conf/files: Add uipc_jumbo.c and uipc_cow.c.
conf/options: Add the 5 options mentioned above.
kern_subr.c: Receive side zero copy implementation. This takes
"disposable" pages attached to an mbuf, gives them to
a user process, and then recycles the user's page.
This is only active when ZERO_COPY_SOCKETS is turned on
and the kern.ipc.zero_copy.receive sysctl variable is
set to 1.
uipc_cow.c: Send side zero copy functions. Takes a page written
by the user and maps it copy on write and assigns it
kernel virtual address space. Removes copy on write
mapping once the buffer has been freed by the network
stack.
uipc_jumbo.c: Jumbo disposable page allocator code. This allocates
(optionally) disposable pages for network drivers that
want to give the user the option of doing zero copy
receive.
uipc_socket.c: Add kern.ipc.zero_copy.{send,receive} sysctls that are
enabled if ZERO_COPY_SOCKETS is turned on.
Add zero copy send support to sosend() -- pages get
mapped into the kernel instead of getting copied if
they meet size and alignment restrictions.
uipc_syscalls.c:Un-staticize some of the sf* functions so that they
can be used elsewhere. (uipc_cow.c)
if_media.c: In the SIOCGIFMEDIA ioctl in ifmedia_ioctl(), avoid
calling malloc() with M_WAITOK. Return an error if
the M_NOWAIT malloc fails.

this with a mutex held. This causes witness warnings
for 'ifconfig -a' with a wi(4) or ti(4) board in the

ip_output.c: Fragment large datagrams so that each segment contains
a multiple of PAGE_SIZE amount of data plus headers.
This allows the receiver to potentially do page
flipping on receives.
if_ti.c: Add zero copy receive support to the ti(4) driver. If
TI_PRIVATE_JUMBOS is not defined, it now uses the
jumbo(9) buffer allocator for jumbo receive buffers.
Add a new character device interface for the ti(4)
driver for the new debugging interface. This allows

and my header splitting patches. Revision 12.4.13

firmware is the same as what was in the tree previously,
with the addition of header splitting support.)
sys/jumbo.h: Jumbo buffer allocator interface.
sys/mbuf.h: Add a new external mbuf type, EXT_DISPOSABLE, to
indicate that the payload buffer can be thrown away /
flipped to a userland process.
socketvar.h: Add prototype for socow_setup.
tiio.h: ioctl interface to the character portion of the ti(4)
driver, plus associated structure/type definitions.
uio.h: Change prototype for uiomoveco() so that we'll know
whether the source page is disposable.
ufs_readwrite.c:Update for new prototype of uiomoveco().
vm_fault.c: In vm_fault(), check to see whether we need to do a page
based copy on write fault.
vm_object.c: Add a new function, vm_object_allocate_wait(). This
does the same thing that vm_object allocate does, except
that it gives the caller the opportunity to specify whether
it should wait on the uma_zalloc() of the object structre.
This allows vm objects to be allocated while holding a
mutex. (Without generating WITNESS warnings.)
vm_object_allocate() is implemented as a call to
vm_object_allocate_wait() with the malloc flag set to
M_WAITOK.
vm_object.h: Add prototype for vm_object_allocate_wait().
vm_page.c: Add page-based copy on write setup, clear and fault
routines.
vm_page.h: Add page based COW function prototypes and variable in
the vm_page structure.

code, and to all the other folks who have tested and reviewed this code

Non-SMP, i386-only, no polling in the idle loop at the moment.
To use this code you must compile a kernel with
options DEVICE_POLLING
and at runtime enable polling with
sysctl kern.polling.enable=1
The percentage of CPU reserved to userland can be set with
sysctl kern.polling.user_frac=NN (default is 50)
while the remainder is used by polling device drivers and netisr's.
These are the only two variables that you should need to touch. There
are a few more parameters in kern.polling but the default values
are adequate for all purposes. See the code in kern_poll.c for
more details on them.
Polling in the idle loop will be implemented shortly by introducing
a kernel thread which does the job. Until then, the amount of CPU
dedicated to polling will never exceed (100-user_frac).
The equivalent (actually, better) code for -stable is at
http://info.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/polling/

There is really nothing in this code that is i386-specific.
If you move the 2 lines supporting the new option from

