it. There are two problems which shall be addressed for shared
lookups use to have measurable effect on nullfs scalability:
1. When vfs_lookup() calls VOP_LOOKUP() for nullfs, which passes lookup
operation to lower fs, resulting vnode is often only shared-locked. Then
null_nodeget() cannot instantiate covering vnode for lower vnode, since
insmntque1() and null_hashins() require exclusive lock on the lower.
Change the assert that lower vnode is exclusively locked to only
require any lock. If null hash failed to find pre-existing nullfs
vnode for lower vnode and the vnode is shared-locked, the lower vnode
lock is upgraded.
2. Nullfs reclaims its vnodes on deactivation. This is due to nullfs
inability to detect reclamation of the lower vnode. Reclamation of a
nullfs vnode at deactivation time prevents a reference to the lower
vnode to become stale.
Change nullfs VOP_INACTIVE to not reclaim the vnode, instead use the
VFS_RECLAIM_LOWERVP to get notification and reclaim upper vnode
together with the reclamation of the lower vnode.
Note that nullfs reclamation procedure calls vput() on the lowervp
vnode, temporary unlocking the vnode being reclaimed. This seems to be
fine for MPSAFE filesystems, but not-MPSAFE code often put partially
initialized vnode on some globally visible list, and later can decide
that half-constructed vnode is not needed. If nullfs mount is created
above such filesystem, then other threads might catch such not
properly initialized vnode. Instead of trying to overcome this case,
e.g. by recursing the lower vnode lock in null_reclaim_lowervp(), I
decided to rely on nearby removal of the support for non-MPSAFE
filesystems.

about vnode reclamation. Typical use is for the bypass mounts like
nullfs to get a notification about lower vnode going away.
Now, vgone() calls new VFS op vfs_reclaim_lowervp() with an argument
lowervp which is reclaimed. It is possible to register several
reclamation event listeners, to correctly handle the case of several
nullfs mounts over the same directory.
For the filesystem not having nullfs mounts over it, the overhead
added is a single mount interlock lock/unlock in the vnode reclamation
path.

MSG_WAITALL is set, and it is possible to do the entire receive
operation at once if we block (resid <= hiwat). Actually it might make
the recv(2) with MSG_WAITALL flag get stuck when there is enough space
in the receiver buffer to satisfy the request but not enough to open
the window closed previously due to the buffer being full.
The issue can be reproduced using the following scenario:
On the sender side do 2 send(2) requests:
1) data of size much smaller than SOBUF_SIZE (e.g. SOBUF_SIZE / 10);
2) data of size equal to SOBUF_SIZE.
On the receiver side do 2 recv(2) requests with MSG_WAITALL flag set:
1) recv() data of SOBUF_SIZE / 10 size;
2) recv() data of SOBUF_SIZE size;
We totally fill the receiver buffer with one SOBUF_SIZE/10 size request
and partial SOBUF_SIZE request. When the first request is processed we
get SOBUF_SIZE/10 free space. It is just enough to receive the rest of
bytes for the second request, and soreceive_generic() blocks in the
part that is a subject of this change waiting for the rest. But the
window was closed when the buffer was filled and to avoid silly window
syndrome it opens only when available space is larger than sb_hiwat/4
or maxseg. So it is stuck and pending data is only sent via TCP window

used with Terasic's DE-4 and other similar FPGA boards. This display
is 800x480 and includes a capacitive touch screen, multi-touch
gesture recognition, etc. This device driver depends on a Cambridge-
provided IP core that allows the MTL device to be hooked up to the
Altera Avalon SoC bus, and also provides a VGA-like text frame buffer.
Although it is compiled as a single device driver, it actually
implements a number of different device nodes exporting various
aspects of this multi-function device to userspace:
- Simple memory-mapped driver for the MTL 24-bit pixel frame buffer.
- Simple memory-mapped driver for the MTL control register set.
- Simple memory-mapped driver for the MTL text frame buffer.
- syscons attachment for the MTL text frame buffer.
This driver attaches directly to Nexus as is common for SoC device
drivers, and for the time being is considered BERI-specific, although
in principle it might be used with other hard and soft cores on
Altera FPGAs.
Control registers, including touchscreen input, are simply memory
mapped; in the future it would be desirable to hook up a more
conventional device node that can stream events, support kqueue(2)/
poll(2)/select(2), etc.
This is the first use of syscons on MIPS, as far as I can tell, and
there are some loose ends, such as an inability to use the hardware
cursor. More fundamentally, it appears that syscons(4) assumes that
either a host is PC-like (i386, amd64) *or* it must be using a
graphical frame buffer. While the MTL supports a graphical frame
buffer, using the text frame buffer is preferable for console use.
Fixing this issue in syscons(4) requires non-trivial changes, as the
text frame buffer support assumes that direct memory access can be
done to the text frame buffer without using bus accessor methods,
which is not the case on MIPS. As a workaround for this, we instead
double-buffer and pretend to be a graphical frame buffer exposing
text accessor methods, leading to some quirks in syscons behaviour.

