I fixed this in 1997, but the fix was over-engineered and fragile and
was broken in 2003 if not before. i386 parameters were copied to 8
other arches verbatim, mostly after they stopped working on i386, and
mostly without the large comment saying how the values were chosen on
i386. powerpc has a non-verbatim copy which just changes the uncritical
parameter and seems to add a sign extension bug to it.
Just treat negative offsets as offsets if they are no more negative than
-db_offset_max (default -64K), and remove all the broken parameters.
-64K is not very negative, but it is enough for frame and stack pointer
offsets since kernel stacks are small.
The over-engineering was mainly to go more negative than -64K for the
negative offset format, without affecting printing for more than a
single address.
Addresses in the top 64K of a (full 32-bit or 64-bit) address space
are now printed less well, but there aren't many interesting ones.
For arches that have many interesting ones very near the top (e.g.,
68k has interrupt vectors there), there would be no good limit for
the negative offset format and -64K is a good as anything.

Changes include modifications in kernel crash dump routines, dumpon(8) and
savecore(8). A new tool called decryptcore(8) was added.
A new DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O control was added to send a kernel crash dump
configuration in the diocskerneldump_arg structure to the kernel.
The old DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O control was renamed to DIOCSKERNELDUMP_FREEBSD11 for
backward ABI compatibility.
dumpon(8) generates an one-time random symmetric key and encrypts it using
an RSA public key in capability mode. Currently only AES-256-CBC is supported
but EKCD was designed to implement support for other algorithms in the future.
The public key is chosen using the -k flag. The dumpon rc(8) script can do this
automatically during startup using the dumppubkey rc.conf(5) variable. Once the
keys are calculated dumpon sends them to the kernel via DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O
control.
When the kernel receives the DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O control it generates a random
IV and sets up the key schedule for the specified algorithm. Each time the
kernel tries to write a crash dump to the dump device, the IV is replaced by
a SHA-256 hash of the previous value. This is intended to make a possible
differential cryptanalysis harder since it is possible to write multiple crash
dumps without reboot by repeating the following commands:
# sysctl debug.kdb.enter=1
db> call doadump(0)
db> continue
# savecore
A kernel dump key consists of an algorithm identifier, an IV and an encrypted
symmetric key. The kernel dump key size is included in a kernel dump header.
The size is an unsigned 32-bit integer and it is aligned to a block size.
The header structure has 512 bytes to match the block size so it was required to
make a panic string 4 bytes shorter to add a new field to the header structure.
If the kernel dump key size in the header is nonzero it is assumed that the
kernel dump key is placed after the first header on the dump device and the core
dump is encrypted.
Separate functions were implemented to write the kernel dump header and the
kernel dump key as they need to be unencrypted. The dump_write function encrypts
data if the kernel was compiled with the EKCD option. Encrypted kernel textdumps
are not supported due to the way they are constructed which makes it impossible
to use the CBC mode for encryption. It should be also noted that textdumps don't
contain sensitive data by design as a user decides what information should be
dumped.
savecore(8) writes the kernel dump key to a key.# file if its size in the header
is nonzero. # is the number of the current core dump.
decryptcore(8) decrypts the core dump using a private RSA key and the kernel
dump key. This is performed by a child process in capability mode.
If the decryption was not successful the parent process removes a partially
decrypted core dump.
Description on how to encrypt crash dumps was added to the decryptcore(8),
dumpon(8), rc.conf(5) and savecore(8) manual pages.
EKCD was tested on amd64 using bhyve and i386, mipsel and sparc64 using QEMU.
The feature still has to be tested on arm and arm64 as it wasn't possible to run
FreeBSD due to the problems with QEMU emulation and lack of hardware.

