The AR5416 and later TX descriptors have new fields for supporting
11n bits (eg 20/40mhz mode, short/long GI) and enabling/disabling
RTS/CTS protection per rate.
These functions will be responsible for initialising the TX descriptors
for the AR5416 and later chips for both HT and legacy frames.
Beacon frames will remain using the non-11n TX descriptor setup for now;
Linux ath9k does much the same.
Note that these functions aren't yet used anywhere; a few more framework
changes are needed before all of the right rate information is available
for TX.
There's two reasons for this:
* the raw and non-raw TX path shares a lot of duplicate code which should be
refactored;
* the 11n-ready chip TX path needs a little reworking.
sys/dev/ath/ath_hal/ar5416/ is getting very crowded and further
commits will make it even more crowded. Now is a good time to
shuffle these files out before any more extensive work is done
on them.

chipset code will eventually live there.

Hhook provides a way for kernel subsystems to export hook points that Khelp
modules can hook to provide enhanced or new functionality to the kernel. The
KPI has been designed to ensure hook points pose no noticeable overhead when
no hook functions are registered.
- Introduce the Khelp (Kernel Helpers) KPI. Khelp provides a framework for
managing Khelp modules, which indirectly use the Hhook KPI to register their
hook functions with hook points of interest within the kernel. Khelp modules
aim to provide a structured way to dynamically extend the kernel at runtime in
an ABI preserving manner. Depending on the subsystem providing hook points, a
Khelp module may be able to associate per-object data for maintaining relevant
state between hook calls.
- pjd's Object Specific Data (OSD) KPI is used to manage the per-object data
allocated to Khelp modules. Create a new "OSD_KHELP" OSD type for use by the
Khelp framework.
- Bump __FreeBSD_version to 900028 to mark the introduction of the new KPIs.

This includes support in the kernel, camcontrol(8), libcam and the mps(4)
driver for SMP passthrough.
The CAM SCSI probe code has been modified to fetch Inquiry VPD page 0x00
to determine supported pages, and will now fetch page 0x83 in addition to
page 0x80 if supported.
Add two new CAM CCBs, XPT_SMP_IO, and XPT_GDEV_ADVINFO. The SMP CCB is
intended for SMP requests and responses. The ADVINFO is currently used to
fetch cached VPD page 0x83 data from the transport layer, but is intended
to be extensible to fetch other types of device-specific data.
SMP-only devices are not currently represented in the CAM topology, and so
the current semantics are that the SIM will route SMP CCBs to either the
addressed device, if it contains an SMP target, or its parent, if it
contains an SMP target. (This is noted in cam_ccb.h, since it will change
later once we have the ability to have SMP-only devices in CAM's topology.)
smp_all.c,
smp_all.h: New helper routines for SMP. This includes
SMP request building routines, response parsing
routines, error decoding routines, and structure
definitions for a number of SMP commands.
libcam/Makefile: Add smp_all.c to libcam, so that SMP functionality
is available to userland applications.
camcontrol.8,
camcontrol.c: Add smp passthrough support to camcontrol. Several
new subcommands are now available:
'smpcmd' functions much like 'cmd', except that it
allows the user to send generic SMP commands.
'smprg' sends the SMP report general command, and
displays the decoded output. It will automatically
fetch extended output if it is available.
'smppc' sends the SMP phy control command, with any
number of potential options. Among other things,
this allows the user to reset a phy on a SAS
expander, or disable a phy on an expander.
'smpmaninfo' sends the SMP report manufacturer
information and displays the decoded output.
'smpphylist' displays a list of phys on an
expander, and the CAM devices attached to those
phys, if any.
cam.h,
cam.c: Add a status value for SMP errors
(CAM_SMP_STATUS_ERROR).
Add a missing description for CAM_SCSI_IT_NEXUS_LOST.
Add support for SMP commands to cam_error_string().
cam_ccb.h: Rename the CAM_DIR_RESV flag to CAM_DIR_BOTH. SMP
commands are by nature bi-directional, and we may
need to support bi-directional SCSI commands later.
Add the XPT_SMP_IO CCB. Since SMP commands are
bi-directional, there are pointers for both the
request and response.
Add a fill routine for SMP CCBs.
Add the XPT_GDEV_ADVINFO CCB. This is currently
used to fetch cached page 0x83 data from the
transport later, but is extensible to fetch many
other types of data.
cam_periph.c: Add support in cam_periph_mapmem() for XPT_SMP_IO
and XPT_GDEV_ADVINFO CCBs.
cam_xpt.c: Add support for executing XPT_SMP_IO CCBs.
cam_xpt_internal.h: Add fields for VPD pages 0x00 and 0x83 in struct
cam_ed.
scsi_all.c: Add scsi_get_sas_addr(), a function that parses
VPD page 0x83 data and pulls out a SAS address.
scsi_all.h: Add VPD page 0x00 and 0x83 structures, and a
prototype for scsi_get_sas_addr().
scsi_pass.c: Add support for mapping buffers in XPT_SMP_IO and
XPT_GDEV_ADVINFO CCBs.
scsi_xpt.c: In the SCSI probe code, first ask the device for
VPD page 0x00. If any VPD pages are supported,
that page is required to be implemented. Based on
the response, we may probe for the serial number
(page 0x80) or device id (page 0x83).
Add support for the XPT_GDEV_ADVINFO CCB.
sys/conf/files: Add smp_all.c.
mps.c: Add support for passing in a uio in mps_map_command(),
so we can map a S/G list at once.
Add support for SMP passthrough commands in
mps_data_cb(). SMP is a special case, because the
first buffer in the S/G list is outbound and the
second buffer is inbound.
Add support for warning the user if the busdma code
comes back with more buffers than will work for the
command. This will, for example, help the user
determine why an SMP command failed if busdma comes
back with three buffers.
mps_pci.c: Add sys/uio.h.
mps_sas.c: Add the SAS address and the parent handle to the
list of fields we pull from device page 0 and cache
in struct mpssas_target. These are needed for SMP
passthrough.
Add support for the XPT_SMP_IO CCB. For now, this
CCB is routed to the addressed device if it supports
SMP, or to its parent if it does not and the parent
does. This is necessary because CAM does not
currently support SMP-only nodes in the topology.
Make SMP passthrough support conditional on
__FreeBSD_version >= 900026. This will make it
easier to MFC this change to the driver without
MFCing the CAM changes as well.
mps_user.c: Un-staticize mpi_init_sge() so we can use it for
the SMP passthrough code.
mpsvar.h: Add a uio and iovecs into struct mps_command for
SMP passthrough commands.
Add a cm_max_segs field to struct mps_command so
that we can warn the user if busdma comes back with
too many segments.
Clear the cm_reply when a command gets freed. If
it is not cleared, reply frames will eventually get
freed into the pool multiple times and corrupt the
pool. (This fix is from scottl.)
Add a prototype for mpi_init_sge().
sys/param.h: Bump __FreeBSD_version to 900026 for the for the
inclusion of the XPT_GDEV_ADVINFO and XPT_SMP_IO
CAM CCBs.