I do not have a suitable test box to try it. If someone feels like
trying it, I would appreciate it.
NOTE to other developers:
sure some things could be done better, and as always I am open to
constructive criticism, which a few of you have already given and
I greatly appreciated.
However, before proposing radical architectural changes, please
take some time to possibly try out this code, or at the very least

mbuf allocation fails, and fix (i hope) a couple of style bugs.
I believe these printf() are extremely dangerous because now they can
occur on every incoming packet and are not rate limited. They were
meant to warn the sysadmin about lack of resources, but now they
can become a nice way to panic your system under load.
Other drivers (e.g. the fxp driver) have nothing like this.
There is a pending discussion on putting this kind of warnings

available (albeit unaligned) in a buffer.
The performance improvement varies, depending on CPU and memory
speed, but can be quite large especially on slow CPUs. I have seen
over 50% increase on forwarding speed on the sis driver for the
486/133 (embedded systems), which does exactly the same thing.
The behaviour is controlled by a sysctl variable, hw.dc_quick which
defaults to 1. Set it to 0 to restore the old behaviour.
After running a few experiments (in userland, though) I am convinced
that doing the m_devget() is detrimental to performance in almost
all cases.
Even if your CPU has degraded performance with misaligned data,
the bcopy() in the driver has the same overhead due to misaligment
as the one that you save in the uiomove(), plus you do one extra
copy and pollute the cache.
But more often than not, you do not even have to touch the payload,
e.g. when you are forwarding packets, and even in the often-cited
case of NFS, you often end up passing a pointer to the payload to
the disk controller.
In any case, you can play with the sysctl variable to toggle between
the two behaviours, and see if it makes a difference.

On small boxes (e.g. the net4501 from Soekris, featuring a 486/133)
this provides huge performance benefits: the peak forwarding rate
with avg.sized packets goes up by 50-70% because of this change
alone. Faster CPUs might benefit less from this change, but in any
case the CPU has better things to do than waste time on useless
memory-to-memory copies.
Several drivers (for Tulip-like cards) might benefit from a similar
change.
Right now the new behaviour is controlled by a sysctl variable,
hw.sis_quick which defaults to 1 (on), you can set it to 0 to
reintroduce the old behaviour (and compare the results). The
variable is only there to show how much you can gain with this
change, it will go away soon.

Jonathon Lemon's driver (gx) is at least as fast and has more features
and is likely to be better supported.
It is also possible that Intel might support this chipset in FreeBSD
with their own driver. Somewhat secretive and furtive rumblings from
certain Yahoo employees have indicated that this might happen soon.
I'm a little unhappy at the lack of discussion on the net list about
this, or on developers, or on hackers, or the lack of mention on
audit. This then leaves me to try and figure out the right thing
to do.
I've concluded that the right thing to do is to remove wx from FreeBSD,
as this is probably best for FreeBSD.
What the heck, the OpenBSD version will benefit.
1. Add wx_txint_delay as a tunable (defaults to 5000 now, or ~5ms) and switch
to using delayed TXDW interrupts. Since the chip continues to reload the
TIDV with this value for each descriptor written back, this allows continued
deferral of the actual interrupt until the last packet completes (assuming
that 5ms between multiple packets transmitting is reasonable).
2. Add two other SYSCTL entities:
hw.wx.dump_stats
hw.wx.clear_stats
to be used, hackey hackey, to get the watchdog routine to dump/clear
the current softc statistics.
Usage would be:
sysctl -w hw.wx.dump_stats=UNIT
to cause the current stats to be dumped for UNIT.
3. Attempt to clean up wx_detach routine so we don't panic. Well, things
still panic, but given that the code is just like other NIC drivers,
I suspect it's actually something elsewhere, like e1000phy, that's actually
blowing up.
4. Skip the entire test for runt packets- after doing somet thinking
and experimenting, I believe that the chip only doesn't like it if
the whole frame to xmit is < 16 bytes- each TFD can be some fragment
of that. This should improve performance a chunk because of all of the
(14 byte ETHERHEADER + DATA) mbuf chains.
5. Keep track of total frame length. Try not to xmit an odd byte frame-
this is supposed to get around some dumb Cisco switch problems.
6. On the last packet, also set Interrupt Delay && Report Packet Sent
(see #1 above)
7. Attempt to do xmit garbage collection *first* in order to avoid setting
IFF_OACTIVE if at all possible.

