AIO write requests for a TOE socket on a Chelsio T4+ adapter can now
DMA directly from the user-supplied buffer. This is implemented by
wiring the pages backing the user-supplied buffer and queueing special
mbufs backed by raw VM pages to the socket buffer. The TOE code
recognizes these special mbufs and builds a sglist from the VM page
array associated with the mbuf when queueing a work request to the TOE.
Because these mbufs do not have an associated virtual address, m_data
is not valid. Thus, the AIO handler does not invoke sosend() directly
for these mbufs but instead inlines portions of sosend_generic() and
tcp_usr_send().
An aiotx_buffer structure is used to describe the user buffer (e.g.
it holds the array of VM pages and a reference to the AIO job). The
special mbufs reference this structure via m_ext. Note that a single
job might be split across multiple mbufs (e.g. if it is larger than
the socket buffer size). The 'ext_arg2' member of each mbuf gives an
offset relative to the backing aiotx_buffer. The AIO job associated
with an aiotx_buffer structure is completed when the last reference to
the structure is released.
Zero-copy aio_write()'s for connections associated with a given
adapter can be enabled/disabled at runtime via the
'dev.t[45]nex.N.toe.tx_zcopy' sysctl.

returning EAGAIN if they aren't available when the user tries to program
a filter. Do this after validating the filter so that the driver
doesn't bring up the queues if it doesn't have to.
Chelsio NICs are a bit unique compared to some other NICs in that they
expose different functionality on different physical functions. In
particular, PF4 is used to manage the NIC interfaces ('t4nex' and 't5nex').
However, PF4 is not able to create VF devices. Instead, VFs are only
supported by physical functions 0 through 3. This commit adds 't4iov'
and 't5iov' drivers that attach to PF0-3.
One extra wrinkle is that the iov devices cannot enable SR-IOV until the
firwmare has been initialized by the main PF4 driver. To handle this
case, a new t4_if kobj interface has been added to permit cross-calls
between the PF drivers. The PF4 driver notifies sibling drivers when it
is fully attached. It also requests sibling drivers to detach before it
detaches. Sibling drivers query the PF4 driver during their attach
routine to see if it is attached. If not, the sibling drivers defer
their attach actions until the PF4 driver informs them it is attached.
VF devices are associated with a single port on the NIC. VF devices
created from PF0 are associated with the first port on the NIC, VFs
from PF1 are associated with the second port, etc. VF devices can
only be created from a PF device that has an associated port. Thus,
on a 2-port card, VFs are only supported on PF0 and PF1.

b) Remove all CPL handler tables from struct adapter. This reduces its
size by around 2KB. All handlers are now registered at MOD_LOAD instead
of attach or some kind of initialization/activation. The registration
functions do not need an adapter parameter any more.
c) Add per-iq handlers to deal with CPLs whose destination cannot be
determined solely from the opcode. There are 2 such CPLs in use right
now: SET_TCB_RPL and L2T_WRITE_RPL. The base driver continues to send
filter and L2T_WRITEs over the mgmtq and solicits the reply on fwq.
t4_tom (including the DDP code) now uses the port's ctrlq to send
L2T_WRITEs and SET_TCB_FIELDs and solicits the reply on an ofld_rxq.
fwq and ofld_rxq have different handlers that know what kind of tid to
expect in the reply. Update t4_write_l2e and callers to to support any
wrq/iq combination.

