Previously, AcpiOsMemory was using pmap_mapbios which would always map
the requested address Write-Back (WB). For several AMD Ryzen laptops,
the BIOS uses AcpiOsMemory to directly access the PCI MCFG region in
order to access PCI config registers. This has the side effect of
remapping the MCFG region in the direct map as WB instead of UC
hanging the laptops during boot.
On the one laptop I examined in detail, the _PIC global method used to
switch from 8259A PICs to I/O APICs uses a pair of PCI config space
registers at offset 0x84 in the device at 0:0:0 to as a pair of
address/data registers to access an indirect register in the chipset
and clear a single bit to switch modes.
To fix, alter the semantics of pmap_mapbios() such that it does not
modify the attributes of any existing mappings and instead uses the
existing attributes. If a new mapping is created, this new mapping
uses WB (the default memory attribute).
Special thanks to the gentleman whose name I don't have who brought
two affected laptops to the hacker lounge at BSDCan. Direct access to
the affected systems permitted finding the root cause within an hour
or so.

page mapping that falls within the (current) superpage mapping or the
virtual address range [sva, eva). However, I have found empirically that
destroying the last 4 KB mapping produces slightly better results,
specifically, more promotions and fewer failed promotion attempts.
Accordingly, this revision changes pmap_advise() to destroy the last 4 KB

To fix the issue, change casueword(9) interface to return new value 1

on the oldval == *oldvalp comparison. The primitive no longer retries
the operation if it failed spuriously. Modify callers of

The hold_count and wire_count fields of struct vm_page are separate
reference counters with similar semantics. The remaining essential
differences are that holds are not counted as a reference with respect
to LRU, and holds have an implicit free-on-last unhold semantic whereas
vm_page_unwire() callers must explicitly determine whether to free the
page once the last reference to the page is released.
This change removes the KPIs which directly manipulate hold_count.
Functions such as vm_fault_quick_hold_pages() now return wired pages
instead. Since r328977 the overhead of maintaining LRU for wired pages
is lower, and in many cases vm_fault_quick_hold_pages() callers would
swap holds for wirings on the returned pages anyway, so with this change
we remove a number of page lock acquisitions.

The goal of this driver is consolidate information about SuperIO chips
and to provide for peaceful coexistence of drivers that need to access
SuperIO configuration registers.
While SuperIO chips can host various functions most of them are
discoverable and accessible without any knowledge of the SuperIO.
Examples are: keyboard and mouse controllers, UARTs, floppy disk
controllers. SuperIO-s also provide non-standard functions such as
GPIO, watchdog timers and hardware monitoring. Such functions do
require drivers with a knowledge of a specific SuperIO.
At this time the driver supports a number of ITE and Nuvoton (fka
Winbond) SuperIO chips.
There is a single driver for all devices. So, I have not done the usual
split between the hardware driver and the bus functionality. Although,
superio does act as a bus for devices that represent known non-standard
functions of a SuperIO chip. The bus provides enumeration of child
devices based on the hardcoded knowledge of such functions. The
knowledge as extracted from datasheets and other drivers.
As there is a single driver, I have not defined a kobj interface for it.
So, its interface is currently made of simple functions.
I think that we can the flexibility (and complications) when we actually
need it.
I am planning to convert nctgpio and wbwd to superio bus very soon.
Also, I am working on itwd driver (watchdog in ITE SuperIO-s).
Additionally, there is ithwm driver based on the reverted sensors
import, but I am not sure how to integrate it given that we still lack
any sensors interface.

previously addressed in r348246.
This pmap problem also exists on arm64 and riscv. However, the original
solution developed for amd64 and i386 cannot be used on arm64 and riscv. In
particular, arm64 and riscv do not define a PG_PROMOTED flag in their level
2 PTEs. (A PG_PROMOTED flag makes no sense on arm64, where unlike x86 or
riscv we are required to break the old 4KB mappings before making the 2MB
mapping; and on riscv there are no unused bits in the PTE to define a
PG_PROMOTED flag.)
This commit implements an alternative solution that can be used on all four
architectures. Moreover, this solution has two other advantages. First, on
older AMD processors that required the Erratum 383 workaround, it is less
costly. Specifically, it avoids unnecessary calls to pmap_fill_ptp() on a
superpage demotion. Second, it enables the elimination of some calls to
pagezero() in pmap_kernel_remove_{l2,pde}().
In addition, remove a related stale comment from pmap_enter_{l2,pde}().

