normal in case of media read error and some ATAPI cases, when transfer size
is unknown beforehand. PCI ATA BM specification tells that in case of such
underrun driver should just manually stop DMA engine. DMA engine should
same time guarantie that all bus mastering transfers completed at the moment
of driver reads interrupt flag asserted.
This change should fix interrupt storms and command timeouts in many cases.

native devices which support the v4l API from processes running within
the linuxulator, e.g. skype or flash can access the multimedia/pwcbsd driver.
Not tested is firmware upload, framebuffer stuff and video tuner stuff
due to lack of hardware.
The clipping part (VIDIOCSWIN) needs a little bit of further work (partly
in progress, but can not be tested due to lack of a suitable device).
The submitter tested this sucessfully with Skype and flash apps on amd64 and
i386 with the multimedia/pwcbsd driver.

single outstanding DMA read operation. Most controllers targeted to
client with PCIe bus interface(e.g. BCM5761) may have this
limitation. All controllers for servers does not have this
limitation.
Collapsing mbuf chains to reduce number of memory reads before
transmitting was most effective way to workaround this. I got about
940Mbps from 850Mbps with mbuf collapsing on BCM5761. However it
takes a lot of CPU cycles to collapse mbuf chains so add tunable to
control the number of allowed TX buffers before collapsing. The
default value is 0 which effectively disables the forced collapsing.
For most cases 2 would yield best performance(about 930Mbps)
without much sacrificing CPU cycles.
Note the collapsing is only activated when the controller is on
PCIe bus and the frame does not need TSO operation. TSO does not
seem to suffer from the hardware limitation because the payload
size is much bigger than normal IP datagram.
Thanks to davidch@ who told me the limitation of client controllers
and actually gave possible workarounds to mitigate the limitation.

- Instead of measuring last request execution time for each drive and
choosing one with smallest time, use averaged number of requests, running
on each drive. This information is more accurate and timely. It allows to
distribute load between drives in more even and predictable way.
- For each drive track offset of the last submitted request. If new request
offset matches previous one or close for some drive, prefer that drive.
It allows to significantly speedup simultaneous sequential reads.

Previously the failing operation would allocate an mbuf and construct an
error reply, but because the function did not return 0, the NFS server
assumed it had failed to generate a reply and would leak the reply mbuf as
well as not sending the reply to the NFS client.

One of the things I really want to do, is to get rid of the limitations
of our current utmp(5) mechanism:
- It only allows 8 byte TTY device names.
- The hostname only allows 16 bytes of storage.
I'm not a big fan of <utmpx.h>, but I think we should at least try to
add parts of it. Unfortunately we cannot implement <utmpx.h>, because we
miss various fields, such as ut_id, ut_pid, etc. The API provided by
libulog shares some similarities with <utmpx.h>, so it shouldn't be too
hard to port these applications eventually. In most simple cases, it
should just be a matter of removing the ulog_ prefix everywhere.
As a bonus, it also implements a function called ulog_login_pseudo(),
which allows unprivileged applications to write log entries, provided
they have a valid file descriptor to a pseudo-terminal master device.
libulog will allow a smoother transition to a new file format by adding
a library interface to deal with utmp/wtmp/lastlog files. I initially
thought about adding the functionality to libutil, but because I'm not
planning on keeping this library around forever, we'd better keep it
separated.
Next items on the todo list:
1. Port applications in the base system (and ports) to libulog, instead
of letting them use <utmp.h>.
2. Remove <utmp.h>, implement <utmpx.h> and reimplement this library on
top.
3. Port as many applications as possible back to <utmpx.h>.
long instead of an int when examining the results of select() to look for
RPC requests. Previously this routine would ignore RPC requests to sockets

return from the inner switch(), so we will have a easier time when
