While some geom layers pass unknown commands down, not all do. For the ones that
don't, pass BIO_SPEEDUP down to the providers that constittue the geom, as
applicable. No changes to vinum or virstor because I was unsure how to add this
support, and I'm also unsure how to test these. gvinum doesn't implement
BIO_FLUSH either, so it may just be poorly maintained. gvirstor is for testing

pp->private just can not be NULL in those places.
In g_disk_start() and g_disk_ioctl() both dp != NULL and !dp->d_destroyed
should always be true if disk_gone() and disk_destroy() are used properly,
since GEOM does not send requests to errored providers. If the protocol is
not followed, then no amount of additional checks here give real safety.
In g_disk_access() though the checks are useful, since GEOM blocks only
new opens for errored providers, but allows closes. It should not happen
if disk_gone() and disk_destroy() are used properly, but may otherwise.
To improve cases when disk_gone() is not used, call it from disk_destroy().
It does not give full guaranties, but it errors the provider and makes
GEOM block unwanted requests at least after some race.

and should also work for disks that don't use CAM. And since it's
inherited thru the GEOM hierarchy, in most cases one doesn't need

instead of disk itself.

Ths change consists of two parts.
geom_disk: deny opening a disk for writing if it's marked as
write-protected. A new disk(9) flag is added to mark write protected
disks. A possible alternative could be to add another parameter to d_open,
so that the open mode could be passed to it and the disk drivers could
make the decision internally, but the flag required less churn.
scsi_da: add a new phase of disk probing to query the all pages mode
sense page. We can determine if the disk is write protected using bit 7
of the device specific field in the mode parameter header returned by

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.
Implement disk_add_alias to allow aliases to be added to disks. All
disk have a primary name (say "foo") can also have secondary names
(say "bar") such that all instances of "foo" also have a "bar"
alias. So if you have foo0, foo0p1, foo1, foo1s1 and foo1s1a nodes
created by the foo driver and gpart, device nodes bar0, bar0p1, bar1,
bar1s1 and bar1s1a will appear as symlinks back to the original nodes.
This generalizes to multiple aliases. However, since the unit number
follows the primary name, multiple device drivers can't create the
same aliases unless those drives coorinate the unit number space (eg
you couldn't add an alias 'disk' to both 'da' and 'ada' because it's
possible to have da0 and ada0, because 'disk0' is ambiguous).

Function names (or arbitrary string constants) are tracked in a

device is gone.
The problem was that when disk_gone() is called, if the GEOM disk
creation process has not yet happened, the withering process
couldn't start.
We didn't record any state in the GEOM disk code, and so the d_gone()
callback to the da(4) driver never happened.
The solution is to track the state of the creation process, and
initiate the withering process from g_disk_create() if the disk is
being created.
This change does add fields to struct disk, and so I have bumped
DISK_VERSION.
geom_disk.c: Track where we are in the disk creation process,

In disk_gone(), set a new d_goneflag variable that
g_disk_create() can check to see if it needs to

This change includes support for SCSI SMR drives (which conform to the
Zoned Block Commands or ZBC spec) and ATA SMR drives (which conform to
the Zoned ATA Command Set or ZAC spec) behind SAS expanders.
This includes full management support through the GEOM BIO interface, and
through a new userland utility, zonectl(8), and through camcontrol(8).
This is now ready for filesystems to use to detect and manage zoned drives.
(There is no work in progress that I know of to use this for ZFS or UFS, if
anyone is interested, let me know and I may have some suggestions.)
Also, improve ATA command passthrough and dispatch support, both via ATA
and ATA passthrough over SCSI.
Also, add support to camcontrol(8) for the ATA Extended Power Conditions
feature set. You can now manage ATA device power states, and set various
idle time thresholds for a drive to enter lower power states.
Note that this change cannot be MFCed in full, because it depends on
changes to the struct bio API that break compatilibity. In order to
avoid breaking the stable API, only changes that don't touch or depend on
the struct bio changes can be merged. For example, the camcontrol(8)
changes don't depend on the new bio API, but zonectl(8) and the probe
changes to the da(4) and ada(4) drivers do depend on it.
Also note that the SMR changes have not yet been tested with an actual
SCSI ZBC device, or a SCSI to ATA translation layer (SAT) that supports
ZBC to ZAC translation. I have not yet gotten a suitable drive or SAT
layer, so any testing help would be appreciated. These changes have been
tested with Seagate Host Aware SATA drives attached to both SAS and SATA
controllers. Also, I do not have any SATA Host Managed devices, and I
suspect that it may take additional (hopefully minor) changes to support
them.
Thanks to Seagate for supplying the test hardware and answering questions.

