Remove check for number of queued frames before attempting to

that.
ownership to controller before completion of access to the

ownership to controller until it completes RX processing.
the debugger back-end has changed. This means that switching from ddb
to gdb no longer requires a "step" which can be dangerous on an
already-crashed kernel.
Also add a capability to get from the gdb back-end back to ddb, by
typing ^C in the console window.
While here, simplify kdb_sysctl_available() by using
sbuf_new_for_sysctl(), and use strlcpy() instead of strncpy() since the
strlcpy semantic is desired.

request TX completion interrupt for every 8-th frames. Previously
dc(4) requested TX completion interrupt if number of queued TX
descriptors is greater than 64. This caused a lot of TX completion
interrupt under high TX load once driver queued more than 64 TX
descriptors. It's quite normal to see more than 64 queued TX
descriptors under high TX load.
This change reduces the number of TX completion interrupts to be
less than 17k under high TX load. Because this change does not
generate TX completion interrupt for each frame, add reclaiming
transmitted buffers in dc_tick not to generate false watchdog
timeouts.
While I'm here add check for queued descriptors in dc_txeof() since
there is no more work to do when there is no pending descriptors.
When the driver ran out of DMA chaining buffers, it kept the timeout for
the I/O, and I/O would stall.
The driver was not freezing the device queue on errors.
mps.c: Pull command completion logic into a separate
function, and call the callback/wakeup for commands
that are never sent due to lack of chain buffers.
Add a number of extra diagnostic sysctl variables.
Handle pre-hardware errors for configuration I/O.
This doesn't panic the system, but it will fail the
configuration I/O and there is no retry mechanism.
So the device probe will not succeed. This should
be a very uncommon situation, however.
mps_sas.c: Freeze the SIM queue when we run out of chain
buffers, and unfreeze it when more commands
complete.
Freeze the device queue when errors occur, so that
CAM can insure proper command ordering.
Report pre-hardware errors for task management
commands. In general, that shouldn't be possible
because task management commands don't have S/G
lists, and that is currently the only error path
before we get to the hardware.
Handle pre-hardware errors (like out of chain
elements) for SMP requests. That shouldn't happen
either, since we should have enough space for two
S/G elements in the standard request.
For commands that end with
MPI2_IOCSTATUS_SCSI_IOC_TERMINATED and
MPI2_IOCSTATUS_SCSI_EXT_TERMINATED, return them
with CAM_REQUEUE_REQ to retry them unconditionally.
These seem to be related to back end, transport
related problems that are hopefully transient. We
don't want to go through the retry count for
something that is not a permanent error.
Keep track of the number of outstanding I/Os.
mpsvar.h: Track the number of free chain elements.
Add variables for the number of outstanding I/Os,
and I/O high water mark.
Add variables to track the number of free chain
buffers and the chain low water mark, as well as
the number of chain allocation failures.
Add I/O state flags and an attach done flag.

the controller firmware will return all of our commands. Instead, keep
track of outstanding I/Os and return them to CAM once device removal
processing completes.
mpsvar.h: Declare the new "io_list" in the mps_softc.
mps.c: Initialize the new "io_list" in the mps softc.
mps_sas.c: o Track SCSI I/O requests on the io_list from the
time of mpssas_action() through mpssas_scsiio_complete().
o Zero out the request structures used for device
removal commands prior to filling them out.
o Once the target reset task management function completes
during device removal processing, assume any SCSI I/O
commands that are still oustanding will never return
from the controller, and process them manually.

Currently supported platforms are sparc64, pc98, i386, amd64, powerpc, and
powerpc64. Integration into the build system will occur in the coming
weeks.
Merging with pc-sysinstall will use this code as a frontend, while
temporarily retaining the interactive partition editor here. This work
will be done in parallel with improvements on this code and release
integration.
Thanks to all who have provided testing and comments!

any other media configuration. Otherwise some 21143 controller
cannot establish a link. While I'm here remove the PHY
initialization code in dc_setcfg(). Since dc_setcfg() is called
whenever link state is changed, having the PHY initialization code
in dc_setcfg() resulted in continuous link flips.
After driver resets SIA, use default SIA transmit/receive
configuration instead of disabling autosense/autonegotiation.
Otherwise, controller fails to establish a link as well as losing
auto-negotiation capability. For manual media configuration, always
configure 21143 controller with specified media to ensure media
change. This change makes ANA-6922 establish link with/without
auto-negotiation.

VNET socket push back:
try to minimize the number of places where we have to switch vnets
and narrow down the time we stay switched. Add assertions to the
socket code to catch possibly unset vnets as seen in r204147.
While this reduces the number of vnet recursion in some places like
NFS, POSIX local sockets and some netgraph, .. recursions are
impossible to fix.

This preserves write behaviour but makes the flash driver usable for things

Note that since GEOM will now return the sector size as being smaller,
writes of sector size/alignment will now fail with an EIO. Code which
writes to the flash device will have to be (for now) manually taught
about the flash write blocksize.
