default. At least initially, the feature to support multiple TCP stacks is
aimed at supporting advanced use cases and TCP development, but it is not
necessarily aimed at a wide audience. Therefore, there is no need to build
and install the extra TCP stacks by default. Instead, the people who are
using or developing this functionality can add the extra option to build/
install the extra TCP stacks.
However, we do want to build the extra TCP stacks as part of test builds
(e.g. LINT or tinderbox) to ensure that developers who are testing their
changes will know that their changes do not break the additional TCP
stack modules.
After this change, a user will need to add WITH_EXTRA_TCP_STACKS=1 to
make.conf or the kernel config in order to build the extra TCP modules.

This is the initial framework to call into the MCI HAL routines and drive
the basic state engine.
The MCI bluetooth coex model uses a command channel between wlan and
bluetooth, rather than a 2-wire or 3-wire signaling protocol to control things.
This means the wlan and bluetooth chip exchange a lot more information and
signaling, even at the per-packet level. The NICs in question can share
the input LNA and output PA on the die, so they absolutely can't stomp
on each other in a silly fashion. It also allows for the bluetooth side
to signal when profiles come and go, so the driver can take appropriate
control. There's also the possibility of dynamic bluetooth/wlan duty cycle
control which I haven't yet really played with.
It configures things up with a static "wlan wins everything" coexistence,
configures up the available 2GHz channel map for bluetooth, sets a static
duty cycle for bluetooth/wifi traffic priority and drives the basics needed to
keep the MCI HAL code happy.
It doesn't do any actual coexistence except to default to "wlan wins everything",
which at least demonstrates that things do indeed work. Bluetooth inquiry frames
still trump wifi (including beacons), so that demonstrates things really do
indeed seem to work.
Tested:
* AR9462 (WB222), STA mode + bt
* QCA9565 (WB335), STA mode + bt
TODO:
* .. the rest of coexistence. yes, bluetooth, not people. That stuff's hard.
* It doesn't do the initial BT side calibration, which requires a WLAN chip
reset. I'll fix up the reset path a bit more first before I enable that.
* The 1-ant and 2-ant configuration bits aren't being set correctly in
if_ath_btcoex.c - I'll dig into that and fix it in a subsequent commit.
* It's not enabled by default for WB222/WB225 even though I believe it now
can be - I'll chase that up in a subsequent commit.

Support for the new hashing algorithms in ZFS was introduced in r289422
However it was disconnected because FreeBSD lacked implementations of
SHA-512 (truncated to 256 bits), and Skein.
These implementations were introduced in r300921 and r300966 respectively
This commit connects them to ZFS and enabled these new checksum algorithms
This new algorithms are not supported by the boot blocks, so do not use them
on your root dataset if you boot from ZFS.

In the past we've gotten away with using the arch name as a proxy for FDT
support in makefile conditional logic, but now mips has some platforms with
fdt support and some without and we need a more direct test.

Implementing AQM in FreeBSD

Overview
Recent years have seen a resurgence of interest in better managing
the depth of bottleneck queues in routers, switches and other places
that get congested. Solutions include transport protocol enhancements
at the end-hosts (such as delay-based or hybrid congestion control
schemes) and active queue management (AQM) schemes applied within
bottleneck queues.
The notion of AQM has been around since at least the late 1990s
(e.g. RFC 2309). In recent years the proliferation of oversized
buffers in all sorts of network devices (aka bufferbloat) has
stimulated keen community interest in four new AQM schemes -- CoDel,
FQ-CoDel, PIE and FQ-PIE.
The IETF AQM working group is looking to document these schemes,
and independent implementations are a corner-stone of the IETF's
process for confirming the clarity of publicly available protocol
descriptions. While significant development work on all three schemes
has occured in the Linux kernel, there is very little in FreeBSD.
Project Goals
This project began in late 2015, and aims to design and implement
functionally-correct versions of CoDel, FQ-CoDel, PIE and FQ_PIE
in FreeBSD (with code BSD-licensed as much as practical). We have
chosen to do this as extensions to FreeBSD's ipfw/dummynet firewall
and traffic shaper. Implementation of these AQM schemes in FreeBSD
will:
* Demonstrate whether the publicly available documentation is
sufficient to enable independent, functionally equivalent implementations
* Provide a broader suite of AQM options for sections the networking
community that rely on FreeBSD platforms
Program Members:
* Rasool Al Saadi (developer)
* Grenville Armitage (project lead)

This patchset adds support to bhnd_chipc for sharing SYS_RES_MEMORY
resources with its children, allowing us to hang devices off of
bhnd_chipc that rely on access to a subset of the device register space
that bhnd_chipc itself must also allocate.
We could avoid most of this heavy lifting if RF_SHAREABLE+SYS_RES_MEMORY
wasn't limited to use with allocations at the same size/offset.
As a work-around, I implemented something similar to vga_pci.c, which
implements similar reference counting of of PCI BAR resources for its
children.
With these changes, chipc will use reference counting of SYS_RES_MEMORY
allocation/activation requests, to decide when to allocate/activate/
deactivate/release resources from the parent bhnd(4) bus.
The requesting child device is allocated a new resource from chipc's
rman, pointing to (possibly a subregion of) the refcounted bhnd resources
allocated by chipc.
Other resource types are just passed directly to the parent bhnd bus;
RF_SHAREABLE works just fine with IRQs.
I also lifted the SPROM device code out into a common driver, since this
now allows me to hang simple subclasses off of a common driver off of both
bhndb_pci and bhnd_chipc.
Tested:
* (landonf) Tested against BCM4331 and BCM4312, confirmed that SPROM still
attaches and can be queried.

This adds a BHND_BUS_GET_ATTACH_TYPE(); the primary use-case is to let
chipc make a coarse-grained determination as to whether UART, SPI, etc
drivers ought to be attached, and on fullmac devices, whether a real
CPU driver ought to be skipped for the ARM core, etc.

* The default kernel and options won't build the GPL PHY bits;
* bwn(4) defaults to building as a module anyway!;
* If BWN_GPL_PHY is specified in the config file, and you uncomment
the GPL PHY bits in the module Makefile, you'll get a working
N-PHY.
This is specifically designed to be obtuse for now, as I don't want
to flip it on by default. It's easy enough for people to flip on
and build, and it's a module so the default GENERIC kernel won't be
GPL tainted.
I'll have to add an actual HAL layer that allows the GPL PHY to be loaded
before if_bwn so it can be "magic", but that'll come later.
Tested:
* BCM4321 11abg NIC, STA mode
Now that we've got access to SPROM and can access board identification,
this implements all known remaining hardware work-arounds for the bhnd(4)
PCI and PCIe-G1 cores operating endpoint mode.
Additionally, this adds an initial set of skeleton PCIe-G2 hostb and pcib
drivers, required by fullmac and newer softmac devices.
