- WEP TX fix:
The original code called software crypto, ieee80211_crypto_encap(),
which never worked since IEEE80211_KEY_SWCRYPT was never flagged due to
ieee80211_crypto_newkey() assumes that wi always supports hardware based
crypto regardless of operational mode(by virtue of IEEE80211_C_WEP).
This fix works around that issue by adding wi_key_alloc() to force
the use of s/w crypto. Also if anyone ever decides to cleanup ioctl
handling where key changes wouldn't cause a call to wi_init() every time,
we'll need wi_key_alloc() to DTRT.
In addition to that, this fix also adds code to wi_write_wep() to force
existing keys to be switched between h/w and s/w crypto such that an
operation mode change(sta <-> hostap) will flag IEEE80211_KEY_SWCRYPT
properly.
- WEP RX fix:
Clear IEEE80211_F_DROPUNENC even in hostap mode. Quote from Sam:
"This is really gross but I don't see an easy way around it.
By doing it we lose the ability to independently drop unencode
frames (and support mixed wep/!wep use). We should really be
setting the EXCLUDE_UNENCRYPTED flag written in wi_write_wep
based on IEEE80211_F_DROPUNENC but with our clearing it we can't
depend on it being set properly."

o Axe poll in trap.
o Axe IFF_POLLING flag from if_flags.
o Rework revision 1.21 (Giant removal), in such a way that
poll_mtx is not dropped during call to polling handler.
This fixes problem with idle polling.
o Make registration and deregistration from polling in a

o Obsolete kern.polling.enable. Polling is turned on/off
with ifconfig.
Detailed kern_poll.c changes:
- Remove polling handler flags, introduced in 1.21. The are not
needed now.
- Forget and do not check if_flags, if_capenable and if_drv_flags.
- Call all registered polling handlers unconditionally.
- Do not drop poll_mtx, when entering polling handlers.
- In ether_poll() NET_LOCK_GIANT prior to locking poll_mtx.
- In netisr_poll() axe the block, where polling code asks drivers
to unregister.
- In netisr_poll() and ether_poll() do polling always, if any
handlers are present.
- In ether_poll_[de]register() remove a lot of error hiding code. Assert
that arguments are correct, instead.
- In ether_poll_[de]register() use standard return values in case of
error or success.
- Introduce poll_switch() that is a sysctl handler for kern.polling.enable.
poll_switch() goes through interface list and enabled/disables polling.
A message that kern.polling.enable is deprecated is printed.
Detailed driver changes:
- On attach driver announces IFCAP_POLLING in if_capabilities, but
not in if_capenable.
- On detach driver calls ether_poll_deregister() if polling is enabled.
- In polling handler driver obtains its lock and checks IFF_DRV_RUNNING
flag. If there is no, then unlocks and returns.
- In ioctl handler driver checks for IFCAP_POLLING flag requested to
be set or cleared. Driver first calls ether_poll_[de]register(), then
obtains driver lock and [dis/en]ables interrupts.
- In interrupt handler driver checks IFCAP_POLLING flag in if_capenable.
If present, then returns.This is important to protect from spurious
interrupts.

Add a new private thread flag to indicate that the thread should
not sleep if runningbufspace is too large.
Set this flag on the bufdaemon and syncer threads so that they skip
the waitrunningbufspace() call in bufwrite() rather than than
checking the proc pointer vs. the known proc pointers for these two
threads. A way of preventing these threads from being starved for
I/O but still placing limits on their outstanding I/O would be
desirable.
Set this flag in ffs_copyonwrite() to prevent bufwrite() calls from
blocking on the runningbufspace check while holding snaplk. This
prevents snaplk from being held for an arbitrarily long period of
time if runningbufspace is high and greatly reduces the contention
for snaplk. The disadvantage is that ffs_copyonwrite() can start
a large amount of I/O if there are a large number of snapshots,
which could cause a deadlock in other parts of the code.
Call runningbufwakeup() in ffs_copyonwrite() to decrement runningbufspace
before attempting to grab snaplk so that I/O requests waiting on
snaplk are not counted in runningbufspace as being in-progress.
Increment runningbufspace again before actually launching the
original I/O request.
Prior to the above two changes, the system could deadlock if enough
I/O requests were blocked by snaplk to prevent runningbufspace from
falling below lorunningspace and one of the bawrite() calls in
ffs_copyonwrite() blocked in waitrunningbufspace() while holding
snaplk.

