The crash can occur when all of the following conditions are true:
- a packet consists of multiple segements (requires LRO enabled)
- there has been a failure to allocate an mbuf for the packet and
the packet has to be dropped
- a host (vmware) still owned at least one segment of the packet,
so the driver had to wait for another interrupt to proceed to
discarding the remaning segment(s)

In the deep past, when this code compiled as a binary module, ath_hal
built as a module. This allowed custom, smaller HAL modules to be built.
This was especially beneficial for small embedded platforms where you
didn't require /everything/ just to run.
However, sometime around the HAL opening fanfare, the HAL landed here
as one big driver+HAL thing, and a lot of the (dirty) infrastructure
(ie, #ifdef AH_SUPPORT_XXX) to build specific subsets of the HAL went away.
This was retained in sys/conf/files as "ath_hal_XXX" but it wasn't
really floated up to the modules themselves.
I'm now in a position where for the reaaaaaly embedded boards (both the
really old and the last couple generation of QCA MIPS boards) having a
cut down HAL module and driver loaded at runtime is /actually/ beneficial.
This reduces the kernel size down by quite a bit. The MIPS modules look
like this:
adrian@gertrude:~/work/freebsd/head-embedded/src % ls -l ../root/mips_ap/boot/kernel.CARAMBOLA2/ath*ko
-r-xr-xr-x 1 adrian adrian 5076 May 23 23:45 ../root/mips_ap/boot/kernel.CARAMBOLA2/ath_dfs.ko

-r-xr-xr-x 1 adrian adrian 23472 May 23 23:45 ../root/mips_ap/boot/kernel.CARAMBOLA2/ath_rate.ko
And the x86 versions, like this:

.. so you can see, not building the whole HAL can save quite a bit.
For example, if you don't need AR9300 support, you can actually avoid
wasting half a megabyte of RAM. On embedded routers this is quite a
big deal.
The AR9300 HAL can be later further shrunk because, hilariously,
it indeed supports AH_SUPPORT_<xxx> for optionally adding chipset support.
(I'll chase that down later as it's quite a big savings if you're only
building for a single embedded target.)
So:
* Create a very hackish way to load/unload HAL modules
* Create module metadata for each HAL subtype - ah_osdep_arXXXX.c
* Create module metadata for ath_rate and ath_dfs (bluetooth is
currently just built as part of it)
* .. yes, this means we could actually build multiple rate control
modules and pick one at load time, but I'd rather just glue this
into net80211's rate control code. Oh well, baby steps.
* Main driver is now "ath_main"
* Create an "if_ath" module that does what the ye olde one did -
load PCI glue, main driver, HAL and all child modules.
In this way, if you have "if_ath_load=YES" in /boot/modules.conf
it will load everything the old way and stuff should still work.
* For module autoloading purposes, I actually /did/ fix up
the name of the modules in if_ath_pci and if_ath_ahb.
If you want to selectively load things (eg on ye cheape ARM/MIPS platforms
where RAM is at a premium) you should:
* load ath_hal
* load the chip modules in question
* load ath_rate, ath_dfs
* load ath_main
* load if_ath_pci and/or if_ath_ahb depending upon your particular
bus bind type - this is where probe/attach is done.
TODO:
* AR5312 module and associated pieces - yes, we have the SoC side support
now so the wifi support would be good to "round things out";
* Just nuke AH_SUPPORT_AR5416 for now and always bloat the packet
structures; this'll simplify other things.
* Should add a simple refcnt thing to the HAL RF/chip modules so you
can't unload them whilst you're using them.
* Manpage updates, UPDATING if appropriate, etc.