- Add a KPI and supporting infrastructure to allow modular congestion control
algorithms to be used in the net stack. Algorithms can maintain per-connection
state if required, and connections maintain their own algorithm pointer, which
allows different connections to concurrently use different algorithms. The
TCP_CONGESTION socket option can be used with getsockopt()/setsockopt() to
programmatically query or change the congestion control algorithm respectively
from within an application at runtime.
- Integrate the framework with the TCP stack in as least intrusive a manner as
possible. Care was also taken to develop the framework in a way that should
allow integration with other congestion aware transport protocols (e.g. SCTP)
in the future. The hope is that we will one day be able to share a single set
of congestion control algorithm modules between all congestion aware transport
protocols.
- Introduce a new congestion recovery (TF_CONGRECOVERY) state into the TCP stack
and use it to decouple the meaning of recovery from a congestion event and
recovery from packet loss (TF_FASTRECOVERY) a la RFC2581. ECN and delay based
congestion control protocols don't generally need to recover from packet loss
and need a different way to note a congestion recovery episode within the
stack.
- Remove the net.inet.tcp.newreno sysctl, which simplifies some portions of code
and ensures the stack always uses the appropriate mechanisms for recovering
from packet loss during a congestion recovery episode.
- Extract the NewReno congestion control algorithm from the TCP stack and
massage it into module form. NewReno is always built into the kernel and will
remain the default algorithm for the forseeable future. Implementations of
additional different algorithms will become available in the near future.
- Bump __FreeBSD_version to 900025 and note in UPDATING that rebuilding code
that relies on the size of "struct tcpcb" is required.

