A number of modules return EINVAL in this instance, and I have left
those alone for now and instead taught MOD_QUIESCE to accept this
as "didn't do anything".
Add a MOD_QUIESCE event for modules. This should return error (EBUSY)
of the module is in use.
MOD_UNLOAD should now only fail if it is impossible (as opposed to
inconvenient) to unload the module. Valid reasons are memory references
into the module which cannot be tracked down and eliminated.
When kldunloading, we abandon if MOD_UNLOAD fails, and if -force is
not given, MOD_QUIESCE failing will also prevent the unload.
For backwards compatibility, we treat EOPNOTSUPP from MOD_QUIESCE as
success.
Document that modules should return EOPNOTSUPP for unknown events.

Make the PCI and PCCARD attachments provide a bus_get_resource_list()
method so that resource listing for PCCARD works. PCCARD does not
have a bus_get_resource_list() method (yet), so I faked up the
resource list management in if_ndis_pccard.c, and added
bus_get_resource_list() methods to both if_ndis_pccard.c and if_ndis_pci.c.
The one in the PCI attechment just hands off to the PCI bus code.
The difference is transparent to the NDIS resource handler code.
Fixed ndis_open_file() so that opening files which live on NFS
filesystems work: pass an actual ucred structure to VOP_GETATTR()

Make NdisMMapIoSpace() handle mapping of PCMCIA attribute memory
resources correctly.
Turn subr_ndis.c:my_strcasecmp() into ndis_strcasecmp() and export
it so that if_ndis_pccard.c can use it, and junk the other copy
of my_strcasecmp() from if_ndis_pccard.c.
Add copyiniov() which copies a struct iovec array in from userland into
a malloc'ed struct iovec. Caller frees.
Change uiofromiov() to malloc the uio (caller frees) and name it
copyinuio() which is more appropriate.
Add cloneuio() which returns a malloc'ed copy. Caller frees.
Use them throughout.
- In subr_ndis.c:ndis_allocate_sharemem(), create the busdma tags
used for shared memory allocations with a lowaddr of 0x3E7FFFFF.
This forces the buffers to be mapped to physical/bus addresses within
the first 1GB of physical memory. It seems that at least one card
(Linksys Instant Wireless PCI V2.7) depends on this behavior. I
don't know if this is a hardware restriction, or if the NDIS
driver for this card is truncating the addresses itself, but using
physical/bus addresses beyong the 1GB limit causes initialization
failures.
- Create am NDIS_INITIALIZED() macro in if_ndisvar.h and use it in
if_ndis.c to test whether the device has been initialized rather
than checking for the presence of the IFF_UP flag in if_flags.
While debugging the previous problem, I noticed that bringing
up the device would always produce failures from ndis_setmulti().
It turns out that the following steps now occur during device
initialization:
- IFF_UP flag is set in if_flags
- ifp->if_ioctl() called with SIOCSIFADDR (which we don't handle)
- ifp->if_ioctl() called with SIOCADDMULTI
- ifp->if_ioctl() called with SIOCADDMULTI (again)
- ifp->if_ioctl() called with SIOCADDMULTI (yet again)
- ifp->if_ioctl() called with SIOCSIFFLAGS
Setting the receive filter and multicast filters can only be done
when the underlying NDIS driver has been initialized, which is done
by ifp->if_init(). However, we don't call ifp->if_init() until
ifp->if_ioctl() is called with SIOCSIFFLAGS and IFF_UP has been
set. It appears that now, the network stack tries to add multicast
addresses to interface's filter before those steps occur. Normally,
ndis_setmulti() would trap this condition by checking for the IFF_UP
flag, but the network code has in fact set this flag already, so
ndis_setmulti() is fooled into thinking the interface has been
initialized when it really hasn't.
It turns out this is usually harmless because the ifp->if_init()
routine (in this case ndis_init()) will set up the multicast
filter when it initializes the hardware anyway, and the underlying
routines (ndis_get_info()/ndis_set_info()) know that the driver/NIC
haven't been initialized yet, but you end up spurious error messages
on the console all the time.
