The license merging in r109471 didn't take into account that licensing
could change. Just removing the 3rd clause obviates the copyright
assignment to the NetBSD Foundation.
We do have plenty of files that have two or more licensing as in this

Obtained from: NetBSD
Part of this file originated in NetBSD, with the original file
carrying two versions of 4-clause BSD licenses. r109471 attempted to
simplify the situation by putting both licenses together.
Meanwhile, NetBSD dropped Clauses 3 and 4 from their own license, and
eventually NetBSD got permission from the University of Utah to drop the
3rd clause.
Keep the license "simple" by dropping the third clause since both TNF,
Utah/Berkeley and phk agree in principle that it can be dropped.

We periodically record synchronization progress in the metadata
block of the disk being synchronized; this allows an interrupted
synchronization to be resumed. However, the frequency of these
updates heavily pessimized synchronization time on some media. This
change modifies gmirror to update metadata based on a time period,
and adds a sysctl to control that period. The default value results
in a much lower update frequency and increases the completion time
for an interrupted rebuild only marginally.

This geom does not immediately detach its consumer relying on the

additional spoiling events. So, we need to account for that.
There are multiple options for fixing this issue like detaching

When using a kernel built with the GZIO config option, dumpon -z can be
used to configure gzip compression using the in-kernel copy of zlib.
This is useful on systems with large amounts of RAM, which require a
correspondingly large dump device. Recovery of compressed dumps is also
faster since fewer bytes need to be copied from the dump device.
Because we have no way of knowing the final size of a compressed dump
until it is written, the kernel will always attempt to dump when
compression is configured, regardless of the dump device size. If the
dump is aborted because we run out of space, an error is reported on
the console.
savecore(8) is modified to handle compressed dumps and save them to
vmcore.<index>.gz, as it does when given the -z option.
A new rc.conf variable, dumpon_flags, is added. Its value is added to
the boot-time dumpon(8) invocation that occurs when a dump device is

In theory, all data access errors mean that a member is out of sync
at most. But they were treated as more serious errors to avoid the
situation where a flaky disk gets repeatedly disconnected, re-synchronized,
reconnected and then disconnected again.
ENXIO is a special error that means that the member disk disappeared,
so it should get the same handling as the GEOM orphaning event.
There is a better chance that when the disk is reconnected, it will be
a good member again.
When ENXIO happens on a read we use the exisiting G_MIRROR_BUMP_SYNCID
mechanism which means that the mirror's syncid is increased as soon
as there is a write to the mirror. That's because no data has got out
of sync yet, but the problematic memeber is disconnected, so the future
write will make it stale.

In integrity mode, a larger logical sector (e.g., 4096 bytes) spans several
physical sectors (e.g., 512 bytes) on the backing device. Due to hash
overhead, a 4096 byte logical sector takes 8.5625 512-byte physical sectors.
This means that only 288 bytes (256 data + 32 hash) of the last 512 byte
sector are used.
The memory allocation used to store the encrypted data to be written to the
physical sectors comes from malloc(9) and does not use M_ZERO.
Previously, nothing initialized the final physical sector backing each
logical sector, aside from the hash + encrypted data portion. So 224 bytes
of kernel heap memory was leaked to every block :-(.
This patch addresses the issue by initializing the trailing portion of the

Implement disk_add_alias to allow aliases to be added to disks. All
disk have a primary name (say "foo") can also have secondary names
(say "bar") such that all instances of "foo" also have a "bar"
alias. So if you have foo0, foo0p1, foo1, foo1s1 and foo1s1a nodes
created by the foo driver and gpart, device nodes bar0, bar0p1, bar1,
bar1s1 and bar1s1a will appear as symlinks back to the original nodes.
This generalizes to multiple aliases. However, since the unit number
follows the primary name, multiple device drivers can't create the
same aliases unless those drives coorinate the unit number space (eg
you couldn't add an alias 'disk' to both 'da' and 'ada' because it's
possible to have da0 and ada0, because 'disk0' is ambiguous).

