The IPI vector is static, and happens to be the most common interrupt by far
on some systems. Rather than searching for the interrupt every time, cache
the index.
This appears to yield a small performance boost, of about 8% reduction in
buildworld times, on my POWER9 system, when paired with r342975.
The XICS and XIVE need extra data beyond irq and vector. Rather than
performing a separate search, it's better for the general interrupt facility
to hold a private pointer, since the search already must be done anyway at
that level.
Summary:
GCC expects to link in a crtsavres.o on powerpc platforms. On
powerpc64 this is an empty file, but on powerpc and powerpcspe this does contain
some save/restore functions, which may not actually be necessary for newer
modern GCC and clang. This appeases the in-tree gcc, though, and is needed in
order to switch to the BSD CRTRBEGIN.

Check if rate control structures were allocated before trying to
access them in various places; this was possible before on
allocation failure (unlikely), but was revealed after r342211
where allocation was deferred.
In case if driver uses wlan_amrr(4) and it is loaded it
is possible to reproduce the panic via
sysctl net.wlan.<number>.rate_stats
(for wlan0 the number will be 0).

When building with KCOV enabled the compiler will insert function calls
to probes allowing us to trace the execution of the kernel from userspace.
These probes are on function entry (trace-pc) and on comparison operations
(trace-cmp).
Userspace can enable the use of these probes on a single kernel thread with
an ioctl interface. It can allocate space for the probe with KIOSETBUFSIZE,
then mmap the allocated buffer and enable tracing with KIOENABLE, with the
trace mode being passed in as the int argument. When complete KIODISABLE
is used to disable tracing.
The first item in the buffer is the number of trace event that have
happened. Userspace can write 0 to this to reset the tracing, and is
expected to do so on first use.
The format of the buffer depends on the trace mode. When in PC tracing just
the return address of the probe is stored. Under comparison tracing the
comparison type, the two arguments, and the return address are traced. The
former method uses on entry per trace event, while the later uses 4. As
such they are incompatible so only a single mode may be enabled.
KCOV is expected to help fuzzing the kernel, and while in development has
already found a number of issues. It is required for the syzkaller system
call fuzzer [1]. Other kernel fuzzers could also make use of it, either
with the current interface, or by extending it with new modes.
A man page is currently being worked on and is expected to be committed
soon, however having the code in the kernel now is useful for other
developers to use.

The goal of this change is to make it easier to use getconf to query
the number of available processors.
Sadly it's unclear per POSIX, which form (with a preceding _ or
lacking it) is correct. I will bring this up on the Austin Group list so
this point is clarified for implementors that might rely on this getconf
variable in future POSIX spec versions.
This is something I noticed when trying to import GoogleTest to FreeBSD
as one of the CI scripts uses this variable on Linux.

Issue:
ocs_fc(4) driver panics. It's induced by setting the port_state
sysctl to offline, then online, then offline, then online, and so
forth and so on in rapid succession.
Reason:
While we set the port_state to online fc discovery will start and OS
is enumerating the target discs by calling ocs_action(), then set the
port state to "offline" which deletes domain/sport/nodes.
In ocs_action()->XPT_GET_TRAN_SETTINGS we are accessing the remote
node which can be invalid to get the wwpn, wwnn and port.
Fix:
Removed accessing of remote node and domain in some ocs_action() cases.
Populated the required values from ocs_fcport.
This removes the dependency of node and domain structures while
processing XPT_PATH_INQ and XPT_GET_TRAN_SETTINGS.
We will invalidate the target entries after the device lost
timeout(30 seconds).

In cpu_thread_alloc we would allocate space for the trap frame at the top of
the kernel stack. This is just below the pcb, however due to a missing cast
the pointer arithmetic would use the pcb size, not the trapframe size. As
the pcb is larger than the trapframe this is safe, however later in cpu_fork
we include the case leading to the two disagreeing on the location.
Fix by using the same arithmetic in both locations.

CARP shares protocol number 112 with VRRP (RFC 5798). And the size of
VRRP packet may be smaller than CARP. ipfw_chk() does m_pullup() to at
least sizeof(struct carp_header) and can fail when packet is VRRP. This
leads to packet drop and message about failed pullup attempt.
Also, RFC 5798 defines version 3 of VRRP protocol, this version number
also unsupported by CARP and such check leads to packet drop.
carp_input() does its own checks for protocol version and packet size,
so we can remove these checks to be able pass VRRP packets.

Some of these changes originated in FreeBSD and simply reduce diffs

ELF Tool Chain ar is not (currently) used in FreeBSD, and there are
improvements in both FreeBSD and ELF Tool Chain ar that are not in

This set of changes is geared towards making bectl respect deep boot
environments when they exist and are mounted. The deep BE composition
functionality (`bectl add`) remains disabled for the time being. This set of
changes has no effect for the average user. but allows deep BE users to
upgrade properly with their current setup.
libbe(3): Open the target boot environment and get a zfs handle, then pass
that with the target mountpoint to be_mount_iter; If the BE_MNT_DEEP flag is
set call zfs_iter_filesystems and mount the child datasets.
Similar logic is employed when unmounting the datasets, save for children
are unmounted first.
bectl(8): Change bectl_cmd_jail to pass the BE_MNT_DEEP flag when
calling be_mount as well as call be_unmount when cleaning up after the
jail has exited instead of umount(2) directly.

And refactor the code to avoid unneeded initialization to reduce overhead
of per-packet processing.
ipfw(4) can be invoked by pfil(9) framework for each packet several times.
Each call uses on-stack variable of type struct ip_fw_args to keep the
state of ipfw(4) processing. Currently this variable has 240 bytes size
on amd64. Each time ipfw(4) does bzero() on it, and then it initializes
some fields.
glebius@ has reported that they at Netflix discovered, that initialization
of this variable produces significant overhead on packet processing.
After patching I managed to increase performance of packet processing on
simple routing with ipfw(4) firewalling to about 11% from 9.8Mpps up to
11Mpps (Xeon E5-2660 v4@ + Mellanox 100G card).
Introduced new field flags, it is used to keep track of what fields was
initialized. Some fields were moved into the anonymous union, to reduce
the size. They all are mutually exclusive. dummypar field was unused, and
therefore it is removed. The hopstore6 field type was changed from
sockaddr_in6 to a bit smaller struct ip_fw_nh6. And now the size of struct
ip_fw_args is 128 bytes.
ipfw_chk() was modified to properly handle ip_fw_args.flags instead of
rely on checking for NULL pointers.

We could perhaps have a method that does this given a dataset, but it's yet
clear that we'll always want to bypass the altroot when we grab the
mountpoint. For now, we'll refactor things a bit so we grab the altroot
length when libbe is initialized and have a common method that does the
necessary augmentation (replace with / if it's the root, return a pointer to
later in the string if not).
This will be used in some upcoming work to make be_mount work properly for

- The structure being exported via IFDATA_LINKSPECIFIC doesn't appear

- The structure being exported is private to the kernel and always
has been.
- No other drivers in common use set the if_linkmib field.
- Because IFDATA_LINKSPECIFIC can be used to overwrite the linkmib
structure, a privileged user could use it to corrupt internal

The loopback interface can only receive packets with a single scope ID,
namely the scope ID of the loopback interface itself. To mitigate this
packets which use the scope ID are appearing as received by the real
network interface, see "origifp" in the patch. The current code would
drop packets which are designated for loopback which use a link-local
scope ID in the destination address or source address, because they
won't match the lo0's scope ID. To fix this restore the network
interface pointer from the scope ID in the destination address for
the problematic cases. See comments added in patch for a more detailed
description.
