Since we are already using malloc()+copyin()/copyout() for smaller data
blocks, and since new asynchronous API does it always, I see no reason
to keep this ugly artificial size/alignment limitation in old API.
Tape applications suffer enough from the MAXPHYS limitations by itself,
and additional alignment requirement, often halving effectively usable
block size, does not help.
It would be good to use unmapped I/O here instead, but it require some
HBA drivers polishing first to support non-BIO unmapped buffers.

While it works on nda, it fails on ada and/or da for at least zfs with a modify
after free issue on a trim BIO. Revert while I rework it to fix those devices.
React to the BIO_SPEED command in the cam io scheduler by completing
as successful BIO_DELETE commands that are pending, up to the length
passed down in the BIO_SPEEDUP cmomand. The length passed down is a
hint for how much space on the drive needs to be recovered. By
completing the BIO_DELETE comomands, this allows the upper layers to
allocate and write to the blocks that were about to be trimmed. Since
FreeBSD implements TRIMSs as advisory, we can eliminliminate them and
go directly to writing.
The biggest benefit from TRIMS coomes ffrom the drive being able t
ooptimize its free block pool inthe log run. There's little nto no
bene3efit in the shoort term. , sepeciall whn the trim is followed by
a write. Speedup lets us make this tradeoff.

Add rate limiters to trims. Trims are a bit different than reads or

Add two sysctls to control pacing of nvme
trims. kern.cam.nda.X.goal_trim is the number of upper layer
BIO_DEELETE requests to try to collecet before sending TRIM down too
the nvme drive. trim_ticks is the number of ticks, at mosot, to wait
for at least goal_trim BIOS_DELEETE requests to come in.
Trim pacing is useful when a large number off disjoint trims are
comoing in from the upper layers. Since we have no way to chain
toogether trims from the upper layers that are sent down, this acts as
a hueristic to group trims into reasonable sized chunks. What's
reasonable varies from drive to drive.

The current vnode layout is not smp-friendly by having frequently read data
avoidably sharing cachelines with very frequently modified fields. In
particular v_iflag inspected for VI_DOOMED can be found in the same line with
v_usecount. Instead make it available in the same cacheline as the v_op, v_data
and v_type which all get read all the time.
v_type is avoidably 4 bytes while the necessary data will easily fit in 1.
Shrinking it frees up 3 bytes, 2 of which get used here to introduce a new
flag field with a new value: VIRF_DOOMED.

My changes in 351599 (kindly committed by avg) made the cd(4) media check
asynchronous to avoid a sleep while holding a mutex.
There was a difficult to reproduce bug with those changes that caused a
hang on boot on some single processor machines/VMs. Leandro Lupori
managed to reproduce the bug, diagnose it, and supplied a patch! Here is
his analysis, from the PR:
======
I was able to reproduce the problem described in comment#14.
Actually, I wasn't trying to reproduce it, I just started seeing it a few
weeks ago, in CURRENT.
I can reproduce it consistently, by using QEMU to run a PowerPC64 VM with a
single core/thread (-smp 1).
It happens only when there is no media in the emulated CD-ROM, a device
that QEMU adds by default, unless -nodefaults is specified in command line.
I've debugged it and this is what I've found:
1- After the CD probe is successful, GEOM will try to open the device,
which will end up calling cdcheckmedia(), that sets CD state to
CD_STATE_MEDIA_PREVENT.
2- Next, scsi_prevent() is executed and succeeds, the CD_FLAG_DISC_LOCKED
flag is set and CD state moves to CD_STATE_MEDIA_SIZE.
3- Next, scsi_read_capacity() is executed and fails, state is set to
CD_STATE_MEDIA_ALLOW, cdmediaprobedone() is called and wakes up
cdcheckmedia().
4- Then, when cdstart() is invoked to process CD_STATE_MEDIA_ALLOW, it
first checks if CD_FLAG_DISC_LOCKED is set, and if so skips directly to
CD_STATE_MEDIA_SIZE state. This will repeat the steps of bullet 3, entering
an infinite MEDIA_SIZE command loop.
When there is a least another core/thread, the GEOM thread that performed
the initial cdopen() will get scheduled again, closing the CD device, that
will call cdprevent(PR_ALLOW) that clears the CD_FLAG_DISC_LOCKED flag and
breaks the loop.
So, apparently, the problem is CD_STATE_MEDIA_ALLOW being skipped when
CD_FLAG_DISC_LOCKED is set. If I understand correctly, in this case, the
state should be advanced to CD_STATE_MEDIA size only when the current state
is CD_STATE_MEDIA_PREVENT.

