gigabit ethernet adapters. This includes two single port cards
(single mode and multimode fiber) and two dual port cards (also single
mode and multimode fiber). SysKonnect is currently the only
vendor with a dual port gigabit ethernet NIC.
The ports on dual port adapters are treated as separate network
interfaces. Thus, if you have an SK-9844 dual port SX card, you
should have both sk0 and sk1 interfaces attached. Dual port cards
are implemented using two XMAC II chips connected to a single
SysKonnect GEnesis controller. Hence, dual port cards are really
one PCI device, as opposed to two separate PCI devices connected
through a PCI to PCI bridge. Note that SysKonnect's drivers use
the two ports for failover purposes rather that as two separate
interfaces, plus they don't support jumbo frames. This applies to
their Linux driver too. :)
Support is provided for hardware multicast filtering, BPF and
jumbo frames. The SysKonnect cards support TCP checksum offload
however this feature is not currently enabled (hopefully it will
be once we get checksum offload support).
There are still a few things that need to be implemeted, like
the ability to communicate with the on-board LM80 voltage/temperature
monitor, but I wanted to get the driver under CVS control and into
-current so people could bang on it.
A big thanks for SysKonnect for making all their programming info
for these cards (and for their FDDI and token ring cards) available

* buffer cache hash table now dynamically allocated. This will
have no effect on memory consumption for smaller systems and
will help scale the buffer cache for larger systems.
* minor enhancement to pmap_clearbit(). I noticed that
all the calls to it used constant arguments. Making
it an inline allows the constants to propogate to
deeper inlines and should produce better code.
* removal of inherent vfs_ioopt support through the emplacement
of appropriate #ifdef's, with John's permission. If we do not
find a use for it by the end of the year we will remove it entirely.
* removal of getnewbufloops* counters & sysctl's - no longer
necessary for debugging, getnewbuf() is now optimal.
* buffer hash table functions removed from sys/buf.h and localized
to vfs_bio.c
* VFS_BIO_NEED_DIRTYFLUSH flag and support code added
( bwillwrite() ), allowing processes to block when too many dirty
buffers are present in the system.
* removal of a softdep test in bdwrite() that is no longer necessary
now that bdwrite() no longer attempts to flush dirty buffers.
* slight optimization added to bqrelse() - there is no reason
to test for available buffer space on B_DELWRI buffers.
* addition of reverse-scanning code to vfs_bio_awrite().
vfs_bio_awrite() will attempt to locate clusterable areas
in both the forward and reverse direction relative to the
offset of the buffer passed to it. This will probably not
make much of a difference now, but I believe we will start
to rely on it heavily in the future if we decide to shift
some of the burden of the clustering closer to the actual
I/O initiation.
* Removal of the newbufcnt and lastnewbuf counters that Kirk
added. They do not fix any race conditions that haven't already
been fixed by the gbincore() test done after the only call
to getnewbuf(). getnewbuf() is a static, so there is no chance
of it being misused by other modules. ( Unless Kirk can think
of a specific thing that this code fixes. I went through it
very carefully and didn't see anything ).
* removal of VOP_ISLOCKED() check in flushbufqueues(). I do not
think this check is necessary, the buffer should flush properly
whether the vnode is locked or not. ( yes? ).
* removal of extra arguments passed to getnewbuf() that are not
necessary.
* missed cluster_wbuild() that had to be a cluster_wbuild_wb() in
vfs_cluster.c
* vn_write() now calls bwillwrite() *PRIOR* to locking the vnode,
which should greatly aid flushing operations in heavy load
situations - both the pageout and update daemons will be able
to operate more efficiently.
* removal of b_usecount. We may add it back in later but for now
it is useless. Prior implementations of the buffer cache never
had enough buffers for it to be useful, and current implementations
which make more buffers available might not benefit relative to
the amount of sophistication required to implement a b_usecount.
Straight LRU should work just as well, especially when most things
are VMIO backed. I expect that (even though John will not like
this assumption) directories will become VMIO backed some point soon.

This is supposed to be binary and source compatible with older

Except those applications that access hidden signal handler arguments

please let me know so that we take the opportunity to provide the

Also except application that use 'struct sigframe' directly. You need
to recompile gdb and doscmd. `make world` is recommended.
Example program that demonstrates how SA_SIGINFO and old-style FreeBSD
handlers (with their three args) may be used in the same process is at
http://www3.cons.org/tmp/fbsd-siginfo.c
Programs that use the old FreeBSD-style three arguments are easy to
change to SA_SIGINFO (although they don't need to, since the old style
will still work):
Old args to signal handler:
void handler_sn(int sig, int code, struct sigcontext *scp)
New args:
void handler_si(int sig, siginfo_t *si, void *third)
where:
old:code == new:second->si_code
old:scp == &(new:si->si_scp) /* Passed by value! */
The latter is also pointed to by new:third, but accessing via
si->si_scp is preferred because it is type-save.
FreeBSD implementation notes:
- This is just the framework to make the interface POSIX compatible.
For now, no additional functionality is provided. This is supposed
to happen now, starting with floating point values.
- We don't use 'sigcontext_t.si_value' for now (POSIX meant it for
realtime-related values).
- Documentation will be updated when new functionality is added and
the exact arguments passed are determined. The comments in
sys/signal.h are meant to be useful.