Don't do tx gc in the interrupt service routine- that seems to make
things a bit more efficient.
Enable jumbo support by default- but this version of 'jumbo' is broken

stops draining the if_snd send queue, which results in lots of 'no buffers

not draining the send queue until the link comes up was to avoid having
the gratuitous ARP being lost while we're waiting for autoneg to complete
after the interface is first brought up. As an optimization, change the
test in dc_start() so that we only bail if dc_link is not set _and_ there
are less than 10 packets in the send queue. If the queue has many frames
in it, we need to drain them. If the queue has a small number of frames
in it, we can hold off on sending them until the link comes up.

something: offset into the first mbuf of the target chain before copying
the source data over.
Make drivers using m_devget() with a first argument "data - ETHER_ALIGN"
to use the offset argument to pass ETHER_ALIGN in. The way it was previously
done is potentially dangerous if the source data was at the top of a page
and the offset caused the previous page to be copied (if the
previous page has not yet been appropriately mapped).
The old `offset' argument in m_devget() is not used anywhere (it's always
0) and dates back to ~1995 (and earlier?) when support for ethernet trailers
existed. With that support gone, it was merely collecting dust.

mtx_enter(lock, type) becomes:
mtx_lock(lock) for sleep locks (MTX_DEF-initialized locks)
mtx_lock_spin(lock) for spin locks (MTX_SPIN-initialized)
similarily, for releasing a lock, we now have:
mtx_unlock(lock) for MTX_DEF and mtx_unlock_spin(lock) for MTX_SPIN.
We change the caller interface for the two different types of locks
because the semantics are entirely different for each case, and this
makes it explicitly clear and, at the same time, it rids us of the
extra `type' argument.
The enter->lock and exit->unlock change has been made with the idea
that we're "locking data" and not "entering locked code" in mind.
Further, remove all additional "flags" previously passed to the
lock acquire/release routines with the exception of two:
MTX_QUIET and MTX_NOSWITCH
The functionality of these flags is preserved and they can be passed
to the lock/unlock routines by calling the corresponding wrappers:
mtx_{lock, unlock}_flags(lock, flag(s)) and
mtx_{lock, unlock}_spin_flags(lock, flag(s)) for MTX_DEF and MTX_SPIN
locks, respectively.
Re-inline some lock acq/rel code; in the sleep lock case, we only
inline the _obtain_lock()s in order to ensure that the inlined code
fits into a cache line. In the spin lock case, we inline recursion and
actually only perform a function call if we need to spin. This change
has been made with the idea that we generally tend to avoid spin locks
and that also the spin locks that we do have and are heavily used
(i.e. sched_lock) do recurse, and therefore in an effort to reduce
function call overhead for some architectures (such as alpha), we
inline recursion for this case.

All calls to mtx_init() for mutexes that recurse must now include
the MTX_RECURSE bit in the flag argument variable. This change is in
preparation for an upcoming (further) mutex API cleanup.
The witness code will call panic() if a lock is found to recurse but
the MTX_RECURSE bit was not set during the lock's initialization.
The old MTX_RECURSE "state" bit (in mtx_lock) has been renamed to
MTX_RECURSED, which is more appropriate given its meaning.
The following locks have been made "recursive," thus far:
eventhandler, Giant, callout, sched_lock, possibly some others declared
in the architecture-specific code, all of the network card driver locks

is already in 32-bit mode, we need to be able to detect this and still
read the chip ID code. Detecting 32-bit mode is actually a little
tricky, since we want to avoid turning it on accidentally. The easiest
way to do it is to just try and read the PCI subsystem ID from the
bus control registers using 16-bit accesses and compare that with the
value read from PCI config space. If they match, then we know we're in
16-bit mode, otherwise we assume 32-bit mode.
16-bit mode. Technically, pcn_probe() is destructive because once the
chip goes into 32-bit mode, the only way to get it out again is a
hardware reset. And once the device is in 32-bit mode, the lnc driver
won't be able to talk to it. So if pcn_probe() is called before the
lnc probe routine, and pcn_probe() rejects the chip as one it doesn't
support, the lnc driver will be SOL.
I don't like this. I think it's a design flaw that you can't switch

of interrupts generated by the chip. You're supposed to get a 'no more
TX buffers left' interrupt once you hit the last packet whether you
ask for one or not, however it seems the Davicom chip doesn't generate
this interrupt, or at least it doesn't generate it under the same
circumstances. The result is that if you transmit n packets, where
n is less than 64, and then wait 5 seconds, you'll get a watchdog

dc_encap() to request an interrupt for every frame.