Add a pair of bus methods that can be used to "map" resources for direct
CPU access using bus_space(9). bus_map_resource() creates a mapping and
bus_unmap_resource() releases a previously created mapping. Mappings are
described by 'struct resource_map' object. Pointers to these objects can
be passed as the first argument to the bus_space wrapper API used for bus
resources.
Drivers that wish to map all of a resource using default settings
(for example, using uncacheable memory attributes) do not need to change.
However, drivers that wish to use non-default settings can now do so
without jumping through hoops.
First, an RF_UNMAPPED flag is added to request that a resource is not
implicitly mapped with the default settings when it is activated. This
permits other activation steps (such as enabling I/O or memory decoding
in a device's PCI command register) to be taken without creating a
mapping. Right now the AGP drivers don't set RF_ACTIVE to avoid using
up a large amount of KVA to map the AGP aperture on 32-bit platforms.
Once RF_UNMAPPED is supported on all platforms that support AGP this
can be changed to using RF_UNMAPPED with RF_ACTIVE instead.
Second, bus_map_resource accepts an optional structure that defines
additional settings for a given mapping.
For example, a driver can now request to map only a subset of a resource
instead of the entire range. The AGP driver could also use this to only
map the first page of the aperture (IIRC, it calls pmap_mapdev() directly
to map the first page currently). I will also eventually change the
PCI-PCI bridge driver to request mappings of the subset of the I/O window
resource on its parent side to create mappings for child devices rather
than passing child resources directly up to nexus to be mapped. This
also permits bridges that do address translation to request suitable
mappings from a resource on the "upper" side of the bus when mapping
resources on the "lower" side of the bus.
Another attribute that can be specified is an alternate memory attribute
for memory-mapped resources. This can be used to request a
Write-Combining mapping of a PCI BAR in an MI fashion. (Currently the
drivers that do this call pmap_change_attr() directly for x86 only.)
Note that this commit only adds the MI framework. Each platform needs
to add support for handling RF_UNMAPPED and thew new
bus_map/unmap_resource methods. Generally speaking, any drivers that
are calling rman_set_bustag() and rman_set_bushandle() need to be
updated.

Rescanning a PCI bus uses the following steps:
- Fetch the current set of child devices and save it in the 'devlist'
array.
- Allocate a parallel array 'unchanged' initalized with NULL pointers.
- Scan the bus checking each slot (and each function on slots with a
multifunction device).
- If a valid function is found, look for a matching device in the 'devlist'
array. If a device is found, save the pointer in the 'unchanged' array.
If a device is not found, add a new device.
- After the scan has finished, walk the 'devlist' array deleting any
devices that do not have a matching pointer in the 'unchanged' array.
- Finally, fetch an updated set of child devices and explicitly attach any
devices that are not present in the 'unchanged' array.

On some architectures, u_long isn't large enough for resource definitions.
Particularly, powerpc and arm allow 36-bit (or larger) physical addresses, but
type `long' is only 32-bit. This extends rman's resources to uintmax_t. With
this change, any resource can feasibly be placed anywhere in physical memory
(within the constraints of the driver).
Why uintmax_t and not something machine dependent, or uint64_t? Though it's
possible for uintmax_t to grow, it's highly unlikely it will become 128-bit on
32-bit architectures. 64-bit architectures should have plenty of RAM to absorb
the increase on resource sizes if and when this occurs, and the number of
resources on memory-constrained systems should be sufficiently small as to not
pose a drastic overhead. That being said, uintmax_t was chosen for source
clarity. If it's specified as uint64_t, all printf()-like calls would either
need casts to uintmax_t, or be littered with PRI*64 macros. Casts to uintmax_t
aren't horrible, but it would also bake into the API for
resource_list_print_type() either a hidden assumption that entries get cast to
uintmax_t for printing, or these calls would need the PRI*64 macros. Since
source code is meant to be read more often than written, I chose the clearest
path of simply using uintmax_t.

