651175c9db Introduce support for adaptive spinning in lockmgr.
Actually, as it did receive few tuning, the support is disabled by
default, but it can opt-in with the option ADAPTIVE_LOCKMGRS.
Due to the nature of lockmgrs, adaptive spinning needs to be
selectively enabled for any interested lockmgr.
The support is bi-directional, or, in other ways, it will work in both
cases if the lock is held in read or write way.  In particular, the
read path is passible of further tunning using the sysctls
debug.lockmgr.retries and debug.lockmgr.loops .  Ideally, such sysctls
should be axed or compiled out before release.

Addictionally note that adaptive spinning doesn't cope well with
LK_SLEEPFAIL.  The reason is that many (and probabilly all) consumers
of LK_SLEEPFAIL are mainly interested in knowing if the interlock was
dropped or not in order to reacquire it and re-test initial conditions.
This directly interacts with adaptive spinning because lockmgr needs
to drop the interlock while spinning in order to avoid a deadlock
(further details in the comments inside the patch).

Final note: finding someone willing to help on tuning this with
relevant workloads would be either very important and appreciated.

4ef60d2686 Add support for multiple passes of the device tree during the boot-time
probe.  The current device order is unchanged.  This commit just adds the
infrastructure and ABI changes so that it is easier to merge later changes
into 8.x.
- Driver attachments now have an associated pass level.  Attachments are
  not allowed to probe or attach to drivers until the system-wide pass level
  is >= the attachment's pass level.  By default driver attachments use the
  "last" pass level (BUS_PASS_DEFAULT).  Driver's that wish to probe during
  an earlier pass use EARLY_DRIVER_MODULE() instead of DRIVER_MODULE() which
  accepts the pass level as an additional parameter.
- A new method BUS_NEW_PASS has been added to the bus interface.  This
  method is invoked when the system-wide pass level is changed to kick off
  a rescan of the device tree so that drivers that have just been made
  "eligible" can probe and attach.
- The bus_generic_new_pass() function provides a default implementation of
  BUS_NEW_PASS().  It first allows drivers that were just made eligible for
  this pass to identify new child devices.  Then it propogates the rescan to
  child devices that already have an attached driver by invoking their
  BUS_NEW_PASS() method.  It also reprobes devices without a driver.
- BUS_PROBE_NOMATCH() is only invoked for devices that do not have
  an attached driver after being scanned during the final pass.
- The bus_set_pass() function is used during boot to raise the pass level.
  Currently it is only called once during root_bus_configure() to raise
  the pass level to BUS_PASS_DEFAULT.  This has the effect of probing all
  devices in a single pass identical to previous behavior.

dbe5926046 Fix and add a workaround on an issue of EtherIP packet with reversed
version field sent via gif(4)+if_bridge(4).  The EtherIP
implementation found on FreeBSD 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 7.0, 7.1, and 7.2 had
an interoperability issue because it sent the incorrect EtherIP
packets and discarded the correct ones.

This change introduces the following two flags to gif(4):

 accept_rev_ethip_ver: accepts both correct EtherIP packets and ones
    with reversed version field, if enabled.  If disabled, the gif
    accepts the correct packets only.  This flag is enabled by
    default.

 send_rev_ethip_ver: sends EtherIP packets with reversed version field
    intentionally, if enabled.  If disabled, the gif sends the correct
    packets only.  This flag is disabled by default.

These flags are stored in struct gif_softc and can be set by
ifconfig(8) on per-interface basis.

Note that this is an incompatible change of EtherIP with the older
FreeBSD releases.  If you need to interoperate older FreeBSD boxes and
new versions after this commit, setting "send_rev_ethip_ver" is
needed.

b36cfff75d Add a simple API to manage scatter/gather lists of phyiscal addresses.
Each list describes a logical memory object that is backed by one or more
physical address ranges.  To minimize locking, the sglist objects
themselves are immutable once they are shared.

