For received packets, an status of NDIS_STATUS_RESOURCES means we need
to copy the packet data and return the ndis_packet to the driver immediatel.
NDIS_STATUS_SUCCESS means we get to hold onto the packet, but we have
to set the status to NDIS_STATUS_PENDING so the driver knows we're
going to hang onto it for a while.
For transmit packets, NDIS_STATUS_PENDING means the driver will
asynchronously return the packet to us via the ndis_txeof() routine,
and NDIS_STATUS_SUCCESS means the driver sent the frame, and NDIS
(i.e. the OS) retains ownership of the packet and can free it

this driver by introducing a flag saying we already stopped the device.
On my Soekris net4801, this took a ping -i 0.001 from spending 80% of
time in interrupt handling to 10% (approx numbers).
This was a particular problem for the net4801 because the tree
interfaces share the same interrupt, but it would be a problem for
any configuration where an unused if_sis interface shares an interrupt
with a busy device.
Other drivers may have similar problems.

The log message for rev.1.160 of kern/uipc_syscalls.c and associated
changes only claimed to add restrict qualifiers (which have no effect in
the kernel so they probably shouldn't be added), but the following
interface changes were also made:
- caddr_t to `void *' and `struct sockaddr_t *'
- `int *' to `socklen_t *'.
These interface changes are not quite null, and this fix is quick (like
the changes in uipc_syscalls 1.160) because it uses bogus casts instead
of complete bounds-checked conversions.
Things should be fixed better when the conversions can be done without
using the stack gap. linux_check_hdrincl() already uses the stack gap
and is fixed completely though the type mismatches in it were not fatal
(there were only fatal type mismatches from unopaquing pointers to
[o]sockaddr't's -- the difference between accept()'s args and oaccept()'s
args is now non-opaque, but this is not reflected in their args structs).

supposed to be opaque to the driver, however it is exposed through
several macros which expect certain behavior. In my original
implementation, I used the mappedsystemva member of the structure
to hold a pointer to the buffer and bytecount to hold the length.
It turns out you must use the startva pointer to point to the
page containing the start of the buffer and set byteoffset to
the offset within the page where the buffer starts. So, for a buffer
with address 'baseva,' startva is baseva & ~(PAGE_SIZE -1) and
byteoffset is baseva & (PAGE_SIZE -1). We have to maintain this
convention everywhere that ndis_buffers are used.
Fortunately, Microsoft defines some macros for initializing and
manipulating NDIS_BUFFER structures in ntddk.h. I adapted some
of them for use here and used them where appropriate.

To speed up non-packetized CDB delivery in Rev B, all CDB
acks are "released" to the output sync as soon as the
command phase starts. There is only one problem with this
approach. If the target changes phase before all data are
sent, we have left over acks that can go out on the bus in
a data phase. Due to other chip contraints, this only
happens if the target goes to data-in, but if the acks go
out before we can test SDONE, we'll think that the transfer
has completed successfully. Work around this by taking
advantage of the 400ns or 800ns dead time between command
phase and the REQ of the new phase. If the transfer has
completed successfully, SCSIEN should fall *long* before we
see a phase change. We thus treat any phasemiss that

o When halting command channel DMA activity, we must
disable the DMA channel in all cases but an update
of the QOUTFIFO. The latter case is required so
that the sequencer will update its position in the
QOUTFIFO. Previously, we left the channel enabled
for all "push" DMAs. This left us vulnerable to
the sequencer handling an SCB push long after that
SCB was already processed manually by this routine.
o Correct the polarity of tests involving

One kludge for this __attribute__ ((regparm(3))), however this

used (regparm(2) assumes %eax and %edx). Another kludge is to
declare the two fastcall-ed args as local register variables and
explicitly assign them to %ecx and %edx, but experimentation showed
that gcc would not guard %ecx and %edx against being clobbered.
Thus, I came up with a 3rd kludge, which is to use some inline
assembly of the form:
void *arg1;
void *arg2;
__asm__("movl %%ecx, %%ecx" : "=c" (arg1));
__asm__("movl %%edx, %%edx" : "=d" (arg2));
This lets gcc know that we're going to reference %ecx and %edx and
that it should make an effort not to let it get trampled. This wastes
an instruction (movl %reg, %reg is a no-op) but insures proper
behavior. It's possible there's a better way to do this though:

