I'm currently working on writing a metrics exporter for the Prometheus
monitoring system to provide access to sysctl metrics. Prometheus and
sysctl have some structural differences:
- sysctl is a tree of string component names.
- Prometheus uses a flat namespace for its metrics, but allows you to
attach labels with values to them, so that you can do aggregation.
An initial version of my exporter simply translated
hw.acpi.thermal.tz1.temperature
to
sysctl_hw_acpi_thermal_tz1_temperature_celcius
while we should ideally have
sysctl_hw_acpi_thermal_temperature_celcius{thermal_zone="tz1"}
allowing you to graph all thermal zones on a system in one go.
The change presented in this commit adds support for accomplishing this,
by providing the ability to attach labels to nodes. In the example I
gave above, the label "thermal_zone" would be attached to "tz1". As this
is a feature that will only be used very rarely, I decided to not change
the KPI too aggressively.

function from restarting the timer.
Commonly taskqueue_enqueue_timeout() is called from within the task
function itself without any checks for teardown. Then it can happen
the timer stays active after the return of taskqueue_drain_timeout(),
because the timeout and task is drained separately.
This patch factors out the teardown flag into the timeout task itself,
allowing existing code to stay as-is instead of applying a teardown
flag to each and every of the timeout task consumers.
Add assert to taskqueue_drain_timeout() which prevents parallel
execution on the same timeout task.
Update manual page documenting the return value of
taskqueue_enqueue_timeout().

The flag specifies that the block which uses FPU must be executed in
critical section, i.e. take no context switches, and does not need an
FPU save area during the execution.
It is intended to be applied around fast and short code pathes where
save area allocation is impossible or undesirable, due to context or
due to the relative cost of calculation vs. allocation.

When the I/O MMU is active in bhyve, all PCI devices need valid entries
in the DMAR context tables. The I/O MMU code does a single enumeration
of the available PCI devices during initialization to add all existing
devices to a domain representing the host. The ppt(4) driver then moves
pass through devices in and out of domains for virtual machines as needed.
However, when new PCI devices were added at runtime either via SR-IOV or
HotPlug, the I/O MMU tables were not updated.
This change adds a new set of EVENTHANDLERS that are invoked when PCI
devices are added and deleted. The I/O MMU driver in bhyve installs
handlers for these events which it uses to add and remove devices to
the "host" domain.

Idle page zeroing has been disabled by default on all architectures since
r170816 and has some bugs that make it seemingly unusable. Specifically,
the idle-priority pagezero thread exacerbates contention for the free page
lock, and yields the CPU without releasing it in non-preemptive kernels. The
pagezero thread also does not behave correctly when superpage reservations
are enabled: its target is a function of v_free_count, which includes
reserved-but-free pages, but it is only able to zero pages belonging to the
physical memory allocator.

alternate TCP stack in other then the closed state (pre-listen/connect).
The idea is that *if* that is supported by the alternate stack, it
is asked if its ok to switch. If it approves the "handoff" then we
allow the switch to happen. Also the fini() function now gets a flag
to tell if you are switching away *or* the tcb is destroyed. The
init() call into the alternate stack is moved to the end so the
tcb is more fully formed before the init transpires.

not scheduled -> scheduled -> running -> not scheduled. The API and the
manual page assume that, some comments in the code assume that, and looks
like some contributors to the code also did. The problem is that this
paradigm isn't true. A callout can be scheduled and running at the same
time, which makes API description ambigouous. In such case callout_stop()
family of functions/macros should return 1 and 0 at the same time, since it
successfully unscheduled future callout but the current one is running.
Before this change we returned 1 in such a case, with an exception that
if running callout was migrating we returned 0, unless CS_MIGRBLOCK was
specified.
With this change, we now return 0 in case if future callout was unscheduled,
but another one is still in action, indicating to API users that resources
are not yet safe to be freed.
However, the sleepqueue code relies on getting 1 return code in that case,
and there already was CS_MIGRBLOCK flag, that covered one of the edge cases.
In the new return path we will also use this flag, to keep sleepqueue safe.
Since the flag CS_MIGRBLOCK doesn't block migration and now isn't limited to
migration edge case, rename it to CS_EXECUTING.
This change fixes panics on a high loaded TCP server.

Add a pair of bus methods that can be used to "map" resources for direct
CPU access using bus_space(9). bus_map_resource() creates a mapping and
bus_unmap_resource() releases a previously created mapping. Mappings are
described by 'struct resource_map' object. Pointers to these objects can
be passed as the first argument to the bus_space wrapper API used for bus
resources.
Drivers that wish to map all of a resource using default settings
(for example, using uncacheable memory attributes) do not need to change.
However, drivers that wish to use non-default settings can now do so
without jumping through hoops.
First, an RF_UNMAPPED flag is added to request that a resource is not
implicitly mapped with the default settings when it is activated. This
permits other activation steps (such as enabling I/O or memory decoding
in a device's PCI command register) to be taken without creating a
mapping. Right now the AGP drivers don't set RF_ACTIVE to avoid using
up a large amount of KVA to map the AGP aperture on 32-bit platforms.
Once RF_UNMAPPED is supported on all platforms that support AGP this
can be changed to using RF_UNMAPPED with RF_ACTIVE instead.
Second, bus_map_resource accepts an optional structure that defines
additional settings for a given mapping.
For example, a driver can now request to map only a subset of a resource
instead of the entire range. The AGP driver could also use this to only
map the first page of the aperture (IIRC, it calls pmap_mapdev() directly
to map the first page currently). I will also eventually change the
PCI-PCI bridge driver to request mappings of the subset of the I/O window
resource on its parent side to create mappings for child devices rather
than passing child resources directly up to nexus to be mapped. This
also permits bridges that do address translation to request suitable
mappings from a resource on the "upper" side of the bus when mapping
resources on the "lower" side of the bus.
Another attribute that can be specified is an alternate memory attribute
for memory-mapped resources. This can be used to request a
Write-Combining mapping of a PCI BAR in an MI fashion. (Currently the
drivers that do this call pmap_change_attr() directly for x86 only.)
Note that this commit only adds the MI framework. Each platform needs
to add support for handling RF_UNMAPPED and thew new
bus_map/unmap_resource methods. Generally speaking, any drivers that
are calling rman_set_bustag() and rman_set_bushandle() need to be
updated.
