3ware's 9xxx series controllers. This corresponds to
the 9.2 release (for FreeBSD 5.2.1) on the 3ware website.
Highlights of this release are:
1. The driver has been re-architected to use a "Common Layer"
(all tw_cl* files), which is a consolidation of all OS-independent
parts of the driver. The FreeBSD OS specific portions of the
driver go into an "OS Layer" (all tw_osl* files).
This re-architecture is to achieve better maintainability, consistency
of behavior across OS's, and better portability to new OS's (drivers
for new OS's can be written by just adding an OS Layer that's specific
to the OS, by complying to a "Common Layer Programming Interface" API.
2. The driver takes advantage of multiple processors.
3. The driver has a new firmware image bundled, the new features of which
include Online Capacity Expansion and multi-lun support, among others.
More details about 3ware's 9.2 release can be found here:
http://www.3ware.com/download/Escalade9000Series/9.2/9.2_Release_Notes_Web.pdf
Since the Common Layer is used across OS's, the FreeBSD specific include
path for header files (/sys/dev/twa) is not part of the #include pre-processor
directive in any of the source files. For being able to integrate twa into
the kernel despite this, Makefile.<arch> has been changed to add the include
path to CFLAGS.

- Restructure vget() now that vn_lock() does all of VI_DOOMED checking
for us and also handles the case where there is no real lock type.
- If VI_OWEINACT is set, we need to upgrade the lock request to EXCLUSIVE

had INACTIVE called yet.

These requests simply want to know that VI_DOOMED isn't set.

The main reason for doing this is that the ELF dump handler expects
the thread list to be fixed while the dump header is generated, so an
upcall that occurs at the wrong time can lead to buffer overruns and
other Bad Things.
Another solution would be to grab sched_lock in the ELF dump handler,
but we might as well single-thread, since the process is about to die.
Furthermore, I think this should ensure that the register sets in the
core file are sequentially consistent.
when vrele() acquires the directory lock in the wrong order. Fix this
via the following changes:
- Keep the directory locked after VOP_LOOKUP() until we've determined
what we're going to do with the child. This allows us to remove the
complicated post LOOKUP code which determins whether we should lock or
unlock the parent. This means we may have to vput() in the appropriate
cases later, rather than doing an unsafe vrele.
- in NDFREE() keep two flags to indicate whether we need to unlock vp or
dvp. This allows us to vput rather than vrele in the appropriate
cases without rechecking the flags. Move the code to handle dvp after
we handle vp.
- Remove some dead code from namei() that was the result of changes to
VFS_LOCK_GIANT().

to root cause on exactly how this happens.
- If the assert is disabled, we presently try to handle this case, but the
BUF_UNLOCK was missing. Thus, if this condition ever hit we would leak
a buf lock.
Many thanks to Peter Holm for all his help in finding this bug. He really
put more effort into it than I did.
critical_enter() and critical_exit() are now solely a mechanism for
deferring kernel preemptions. They no longer have any affect on
interrupts. This means that standalone critical sections are now very
cheap as they are simply unlocked integer increments and decrements for the
common case.
Spin mutexes now use a separate KPI implemented in MD code: spinlock_enter()
and spinlock_exit(). This KPI is responsible for providing whatever MD
guarantees are needed to ensure that a thread holding a spin lock won't
be preempted by any other code that will try to lock the same lock. For
now all archs continue to block interrupts in a "spinlock section" as they
did formerly in all critical sections. Note that I've also taken this
opportunity to push a few things into MD code rather than MI. For example,
critical_fork_exit() no longer exists. Instead, MD code ensures that new
threads have the correct state when they are created. Also, we no longer
try to fixup the idlethreads for APs in MI code. Instead, each arch sets
the initial curthread and adjusts the state of the idle thread it borrows
in order to perform the initial context switch.
This change is largely a big NOP, but the cleaner separation it provides
will allow for more efficient alternative locking schemes in other parts
of the kernel (bare critical sections rather than per-CPU spin mutexes
for per-CPU data for example).

safe since it checks the return value of devclass_get_device(), which would
