d3a8a8b9fa Split $ipv6_prefer into $ip6addrctl_policy and $ipv6_activate_all_interfaces.
The $ip6addrctl_policy is a variable to choose a pre-defined address
selection policy set by ip6addrctl(8).
The keyword "ipv4_prefer" sets IPv4-preferred one described in Section 10.3,
the keyword "ipv6_prefer" sets IPv6-preferred one in Section 2.1 in RFC 3484,
respectively.  When "AUTO" is specified, it attempts to read
/etc/ip6addrctl.conf first.  If it is found, it reads and installs it as
a policy table.  If not, either of the two pre-defined policy tables is
chosen automatically according to $ipv6_activate_all_interfaces.

When $ipv6_activate_all_interfaces=NO, interfaces which have no corresponding
$ifconfig_IF_ipv6 is marked as IFDISABLED for security reason.

The default values are ip6addrctl_policy=AUTO and
ipv6_activate_all_interfaces=NO.

4dc88ebedf Add BSD grep to the base system and make it our default grep.
Deliverables: Small and clean code (1,4 KSLOC vs GNU's 8,5 KSLOC),
              lower memory usage than GNU grep, GNU compatibility,
              BSD license.

TODO:         Performance is somewhat behind GNU grep but it is only
              significant for bigger searches.  The reason is complex, the
              most important factor is that GNU grep uses lots of
              optimizations to improve the speed of the regex library.
              First, we need a modern regex library (practically by adopting
              TRE), add support for GNU-style non-standard regexes and then
              reevalute the performance issues and look for bottlenecks.  In
              the meantime, for those, who need better performance, it is
              possible to build GNU grep by setting WITH_GNU_GREP.

c3e289e1ce MFppc64:
Kernel sources for 64-bit PowerPC, along with build-system changes to keep
32-bit kernels compiling (build system changes for 64-bit kernels are
coming later). Existing 32-bit PowerPC kernel configurations must be
updated after this change to specify their architecture.

2965a45315 On Alan's advice, rather than do a wholesale conversion on a single
architecture from page queue lock to a hashed array of page locks
(based on a patch by Jeff Roberson), I've implemented page lock
support in the MI code and have only moved vm_page's hold_count
out from under page queue mutex to page lock. This changes
pmap_extract_and_hold on all pmaps.

21edb039c6 WITH_CTF can now be specified in src.conf (not recommended, there
are some problems with static executables), make.conf (would also
affect ports which do not use GNU make and do not override the
compile targets) or in the kernel config (via "makeoptions
WITH_CTF=yes").

Additional (related) changes:
 - propagate WITH_CTF to module builds
 - do not add -g to the linker flags, it's a noop there anyway
   (at least according to the man page of ld)
 - do not add -g to CFLAGS unconditionally
   we need to have a look if it is really needed (IMO not) or if there
   is a way to add it only when WITH_CTF is used

Note: ctfconvert / ctfmerge lines will not appear in the build output,
to protect the innocent (those which do not build with WITH_CTF would
see the shell-test and may think WITH_CTF is used).

841c0c7ec7 Provide groundwork for 32-bit binary compatibility on non-x86 platforms,
for upcoming 64-bit PowerPC and MIPS support. This renames the COMPAT_IA32
option to COMPAT_FREEBSD32, removes some IA32-specific code from MI parts
of the kernel and enhances the freebsd32 compatibility code to support
big-endian platforms.

f7829d0d5c Introduce the new kernel thread called "deadlock resolver".
While the name is pretentious, a good explanation of its targets is
reported in this 17 months old presentation e-mail:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-arch/2008-August/008452.html

In order to implement it, the sq_type in sleepqueues is mandatory and not
only compiled along with INVARIANTS option. Additively, a new sleepqueue
function, sleepq_type() is added, returning the type of the sleepqueue
linked to a wchan.
Three new sysctls are added in order to configure the thread:
debug.deadlkres.slptime_threshold
debug.deadlkres.blktime_threshold
debug.deadlkres.sleepfreq

rappresenting the thresholds for sleep and block time that will lead to
a deadlock matching (when exceeded), while the sleepfreq rappresents the
number of seconds between 2 consecutive thread runnings.
In order to enable the deadlock resolver thread recompile your kernel
with the option DEADLKRES.

e42fc36867 Switch the default terminal emulation style to xterm for most platforms.
Right now syscons(4) uses a cons25-style terminal emulator. The
disadvantages of that are:

- Little compatibility with embedded devices with serial interfaces.
- Bad bandwidth efficiency, mainly because of the lack of scrolling
  regions.
- A very hard transition path to support for modern character sets like
  UTF-8.