This patch adds a general mechanism for providing encryption keys to the
kernel from the boot loader. This is intended to enable GELI support at
boot time, providing a better mechanism for passing keys to the kernel
than environment variables. It is designed to be extensible to other
applications, and can easily handle multiple encrypted volumes with
different keys.
This mechanism is currently used by the pending GELI EFI work.
Additionally, this mechanism can potentially be used to interface with
GRUB, opening up options for coreboot+GRUB configurations with completely
encrypted disks.
Another benefit over the existing system is that it does not require
re-deriving the user key from the password at each boot stage.
Most of this patch was written by Eric McCorkle. It was extended by
Allan Jude with a number of minor enhancements and extending the keybuf
feature into boot2.
GELI user keys are now derived once, in boot2, then passed to the loader,
which reuses the key, then passes it to the kernel, where the GELI module
destroys the keybuf after decrypting the volumes.

Changes include modifications in kernel crash dump routines, dumpon(8) and
savecore(8). A new tool called decryptcore(8) was added.
A new DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O control was added to send a kernel crash dump
configuration in the diocskerneldump_arg structure to the kernel.
The old DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O control was renamed to DIOCSKERNELDUMP_FREEBSD11 for
backward ABI compatibility.
dumpon(8) generates an one-time random symmetric key and encrypts it using
an RSA public key in capability mode. Currently only AES-256-CBC is supported
but EKCD was designed to implement support for other algorithms in the future.
The public key is chosen using the -k flag. The dumpon rc(8) script can do this
automatically during startup using the dumppubkey rc.conf(5) variable. Once the
keys are calculated dumpon sends them to the kernel via DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O
control.
When the kernel receives the DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O control it generates a random
IV and sets up the key schedule for the specified algorithm. Each time the
kernel tries to write a crash dump to the dump device, the IV is replaced by
a SHA-256 hash of the previous value. This is intended to make a possible
differential cryptanalysis harder since it is possible to write multiple crash
dumps without reboot by repeating the following commands:
# sysctl debug.kdb.enter=1
db> call doadump(0)
db> continue
# savecore
A kernel dump key consists of an algorithm identifier, an IV and an encrypted
symmetric key. The kernel dump key size is included in a kernel dump header.
The size is an unsigned 32-bit integer and it is aligned to a block size.
The header structure has 512 bytes to match the block size so it was required to
make a panic string 4 bytes shorter to add a new field to the header structure.
If the kernel dump key size in the header is nonzero it is assumed that the
kernel dump key is placed after the first header on the dump device and the core
dump is encrypted.
Separate functions were implemented to write the kernel dump header and the
kernel dump key as they need to be unencrypted. The dump_write function encrypts
data if the kernel was compiled with the EKCD option. Encrypted kernel textdumps
are not supported due to the way they are constructed which makes it impossible
to use the CBC mode for encryption. It should be also noted that textdumps don't
contain sensitive data by design as a user decides what information should be
dumped.
savecore(8) writes the kernel dump key to a key.# file if its size in the header
is nonzero. # is the number of the current core dump.
decryptcore(8) decrypts the core dump using a private RSA key and the kernel
dump key. This is performed by a child process in capability mode.
If the decryption was not successful the parent process removes a partially
decrypted core dump.
Description on how to encrypt crash dumps was added to the decryptcore(8),
dumpon(8), rc.conf(5) and savecore(8) manual pages.
EKCD was tested on amd64 using bhyve and i386, mipsel and sparc64 using QEMU.
The feature still has to be tested on arm and arm64 as it wasn't possible to run
FreeBSD due to the problems with QEMU emulation and lack of hardware.

added to the already-running mirror with the same syncid as m1, so the

Handle this scenario by bumping the syncid of healthy components if any
broken mirrors are discovered during mirror startup.

superblock, allowing provider to be bit bigger, i.e. have some
extra padding after the FS image. That in some cases might be
a side-effect of using CLOOP format which enforces certain block
size and trying to compress image that is not exactly the number
of those blocks in size. The UFS itself does not have any issues
mounting such padded file systems, so it's what GEOM_LABEL should

necessary because CLOOP format lacks explicit EOF or length, so that
in the presence of padding or when the CLOOP is put onto a larger
partition upper level provider size may be larger. Bound amount
of extra data that we might touch to the max length of the compressed
block and detect zero-padding in the last cluster, which when
sector is all-zero might cause us to emit bogus I/O error after
decompression of that fails. To not make code any more complicated
that it needs to be deal with it in lazy-manner, i.e. when we
first access that specific cluster.
This change also fixes stupid mistake in the LZMA code, inherited
from geom_lzma, which does not share length of the output buffer
buffer with the decompression routine, so that in the presence
of corrupted or purposedly tailored data may easily cause heap
overflow and kernel memory corruption.
Beef up validation of the CLOOP TOC by checking that lengths of
all but the last compressed clusters match upper limit set by
the decompressor and improve some error diagnostic output while

