Introduce ATA_CAM kernel option, turning ata(4) controller drivers into
cam(4) interface modules. When enabled, this options deprecates all ata(4)
peripheral drivers (ad, acd, ...) and interfaces and allows cam(4) drivers
(ada, cd, ...) and interfaces to be natively used instead.
As side effect of this, ata(4) mode setting code was completely rewritten
to make controller API more strict and permit above change. While doing
this, SATA revision was separated from PATA mode. It allows DMA-incapable
SATA devices to operate and makes hw.ata.atapi_dma tunable work again.
Also allow ata(4) controller drivers (except some specific or broken ones)
to handle larger data transfers. Previous constraint of 64K was artificial
and is not really required by PCI ATA BM specification or hardware.

modularize it so that new transports can be created.
Add a transport for SATA
Add a periph+protocol layer for ATA
Add a driver for AHCI-compliant hardware.
Add a maxio field to CAM so that drivers can advertise their max
I/O capability. Modify various drivers so that they are insulated
from the value of MAXPHYS.
The new ATA/SATA code supports AHCI-compliant hardware, and will override
the classic ATA driver if it is loaded as a module at boot time or compiled
into the kernel. The stack now support NCQ (tagged queueing) for increased
performance on modern SATA drives. It also supports port multipliers.
ATA drives are accessed via 'ada' device nodes. ATAPI drives are
accessed via 'cd' device nodes. They can all be enumerated and manipulated
via camcontrol, just like SCSI drives. SCSI commands are not translated to
their ATA equivalents; ATA native commands are used throughout the entire
stack, including camcontrol. See the camcontrol manpage for further
details. Testing this code may require that you update your fstab, and
possibly modify your BIOS to enable AHCI functionality, if available.
This code is very experimental at the moment. The userland ABI/API has
changed, so applications will need to be recompiled. It may change
further in the near future. The 'ada' device name may also change as
more infrastructure is completed in this project. The goal is to
eventually put all CAM busses and devices until newbus, allowing for
interesting topology and management options.
Few functional changes will be seen with existing SCSI/SAS/FC drivers,
though the userland ABI has still changed. In the future, transports
specific modules for SAS and FC may appear in order to better support
the topologies and capabilities of these technologies.
The modularization of CAM and the addition of the ATA/SATA modules is
meant to break CAM out of the mold of being specific to SCSI, letting it
grow to be a framework for arbitrary transports and protocols. It also
allows drivers to be written to support discrete hardware without
jeopardizing the stability of non-related hardware. While only an AHCI
driver is provided now, a Silicon Image driver is also in the works.
Drivers for ICH1-4, ICH5-6, PIIX, classic IDE, and any other hardware
is possible and encouraged. Help with new transports is also encouraged.

When trying to read scratched or damaged CDs and DVDs, the default
mechanism is sub-optimal. Programs like ddrescue do much better if
you turn off retries entirely, since their algorithms are designed
scan big areas fast, then winnow the areas down. Turning off retries
speeds these programs up by as much as 20x, since the drive is able to
'stream past' many small errors...
The sysctl/tunable kern.cam.cd.retry_count controls this. That
defaults to '4' (for a total of 5 attempts). Setting to 0 turns off
all retry attempts.

the underlying drive had been hot-unplugged from the system. Here
is a specific example. Filesystem code had opened /dev/da1s1e.
Subsequently, the drive was hot-unplugged. This (correctly) caused
all of the associated /dev/da1* entries to be deleted. When the
filesystem later realized that the drive was gone it closed the
device, reducing the write-access counts to 0 on the geom providers
for da1s1e, da1s1, and da1. This caused geom to re-taste the
providers, resulting in the devices being created again. When the
drive was hot-plugged back in, it resulted in duplicate /dev entries
for da1s1e, da1s1, and da1.
This fix adds a new disk_gone() function which is called by CAM when a
drive goes away. It orphans all of the providers associated with the
drive, setting an error condition of ENXIO in each one. In addition,
we prevent a re-taste on last close for writing if an error condition
has been set in the provider.

Previously the "struct disk" were owned by the device driver and this
gave us problems when the device disappared and the users of that device
were not immediately disappearing.
Now the struct disk is allocate with a new call, disk_alloc() and owned
by geom_disk and just abandonned by the device driver when disk_create()
is called.
Unfortunately, this results in a ton of "s/\./->/" changes to device
drivers.

The sysctl code does blocking mallocs (M_WAITOK), which causes problems
if malloc(9) actually needs to sleep.
The eventual fix for this issue will involve moving the CAM probe process
inside a kernel thread. For now, though, I have fixed the issue by moving
dynamic sysctl variable creation for these two drivers to a task queue
running in a kernel thread.
The existing task queues (taskqueue_swi and taskqueue_swi_giant) run in
software interrupt handlers, which wouldn't fix the problem at hand. So I
have created a new task queue, taskqueue_thread, that runs inside a kernel
thread. (It also runs outside of Giant -- clients must explicitly acquire
and release Giant in their taskqueue functions.)

a number of related problems along the way.
- Automatically detect CDROM drives that can't handle 6 byte mode
sense and mode select, and adjust our command size accordingly.
We have to handle this in the cd(4) driver (where the buffers are
allocated), since the parameter list length is different for the
6 and 10 byte mode sense commands.
- Remove MODE_SENSE and MODE_SELECT translation removed in ATAPICAM
and in the umass(4) driver, since there's no way for that to work
properly.
- Add a quirk entry for CDROM drives that just hang when they get a 6
byte mode sense or mode select. The reason for the quirk must be
documented in a PR, and all quirks must be approved by
ken@FreeBSD.org. This is to make sure that we fully understand why
each quirk is needed. Once the CAM_NEW_TRAN_CODE is finished, we
should be able to remove any such quirks, since we'll know what
protocol the drive speaks (SCSI, ATAPI, etc.) and therefore whether
we should use 6 or 10 byte mode sense/select commands.
- Change the way the da(4) handles the no_6_byte sysctl. There is
now a per-drive sysctl to set the minimum command size for that
particular disk. (Since you could have multiple disks with
multiple requirements in one system.)
- Loader tunable support for all the sysctls in the da(4) and cd(4)
drivers.
- Add a CDIOCCLOSE ioctl for cd(4) (bde pointed this out a long
time ago).
- Add a media validation routine (cdcheckmedia()) to the cd(4)
driver, to fix some problems bde pointed out a long time ago. We
now allow open() to succeed no matter what, but if we don't detect
valid media, the user can only issue CDIOCCLOSE or CDIOCEJECT
ioctls.
- The media validation routine also reads the table of contents off
the drive. We use the table of contents to implement the
CDIOCPLAYTRACKS ioctl using the PLAY AUDIO MSF command. The
PLAY AUDIO TRACK INDEX command that we previously used was
deprecated after SCSI-2. It works in every SCSI CDROM I've tried,
but doesn't seem to work on ATAPI CDROM drives. We still use the
play audio track index command if we don't have a valid TOC, but
I suppose it'll fail anyway in that case.
- Add _len() versions of scsi_mode_sense() and scsi_mode_select() so
that we can specify the minimum command length.
- Fix a couple of formatting problems in the sense printing code.
