Crypto file descriptors were added in the original OCF import as a way
to provide per-open data (specifically the list of symmetric
sessions). However, this gives a bit of a confusing API where one has
to open /dev/crypto and then invoke an ioctl to obtain a second file
descriptor. This also does not match the API used with /dev/crypto on
other BSDs or with Linux's /dev/crypto driver.
Character devices have gained support for per-open data via cdevpriv
since OCF was imported, so use cdevpriv to simplify the userland API
by permitting ioctls directly on /dev/crypto descriptors.
To provide backwards compatibility, CRIOGET now opens another
/dev/crypto descriptor via kern_openat() rather than dup'ing the
existing file descriptor. This preserves prior semantics in case
CRIOGET is invoked multiple times on a single file descriptor.

The last half year I've been working on a replacement TTY layer for the
FreeBSD kernel. The new TTY layer was designed to improve the following:
- Improved driver model:
The old TTY layer has a driver model that is not abstract enough to
make it friendly to use. A good example is the output path, where the
device drivers directly access the output buffers. This means that an
in-kernel PPP implementation must always convert network buffers into
TTY buffers.
If a PPP implementation would be built on top of the new TTY layer
(still needs a hooks layer, though), it would allow the PPP
implementation to directly hand the data to the TTY driver.
- Improved hotplugging:
With the old TTY layer, it isn't entirely safe to destroy TTY's from
the system. This implementation has a two-step destructing design,
where the driver first abandons the TTY. After all threads have left
the TTY, the TTY layer calls a routine in the driver, which can be
used to free resources (unit numbers, etc).
The pts(4) driver also implements this feature, which means
posix_openpt() will now return PTY's that are created on the fly.
- Improved performance:
One of the major improvements is the per-TTY mutex, which is expected
to improve scalability when compared to the old Giant locking.
Another change is the unbuffered copying to userspace, which is both
used on TTY device nodes and PTY masters.
Upgrading should be quite straightforward. Unlike previous versions,
existing kernel configuration files do not need to be changed, except
when they reference device drivers that are listed in UPDATING.