after the underlying device went away.
The problem was that callers who queue the GEOM resize provider
event didn't check to make sure that the provider had not been
withered. For the other equivalent case, g_new_provider_event(),
the code checks to see whether the provider has been withered
before queueing a g_new_provider_event() to the event thread.
In some cases, a resize provider event would come through after
the provider had been withered and all of the existing consumers
had been orphaned. When the resize event triggered a taste of
the provider, that would attach a new consumer to the now
withered provider. The wither washer (g_wither_washer() would
never be able to completely tear down the GEOM because of the
consumers that were hanging around.
The solution was to check the G_PF_WITHER provider flag before
queueing the g_resize_provider_event(), and add an assert to
g_resize_provider_event() to insure that it isn't called on a
withered provider.

This change includes support for SCSI SMR drives (which conform to the
Zoned Block Commands or ZBC spec) and ATA SMR drives (which conform to
the Zoned ATA Command Set or ZAC spec) behind SAS expanders.
This includes full management support through the GEOM BIO interface, and
through a new userland utility, zonectl(8), and through camcontrol(8).
This is now ready for filesystems to use to detect and manage zoned drives.
(There is no work in progress that I know of to use this for ZFS or UFS, if
anyone is interested, let me know and I may have some suggestions.)
Also, improve ATA command passthrough and dispatch support, both via ATA
and ATA passthrough over SCSI.
Also, add support to camcontrol(8) for the ATA Extended Power Conditions
feature set. You can now manage ATA device power states, and set various
idle time thresholds for a drive to enter lower power states.
Note that this change cannot be MFCed in full, because it depends on
changes to the struct bio API that break compatilibity. In order to
avoid breaking the stable API, only changes that don't touch or depend on
the struct bio changes can be merged. For example, the camcontrol(8)
changes don't depend on the new bio API, but zonectl(8) and the probe
changes to the da(4) and ada(4) drivers do depend on it.
Also note that the SMR changes have not yet been tested with an actual
SCSI ZBC device, or a SCSI to ATA translation layer (SAT) that supports
ZBC to ZAC translation. I have not yet gotten a suitable drive or SAT
layer, so any testing help would be appreciated. These changes have been
tested with Seagate Host Aware SATA drives attached to both SAS and SATA
controllers. Also, I do not have any SATA Host Managed devices, and I
suspect that it may take additional (hopefully minor) changes to support
them.
Thanks to Seagate for supplying the test hardware and answering questions.

devices.
Add five new sysctl variables that describe zone support and

The da(4) driver supports SCSI ZBC devices, as well as ATA ZAC
devices when they are attached via a SCSI to ATA Translation (SAT)
layer. Since ZBC -> ZAC translation is a new feature in the T10
SAT-4 spec, most SATA drives will be supported via ATA commands
sent via the SCSI ATA PASS-THROUGH command. The da(4) driver will
prefer the ZBC interface, if it is available, for performance
reasons, but will use the ATA PASS-THROUGH interface to the ZAC
command set if the SAT layer doesn't support translation yet.
As I mentioned above, ZBC command support is untested.

Add scsi_ata_zac_mgmt_out() and scsi_ata_zac_mgmt_in() CCB/CDB
building functions. Note that these have return values, unlike
almost all other CCB building functions in CAM. The reason is
that they can fail, depending upon the particular combination
of input parameters. The primary failure case is if the user
wants NCQ, but fails to specify additional CDB storage. NCQ
requires using the 32-byte version of the SCSI ATA PASS-THROUGH
command, and the current CAM CDB size is 16 bytes.

ahci_setup_fis() previously set the top bits of the sector count
register in the FIS to 0 for FPDMA commands. This is okay for
read and write, because the PRIO field is in the only thing in
those bits, and we don't implement that further up the stack.
But, for SEND and RECEIVE FPDMA QUEUED, the subcommand is in that
byte, so it needs to be transmitted to the drive.
In ahci_setup_fis(), always set the the top 8 bits of the
sector count register. We need it in both the standard
and NCQ / FPDMA cases.