which presents a UART-like interface over the Avalon bus that can be
addressed over JTAG. This IP core proves extremely useful, allowing us to
connect trivially to the FreeBSD console over JTAG for FPGA-embedded hard
and soft cores. As interrupts are optionally configured for this soft
core, we support both interrupt-driven and polled modes of operation,
which must be selected using device.hints. UART instances appear in /dev
as ttyu0, ttyu1, etc.
However, it also contains a number of quirks, which make it difficult to
tell when JTAG is connected, and some buffering issues. We work around
these as best we can, using various heuristics.
While the majority of this device driver is not only not BERI-specific,
but also not MIPS-specific, for now add its defines in the BERI files
list, as the console-level parts are aware of where the first JTAG UART
is mapped on Avalon, and contain MIPS-specific address translation, to
use before Newbus and device.hints are available.

which can be synthesised in Altera FPGAs. An altera_sdcardc device
probes during the boot, and /dev/altera_sdcard devices come and go as
inserted and removed. The device driver attaches directly to the
Nexus, as is common for system-on-chip device drivers.
This IP core suffers a number of significant limitations, including a
lack of interrupt-driven I/O -- we must implement timer-driven polling,
only CSD 0 cards (up to 2G) are supported, there are serious memory
access issues that require the driver to verify writes to memory-mapped
buffers, undocumented alignment requirements, and erroneous error
returns. The driver must therefore work quite hard, despite a fairly
simple hardware-software interface. The IP core also supports at most
one outstanding I/O at a time, so is not a speed demon.
However, with the above workarounds, and subject to performance
problems, it works quite reliably in practice, and we can use it for
read-write mounts of root file systems, etc.

CPU cores on Altera FPGAs. The device driver allows memory-mapped devices
on Altera's Avalon SoC bus to be exported to userspace via device nodes.
device.hints directories dictate device name, permissible access methods,
physical address and length, and I/O alignment. Devices can be accessed
using read(2)/write(2), but also memory mapped in userspace using mmap(2).
Devices attach directly to the Nexus, as is common for embedded device
drivers; in the future something more mature might be desirable. There is
currently no facility to support directing device-originated interrupts to
userspace.
In the future, this device driver may be renamed to socgen(4), as it can
in principle also be used with other system-on-chip (SoC) busses, such as
Axi on ASICs and FPGAs. However, we have only tested it on Avalon busses
with memory-mapped ROMs, frame buffers, etc.

that can occur when both sides close at the same time.
If that occurs, without this fix the connection enters
FIN1 on both sides and they will forever send FIN|ACK at
each other until the connection times out. This is because
we stopped processing the FIN|ACK and thus did not advance
the sequence and so never ACK'd each others FIN. This
fix adjusts it so we *do* process the FIN properly and
the race goes away ;-)

DFS parameters fetched from the HAL.
Check whether the specific chipset supports RADAR reporting before
enabling DFS; or some of the (unset) DFS methods may fail.
Tested:
* AR5210 (correctly didn't enable radar PHY reporting)
* AR5212 (correctly enabled radar PHY reporting w/ the correct default
parameters.)
TODO:
* Now that I have this capability check in place, I could remove the
(empty) DFS methods from AR5210/AR5211.
* Test on AR5416, AR9160, AR9280.

in the AR5416 HAL.)

BUS_DMA_COHERENT attribute
The minimum unit for changing "cachable" attribute is page, so call
to pmap_change_attr effectively disable cache for all pages that newly
allocated DMA memory region spans on. The problem is that general-purpose
memory could reside on these pages too and disabling cache might affect
performance. Moreover ldrex/strex operators raise Data Abort exception
when accessing memory on page with "cachable" attribute off.
BUS_DMA_COHERENT does nto require memory to be coherent. It just suggests
to do best effort for reducing synchronization overhead.
PMC_PROC_IS_USING_PMCS macro.
Invocations of this macro are not synchronized with setting/clearing
of P_HWPMC flag, so the atomic operation here isn't needed. Removing
the atomic operation provides noticeable improvement (5-6%) on
some scheduler-intensive workloads with HWPMC_HOOKS enabled on an
8C Sandy Bridge Xeon system.
