kernel for FreeBSD 9.0:
Add a new capability mask argument to fget(9) and friends, allowing system
call code to declare what capabilities are required when an integer file
descriptor is converted into an in-kernel struct file *. With options
CAPABILITIES compiled into the kernel, this enforces capability
protection; without, this change is effectively a no-op.
Some cases require special handling, such as mmap(2), which must preserve
information about the maximum rights at the time of mapping in the memory
map so that they can later be enforced in mprotect(2) -- this is done by
narrowing the rights in the existing max_protection field used for similar
purposes with file permissions.
In namei(9), we assert that the code is not reached from within capability
mode, as we're not yet ready to enforce namespace capabilities there.
This will follow in a later commit.

driver would verify that requests for child devices were confined to any
existing I/O windows, but the driver relied on the firmware to initialize
the windows and would never grow the windows for new requests. Now the
driver actively manages the I/O windows.
This is implemented by allocating a bus resource for each I/O window from
the parent PCI bus and suballocating that resource to child devices. The
suballocations are managed by creating an rman for each I/O window. The
suballocated resources are mapped by passing the bus_activate_resource()
call up to the parent PCI bus. Windows are grown when needed by using
bus_adjust_resource() to adjust the resource allocated from the parent PCI
bus. If the adjust request succeeds, the window is adjusted and the
suballocation request for the child device is retried.
When growing a window, the rman_first_free_region() and
rman_last_free_region() routines are used to determine if the front or
end of the existing I/O window is free. From using that, the smallest
ranges that need to be added to either the front or back of the window
are computed. The driver will first try to grow the window in whichever
direction requires the smallest growth first followed by the other
direction if that fails.
Subtractive bridges will first attempt to satisfy requests for child
resources from I/O windows (including attempts to grow the windows). If
that fails, the request is passed up to the parent PCI bus directly
however.
The PCI-PCI bridge driver will try to use firmware-assigned ranges for
child BARs first and only allocate a "fresh" range if that specific range
cannot be accommodated in the I/O window. This allows systems where the
firmware assigns resources during boot but later wipes the I/O windows
(some ACPI BIOSen are known to do this) to "rediscover" the original I/O
window ranges.
The ACPI Host-PCI bridge driver has been adjusted to correctly honor
hw.acpi.host_mem_start and the I/O port equivalent when a PCI-PCI bridge
makes a wildcard request for an I/O window range.
The new PCI-PCI bridge driver is only enabled if the NEW_PCIB kernel option
is enabled. This is a transition aide to allow platforms that do not
yet support bus_activate_resource() and bus_adjust_resource() in their
Host-PCI bridge drivers (and possibly other drivers as needed) to use the
old driver for now. Once all platforms support the new driver, the
kernel option and old driver will be removed.

maxpipekva should remain almost the same on i386. However, on amd64,

Oddly, while this doesn't seem to affect the overall rate of panics

Use xen_update_descriptor to update the LDT rather than bcopy. Under Xen,
pages used for holding LDTs must be read-only, so we can't make the change
ourselves.
Ths obvious alternative of "remap the page read-write, make the change, then
map it read-only again" doesn't work since Xen won't allow an LDT page to be
remapped as R/W. An arguably better solution is used by NetBSD: They don't
modify LDTs in-place at all, but instead copy the entire LDT, modify the new
version, then atomically swap.

Flushing TLBs is required to ensure cache coherency according to the AMD64
architecture manual. Flushing caches is only required when changing from a
cacheable memory type (WB, WP, or WT) to an uncacheable type (WC, UC, or
UC-). Since this function is only used once per processor during startup,
there is no need to take any shortcuts.
- Leave PAT indices 0-3 at the default of WB, WT, UC-, and UC. Program 5 as
WP (from default WT) and 6 as WC (from default UC-). Leave 4 and 7 at the
default of WB and UC. This is to avoid transition from a cacheable memory
type to an uncacheable type to minimize possible cache incoherency. Since
we perform flushing caches and TLBs now, this change may not be necessary
any more but we do not want to take any chances.

this hack is no longer needed.

work properly with single-stepping in a kernel debugger. Specifically,
these routines have always disabled interrupts before increasing the nesting
count and restored the prior state of interrupts after decreasing the nesting
count to avoid problems with a nested interrupt not disabling interrupts
when acquiring a spin lock. However, trap interrupts for single-stepping
can still occur even when interrupts are disabled. Now the saved state of
interrupts is not saved in the thread until after interrupts have been
disabled and the nesting count has been increased. Similarly, the saved
state from the thread cannot be read once the nesting count has been
decreased to zero. To fix this, use temporary variables to store interrupt
state and shuffle it between the thread's MD area and the appropriate
registers.

