Historically, GEOM utilities (gpart(8), gstripe(8), gmirror(8),
etc) used the gctl_error() routine to report errors. If they called
gctl_error() they would exit with EXIT_FAILURE, otherwise they would
return with EXIT_SUCCESS. If they used gctl_error() to output an
informational message, for example when run with the -v (verbose)
option, they would mistakenly exit with EXIT_FAILURE. A further
limitation of the gctl_error() function was that it could only be
called once. Messages from any additional calls to gctl_error()
would be silently discarded.
To resolve these problems a new function, gctl_msg() has been added.
It can be called multiple times to output multiple messages. It
also has an additional errno argument which should be zero if it is
an informational message or an errno value (EINVAL, EBUSY, etc) if
it is an error. When done the gctl_post_messages() function should
be called to indicate that all messages have been posted. If any
of the messages had a non-zero errno, the utility will EXIT_FAILURE.
If only informational messages (with zero errno) were posted, the
utility will EXIT_SUCCESS.

Traditionally the GEOM's primary channel of information from kernel to
user-space was confxml, fetched by libgeom through kern.geom.confxml
sysctl. It is convenient and informative, representing full state of
GEOM in a single XML document. But problems start to arise on systems
with hundreds of disks, where the full confxml size reaches many
megabytes, taking significant time to first write it and then parse.
This patch introduces alternative solution, allowing to fetch much
smaller XML document, subset of the full confxml, limited to 64KB and
representing only one specified geom and optionally its parents. It
uses existing GEOM control interface, extended with new "getxml" verb.
In case of any error, such as the buffer overflow, it just transparently
falls back to traditional full confxml. This patch uses the new API in
user-space GEOM tools where it is possible.

The gctl_error() function provides GEOM modules with the ability
to report only a single message. When running with the verbose
flag, commands that handle multiple devices may want to report a
message for each of the devices on which it operates. This commit
adds the gctl_msg() function that can be called multiple times
to post messages. When finished issuing messages, the application
must either call gctl_post_messages() or call gctl_error() to cause
the messages to be reported to the calling process.

The alias needs to be part of the provider instead of the geom to work
properly. To bind the DEV geom, we need to look at the provider's names and
aliases and create the dev entries from there. If this lives in the GEOM, then
it won't propigate down the tree properly. Remove it from geom, add it provider.
Update geli, gmountver, gnop, gpart, and guzip to use it, which handles the bulk
of the uses in FreeBSD. I think this is all the providers that create a new name
based on their parent's name.
Those counters were abused for decade to workaround broken orphanization
process in different classes by delaying the call while there are active
requests. But from one side it did not close all the races, while from
another was quite expensive on SMP due to trashing twice per request cache
lines of consumer and provider and requiring locks. It lost its sense
after I manually went through all the GEOM classes in base and made
orphanization wait for either provider close or request completion.
Consumer counters are still used under INVARIANTS to detect premature
consumer close and detach. Provider counters are removed completely.

This code was not actively maintained since it was introduced 10 years ago.
It lacks support for many later GEOM features, such as direct dispatch,

remaining use of GEOM nstart/nend request counters, used there to implement
live insertion/removal, questionable by itself. Plus, as number of people

limited information about layers both above and below it, required for

The problem is that g_access() must be called with the GEOM topology
lock held. And that gives a false impression that the lock is indeed
held across the call. But this isn't always true because many classes,
ZVOL being one of the many, need to drop the lock. It's either to
perform an I/O on the first open or to acquire a different lock (like in
g_mirror_access).
That, of course, can break many assumptions. For example,
g_slice_access() adds an extra exclusive count on the first open. As
described above, an underlying geom may drop the topology lock and that
would open a race with another thread that would also request another
extra exclusive count. In general, two consumers may be granted
incompatible accesses.
To avoid this problem the code is changed to mark a geom with special
flag before calling its access method and clear the flag afterwards. If
another thread sees that flag, then it means that the topology lock has
been dropped (either by the geom in question or downstream from it), so
it is not safe to make another access call. So, the second thread would
use g_topology_sleep() to wait until the flag is cleared and only then
would it proceed with the access.

