is identified as "DOS/MBR boot sector" as opposed to "x86 boot sector".
This trips up vmrun.sh when using the new file(1) and makes it want to boot
into the installer instead.
Fix this by just looking for "boot sector" instead.
there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

If passed cm->cmsg_len was below cmsghdr size the experssion:
datalen = (caddr_t)cm + cm->cmsg_len - (caddr_t)data;
would give negative result. However, in practice it would not
result in a crash because the kernel would try to obtain garbage fds
for given process and would error out with EBADF.

- Don't claim that bvmdebug is amd64-only (it is also a device, not an

Instead of trying to guess size of disk I/O operations (it just won't work
that way for newly added commands, and is equal to data move size for old
ones), account data move traffic. If disk I/Os are that interesting, then
backends have to account and provide that information.
Block backend already exports the information about disk I/Os via devstat,
so having it here too is excessive.

<sys/time.h>. INT64_MAX actually requires __INT64_C() hack to get the
type right on exotic architectures (e.g. on ones with 63-bit ints or long
0x7fffffffffffffff is unsigned int or long). The hardcoded LL suffix is
good enough to avoid these problems for SBT_MAX (it makes the type always
signed long long, without overflow since long long has at least 64 bits).
Many thanks to Bruce Evans for the time spent me to explain this.

map the bucket to an RSS queue, then map the queue to a CPU ID.
This way the bucket->queue and queue->CPU mapping can change
over time.
Introduce IP_RSSBUCKETID - which instead looks up the RSS bucket.
User applications can then map the RSS bucket to a CPU.
There's 128 indirection table entries which correspond to the
low 7 bits of the 32 bit RSS hash. Each value will correspond
to an RSS bucket. (Then each RSS bucket currently will map
to a CPU.)
This is a more explicit way of figuring out which RSS bucket
is in each RSS indirection slot. It can be inferred by the other
methods but I'd rather drivers use something more simplified and
explicit.
This is different than the amount shown for the process e.g. by

Split global ctl_lock, historically protecting most of CTL context:
- remaining ctl_lock now protects lists of fronends and backends;
- per-LUN lun_lock(s) protect LUN-specific information;
- per-thread queue_lock(s) protect request queues.
This allows to radically reduce congestion on ctl_lock.
Create multiple worker threads, depending on number of CPUs, and assign
each LUN to one of them. This allows to spread load between multiple CPUs,
still avoiging congestion on queues and LUNs locks.
On 40-core server, exporting 5 LUNs, each backed by gstripe of SATA SSDs,
accessed via 6 iSCSI connections, this change improves peak request rate
from 250K to 680K IOPS.
