63d094a7e2 Add casts to __uint16_t to the __bswap16() macros on all arches which
didn't already have them.  This is because the ternary expression will
return int, due to the Usual Arithmetic Conversions.  Such casts are not
needed for the 32 and 64 bit variants.

While here, add additional parentheses around the x86 variant, to
protect against unintended consequences.

9c170fd168 Disable the option VFS_ALLOW_NONMPSAFE by default on all the supported
platforms.
This will make every attempt to mount a non-mpsafe filesystem to the
kernel forbidden, unless it is expressely compiled with
VFS_ALLOW_NONMPSAFE option.

This patch is part of the effort of killing non-MPSAFE filesystems
from the tree.

No MFC is expected for this patch.

1b1596a3b3 - Add a bus_dma tag to each PCI bus that is a child of a Host-PCI bridge.
The tag enforces a single restriction that all DMA transactions must not
  cross a 4GB boundary.  Note that while this restriction technically only
  applies to PCI-express, this change applies it to all PCI devices as it
  is simpler to implement that way and errs on the side of caution.
- Add a softc structure for PCI bus devices to hold the bus_dma tag and
  a new pci_attach_common() routine that performs actions common to the
  attach phase of all PCI bus drivers.  Right now this only consists of
  a bootverbose printf and the allocate of a bus_dma tag if necessary.
- Adjust all PCI bus drivers to allocate a PCI bus softc and to call
  pci_attach_common() from their attach routines.

831ce4cb3d - Change contigmalloc() to use the vm_paddr_t type instead of an unsigned
long for specifying a boundary constraint.
- Change bus_dma tags to use bus_addr_t instead of bus_size_t for boundary
  constraints.

These allow boundary constraints to be fully expressed for cases where
sizeof(bus_addr_t) != sizeof(bus_size_t).  Specifically, it allows a
driver to properly specify a 4GB boundary in a PAE kernel.

Note that this cannot be safely MFC'd without a lot of compat shims due
to KBI changes, so I do not intend to merge it.

96459db58f As it turns out r227960 may still be insufficient with PREEMPTION
so try harder to get the CDMA sync interrupt delivered and also in
a more efficient way:
- wrap the whole process of sending and receiving the CDMA sync
  interrupt in a critical section so we don't get preempted,
- send the CDMA sync interrupt to the CPU that is actually waiting
  for it to happen so we don't take a detour via another CPU,
- instead of waiting for up to 15 seconds for the interrupt to
  trigger try the whole process for up to 15 times using a one
  second timeout (the code was also changed to just ignore belated
  interrupts of a previous tries should they appear).

According to testing done by Peter Jeremy with the debugging also
added as part of this commit the first two changes apparently are
sufficient to now properly get the CDMA sync interrupts delivered
at the first try though.

546e977edb Now that we have a working OF_printf() since r230631 and a OF_panic()
helper since r230632, use these for output and panicing during the
early cycles and move cninit() until after the static per-CPU data
has been set up. This solves a couple of issue regarding the non-
availability of the static per-CPU data:
- panic() not working and only making things worse when called,
- having to supply a special DELAY() implementation to the low-level
  console drivers,
- curthread accesses of mutex(9) usage in low-level console drivers
  that aren't conditional due to compiler optimizations (basically,
  this is the problem described in r227537 but in this case for
  keyboards attached via uart(4)). [1]

21bbe2ac13 For machines where the kernel address space is unrestricted increase
VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE to 2, awaiting more insight from alc@. As it turns
out, the VM apparently has problems with machines that have large holes
in the physical address space, causing the kmem_suballoc() call in
kmeminit() to fail with a VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE of 1. Using a value of 2
allows these, namely Blade 1500 with 2GB of RAM, to boot.

130f4520cb Add the CAM Target Layer (CTL).
CTL is a disk and processor device emulation subsystem originally written
for Copan Systems under Linux starting in 2003.  It has been shipping in
Copan (now SGI) products since 2005.

