Now driver tracks jack presence detection status for every CODEC pin. For
playback associations, when configured, that information, same as before,
can be used to automatically redirect audio to headphones. Also same as
before, these events are used to track digital display connection status
and fetch ELD. Now in addition to that driver uses that information to
automatically switch recording source of the mixer to the connected input.
When there are devices with no jack detection and with one both connected,
last ones will have the precedence. As result, on most laptops after boot
internal microphone should be automatically selected. But if external one
(for example, headset) connected, it will be selected automatically.
When external mic disconnected, internal one will be selected again.
Automatic recording source selection is enabled by default now to make
recording work out of the box without touching mixer. But it can be
disabled or limited only to attach time using hint.pcm.X.rec.autosrc loader

- Huge old hdac driver was split into three independent pieces: HDA
controller driver (hdac), HDA CODEC driver (hdacc) and HDA sudio function
driver (hdaa).
- Support for multichannel recording was added. Now, as specification
defines, driver checks input associations for pins with sequence numbers
14 and 15, and if found (usually) -- works as before, mixing signals
together. If it doesn't, it configures input association as multichannel.
- Signal tracer was improved to look for cases where several DACs/ADCs in
CODEC can work with the same audio signal. If such case found, driver
registers additional playback/record stream (channel) for the pcm device.
- New controller streams reservation mechanism was implemented. That
allows to have more pcm devices then streams supported by the controller
(usually 4 in each direction). Now it limits only number of simultaneously
transferred audio streams, that is rarely reachable and properly reported
if happens.
- Codec pins and GPIO signals configuration was exported via set of
writable sysctls. Another sysctl dev.hdaa.X.reconfig allows to trigger
driver reconfiguration in run-time.
- Driver now decodes pins location and connector type names. In some cases
it allows to hint user where on the system case connectors, related to the
pcm device, are located. Number of channels supported by pcm device,
reported now (if it is not 2), should also make search easier.

Document the current semantics of the 'quiet' command prefix

Fix dhclient rc.d script: it should not call err() for
non-DHCP-enabled interface when it is called from devd, because the
latter just blindly calls 'service dhclient quietstart' on each "link
up" event.
Since the 'quietstart' will silence the message "Cannot 'start' <foo>.
Set <foo>_enable to YES in /etc/rc.conf or use 'onestart' instead of
'start'." and running dhclient on the non-DHCP-enabled interface is
the same thing as running the service <foo> without <foo>_enable set,

I was considering adding it to libc as well, but last minute I thought
it would be good enough to add it to libkern exclusively. I forgot to
rename the man page and hook it up.
It seems two of the file system drivers we have in the tree, namely ufs
and ext3, use a function called `skpc()'. The meaning of this function
does not seem to be documented in FreeBSD, but it turns out one needs to
be a VAX programmer to understand what it does.
SPKC is an instruction on the VAX that does the opposite of memchr(). It
searches for the non-equal character. Add a new function called
memcchr() to the tree that has the following advantages over skpc():
- It has a name that makes more sense than skpc(). Just like strcspn()
matches the complement of strspn(), memcchr() is the complement of
memchr().
- It is faster than skpc(). Similar to our strlen() in libc, it compares
entire words, instead of single bytes. It seems that for this routine
this yields a sixfold performance increase on amd64.
- It has a man page.
aspect of time stamp configuration per interface rather than per BPF
descriptor. Prior to this, the order in which BPF devices were opened and the
per descriptor time stamp configuration settings could cause non-deterministic
and unintended behaviour with respect to time stamping. With the new scheme, a
BPF attached interface's tscfg sysctl entry can be set to "default", "none",
"fast", "normal" or "external". Setting "default" means use the system default
option (set with the net.bpf.tscfg.default sysctl), "none" means do not
generate time stamps for tapped packets, "fast" means generate time stamps for
tapped packets using a hz granularity system clock read, "normal" means
generate time stamps for tapped packets using a full timecounter granularity
system clock read and "external" (currently unimplemented) means use the time
stamp provided with the packet from an underlying source.
- Utilise the recently introduced sysclock_getsnapshot() and
sysclock_snap2bintime() KPIs to ensure the system clock is only read once per
packet, regardless of the number of BPF descriptors and time stamp formats
requested. Use the per BPF attached interface time stamp configuration to
control if sysclock_getsnapshot() is called and whether the system clock read
is fast or normal. The per BPF descriptor time stamp configuration is then
used to control how the system clock snapshot is converted to a bintime by
sysclock_snap2bintime().
- Remove all FAST related BPF descriptor flag variants. Performing a "fast"
read of the system clock is now controlled per BPF attached interface using
the net.bpf.tscfg sysctl tree.
- Update the bpf.4 man page.

