With the first part of my previous Summer of Code work, we get:
-made libalias modular:
-support for 'particular' protocols (like ftp/irc/etcetc) is no more
hardcoded inside libalias, but it's available through external
modules loadable at runtime
-modules are available both in kernel (/boot/kernel/alias_*.ko) and
user land (/lib/libalias_*)
-protocols/applications modularized are: cuseeme, ftp, irc, nbt, pptp,
skinny and smedia
-added logging support for kernel side
-cleanup
After a buildworld, do a 'mergemaster -i' to install the file libalias.conf
in /etc or manually copy it.
During startup (and after every HUP signal) user land applications running
the new libalias will try to read a file in /etc called libalias.conf:
that file contains the list of modules to load.
User land applications affected by this commit are ppp and natd:
if libalias.conf is present in /etc you won't notice any difference.
The only kernel land bit affected by this commit is ng_nat:
if you are using ng_nat, and it doesn't correctly handle
ftp/irc/etcetc sessions anymore, remember to kldload
the correspondent module (i.e. kldload alias_ftp).
General information and details about the inner working are available
in the libalias man page under the section 'MODULAR ARCHITECTURE
(AND ipfw(4) SUPPORT)'.
NOTA BENE: this commit affects _ONLY_ libalias, ipfw in-kernel nat
support will be part of the next libalias-related commit.

- Split the ISA attachment out into its own file: ipmi_isa.c.
- Change the code to probe the SMBIOS table for an IPMI entry to just use
pmap_mapbios() to map the table in rather than trying to setup a fake
resource on an isa device and then activating the resource to map in the
table.
- Make bus attachments leaner by adding attach functions for each
communication interface (ipmi_kcs_attach(), ipmi_smic_attach(), etc.)
that setup per-interface data.
- Formalize the model used by the driver to handle requests by adding an
explicit struct ipmi_request object that holds the state of a given
request and reply for the entire lifetime of the request. By bundling
the request into an object, it is easier to add retry logic to the various
communication backends (as well as eventually support BT mode which uses
a slightly different message format than KCS, SMIC, and SSIF).
- Add a per-softc lock and remove D_NEEDGIANT as the driver is now MPSAFE.

loading for the QLogic cards.
Because isp(4) exists before the root is mounted, it's not really
possible for us to use the kernel's linker to load modules directly
from disk- that's really too bad.
However, the this is still a net win in in that the firmware has
been split up on a per chip (and in some cases, functionality)
basis, so the amount of stuff loaded *can* be substantially less
than the 1.5MB of firmware images that ispfw now manages. That is,
each specific f/w set is now also built as a module. For example,
QLogic 2322 f/w is built as isp_2322.ko and Initiator/Target 1080
firmware is built as isp_1080_it.ko.
For compatibility purposes (i.e., to perturb folks the least), we
also still build all of the firmware as one ispfw.ko module.
This allows us to let 'ispfw_LOAD' keep on working in existing
loader.conf files. If you now want to strip this down to just
the firmware for your h/w, you can then change loader.conf to
load the f/w you specifically want.
We also still allow for ispfw to be statically built (e.g., for
PAE and sparc64).
Future changes will look at f/w unloading and also role switching
that then uses the kernel linker to load different ips f/w sets.

Like lnc(4), the C-bus front-end of le(4) only supports C-NET(98)S
and is untested due to lack of such hardware, but given that's it's
based on the respective lnc(4) and not too different from the ISA
front-end it should be highly likely to work.

Add back in a scheme to emulate old type major/minor numbers via hooks into
stat, linprocfs to return major/minors that Linux app's expect. Currently
only /dev/null is always registered. Drivers can register via the Linux
type shim similar to the ioctl shim but by using
linux_device_register_handler/linux_device_unregister_handler functions.
The structure is:
struct linux_device_handler {
char *bsd_driver_name;
char *linux_driver_name;
char *bsd_device_name;
char *linux_device_name;
int linux_major;
int linux_minor;
int linux_char_device;
};
Linprocfs uses this to display the major number of the driver. The
soon to be available linsysfs will use it to fill in the driver name.
Linux_stat uses it to translate the major/minor into Linux type values.
Note major numbers are dynamically assigned via passing in a -1 for
the major number so we don't need to keep track of them.
This is somewhat needed due to us switching to our devfs. MegaCli
will not run until I add in the linsysfs and mfi Linux compat changes.