subr_ntoskrnl.c: memcpy(), memset(), ExInterlockedPopEntrySList(),
ExInterlockedPushEntrySList().
The latter two are different from InterlockedPopEntrySList()
and InterlockedPushEntrySList() in that they accept a spinlock to
hold while executing, whereas the non-Ex routines use a lock
internal to ntoskrnl. I also modified ExInitializePagedLookasideList()
and ExInitializeNPagedLookasideList() to initialize mutex locks
within the lookaside structures. It seems that in NDIS 5.0,
the lookaside allocate/free routines ExInterlockedPopEntrySList()
and ExInterlockedPushEntrySList(), which require the use of the
per-lookaside spinlock, whereas in NDIS 5.1, the per-lookaside
spinlock is deprecated. We need to support both cases.
Note that I appear to be doing something wrong with
ExInterlockedPopEntrySList() and ExInterlockedPushEntrySList():
they don't appear to obtain proper pointers to their arguments,
so I'm probably doing something wrong in terms of their calling
convention (they're declared to be FASTCALL in Widnows, and I'm
not sure what that means for gcc). It happens that in my stub
lookaside implementation, they don't need to do any work anyway,
so for now I've hacked them to always return NULL, which avoids
corrupting the stack. I need to do this right though.

it's an error to set the buffer bytecount to anything larger than
the buffer's original allocation size, but anything less than that
is ok.
Also, in ndis_ptom(), use the same logic: if the bytecount is
larger than the allocation size, consider the bytecount invalid
and the allocation size as the packet fragment length (m_len)
instead of the bytecount.
This corrects a consistency problem between the Broadcom wireless
driver and some of the ethernet drivers I've tested: the ethernet
drivers all report the packet frag sizes in buf->nb_bytecount, but
the Broadcom wireless driver reports them in buf->nb_size. This
seems like a bug to me, but it clearly must work in Windows, so
we have to deal with it here too.
- The new sched_balance_groups() function does intra-group balancing while
sched_balance() balances the available groups.
- Pick a random time between 0 ticks and hz * 2 ticks to restart each
balancing process. Each balancer has its own timeout.
- Pick a random place in the list of groups to start the search for lowest
and highest group loads. This prevents us from prefering a group based on
numeric position.
- Use a nasty hack to stop us from preferring cpu 0. The problem is that
softclock always runs on cpu 0, so it always has a little extra load. We
ignore this load in the balancer for now. In the future softclock should
run on a random cpu and these hacks can go away.
is provided to NDIS via the the miniport characteristics structure
supplied in the call to NdisMRegisterMiniport(). But in NDIS 5.0
and earlier, you had to call NdisMRegisterAdapterShutdownHandler()
and supply both a function pointer and context pointer.
We try to handle both cases in ndis_shutdown_nic(). If the
driver registered a shutdown routine and a context,then used
that context, otherwise pass it the adapter context from
NdisMSetAttributesEx().
This fixes a panic on shutdown with the sample Intel 82559 e100bex.sys
driver from the Windows DDK.
function pointer
flag rather than explicitly halting if a lookup failed.
- Add a loop around the call to lookup() to traverse an array of
nul-terminated strings for possible paths to the boot loader. A double
nul character denotes the end of the list.
- Add a new message to say that the boot failed if all of the path lookups
for a boot loader file failed.
- Add '/boot/loader' as a second boot path. If you build an ISO using
risky options to mkisofs such as -U then the loader will be called
'/boot/loader' rather than '/BOOT/LOADER;0'. This allows cdboot to work
with such risky ISO images.
- Bump version to 1.2 to denote added functionality.
The basic idea as well as some of the code were provided by the submitter,
but I added some extra code to use a loop rather than hard-code just 2
possible paths.