Our terminal emulation library, libteken, has been supporting
xterm-style terminal emulation for months, so flip the switch and make
everyone use an xterm-style console driver.

I still have to enable this on i386. Right now pc98 and i386 share the
same /etc/ttys file. I'm not going to switch pc98, because it uses its
own Kanji-capable cons25 emulator.

IMPORTANT: What to do if things go wrong (i.e. graphical artifacts):

- Run the application inside script(1), try to reduce the problem and
  send me the log file.
- In the mean time, you can run `vidcontrol -T cons25' and `export
  TERM=cons25' so you can run applications the same way you did before.
  You can also build your kernel with `options TEKEN_CONS25' to make all
  virtual terminals use the cons25 emulator by default.

2e77c5abfb Fix several logic bugs in the previous IPv6 variable change and
re-add $ipv6_enable support for backward compatibility.  From
UPDATING:

 1. To use IPv6, simply define $ifconfig_IF_ipv6 like $ifconfig_IF
    for IPv4.  For aliases, $ifconfig_IF_aliasN should be used.
    Note that both variables need the "inet6" keyword at the head.

    Do not set $ipv6_network_interfaces manually if you do not
    understand what you are doing.  It is not needed in most cases.

    $ipv6_ifconfig_IF and $ipv6_ifconfig_IF_aliasN still work, but
    they are obsolete.

 2. $ipv6_enable is obsolete.  Use $ipv6_prefer and/or
    "inet6 accept_rtadv" keyword in ifconfig(8) instead.

    If you define $ipv6_enable=YES, it means $ipv6_prefer=YES and
    all configured interfaces have "inet6 accept_rtadv" in the
    $ifconfig_IF_ipv6.  These are for backward compatibility.

 3. A new variable $ipv6_prefer has been added.  If NO, IPv6
    functionality of interfaces with no corresponding
    $ifconfig_IF_ipv6 is disabled by using "inet6 ifdisabled" flag,
    and the default address selection policy of ip6addrctl(8)
    is the IPv4-preferred one (see rc.d/ip6addrctl for more details).
    Note that if you want to configure IPv6 functionality on the
    disabled interfaces after boot, first you need to clear the flag by
    using ifconfig(8) like:

         ifconfig em0 inet6 -ifdisabled

    If YES, the default address selection policy is set as
    IPv6-preferred.

    The default value of $ipv6_prefer is NO.

 4. If your system need to receive Router Advertisement messages,
    define "inet6 accept_rtadv" in $ifconfig_IF_ipv6.  The rc(8)
    scripts automatically invoke rtsol(8) when the interface becomes
    UP.  The Router Advertisement messages are used for SLAAC
    (State-Less Address AutoConfiguration).

dc6fbf6545 * Completely Remove the option STOP_NMI from the kernel. This option
has proven to have a good effect when entering KDB by using a NMI,
but it completely violates all the good rules about interrupts
disabled while holding a spinlock in other occasions.  This can be the
cause of deadlocks on events where a normal IPI_STOP is expected.
* Adds an new IPI called IPI_STOP_HARD on all the supported architectures.
This IPI is responsible for sending a stop message among CPUs using a
privileged channel when disponible. In other cases it just does match a
normal IPI_STOP.
Right now the IPI_STOP_HARD functionality uses a NMI on ia32 and amd64
architectures, while on the other has a normal IPI_STOP effect. It is
responsibility of maintainers to eventually implement an hard stop
when necessary and possible.
* Use the new IPI facility in order to implement a new userend SMP kernel
function called stop_cpus_hard(). That is specular to stop_cpu() but
it does use the privileged channel for the stopping facility.
* Let KDB use the newly introduced function stop_cpus_hard() and leave
stop_cpus() for all the other cases
* Disable interrupts on CPU0 when starting the process of APs suspension.
* Style cleanup and comments adding

This patch should fix the reboot/shutdown deadlocks many users are

eddfbb763d Build on Jeff Roberson's linker-set based dynamic per-CPU allocator
(DPCPU), as suggested by Peter Wemm, and implement a new per-virtual
network stack memory allocator.  Modify vnet to use the allocator
instead of monolithic global container structures (vinet, ...).  This
change solves many binary compatibility problems associated with
VIMAGE, and restores ELF symbols for virtualized global variables.