use the compiled-in static_kenv or the values provided by the MD code.
The routine also continues to serve its original purpose for mips; if a
non-zero buffer size is passed the routine installs the empty buffer ready
to accept kern_setenv() values. Now if the size is zero, the provided buffer
full of existing env data is installed. A NULL pointer can be passed if the
boot loader provides no env data; this allows the static env to be installed
if envmode is set to do so.
Most of the work here is a near-mechanical change to call the init function
instead of directly setting kern_envp. A notable exception is in xen/pv.c;
that code was originally installing a buffer full of preformatted env data
along with its non-zero size (like mips code does), which would have allowed
kern_setenv() calls to wipe out the preformatted data. Now it passes a zero
for the size so that the buffer of data it installs is treated as
non-writeable.
CPU_ISSET(), CPU_SET etc. in sparc64 asm. This approach has the
benefit of not clobbering %y, allowing to revert r222827 and
partially r222828.
- In r222828, CATR() already was changed to use the equivalent of
PCPU_GET(cpuid) instead of the MD module ID for KTR_CPU, so
belatedly also catch up with the C side of ktr(9). Originally,
in r203838 CATR() was moved away from directly reading the
module ID or equivalent as that became impractical with other
CPU types than USI/II supported. With r222828 in place, per-CPU
data generally is set up soon enough, though, that employing
PCPU things in ktr(9) also for use during early stages works.
- Unfortunately, an exception to the latter is the ktr(9) use
in pmap_bootstrap(), which actually is run so early that even
checking for bootverbose being set via the loader doesn't work.
Consequently, replace the ktr(9) use in pmap_bootstrap() with
OF_printf(9) and put it under #ifdef DIAGNOSTIC instead.

sv_sigsize and sv_sigtbl translate signal number from the FreeBSD

- While at it, arrange #ifndefs in kern_dump.c more intelligently; it's
rather confusing to have multiple competing and/or unused functions in
the kernel.
This will enable the elimination of a workaround in the USB driver that
artifically allocates buffers twice as big as they need to be (which
actually saves memory for very small buffers on the buggy platforms).
When deciding how to allocate a dma buffer, armv4, armv6, mips, and
x86/iommu all correctly check for the tag alignment <= maxsize as enabling
simple uma/malloc based allocation. Powerpc, sparc64, x86/bounce, and
arm64/bounce were all checking for alignment < maxsize; on those platforms
when alignment was equal to the max size it would fall back to page-based
allocators even for very small buffers.
This change makes all platforms use the <= check. It should be noted that
on all platforms other than arm[v6] and mips, this check is relying on
undocumented behavior in malloc(9) that if you allocate a block of a given
size it will be aligned to the next larger power-of-2 boundary. There is
nothing in the malloc(9) man page that makes that explicit promise (but the
busdma code has been relying on this behavior all along so I guess it works).
Arm and mips code uses the allocator in kern/subr_busdma_buffalloc.c, which
does explicitly implement this promise about size and alignment. Other
platforms probably should switch to the aligned allocator.
linkers no longer raise an error when undefined weak symbols are
found, but relocate as if the symbol value was 0. Note that we do not
repeat the mistake of userspace dynamic linker of making the symbol
lookup prefer non-weak symbol definition over the weak one, if both
are available. In fact, kernel linker uses the first definition
found, and ignores duplicates.
Signature of the elf_lookup() and elf_obj_lookup() functions changed
to split result/error code and the symbol address returned.
Otherwise, it is impossible to return zero address as the symbol
value, to MD relocation code. This explains the mechanical changes in
elf_machdep.c sources.
The powerpc64 R_PPC_JMP_SLOT handler did not checked error from the
lookup() call, the patch leaves the code as is (untested).

