With new ZFS prefetcher improvements it is no longer needed to fully
serialize reads to reach decent prediction hit rate. Softer variant
only creates small time window to reduce races instead of completely
blocking following reads while previous is running. It much less
hurts the performance in case of prediction miss.

It allows to report to initiator LU identifying information, preset via
"ident_info" and "text_ident_info" options.
Unfortunately it is impossible to implement SET IDENTIFYING INFORMATION,
since we have no persistent storage it requires, so the information is
read-only for initiator and has to be set out-of-band.

ioctl frontend ports.
This revision introduces two changes to CTL:
- Changes the way options are passed to CTL_LUN_REQ and CTL_PORT_REQ ioctls.
Removes ctl_be_arg structure and associated logic and replaces it with
nv(3)-based logic for passing in and out arguments.
- Allows creating multiple ioctl frontend ports using either ctladm(8) or
ctld(8).
New frontend ports are represented by /dev/cam/ctl<pp>.<vp> nodes, eg /dev/cam/ctl5.3.
Those device nodes respond only to CTL_IO ioctl.
New command-line options for ctladm:
# creates new ioctl frontend port with using free pp and vp=0
ctladm port -c
# creates new ioctl frontend port with pp=10 and vp=0
ctladm port -c -O pp=10
# creates new ioctl frontend port with pp=11 and vp=12
ctladm port -c -O pp=11 -O vp=12
# removes port with number 4 (it's a "targ_port" number, not pp number)
ctladm port -r -p 4
New syntax for ctl.conf:
target ... {
port ioctl/<pp>
...
}
target ... {
port ioctl/<pp>/<vp>
...

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.
No functional change intended.

The goal of this work is to remove the explicit dependency for ctl(4)
on iscsi(4), so end-users without iscsi(4) support in the kernel can
use ctl(4) for its other functions.
This allows those without iscsi(4) support built into the kernel to use
ctl(4) as a test mechanism. As a sidenote, this was possible around the
10.0-RELEASE period, but made impossible for end-users without iscsi(4)
between 10.0-RELEASE and 11.0-RELEASE.
Automatically load cfiscsi(4) from ctladm(8) and ctld(8) for backwards
compatibility with previously releases. The automatic loading feature is
compiled into the beforementioned tools if MK_ISCSI == yes when building
world.
Add a manpage for cfiscsi(4) and refer to it in ctl(4).

If "capacity" LU option is set, ramdisk backend now implements featured
thin provisioned disk, storing data in malloc(9) allocated memory blocks
of pblocksize bytes (default PAGE_SIZE or 4KB). Additionally ~0.2% of LU
size is used for indirection tree (bigger pblocksize reduce the overhead).
Backend supports all unmap and anchor operations. If configured capacity
is overflowed, proper error conditions are reported.
If "capacity" LU option is not set, the backend operates mostly the same
as before without allocating real storage: writes go to nowhere, reads
return zeroes, reporting that all LBAs are unmapped.
This backend is still mostly oriented on testing and benchmarking (it is
still a volatile RAM disk), but now it should allow to run real FS tests,
not only simple dumb dd.

CTL itself has no limits on on UNMAP and WRITE SAME sizes. But depending

Decouple the send and receive limits on the amount of data in a single
iSCSI PDU. MaxRecvDataSegmentLength is declarative, not negotiated, and
is direction-specific so there is no reason for both ends to limit
themselves to the same min(initiator, target) value in both directions.
Allow iSCSI drivers to report their send, receive, first burst, and max
burst limits explicitly instead of using hardcoded values or trying to
derive all of them from the receive limit (which was the only limit
reported by the drivers prior to this change).
Display the send and receive limits separately in the userspace iSCSI
utilities.

Its idea was to be a simple initiator and execute several commands from
kernel level, but FreeBSD never had consumer for that functionality,
while its implementation polluted many unrelated places..
retval is used to test the return of XML_Parse function which is ok if 1 is
returned and retval it directly returned to the main function and used as an
exit value.
if all the parsing part is done reset retval to 0 so that the command return 0
if everything ok

Replace iSCSI-specific LUN mapping mechanism with new one, working for any
ports. By default all ports are created without LUN mapping, exposing all
CTL LUNs as before. But, if needed, LUN mapping can be manually set on
per-port basis via ctladm. For its iSCSI ports ctld does it via ioctl(2).
The next step will be to teach ctld to work with FibreChannel ports also.
Respecting additional flexibility of the new mechanism, ctl.conf now allows
alternative syntax for LUN definition. LUNs can now be defined in global
context, and then referenced from targets by unique name, as needed. It
allows same LUN to be exposed several times via multiple targets.
While there, increase limit for LUNs per target in ctld from 256 to 1024.
Some initiators do not support LUNs above 255, but that is not our problem.

While in most cases CTL should correctly fetch those values from backing
storages, there are some initiators (like MS SQL), that may not like large
physical block sizes, even if they are true. For such cases allow override
fetched values with supported ones (like 4K).

Technically read requests can be executed in any order or simultaneously
since they are not changing any data. But ZFS prefetcher goes crasy when
it receives consecutive requests from different threads. Since prefetcher
works on level of separate blocks, instead of two consecutive 128K requests
it may receive 32 8K requests in mixed order.
This patch is more workaround then a real fix, and it does not fix all of
prefetcher problems, but it improves sequential read speed by 3-4x times
in some configurations. On the other side it may hurt performance if
some backing store has no prefetch, that is why it is disabled by default
for raw devices.