Something tells me this new behavior isn't really correct. I think
the intention was to fix it so that ifp->if_init() is only called
once when we ifconfig an interface up, but the end result seems a
little bogus: the change of the IFF_UP flag should be propagated
down to the driver before calling any other ioctl() that might actually
require the hardware to be up and running.
pointer to the corresponding struct thread to the thread ID (lwpid_t)
assigned to that thread. The primary reason for this change is that
libthr now internally uses the same ID as the debugger and the kernel
when referencing to a kernel thread. This allows us to implement the
support for debugging without additional translations and/or mappings.
To preserve the ABI, the 1:1 threading syscalls, including the umtx
locking API have not been changed to work on a lwpid_t. Instead the
1:1 threading syscalls operate on long and the umtx locking API has
not been changed except for the contested bit. Previously this was
the least significant bit. Now it's the most significant bit. Since
the contested bit should not be tested by userland, this change is
not expected to be visible. Just to be sure, UMTX_CONTESTED has been
removed from <sys/umtx.h>.

make the key name matching case-insensitive. There are some drivers
and .inf files that have mismatched cases, e.g. the driver will look
for "AdhocBand" whereas the .inf file specifies a registry key to be
created called "AdHocBand." The mismatch is probably a typo that went
undetected (so much for QA), but since Windows seems to be case-insensitive,
we should be too.
In if_ndis.c, initialize rates and channels correctly so that specify
frequences correctly when trying to set channels in the 5Ghz band, and
so that 802.11b rates show up for some a/b/g cards (which otherwise
appear to have no 802.11b modes).
Also, when setting OID_802_11_CONFIGURATION in ndis_80211_setstate(),
provide default values for the beacon interval, ATIM window and dwelltime.
The Atheros "Aries" driver will crash if you try to select ad-hoc mode
and leave the beacon interval set to 0: it blindly uses this value and
does a division by 0 in the interrupt handler, causing an integer
divide trap.
- Use the dh_inserted member of the dispatch header in the Windows
timer structure to indicate that the timer has been "inserted into
the timer queue" (i.e. armed via timeout()). Use this as the value
to return to the caller in KeCancelTimer(). Previously, I was using
callout_pending(), but you can't use that with timeout()/untimeout()
without creating a potential race condition.
- Make ntoskrnl_init_timer() just a wrapper around ntoskrnl_init_timer_ex()
(reduces some code duplication).
- Drop Giant when entering if_ndis.c:ndis_tick() and
subr_ntorkrnl.c:ntoskrnl_timercall(). At the moment, I'm forced to
use system callwheel via timeout()/untimeout() to handle timers rather
than the callout API (struct callout is too big to fit inside the
Windows struct KTIMER, so I'm kind of hosed). Unfortunately, all
the callouts in the callwhere are not marked as MPSAFE, so when
one of them fires, it implicitly acquires Giant before invoking the
callback routine (and releases it when it returns). I don't need to
hold Giant, but there's no way to stop the callout code from acquiring
it as long as I'm using timeout()/untimeout(), so for now we cheat
by just dropping Giant right away (and re-acquiring it right before
the routine returns so keep the callout code happy). At some point,
I will need to solve this better, but for now this should be a suitable
workaround.
(I hope.)
My original instinct to make ndis_return_packet() asynchronous was correct.
Making ndis_rxeof() submit packets to the stack asynchronously fixes
one recursive spinlock acquisition, but it's also possible for it to
happen via the ndis_txeof() path too. So:
- In if_ndis.c, revert ndis_rxeof() to its old behavior (and don't bother
putting ndis_rxeof_serial() back since we don't need it anymore).
- In kern_ndis.c, make ndis_return_packet() submit the call to the
MiniportReturnPacket() function to the "ndis swi" thread so that
it always happens in another context no matter who calls it.

- hal_raise_irql(), hal_lower_irql() and hal_irql() didn't work right
on SMP (priority inheritance makes things... interesting). For now,
use only two states: DISPATCH_LEVEL (PI_REALTIME) and PASSIVE_LEVEL
(everything else). Tested on a dual PIII box.
- Use ndis_thsuspend() in ndis_sleep() instead of tsleep(). (I added
ndis_thsuspend() and ndis_thresume() to replace kthread_suspend()
and kthread_resume(); the former will preserve a thread's priority
when it wakes up, the latter will not.)
- Change use of tsleep() in ndis_stop_thread() to prevent priority
change on wakeup.
attempting to duplicate Windows spinlocks. Windows spinlocks differ
from FreeBSD spinlocks in the way they block preemption. FreeBSD
spinlocks use critical_enter(), which masks off _all_ interrupts.