Each virtualized global variable exists as a "reference copy", and also
once per virtual network stack.  Virtualized global variables are
tagged at compile-time, placing the in a special linker set, which is
loaded into a contiguous region of kernel memory.  Virtualized global
variables in the base kernel are linked as normal, but those in modules
are copied and relocated to a reserved portion of the kernel's vnet
region with the help of a the kernel linker.

Virtualized global variables exist in per-vnet memory set up when the
network stack instance is created, and are initialized statically from
the reference copy.  Run-time access occurs via an accessor macro, which
converts from the current vnet and requested symbol to a per-vnet
address.  When "options VIMAGE" is not compiled into the kernel, normal
global ELF symbols will be used instead and indirection is avoided.

This change restores static initialization for network stack global
variables, restores support for non-global symbols and types, eliminates
the need for many subsystem constructors, eliminates large per-subsystem
structures that caused many binary compatibility issues both for
monitoring applications (netstat) and kernel modules, removes the
per-function INIT_VNET_*() macros throughout the stack, eliminates the
need for vnet_symmap ksym(2) munging, and eliminates duplicate
definitions of virtualized globals under VIMAGE_GLOBALS.

838d985825 Rework the credential code to support larger values of NGROUPS and
NGROUPS_MAX, eliminate ABI dependencies on them, and raise the to 1024
and 1023 respectively.  (Previously they were equal, but under a close
reading of POSIX, NGROUPS_MAX was defined to be too large by 1 since it
is the number of supplemental groups, not total number of groups.)

The bulk of the change consists of converting the struct ucred member
cr_groups from a static array to a pointer.  Do the equivalent in
kinfo_proc.

Introduce new interfaces crcopysafe() and crsetgroups() for duplicating
a process credential before modifying it and for setting group lists
respectively.  Both interfaces take care for the details of allocating
groups array. crsetgroups() takes care of truncating the group list
to the current maximum (NGROUPS) if necessary.  In the future,
crsetgroups() may be responsible for insuring invariants such as sorting
the supplemental groups to allow groupmember() to be implemented as a
binary search.

Because we can not change struct xucred without breaking application
ABIs, we leave it alone and introduce a new XU_NGROUPS value which is
always 16 and is to be used or NGRPS as appropriate for things such as
NFS which need to use no more than 16 groups.  When feasible, truncate
the group list rather than generating an error.

Minor changes:
  - Reduce the number of hand rolled versions of groupmember().
  - Do not assign to both cr_gid and cr_groups[0].
  - Modify ipfw to cache ucreds instead of part of their contents since
    they are immutable once referenced by more than one entity.

651175c9db Introduce support for adaptive spinning in lockmgr.
Actually, as it did receive few tuning, the support is disabled by
default, but it can opt-in with the option ADAPTIVE_LOCKMGRS.
Due to the nature of lockmgrs, adaptive spinning needs to be
selectively enabled for any interested lockmgr.
The support is bi-directional, or, in other ways, it will work in both
cases if the lock is held in read or write way.  In particular, the
read path is passible of further tunning using the sysctls
debug.lockmgr.retries and debug.lockmgr.loops .  Ideally, such sysctls
should be axed or compiled out before release.

Addictionally note that adaptive spinning doesn't cope well with
LK_SLEEPFAIL.  The reason is that many (and probabilly all) consumers
of LK_SLEEPFAIL are mainly interested in knowing if the interlock was
dropped or not in order to reacquire it and re-test initial conditions.
This directly interacts with adaptive spinning because lockmgr needs
to drop the interlock while spinning in order to avoid a deadlock
(further details in the comments inside the patch).

Final note: finding someone willing to help on tuning this with
relevant workloads would be either very important and appreciated.

f089869fa5 Introduce a mechanism for detecting calls from outbound path of the
network stack when reentering the inbound path from netgraph, and
force queueing of mbufs at the outbound netgraph node.

The mechanism relies on two components.  First, in netgraph nodes
where outbound path of the network stack calls into netgraph, the
current thread has to be appropriately marked using the new
NG_OUTBOUND_THREAD_REF() macro before proceeding to call further
into the netgraph topology, and unmarked using the
NG_OUTBOUND_THREAD_UNREF() macro before returning to the caller.
Second, netgraph nodes which can potentially reenter the network
stack in the inbound path have to mark their inbound hooks using
NG_HOOK_SET_TO_INBOUND() macro.  The netgraph framework will then
detect when there is a danger of a call graph looping back from
outbound to inbound path via netgraph, and defer handing off the
mbufs to the "inbound" node to a worker thread with a clean stack.