the directory's inode after queuing the dirrem that will decrement
the parent directory's link count. This will force the update of
the parent directory's actual link to actually be scheduled. Without
this change the parent directory's actual link count would not be
updated until ufs_inactive() cleared the inode of the newly removed
directory, which might be deferred indefinitely. ufs_inactive()
will not be called as long as any process holds a reference to the
removed directory, and ufs_inactive() will not clear the inode if
the link count is non-zero, which could be the result of an earlier
system crash.
If a background fsck is run before the update of the parent directory's
actual link count has been performed, or at least scheduled by
putting the dirrem on the leaf directory's inodedep id_bufwait list,
fsck will corrupt the file system by decrementing the parent
directory's effective link count, which was previously correct
because it already took the removal of the leaf directory into
account, and setting the actual link count to the same value as the
effective link count after the dangling, removed, leaf directory
has been removed. This happens because fsck acts based on the
actual link count, which will be too high when fsck creates the
file system snapshot that it references.
This change has the fortunate side effect of more quickly cleaning
up the large number dirrem structures that linger for an extended
time after the removal of a large directory tree. It also fixes a
potential problem with the shutdown of the syncer thread timing out
if the system is rebooted immediately after removing a large directory
tree.

Give DEVFS a proper inode called struct cdev_priv. It is important
to keep in mind that this "inode" is shared between all DEVFS
mountpoints, therefore it is protected by the global device mutex.
Link the cdev_priv's into a list, protected by the global device
mutex. Keep track of each cdev_priv's state with a flag bit and
of references from mountpoints with a dedicated usecount.
Reap the benefits of much improved kernel memory allocator and the
generally better defined device driver APIs to get rid of the tables
of pointers + serial numbers, their overflow tables, the atomics
to muck about in them and all the trouble that resulted in.
This makes RAM the only limit on how many devices we can have.
The cdev_priv is actually a super struct containing the normal cdev
as the "public" part, and therefore allocation and freeing has moved
to devfs_devs.c from kern_conf.c.
The overall responsibility is (to be) split such that kern/kern_conf.c
is the stuff that deals with drivers and struct cdev and fs/devfs
handles filesystems and struct cdev_priv and their private liason
exposed only in devfs_int.h.
Move the inode number from cdev to cdev_priv and allocate inode
numbers properly with unr. Local dirents in the mountpoints
(directories, symlinks) allocate inodes from the same pool to
guarantee against overlaps.
Various other fields are going to migrate from cdev to cdev_priv
in the future in order to hide them. A few fields may migrate
from devfs_dirent to cdev_priv as well.
Protect the DEVFS mountpoint with an sx lock instead of lockmgr,
this lock also protects the directory tree of the mountpoint.
Give each mountpoint a unique integer index, allocated with unr.
Use it into an array of devfs_dirent pointers in each cdev_priv.
Initially the array points to a single element also inside cdev_priv,
but as more devfs instances are mounted, the array is extended with
malloc(9) as necessary when the filesystem populates its directory
tree.
Retire the cdev alias lists, the cdev_priv now know about all the
relevant devfs_dirents (and their vnodes) and devfs_revoke() will
pick them up from there. We still spelunk into other mountpoints
and fondle their data without 100% good locking. It may make better
sense to vector the revoke event into the tty code and there do a
destroy_dev/make_dev on the tty's devices, but that's for further
study.
Lots of shuffling of stuff and churn of bits for no good reason[2].
XXX: There is still nothing preventing the dev_clone EVENTHANDLER
from being invoked at the same time in two devfs mountpoints. It
is not obvious what the best course of action is here.
XXX: comment out an if statement that lost its body, until I can
find out what should go there so it doesn't do damage in the meantime.
XXX: Leave in a few extra malloc types and KASSERTS to help track
down any remaining issues.

our own private association table. Idea and code by Sam Leffler.

as they both interact with the tty code (!MPSAFE) and may sleep if the
tty buffer is full (per comment).
Modify all consumers of uprintf() and tprintf() to hold Giant around
calls into these functions. In most cases, this means adding an
acquisition of Giant immediately around the function. In some cases
(nfs_timer()), it means acquiring Giant higher up in the callout.
With these changes, UFS no longer panics on SMP when either blocks are
exhausted or inodes are exhausted under load due to races in the tty
code when running without Giant.
NB: Some reduction in calls to uprintf() in the svr4 code is probably
desirable.
NB: In the case of nfs_timer(), calling uprintf() while holding a mutex,
or even in a callout at all, is a bad idea, and will generate warnings
and potential upset. This needs to be fixed, but was a problem before
this change.
NB: uprintf()/tprintf() sleeping is generally a bad ideas, as is having
non-MPSAFE tty code.

provided access to the root file system before the start of the
init process. This was used briefly by SEBSD before it knew about
preloading data in the loader, and using that method to gain
access to data earlier results in fewer inconsistencies in the
approach. Policy modules still have access to the root file system
creation event through the mac_create_mount() entry point.
Removed now, and will be removed from RELENG_6, in order to gain
third party policy dependencies on the entry point for the lifetime
of the 6.x branch.