Extend the Xen blkif API: Negotiable request size and number of
requests.
This change extends the information recorded in the XenStore
allowing block front/back devices to negotiate for optimal I/O
parameters. This has been achieved without sacrificing backward
compatibility with drivers that are unaware of these protocol
enhancements. The extensions center around the connection protocol
which now includes these additions:
o The back-end device publishes its maximum supported values for,
request I/O size, the number of page segments that can be
associated with a request, the maximum number of requests that
can be concurrently active, and the maximum number of pages that
can be in the shared request ring. These values are published
before the back-end enters the XenbusStateInitWait state.
o The front-end waits for the back-end to enter either the InitWait
or Initialize state. At this point, the front end limits it's
own capabilities to the lesser of the values it finds published
by the backend, it's own maximums, or, should any back-end data
be missing in the store, the values supported by the original
protocol. It then initializes it's internal data structures
including allocation of the shared ring, publishes its maximum
capabilities to the XenStore and transitions to the Initialized
state.
o The back-end waits for the front-end to enter the Initalized
state. At this point, the back end limits it's own capabilities
to the lesser of the values it finds published by the frontend,
it's own maximums, or, should any front-end data be missing in
the store, the values supported by the original protocol. It
then initializes it's internal data structures, attaches to the
shared ring and transitions to the Connected state.
o The front-end waits for the back-end to enter the Connnected
state, transitions itself to the connected state, and can
commence I/O.
Although an updated front-end driver must be aware of the back-end's
InitWait state, the back-end has been coded such that it can
tolerate a front-end that skips this step and transitions directly
to the Initialized state without waiting for the back-end.

ring-buffer entry of a request, and for each subsequent
(sg element only) ring-buffer entry associated with the
"header" ring-buffer entry of the request.
o Add the blkif_request_segment_t typedef for segment
elements.
o Add the BLKRING_GET_SG_REQUEST() macro which wraps the
RING_GET_REQUEST() macro and returns a properly cast

- documented a few global variables that describe topology
- retired weirdly set and used logical_cpus variable
- changed fallback code for mp_ncpus > 0 case, so that CPUs are treated
as being different packages rather than cores in a single package
- moved AMD-specific code to topo_probe_amd [jkim]
- in topo_probe_0x4() follow Intel-prescribed procedure of deriving SMT
and core masks and match APIC IDs against those masks [started by
jkim]
- in topo_probe_0x4() drop code for double-checking topology parameters
by looking at L1 cache properties [jkim]
- in topo_probe_0xb() add fallback path to topo_probe_0x4() as
prescribed by Intel [jkim]
Still to do:
- prepare for upcoming AMD CPUs by using new mechanism of uniform
topology description [pointed by jkim]
- probe cache topology in addition to CPU topology and probably use that
for scheduler affinity topology; e.g. Core2 Duo and Athlon II X2 have
the same CPU topology, but Athlon cores do not share L2 cache while
Core2's do (no L3 cache in both cases)
- think of supporting non-uniform topologies if they are ever
implemented for platforms in question
- think how to better described old HTT vs new HTT distinction, HTT vs
SMT can be confusing as SMT is a generic term
- more robust code for marking CPUs as "logical" and/or "hyperthreaded",
use HTT mask instead of modulo operation
- correct support for halting logical and/or hyperthreaded CPUs, let
scheduler know that it shouldn't schedule any threads on those CPUs