vcxgbe/vcxl interfaces and retire the 'n' interfaces. The main
cxgbe/cxl interfaces and tunables related to them are not affected by
any of this and will continue to operate as usual.
The driver used to create an additional 'n' interface for every
cxgbe/cxl interface if "device netmap" was in the kernel. The 'n'
interface shared the wire with the main interface but was otherwise
autonomous (with its own MAC address, etc.). It did not have normal
tx/rx but had a specialized netmap-only data path. r291665 added
another set of virtual interfaces (the 'v' interfaces) to the driver.
These had normal tx/rx but no netmap support.
This revision consolidates the features of both the interfaces into the
'v' interface which now has a normal data path, TOE support, and native
netmap support. The 'v' interfaces need to be created explicitly with
the hw.cxgbe.num_vis tunable. This means "device netmap" will not
result in the automatic creation of any virtual interfaces.
The following tunables can be used to override the default number of
queues allocated for each 'v' interface. nofld* = 0 will disable TOE on
the virtual interface and nnm* = 0 to will disable native netmap
support.
# number of normal NIC queues
hw.cxgbe.ntxq_vi
hw.cxgbe.nrxq_vi
# number of TOE queues
hw.cxgbe.nofldtxq_vi
hw.cxgbe.nofldrxq_vi
# number of netmap queues
hw.cxgbe.nnmtxq_vi
hw.cxgbe.nnmrxq_vi
hw.cxgbe.nnm{t,r}xq{10,1}g tunables have been removed.
--- tl;dr version ---
The workflow for netmap on cxgbe starting with FreeBSD 11 is:
1) "device netmap" in the kernel config.
2) "hw.cxgbe.num_vis=2" in loader.conf. num_vis > 2 is ok too, you'll
end up with multiple autonomous netmap-capable interfaces for every
port.
3) "dmesg | grep vcxl | grep netmap" to verify that the interface has
netmap queues.
4) Use any of the 'v' interfaces for netmap. pkt-gen -i vcxl<n>... .
One major improvement is that the netmap interface has a normal data
path as expected.
5) Just ignore the cxl interfaces if you want to use netmap only. No
need to bring them up. The vcxl interfaces are completely independent
and everything should just work.

File and disk-backed I/O requests store counts of read/written disk
blocks in each AIO job so that they can be charged to the thread that
completes an AIO request via aio_return() or aio_waitcomplete(). This
change extends AIO jobs to store counts of received/sent messages and
updates socket backends to set these counts accordingly. Note that
the socket backends are careful to only charge a single messages for
each AIO request even though a single request on a blocking socket might
invoke sosend or soreceive multiple times. This is to mimic the
resource accounting of synchronous read/write.
Adjust the UNIX socketpair AIO test to verify that the message resource
usage counts update accordingly for aio_read and aio_write.

Inserting a full mbuf with an external cluster into the socket buffer
resulted in sbspace() returning -MLEN. However, since sb_hiwat is
unsigned, the -MLEN value was converted to unsigned in comparisons. As a
result, the socket buffer was never autosized. Note that sb_lowat is signed
to permit direct comparisons with sbspace(), but sb_hiwat is unsigned.
Follow suit with what tcp_output() does and compare the value of sbused()
with sb_hiwat instead.

This reduces the size of kaiocb slightly. I've also added some generic
fields that other backends can use in place of the BIO-specific fields.
Change the socket and Chelsio DDP backends to use 'backend3' instead of
abusing _aiocb_private.status directly. This confines the use of
_aiocb_private to the AIO internals in vfs_aio.c.

Other structures needed by prototypes in t4_tom.h are explicitly
declared in this file, so adding the prototype here seems most
consistent with existing code.
Chelsio's TCP offload engine supports direct DMA of received TCP payload
into wired user buffers. This feature is known as Direct-Data Placement.
However, to scale well the adapter needs to prepare buffers for DDP
before data arrives. aio_read() is more amenable to this requirement than
read() as applications often call read() only after data is available in
the socket buffer.
When DDP is enabled, TOE sockets use the recently added pru_aio_queue
protocol hook to claim aio_read(2) requests instead of letting them use
the default AIO socket logic. The DDP feature supports scheduling DMA
to two buffers at a time so that the second buffer is ready for use
after the first buffer is filled. The aio/DDP code optimizes the case
of an application ping-ponging between two buffers (similar to the
zero-copy bpf(4) code) by keeping the two most recently used AIO buffers
wired. If a buffer is reused, the aio/DDP code is able to reuse the
vm_page_t array as well as page pod mappings (a kind of MMU mapping the
Chelsio NIC uses to describe user buffers). The generation of the
vmspace of the calling process is used in conjunction with the user
buffer's address and length to determine if a user buffer matches a
previously used buffer. If an application queues a buffer for AIO that
does not match a previously used buffer then the least recently used
buffer is unwired before the new buffer is wired. This ensures that no
more than two user buffers per socket are ever wired.
Note that this feature is best suited to applications sending a steady
stream of data vs short bursts of traffic.

rounddown2 tends to produce longer lines than the original code
and when the code has a high indentation level it was not really
advantageous to do the replacement.
This tries to strike a balance between readability using the macros
and flexibility of having the expressions, so not everything is
converted.
The size of the reply can be different from the size of the command in
case a debug firmware asserts. fw_asrt() needs the entire reply in
