7d82f624de Make nmdm(4) use MPSAFE callouts.
For some reason the nmdm(4) driver doesn't use CALLOUT_MPSAFE, even
though we live in the MPSAFE TTY era. Add the CALLOUT_MPSAFE flags.
System survives.

bc093719ca Integrate the new MPSAFE TTY layer to the FreeBSD operating system.
The last half year I've been working on a replacement TTY layer for the
FreeBSD kernel. The new TTY layer was designed to improve the following:

- Improved driver model:

  The old TTY layer has a driver model that is not abstract enough to
  make it friendly to use. A good example is the output path, where the
  device drivers directly access the output buffers. This means that an
  in-kernel PPP implementation must always convert network buffers into
  TTY buffers.

  If a PPP implementation would be built on top of the new TTY layer
  (still needs a hooks layer, though), it would allow the PPP
  implementation to directly hand the data to the TTY driver.

- Improved hotplugging:

  With the old TTY layer, it isn't entirely safe to destroy TTY's from
  the system. This implementation has a two-step destructing design,
  where the driver first abandons the TTY. After all threads have left
  the TTY, the TTY layer calls a routine in the driver, which can be
  used to free resources (unit numbers, etc).

  The pts(4) driver also implements this feature, which means
  posix_openpt() will now return PTY's that are created on the fly.

- Improved performance:

  One of the major improvements is the per-TTY mutex, which is expected
  to improve scalability when compared to the old Giant locking.
  Another change is the unbuffered copying to userspace, which is both
  used on TTY device nodes and PTY masters.

Upgrading should be quite straightforward. Unlike previous versions,
existing kernel configuration files do not need to be changed, except
when they reference device drivers that are listed in UPDATING.

29d4cb241b Don't enforce unique device minor number policy anymore.
Except for the case where we use the cloner library (clone_create() and
friends), there is no reason to enforce a unique device minor number
policy. There are various drivers in the source tree that allocate unr
pools and such to provide minor numbers, without using them themselves.

Because we still need to support unique device minor numbers for the
cloner library, introduce a new flag called D_NEEDMINOR. All cdevsw's
that are used in combination with the cloner library should be marked
with this flag to make the cloning work.

This means drivers can now freely use si_drv0 to store their own flags
and state, making it effectively the same as si_drv1 and si_drv2. We
still keep the minor() and dev2unit() routines around to make drivers
happy.

The NTFS code also used the minor number in its hash table. We should
not do this anymore. If the si_drv0 field would be changed, it would no
longer end up in the same list.

6a113b3de7 Merge the dev_clone and dev_clone_cred event handlers into a single
event handler, dev_clone, which accepts a credential argument.
Implementors of the event can ignore it if they're not interested,
and most do.  This avoids having multiple event handler types and
fall-back/precedence logic in devfs.

This changes the kernel API for /dev cloning, and may affect third
party packages containg cloning kernel modules.

017a4322b5 If CDSR_OFLOW (stty dsrflow) is enabled on one or both sides of a
null-modem tty device emulate the speed settings faithfully.

The speed is emulated independently for the two directions, using
the slower of the local sides ispeed and the remote sides ospeed.

The emulated speed takes settings of bits/char, parity and stopbit
into account.

95bc568977 Add new function ttyinitmode() which sets our systemwide default
modes on a tty structure.

Both the ".init" and the current settings are initialized allowing
the function to be used both at attach and open time.

The function takes an argument to decide if echoing should be enabled.
Echoing should not be enabled for regular physical serial ports
unless they are consoles, in which case they should be configured
by ttyconsolemode() instead.

Use the new function throughout.

9c01a318d2 A major overhaul of the nmdm(4) driver:
It was based on the pty(4) driver which as a tty side an a non-tty side.

Nmdm(4) seems to have inherited two symmetric sides from pty but
unfortunately they are not quite ttys.  Running a getty one one
side and tip on the other failed to produce NL->CRNL mapping for
instance.

