in order to improve user-friendliness when a system has multiple disks
encrypted using the same passphrase.
When examining a new GELI provider, the most recently used passphrase
will be attempted before prompting for a passphrase; and whenever a
passphrase is entered, it is cached for later reference. When the root
disk is mounted, the cached passphrase is zeroed (triggered by the
"mountroot" event), in order to minimize the possibility of leakage
of passphrases. (After root is mounted, the "taste and prompt for
passphrases on the console" code path is disabled, so there is no
potential for a passphrase to be stored after the zeroing takes place.)
This behaviour can be disabled by setting kern.geom.eli.boot_passcache=0.

partitions of types other than "freebsd-boot" (in particular, "efi").
This allows the removal of some nasty hacks for supporting PowerPC systems,
in particular aliasing freebsd-boot to apple-boot on APM and an IBM-specific
code on MBR.
This changes the installer to use the correct names, which also breaks a
degeneracy in the meaning of "freebsd-boot" that allows the addition
of support for some newer IBM systems that can boot from GPT in addition to
MBR. Since I have no idea how to detect which those systems are, leave
the default on IBM PPC systems as MBR for now.
These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,
such as:
1) no output from sysctl(8)
2) erroneously returning ENOMEM with tools like truss(1)

there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

The purpose of the PMBR is to have the disk appear in use to GPT
unaware utilities (like fdisk). However, if the PMBR has been changed
by a GPT unaware utlity then we must assume that this was deliberate
(as it involved removal of the special slice) and we should not treat
the unmodified GPT-specific sectors as being valid. By lowering the
probe priority in that case, the MBR scheme will take precedence and
the kernel will end up using the MBR and not the GPT. We will still
use the GPT if the kernel does not support the MBR scheme.

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
is considered such as; is the device backing the vdev a rotating media device.
This results in performance increases across the board as well as significant
increases for predominantly streaming loads and for configurations which don't
have evenly performing devices.

1 x SSD from a basic test running multiple parrallel dd's.

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,
MAP, FLASHMAP, etc).
To declare direct completion capability disk(9) KPI got new flag equivalent
to G_PF_DIRECT_SEND -- DISKFLAG_DIRECT_COMPLETION. da(4) and ada(4) disk
drivers got it set now thanks to earlier CAM locking work.
This change more then twice increases peak block storage performance on
systems with manu CPUs, together with earlier CAM locking changes reaching
more then 1 million IOPS (512 byte raw reads from 16 SATA SSDs on 4 HBAs to
256 user-level threads).

If not global workaroung in GEOM, that could even cause destruction with

The previous method was to set the D_UNMAPPED_IO flag in the cdevsw
for the driver. The problem with this is that in many cases (e.g.
sa(4)) there may be some instances of the driver that can handle
unmapped I/O and some that can't. The isp(4) driver can handle
unmapped I/O, but the esp(4) driver currently cannot. The cdevsw
is shared among all driver instances.
So instead of setting a flag on the cdevsw, set a flag on the cdev.
This allows drivers to indicate support for unmapped I/O on a
per-instance basis.
sys/conf.h: Remove the D_UNMAPPED_IO cdevsw flag and replace it
with an SI_UNMAPPED cdev flag.
kern_physio.c: Look at the cdev SI_UNMAPPED flag to determine
whether or not a particular driver can handle
unmapped I/O.
geom_dev.c: Set the SI_UNMAPPED flag for all GEOM cdevs.
Since GEOM will create a temporary mapping when
needed, setting SI_UNMAPPED unconditionally will
work.
Remove the D_UNMAPPED_IO flag.
nvme_ns.c: Set the SI_UNMAPPED flag on cdevs created here
if NVME_UNMAPPED_BIO_SUPPORT is enabled.
vfs_aio.c: In aio_qphysio(), check the SI_UNMAPPED flag on a
