The jedec_ts(4) driver has been marked as deprecated in stable/11, and is
now being removed from -HEAD. Add a notice in UPDATING, and update the few
remaining references (regarding jedec_dimm(4)'s compatibility and history)
to reflect the fact that jedec_ts(4) is now deleted.

imcsmb(4) provides smbus(4) support for the SMBus controller functionality
in the integrated Memory Controllers (iMCs) embedded in Intel Sandybridge-
Xeon, Ivybridge-Xeon, Haswell-Xeon, and Broadwell-Xeon CPUs. Each CPU
implements one or more iMCs, depending on the number of cores; each iMC
implements two SMBus controllers (iMC-SMBs).
*** IMPORTANT NOTE ***
Because motherboard firmware or the BMC might try to use the iMC-SMBs for
monitoring DIMM temperatures and/or managing an NVDIMM, the driver might
need to temporarily disable those functions, or take a hardware interlock,
before using the iMC-SMBs. Details on how to do this may vary from board to
board, and the procedure may be proprietary. It is strongly suggested that
anyone wishing to use this driver contact their motherboard vendor, and
modify the driver as described in the manual page and in the driver itself.
(For what it's worth, the driver as-is has been tested on various SuperMicro
motherboards.)

the iicbus module for FDT-based systems.
The primary motivation for this is that host controller drivers which
declare DRIVER_MODULE(ofw_iicbus, thisdriver, etc, etc) now only need a
single MODULE_DEPEND(thisdriver, ofw_iicbus) for runtime linking to resolve
all the symbols. With ofw_iicbus and iicbus in separate modules, drivers
would need to declare a MODULE_DEPEND() on both, because symbol lookup is
non-recursive through the dependency chain. Requiring a driver to have
MODULE_DEPENDS() on both amounts to requiring the drivers to understand the
kobj inheritence details of how ofw_iicbus is implemented, which seems like
something they shouldn't have to know (and could even change some day).
Also, this is somewhat analogous to how the drivers get built when compiled
into the kernel. You don't have to ask for ofw_iicbus separately, it just
gets built in along with iicbus when option FDT is in effect.
A super-set of the functionality of jedec_ts(4). jedec_dimm(4) reports asset
information (Part Number, Serial Number) encoded in the "Serial Presence
Detect" (SPD) data on JEDEC DDR3 and DDR4 DIMMs. It also calculates and
reports the memory capacity of the DIMM, in megabytes. If the DIMM includes
a "Thermal Sensor On DIMM" (TSOD), the temperature is also reported.

- Add FDT probe code.
- Do i2c transfers with exclusive bus ownership.
- Use config_intrhook_oneshot() to defer chip setup because some i2c
busses can't do transfers without interrupts.
- Add a detach() routine.
- Add to module build.
This driver supports only basic timekeeping functionality. It completely
replaces the ds133x driver. It can also replace the ds1374 driver, but that
will take a few other changes in MIPS code and config, and will be committed
separately. It does NOT replace the existing ds1307 driver, which provides
access to some of the extended features on the 1307 chip, such as controlling
the square wave output signal. If both ds1307 and ds13rtc drivers are
present, the ds1307 driver will outbid and win control of the device.
This driver can be configured with FDT data, or by using hints on non-FDT
systems. In addition to the standard hints for i2c devices, it requires
a "chiptype" string of the form "dallas,ds13xx" where 'xx' is the chip id
(i.e., the same format as FDT compat strings).

Summary:
The hardware does not expose a classic SMBus interface.
Instead it has a lower level interface that can express a far richer
I2C protocol than what smbus offers. However, the interface does not
provide a way to explicitly generate the I2C stop and start conditions.
It's only possible to request that the stop condition is generated
after transferring the next byte in either direction. So, at least
one data byte must always be transferred.
Thus, some I2C sequences are impossible to generate, e.g., an equivalent
of smbus quick command (<start>-<slave addr>-<r/w bit>-<stop>).
At the same time isl(4) and cyapa(4) are moved to iicbus and now they use
iicbus_transfer for communication. Previously they used smbus_trans()
interface that is not defined by the SMBus protocol and was implemented
only by ig4(4). In fact, that interface was impossible to implement
for the typical SMBus controllers like intpm(4) or ichsmb(4) where
a type of the SMBus command must be programmed.
The plan is to remove smbus_trans() and all its uses.
As an aside, the smbus_trans() method deviates from the standard,
but perhaps backwards, FreeBSD convention of using 8-bit slave
addresses (shifted by 1 bit to the left). The method expects
7-bit addresses.
There is a user facing consequence of this change.
A user must now provide device hints for isl and cyapa that specify an iicbus to use
and a slave address on it.
On Chromebook hardware where isl and cyapa devices are commonly found
it is also possible to use a new chromebook_platform(4) driver that
automatically configures isl and cyapa devices. There is no need to
provide the device hints in that case,
Right now smbus(4) driver tries to discover all slaves on the bus.
That is very dangerous. Fortunately, the probing code uses smbus_trans()
to do its job, so it is really enabled for ig4 only.
The plan is to remove that auto-probing code and smbus_trans().

The driver currently supports chips that are fully compliant with the
JEDEC SPD / EEPROM / TS standard (JEDEC Standard 21-C,
TSE2002 Specification, frequenlty referred to as JEDEC JC 42.4).
Additionally some chips from STMicroelectronics are supported as well.
They are compliant except for their Device ID pattern.
Given the continued lack of any common sensor infrastructure, the driver
uses an ad-hoc sysctl to report the temperature.

Use MACHINE_CPUARCH in preference to MACHINE_ARCH. The former is the

on in the module build and were present since the original import. This
breaks soft power-off on the Asus A7V since it reprograms the SMBus base
address to a different one than the BIOS expects. A similar issue was
found in the alpm(4) module build.
