- Seal the fate of long standing memory leak (4 years, 7 months) during
pcm_unregister(). While destroying cdevs, scan / detect possible
children and free its SLIST placeholder properly.
- Optimize channel allocation / numbering even further. Do brute cyclic
checking only if the channel numbering screwed.
- Mega vchan create/destroy cleanup:
o Implement pcm_setvchans() so everybody can use it freely instead
of implementing their own, be it through sysctl or channel auto
allocation.
o Increase vchan creation/destruction resiliency:
+ it's possible to increase/decrease total vchans even during
busy playback/recording. Busy channel will be left alone, untouched.
Abusive test sample:
# play whatever...
#
while : ; do
sysctl hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=1
sysctl hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=10
sysctl hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=100
sysctl hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=200
done
# Play something else, leave above loop running frantically.
+ Seal another 4 years old bug where it is possible to destroy (virtual)
channel even when its cdevs being referenced by other process.
The "First Come First Served" nature of dsp_clone() is the main
culprit of this issue, and usually manifest itself as dangling
channel <-> process association. Ensure that all of its cdevs
are free from being referenced before destroying it (through
ORPHAN_CDEVT() macross).
All these fixes (including previous fixes) will be MFCed, later.

possible).
- Extra sanity check to ensure proper parent channel is being selected.
- Reset parent channel once all of its children gone.

mount memory from being reclaimed. This resolves a number of race
conditions described in vfs_default.c and introduced with the
VFS_LOCK_GIANT macros.
- Let the mtx and lock remain valid after the mount structure has been
freed by using init and fini calls. Technically fini will never be
called but is included for completeness.
- Consistently use lockmgr directly rather than lockmgr to lock and
vfs_unbusy to unlock.

Vararg functions have a different calling convention than regular
functions on amd64. Casting a varag function to a regular one to
match the function pointer declaration will hide the varargs from
the caller and we will end up with an incorrectly setup stack.
Entirely remove the varargs from these functions and change the
functions to match the declaration of the function pointers.
Remove the now unnecessary casts.
Also change static struct ipprotosw[] to two independent
protosw/ip6protosw definitions to remove an unnecessary cast.

The problem is in MD5(9) implementation. The Encode() function takes
'unsigned char *output' as its first argument, which is then assigned to
'u_int32_t *op'. If the 'output' argument is not 4 byte aligned (and in
geli(8) case it is not), sparc64 machine will panic.
I don't know how to fix MD5(9) in a clean way, so I'm implementing a
work-around in geli(8).

This totally violates the PCI spec, but happens rarely enough that a
workaround is in order. This adds one test when we have a real
interrupt to service (which is very rare), and doesn't affect the
usualy 'nothing to see here' case at all.

for debugging than the current behavior of getting a page fault and not

some systems were designed so that AML writes to various resources shared

collide with writes by the OS and should never be performed. For now, we
print a message if such an access occurs, but do not block it. To block
the access, the tunable "debug.acpi.block_bad_io" can be set to 1. In the
future, we will flip the switch and this will become the default.

foreign per-CPU pages in cpu_ipi_send() in order to get the module IDs
of the other CPUs can cause a page fault. If this happens when doing a
TLB shootdown while dealing with another page fault this causes a panic
due to the recursive page fault. As I don't spot other code that assumes
or requires that accessing foreign per-CPU pages must not page fault
solve this by adding a statically allocated (and therefore locked in the
kernel pages) array which establishes a FreeBSD CPU ID -> module ID
relation and use that in cpu_ipi_selected() (instead of statically
allocating the per-CPU pages which would just waste memory on say a dual
CPU machine as sun4u theoretically supports up to 128 CPUs or wasting
dTLB slots for the foreign per-CPU pages). [1]
- Fix a potential race in cpu_ipi_send(); as we don't serialize the access
to cpu_ipi_selected() between MI and MD use (only MI-MI and MD-MD) we
might catch the NACK bit caused by sending another IPI. Solve this by
checking the NACK bit in the contents of the interrupt dispatch status
reg read while interrupts were still turned off instead of reading that
reg anew after interrupts were turned on again. This is also what the
CPU docs suggest to do.
- Add a workaround for the SpitFire erratum #54 bug (affecting interrupt
dispatch). While public info regarding what this CPU bug actually causes
is not available testing shows that with the workaround in place it's
less likely to get a "couldn't send ipi" panic, it doesn't solve these
panics entirely though. [2]