The da(4) driver supports SCSI ZBC devices, as well as ATA ZAC
devices when they are attached via a SCSI to ATA Translation (SAT)
layer. Since ZBC -> ZAC translation is a new feature in the T10
SAT-4 spec, most SATA drives will be supported via ATA commands
sent via the SCSI ATA PASS-THROUGH command. The da(4) driver will
prefer the ZBC interface, if it is available, for performance
reasons, but will use the ATA PASS-THROUGH interface to the ZAC
command set if the SAT layer doesn't support translation yet.
As I mentioned above, ZBC command support is untested.

building functions. Note that these have return values, unlike
almost all other CCB building functions in CAM. The reason is
that they can fail, depending upon the particular combination
of input parameters. The primary failure case is if the user
wants NCQ, but fails to specify additional CDB storage. NCQ
requires using the 32-byte version of the SCSI ATA PASS-THROUGH
command, and the current CAM CDB size is 16 bytes.

sys/dev/ahci/ahci.c:
Fix SEND / RECEIVE FPDMA QUEUED in the ahci(4) driver.
ahci_setup_fis() previously set the top bits of the sector count
register in the FIS to 0 for FPDMA commands. This is okay for
read and write, because the PRIO field is in the only thing in
those bits, and we don't implement that further up the stack.
But, for SEND and RECEIVE FPDMA QUEUED, the subcommand is in that
byte, so it needs to be transmitted to the drive.
In ahci_setup_fis(), always set the the top 8 bits of the
sector count register. We need it in both the standard
and NCQ / FPDMA cases.

number of bytes transferred for REPORT ZONES won't quite match
what is received from the harware. This is because we're
necessarily counting bytes coming from the da(4) / ada(4) drivers,
which are using the disk_zone.h interface to communicate up
the stack. The structure sizes it uses are slightly different
than the SCSI and ATA structure sizes.
sys/sys/ata.h:
Add many bit and structure definitions for ZAC, NCQ, and EPC
command support.
sys/sys/bio.h:
Convert the bio_cmd field to a straight enumeration. This will
yield more space for additional commands in the future. After

Converting to an enumeration will also prevent use as a bitmask

the SCSI ZBC and ATA ZAC standards, but uses integers in native
byte order instead of big endian (SCSI) or little endian (ATA)
byte arrays.
This is intended to offer to the complete feature set of the ZBC
and ZAC disk management without requiring the application developer
to include SCSI or ATA headers. We also use one set of headers
for ioctl consumers and kernel bio-level consumers.