This change includes support for SCSI SMR drives (which conform to the
Zoned Block Commands or ZBC spec) and ATA SMR drives (which conform to
the Zoned ATA Command Set or ZAC spec) behind SAS expanders.
This includes full management support through the GEOM BIO interface, and
through a new userland utility, zonectl(8), and through camcontrol(8).
This is now ready for filesystems to use to detect and manage zoned drives.
(There is no work in progress that I know of to use this for ZFS or UFS, if
anyone is interested, let me know and I may have some suggestions.)
Also, improve ATA command passthrough and dispatch support, both via ATA
and ATA passthrough over SCSI.
Also, add support to camcontrol(8) for the ATA Extended Power Conditions
feature set. You can now manage ATA device power states, and set various
idle time thresholds for a drive to enter lower power states.
Note that this change cannot be MFCed in full, because it depends on
changes to the struct bio API that break compatilibity. In order to
avoid breaking the stable API, only changes that don't touch or depend on
the struct bio changes can be merged. For example, the camcontrol(8)
changes don't depend on the new bio API, but zonectl(8) and the probe
changes to the da(4) and ada(4) drivers do depend on it.
Also note that the SMR changes have not yet been tested with an actual
SCSI ZBC device, or a SCSI to ATA translation layer (SAT) that supports
ZBC to ZAC translation. I have not yet gotten a suitable drive or SAT
layer, so any testing help would be appreciated. These changes have been
tested with Seagate Host Aware SATA drives attached to both SAS and SATA
controllers. Also, I do not have any SATA Host Managed devices, and I
suspect that it may take additional (hopefully minor) changes to support
them.
Thanks to Seagate for supplying the test hardware and answering questions.

The da(4) driver supports SCSI ZBC devices, as well as ATA ZAC

SAT-4 spec, most SATA drives will be supported via ATA commands
sent via the SCSI ATA PASS-THROUGH command. The da(4) driver will

reasons, but will use the ATA PASS-THROUGH interface to the ZAC

building functions. Note that these have return values, unlike
almost all other CCB building functions in CAM. The reason is
that they can fail, depending upon the particular combination
of input parameters. The primary failure case is if the user
wants NCQ, but fails to specify additional CDB storage. NCQ
requires using the 32-byte version of the SCSI ATA PASS-THROUGH
command, and the current CAM CDB size is 16 bytes.

ahci_setup_fis() previously set the top bits of the sector count

those bits, and we don't implement that further up the stack.
But, for SEND and RECEIVE FPDMA QUEUED, the subcommand is in that

The existing algorithm selects a preferred leaf vdev based on offset of the zio
request modulo the number of members in the mirror. It assumes the devices are
of equal performance and that spreading the requests randomly over both drives
will be sufficient to saturate them. In practice this results in the leaf vdevs
being under utilized.
The new algorithm takes into the following additional factors:
* Load of the vdevs (number outstanding I/O requests)
* The locality of last queued I/O vs the new I/O request.
Within the locality calculation additional knowledge about the underlying vdev

When safety requirements are met, it allows to avoid passing I/O requests
to GEOM g_up/g_down thread, executing them directly in the caller context.
That allows to avoid CPU bottlenecks in g_up/g_down threads, plus avoid
several context switches per I/O.
The defined now safety requirements are:
- caller should not hold any locks and should be reenterable;
- callee should not depend on GEOM dual-threaded concurency semantics;
- on the way down, if request is unmapped while callee doesn't support it,
the context should be sleepable;
- kernel thread stack usage should be below 50%.
To keep compatibility with GEOM classes not meeting above requirements
new provider and consumer flags added:
- G_CF_DIRECT_SEND -- consumer code meets caller requirements (request);
- G_CF_DIRECT_RECEIVE -- consumer code meets callee requirements (done);
- G_PF_DIRECT_SEND -- provider code meets caller requirements (done);
- G_PF_DIRECT_RECEIVE -- provider code meets callee requirements (request).
Capable GEOM class can set them, allowing direct dispatch in cases where
it is safe. If any of requirements are not met, request is queued to
g_up or g_down thread same as before.
Such GEOM classes were reviewed and updated to support direct dispatch:
CONCAT, DEV, DISK, GATE, MD, MIRROR, MULTIPATH, NOP, PART, RAID, STRIPE,
VFS, ZERO, ZFS::VDEV, ZFS::ZVOL, all classes based on g_slice KPI (LABEL,

to G_PF_DIRECT_SEND -- DISKFLAG_DIRECT_COMPLETION. da(4) and ada(4) disk

This change more then twice increases peak block storage performance on

flag by the consumer. For unmapped buffer, no KVA reservation is
performed at all. The consumer might request unmapped buffer which
does have a KVA reserve, to manually map it without recursing into
buffer cache and blocking, with the GB_KVAALLOC flag.
When the mapped buffer is requested and unmapped buffer already
exists, the cache performs an upgrade, possibly reusing the KVA
reservation.
Unmapped buffer is translated into unmapped bio in g_vfs_strategy().
Unmapped bio carry a pointer to the vm_page_t array, offset and length
instead of the data pointer. The provider which processes the bio
should explicitely specify a readiness to accept unmapped bio,
otherwise g_down geom thread performs the transient upgrade of the bio
request by mapping the pages into the new bio_transient_map KVA
submap.
The bio_transient_map submap claims up to 10% of the buffer map, and
the total buffer_map + bio_transient_map KVA usage stays the
same. Still, it could be manually tuned by kern.bio_transient_maxcnt
tunable, in the units of the transient mappings. Eventually, the
bio_transient_map could be removed after all geom classes and drivers
can accept unmapped i/o requests.
Unmapped support can be turned off by the vfs.unmapped_buf_allowed
tunable, disabling which makes the buffer (or cluster) creation
requests to ignore GB_UNMAPPED and GB_KVAALLOC flags. Unmapped
buffers are only enabled by default on the architectures where
pmap_copy_page() was implemented and tested.
In the rework, filesystem metadata is not the subject to maxbufspace
limit anymore. Since the metadata buffers are always mapped, the
buffers still have to fit into the buffer map, which provides a
reasonable (but practically unreachable) upper bound on it. The
non-metadata buffer allocations, both mapped and unmapped, is
accounted against maxbufspace, as before. Effectively, this means that
the maxbufspace is forced on mapped and unmapped buffers separately.
The pre-patch bufspace limiting code did not worked, because
buffer_map fragmentation does not allow the limit to be reached.
By Jeff Roberson request, the getnewbuf() function was split into
smaller single-purpose functions.

