This is to let Kyua descend into any tests that may have been installed by
ports under /usr/local/tests when running the test suite from /usr/tests.
Some ports (namely those that build Kyua) already install test programs
into /usr/local/tests. Just make sure to select the TEST option while
building them.

is attached, by establishing a temporary mapping of the registers when
necessary. This is a temporary measure to keep progress moving; in the
long run we need better control over the order in which devices attach
(better than "the order they appear in the fdt dts source").
matching 'compatible' property. This probably has a short half-life (as
do most of the fdt_ functions), but it helps solve some near-term needs
until we work out the larger problems of device instantiation order
versus the order of things in the fdt data.
If the hardware is not in a good state (like maybe clocks aren't running
because of a configuration glitch) its timeout clock may also not work
correctly, and the next command sent will hang that thread forever. The
thread in question is usually the one and only thread (at init time) or
a bio queue worker thread whose lockup will eventually lead to the whole
system locking up when it runs out of buffers.
No sd card command should take longer than 250ms. This new code establishes
a 1-second timeout to allow plenty of safety margin over that.
Normally it never needs to wait here at all; waiting is done at the end
of the prior command. When doing a crash dump, the normal interrupt
mechanism isn't used; instead the interrupt handler is called repeatedly
in a polling-like manner. This can subvert hardware-specific drivers
and lead to trying to start a new command while the previous command is
still busy on the bus. Since the SD spec says the longest a card can
take to execute any command is 250ms, use that as a timeout.
- Note that kernel options are required
- Shift parameters around in SYNOPSIS to make it more clear that there are
different modes
- For all literal symbols such as 'process' or 'loginclass' or 'wallclock',
etc, make them into bold symbols with .Sy
- For each subject:subject-id:etc: use .Em to underline to make it more clear
they relate to the rule syntax
- Document how devd(8) support works
- Move RSS warning to BUGS and replace RSS with 'memoryuse' since 'RSS' is not
defined in the manpage
- Add more examples around listing existing rules
- Make rule syntax into a list to improve readability
- Add a list of subjects and their corresponding subject-id same as
RESOURCES/ACTIONS have lists
- Note that rctl(8) takes affect on all current and future processes
- Note that amount can take human numbers
- Add reference to login.conf(5) in few places login class is mentioned

Attempt to demote the superpage if trying to pmap_enter() on
one. Panic only when the particular superpage should
no longer exist for that pmap and address.
Because pmap_enter_locked() is called from few different functions
some redundancy in superpage promotion attempts can be observed.
Hence, avoid promotion in pmap_enter_object() (if the object can
be mapped by superpage it will be handled by pmap_enter_object()
itself) and also do not waste time in pmap_enter_quick().
From now on the promotion will be performed only in pmap_enter().
It was possible to create RW superpage mapping even if
the base pages were RO due to wrong setting of the prot
flag passed to pmap_map_section().
Promotion attempt should be canceled in case of attributes
mismatch between any two base pages. Since we still use
pv_flags to maintain permission to write (PVF_WRITE) and
wired status (PVF_WIRED) for a page, it is also necessary
to take those variables into account.
Invalidate L1 PTE regardles of existance of the corresponding
l2_bucket. This is relevant when superpage is entered via
pmap_enter_object() and will fix crash on entering page
in place of not properly removed superpage.
- netmap pipes, providing bidirectional blocking I/O while moving
100+ Mpps between processes using shared memory channels
(no mistake: over one hundred million. But mind you, i said
*moving* not *processing*);
- kqueue support (BHyVe needs it);
- improved user library. Just the interface name lets you select a NIC,
host port, VALE switch port, netmap pipe, and individual queues.
The upcoming netmap-enabled libpcap will use this feature.
- optional extra buffers associated to netmap ports, for applications
that need to buffer data yet don't want to make copies.
- segmentation offloading for the VALE switch, useful between VMs.
and a number of bug fixes and performance improvements.
My colleagues Giuseppe Lettieri and Vincenzo Maffione did a substantial
amount of work on these features so we owe them a big thanks.
There are some external repositories that can be of interest:
https://code.google.com/p/netmap
our public repository for netmap/VALE code, including
linux versions and other stuff that does not belong here,
such as python bindings.
https://code.google.com/p/netmap-libpcap
a clone of the libpcap repository with netmap support.
With this any libpcap client has access to most netmap
feature with no recompilation. E.g. tcpdump can filter
packets at 10-15 Mpps.
https://code.google.com/p/netmap-ipfw
a userspace version of ipfw+dummynet which uses netmap
to send/receive packets. Speed is up in the 7-10 Mpps
range per core for simple rulesets.
Both netmap-libpcap and netmap-ipfw will be merged upstream at some
point, but while this happens it is useful to have access to them.
And yes, this code will be merged soon. It is infinitely better
than the version currently in 10 and 9.

This is done by representing each bus as root PCI device in ACPI. The device
implements the _BBN method to return the PCI bus number to the guest OS.
Each PCI bus keeps track of the resources that is decodes for devices
configured on the bus: i/o, mmio (32-bit) and mmio (64-bit). These windows
are advertised to the guest via the _CRS object of the root device.
Bus 0 is treated specially since it consumes the I/O ports to access the
PCI config space [0xcf8-0xcff]. It also decodes the legacy I/O ports that
are consumed by devices on the LPC bus. For this reason the LPC bridge can
be configured only on bus 0.
The bus number can be specified using the following command line option
to bhyve(8): "-s <bus>:<slot>:<func>,<emul>[,<config>]"