camdd(8) utility.
CCBs may be queued to the driver via the new CAMIOQUEUE ioctl, and
completed CCBs may be retrieved via the CAMIOGET ioctl. User
processes can use poll(2) or kevent(2) to get notification when
I/O has completed.
While the existing CAMIOCOMMAND blocking ioctl interface only
supports user virtual data pointers in a CCB (generally only
one per CCB), the new CAMIOQUEUE ioctl supports user virtual and
physical address pointers, as well as user virtual and physical
scatter/gather lists. This allows user applications to have more
flexibility in their data handling operations.
Kernel memory for data transferred via the queued interface is
allocated from the zone allocator in MAXPHYS sized chunks, and user
data is copied in and out. This is likely faster than the
vmapbuf()/vunmapbuf() method used by the CAMIOCOMMAND ioctl in
configurations with many processors (there are more TLB shootdowns
caused by the mapping/unmapping operation) but may not be as fast
as running with unmapped I/O.
The new memory handling model for user requests also allows
applications to send CCBs with request sizes that are larger than
MAXPHYS. The pass(4) driver now limits queued requests to the I/O
size listed by the SIM driver in the maxio field in the Path
Inquiry (XPT_PATH_INQ) CCB.
There are some things things would be good to add:
1. Come up with a way to do unmapped I/O on multiple buffers.
Currently the unmapped I/O interface operates on a struct bio,
which includes only one address and length. It would be nice
to be able to send an unmapped scatter/gather list down to
busdma. This would allow eliminating the copy we currently do
for data.
2. Add an ioctl to list currently outstanding CCBs in the various
queues.
3. Add an ioctl to cancel a request, or use the XPT_ABORT CCB to do
that.
4. Test physical address support. Virtual pointers and scatter
gather lists have been tested, but I have not yet tested
physical addresses or scatter/gather lists.
5. Investigate multiple queue support. At the moment there is one
queue of commands per pass(4) device. If multiple processes
open the device, they will submit I/O into the same queue and
get events for the same completions. This is probably the right
model for most applications, but it is something that could be
changed later on.
Also, add a new utility, camdd(8) that uses the asynchronous pass(4)
driver interface.
This utility is intended to be a basic data transfer/copy utility,
a simple benchmark utility, and an example of how to use the
asynchronous pass(4) interface.
It can copy data to and from pass(4) devices using any target queue
depth, starting offset and blocksize for the input and ouptut devices.
It currently only supports SCSI devices, but could be easily extended
to support ATA devices.
It can also copy data to and from regular files, block devices, tape
devices, pipes, stdin, and stdout. It does not support queueing
multiple commands to any of those targets, since it uses the standard
read(2)/write(2)/writev(2)/readv(2) system calls.
The I/O is done by two threads, one for the reader and one for the
writer. The reader thread sends completed read requests to the
writer thread in strictly sequential order, even if they complete
out of order. That could be modified later on for random I/O patterns
or slightly out of order I/O.
camdd(8) uses kqueue(2)/kevent(2) to get I/O completion events from
the pass(4) driver and also to send request notifications internally.
For pass(4) devcies, camdd(8) uses a single buffer (CAM_DATA_VADDR)
per CAM CCB on the reading side, and a scatter/gather list
(CAM_DATA_SG) on the writing side. In addition to testing both
interfaces, this makes any potential reblocking of I/O easier. No
data is copied between the reader and the writer, but rather the
reader's buffers are split into multiple I/O requests or combined
into a single I/O request depending on the input and output blocksize.
For the file I/O path, camdd(8) also uses a single buffer (read(2),
write(2), pread(2) or pwrite(2)) on reads, and a scatter/gather list
(readv(2), writev(2), preadv(2), pwritev(2)) on writes.
Things that would be nice to do for camdd(8) eventually:
1. Add support for I/O pattern generation. Patterns like all
zeros, all ones, LBA-based patterns, random patterns, etc. Right
Now you can always use /dev/zero, /dev/random, etc.
2. Add support for a "sink" mode, so we do only reads with no
writes. Right now, you can use /dev/null.
3. Add support for automatic queue depth probing, so that we can
figure out the right queue depth on the input and output side
for maximum throughput. At the moment it defaults to 6.
4. Add support for SATA device passthrough I/O.
5. Add support for random LBAs and/or lengths on the input and
output sides.
6. Track average per-I/O latency and busy time. The busy time
and latency could also feed in to the automatic queue depth
determination.
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_pass.h:
Define two new ioctls, CAMIOQUEUE and CAMIOGET, that queue
and fetch asynchronous CAM CCBs respectively.
Although these ioctls do not have a declared argument, they
both take a union ccb pointer. If we declare a size here,
the ioctl code in sys/kern/sys_generic.c will malloc and free
a buffer for either the CCB or the CCB pointer (depending on
how it is declared). Since we have to keep a copy of the
CCB (which is fairly large) anyway, having the ioctl malloc
and free a CCB for each call is wasteful.
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_pass.c:
Add asynchronous CCB support.
Add two new ioctls, CAMIOQUEUE and CAMIOGET.
CAMIOQUEUE adds a CCB to the incoming queue. The CCB is
executed immediately (and moved to the active queue) if it
is an immediate CCB, but otherwise it will be executed
in passstart() when a CCB is available from the transport layer.
When CCBs are completed (because they are immediate or
passdone() if they are queued), they are put on the done
queue.
If we get the final close on the device before all pending
I/O is complete, all active I/O is moved to the abandoned
queue and we increment the peripheral reference count so
that the peripheral driver instance doesn't go away before
all pending I/O is done.
The new passcreatezone() function is called on the first
call to the CAMIOQUEUE ioctl on a given device to allocate
the UMA zones for I/O requests and S/G list buffers. This
may be good to move off to a taskqueue at some point.
The new passmemsetup() function allocates memory and
scatter/gather lists to hold the user's data, and copies
in any data that needs to be written. For virtual pointers
(CAM_DATA_VADDR), the kernel buffer is malloced from the
new pass(4) driver malloc bucket. For virtual
scatter/gather lists (CAM_DATA_SG), buffers are allocated
from a new per-pass(9) UMA zone in MAXPHYS-sized chunks.
Physical pointers are passed in unchanged. We have support
for up to 16 scatter/gather segments (for the user and
kernel S/G lists) in the default struct pass_io_req, so
requests with longer S/G lists require an extra kernel malloc.
The new passcopysglist() function copies a user scatter/gather
list to a kernel scatter/gather list. The number of elements
in each list may be different, but (obviously) the amount of data
stored has to be identical.
The new passmemdone() function copies data out for the
CAM_DATA_VADDR and CAM_DATA_SG cases.
The new passiocleanup() function restores data pointers in
user CCBs and frees memory.
Add new functions to support kqueue(2)/kevent(2):
passreadfilt() tells kevent whether or not the done
queue is empty.
passkqfilter() adds a knote to our list.
passreadfiltdetach() removes a knote from our list.

