working copy of leapfile resides in /var/dbntpd.leap-seconds.list.
/etc/ntp/leap-seconds (periodically updated from ftp://time.nist.gov/pub/

automatic leapfile updates be disabled (default).

Automatic leapfile updates are fetched from $ntp_leapfile_sources,
defaulting to https://www.ietf.org/timezones/data/leap-seconds.list,
within $ntp_leapfile_expiry_days (default 30 days) from leap-seconds
file expiry. Automatic updates can be enabled by setting
$daily_ntpd_leapfile_enable="YES" in periodic.conf. To avoid congesting
the ntp leapfile source the automatic update randomized by default but
can be disabled through daily_ntpd_avoid_congestion="NO" in
periodic.conf.

630c9dba7a Enhance rc.d/netwait script to wait for late-attaching interfaces such as
USB NICs.

USB network hardware may not be enumerated and available when the rc.d
networking scripts run. Eventually the USB attachment completes and devd
events cause the network initialization to happen, but by then other rc.d
scripts have already failed, because services which depend on NETWORKING
(such as mountcritremote) may end up running before the network is actually
ready.

There is an existing netwait script, but because it is dependent on
NETWORKING it runs too late to prevent failure of some other rc
scripts. This change flips the order so that NETWORKING depends on netwait,
and netwait now depends on devd and routing (the former is needed to make
interfaces appear, and the latter is needed to run the ping tests in
netwait).

The netwait script used to be oriented primarily towards "as soon as any
host is reachable the network is fully functional", so you gave it a list of
IPs to try and you could optionally name an interface and it would wait for
carrier on that interface. That functionality still works the same, but now
you can provide a list of interfaces to wait for and it waits until each one
of them is available. The ping logic still completes as soon as the first IP
on the list responds.

These changes were submitted by Brenden Molloy <brendan+freebsd@bbqsrc.net>
in PR 205186, and lightly modified by me to allow a list of interfaces
instead of just one.

709c1a78cf Drop the default for performance_cx_lowest (ie, what to use when AC is connected) to ACPI C2.
ACPI C3 ends up doing a lot more work before entering sleep, some of which
requires grabbing a global ACPI hardware serialising mutex.

Because of this, the more CPU cores you have, the more that lock contends
under load, reaching close to the #1 lock contention (after VM, which is being
worked on.)

* Sandy bridge Xeon, 2 socket * 8 core
* Ivy bridge Xeon v2, 2 socket * 8 core
* Westmere-EX, 4 socket * 10 core

10cb24248a This is the much-discussed major upgrade to the random(4) device, known to you all as /dev/random.
This code has had an extensive rewrite and a good series of reviews, both by the author and other parties. This means a lot of code has been simplified. Pluggable structures for high-rate entropy generators are available, and it is most definitely not the case that /dev/random can be driven by only a hardware souce any more. This has been designed out of the device. Hardware sources are stirred into the CSPRNG (Yarrow, Fortuna) like any other entropy source. Pluggable modules may be written by third parties for additional sources.

The harvesting structures and consequently the locking have been simplified. Entropy harvesting is done in a more general way (the documentation for this will follow). There is some GREAT entropy to be had in the UMA allocator, but it is disabled for now as messing with that is likely to annoy many people.

The venerable (but effective) Yarrow algorithm, which is no longer supported by its authors now has an alternative, Fortuna. For now, Yarrow is retained as the default algorithm, but this may be changed using a kernel option. It is intended to make Fortuna the default algorithm for 11.0. Interested parties are encouraged to read ISBN 978-0-470-47424-2 "Cryptography Engineering" By Ferguson, Schneier and Kohno for Fortuna's gory details. Heck, read it anyway.

Many thanks to Arthur Mesh who did early grunt work, and who got caught in the crossfire rather more than he deserved to.

My thanks also to folks who helped me thresh this out on whiteboards and in the odd "Hallway track", or otherwise.

My Nomex pants are on. Let the feedback commence!

IPX was a network transport protocol in Novell's NetWare network operating

as default transport in 1998. Later, in this century the Novell Open
Enterprise Server became successor of Novell NetWare. The last release
that claimed to still support IPX was OES 2 in 2007. Routing equipment
vendors (e.g. Cisco) discontinued support for IPX in 2011.

cabad26453 Add support for "first boot" rc.d scripts. [1]
These scripts, containing
# KEYWORD: firstboot
will only be run if a sentinel file (default: /firstboot, configurable
via the rc.conf ${firstboot_sentinel} variable) exists; this sentinel
file will be deleted at the end of the boot process.

Scripts can request that the system reboot after the first boot by
creating the file ${firstboot_sentinel}-reboot.