lzc_create(), or more correctly, zfs_ioc_create() does not reject an attempt to
create a filesystem as a child of a volume, instead it proceeds to a crash.
A crash stack obtained on FreeBSD:
page fault while in kernel mode
zap_leaf_lookup()
fzap_lookup()
zap_lookup_norm()
zap_lookup()
zfs_get_zplprop()
zfs_fill_zplprops_impl()
zfs_ioc_create()
zfsdev_ioctl()
devfs_ioctl_f()
kern_ioctl()
sys_ioctl()
This crash happened with a kernel without debugging assertions.
The immediate cause of crash appears to an attempt to interpret a zvol object
as a zap object.
For filesystems:
#define MASTER_NODE_OBJ 1
For zvols:
#define ZVOL_OBJ 1ULL
#define ZVOL_ZAP_OBJ 2ULL
So, I see two problems here:
1. an attempt to create a filesystem under a zvol should be rejected as
early as possible, maybe in zfs_fill_zplprops()
2. maybe zap_lookup / zap_lockdir should reject objects that are not of one
of the zap object types

spa_sync() iterates over all the dirty dnodes and processes each of them by
calling dnode_sync(). If there are many dirty dnodes (e.g. because we created
or removed a lot of files), the single thread of spa_sync() calling
dnode_sync() can become a bottleneck. Additionally, if many dnodes are dirtied
concurrently in open context (e.g. due to concurrent file creation), the
os_lock will experience lock contention via dnode_setdirty().
The solution is to track dirty dnodes on a multilist_t, and for spa_sync() to
use separate threads to process each of the sublists in the multilist.
On the concurrent file creation microbenchmark, the performance improvement
from dnode_setdirty() is up to 7%. Additionally, the wall clock time spent in
spa_sync() is reduced to 15%-40% of the single-threaded case. In terms of cost/
reward, once the other bottlenecks are addressed, fixing this bug will provide
a medium-large performance gain and require a medium amount of effort to
implement.

The issue fixed by this patch is a race condition in the deadlist code.
A thread executing an administrative command that uses
`dsl_deadlist_space_range()` holds the lock of the whole `deadlist_t` to
protect the access of all its entries that the deadlist contains in an
avl tree.
Sync threads trying to insert a new entry in the deadlist
(through `dsl_deadlist_insert()` -> `dle_enqueue()`) do not hold the
deadlist lock at that moment. If the `dle_bpobj` is the empty bpobj (our
sentinel value), we close and reopen it. Between these two operations,
it is possible for the `dsl_deadlist_space_range()` thread to dereference
that bpobj which is `NULL` during that window.
Threads should hold the a deadlist's `dl_lock` when they manipulate its
internal data so scenarios like the one above are avoided. In addition,
threads should also hold the bpobj lock whenever they are allocating the
subobj list of a bpobj, and not just when they actually insert the subobj
to the list. This way we can avoid potential memory leaks.

Background information: This assertion about tx_space_* verifies that we
are not dirtying more stuff than we thought we would. We “need” to know
how much we will dirty so that we can check if we should fail this
transaction with ENOSPC/EDQUOT, in dmu_tx_assign(). While the
transaction is open (i.e. between dmu_tx_assign() and dmu_tx_commit() —
typically less than a millisecond), we call dbuf_dirty() on the exact
blocks that will be modified. Once this happens, the temporary
accounting in tx_space_* is unnecessary, because we know exactly what
blocks are newly dirtied; we call dnode_willuse_space() to track this
more exact accounting.
The fundamental problem causing this bug is that dmu_tx_hold_*() relies
on the current state in the DMU (e.g. dn_nlevels) to predict how much
will be dirtied by this transaction, but this state can change before we
actually perform the transaction (i.e. call dbuf_dirty()).
This bug will be fixed by removing the assertion that the tx_space_*
accounting is perfectly accurate (i.e. we never dirty more than was
predicted by dmu_tx_hold_*()). By removing the requirement that this
accounting be perfectly accurate, we can also vastly simplify it, e.g.
removing most of the logic in dmu_tx_count_*().
The new tx space accounting will be very approximate, and may be more or
less than what is actually dirtied. It will still be used to determine
if this transaction will put us over quota. Transactions that are marked
by dmu_tx_mark_netfree() will be excepted from this check. We won’t make
an attempt to determine how much space will be freed by the transaction
— this was rarely accurate enough to determine if a transaction should
be permitted when we are over quota, which is why dmu_tx_mark_netfree()
was introduced in 2014.
We also won’t attempt to give “credit” when overwriting existing blocks,
if those blocks may be freed. This allows us to remove the
do_free_accounting logic in dbuf_dirty(), and associated routines. This