bug somewhere, but better safe then sorry for now.

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)
truss: can not get etype: Cannot allocate memory
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 existing algorithm selects a preferred leaf vdev based on offset of the zio
request modulo the number of members in the mirror. It assumes the devices are
of equal performance and that spreading the requests randomly over both drives
will be sufficient to saturate them. In practice this results in the leaf vdevs
being under utilized.
The new algorithm takes into the following additional factors:
* Load of the vdevs (number outstanding I/O requests)
* The locality of last queued I/O vs the new I/O request.
Within the locality calculation additional knowledge about the underlying vdev
is considered such as; is the device backing the vdev a rotating media device.
This results in performance increases across the board as well as significant
increases for predominantly streaming loads and for configurations which don't
have evenly performing devices.
The following are results from a setup with 3 Way Mirror with 2 x HD's and
1 x SSD from a basic test running multiple parrallel dd's.

In addition to the performance changes the code was also restructured, with
the help of Justin Gibbs, to provide a more logical flow which also ensures
vdevs loads are only calculated from the set of valid candidates.
The following additional sysctls where added to allow the administrator
to tune the behaviour of the load algorithm:
* vfs.zfs.vdev.mirror.rotating_inc
* vfs.zfs.vdev.mirror.rotating_seek_inc
* vfs.zfs.vdev.mirror.rotating_seek_offset
* vfs.zfs.vdev.mirror.non_rotating_inc
* vfs.zfs.vdev.mirror.non_rotating_seek_inc

