the PowerPC port with all the Open Firmware bits removed and replaced by
their EFI counterparts. On the whole, I think I prefer Open Firmware.
This code is supposed to be an immutable shim that sits on the EFI system
partition, loads /boot/loader.efi from UFS and tells the real loader what
disk/partition to look at. It finds the UFS root partition by the somewhat
braindead approach of picking the first UFS partition it can find. Better
approaches are called for, but this works for now. This shim loader will
also be useful for secure boot in the future, which will require some
rearchitecture.
SBT_MAX, to make it more robust in case internal type representation will
change in the future. All the consumers were migrated to SBT_MAX and
every new consumer (if any) should from now use this interface.

Currently, I view this as a critical fix for users and will MFC this rapidly as
my testing has shown data loss when the disk is failed by removing it when
under some amount of write activity and this code panics the box.

Use soreadable()/sowriteable() in socket upcalls to avoid extra wakeups
until we have enough data to read or space to write.
Increase partial receive len from 1K to 128K to not wake up on every
received packet.
This significantly reduces locks congestion and CPU usage and improves
throughput for large I/Os on NICs without TSO and LRO.

This KASSERT() existed as a sanity check that upper layers in the network
stack (e.g. inet, inet6) had released their reference to the underlying
driver's multicast memberships (ifmultiaddr{}). However it assumes the
lifecycle of the driver membership corresponds to the lifecycle of the
network layer membership.
In the submitter's case, ieee80211_ioctl_updatemulti() attempts to
reprogram the (parent, physical) ifnet{} memberships in response
to a change in membership on the (child, virtual) VAP ifnet, using
a batched update mechanism. These updates happen independently from
the network layer, causing a "false negative" assertion failure.
There are possibly other use cases where this KASSERT() may be triggered
by other networking stack activity (e.g. where a nesting relationship
exists between multiple ifnet{} instances). This suggests that further
review of FreeBSD's approach to nested ifnet relationships is needed.

walks the list of connections in TIME_WAIT closing expired connections
due to contention on the global TCP pcbinfo lock.
To remediate, introduce a new global lock to protect the list of
connections in TIME_WAIT. Only acquire the TCP pcbinfo lock when
closing an expired connection. This limits the window of time when
TCP input processing is stopped to the amount of time needed to close
a single connection.

Previously ${COMPILER_TYPE} was checked in sys/boot/amd64, and the efi
subdirectory was skipped altogether for gcc (since GCC does not support
a required attribute). However, during the early buildworld stages
${COMPILER_TYPE} is the existing system compiler (i.e., gcc on 9.x build
hosts), not the compiler that will eventually be used. This caused
"make obj" to skip the efi subdirectory. In later build stages
${COMPILER_TYPE} is "clang", and then the efi loader would attempt to
build in the source directory.

This caused incorrect behavior of arrays with big-endian DDF metadata.
Little-endian (like used by Adaptec controllers) should not be harmed.
Add workaround should be enough to manage compatibility.

Unfortunately we can't check range collisions for UNMAP commands alike
to writes, because they include multiple ranges, which are also passed
in data block, not in CDB. As result, UNMAP commands have to be treated
as colliding with any other command accessing the media.
From the other side all UNMAPs are equal (we don't support ANCHOR flag),
so we can execute several UNMAPs same time.
This code was heavily broken few months ago during CAM locking changes.
Fixing it would require almost complete rewrite. Since there are no
known devices on market using this interface younger then ~15 years, and
they are CD, not even DVD, I don't see much reason to rewrite it.
This change does not mean those devices won't work. They will just work
slower due to inefficient disks load/unload schedule if several LUNs
accessed same time.

This patch adds support for three new SCSI commands: UNMAP, WRITE SAME(10)
and WRITE SAME(16). WRITE SAME commands support both normal write mode
and UNMAP flag. To properly report UNMAP capabilities this patch also adds
support for reporting two new VPD pages: Block limits and Logical Block
Provisioning.
UNMAP support can be enabled per-LUN by adding "-o unmap=on" to `ctladm
create` command line or "option unmap on" to lun sections of /etc/ctl.conf.
At this moment UNMAP supported for ramdisks and device-backed block LUNs.
It was tested to work great with ZFS ZVOLs. For file-backed LUNs UNMAP
support is unfortunately missing due to absence of respective VFS KPI.

With this kernel module and userland tool, poudriere is able to build
ports packages via the QEMU userland tools (or another emulator program)
in a different architecture chroot, e.g. TARGET=mips TARGET_ARCH=mips
I'm not connecting this to GENERIC for obvious reasons, but this should
allow the kernel module to be built by default and enable the building
of the userland tool (which automatically loads the kernel module).
