r357614 added CTLFLAG_NEEDGIANT to make it easier to find nodes that are
still not MPSAFE (or already are but aren’t properly marked).
Use it in preparation for a general review of all nodes.
This is non-functional change that adds annotations to SYSCTL_NODE and
SYSCTL_PROC nodes using one of the soon-to-be-required flags.
Mark all obvious cases as MPSAFE. All entries that haven't been marked
as MPSAFE before are by default marked as NEEDGIANT

Similar to what was done for device_printfs in r347229.
Convert g_print_bio() to a thin shim around g_format_bio(), which acts on an
sbuf; documented in g_bio.9.

GEOM ELI may double ask the password during boot. Once at loader time, and
once at init time.
This happens due a module loading bug. By default GEOM ELI caches the
password in the kernel, but without the MODULE_VERSION annotation, the
kernel loads over the kernel module, even if the GEOM ELI was compiled into
the kernel. In this case, the newly loaded module
purges/invalidates/overwrites the GEOM ELI's password cache, which causes
the double asking.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,
such as:
1) no output from sysctl(8)
2) erroneously returning ENOMEM with tools like truss(1)
or uname(1)

there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
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
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
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
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

The SYSCTL_NODE macro defines a list that stores all child-elements of
that node. If there's no SYSCTL_DECL macro anywhere else, there's no
reason why it shouldn't be static.
deadlock fixed in r207671.
- Wait for worker process to exit at class unload. The worker process
was not guaranteed to exit before the linker unloaded the module.
- Use 0 as the worker process exit status instead of ENXIO and style

If the access counts were not increased and decreased in equal numbers by
gvinum consumers, the read access count would be inconsistent with the write
access count. Instead, modify the read access count with the write access
count directly to prevent any inconsistencies.

This is necessary for two reasons:
1) In order to avoid collisions with the use of a BIOs flags set by a consumer
or a provider
2) Because GV_BIO_DONE was used to mark a BIO as done, not enough flags was
available, so the consumer flags of a BIO had to be misused in order to
support enough flags. The new queue makes it possible to recycle the
GV_BIO_DONE flag into GV_BIO_GROW.
As a consequence, gvinum will now work with any other GEOM class under it or
on top of it.
- Use bio_pflags for storing internal flags on downgoing BIOs, as the requests
appear to come from a consumer of a gvinum volume. Use bio_cflags only for
cloned BIOs.
- Move gv_post_bio to be used internally for maintenance requests.
- Remove some cases where flags where set without need.

as they do not really relate and to prepare for an additional queue to be
covered by the BIO queue mutex.
- Implement wrappers for fetching the next element from the event queue as well
as for putting a new element into the BIO queue.
as the renaming only changes internal gvinum names and will not alter the geom
topology.
- The topology lock was not held when calling g_wither_geom after renaming.
The work have been under testing and fixing since then, and it is mature enough
to be put into HEAD for further testing.
A lot have changed in this time, and here are the most important:
- Gvinum now uses one single workerthread instead of one thread for each
volume and each plex. The reason for this is that the previous scheme was
very complex, and was the cause of many of the bugs discovered in gvinum.
Instead, gvinum now uses one worker thread with an event queue, quite
similar to what used in gmirror.
- The rebuild/grow/initialize/parity check routines no longer runs in
separate threads, but are run as regular I/O requests with special flags.
This made it easier to support mounted growing and parity rebuild.
- Support for growing striped and raid5-plexes, meaning that one can extend the
volumes for these plex types in addition to the concat type. Also works while
the volume is mounted.
- Implementation of many of the missing commands from the old vinum:
attach/detach, start (was partially implemented), stop (was partially
implemented), concat, mirror, stripe, raid5 (shortcuts for creating volumes
with one plex of these organizations).
- The parity check and rebuild no longer goes between userland/kernel, meaning
that the gvinum command will not stay and wait forever for the rebuild to
finish. You can instead watch the status with the list command.
- Many problems with gvinum have been reported since 5.x, and some has been hard
to fix due to the complicated architecture. Hopefully, it should be more
stable and better handle edge cases that previously made gvinum crash.
- Failed drives no longer disappears entirely, but now leave behind a dummy
drive that makes sure the original state is not forgotten in case the system
is rebooted between drive failures/swaps.
- Update manpage to reflect new commands and extend it with some examples.

The config is now parsed only in the vinumdrive geom, which hopefully
fixes the problem, that the drive class tasted before the vinum class
had a chance, for good.
Also restore the behaviour that the module can be loaded at boot time

Add functions to rename objects and to move a subdisk from one drive

When a drive is newly created, it's state is initially set to 'down',
so it won't allow saving the config to it (thus it will never know of
itself being created). Work around this by adding a new flag, that's
also checked when saving the config to a drive.

If the GEOM provider or disk goes away before the volume

in another kernel panic.
o Make sure that the drives specified for volume creation

o When writing out volume configuration data to associated drives,
make sure that the GEOM provider is active, otherwise continue