This prevents any other threads from being scheduled, but it also
prevents ISRs from running. In Windows, preemption is achieved by
raising the processor IRQL to DISPATCH_LEVEL, which prevents other
threads from preempting you, but does _not_ prevent device ISRs
from running. (This is essentially what Solaris calls dispatcher
locks.) The Windows spinlock itself (kspin_lock) is just an integer
value which is atomically set when you acquire the lock and atomically
cleared when you release it.
FreeBSD doesn't have IRQ levels, so we have to cheat a little by
using thread priorities: normal thread priority is PASSIVE_LEVEL,
lowest interrupt thread priority is DISPATCH_LEVEL, highest thread
priority is DEVICE_LEVEL (PI_REALTIME) and critical_enter() is
HIGH_LEVEL. In practice, only PASSIVE_LEVEL and DISPATCH_LEVEL
matter to us. The immediate benefit of all this is that I no
longer have to rely on a mutex pool.
Now, I'm sure many people will be seized by the urge to criticize
me for doing an end run around our own spinlock implementation, but
it makes more sense to do it this way. Well, it does to me anyway.
Overview of the changes:
- Properly implement hal_lock(), hal_unlock(), hal_irql(),
hal_raise_irql() and hal_lower_irql() so that they more closely
resemble their Windows counterparts. The IRQL is determined by
thread priority.
- Make ntoskrnl_lock_dpc() and ntoskrnl_unlock_dpc() do what they do
in Windows, which is to atomically set/clear the lock value. These
routines are designed to be called from DISPATCH_LEVEL, and are
actually half of the work involved in acquiring/releasing spinlocks.
- Add FASTCALL1(), FASTCALL2() and FASTCALL3() macros/wrappers
that allow us to call a _fastcall function in spite of the fact
that our version of gcc doesn't support __attribute__((__fastcall__))
yet. The macros take 1, 2 or 3 arguments, respectively. We need
to call hal_lock(), hal_unlock() etc... ourselves, but can't really
invoke the function directly. I could have just made the underlying
functions native routines and put _fastcall wrappers around them for
the benefit of Windows binaries, but that would create needless bloat.
- Remove ndis_mtxpool and all references to it. We don't need it
anymore.
- Re-implement the NdisSpinLock routines so that they use hal_lock()
and friends like they do in Windows.
- Use the new spinlock methods for handling lookaside lists and
linked list updates in place of the mutex locks that were there
before.
- Remove mutex locking from ndis_isr() and ndis_intrhand() since they're
already called with ndis_intrmtx held in if_ndis.c.
- Put ndis_destroy_lock() code under explicit #ifdef notdef/#endif.
It turns out there are some drivers which stupidly free the memory
in which their spinlocks reside before calling ndis_destroy_lock()
on them (touch-after-free bug). The ADMtek wireless driver
is guilty of this faux pas. (Why this doesn't clobber Windows I
have no idea.)
- Make NdisDprAcquireSpinLock() and NdisDprReleaseSpinLock() into
real functions instead of aliasing them to NdisAcaquireSpinLock()
and NdisReleaseSpinLock(). The Dpr routines use
KeAcquireSpinLockAtDpcLevel() level and KeReleaseSpinLockFromDpcLevel(),
which acquires the lock without twiddling the IRQL.
- In ndis_linksts_done(), do _not_ call ndis_80211_getstate(). Some
drivers may call the status/status done callbacks as the result of
setting an OID: ndis_80211_getstate() gets OIDs, which means we
might cause the driver to recursively access some of its internal
structures unexpectedly. The ndis_ticktask() routine will call
ndis_80211_getstate() for us eventually anyway.
- Fix the channel setting code a little in ndis_80211_setstate(),
and initialize the channel to IEEE80211_CHAN_ANYC. (The Microsoft
spec says you're not supposed to twiddle the channel in BSS mode;
I may need to enforce this later.) This fixes the problems I was
having with the ADMtek adm8211 driver: we were setting the channel
to a non-standard default, which would cause it to fail to associate
in BSS mode.
- Use hal_raise_irql() to raise our IRQL to DISPATCH_LEVEL when
calling certain miniport routines, per the Microsoft documentation.
I think that's everything. Hopefully, other than fixing the ADMtek
driver, there should be no apparent change in behavior.
