This saves some memory, around 256K I think. It removes some code,
e.g. KPTI does not need to specially map common_tss anymore. Also,
common_tss become domain-local.

According to the OPAL documentation, only the POWER8 (PHB3) should use
the register write TCE reset method. All others should use the OPAL
call.
On POWER9 the call is semantically identical to the register write, with
a wait for completion.
Previously ntb_transport(4) required at least 6 scratchpad registers,
plus 2 more for each additional memory window. That is too much for some
configurations, where several drivers have to share resources of the same
NTB hardware. This patch introduces new compact version of the protocol,
requiring only 3 scratchpad registers, plus one more for each additional
memory window. The optimization is based on fact that neither of version,
number of windows or number of queue pairs really need more then one byte
each, and window sizes of 4GB are not very useful now. The new protocol
is activated automatically when the configuration is low on scratchpad
registers, or it can be activated explicitly with loader tunable.

Address Lookup Table (A-LUT) being enabled allows to specify separate
translation for each 1/128th or 1/256th of the BAR2. Previously it was
used only to limit effective window size by blocking access through some
of A-LUT elements. This change allows A-LUT elements to also point
different memory locations, providing to upper layers several (up to 128)
independent memory windows. A-LUT hardware allows even more flexible
configurations than this, but NTB KPI have no way to manage that now.

This is an exceptional case; generally found during controller errors.
A panic when we attempt to acess slot->curcmd->data is less ideal than
warning, and other verbiage will be emitted to indicate the exact error.
The current linux man page and testing done on a fairly recent linux5.n
kernel have identified two changes to the semantics of the linux
copy_file_range system call.
Since the copy_file_range(2) system call is intended to be linux compatible
and is only currently in head/current and not used by any commands,
it seems appropriate to update the system call to be compatible with
the current linux one.
The first of these semantic changes was changed to be compatible with
linux5.n by r354564.
For the second semantic change, the old linux man page stated that, if
infd and outfd referred to the same file, EBADF should be returned.
Now, the semantics is to allow infd and outfd to refer to the same file
so long as the byte ranges defined by the input file offset, output file offset
and len does not overlap. If the byte ranges do overlap, EINVAL should be
returned.
This patch modifies copy_file_range(2) to be linux5.n compatible for this
semantic change.
via 'diskinfo -v'. This avoids the need to track it down via CAM,
and should also work for disks that don't use CAM. And since it's
inherited thru the GEOM hierarchy, in most cases one doesn't need
to walk the GEOM graph either, eg you can use it on a partition
instead of disk itself.

consistency checking slows performance dramatically. This change
reduces the number of assertions checked by completely walking the
vm_map tree only when the write-lock is released, and only then if the
number of modifications to the tree since the last walk exceeds the
number of tree nodes.

of 0 bytes is done.

A separate patch will change copy_file_range(2) for the other semantic

This was once set, but I removed it by the time I committed it because both
configurations use the same POWER_ID. This can be separated back out if the
situation changes.
DMA is currently disabled while I work out why it's broken, but this is
enough for upstream U-Boot + rpi-firmware + our rpi3-psci-monitor to boot
with the right config.
The RPi 4 is still not in a good "supported" state, as we have no
USB/PCI-E/Ethernet drivers, but if air-gapped pies only able to operate over

In the EFI implementation in U-Boot no ConOut efi variable is created,
this cause loader to fallback to TERM_EMU implementation which is very
very very slow (and uses the ConOut device in the system table anyway).
The UEFI spec aren't clear as if this variable needs to exists or not.

Mergeable rx buffers is a virtio-net feature that allows the hypervisor
to use multiple RX descriptor chains to receive a single receive packet.
Without this feature, a TSO-enabled guest is compelled to publish only
64K (or 32K) long chains, and each of these large buffers is consumed
to receive a single packet, even a very short one. This is a waste of
memory, as a RX queue has room for 256 chains, which means up to 16MB
of buffer memory for each (single-queue) vtnet device.
With the feature on, the guest can publish 2K long chains, and the
hypervisor will merge them as needed.
This change also enables the feature in the netmap backend, which
supports virtio-net offloads. We plan to add support for the
tap backend too.
Note that differently from QEMU/KVM, here we implement one-copy receive,
while QEMU uses two copies.

Object files may specify insufficient alignment on certain sections, for
example due to a bug in NASM[1]. When we detect that case in elfcopy or
strip, emit a warning and increase the alignment to the minimum
required.
The NASM bug was fixed in 2015[2], but we might as well have this fixup
(and warning) in elfcopy in case we encounter such a file for any other
reason.
This might be reworked somewhat upstream - see ELF Tool Chain
ticket 485[3].

RFC 8200 says:
"If the fragment is a whole datagram (that is, both the Fragment
Offset field and the M flag are zero), then it does not need
any further reassembly and should be processed as a fully
reassembled packet (i.e., updating Next Header, adjust Payload
Length, removing the Fragment header, etc.). .."
That means we should remove the fragment header and make all the adjustments
rather than just skipping over the fragment header. The difference should
be noticeable in that a properly handled atomic fragment triggering an ICMPv6
message at an upper layer (e.g. dest unreach, unreachable port) will not
include the fragment header.
Update the test cases to also test for an unfragmentable part. That is
needed so that the next header is properly updated (not just lengths).

works everywhere but sparc64; add a reference to the PR in case anyone
stumbles across this and is looking for more information.
Previously the mkfs_msdos function (from newfs_msdos) emitted warnings
in the case that an image size is specified and the target is not a
file, or no size is specified and the target is not a character device.
The latter warning (not a character device) doesn't make sense when this
code is used in makefs, regardless of whether an image size is specified
or not.