Extend the Xen blkif API: Negotiable request size and number of
requests.
This change extends the information recorded in the XenStore
allowing block front/back devices to negotiate for optimal I/O
parameters. This has been achieved without sacrificing backward
compatibility with drivers that are unaware of these protocol
enhancements. The extensions center around the connection protocol
which now includes these additions:
o The back-end device publishes its maximum supported values for,
request I/O size, the number of page segments that can be
associated with a request, the maximum number of requests that
can be concurrently active, and the maximum number of pages that
can be in the shared request ring. These values are published
before the back-end enters the XenbusStateInitWait state.
o The front-end waits for the back-end to enter either the InitWait
or Initialize state. At this point, the front end limits it's
own capabilities to the lesser of the values it finds published
by the backend, it's own maximums, or, should any back-end data
be missing in the store, the values supported by the original
protocol. It then initializes it's internal data structures
including allocation of the shared ring, publishes its maximum
capabilities to the XenStore and transitions to the Initialized
state.
o The back-end waits for the front-end to enter the Initalized
state. At this point, the back end limits it's own capabilities
to the lesser of the values it finds published by the frontend,
it's own maximums, or, should any front-end data be missing in
the store, the values supported by the original protocol. It
then initializes it's internal data structures, attaches to the
shared ring and transitions to the Connected state.
o The front-end waits for the back-end to enter the Connnected
state, transitions itself to the connected state, and can
commence I/O.
Although an updated front-end driver must be aware of the back-end's
InitWait state, the back-end has been coded such that it can
tolerate a front-end that skips this step and transitions directly
to the Initialized state without waiting for the back-end.
sys/xen/interface/io/blkif.h:
o Increase BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST to 255. This is
the maximum number possible without changing the blkif
request header structure (nr_segs is a uint8_t).
o Add two new constants:
BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_HEADER_BLOCK, and
BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_SEGMENT_BLOCK. These respectively
indicate the number of segments that can fit in the first
ring-buffer entry of a request, and for each subsequent
(sg element only) ring-buffer entry associated with the
"header" ring-buffer entry of the request.
o Add the blkif_request_segment_t typedef for segment
elements.
o Add the BLKRING_GET_SG_REQUEST() macro which wraps the
RING_GET_REQUEST() macro and returns a properly cast
pointer to an array of blkif_request_segment_ts.
o Add the BLKIF_SEGS_TO_BLOCKS() macro which calculates the
number of ring entries that will be consumed by a blkif
request with the given number of segments.
sys/xen/blkif.h:
o Update for changes in interface/io/blkif.h macros.
o Update the BLKIF_MAX_RING_REQUESTS() macro to take the
ring size as an argument to allow this calculation on
multi-page rings.
o Add a companion macro to BLKIF_MAX_RING_REQUESTS(),
BLKIF_RING_PAGES(). This macro determines the number of
ring pages required in order to support a ring with the
supplied number of request blocks.
sys/dev/xen/blkback/blkback.c:
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/block.h:
o Negotiate with the other-end with the following limits:
Reqeust Size: MAXPHYS
Max Segments: (MAXPHYS/PAGE_SIZE) + 1
Max Requests: 256
Max Ring Pages: Sufficient to support Max Requests with
Max Segments.
o Dynamically allocate request pools and segemnts-per-request.
o Update ring allocation/attachment code to support a
multi-page shared ring.
o Update routines that access the shared ring to handle
multi-block requests.
sys/dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c:
o Track blkfront allocations in a blkfront driver specific
malloc pool.
o Strip out XenStore transaction retry logic in the
connection code. Transactions only need to be used when
the update to multiple XenStore nodes must be atomic.
That is not the case here.
o Fully disable blkif_resume() until it can be fixed
properly (it didn't work before this change).
o Destroy bus-dma objects during device instance tear-down.
o Properly handle backend devices with powef-of-2 sector
sizes larger than 512b.

sys/dev/xen/blkfront/block.h:
Fix various bugs in blkfront.
o gnttab_alloc_grant_references() returns 0 for success and
non-zero for failure. The check for < 0 is a leftover
Linuxism.
o When we negotiate with blkback and have to reduce some of our
capabilities, print out the original and reduced capability before
changing the local capability. So the user now gets the correct
information.
o Fix blkif_restart_queue_callback() formatting. Make sure we hold
the mutex in that function before calling xb_startio().
o Fix a couple of KASSERT()s.
o Fix a check in the xb_remove_* macro to be a little more specific.
sys/xen/gnttab.h:
sys/xen/gnttab.c:
Define GNTTAB_LIST_END publicly as GRANT_REF_INVALID.
sys/dev/xen/netfront/netfront.c:

sys/xen/gnttab.h:
sys/xen/gnttab.c:
Add the gnttab_end_foreign_access_references() API.
This API allows a client to batch the release of an array of grant
references, instead of coding a private for loop. The implementation
takes advantage of this batching to reduce lock overhead to one
acquisition and release per-batch instead of per-freed grant reference.
While here, reduce the duration the gnttab_list_lock is held during
gnttab_free_grant_references() operations. The search to find the
tail of the incoming free list does not rely on global state and so
can be performed without holding the lock.