from x86 to use smp_ipi_mtx spin lock not only for smp_rendezvous_cpus()
but also for the MD cache invalidation, TLB demapping and remote register
reading IPIs due to the following reasons:
- The cross-IPI SMP deadlock x86 otherwise is subject to can't happen on
sparc64. That's because on sparc64, spin locks don't disable interrupts
completely but only raise the processor interrupt level to PIL_TICK. This
means that IPIs still get delivered and direct dispatch IPIs such as the
cache invalidation etc. IPIs in question are still executed.
- In smp_rendezvous_cpus(), smp_ipi_mtx is held not only while sending an
IPI_RENDEZVOUS, but until all CPUs have processed smp_rendezvous_action().
Consequently, smp_ipi_mtx may be locked for an extended amount of time as
queued IPIs (as opposed to the direct ones) such as IPI_RENDEZVOUS are
scheduled via a soft interrupt. Moreover, given that this soft interrupt
is only delivered at PIL_RENDEZVOUS, processing of smp_rendezvous_action()
on a target may be interrupted by f. e. a tick interrupt at PIL_TICK, in
turn leading to the target in question trying to send an IPI by itself
while IPI_RENDEZVOUS isn't fully handled, yet, and, thus, resulting in a
deadlock.
o As mentioned in the commit message of r245850, on least some sun4u platforms
concurrent sending of IPIs by different CPUs is fatal. Therefore, hold the
reintroduced MD ipi_mtx also while delivering cross-traps via MI helpers,
i. e. ipi_{all_but_self,cpu,selected}().
o Akin to x86, let the last CPU to process cpu_mp_bootstrap() set smp_started
instead of the BSP in cpu_mp_unleash(). This ensures that all APs actually
are started, when smp_started is no longer 0.
o In all MD and MI IPI helpers, check for smp_started == 1 rather than for
smp_cpus > 1 or nothing at all. This avoids races during boot causing IPIs
trying to be delivered to APs that in fact aren't up and running, yet.
While at it, move setting of the cpu_ipi_{selected,single}() pointers to
the appropriate delivery functions from mp_init() to cpu_mp_start() where
it's better suited and allows to get rid of the global isjbus variable.
o Given that now concurrent IPI delivery no longer is possible, also nuke
the delays before completely disabling interrupts again in the CPU-specific
cross-trap delivery functions, previously giving other CPUs a window for
sending IPIs on their part. Actually, we now should be able to entirely get
rid of completely disabling interrupts in these functions. Such a change
needs more testing, though.
o In {s,}tick_get_timecount_mp(), make the {s,}tick variable static. While not
necessary for correctness, this avoids page faults when accessing the stack
of a foreign CPU as {s,}tick now is locked into the TLBs as part of static
kernel data. Hence, {s,}tick_get_timecount_mp() always execute as fast as
possible, avoiding jitter.

several reasons for this change:
pmap_change_wiring() has never (in my memory) been used to set the wired
attribute on a virtual page. We have always used pmap_enter() to do that.
Moreover, it is not really safe to use pmap_change_wiring() to set the wired
attribute on a virtual page. The description of pmap_change_wiring() says
that it assumes the existence of a mapping in the pmap. However, non-wired
mappings may be reclaimed by the pmap at any time. (See pmap_collect().)
Many implementations of pmap_change_wiring() will crash if the mapping does
not exist.
pmap_unwire() accepts a range of virtual addresses, whereas
pmap_change_wiring() acts upon a single virtual page. Since we are
typically unwiring a range of virtual addresses, pmap_unwire() will be more
efficient. Moreover, pmap_unwire() allows us to unwire superpage mappings.
Previously, we were forced to demote the superpage mapping, because
pmap_change_wiring() only allowed us to express the unwiring of a single
base page mapping at a time. This added to the overhead of unwiring for
large ranges of addresses, including the implicit unwiring that occurs at
process termination.
Implementations for arm and powerpc will follow.

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

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

Relnotes: LSI 12Gb SAS driver mpr(4) added
the cpufreq code. Replace its use with smp_started. There's at least
one userland tool that still looks at the kern.smp.active sysctl, so
preserve it but point it to smp_started as well.

add it in kern.mk, but only if we're using clang. While this
option is supported by both clang and gcc, in the future there
may be changes to clang which change the defaults that require
a tweak to build our kernel such that other tools in our tree
will work. Set a good example by forcing -gdwarf-2 only for
clang builds, and only if the user hasn't specified another
dwarf level already. Update UPDATING to reflect the changed
state of affairs. This also keeps us from having to update
all the ARM kernels to add this, and also keeps us from
in the future having to update all the MIPS kernels and is
one less place the user will have to know to do something
special for clang and one less thing developers will need
to do when moving an architecture to clang.

To reduce the diff struct pcu.cnt field was not renamed, so
PCPU_OP(cnt.field) is still used. pc_cnt and pcpu are also used in
kvm(3) and vmstat(8). The goal was to not affect externally used KPI.
Bump __FreeBSD_version_ in case some out-of-tree module/code relies on the
the global cnt variable.
Exp-run revealed no ports using it directly.

further refinement is required as some device drivers intended to be
portable over FreeBSD versions rely on __FreeBSD_version to decide whether
to include capability.h.

casting to the appropriate type. (Note this fix cannot be done in
sys/sparc64/sparc64/spitfire.c, since that file is also included by
assembly source files.)