When safety requirements are met, it allows to avoid passing I/O requests
to GEOM g_up/g_down thread, executing them directly in the caller context.
That allows to avoid CPU bottlenecks in g_up/g_down threads, plus avoid
several context switches per I/O.
The defined now safety requirements are:
- caller should not hold any locks and should be reenterable;
- callee should not depend on GEOM dual-threaded concurency semantics;
- on the way down, if request is unmapped while callee doesn't support it,
the context should be sleepable;
- kernel thread stack usage should be below 50%.
To keep compatibility with GEOM classes not meeting above requirements
new provider and consumer flags added:
- G_CF_DIRECT_SEND -- consumer code meets caller requirements (request);
- G_CF_DIRECT_RECEIVE -- consumer code meets callee requirements (done);
- G_PF_DIRECT_SEND -- provider code meets caller requirements (done);
- G_PF_DIRECT_RECEIVE -- provider code meets callee requirements (request).
Capable GEOM class can set them, allowing direct dispatch in cases where
it is safe. If any of requirements are not met, request is queued to
g_up or g_down thread same as before.
Such GEOM classes were reviewed and updated to support direct dispatch:
CONCAT, DEV, DISK, GATE, MD, MIRROR, MULTIPATH, NOP, PART, RAID, STRIPE,
VFS, ZERO, ZFS::VDEV, ZFS::ZVOL, all classes based on g_slice KPI (LABEL,
MAP, FLASHMAP, etc).
To declare direct completion capability disk(9) KPI got new flag equivalent
to G_PF_DIRECT_SEND -- DISKFLAG_DIRECT_COMPLETION. da(4) and ada(4) disk
drivers got it set now thanks to earlier CAM locking work.
This change more then twice increases peak block storage performance on
systems with manu CPUs, together with earlier CAM locking changes reaching
more then 1 million IOPS (512 byte raw reads from 16 SATA SSDs on 4 HBAs to
256 user-level threads).

Introduce new function devstat_end_transaction_bio_bt(), adding new argument
to specify present time. Use this function to move binuptime() out of lock,
substantially reducing lock congestion when slow timecounter is used.
Ensure that d_delmaxsize is always set, removing init to 0 which could cause
future issues if use cases change.
Allow kern.cam.da.X.delete_max (which maps to d_delmaxsize) to be increased
up to the calculated max after being reduced.

SPC-4 specification states that serial number may be property of device,
but not a specific logical unit. People reported about FC storages using
serial number in that way, making it unusable for purposes of LUN multipath
detection. SPC-4 states that designators associated with logical unit from
the VPD page 83h "Device Identification" should be used for that purpose.
Report first of them in the new attribute in such preference order: NAA,
EUI-64, T10 and SCSI name string.
While there, make GEOM DISK properly report GEOM::ident in XML output also
using d_getattr() method, if available. This fixes serial numbers reporting
for SCSI disks in `geom disk list` output and confxml.

requests.
sys/geom/geom_disk.h:
- Added d_delmaxsize which represents the maximum size of individual
device delete requests in bytes. This can be used by devices to
inform geom of their size limitations regarding delete operations
which are generally different from the read / write limits as data
is not usually transferred from the host to physical device.
sys/geom/geom_disk.c:
- Use new d_delmaxsize to calculate the size of chunks passed through to
the underlying strategy during deletes instead of using read / write
optimised values. This defaults to d_maxsize if unset (0).
- Moved d_maxsize default up so it can be used to default d_delmaxsize
sys/cam/ata/ata_da.c:
- Added d_delmaxsize calculations for TRIM and CFA
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_da.c:
- Added re-calculation of d_delmaxsize whenever delete_method is set.
- Added kern.cam.da.X.delete_max sysctl which allows the max size for
delete requests to be limited. This is useful in preventing timeouts
on devices who's delete methods are slow. It should be noted that
this limit is reset then the device delete method is changed and
that it can only be lowered not increased from the device max.