manner or on some add-on cards also as a companion device to an 'esp'
device which also hangs off directly from the SBus. With the latter
variant it's a bit tricky to glue the DMA engine to the core logic of
the respective 'esp' device. With rev. 1.35 of sbus.c we are however
guaranteed that such a 'dma' device is probed before the respective
'esp' device which simplifies things a lot. [1]
- In the esp(4) SBus front-end read the part-unique ID code of Fast-SCSI
capable chips the right way. This fixes erroneously detecting some
chips as FAS366 when in fact they are not. Add explicit checks for the
FAS100A, FAS216 and FAS236 variants instead treating all of these as
ESP200. That way we can correctly set the respective Fast-SCSI config
bits instead of driving them out of specs. This includes adding the
FAS100A and FAS236 variants to the NCR53C9x core code. We probably
still subsume some chip variants as ESP200 while in fact they are
another variant which however shouldn't really matter as this will
only happen when these chips are driven at 25MHz or less which implies
not being able to run Fast-SCSI. [3]
- Add a workaround to the NCR53C9x interrupt handler which ignores the
stray interrupt generated by FAS100A when doing path inquiry during
boot and which otherwiese would trigger a panic.
- Add support for the 'esp' devices hanging off of a 'dma' or 'espdma'
busses or which are companions of 'dma' devices to esp(4). In case of
the variants that hang off of a DMA device this is a bit hackish as
esp(4) then directly uses the softc of the respective parent to talk
to the DMA engine. It might make sense to add an interface for this
in order to implement this in a cleaner way however it's not yet clear
how the requirements for the LANCE Ethernet controllers are and the
hack works for now. [2]
This effectively adds support for the onboard SCSI controller in
Ultra 1 as well as most of the ESP-based SBus add-on cards to esp(4).
With this the code for supporting the Performance Technologies SBS430
SBus SCSI add-on cards is also largely in place the remaining bits
were however omitted as it's unclear from the NetBSD how to couple
the DMA engine and the core logic together for these cards.

here on in, if_ndis.ko will be pre-built as a module, and can be built
into a static kernel (though it's not part of GENERIC). Drivers are
created using the new ndisgen(8) script, which uses ndiscvt(8) under
the covers, along with a few other tools. The result is a driver module
that can be kldloaded into the kernel.
A driver with foo.inf and foo.sys files will be converted into
foo_sys.ko (and foo_sys.o, for those who want/need to make static
kernels). This module contains all of the necessary info from the
.INF file and the driver binary image, converted into an ELF module.
You can kldload this module (or add it to /boot/loader.conf) to have
it loaded automatically. Any required firmware files can be bundled
into the module as well (or converted/loaded separately).
Also, add a workaround for a problem in NdisMSleep(). During system
bootstrap (cold == 1), msleep() always returns 0 without actually
sleeping. The Intel 2200BG driver uses NdisMSleep() to wait for
the NIC's firmware to come to life, and fails to load if NdisMSleep()
doesn't actually delay. As a workaround, if msleep() (and hence
ndis_thsuspend()) returns 0, use a hard DELAY() to sleep instead).
This is not really the right thing to do, but we can't really do much
else. At the very least, this makes the Intel driver happy.
There are probably other drivers that fail in this way during bootstrap.
Unfortunately, the only workaround for those is to avoid pre-loading
them and kldload them once the system is running instead.

3ware's 9xxx series controllers. This corresponds to
the 9.2 release (for FreeBSD 5.2.1) on the 3ware website.
Highlights of this release are:
1. The driver has been re-architected to use a "Common Layer"
(all tw_cl* files), which is a consolidation of all OS-independent
parts of the driver. The FreeBSD OS specific portions of the
driver go into an "OS Layer" (all tw_osl* files).
This re-architecture is to achieve better maintainability, consistency
of behavior across OS's, and better portability to new OS's (drivers
for new OS's can be written by just adding an OS Layer that's specific
to the OS, by complying to a "Common Layer Programming Interface" API.
2. The driver takes advantage of multiple processors.
3. The driver has a new firmware image bundled, the new features of which
include Online Capacity Expansion and multi-lun support, among others.
More details about 3ware's 9.2 release can be found here:
http://www.3ware.com/download/Escalade9000Series/9.2/9.2_Release_Notes_Web.pdf
Since the Common Layer is used across OS's, the FreeBSD specific include
path for header files (/sys/dev/twa) is not part of the #include pre-processor
directive in any of the source files. For being able to integrate twa into
the kernel despite this, Makefile.<arch> has been changed to add the include
path to CFLAGS.

layer, but with a twist.
The twist has to do with the fact that Microsoft supports structured
exception handling in kernel mode. On the i386 arch, exception handling
is implemented by hanging an exception registration list off the
Thread Environment Block (TEB), and the TEB is accessed via the %fs
register. The problem is, we use %fs as a pointer to the pcpu stucture,
which means any driver that tries to write through %fs:0 will overwrite
the curthread pointer and make a serious mess of things.
To get around this, Project Evil now creates a special entry in
the GDT on each processor. When we call into Windows code, a context
switch routine will fix up %fs so it points to our new descriptor,
which in turn points to a fake TEB. When the Windows code returns,
or calls out to an external routine, we swap %fs back again. Currently,
Project Evil makes use of GDT slot 7, which is all 0s by default.
I fully expect someone to jump up and say I can't do that, but I
couldn't find any code that makes use of this entry anywhere. Sadly,
this was the only method I could come up with that worked on both
UP and SMP. (Modifying the LDT works on UP, but becomes incredibly
complicated on SMP.) If necessary, the context switching stuff can
be yanked out while preserving the convention calling wrappers.
(Fortunately, it looks like Microsoft uses some special epilog/prolog
code on amd64 to implement exception handling, so the same nastiness
won't be necessary on that arch.)
The advantages are:
- Any driver that uses %fs as though it were a TEB pointer won't
clobber pcpu.
- All the __stdcall/__fastcall/__regparm stuff that's specific to
gcc goes away.
Also, while I'm here, switch NdisGetSystemUpTime() back to using
nanouptime() again. It turns out nanouptime() is way more accurate
than just using ticks(). On slower machines, the Atheros drivers
I tested seem to take a long time to associate due to the loss
in accuracy.