7.x, 8.x and 9.x with pf(4) imports: pfsync(4) should suppress CARP
preemption, while it is running its bulk update.
However, reimplement the feature in more elegant manner, that is
partially inspired by newer OpenBSD:
- Rename term "suppression" to "demotion", to match with OpenBSD.
- Keep a global demotion factor, that can be raised by several
conditions, for now these are:
- interface goes down
- carp(4) has problems with ip_output() or ip6_output()
- pfsync performs bulk update
- Unlike in OpenBSD the demotion factor isn't a counter, but
is actual value added to advskew. The adjustment values for
particular error conditions are also configurable, and their
defaults are maximum advskew value, so a single failure bumps
demotion to maximum. This is for POLA compatibility, and should
satisfy most users.
- Demotion factor is a writable sysctl, so user can do
foot shooting, if he desires to.
from scratch, copying needed functionality from the old implemenation
on demand, with a thorough review of all code. The main change is that
interface layer has been removed from the CARP. Now redundant addresses
are configured exactly on the interfaces, they run on.
The CARP configuration itself is, as before, configured and read via
SIOCSVH/SIOCGVH ioctls. A new prefix created with SIOCAIFADDR or
SIOCAIFADDR_IN6 may now be configured to a particular virtual host id,
which makes the prefix redundant.
ifconfig(8) semantics has been changed too: now one doesn't need
to clone carpXX interface, he/she should directly configure a vhid
on a Ethernet interface.
To supply vhid data from the kernel to an application the getifaddrs(8)
function had been changed to pass ifam_data with each address. [1]
The new implementation definitely closes all PRs related to carp(4)
being an interface, and may close several others. It also allows
to run a single redundant IP per interface.
Big thanks to Bjoern Zeeb for his help with inet6 part of patch, for
idea on using ifam_data and for several rounds of reviewing!

the policy used for all of userspace code.

curthread-accessing part of mtx_{,un}lock(9) when using a r210623-style
curthread implementation on sparc64, crashing the kernel in its early
cycles as PCPU isn't set up, yet (and can't be set up as OFW is one of the
things we need for that, which leads to a chicken-and-egg problem). What
happens is that due to the fact that the idea of r210623 actually is to
allow the compiler to cache invocations of curthread, it factors out
obtaining curthread needed for both mtx_lock(9) and mtx_unlock(9) to
before the branch based on kobj_mutex_inited when compiling the kernel
without the debugging options. So change kobj_class_compile_static(9)
to just never acquire kobj_mtx, effectively restricting it to its
documented use, and add a kobj_init_static(9) for initializing objects
using a class compiled with the former and that also avoids using mutex(9)
(and malloc(9)). Also assert in both of these functions that they are
used in their intended way only.
While at it, inline kobj_register_method() and kobj_unregister_method()
as there wasn't much point for factoring them out in the first place
and so that a reader of the code has to figure out the locking for
fewer functions missing a KOBJ_ASSERT.

If a selinfo object is recorded (via selrecord()) and then it is
quickly destroyed, with the waiters missing the opportunity to awake,
at the next iteration they will find the selinfo object destroyed,
causing a PF#.
That happens because the selinfo interface has no way to drain the
waiters before to destroy the registered selinfo object. Also this
race is quite rare to get in practice, because it would require a
selrecord(), a poll request by another thread and a quick destruction
of the selrecord()'ed selinfo object.
Fix this by adding the seldrain() routine which should be called
before to destroy the selinfo objects (in order to avoid such case),
and fix the present cases where it might have already been called.
Sometimes, the context is safe enough to prevent this type of race,
like it happens in device drivers which installs selinfo objects on
poll callbacks. There, the destruction of the selinfo object happens
at driver detach time, when all the filedescriptors should be already
closed, thus there cannot be a race.
For this case, mfi(4) device driver can be set as an example, as it
implements a full correct logic for preventing this from happening.