QUEUE_AGE, QUEUE_LRU, and QUEUE_EMPTY we instead have QUEUE_CLEAN,
QUEUE_DIRTY, QUEUE_EMPTY, and QUEUE_EMPTYKVA. With this patch clean
and dirty buffers have been separated. Empty buffers with KVM
assignments have been separated from truely empty buffers. getnewbuf()
has been rewritten and now operates in a 100% optimal fashion. That is,
it is able to find precisely the right kind of buffer it needs to
allocate a new buffer, defragment KVM, or to free-up an existing buffer
when the buffer cache is full (which is a steady-state situation for
the buffer cache).
Buffer flushing has been reorganized. Previously buffers were flushed
in the context of whatever process hit the conditions forcing buffer
flushing to occur. This resulted in processes blocking on conditions
unrelated to what they were doing. This also resulted in inappropriate
VFS stacking chains due to multiple processes getting stuck trying to
flush dirty buffers or due to a single process getting into a situation
where it might attempt to flush buffers recursively - a situation that
was only partially fixed in prior commits. We have added a new daemon
called the buf_daemon which is responsible for flushing dirty buffers
when the number of dirty buffers exceeds the vfs.hidirtybuffers limit.
This daemon attempts to dynamically adjust the rate at which dirty buffers
are flushed such that getnewbuf() calls (almost) never block.
The number of nbufs and amount of buffer space is now scaled past the
8MB limit that was previously imposed for systems with over 64MB of
memory, and the vfs.{lo,hi}dirtybuffers limits have been relaxed
somewhat. The number of physical buffers has been increased with the
intention that we will manage physical I/O differently in the future.
reassignbuf previously attempted to keep the dirtyblkhd list sorted which
could result in non-deterministic operation under certain conditions,
such as when a large number of dirty buffers are being managed. This
algorithm has been changed. reassignbuf now keeps buffers locally sorted
if it can do so cheaply, and otherwise gives up and adds buffers to
the head of the dirtyblkhd list. The new algorithm is deterministic but
not perfect. The new algorithm greatly reduces problems that previously
occured when write_behind was turned off in the system.
The P_FLSINPROG proc->p_flag bit has been replaced by the more descriptive
P_BUFEXHAUST bit. This bit allows processes working with filesystem
buffers to use available emergency reserves. Normal processes do not set
this bit and are not allowed to dig into emergency reserves. The purpose
of this bit is to avoid low-memory deadlocks.
A small race condition was fixed in getpbuf() in vm/vm_pager.c.

don't throw commands at Fibre devices that do not have Class 3
service parameters TARGET ROLE defined.
Clean up f/w initialization a bit. Add Fabric support (or at least
the first blush of it). Whew - way too much to describe here.
Basically, after a LIP, hang out until we see a Loop Up or a Port
DataBase Change async event, then see if we're on a Fabric
(GET_PORT_NAME of FL_PORT_ID). If we are, try and scan the fabric
controller for fabric devices using the GetAllNext SNS subcommand.
As we find devices, announce them to the outer layer. Try and do
some guard code for broken (Brocade) SNS servers (that get stuck
in loops- gotta maybe do this a different way using the GP_ID3 cmd
instead). Then do a scan of the lower (local loop) ids using a
GET_PORT_NAME to see if the f/w has logged into anything at that
loop id. If so, then do a GET_PORT_DATABASE command. Do this scan
into a local database. At this point we can say the loop is 'Ready'.
After this, we merge our local loop port database with our stored
port database- in a as yet to be really fully exercised fashion we
try and follow the logic of something having moved around. The
first time we see something at a Loop ID, we fix it, for the purpose
of this system instance, at that Loop ID. If things shift around
so it ends up somewhere else, we still keep it at this Loop ID (our
'Target') but use the new (moved) Loop ID when we actually throw
commands at it. Check for insane cases of different Loop IDs both
claiming to have the same WWN- if that happens, invalidate both.
Notify the outer layer of devices that have arrived and devices
that have gone away. *Finally*, when this is done, search the
softc's database of Fabric devices and perform logout/login actions.
The Qlogic f/w maintains logout/login for all local loop devices.
We have to maintain logout/login for fabric devices- total PITA.
Expect to see this area undergo more change over time.
Change some fcp parameter structures such that we can get the portid
(24 bit value), get both node and port WWN, know whether we're on a fabric
or not, note whether we've ever seen the loop up, and note the current
state of the loop.
Replace the isp_pdb_t structure in fcparams with a reduced cost structure
that maintains a static relationship to 'Target', but can have the actual
loop ID used change (in case, post LIP, we discover things have moved
around). This also retains portid and node/port WWNs. This array gets
larger if we have fabric support compiled in.
Note special loop IDs that are invariate for this device- FL_PORT_ID
(0x7e) which tells us if there's a fabric controller present, FC_PORT_ID
and FC_SNS_ID (fabric controller port and fabric SNS server port). We don't
use the latter two for anything. IDs above FC_SNS_ID up through 255 are
available for mapping fabric devices to 'target' ids.
Add in a config define to set FC full duplex mode. Add in a define to
recognize the Qlogic 2200 boards. Add comments about ISPCTL commands.