The main goal of this is to generate timer interrupts only when there is
some work to do. When CPU is busy interrupts are generating at full rate
of hz + stathz to fullfill scheduler and timekeeping requirements. But
when CPU is idle, only minimum set of interrupts (down to 8 interrupts per
second per CPU now), needed to handle scheduled callouts is executed.
This allows significantly increase idle CPU sleep time, increasing effect
of static power-saving technologies. Also it should reduce host CPU load
on virtualized systems, when guest system is idle.
There is set of tunables, also available as writable sysctls, allowing to
control wanted event timer subsystem behavior:
kern.eventtimer.timer - allows to choose event timer hardware to use.
On x86 there is up to 4 different kinds of timers. Depending on whether
chosen timer is per-CPU, behavior of other options slightly differs.
kern.eventtimer.periodic - allows to choose periodic and one-shot
operation mode. In periodic mode, current timer hardware taken as the only
source of time for time events. This mode is quite alike to previous kernel
behavior. One-shot mode instead uses currently selected time counter
hardware to schedule all needed events one by one and program timer to
generate interrupt exactly in specified time. Default value depends of
chosen timer capabilities, but one-shot mode is preferred, until other is
forced by user or hardware.
kern.eventtimer.singlemul - in periodic mode specifies how much times
higher timer frequency should be, to not strictly alias hardclock() and
statclock() events. Default values are 2 and 4, but could be reduced to 1
if extra interrupts are unwanted.
kern.eventtimer.idletick - makes each CPU to receive every timer interrupt
independently of whether they busy or not. By default this options is
disabled. If chosen timer is per-CPU and runs in periodic mode, this option
has no effect - all interrupts are generating.
As soon as this patch modifies cpu_idle() on some platforms, I have also
refactored one on x86. Now it makes use of MONITOR/MWAIT instrunctions
(if supported) under high sleep/wakeup rate, as fast alternative to other
methods. It allows SMP scheduler to wake up sleeping CPUs much faster
without using IPI, significantly increasing performance on some highly
task-switching loads.

Makefiles or *.mk files, use ${CC:T:Mfoo} instead, so only the basename
of the compiler command (excluding any arguments) is considered.
This allows you to use, for example, CC="/nondefault/path/clang -xxx",

clang correctly.

However, that doesn't explicitly prevent preemption and thread

IPI to a specific CPU by its cpuid. Replace calls to ipi_selected() that
constructed a mask for a single CPU with calls to ipi_cpu() instead. This
will matter more in the future when we transition from cpumask_t to
cpuset_t for CPU masks in which case building a CPU mask is more expensive.

VM86 calls instead of the real mode emulator as a backend. VM86 has been
proven reliable for very long time and it is actually few times faster than
emulation. Increase maximum number of page table entries per VM86 context
from 3 to 8 pages. It was (ridiculously) low and insufficient for new VM86
backend, which shares one context globally. Slighly rearrange and clean up
the emulator backend to accommodate new code. The only visible change here
is stack size, which is decreased from 64K to 4K bytes to sync. with VM86.
Actually, it seems there is no need for big stack in real mode.

different malloc types into hash classes, so that any buffer overruns
or use-after-free will usually only affect memory from malloc types in
that hash class. This is purely a debugging tool; by varying the hash
function and tracking which hash class was corrupted, the intersection
of the hash classes from each instance will point to a single malloc

can be used to catch the offending code.

now it uses a very dumb first-touch allocation policy. This will change in
the future.
- Each architecture indicates the maximum number of supported memory domains
via a new VM_NDOMAIN parameter in <machine/vmparam.h>.
- Each cpu now has a PCPU_GET(domain) member to indicate the memory domain
a CPU belongs to. Domain values are dense and numbered from 0.
- When a platform supports multiple domains, the default freelist
(VM_FREELIST_DEFAULT) is split up into N freelists, one for each domain.
The MD code is required to populate an array of mem_affinity structures.
Each entry in the array defines a range of memory (start and end) and a
domain for the range. Multiple entries may be present for a single
domain. The list is terminated by an entry where all fields are zero.
This array of structures is used to split up phys_avail[] regions that
fall in VM_FREELIST_DEFAULT into per-domain freelists.
- Each memory domain has a separate lookup-array of freelists that is
used when fulfulling a physical memory allocation. Right now the
per-domain freelists are listed in a round-robin order for each domain.
In the future a table such as the ACPI SLIT table may be used to order
the per-domain lookup lists based on the penalty for each memory domain
relative to a specific domain. The lookup lists may be examined via a
new vm.phys.lookup_lists sysctl.
- The first-touch policy is implemented by using PCPU_GET(domain) to
pick a lookup list when allocating memory.