It is possible for the kernel mapping to be created with superpage by
directly installing pde using pmap_enter_2mpage() without filling the
corresponding page table page. This can happen e.g. if the range is
already backed by reservation and vm_fault_soft_fast() conditions are
satisfied, which was observed on the pipe_map.
In this case, demotion must fill the page obtained from the pmap
radix, same as if the page is newly allocated. Use PG_PROMOTED bit as
an indicator that the page is valid, instead of the wire count of the
page table page.
Since the PG_PROMOTED bit is set on pde when we leave TLB entries for
4k pages around, which in particular means that the ptes were filled,
it provides more correct indicator. Note that pmap_protect_pde()
clears PG_PROMOTED, which handles the case when protection was changed
on the superpage without adjusting ptes.

As a side effect of reduced header pollution, many .c files and headers no

LOCK_DEBUG and LOCK_FILE_LINE_ARG are moved to sys/_lock.h, as required by

Having IPSEC compiled into the kernel imposes a non-trivial
performance penalty on multi-threaded workloads due to IPSEC
refcounting. In my benchmarks of multi-threaded UDP
transmit (connected sockets), I've seen a roughly 20% performance
penalty when the IPSEC option is included in the kernel (16.8Mpps
vs 13.8Mpps with 32 senders on a 14 core / 28 HTT Xeon
2697v3)). This is largely due to key_addref() incrementing and
decrementing an atomic reference count on the default
policy. This cause all CPUs to stall on the same cacheline, as it
bounces between different CPUs.
Given that relatively few users use ipsec, and that it can be
loaded as a module, it seems reasonable to ask those users to
load the ipsec module so as to avoid imposing this penalty on the
GENERIC kernel. Its my hope that this will make FreeBSD look
better in "out of the box" benchmark comparisons with other
operating systems.

tun(4) and tap(4) share the same general management interface and have a lot
in common. Bugs exist in tap(4) that have been fixed in tun(4), and
vice-versa. Let's reduce the maintenance requirements by merging them
together and using flags to differentiate between the three interface types
(tun, tap, vmnet).
This fixes a couple of tap(4)/vmnet(4) issues right out of the gate:
- tap devices may no longer be destroyed while they're open [0]
- VIMAGE issues already addressed in tun by kp
[0] emaste had removed an easy-panic-button in r240938 due to devdrn
blocking. A naive glance over this leads me to believe that this isn't quite
complete -- destroy_devl will only block while executing d_* functions, but
doesn't block the device from being destroyed while a process has it open.
The latter is the intent of the condvar in tun, so this is "fixed" (for
certain definitions of the word -- it wasn't really broken in tap, it just
wasn't quite ideal).
ifconfig(8) also grew the ability to map an interface name to a kld, so
that `ifconfig {tun,tap}0` can continue to autoload the correct module, and
`ifconfig vmnet0 create` will now autoload the correct module. This is a
low overhead addition.
(MFC commentary)
This may get MFC'd if many bugs in tun(4)/tap(4) are discovered after this,
and how critical they are. Changes after this are likely easily MFC'd
without taking this merge, but the merge will be easier.

IPI_STOP is used after panic or when ddb is entered manually. MONITOR/
MWAIT allows CPUs that support the feature to sleep in a low power way
instead of spinning. Something similar is already used at idle.
It is perhaps especially useful in oversubscribed VM environments, and is
safe to use even if the panic/ddb thread is not the BSP. (Except in the
presence of MWAIT errata, which are detected automatically on platforms with
known wakeup problems.)
It can be tuned/sysctled with "machdep.stop_mwait," which defaults to 0
(off). This commit also introduces the tunable
"machdep.mwait_cpustop_broken," which defaults to 0, unless the CPU has
known errata, but may be set to "1" in loader.conf to signal that mwait
wakeup is broken on CPUs FreeBSD does not yet know about.
Unfortunately, Bhyve doesn't yet support MONITOR extensions, so this doesn't
