a large page size that is greater than malloc(3)'s default chunk size but
less than or equal to 4 MB, then increase the chunk size to match the large
page size.
Most often, using a chunk size that is less than the large page size is not
a problem. However, consider a long-running application that allocates and
frees significant amounts of memory. In particular, it frees enough memory
at times that some of that memory is munmap()ed. Up until the first
munmap(), a 1MB chunk size is just fine; it's not a problem for the virtual
memory system. Two adjacent 1MB chunks that are aligned on a 2MB boundary
will be promoted automatically to a superpage even though they were
allocated at different times. The trouble begins with the munmap(),
releasing a 1MB chunk will trigger the demotion of the containing superpage,
leaving behind a half-used 2MB reservation. Now comes the real problem.
Unfortunately, when the application needs to allocate more memory, and it
recycles the previously munmap()ed address range, the implementation of
mmap() won't be able to reuse the reservation. Basically, the coalescing
rules in the virtual memory system don't allow this new range to combine
with its neighbor. The effect being that superpage promotion will not
reoccur for this range of addresses until both 1MB chunks are freed at some
point in the future.

When I wrote the pseudo-terminal driver for the MPSAFE TTY code, Robert
Watson and I agreed the best way to implement this, would be to let
posix_openpt() create a pseudo-terminal with proper permissions in place
and let grantpt() and unlockpt() be no-ops.
This isn't valid behaviour when looking at the spec. Because I thought
it was an elegant solution, I filed a bug report at the Austin Group
about this. In their last teleconference, they agreed on this subject.
This means that future revisions of POSIX may allow grantpt() and
unlockpt() to be no-ops if an open() on /dev/ptmx (if the implementation
has such a device) and posix_openpt() already do the right thing.
I'd rather put this in the manpage, because simply mentioning we don't

modularize it so that new transports can be created.
Add a transport for SATA
Add a periph+protocol layer for ATA
Add a driver for AHCI-compliant hardware.
Add a maxio field to CAM so that drivers can advertise their max
I/O capability. Modify various drivers so that they are insulated
from the value of MAXPHYS.
The new ATA/SATA code supports AHCI-compliant hardware, and will override
the classic ATA driver if it is loaded as a module at boot time or compiled
into the kernel. The stack now support NCQ (tagged queueing) for increased
performance on modern SATA drives. It also supports port multipliers.
ATA drives are accessed via 'ada' device nodes. ATAPI drives are
accessed via 'cd' device nodes. They can all be enumerated and manipulated
via camcontrol, just like SCSI drives. SCSI commands are not translated to
their ATA equivalents; ATA native commands are used throughout the entire
stack, including camcontrol. See the camcontrol manpage for further
details. Testing this code may require that you update your fstab, and
possibly modify your BIOS to enable AHCI functionality, if available.
This code is very experimental at the moment. The userland ABI/API has
changed, so applications will need to be recompiled. It may change
further in the near future. The 'ada' device name may also change as
more infrastructure is completed in this project. The goal is to
eventually put all CAM busses and devices until newbus, allowing for
interesting topology and management options.
Few functional changes will be seen with existing SCSI/SAS/FC drivers,
though the userland ABI has still changed. In the future, transports
specific modules for SAS and FC may appear in order to better support
the topologies and capabilities of these technologies.
The modularization of CAM and the addition of the ATA/SATA modules is
meant to break CAM out of the mold of being specific to SCSI, letting it
grow to be a framework for arbitrary transports and protocols. It also
allows drivers to be written to support discrete hardware without
jeopardizing the stability of non-related hardware. While only an AHCI
driver is provided now, a Silicon Image driver is also in the works.
Drivers for ICH1-4, ICH5-6, PIIX, classic IDE, and any other hardware
is possible and encouraged. Help with new transports is also encouraged.

NGROUPS_MAX, eliminate ABI dependencies on them, and raise the to 1024
and 1023 respectively. (Previously they were equal, but under a close
reading of POSIX, NGROUPS_MAX was defined to be too large by 1 since it
is the number of supplemental groups, not total number of groups.)
The bulk of the change consists of converting the struct ucred member
cr_groups from a static array to a pointer. Do the equivalent in
kinfo_proc.
Introduce new interfaces crcopysafe() and crsetgroups() for duplicating
a process credential before modifying it and for setting group lists
respectively. Both interfaces take care for the details of allocating
groups array. crsetgroups() takes care of truncating the group list
to the current maximum (NGROUPS) if necessary. In the future,
crsetgroups() may be responsible for insuring invariants such as sorting
the supplemental groups to allow groupmember() to be implemented as a
binary search.
Because we can not change struct xucred without breaking application
ABIs, we leave it alone and introduce a new XU_NGROUPS value which is
always 16 and is to be used or NGRPS as appropriate for things such as
NFS which need to use no more than 16 groups. When feasible, truncate
the group list rather than generating an error.
Minor changes:
- Reduce the number of hand rolled versions of groupmember().
- Do not assign to both cr_gid and cr_groups[0].
- Modify ipfw to cache ucreds instead of part of their contents since
they are immutable once referenced by more than one entity.

This (or similar gymnastics) is required for the code to actually follow

and where getgroups may return {NGROUPS_MAX}+1 results on systems like

use case (closing fd's prior to execve()), the caller really wants all
fd's closed and returning EINTR just forces callers to call closefrom() in

- The _AFTER suffix makes a lot more sense, because it is related to