It was ported to FreeBSD in 2008, and thanks to an agreement between SGI
(who acquired Copan's assets in 2010) and Spectra Logic in 2010, CTL is
available under a BSD-style license.  The intent behind the agreement was
that Spectra would work to get CTL into the FreeBSD tree.

Some CTL features:

 - Disk and processor device emulation.
 - Tagged queueing
 - SCSI task attribute support (ordered, head of queue, simple tags)
 - SCSI implicit command ordering support.  (e.g. if a read follows a mode
   select, the read will be blocked until the mode select completes.)
 - Full task management support (abort, LUN reset, target reset, etc.)
 - Support for multiple ports
 - Support for multiple simultaneous initiators
 - Support for multiple simultaneous backing stores
 - Persistent reservation support
 - Mode sense/select support
 - Error injection support
 - High Availability support (1)
 - All I/O handled in-kernel, no userland context switch overhead.

(1) HA Support is just an API stub, and needs much more to be fully
    functional.

ctl.c:			The core of CTL.  Command handlers and processing,
			character driver, and HA support are here.

ctl.h:			Basic function declarations and data structures.

ctl_backend.c,
ctl_backend.h:		The basic CTL backend API.

ctl_backend_block.c,
ctl_backend_block.h:	The block and file backend.  This allows for using
			a disk or a file as the backing store for a LUN.
			Multiple threads are started to do I/O to the
			backing device, primarily because the VFS API
			requires that to get any concurrency.

ctl_backend_ramdisk.c:	A "fake" ramdisk backend.  It only allocates a
			small amount of memory to act as a source and sink
			for reads and writes from an initiator.  Therefore
			it cannot be used for any real data, but it can be
			used to test for throughput.  It can also be used
			to test initiators' support for extremely large LUNs.

ctl_cmd_table.c:	This is a table with all 256 possible SCSI opcodes,
			and command handler functions defined for supported
			opcodes.

ctl_debug.h:		Debugging support.

ctl_error.c,
ctl_error.h:		CTL-specific wrappers around the CAM sense building
			functions.

ctl_frontend.c,
ctl_frontend.h:		These files define the basic CTL frontend port API.

ctl_frontend_cam_sim.c:	This is a CTL frontend port that is also a CAM SIM.
			This frontend allows for using CTL without any
			target-capable hardware.  So any LUNs you create in
			CTL are visible in CAM via this port.

ctl_frontend_internal.c,
ctl_frontend_internal.h:
			This is a frontend port written for Copan to do
			some system-specific tasks that required sending
			commands into CTL from inside the kernel.  This
			isn't entirely relevant to FreeBSD in general,
			but can perhaps be repurposed.

ctl_ha.h:		This is a stubbed-out High Availability API.  Much
			more is needed for full HA support.  See the
			comments in the header and the description of what
			is needed in the README.ctl.txt file for more
			details.

ctl_io.h:		This defines most of the core CTL I/O structures.
			union ctl_io is conceptually very similar to CAM's
			union ccb.

ctl_ioctl.h:		This defines all ioctls available through the CTL
			character device, and the data structures needed
			for those ioctls.

ctl_mem_pool.c,
ctl_mem_pool.h:		Generic memory pool implementation used by the
			internal frontend.

ctl_private.h:		Private data structres (e.g. CTL softc) and
			function prototypes.  This also includes the SCSI
			vendor and product names used by CTL.

ctl_scsi_all.c,
ctl_scsi_all.h:		CTL wrappers around CAM sense printing functions.

ctl_ser_table.c:	Command serialization table.  This defines what
			happens when one type of command is followed by
			another type of command.

ctl_util.c,
ctl_util.h:		CTL utility functions, primarily designed to be
			used from userland.  See ctladm for the primary
			consumer of these functions.  These include CDB
			building functions.

scsi_ctl.c:		CAM target peripheral driver and CTL frontend port.
			This is the path into CTL for commands from
			target-capable hardware/SIMs.

