on i386 and amd64 machines. The overall process is that /boot/pmbr lives
in the PMBR (similar to /boot/mbr for MBR disks) and is responsible for
locating and loading /boot/gptboot. /boot/gptboot is similar to /boot/boot
except that it groks GPT rather than MBR + bsdlabel. Unlike /boot/boot,
/boot/gptboot lives in its own dedicated GPT partition with a new
"FreeBSD boot" type. This partition does not have a fixed size in that
/boot/pmbr will load the entire partition into the lower 640k. However,
it is limited in that it can only be 545k. That's still a lot better than
the current 7.5k limit for boot2 on MBR. gptboot mostly acts just like
boot2 in that it reads /boot.config and loads up /boot/loader. Some more
details:
- Include uuid_equal() and uuid_is_nil() in libstand.
- Add a new 'boot' command to gpt(8) which makes a GPT disk bootable using
/boot/pmbr and /boot/gptboot. Note that the disk must have some free
space for the boot partition.
- This required exposing the backend of the 'add' function as a
gpt_add_part() function to the rest of gpt(8). 'boot' uses this to
create a boot partition if needed.
- Don't cripple cgbase() in the UFS boot code for /boot/gptboot so that
it can handle a filesystem > 1.5 TB.
- /boot/gptboot has a simple loader (gptldr) that doesn't do any I/O
unlike boot1 since /boot/pmbr loads all of gptboot up front. The
C portion of gptboot (gptboot.c) has been repocopied from boot2.c.
The primary changes are to parse the GPT to find a root filesystem
and to use 64-bit disk addresses. Currently gptboot assumes that the
first UFS partition on the disk is the / filesystem, but this algorithm
will likely be improved in the future.
- Teach the biosdisk driver in /boot/loader to understand GPT tables.
GPT partitions are identified as 'disk0pX:' (e.g. disk0p2:) which is
similar to the /dev names the kernel uses (e.g. /dev/ad0p2).
- Add a new "freebsd-boot" alias to g_part() for the new boot UUID.

what I have so far)
the PCIOCGETCONF, PCIOCREAD and PCIOCWRITE IOCTLs, which was broken
with the introduction of PCI domain support.
As the size of struct pci_conf_io wasn't changed with that commit,
this unfortunately requires the ABI of PCIOCGETCONF to be broken
again in order to be able to provide backwards compatibility to
the old version of that IOCTL.

from Mac OS X Leopard--rationalize naming for entry points to
the following general forms:
mac_<object>_<method/action>
mac_<object>_check_<method/action>
The previous naming scheme was inconsistent and mostly
reversed from the new scheme. Also, make object types more
consistent and remove spaces from object types that contain
multiple parts ("posix_sem" -> "posixsem") to make mechanical
parsing easier. Introduce a new "netinet" object type for
certain IPv4/IPv6-related methods. Also simplify, slightly,
some entry point names.
All MAC policy modules will need to be recompiled, and modules
not updates as part of this commit will need to be modified to
conform to the new KPI.

on duplicated code and support 64-bit LBAs for GPT.
- The code to manage an EDD or C/H/S I/O request are now in their own
routines. The EDD routine now handles a full 64-bit LBA instead of
truncating LBAs to the lower 32-bits. (MBRs and BSD labels only
have 32-bit LBAs anyway, so the only LBAs ever passed down were 32-bit).
- All of the bounce buffer and retry logic duplicated in bd_read() and
bd_write() are merged into a single bd_io() routine that takes an
extra direction argument. bd_read() and bd_write() are now simple
wrappers around bd_io().
- If a disk supports EDD then always use it rather than only using it if
the cylinder is > 1023. Other parts of the boot code already do
something similar to this. Also, GPT just uses LBAs, so for a GPT disk
it's probably best to ignore C/H/S completely. Always using EDD when
it is supported by a disk is an easy way to accomplish this.

After discussions with jeff, alc, (various Ironport people), david Xu,
and mostly Alfred (who found the problem) it has been demonstrated that this
is not needed for our implementations of threads and represents a real
(as in we've seen it happen a lot) deadlock danger.
Several points:
Since forking multiple threads is not allowed, and posix states that
any mutexes owned by othre threads wilol be owned in the child by
phantom threads, and therads shouldn't ba accessing shared structures without
protection, It can be proved that if this leads to the child process accessing
inconsistent data, it's a programming error.
The mode of thread_single() being used in fork() is the wrong one.
It is using SINGLE_NO_EXIT when it should be using SINGLE_BOUNDARY.
Even if this we used, System processes have no need to do it as they have
no userland to get inconsistent.
This commmit first fixes the above bugs to get tehm correct in CVS.
then removes them with #ifdef.
This is so that history contains the corrected version should it
be needed in the future.
This code may be needed if we implement the forkall() syscall from
Solaris. It may be needed for other non-posix thread libraries
at some time in the future, so let the code sit for a short while
while I do some work on it anyhow.
This removes a reproducible lockup in NFS.
It may be argued that maybe doing a fork while holding a vnode lock may
not be the best idea in th efirst place but it shouldn't cause a deadlock.
The removal has been running under soak test for several days now.
This removal should be seriously considered for 7.0 and RELENG_6.
Note. There is code in the core-dumping code that may have a similar problem
with coredumping threaded processes

Specifically, if two threads were doing concurrent lookups and the existing
gateway was marked down, the the first thread would drop a reference on the
gateway route and then unlock the "root" route while it tried to allocate
a new route. The second thread could then also drop a reference on the
same gateway route resulting in a reference underflow. Fix this by
clearing the gateway route pointer after dropping the reference count but
before dropping the lock. Secondly, in this same case, the second thread
would overwrite the gateway route pointer w/o free'ing a reference to the
route installed by the first thread. In practice this would probably just
fix a lost reference that would result in a route never being freed.
This fixes panics observed in rt_check() and rtexpunge().

This is much simpler than for ffs since there are many fewer places
where we need to choose between a delayed write and a sync write --
just 5 in msdosfs and more than 30 in ffs.
This is more complete and correct than in ffs. Several places in ffs
are are still missing the choice. ffs_update() has a layering violation
that breaks callers which want to force a sync update (mainly fsync(2)
and O_SYNC write(2)).
However, fsync(2) and O_SYNC write(2) are still more broken than in
ffs, since they are broken for default (non-sync non-async) mounts
too. Both fail to sync the FAT in all cases, and both fail to sync
the directory entry in some cases after losing a race. Async everything
is probably safer than the half-baked sync of metadata given by default
mounts.
us to scale up to sb_max, aka kern.ipc.maxsockbuf.
We do this because there are broken firewalls that will corrupt the window
scale option, leading to the other endpoint believing that our advertised
window is unscaled. At scale factors larger than 5 the unscaled window will
drop below 1500 bytes, leading to serious problems when traversing these
broken firewalls.
With the default maxsockbuf of 256K, a scale factor of 3 will be chosen by
this algorithm. Those who choose a larger maxsockbuf should watch out
for the compatiblity problems mentioned above.