It includes three parts:
1) Modifications to CAM to detect media media changes and report them to
disk(9) layer. For modern SATA (and potentially UAS) devices it utilizes
Asynchronous Notification mechanism to receive events from hardware.
Active polling with TEST UNIT READY commands with 3 seconds period is used
for incapable hardware. After that both CD and DA drivers work the same way,
detecting two conditions: "NOT READY: Medium not present" after medium was
detected previously, and "UNIT ATTENTION: Not ready to ready change, medium
may have changed". First one reported to disk(9) as media removal, second
as media insert/change. To reliably receive second event new
AC_UNIT_ATTENTION async added to make UAs broadcasted to all periphs by
generic error handling code in cam_periph_error().
2) Modifications to GEOM core to handle media remove and change events.
Media removal handled by spoiling all consumers attached to the provider.
Media change event also schedules provider retaste after spoiling to probe
new media. New flag G_CF_ORPHAN was added to consumers to reflect that
consumer is in process of destruction. It allows retaste to create new
geom instance of the same class, while previous one is still dying.
3) Modifications to some GEOM classes: DEV -- to report media change
events to devd; VFS -- to handle spoiling same as orphan to prevent
accessing replaced media. PART class already handles spoiling alike to
orphan.

a da(4) instance going away while GEOM is still probing it.
In this case, the GEOM disk class instance has been created by
disk_create(), and the taste of the disk is queued in the GEOM
event queue.
While that event is queued, the da(4) instance goes away. When the
open call comes into the da(4) driver, it dereferences the freed
(but non-NULL) peripheral pointer provided by GEOM, which results
in a panic.
The solution is to add a callback to the GEOM disk code that is
called when all of its resources are cleaned up. This is
implemented inside GEOM by adding an optional callback that is
called when all consumers have detached from a provider, and the
provider is about to be deleted.
scsi_cd.c,
scsi_da.c: In the register routine for the cd(4) and da(4)
routines, acquire a reference to the CAM peripheral
instance just before we call disk_create().
Use the new GEOM disk d_gone() callback to register
a callback (dadiskgonecb()/cddiskgonecb()) that
decrements the peripheral reference count once GEOM
has finished cleaning up its resources.
In the cd(4) driver, clean up open and close
behavior slightly. GEOM makes sure we only get one
open() and one close call, so there is no need to
set an open flag and decrement the reference count
if we are not the first open.
In the cd(4) driver, use cam_periph_release_locked()
in a couple of error scenarios to avoid extra mutex
calls.
geom.h: Add a new, optional, providergone callback that
is called when a provider is about to be deleted.
geom_disk.h: Add a new d_gone() callback to the GEOM disk
interface.
Bump the DISK_VERSION to version 2. This probably
should have been done after a couple of previous
changes, especially the addition of the d_getattr()
callback.
geom_disk.c: Add a providergone callback for the disk class,
g_disk_providergone(), that calls the user's
d_gone() callback if it exists.
Bump the DISK_VERSION to 2.
geom_subr.c: In g_destroy_provider(), call the providergone
callback if it has been provided.
In g_new_geomf(), propagate the class's
providergone callback to the new geom instance.
blkfront.c: Callers of disk_create() are supposed to pass in
DISK_VERSION, not an explicit disk API version
number. Update the blkfront driver to do that.
disk.9: Update the disk(9) man page to include information
on the new d_gone() callback, as well as the
previously added d_getattr() callback, d_descr
field, and HBA PCI ID fields.

Introduce new type of BIO_GETATTR -- GEOM::setstate, used to inform lower
GEOM about state of it's providers from the point of upper layers.
Make geom_disk use led(4) subsystem to illuminate states in such fashion:
FAILED - "1" (on), REBUILD - "f5" (slow blink), RESYNC - "f1" (fast blink),
ACTIVE - "0" (off).
LED name should be set for each disk via kern.geom.disk.%s.led sysctl.
Later disk API could be extended to allow disk driver to report this info
in custom way via it's own facilities.
Change BIO_GETATTR("GEOM::kerneldump") API to make set_dumper() called by
consumer (geom_dev) instead of provider (geom_disk). This allows any geom
