axe_cmd() calls. Without this the device can get confused if multiple
threads attempt these operations concurrently. The problem was
easily reproducible by running "ifconfig axe0" in a loop because
eventually it would conflict with axe_tick_task().
A similar approach is probably required in all USB ethernet drivers.
(1) bpf peer attaches to interface netif0
(2) Packet is received by netif0
(3) ifp->if_bpf pointer is checked and handed off to bpf
(4) bpf peer detaches from netif0 resulting in ifp->if_bpf being
initialized to NULL.
(5) ifp->if_bpf is dereferenced by bpf machinery
(6) Kaboom
This race condition likely explains the various different kernel panics
reported around sending SIGINT to tcpdump or dhclient processes. But really
this race can result in kernel panics anywhere you have frequent bpf attach
and detach operations with high packet per second load.
Summary of changes:
- Remove the bpf interface's "driverp" member
- When we attach bpf interfaces, we now set the ifp->if_bpf member to the
bpf interface structure. Once this is done, ifp->if_bpf should never be
NULL. [1]
- Introduce bpf_peers_present function, an inline operation which will do
a lockless read bpf peer list associated with the interface. It should
be noted that the bpf code will pickup the bpf_interface lock before adding
or removing bpf peers. This should serialize the access to the bpf descriptor
list, removing the race.
- Expose the bpf_if structure in bpf.h so that the bpf_peers_present function
can use it. This also removes the struct bpf_if; hack that was there.
- Adjust all consumers of the raw if_bpf structure to use bpf_peers_present
Now what happens is:
(1) Packet is received by netif0
(2) Check to see if bpf descriptor list is empty
(3) Pickup the bpf interface lock
(4) Hand packet off to process
From the attach/detach side:
(1) Pickup the bpf interface lock
(2) Add/remove from bpf descriptor list
Now that we are storing the bpf interface structure with the ifnet, there is
is no need to walk the bpf interface list to locate the correct bpf interface.
We now simply look up the interface, and initialize the pointer. This has a
nice side effect of changing a bpf interface attach operation from O(N) (where
N is the number of bpf interfaces), to O(1).
[1] From now on, we can no longer check ifp->if_bpf to tell us whether or
not we have any bpf peers that might be interested in receiving packets.

a zero length transfer would cause a NULL dereference.

host controllers to avoid the need to allocate any multi-page
physically contiguous memory blocks. This makes it possible to use
USB devices reliably on low-memory systems or when memory is too
fragmented for contiguous allocations to succeed.
The USB subsystem now uses bus_dmamap_load() directly on the buffers
supplied by USB peripheral drivers, so this also avoids having to
copy data back and forth before and after transfers. The ehci and
ohci controllers support scatter/gather as long as the buffer is
contiguous in the virtual address space. For uhci the hardware
cannot handle a physical address discontinuity within a USB packet,
so it is necessary to copy small memory fragments at times.
EHCI spec for linking in new qTDs into an asynchronous QH. This
requires that there is a qTD marked as not active and not halted
at the start of the QH's list, and the hardware will know to re-fetch
the qTD on each pass rather than just looking at the overlay qTD:
"The host controller must be able to advance the queue from the
Fetch QH state in order to avoid all hardware/software race
conditions. This simple mechanism allows software to simply link
qTDs to the queue head and activate them, then the host controller
will always find them if/when they are reachable."
This is achieved by keeping an "inactivesqtd" entry on the QH list,
and re-using it each time as the start of the next transfer, and
allocating a new qTD to become the next inactivesqtd. Then a new
transfer can be activated by just setting its "active" flag, which
avoids all the previous messing with overlay qTD state in
ehci_set_qh_qtd().
before starting exploring (4 seconds), and extend the wait period
if new USB buses are attached while waiting.
This works around a problem seen when there is more than one EHCI
controller in the system and you kldload usb.ko after the system
has booted. The problem is that usb.ko contains 3 separate PCI
drivers which get initialised one by one (uhci, ohci, ehci), and
when each driver is initialised, all PCI buses are re-probed after
just the addition of that driver. This means that there can be a
significant delay between the attaching of a companion controller
and the subsequent EHCI attach, so it is possible for the companion
controller's USB 1.x bus to be scanned before the EHCI driver gets
a chance to check if there is really a USB 2.x device connected.

transfers. This fixes some cases where the software toggle tracking
was not doing the right thing. For example, a short transfer that
transferred 0 bytes of the requested qTD transfer size does cause
a toggle change, but the existing code was assuming it didn't.

Previously we could assume an initial toggle value of zero because
the clear-stall operation resets the device's toggle state.