The old code counted references to mbuf clusters by using the offset
of the cluster from the start of memory allocated for mbufs and
clusters as an index into an array of chars, which did the reference
counting. If the external storage was not a cluster then reference
counting had to be done by the code using that external storage.
NetBSD's system of linked lists of mbufs was cosidered, but Alfred
felt it would have locking issues when the kernel was made more
SMP friendly.
The system implimented uses a pool of unions to track external
storage. The union contains an int for counting the references and
a pointer for forming a free list. The reference counts are
incremented and decremented atomically and so should be SMP friendly.
This system can track reference counts for any sort of external
storage.
Access to the reference counting stuff is now through macros defined
in mbuf.h, so it should be easier to make changes to the system in
the future.
The possibility of storing the reference count in one of the
referencing mbufs was considered, but was rejected 'cos it would
often leave extra mbufs allocated. Storing the reference count in
the cluster was also considered, but because the external storage
may not be a cluster this isn't an option.
The size of the pool of reference counters is available in the

understand exactly what it is about SMPng that tickles this bug. What I
do know is that the foo_init() routine in most drivers is often called
twice when an interface is brought up. One time is due to the ifconfig(8)
command calling the SIOCSIFFLAGS ioctl to set the IFF_UP flag, and another
is probably due to the kernel calling ifp->if_init at some point. In any
case, the SMPng changes seem to affect the timing of these two events in
such a way that there is a significant delay before any packets are sent
onto the wire after the interface is first brought up. This manifested
itself locally as an SMPng test machine which failed to obtain an address
via DHCP when booting up.
It looks like the second call to fxp_init() is happening faster now than
it did before, and I think it catches the chip while it's in the process
of dealing with the configuration command from the first call. Whatever
the case, a FXP_CSR_SCB_CNA interrupt event is now generated shortly after
the second fxp_init() call. (This interrupt is apparently never generated
by a non-SMPng kernel, so nobody noticed.)
There are two problems with this: first, fxp_intr() does not handle the
FXP_CSR_SCB_CNA interrupt event (it never tests for it or does anything
to deal with it), and second, the meaning of FXP_CSR_SCB_CNA is not
documented in the driver. (Apparently it means "command unit not active.")
Bad coder. No biscuit.
The fix is to have the FXP_CSR_SCB_CNA interrupt handled just like the
FXP_SCB_STATACK_CXTNO interrupt. This prevents the state machine for
the configuration/RX filter programming stuff from getting wedged for
several seconds and preventing packet transmission.

It's nice to have firmware source.

a couple of minor tweaks to the driver.
Also changed the jumbo buffer allocation scheme just a little to avoid
'failed to allocate jumbo buffer' conditions in certain cases.
lock up under moderate to heavy load.
The status & command fields share a 32-bit longword. The programming
API of the eepro apparently requires that you update the command field
of a transmit slot that you've already given to the card. This means
the card could be updating the status field of the same longword at
the same time. Since alphas can only operate on 32-bit chunks of
memory, both the status & command fields are loaded from memory &
operated on in registers when the following line of C is executed:
sc->cbl_last->cb_command &= ~FXP_CB_COMMAND_S;
The race is caused by the card DMA'ing up the status at just the wrong
time -- after it has been loaded into a register & before it has been
written back. The old value of the status is written back, clobbering
the status the card just DMA'ed up. The fact that the card has sent
this frame is missed & the transmit engine appears to hang.
Luckily, as numerous people on the freebsd-alpha list pointed out, the
load-locked/store-conditional instructions used by the atomic
functions work with respect changes in memory due to I/O devices. We
now use them to safely update the command field.

which differ slightly from the Macronix MX98715AEC chip on the sample
adapter that I have in that the multicast hash table is only 128 bits
wide instead of 512. New adapters are popping up with this chip, and
due to improper handling of the smaller hash table, broadcast packets
were not being received correctly.

The former consolidates the operations of if_attach(), ng_ether_attach(),
and bpfattach(). The latter consolidates the corresponding detach operations.