This functionality is expected to be useful for embedded systems and
virtual machine images, where it may be desirable to
(a) download and install updates which became available between when
the image was created and when it was "turned on";
(b) download and install packages which may be newer than those
which were available when the image was created;
(c) install packages which run binaries during their install process,
bypassing the problem of cross-architecture installs;
(d) resize filesystems to match the disk onto which a VM image was
installed;
(e) perform initialization tasks relevant to cloud systems (e.g.,
Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud);
and likely to perform many other one-time initialization functions.

Document this new functionality in rc.conf(5) and rc(8). [2]

* An entropy cache is written to /entropy (even during installation)

Fix some just-noticed problems:

o Allow this to work with "nodevice random" by fixing where the
MALLOC pool is defined.

o Fix the explicit reseed code. This was correct as submitted, but
in the project branch doesn't need to set the "seeded" bit as this
is done correctly in the "unblock" function.

o Remove some debug ifdeffing.

o Adjust comments.

Time to eat crow for me.

I replaced the sx_* locks that Arthur used with regular mutexes;
this turned out the be the wrong thing to do as the locks need to
be sleepable. Revert this folly.

Add YARROW_RNG and FORTUNA_RNG to sys/conf/options.

Add a SYSINIT that forces a reseed during proc0 setup, which happens
fairly late in the boot process.

Add a RANDOM_DEBUG option which enables some debugging printf()s.

Add a new RANDOM_ATTACH entropy source which harvests entropy from the
get_cyclecount() delta across each call to a device attach method.

Debugging. My attempt at EVENTHANDLER(multiuser) was a failure; use
EVENTHANDLER(mountroot) instead.

This means we can't count on /var being present, so something will
need to be done about harvesting /var/db/entropy/... .

Some policy now needs to be sorted out, and a pre-sync cache needs
to be written, but apart from that we are now ready to go.

Over to review.

Snapshot.

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.

details about HW RNGs, reseeding explicitly and user-supplied
entropy.

As userland writing to /dev/random is no more, remove the "better
than nothing" bootstrap mode.

Add SWI harvesting to the mix.

My box seeds Yarrow by itself in a few seconds! YMMV; more to follow.

Debug run. This now works, except that the "live" sources haven't
been tested. With all sources turned on, this unlocks itself in
a couple of seconds! That is no my box, and there is no guarantee
that this will be the case everywhere.

* Cut debug prints.

* Use the same locks/mutexes all the way through.

* Be a tad more conservative about entropy estimates.

Don't use the "real" assembler mnemonics; older compilers may not
understand them (like when building CURRENT on 9.x).

SNAPSHOT.

Simplify the malloc pools; We only need one for this device.

Simplify the harvest queue.

Marginally improve the entropy pool hashing, making it a bit faster
in the process.

Connect up the hardware "live" source harvesting. This is simplistic
for now, and will need to be made rate-adaptive.

All of the above passes a compile test but needs to be debugged.

r256042 | markm | 2013-10-04 07:55:06 +0100 (Fri, 04 Oct 2013) | 25 lines

Snapshot. This passes the build test, but has not yet been finished or debugged.

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.
Address som review concerns while I'm here, like rename the pseudo-rng
to 'dummy'.

Yarrow wants entropy estimations to be conservative; the usual idea
is that if you are certain you have N bits of entropy, you declare
N/2.

Snapshot of current work;

1) Clean up namespace; only use "Yarrow" where it is Yarrow-specific
or close enough to the Yarrow algorithm. For the rest use a neutral
name.

2) Tidy up headers; put private stuff in private places. More could
be done here.

3) Streamline the hashing/encryption; no need for a 256-bit counter;
128 bits will last for long enough.

There are bits of debug code lying around; these will be removed
at a later stage.

1) example (partially humorous random_adaptor, that I call "EXAMPLE")
 * It's not meant to be used in a real system, it's there to show how
   the basics of how to create interfaces for random_adaptors. Perhaps
   it should belong in a manual page

2) Move probe.c's functionality in to random_adaptors.c
 * rename random_ident_hardware() to random_adaptor_choose()

3) Introduce a new way to choose (or select) random_adaptors via tunable
"rngs_want" It's a list of comma separated names of adaptors, ordered
by preferences. I.e.:
rngs_want="yarrow,rdrand"

Such setting would cause yarrow to be preferred to rdrand. If neither of
them are available (or registered), then system will default to
something reasonable (currently yarrow). If yarrow is not present, then
we fall back to the adaptor that's first on the list of registered
adaptors.

4) Introduce a way where RNGs can play a role of entropy source. This is
mostly useful for HW rngs.

The way I envision this is that every HW RNG will use this
functionality by default. Functionality to disable this is also present.
I have an example of how to use this in random_adaptor_example.c (see
modload event, and init function)

5) fix kern.random.adaptors from
kern.random.adaptors: yarrowpanicblock
to
kern.random.adaptors: yarrow,panic,block

6) add kern.random.active_adaptor to indicate currently selected
adaptor:
root@freebsd04:~ # sysctl kern.random.active_adaptor
kern.random.active_adaptor: yarrow