This allows an HVM domain to serve back end devices to other domains.
This API is already implemented for PV mode.
o Synchronize the API between HVM and PV.
sys/dev/xen/xenpci/xenpci.c:
o Scan the full region of CPUID space in which the Xen VMM interface
may be implemented. On systems using SuSE as a Dom0 where the
Viridian API is also exported, the VMM interface is above the region
we used to search.
o Pass through bus_alloc_resource() calls so that XenBus drivers
attaching on an HVM system can allocate unused physical address

facility.

resides at the head of the ring.
Add the __RING_PAGES() macro which calculates the number of shared

a remote domain to which one of our driver instances is attaching.
o Publish all required state to the XenStore on device detach and
failure. The majority of the missing functionality was for serving
as a back end since the typical "hot-plug" scripts in Dom0 don't
handle the case of cleaning up for a "service domain" that is not

writing event timer drivers, for choosing best possible drivers by machine
independent code and for operating them to supply kernel with hardclock(),
statclock() and profclock() events in unified fashion on various hardware.
Infrastructure provides support for both per-CPU (independent for every CPU
core) and global timers in periodic and one-shot modes. MI management code
at this moment uses only periodic mode, but one-shot mode use planned for
later, as part of tickless kernel project.
For this moment infrastructure used on i386 and amd64 architectures. Other
archs are welcome to follow, while their current operation should not be
affected.
This patch updates existing drivers (i8254, RTC and LAPIC) for the new
order, and adds event timers support into the HPET driver. These drivers
have different capabilities:
LAPIC - per-CPU timer, supports periodic and one-shot operation, may
freeze in C3 state, calibrated on first use, so may be not exactly precise.
HPET - depending on hardware can work as per-CPU or global, supports
periodic and one-shot operation, usually provides several event timers.
i8254 - global, limited to periodic mode, because same hardware used also
as time counter.
RTC - global, supports only periodic mode, set of frequencies in Hz
limited by powers of 2.
Depending on hardware capabilities, drivers preferred in following orders,
either LAPIC, HPETs, i8254, RTC or HPETs, LAPIC, i8254, RTC.
User may explicitly specify wanted timers via loader tunables or sysctls:
kern.eventtimer.timer1 and kern.eventtimer.timer2.
If requested driver is unavailable or unoperational, system will try to
replace it. If no more timers available or "NONE" specified for second,
system will operate using only one timer, multiplying it's frequency by few
times and uing respective dividers to honor hz, stathz and profhz values,
set during initial setup.
passing through. Modifications are restricted to a subset of C language
operations on unsigned integers of 8, 16, 32 or 64 bit size.
These are: set to new value (=), addition (+=), subtraction (-=),
multiplication (*=), division (/=), negation (= -), bitwise AND (&=),
bitwise OR (|=), bitwise eXclusive OR (^=), shift left (<<=),
shift right (>>=). Several operations are all applied to a packet
sequentially in order they were specified by user.

The driver is stub. It just creates device entry and feeds
reassembled packets from hardware into it.
If in future we would port wsmouse(4) from NetBSD, or make
sysmouse(4) to support absolute motion events, then the driver
can be extended to act as system mouse. Meanwhile, it just
presents a /dev/uep0, that can be utilized by X driver, that
I am going to commit to ports tree soon.
The name for the driver is chosen to be the same as in NetBSD,
however, due to different USB stacks this driver isn't a port.
Extend struct sysvec with three new elements:
sv_fetch_syscall_args - the method to fetch syscall arguments from
usermode into struct syscall_args. The structure is machine-depended
(this might be reconsidered after all architectures are converted).
sv_set_syscall_retval - the method to set a return value for usermode
from the syscall. It is a generalization of
cpu_set_syscall_retval(9) to allow ABIs to override the way to set a
return value.
sv_syscallnames - the table of syscall names.
Use sv_set_syscall_retval in kern_sigsuspend() instead of hardcoding
the call to cpu_set_syscall_retval().
The new functions syscallenter(9) and syscallret(9) are provided that
use sv_*syscall* pointers and contain the common repeated code from
the syscall() implementations for the architecture-specific syscall
trap handlers.
Syscallenter() fetches arguments, calls syscall implementation from
ABI sysent table, and set up return frame. The end of syscall
bookkeeping is done by syscallret().
Take advantage of single place for MI syscall handling code and
implement ptrace_lwpinfo pl_flags PL_FLAG_SCE, PL_FLAG_SCX and
PL_FLAG_EXEC. The SCE and SCX flags notify the debugger that the
thread is stopped at syscall entry or return point respectively. The
EXEC flag augments SCX and notifies debugger that the process address
space was changed by one of exec(2)-family syscalls.
The i386, amd64, sparc64, sun4v, powerpc and ia64 syscall()s are
changed to use syscallenter()/syscallret(). MIPS and arm are not
converted and use the mostly unchanged syscall() implementation.

driver for CAM ATA subsystem. This driver supports same hardware as
atamarvell, ataadaptec and atamvsata drivers from ata(4), but provides
many additional features, such as NCQ, PMP, etc.