These objects may be used in the future to facilitate I/O requests using
physically-addressed buffers.  For the immediate future I plan to use them
to implement a new type of VM object and pager.

- Define flag RM_RECURSE to use instead of LO_RECURSABLE.
- Define flag RM_NOWITNESS to allow an rmlock to be exempt from WITNESS

1ae1c2a3bd Reverse the logic for ADAPTIVE_SX option and enable it by default.
Introduce for this operation the reverse NO_ADAPTIVE_SX option.
The flag SX_ADAPTIVESPIN to be passed to sx_init_flags(9) gets suppressed
and the new flag, offering the reversed logic, SX_NOADAPTIVE is added.

Additively implements adaptive spininning for sx held in shared mode.
The spinning limit can be handled through sysctls in order to be tuned
while the code doesn't reach the release, after which time they should
be dropped probabilly.

This change has made been necessary by recent benchmarks where it does
improve concurrency of workloads in presence of high contention
(ie. ZFS).

KPI breakage is documented by __FreeBSD_version bumping, manpage and
UPDATING updates.

3d98b75bac Rename the queue macros I introduced last year.
Last year I added SLIST_REMOVE_NEXT and STAILQ_REMOVE_NEXT, to remove
entries behind an element in the list, using O(1) time. I recently
discovered NetBSD also has a similar macro, called SLIST_REMOVE_AFTER.
In my opinion this approach is a lot better:

- It doesn't have the unused first argument of the list pointer. I added
  this, mainly because OpenBSD also had it.

- The _AFTER suffix makes a lot more sense, because it is related to
  SLIST_INSERT_AFTER. _NEXT is only used to iterate through the list.

The reason why I want to rename this now, is to make sure we don't
release a major version with the badly named macros.

29dc7bc636 Merge final round of MLD changes from p4:
ip6_input.c, in6.h:
 * Add netinet6-specific mbuf flag M_RTALERT_MLD, shadowing M_PROTO6.
  * Always set this flag if HBH Router Alert option is present for MLD,
    even when not forwarding.

 icmp6.c:
 * In icmp6_input(), spell m->m_pkthdr.rcvif as ifp to be consistent.
 * Use scope ID for verifying input. Do not apply SSM filters here, no inpcb.
  * Check for M_RTALERT_MLD when validating MLD traffic, as we can't see
    IPv6 hop options outside of ip6_input().

 in6_mcast.c:
 * Use KAME scope/zone ID in in6_multi.
   * Update net.inet6.ip6.mcast.filters implementation to use scope IDs
     for comparisons.
 * Fix scope ID treatment in multicast socket option processing.
   Scope IDs passed in from userland will be ignored as other less
   ambiguous APIs exist for specifying the link.
 * Tighten userland input checks in IPv6 SSM delta and full-state ops.
   * Source filter embedded scope IDs need to be revisited, for now
     just clear them and ignore them on input.
 * Adapt KAME behaviour of looking up the scope ID in the default zone
   for multicast leaves, when the interface is ambiguous.

 mld6.c:
 * Tighten origin checks on MLD traffic as per RFC3810 Section 6.2:
  * ip6_src MAY be the unspecified address for MLDv1 reports.
  * ip6_src MAY have link-local address scope for MLDv1 reports,
    MLDv1 queries, and MLDv2 queries.
  * Perform address field validation *before* accepting queries.
 * Use KAME scope/zone ID in query/report processing.
   * Break const correctness for mld_v1_input_report(), mld_v1_input_query()
     as we temporarily modify the input mbuf chain.
   * Clear the scope ID before handoff to userland MLD daemon.
 * Fix MLDv1 old querier present timer processing.
   With the protocol defaults, hosts should revert to MLDv2 after 260s.
 * Add net.inet6.mld.v1enable sysctl, default to on.

 ifmcstat.c:
 * Use sysctl by default; -K requests kvm(3) if so compiled.

 mld.4:
 * Connect man page to build.
