This significantly helps the driver withstand large UDP workloads, though
it's still not perfect. I suspect the remaining work lies with handling
the OACTIVE flag, and also in possibly streamlining the interrupt handler
some. It is, however, nearly on par with the other popular gigabit drivers
in terms of stability now.
Implement the linux_io_* syscalls (AIO). They are only enabled if the native
AIO code is available (either compiled in to the kernel or as a module) at
the time the functions are used. If the AIO stuff is not available there
will be a ENOSYS.
From the submitter:
---snip---
DESIGN NOTES:
1. Linux permits a process to own multiple AIO queues (distinguished by
"context"), but FreeBSD creates only one single AIO queue per process.
My code maintains a request queue (STAILQ of queue(3)) per "context",
and throws all AIO requests of all contexts owned by a process into
the single FreeBSD per-process AIO queue.
When the process calls io_destroy(2), io_getevents(2), io_submit(2) and
io_cancel(2), my code can pick out requests owned by the specified context
from the single FreeBSD per-process AIO queue according to the per-context
request queues maintained by my code.
2. The request queue maintained by my code stores contrast information between
Linux IO control blocks (struct linux_iocb) and FreeBSD IO control blocks
(struct aiocb). FreeBSD IO control block actually exists in userland memory
space, required by FreeBSD native aio_XXXXXX(2).
3. It is quite troubling that the function io_getevents() of libaio-0.3.105
needs to use Linux-specific "struct aio_ring", which is a partial mirror
of context in user space. I would rather take the address of context in
kernel as the context ID, but the io_getevents() of libaio forces me to
take the address of the "ring" in user space as the context ID.
To my surprise, one comment line in the file "io_getevents.c" of
libaio-0.3.105 reads:
Ben will hate me for this

it introduced a check after the call to file system's get pages method
that assumes that the get pages method does not change the array of pages
that is passed to it. In the case of vnode_pager_generic_getpages(),
this assumption has been incorrect. The contents of the array of pages
may be shifted by vnode_pager_generic_getpages(). Likely, the problem
has been hidden by vnode_pager_haspage() limiting the set of pages that
are passed to vnode_pager_generic_getpages() such that a shift never
occurs.
The fix implemented herein is to adjust the pointer to the array of pages
rather than shifting the pages within the array.

we thought that it was optimized well enough for the one file system
that supports it (ffs) and harmless for other file systems (except
layered ones which already get the layering for VOP_SETATTR() wrong).
However, nfs_setattr() doesn't do much parameter checking, so when
it gets a combination of parameters that it doesn't understand, it
always does a Setattr RPC. This RPC can't do anything good, and for
VA_MARK_ATIME it is null except for wasting a lot of time.
This is the smallest and easiest to fix of several bugs that have
increased the number of RPCs for kernel builds on nfs by more than
100% since 2004-11-05. The real-time increase depends on network
latency and parallelization and can also be very large (approaching
the same percentage for unparallelized operations like "make depend"

not trust jails enough to execute audit related system calls. An example of
this is with su(1), or login(1) within prisons. So, if the syscall request
comes from a jail return ENOSYS. This will cause these utilities to operate
as if audit is not present in the kernel.
Looking forward, this problem will be remedied by allowing non privileged

this will be implemented needs to be worked out.
This change should fix situations when options AUDIT has been compiled into

since they just duplicated the MI `reset' command. Instead of removing

way of killing the `r' alias for `reset'. Remove the `registers' command
that was used to kill the alias.
Turn the powerpc and sparc64 MD `halt' command into an MI command.
A copy of sparc64/db_interface.c grew in sun4v just after I found the

identical. Duplicated commands come out duplicated in ddb's online
help, but cause large problems when used (e.g., on i386's with 2 halt's
and an hwatch, typing h doesn' give the expected message about an
ambiguous command, but hangs like the halt command or a looping parseri
would).

The --More-- prompt is now cleared by explicitly forcing out the

- `t' is now an official alias for `trace'. It used to be an unofficial

- `registers' is now an alias for `show registers'. This is a hack to
break the unofficial `r' alias for `reset'. `r' really means
`registers' in some debuggers, so I sometimes type it accidentally and
am annoyed when it resets the system. A short command shouldn't have
such a large effect. Now at least `res' must be typed to disambiguate
`reset'.