In this first pass only the most obvious netgraph nodes have been
updated to ensure no outbound to inbound calls can occur.  Nodes
such as ng_ipfw, ng_gif etc. should be further examined whether a
potential for outbound to inbound call looping exists.

This commit changes the layout of struct thread, but due to
__FreeBSD_version number shortage a version bump has been omitted
at this time, nevertheless kernel and modules have to be rebuilt.

bc29160df3 Introduce an infrastructure for dismantling vnet instances.
Vnet modules and protocol domains may now register destructor
functions to clean up and release per-module state.  The destructor
mechanisms can be triggered by invoking "vimage -d", or a future
equivalent command which will be provided via the new jail framework.

While this patch introduces numerous placeholder destructor functions,
many of those are currently incomplete, thus leaking memory or (even
worse) failing to stop all running timers.  Many of such issues are
already known and will be incrementaly fixed over the next weeks in
smaller incremental commits.

Apart from introducing new fields in structs ifnet, domain, protosw
and vnet_net, which requires the kernel and modules to be rebuilt, this
change should have no impact on nooptions VIMAGE builds, since vnet
destructors can only be called in VIMAGE kernels.  Moreover,
destructor functions should be in general compiled in only in
options VIMAGE builds, except for kernel modules which can be safely
kldunloaded at run time.

global hostname, and its securelevel replaces the global securelevel.
Note that the variable "securelevel" has actually gone away, which
should not cause any problems for code that properly uses
securelevel_gt() and securelevel_ge().

Some jail-related permissions that were kept in global variables and
set via sysctls are now per-jail settings.  The sysctls still exist for
backward compatibility, used only by the now-deprecated jail(2) system
call.

37f17770e0 V_irtualize the if_clone framework, thus allowing for clonable ifnets
to optionally have overlapping unit numbers if attached in different
vnets.

At this stage if_loop is the only clonable ifnet class that has been
extended to allow for such overlapping allocation of unit numbers, i.e.
in each vnet it is possible to have a lo0 interface.  Other clonable ifnet
classes remain to operate with traditional semantics, i.e. each instance
of a clonable ifnet will be assigned a globally unique unit number,
regardless in which vnet such an ifnet becomes instantiated.

While here, garbage collect unused _lo_list field in struct vnet_net,
as well as improve indentation for #defines in sys/net/vnet.h.

The layout of struct vnet_net has changed, therefore bump
__FreeBSD_version.

This change has no functional impact on nooptions VIMAGE kernel builds.

dfc79e892f MFV of tzcode2009e:
Upgrade of the tzcode from 2004a to 2009e.

Changes are numerous, but include...

- New format of the output of zic, which supports both 32 and 64
  bit time_t formats.

- zdump on 64 bit platforms will actually produce some output instead
  of doing nothing for a looooooooong time.

- linux_base-fX, with X >= at least 8, will work without problems related
  to the local time again.

The original patch, based on the 2008e, has been running for a long
time on both my laptop and desktop machine and have been tested by
other people.

After the installation of this code and the running of zic(8), you
need to run tzsetup(8) again to install the new datafile.

f6dfe47a14 Permit buiding kernels with options VIMAGE, restricted to only a single
active network stack instance.  Turning on options VIMAGE at compile
time yields the following changes relative to default kernel build:

1) V_ accessor macros for virtualized variables resolve to structure
fields via base pointers, instead of being resolved as fields in global
structs or plain global variables.  As an example, V_ifnet becomes:

    options VIMAGE:          ((struct vnet_net *) vnet_net)->_ifnet
    default build:           vnet_net_0._ifnet
    options VIMAGE_GLOBALS:  ifnet

2) INIT_VNET_* macros will declare and set up base pointers to be used
by V_ accessor macros, instead of resolving to whitespace:

    INIT_VNET_NET(ifp->if_vnet); becomes

    struct vnet_net *vnet_net = (ifp->if_vnet)->mod_data[VNET_MOD_NET];

3) Memory for vnet modules registered via vnet_mod_register() is now
allocated at run time in sys/kern/kern_vimage.c, instead of per vnet
module structs being declared as globals.  If required, vnet modules
can now request the framework to provide them with allocated bzeroed
memory by filling in the vmi_size field in their vmi_modinfo structures.

4) structs socket, ifnet, inpcbinfo, tcpcb and syncache_head are
extended to hold a pointer to the parent vnet.  options VIMAGE builds
will fill in those fields as required.

5) curvnet is introduced as a new global variable in options VIMAGE
builds, always pointing to the default and only struct vnet.