README.ctl.txt:		CTL code features, roadmap, to-do list.

usr.sbin/Makefile:	Add ctladm.

ctladm/Makefile,
ctladm/ctladm.8,
ctladm/ctladm.c,
ctladm/ctladm.h,
ctladm/util.c:		ctladm(8) is the CTL management utility.
			It fills a role similar to camcontrol(8).
			It allow configuring LUNs, issuing commands,
			injecting errors and various other control
			functions.

usr.bin/Makefile:	Add ctlstat.

ctlstat/Makefile
ctlstat/ctlstat.8,
ctlstat/ctlstat.c:	ctlstat(8) fills a role similar to iostat(8).
			It reports I/O statistics for CTL.

sys/conf/files:		Add CTL files.

sys/conf/NOTES:		Add device ctl.

sys/cam/scsi_all.h:	To conform to more recent specs, the inquiry CDB
			length field is now 2 bytes long.

			Add several mode page definitions for CTL.

sys/cam/scsi_all.c:	Handle the new 2 byte inquiry length.

sys/dev/ciss/ciss.c,
sys/dev/ata/atapi-cam.c,
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_targ_bh.c,
scsi_target/scsi_cmds.c,
mlxcontrol/interface.c:	Update for 2 byte inquiry length field.

scsi_da.h:		Add versions of the format and rigid disk pages
			that are in a more reasonable format for CTL.

amd64/conf/GENERIC,
i386/conf/GENERIC,
ia64/conf/GENERIC,
sparc64/conf/GENERIC:	Add device ctl.

i386/conf/PAE:		The CTL frontend SIM at least does not compile
			cleanly on PAE.

07042bef45 Fix OF_finddevice error return value in case of FDT.
According to the open firmware standard, finddevice call has to return
a phandle with value of -1 in case of error.

This commit is to:
- Fix the FDT implementation of this interface (ofw_fdt_finddevice) to
  return (phandle_t)-1 in case of error, instead of 0 as it does now.
- Fix up the callers of OF_finddevice() to compare the return value with
  -1 instead of 0 to check for errors.
- Since phandle_t is unsigned, the return value of OF_finddevice should
  be checked with '== -1' rather than '<= 0' or '> 0', fix up these cases
  as well.

abef0e6700 For sparc64 also adjust the geometry of da(4) driven disks to not overflow
the 16-bit cylinders field of the VTOC8 disk label (at around 502GB). The
geometry chosen for disks above that limit allows to use disks up to 2TB,
which is the limit of the extended VTOC8 format. The geometry used for
disks smaller than the 16-bit cylinders limit stays the same as used by
cam_calc_geometry(9) for extended translation.

- Use KOBJMETHOD_END.
- Remove the gl_clear_latched_intr hook as it's not needed for any of the

- Correct the DMA constraints used in the SBus front-end, the LSI64854 isn't
  limited to 32-bit DMA.
- The ESP200 also only supports up to 64k transfers.
- Don't let the DMA and SBus front-end supply a maximum transfer size larger
  than MAXPHYS as that's the maximum the upper layers use and we otherwise
  just waste resources unnecessarily.
- Initialize the ECB callout and don't zero the handle when returning ECBs
  to the free list so that ncr53c9x_callout() actually is called with the
  driver lock held.
- On detach the driver lock should be held across cam_sim_free() according
  to isp(4) and a panic received.
- Check the return value of NCRDMA_SETUP(), i.e. bus_dmamap_load(9), and try
  to handle failures gracefully.
- In ncr53c9x_action() replace N calls to xpt_done() in a switch with just
  one at the end.
- On XPT_PATH_INQ report "NCR" rather than "Sun" as the vendor as the former
  is somewhat more correct as well as the maximum supported transfer size via
  maxio in order to take advantage of controllers that that can handle more
  than DFLTPHYS.
- Print the number of MESSAGE (EXTENDED) rejected.
- Fix the path encoded in the multiple inclusion protection of ncr53c9xvar.h.
- Correct the DMA constraints used in the LSI64854 core to not exceed the
  maximum supported transfer size and include the boundary so we don't need
  to check on every setup of a DMA transfer.
- Let the bus DMA map callbacks do nothing in case of an error.
- Correctly handle > 64k transfers for FAS366 in the LSI64854. A new feature
  flag NCR_F_LARGEXFER was introduced so we just need to check for this one
  and not for individual controllers supporting large transfers in several
  places.
- Let the LSI64854 core load transfer buffers using BUS_DMA_NOWAIT as the
  NCR53C9x core can't handle EINPROGRESS. Due to lack of bounce buffers
  support, sparc64 doesn't actually use EINPROGRESS and likely never will,
  as an example for writing additional front-ends for the NCR53C9x core it
  makes sense to set BUS_DMA_NOWAIT anyway though.