number of bytes transferred for REPORT ZONES won't quite match
what is received from the harware. This is because we're
necessarily counting bytes coming from the da(4) / ada(4) drivers,
which are using the disk_zone.h interface to communicate up
the stack. The structure sizes it uses are slightly different
than the SCSI and ATA structure sizes.
sys/sys/ata.h:
Add many bit and structure definitions for ZAC, NCQ, and EPC
command support.
sys/sys/bio.h:
Convert the bio_cmd field to a straight enumeration. This will
yield more space for additional commands in the future. After

Converting to an enumeration will also prevent use as a bitmask

Add a new API for managing zoned disks. This is very close to
the SCSI ZBC and ATA ZAC standards, but uses integers in native
byte order instead of big endian (SCSI) or little endian (ATA)
byte arrays.
This is intended to offer to the complete feature set of the ZBC
and ZAC disk management without requiring the application developer
to include SCSI or ATA headers. We also use one set of headers
for ioctl consumers and kernel bio-level consumers.

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).

This flag indicates that the user wishes to use the GELIBOOT feature to boot from a fully encrypted root file system.
Currently, GELIBOOT does not support key files, and in the future when it does, they will be loaded differently.
Due to the design of GELI, and the desire for secrecy, the GELI metadata does not know if key files are used or not, it just adds the key material (if any) to the HMAC before the optional passphrase, so there is no way to tell if a GELI partition requires key files or not.
Since the GELIBOOT code in boot2 and the loader does not support keys, they will now only attempt to attach if this flag is set. This will stop GELIBOOT from prompting for passwords to GELIs that it cannot decrypt, disrupting the boot process

and geom_uncompress(4):
1. mkuzip(8):
- Proper support for eliminating all-zero blocks when compressing an
image. This feature is already supported by the geom_uzip(4) module
and CLOOP format in general, so it's just a matter of making mkuzip(8)
match. It should be noted, however that this feature while it sounds
great, results in very slight improvement in the overall compression
ratio, since compressing default 16k all-zero block produces only 39
bytes compressed output block, which is 99.8% compression ratio. With
typical average compression ratio of amd64 binaries and data being
around 60-70% the difference between 99.8% and 100.0% is not that
great further diluted by the ratio of number of zero blocks in the
uncompressed image to the overall number of blocks being less than
0.5 (typically). However, this may be important from performance
standpoint, so that kernel are not spinning its wheels decompressing
those empty blocks every time this zero region is read. It could also
be important when you create huge image mostly filled with zero
blocks for testing purposes.
- New feature allowing to de-duplicate output image. It turns out that
if you twist CLOOP format a bit you can do that as well. And unlike
zero-blocks elimination, this gives a noticeable improvement in the
overall compression ratio, reducing output image by something like
3-4% on my test UFS2 3GB image consisting of full FreeBSD base system
plus some of the packages (openjdk, apache etc), about 2.3GB worth of
file data (800+MB compressed). The only caveat is that images created
with this feature "on" would not work on older versions of FeeBSDxi
kernel, hence it's turned off by default.
- provide options to control both features and document them in manual
page.
- merge in all relevant LZMA compression support from the mkulzma(8),
add new option to select between both.
- switch license from ad-hoc beerware into standard 2-clause BSD.
2. geom_uzip(4):
- implement support for de-duplicated images;
- optimize some code paths to handle "all-zero" blocks without reading
any compressed data;
- beef up manual page to explain that geom_uzip(4) is not limited only
to md(4) images. The compressed data can be written to the block
device and accessed directly via magic of GEOM(4) and devfs(4),
including to mount root fs from a compressed drive.
- convert debug log code from being compiled in conditionally into
being present all the time and provide two sysctls to turn it on or
off. Due to intended use of the module, it can be used in
environments where there may not be a luxury to put new kernel with
debug code enabled. Having those options handy allows debug issues
without as much problem by just having access to serial console or
network shell access to a box/appliance. The resulting additional
CPU cycles are just few int comparisons and branches, and those are
minuscule when compared to data decompression which is the main
feature of the module.
- hopefully improve robustness and resiliency of the geom_uzip(4) by
performing some of the data validation / range checking on the TOC
entries and rejecting to attach to an image if those checks fail.
- merge in all relevant LZMA decompression support from the
geom_uncompress(4), enable automatically when appropriate format is
indicated in the header.
- move compilation work into its own worker thread so that it does not
clog g_up. This allows multiple instances work in parallel utilizing
smp cores.