6) struct sysctl_oid has been extended with additional two fields to
store major and minor virtualization module identifiers, oid_v_subs and
oid_v_mod.  SYSCTL_V_* family of macros will fill in those fields
accordingly, and store the offset in the appropriate vnet container
struct in oid_arg1.
In sysctl handlers dealing with virtualized sysctls, the
SYSCTL_RESOLVE_V_ARG1() macro will compute the address of the target
variable and make it available in arg1 variable for further processing.

Unused fields in structs vnet_inet, vnet_inet6 and vnet_ipfw have
been deleted.

33cde13046 Bite the bullet, and make the IPv6 SSM and MLDv2 mega-commit:
import from p4 bms_netdev.  Summary of changes:

 * Connect netinet6/in6_mcast.c to build.
   The legacy KAME KPIs are mostly preserved.
 * Eliminate now dead code from ip6_output.c.
   Don't do mbuf bingo, we are not going to do RFC 2292 style
   CMSG tricks for multicast options as they are not required
   by any current IPv6 normative reference.
 * Refactor transports (UDP, raw_ip6) to do own mcast filtering.
   SCTP, TCP unaffected by this change.
 * Add ip6_msource, in6_msource structs to in6_var.h.
 * Hookup mld_ifinfo state to in6_ifextra, allocate from
   domifattach path.
 * Eliminate IN6_LOOKUP_MULTI(), it is no longer referenced.
   Kernel consumers which need this should use in6m_lookup().
 * Refactor IPv6 socket group memberships to use a vector (like IPv4).
 * Update ifmcstat(8) for IPv6 SSM.
 * Add witness lock order for IN6_MULTI_LOCK.
 * Move IN6_MULTI_LOCK out of lower ip6_output()/ip6_input() paths.
 * Introduce IP6STAT_ADD/SUB/INC/DEC as per rwatson's IPv4 cleanup.
 * Update carp(4) for new IPv6 SSM KPIs.
 * Virtualize ip6_mrouter socket.
   Changes mostly localized to IPv6 MROUTING.
 * Don't do a local group lookup in MROUTING.
 * Kill unused KAME prototypes in6_purgemkludge(), in6_restoremkludge().
 * Preserve KAME DAD timer jitter behaviour in MLDv1 compatibility mode.
 * Bump __FreeBSD_version to 800084.
 * Update UPDATING.

NOTE WELL:
 * This code hasn't been tested against real MLDv2 queriers
   (yet), although the on-wire protocol has been verified in Wireshark.
 * There are a few unresolved issues in the socket layer APIs to
   do with scope ID propagation.
 * There is a LOR present in ip6_output()'s use of
   in6_setscope() which needs to be resolved. See comments in mld6.c.
   This is believed to be benign and can't be avoided for the moment
   without re-introducing an indirect netisr.

This work was mostly derived from the IGMPv3 implementation, and
has been sponsored by a third party.

443fc3176d Introduce a number of changes to the MROUTING code.
This is purely a forwarding plane cleanup; no control plane
code is involved.

Summary:
 * Split IPv4 and IPv6 MROUTING support. The static compile-time
   kernel option remains the same, however, the modules may now
   be built for IPv4 and IPv6 separately as ip_mroute_mod and
   ip6_mroute_mod.
 * Clean up the IPv4 multicast forwarding code to use BSD queue
   and hash table constructs. Don't build our own timer abstractions
   when ratecheck() and timevalclear() etc will do.
 * Expose the multicast forwarding cache (MFC) and virtual interface
   table (VIF) as sysctls, to reduce netstat's dependence on libkvm
   for this information for running kernels.
   * bandwidth meters however still require libkvm.
 * Make the MFC hash table size a boot/load-time tunable ULONG,
   net.inet.ip.mfchashsize (defaults to 256).
 * Remove unused members from struct vif and struct mfc.
 * Kill RSVP support, as no current RSVP implementation uses it.
   These stubs could be moved to raw_ip.c.
 * Don't share locks or initialization between IPv4 and IPv6.
 * Don't use a static struct route_in6 in ip6_mroute.c.
   The v6 code is still using a cached struct route_in6, this is
   moved to mif6 for the time being.
 * More cleanup remains to be merged from ip_mroute.c to ip6_mroute.c.

v4 path tested using ports/net/mcast-tools.
v6 changes are mostly mechanical locking and *have not* been tested.
As these changes partially break some kernel ABIs, they will not
be MFCed. There is a lot more work to be done here.
