VSS stands for "Volume Shadow Copy Service". Unlike virtual machine
snapshot, it only takes snapshot for the virtual disks, so both
filesystem and applications have to aware of it, and cooperate the
whole VSS process.
This driver exposes two device files to the userland:
/dev/hv_fsvss_dev
Normally userland programs should _not_ mess with this device file.
It is currently used by the hv_vss_daemon(8), which freezes and
thaws the filesystem. NOTE: currently only UFS is supported, if
the system mounts _any_ other filesystems, the hv_vss_daemon(8)
will veto the VSS process.
If hv_vss_daemon(8) was disabled, then this device file must be
opened, and proper ioctls must be issued to keep the VSS working.
/dev/hv_appvss_dev
Userland application can opened this device file to receive the
VSS freeze notification, hold the VSS for a while (mainly to flush
application data to filesystem), release the VSS process, and
receive the VSS thaw notification i.e. applications can run again.
The VSS will still work, even if this device file is not opened.
However, only filesystem consistency is promised, if this device
file is not opened or is not operated properly.
hv_vss_daemon(8) is started by devd(8) by default. It can be disabled
by editting /etc/devd/hyperv.conf.

us much on highly embedded systems which don't take a lot of locks in

This makes it at least build time configurable so people can experiment.
It's usefull for development (for netboot) and it also helps to boot

Controller supports edge-triggered and level-triggered interrupts but
current version of the driver does not have interrupts support
Summary:
i.MX5 and PowerPC use a very similar eSDHC controller, which is also
similar to the uSDHC controller used by i.MX6. The imx_sdhci driver works
almost completely with PowerPC, with some minor tweaks.
There is one caveat with this: reset currently does not work on PowerPC, so has
been #ifdef'd out until this can be tracked down and fixed. If resets are done
the controller will timeout all data transactions. Without a reset, it appears
to work just fine.
This is part 3, following up r308186 and r308187.
Test Plan:
This has been tested on a PowerPC QorIQ P1022 board. It has not been
tested on i.MX, but no regressions are expected.

Summary:
The hardware does not expose a classic SMBus interface.
Instead it has a lower level interface that can express a far richer
I2C protocol than what smbus offers. However, the interface does not
provide a way to explicitly generate the I2C stop and start conditions.
It's only possible to request that the stop condition is generated
after transferring the next byte in either direction. So, at least
one data byte must always be transferred.
Thus, some I2C sequences are impossible to generate, e.g., an equivalent
of smbus quick command (<start>-<slave addr>-<r/w bit>-<stop>).
At the same time isl(4) and cyapa(4) are moved to iicbus and now they use
iicbus_transfer for communication. Previously they used smbus_trans()
interface that is not defined by the SMBus protocol and was implemented
only by ig4(4). In fact, that interface was impossible to implement
for the typical SMBus controllers like intpm(4) or ichsmb(4) where
a type of the SMBus command must be programmed.
The plan is to remove smbus_trans() and all its uses.
As an aside, the smbus_trans() method deviates from the standard,
but perhaps backwards, FreeBSD convention of using 8-bit slave
addresses (shifted by 1 bit to the left). The method expects
7-bit addresses.
There is a user facing consequence of this change.
A user must now provide device hints for isl and cyapa that specify an iicbus to use
and a slave address on it.
On Chromebook hardware where isl and cyapa devices are commonly found
it is also possible to use a new chromebook_platform(4) driver that
automatically configures isl and cyapa devices. There is no need to
provide the device hints in that case,
Right now smbus(4) driver tries to discover all slaves on the bus.
That is very dangerous. Fortunately, the probing code uses smbus_trans()
to do its job, so it is really enabled for ig4 only.
The plan is to remove that auto-probing code and smbus_trans().

Summary:
The Freescale e500v2 PowerPC core does not use a standard FPU.
Instead, it uses a Signal Processing Engine (SPE)--a DSP-style vector processor
unit, which doubles as a FPU. The PowerPC SPE ABI is incompatible with the
stock powerpc ABI, so a new MACHINE_ARCH was created to deal with this.
Additionaly, the SPE opcodes overlap with Altivec, so these are mutually
exclusive. Taking advantage of this fact, a new file, powerpc/booke/spe.c, was
created with the same function set as in powerpc/powerpc/altivec.c, so it
becomes effectively a drop-in replacement. setjmp/longjmp were modified to save
the upper 32-bits of the now-64-bit GPRs (upper 32-bits are only accessible by
the SPE).
Note: This does _not_ support the SPE in the e500v1, as the e500v1 SPE does not
support double-precision floating point.
Also, without a new MACHINE_ARCH it would be impossible to provide binary
packages which utilize the SPE.
Additionally, no work has been done to support ports, work is needed for this.
This also means no newer gcc can yet be used. However, gcc's powerpc support
has been refactored which would make adding a powerpcspe-freebsd target very
easy.
Test Plan:
This was lightly tested on a RouterBoard RB800 and an AmigaOne A1222
(P1022-based) board, compiled against the new ABI. Base system utilities
(/bin/sh, /bin/ls, etc) still function appropriately, the system is able to boot
multiuser.

to add actions that run when a TCP frame is sent or received on a TCP
session in the ESTABLISHED state. In the base tree, this functionality is
only used for the h_ertt module, which is used by the cc_cdg, cc_chd, cc_hd,
and cc_vegas congestion control modules.
Presently, we incur overhead to check for hooks each time a TCP frame is
sent or received on an ESTABLISHED TCP session.
This change adds a new compile-time option (TCP_HHOOK) to determine whether
to include the hhook(9) framework for TCP. To retain backwards
compatibility, I added the TCP_HHOOK option to every configuration file that
already defined "options INET". (Therefore, this patch introduces no
functional change. In order to see a functional difference, you need to
compile a custom kernel without the TCP_HHOOK option.) This change will
allow users to easily exclude this functionality from their kernel, should
they wish to do so.
Note that any users who use a custom kernel configuration and use one of the
congestion control modules listed above will need to add the TCP_HHOOK
option to their kernel configuration.

Runtime services require special execution environment for the call.
Besides that, OS must inform firmware about runtime virtual memory map
which will be active during the calls, with the SetVirtualAddressMap()
runtime call, done while the 1:1 mapping is still used. There are two
complication: the SetVirtualAddressMap() effectively must be done from
loader, which needs to know kernel address map in advance. More,
despite not explicitely mentioned in the specification, both 1:1 and
the map passed to SetVirtualAddressMap() must be active during the
SetVirtualAddressMap() call. Second, there are buggy BIOSes which
require both mappings active during runtime calls as well, most likely
because they fail to identify all relocations to perform.
On amd64, we can get rid of both problems by providing 1:1 mapping for
the duration of runtime calls, by temprorary remapping user addresses.
As result, we avoid the need for loader to know about future kernel
address map, and avoid bugs in BIOSes. Typically BIOS only maps
something in low 4G. If not runtime bugs, we would take advantage of
the DMAP, as previous versions of this patch did.
Similar but more complicated trick can be used even for i386 and 32bit
runtime, if and when the EFI boot on i386 is supported. We would need
a trampoline page, since potentially whole 4G of VA would be switched
on calls, instead of only userspace portion on amd64.
Context switches are disabled for the duration of the call, FPU access
is granted, and interrupts are not disabled. The later is possible
because kernel is mapped during calls.
To test, the sysctl mib debug.efi_time is provided, setting it to 1
makes one call to EFI get_time() runtime service, on success the efitm
structure is printed to the control terminal. Load efirt.ko, or add
EFIRT option to the kernel config, to enable code.
