thing it was still used for was to set the "global default" password
hash. Since the stock auth.conf contained nothing but comments, the
global default was actually the first algorithm in crypt(3)'s list,
which happens to be DES; I take the fact that nobody noticed as proof
that it was not used outside of crypt(3).
The only other use in our tree was in the Kerberos support code in
in tinyware's passwd(1). I removed that code in an earlier commit;
it would not have compiled anyway, as it only supported Kerberos IV.
The auth_getval() function is now a stub that always returns NULL,
which has the same effect as a functional auth_getval() with an
empty auth.conf.

Initial support for the AMD barcelona chipsets has been available in the
gcc43 branch under GPLv2 but was not included when the Core 2 support
was brought to the system gcc.
AMD and some linux distributions (OpenSUSE) did a backport of the amdfam10
support and made them available. Unfortunately this is still experimental
and while it can improve performance, enabling the CPUTYPE may break some
C++ ports (like clang).
Special care was taken to make sure that the patches predate the GPLv3
switch upstream.

and bmsafemap dependency structures in inodedep_lookup() and
bmsafemap_lookup() respectively. The setup of these structures must
be done while holding the soft-dependency mutex. If the inodedep is
allocated first, it may be freed in the I/O completion callback when
the mutex is released to allocate the bmsafemap. If the bmsafemap is
allocated first, it may be freed in the I/O completion callback when
the mutex is released to allocate the inodedep.
To resolve this problem, bmsafemap_lookup has had a parameter added
that allows a pre-malloc'ed bmsafemap to be passed in so that it does
not need to release the mutex to create a new bmsafemap. The
softdep_setup_inomapdep() routine pre-malloc's a bmsafemap dependency
before acquiring the mutex and starting to build the inodedep with a
call to inodedep_lookup(). The subsequent call to bmsafemap_lookup()
is passed this pre-allocated bmsafemap entry so that it need not
release the mutex if it needs to create a new one.

(or direct dispatch) behind the TXQ lock (which, remember, is doubling
as the TID lock too for now.)
This ensures that:
(a) the sequence number and the CCMP PN allocation is done together;
(b) overlapping transmit paths don't interleave frames, so we don't
end up with the original issue that triggered kern/166190.
Ie, that we don't end up with seqno A, B in thread 1, C, D in
thread 2, and they being queued to the software queue as "A C D B"
or similar, leading to the BAW stalls.
This has been tested:
* both STA and AP modes with INVARIANTS and WITNESS;
* TCP and UDP TX;
* both STA->AP and AP->STA.
STA is a Routerstation Pro (single CPU MIPS) and the AP is a dual-core
Centrino.

scheduled from the head of the software queue rather than trying to
queue the newly given frame.
This leads to some rather unfortunate out of order (but still valid
as it's inside the BAW) frame TX.
This now:
* Always queues the frame at the end of the software queue;
* Tries to direct dispatch the frame at the head of the software queue,
to try and fill up the hardware queue.
TODO:
* I should likely try to queue as many frames to the hardware as I can
at this point, rather than doing one at a time;
* ath_tx_xmit_aggr() may fail and this code assumes that it'll schedule
the TID. Otherwise TX may stall.

This is an unfortunate byproduct of how the routine is used - it's called
with the head frame on the queue, but if the frame is failed, it's inserted
into the tail of the queue.
Because of this, the sequence numbers would get all shuffled around and
the BAW would be bumped past this sequence number, that's now at the
end of the software queue. Then, whenever it's time for that frame
to be transmitted, it'll be immediately outside of the BAW and TX will
stall until the BAW catches up.
It can also result in all kinds of weird duplicate BAW frames, leading
to hilarious panics.

This showed up when doing heavy UDP throughput on SMP machines.
The problem with this is because the 802.11 sequence number is being
allocated separately to the CCMP PN replay number (which is assigned
during ieee80211_crypto_encap()).
Under significant throughput (200+ MBps) the TX path would be stressed
enough that frame TX/retry would force sequence number and PN allocation
to be out of order. So once the frames were reordered via 802.11 seqnos,
the CCMP PN would be far out of order, causing most frames to be discarded
by the receiver.
I've fixed this in some local work by being forced to:
(a) deal with the issues that lead to the parallel TX causing out of
order sequence numbers in the first place;
(b) fix all the packet queuing issues which lead to strange (but mostly
valid) TX.
I'll begin fixing these in a subsequent commit or five.