Yes, it's what you think it is. Yes, you should run away now.
This is a special compatibility module for allowing Windows NDIS
miniport network drivers to be used with FreeBSD/x86. This provides
_binary_ NDIS compatibility (not source): you can run NDIS driver
code, but you can't build it. There are three main parts:
sys/compat/ndis: the NDIS compat API, which provides binary
compatibility functions for many routines in NDIS.SYS, HAL.dll
and ntoskrnl.exe in Windows (these are the three modules that
most NDIS miniport drivers use). The compat module also contains
a small PE relocator/dynalinker which relocates the Windows .SYS
image and then patches in our native routines.
sys/dev/if_ndis: the if_ndis driver wrapper. This module makes
use of the ndis compat API and can be compiled with a specially
prepared binary image file (ndis_driver_data.h) containing the
Windows .SYS image and registry key information parsed out of the
accompanying .INF file. Once if_ndis.ko is built, it can be loaded
and unloaded just like a native FreeBSD kenrel module.
usr.sbin/ndiscvt: a special utility that converts foo.sys and foo.inf
into an ndis_driver_data.h file that can be compiled into if_ndis.o.
Contains an .inf file parser graciously provided by Matt Dodd (and
mercilessly hacked upon by me) that strips out device ID info and
registry key info from a .INF file and packages it up with a binary
image array. The ndiscvt(8) utility also does some manipulation of
the segments within the .sys file to make life easier for the kernel
loader. (Doing the manipulation here saves the kernel code from having
to move things around later, which would waste memory.)
ndiscvt is only built for the i386 arch. Only files.i386 has been
updated, and none of this is turned on in GENERIC. It should probably
work on pc98. I have no idea about amd64 or ia64 at this point.
This is still a work in progress. I estimate it's about %85 done, but
I want it under CVS control so I can track subsequent changes. It has
been tested with exactly three drivers: the LinkSys LNE100TX v4 driver
(Lne100v4.sys), the sample Intel 82559 driver from the Windows DDK
(e100bex.sys) and the Broadcom BCM43xx wireless driver (bcmwl5.sys). It
still needs to have a net80211 stuff added to it. To use it, you would
do something like this:
# cd /sys/modules/ndis
# make; make load
# cd /sys/modules/if_ndis
# ndiscvt -i /path/to/foo.inf -s /path/to/foo.sys -o ndis_driver_data.h
# make; make load
# sysctl -a | grep ndis
All registry keys are mapped to sysctl nodes. Sometimes drivers refer
to registry keys that aren't mentioned in foo.inf. If this happens,
the NDIS API module creates sysctl nodes for these keys on the fly so
you can tweak them.
An example usage of the Broadcom wireless driver would be:
# sysctl hw.ndis0.EnableAutoConnect=1
# sysctl hw.ndis0.SSID="MY_SSID"
# sysctl hw.ndis0.NetworkType=0 (0 for bss, 1 for adhoc)
# ifconfig ndis0 <my ipaddr> netmask 0xffffff00 up
Things to be done:
- get rid of debug messages
- add in ndis80211 support
- defer transmissions until after a status update with
NDIS_STATUS_CONNECTED occurs
- Create smarter lookaside list support
- Split off if_ndis_pci.c and if_ndis_pccard.c attachments
- Make sure PCMCIA support works
- Fix ndiscvt to properly parse PCMCIA device IDs from INF files
- write ndisapi.9 man page
1. Use C99-style variable argument macros rather than GNU ones.
2. Don't cast id to ident_t. Its type is already ident_t and casting to
a union type is a constraint violation.

when using a KVM.
There is no actual solution possible, but this gets us pretty close.
Typically when switching back to a FreeBSD box and moving the mouse
wild data is produced, because the protocol's validation/checksum
system is extremely weak it is impossible to determine that we're
out of sync before dropping several bogus packets to user land.
The actual solution that appears to offer the best clamping of
jitter is to buffer the mouse packets if we've not seen mouse
activity for more than .5 seconds. Then waiting to flush that data
for 1/20th of a second. If within that 20th of a second we get any
packets that do fail the weak test we drop the entire queue and
back off accepting data from the mouse for 2 seconds and then repeat
the whole deal.
You can still get _some_ jitter, notably if you switch to the FreeBSD
box, then move the mouse just enough to generate one or two packets.
Those packets may be bogus, but may still pass the validity check.
One way to finally kill the problem once and for all is to check
the initial packets for "wild" values. Typically one sees packets
in the +/-60 range during normal operation, however when bogus data
is generated it's typically near the outer range of +/-120 or more,
those packets would be a good candidate for dropping or clamping.
I've been running with this for several weeks now and it has
significantly helped me stay sane even with a piece of junk Belkin
KVM causing wild jitter each and every time I switch.
Lastly I'd like to note that my experience with Windows shows me that
somehow the Microsoft PS/2 driver typically avoids this problem, but
that may only be possible when running the mouse in a dumb-ed down PS/2
mode that Belkin recommends on their site.
cpu are added to a group.
- Don't place a cpu into the kseq_idle bitmask until all cpus in that group
have idled.
- Prefer idle groups over idle group members in the new kseq_transfer()
function. In this way we will prefer to balance load across full cores
rather than add further load a partial core.
- Before a cpu goes idle, check the other group members for threads. Since
SMT cpus may freely share threads, this is cheap.
- SMT cores may be individually pinned and bound to now. This contrasts the
old mechanism where binding or pinning would have allowed a thread to run
on any available cpu.
- Remove some unnecessary logic from sched_switch(). Priority propagation
should be properly taken care of in sched_prio() now.
with the sendsig code in the MD area. It is not safe to assume that all
the register conventions will be the same. Also, the way of producing
32 bit code (.code32 directives) in this file is amd64 specific.
The split-up code is derived from the ia64 code originally.
Note that I have only compile-tested this, not actually run-tested it.
The ia64 side of the force is missing some significant chunks of signal
delivery code.
