Add ICL_NOCOPY flag to icl_pdu_append_data(), specifying that the method
can just reference the data buffer instead of immediately copying it.
Extend the offload KPI with optional PDU queue method, allowing to specify
completion callback, called when all the data referenced by above has been
transferred and won't be accessed any more (the buffers can be freed).
Implement the above functionality in software iSCSI driver using mbufs
with external storage and reference counter. Note that some NICs (ixl(4))
may keep the mbuf in TX queue for a long time, so CTL has to be ready.
Add optional method to struct ctl_scsiio for buffer reference counting.
Implement it for CTL block backend, allowing to delay free of the struct
ctl_be_block_io and memory it references as needed. In first reincarnation
of the patch I tried to delay whole I/O as it is done for FibreChannel,
that was cleaner, but due to the above callback delays I had to rewrite
it this way to not leave LUN referenced potentially for hours or more.
All together on sequential read from ZFS ARC this saves about 30% of CPU
time and memory bandwidth by avoiding one of 3 memory copies (the other
two are from ZFS ARC to DMU cache and then from DMU cache to CTL buffers).
On tests with 2x Xeon Silver 4114 this allows to reach full line rate of
100GigE NIC. Tests with Gold CPUs and two 100GigE NICs are stil TBD,
but expectations to saturate them are pretty high. ;)

The current vnode layout is not smp-friendly by having frequently read data
avoidably sharing cachelines with very frequently modified fields. In
particular v_iflag inspected for VI_DOOMED can be found in the same line with
v_usecount. Instead make it available in the same cacheline as the v_op, v_data
and v_type which all get read all the time.
v_type is avoidably 4 bytes while the necessary data will easily fit in 1.
Shrinking it frees up 3 bytes, 2 of which get used here to introduce a new
flag field with a new value: VIRF_DOOMED.

This allows replacing "sys/eventfilter.h" includes with "sys/_eventfilter.h"
in other header files (e.g., sys/{bus,conf,cpu}.h) and reduces header
pollution substantially.
EVENTHANDLER_DECLARE and EVENTHANDLER_LIST_DECLAREs were moved out of .c
files into appropriate headers (e.g., sys/proc.h, powernv/opal.h).
As a side effect of reduced header pollution, many .c files and headers no
longer contain needed definitions. The remainder of the patch addresses
adding appropriate includes to fix those files.
LOCK_DEBUG and LOCK_FILE_LINE_ARG are moved to sys/_lock.h, as required by
sys/mutex.h since r326106 (but silently protected by header pollution prior
to this change).
No functional change (intended). Of course, any out of tree modules that
relied on header pollution for sys/eventhandler.h, sys/lock.h, or
sys/mutex.h inclusion need to be fixed. __FreeBSD_version has been bumped.
Since in most configurations CTL serves as network service, we found
that this change improves local system interactivity under heavy load.
Priority of main threads is set slightly higher then worker taskqueues

Replace long per-LUN queue of blocked commands, scanned on each command
completion and sometimes even twice, causing up to O(n^^2) processing cost,
by much shorter per-command blocked queues, scanned only when respective
command completes, and check only commands before the previous blocker,
reducing cost to O(n).
While there, unblock aborted commands to make them "complete" ASAP to be
removed from the OOA queue and so not waste time ordering other commands
against them. Aborted commands that were not sent to execution yet should
have no visible side effects, so this is safe and easy optimization now,
comparing to commands already in processing, which are a still pain.
Together those two optimizations should fix quite pathological case, when
due to backend slowness CTL accumulated many thousands of blocked requests,
partially aborted by initiator and so supposedly not even existing, but
still wasting CTL CPU time.

disappeared. It certainly shouldn't break anything.
Now, technically, it shouldn't be needed. Quoting mav@, "After
ct->ct_online == 0 there should be no new sessions attached to the target.
And if you see some problems abbout it, it may either mean that there are
some races where single cfiscsi_session_terminate(cs) call may be lost,
or as a guess while this thread was sleeping target was reenabbled and

ioctl frontend ports.
This revision introduces two changes to CTL:
- Changes the way options are passed to CTL_LUN_REQ and CTL_PORT_REQ ioctls.
Removes ctl_be_arg structure and associated logic and replaces it with
nv(3)-based logic for passing in and out arguments.
- Allows creating multiple ioctl frontend ports using either ctladm(8) or
ctld(8).
New frontend ports are represented by /dev/cam/ctl<pp>.<vp> nodes, eg /dev/cam/ctl5.3.
Those device nodes respond only to CTL_IO ioctl.
New command-line options for ctladm:
# creates new ioctl frontend port with using free pp and vp=0
ctladm port -c
# creates new ioctl frontend port with pp=10 and vp=0
ctladm port -c -O pp=10
# creates new ioctl frontend port with pp=11 and vp=12
ctladm port -c -O pp=11 -O vp=12
# removes port with number 4 (it's a "targ_port" number, not pp number)
ctladm port -r -p 4
New syntax for ctl.conf:
target ... {
port ioctl/<pp>
...
}
target ... {
port ioctl/<pp>/<vp>
...

The crash scenario goes like this: there's a thread waiting on "reinstate";
because it doesn't update the timeout counter it gets terminated by the
callout; at this point the maintenance thread starts the termination routine.
The first thread finishes waiting, proceeds to icl_conn_handoff(), and drops
the refcount, which allows the maintenance thread to free its resources. At
this point another thread receives a PDU. Boom.

Uses of mallocarray(9).
The use of mallocarray(9) has rocketed the required swap to build FreeBSD.
This is likely caused by the allocation size attributes which put extra pressure
on the compiler.
Given that most of these checks are superfluous we have to choose better
where to use mallocarray(9). We still have more uses of mallocarray(9) but
hopefully this is enough to bring swap usage to a reasonable level.
Reported by: wosch
PR: 225197
Focus on code where we are doing multiplications within malloc(9). None of
these ire likely to overflow, however the change is still useful as some
static checkers can benefit from the allocation attributes we use for
mallocarray.
This initial sweep only covers malloc(9) calls with M_NOWAIT. No good
reason but I started doing the changes before r327796 and at that time it
was convenient to make sure the sorrounding code could handle NULL values.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