There are two possible ways how crypto callback are called: directly from

For outbound packets the direct call chain is the following:
IPSEC_OUTPUT() method -> ipsec[46]_common_output() ->
-> ipsec[46]_perform_request() -> xform_output() ->
-> crypto_dispatch() -> crypto_invoke() -> crypto_done() ->
-> xform_output_cb() -> ipsec_process_done() -> ip[6]_output().
The SA and SP references are held while crypto processing is not finished.
The error handling code wrongly expected that crypto callback always called
from the crypto thread context, and it did references releasing in
xform_output_cb(). But when the crypto callback called directly, in case of
error the error handling code in ipsec[46]_perform_request() also did
references releasing.
To fix this, remove error handling from ipsec[46]_perform_request() and do it

ABI breakage is mitigated by providing compatibility using versioned
symbols, ingenious use of the existing padding in structures, and
by employing other tricks. Unfortunately, not everything can be
fixed, especially outside the base system. For instance, third-party
APIs which pass struct stat around are broken in backward and
forward incompatible ways.
Kinfo sysctl MIBs ABI is changed in backward-compatible way, but
there is no general mechanism to handle other sysctl MIBS which
return structures where the layout has changed. It was considered
that the breakage is either in the management interfaces, where we
usually allow ABI slip, or is not important.
Struct xvnode changed layout, no compat shims are provided.
For struct xtty, dev_t tty device member was reduced to uint32_t.
It was decided that keeping ABI compat in this case is more useful
than reporting 64-bit dev_t, for the sake of pstat.

The (eventually) upcoming ath(4) changes will include being able to load
ath(4) devices on the AHB bus (ie the on-die wifi part of the SoC)
as modules.
In order for this to happen, a copy of the calibration data needs to be
copied away before the SPI driver runs or the memory map access hack
won't work.
Now, ideally (!) there'd be some driver that can come up after the MTD
pieces (eg, SPI, NAND, etc) and load into a firmware chunk the calibration
data.
(Or, really really nicely, would be an actual async firmware API that
would lead itself to having a driver schedule a file read - or a raw device
read - to get to the calibration data.)
Now, until all of the above is done - I'm going to perpetuate the layer
breaking atrocity here by simply doing the PCI bus fixup EEPROM/calibration
data hack here. This will work for any AR71xx (and later on, AR231x/AR531x)
device, as well as the handful of QCA MIPS + QCA9880v2 802.11ac boards with
NOR flash.
To use, this goes into the kernel config:
# Enable EEPROM hacks
options AR71XX_ATH_EEPROM
device ar71xx_caldata
device firmware
# This enables the ath_ahb driver (when I commit the change!) to
# pull data out of the firmware hack.
options ATH_EEPROM_FIRMWARE
In the hints file:
# ART calibration data mapping device
hint.ar71xx_caldata.0.at="nexus0"
hint.ar71xx_caldata.0.order=0
# Where the ART is - last 64k in the first 8MB of flash
hint.ar71xx_caldata.0.map.0.ath_fixup_addr=0x1fff0000
hint.ar71xx_caldata.0.map.0.ath_fixup_size=16384
# And now tell the ath(4) driver where to look!

ENA is a networking interface designed to make good use of modern CPU
features and system architectures.
The ENA device exposes a lightweight management interface with a
minimal set of memory mapped registers and extendable command set
through an Admin Queue.
The driver supports a range of ENA devices, is link-speed independent
(i.e., the same driver is used for 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, etc.), and has
a negotiated and extendable feature set.
Some ENA devices support SR-IOV. This driver is used for both the
SR-IOV Physical Function (PF) and Virtual Function (VF) devices.
ENA devices enable high speed and low overhead network traffic
processing by providing multiple Tx/Rx queue pairs (the maximum number
is advertised by the device via the Admin Queue), a dedicated MSI-X
interrupt vector per Tx/Rx queue pair, and CPU cacheline optimized
data placement.
The ENA driver supports industry standard TCP/IP offload features such
as checksum offload and TCP transmit segmentation offload (TSO).
Receive-side scaling (RSS) is supported for multi-core scaling.
The ENA driver and its corresponding devices implement health
monitoring mechanisms such as watchdog, enabling the device and driver
to recover in a manner transparent to the application, as well as
debug logs.
Some of the ENA devices support a working mode called Low-latency
Queue (LLQ), which saves several more microseconds. This feature will
be implemented for driver in future releases.