I have some disks reporting "Logical unit is in process of becoming ready"
for about half an hour before finally reporting failure. During that time
CAM waits for the readiness during ~2 minutes for each request, that makes
system boot take very long time.
This change reduces wait times for the following requests to ~1 second if
previously long wait for that device has timed out.

Before this change CAM used config_intrhook_establish() for this purpose,
but that approach does not allow to delay it again after releasing once.
USB stack uses root_mount_hold() to delay boot until bus scan is complete.
But once it is, CAM had no time to scan SCSI bus, registered by umass(4),
if it already done other scans and called config_intrhook_disestablish().
The new approach makes it work smooth, assuming the USB device is found
during the initial bus scan. Devices appearing on USB bus later may still
require setting kern.cam.boot_delay, but hopefully those are minority.

When we do a daopen, we call dareprobe and wait for the results. The repoll runs
the da state machine up through the DA_STATE_RC* and then exits.
For removable media, we poll the device every 3 seconds with a TUR to see if it
has disappeared. This introduces a race. If the removable device has lots of
partitions, and if it's a little slow (like say a USB2 connected USB stick),
then we can have a fair amount of time that this reporbe is going on for. If,
during that time, damediapoll fires, it calls daschedule which changes the
scheduling priority from NONE to NORMAL. When that happens, the careful single
stepping in the da state machine is disrupted and we wind up sceduling multiple
read capacity calls. The first one succeeds and releases the reference. The
second one succeeds and releases the reference (and panics if the right code is
compiled into the da driver).
To avoid the race, only do the TUR calls while in state normal, otherwise just
reschedule damediapoll. This prevents the race from happening.
For the PROBEWP and PROBERC* states, add assertiosn that both the da device
state is in the right state, as well as the ccb state is the right one when we
enter dadone_probe{wp,rc}. This will ensure that we don't sneak through when
we're re-probing the size and write protection status of the device and thereby
leak a reference which can later lead to an invalidated peripheral going away
before all references are released (and resulting panic).

There are contexts where releasing the ccb triggers dastart() to be run
inline. When da was written, there was always a deferral, so it didn't matter
much. Now, with direct dispatch, we can call dastart from the dadone*
routines. If the probe state isn't updated, then dastart will redo things with
stale information. This normally isn't a problem, because we run the probe state
machine once at boot... Except that we also run it for each open of the device,
which means we can have multiple threads racing each other to try to kick off
the probe. However, if we update the state before we release the CCB, we can
avoid the race. While it's needed only for the probewp and proberc* states, do
it everywhere because it won't hurt the other places.
The race here happens because we reprobe dozens of times on boot when drives
have lots of partitions. We should consider caching this info for 1-2 seconds
to avoid this thundering hurd.

via 'diskinfo -v'. This avoids the need to track it down via CAM,
and should also work for disks that don't use CAM. And since it's
inherited thru the GEOM hierarchy, in most cases one doesn't need
to walk the GEOM graph either, eg you can use it on a partition
instead of disk itself.

This is a rework of r344701, that noticed that number of bytes passes to
8 bit sector count field gets truncated. First decision was to not pass
anything, since ATA specs define the field as N/A. But it appeared to be a
problem for some SAT devices, that require information about data transfer
to operate properly. Some additional investigation shown that it is quite
a common practice to set unused fields of ATA commands (fortunately ATA
specs formally allow it) to supply the information to SAT layer. I have
found SAS-SATA interposer that does not allow pass-through without it.
As side effect, reduce code duplication by removing ata_do_28bit_cmd()
function, replacing it with more universal ata_do_cmd().