bda8e754a1 Make sparc64 compatible with NEW_PCIB and enable it:
- Implement bus_adjust_resource() methods as far as necessary and in non-PCI
  bridge drivers as far as feasible without rototilling them.
- As NEW_PCIB does a layering violation by activating resources at layers
  above pci(4) without previously bubbling up their allocation there, move
  the assignment of bus tags and handles from the bus_alloc_resource() to
  the bus_activate_resource() methods like at least the other NEW_PCIB
  enabled architectures do. This is somewhat unfortunate as previously
  sparc64 (ab)used resource activation to indicate whether SYS_RES_MEMORY
  resources should be mapped into KVA, which is only necessary if their
  going to be accessed via the pointer returned from rman_get_virtual() but
  not for bus_space(9) as the later always uses physical access on sparc64.
  Besides wasting KVA if we always map in SYS_RES_MEMORY resources, a driver
  also may deliberately not map them in if the firmware already has done so,
  possibly in a special way. So in order to still allow a driver to decide
  whether a SYS_RES_MEMORY resource should be mapped into KVA we let it
  indicate that by calling bus_space_map(9) with BUS_SPACE_MAP_LINEAR as
  actually documented in the bus_space(9) page. This is implemented by
  allocating a separate bus tag per SYS_RES_MEMORY resource and passing the
  resource via the previously unused bus tag cookie so we later on can call
  rman_set_virtual() in sparc64_bus_mem_map(). As a side effect this now
  also allows to actually indicate that a SYS_RES_MEMORY resource should be
  mapped in as cacheable and/or read-only via BUS_SPACE_MAP_CACHEABLE and
  BUS_SPACE_MAP_READONLY respectively.
- Do some minor cleanup like taking advantage of rman_init_from_resource(),
  factor out the common part of bus tag allocation into a newly added
  sparc64_alloc_bus_tag(), hook up some missing newbus methods and replace
  some homegrown versions with the generic counterparts etc.
- While at it, let apb_attach() (which can't use the generic NEW_PCIB code
  as APB bridges just don't have the base and limit registers implemented)
  regarding the config space registers cached in pcib_softc and the SYSCTL
  reporting nodes set up.

purpose.

1ef3f048e0 Also allocate space for the PIL counters. Given that no machine actually
uses IV_MAX interrupt vectors this wasn't a problem in practice though.

64020d8477 Re-reading the Schizo errata suggests that it's actually tolerable to
also use the streaming buffer of pre version 5/revision 2.3 hardware as
long as we stay away from context flushes (which iommu(4) so far doesn't
take advantage of). OpenSolaris does the same.

0224e43d7c - Add protective parentheses to macros as far as possible.
- Move {r,w,}mb() to the top of this file where they live on most of the
  other architectures.

fafda37b15 In total store which we use for running the kernel and all of the userland
atomic operations behave as if the were followed by a memory barrier so
there's no need to include ones in the acquire variants of atomic(9).
Removing these results a small performance improvement, specifically this
is sufficient to compensate the performance loss seen in the worldstone
benchmark seen when using SCHED_ULE instead of SCHED_4BSD.
This change is inspired by Linux even more radically doing the equivalent
thing some time ago.
Thanks go to Peter Jeremy for additional testing.

9a91e2aa2e Add a comment about why contrary to what once would think running all of
userland with total store order actually is appropriate.