Rip out the basically bogus cdevsw->{read,write} functions and rely
on ttyread() and ttywrite() which does the same thing.

Use taskqueue_swi_giant to run a task for either side to do what
needs to be done.  (Direct calling is not an option as it leads to
recursion.)  Trigger the task from the t_oproc and t_stop methods.

Default the ports to not ECHO.  Since we neither rate limiting nor
emulation, two ports echoing each other is a really bad idea, which
can only be properly mitigated by rate limiting, rate emulation or
intelligent detection.  Rate emulation would be a neat feature.

Ditch the modem-line emulation, if needed for some app, it needs
to be thought much more about how it interacts with the open/close
logic.

b0b0334878 Device megapatch 2/6:
This commit adds a couple of functions for pseudodrivers to use for
implementing cloning in a manner we will be able to lock down (shortly).

Basically what happens is that pseudo drivers get a way to ask for
"give me the dev_t with this unit number" or alternatively "give
me a dev_t with the lowest guaranteed free unit number" (there is
unfortunately a lot of non-POLA in the exact numeric value of this
number, just live with it for now)

Managing the unit number space this way removes the need to use
rman(9) to do so in the drivers this greatly simplifies the code in
the drivers because even using rman(9) they still needed to manage
their dev_t's anyway.

I have taken the if_tun, if_tap, snp and nmdm drivers through the
mill, partly because they (ab)used makedev(), but mostly because
together they represent three different problems for device-cloning:

if_tun and snp is the plain case: just give me a device.

if_tap has two kinds of devices, with a flag for device type.

nmdm has paired devices (ala pty) can you can clone either of them.

512824f8f7 - Implement selwakeuppri() which allows raising the priority of a
thread being waken up.  The thread waken up can run at a priority as
  high as after tsleep().

- Replace selwakeup()s with selwakeuppri()s and pass appropriate
  priorities.

- Add cv_broadcastpri() which raises the priority of the broadcast
  threads.  Used by selwakeuppri() if collision occurs.

ed692400eb I don't know from where the notion that device driver should or
even could call VOP_REVOKE() on vnodes associated with its dev_t's
has originated, but it stops right here.

If there are things people belive destroy_dev() needs to learn how to
do, please tell me about it, preferably with a reproducible test case.

Include <sys/uio.h> in bluetooth code rather than rely on <sys/vnode.h>
to do so.

The fact that some of the USB code needs to include <sys/vnode.h>
still disturbs me greatly, but I do not have time to chase that.

44731cab3b Change the suser() API to take advantage of td_ucred as well as do a
general cleanup of the API.  The entire API now consists of two functions
similar to the pre-KSE API.  The suser() function takes a thread pointer
as its only argument.  The td_ucred member of this thread must be valid
so the only valid thread pointers are curthread and a few kernel threads
such as thread0.  The suser_cred() function takes a pointer to a struct
ucred as its first argument and an integer flag as its second argument.
The flag is currently only used for the PRISON_ROOT flag.

Add the 'virtual nulmodem driver'
Particularly useful for debuging kernels using vmware.

If your name is Bruce evans and you are a WIZ at tty interfaces,
then you should probably rip this to shreds and offer lots of suggestions and
patches. I've been using this since 4.0-CURRENT and it's never caused
problems but I'm sure I got something wrong. This is similar to the pty/cty
device driver except that both sides are ttys. Even minor numbers
are side A and odd minor numbers are side B.
Work needs to be done regarding what happens to the other side when you
close a node.

to use with vmware, configure vmware to redirect COM2 out to side A of one
of these and boot a kernel with teh gdb remote port set to sio1.
AFTER dropping into the gdb kernel debugger in your test kernel,
fire up gdb with it's remote port pointing at the appropriate side B.

To catch all console output, you can boot the vmware kernel with a serial
console, (COM1) similarly redirected to a nulmodem, and use 'tip' to observe it.

This is practically unaltered since pre 4.0 days except for
changes made along the way needed to make it compile, so any suggestions
or offers of total rewrites will be listenned to :-)
