Warner Losh a6e0c5da99 New CAM I/O scheduler for FreeBSD. The default I/O scheduler is the same
as before. The common scheduling bits have moved from inline code in
each of the CAM periph drivers into a library that implements the
default scheduling.

In addition, a number of rate-limiting and I/O preference options can
be enabled by adding CAM_IOSCHED_NETFLIX to your config file. A number
of extra stats are also maintained. CAM_IOSCHED_NETFLIX isn't on by
default because it uses a separate BIO_READ and BIO_WRITE queue, so
doesn't honor BIO_ORDERED between these two types of operations. We
already didn't honor it for BIO_DELETE, and we don't depend on
BIO_ORDERED between reads and writes anywhere in the system (it is
currently used with BIO_FLUSH in ZFS to make sure some writes are
complete before others start and as a poor-man's soft dependency in
one place in UFS where we won't be issuing READs until after the
operation completes). However, out of an abundance of caution, it
isn't enabled by default.

Plus, this also brings in NCQ TRIM support for those SSDs that support
it. A black list is also provided for known rogues that use NCQ trim
as an excuse to corrupt the drive. It was difficult to separate out
into a separate commit.

This code has run in production at Netflix for over a year now.

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree.  See build(7)
and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
for more information, including setting make(1) variables.

The `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process.  See build(7), config(8),
and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
for more information.

Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
`buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory.  GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.
