This commit, long overdue, contains contributions in the last 2 years
from Stefano Garzarella, Giuseppe Lettieri, Vincenzo Maffione, including:
+ fixes on monitor ports
+ the 'ptnet' virtual device driver, and ptnetmap backend, for
high speed virtual passthrough on VMs (bhyve fixes in an upcoming commit)
+ improved emulated netmap mode
+ more robust error handling
+ removal of stale code

to add actions that run when a TCP frame is sent or received on a TCP
session in the ESTABLISHED state. In the base tree, this functionality is
only used for the h_ertt module, which is used by the cc_cdg, cc_chd, cc_hd,
and cc_vegas congestion control modules.
Presently, we incur overhead to check for hooks each time a TCP frame is
sent or received on an ESTABLISHED TCP session.
This change adds a new compile-time option (TCP_HHOOK) to determine whether
to include the hhook(9) framework for TCP. To retain backwards
compatibility, I added the TCP_HHOOK option to every configuration file that
already defined "options INET". (Therefore, this patch introduces no
functional change. In order to see a functional difference, you need to
compile a custom kernel without the TCP_HHOOK option.) This change will
allow users to easily exclude this functionality from their kernel, should
they wish to do so.
Note that any users who use a custom kernel configuration and use one of the
congestion control modules listed above will need to add the TCP_HHOOK
option to their kernel configuration.

This enables some features of the DIU, using a static configuration,
specified either via a 'edid' property on the 'display' FDT node, or a
'video-mode' environment variable (bootarg). 'video-mode' was chosen because it
matches u-boot's naming, so it can be set with:
setenv bootargs video-mode=${video-mode}
at the u-boot CLI.
Mouse cursor is not supported currently, as a hardware cursor is not supported
by framebuffer VT yet. Currently it only supports a 32bpp ARGB (actually BGRA)
format, and only a single composite plane, at up to 1280x1024.

Runtime services require special execution environment for the call.
Besides that, OS must inform firmware about runtime virtual memory map
which will be active during the calls, with the SetVirtualAddressMap()
runtime call, done while the 1:1 mapping is still used. There are two
complication: the SetVirtualAddressMap() effectively must be done from
loader, which needs to know kernel address map in advance. More,
despite not explicitely mentioned in the specification, both 1:1 and
the map passed to SetVirtualAddressMap() must be active during the
SetVirtualAddressMap() call. Second, there are buggy BIOSes which
require both mappings active during runtime calls as well, most likely
because they fail to identify all relocations to perform.
On amd64, we can get rid of both problems by providing 1:1 mapping for
the duration of runtime calls, by temprorary remapping user addresses.
As result, we avoid the need for loader to know about future kernel
address map, and avoid bugs in BIOSes. Typically BIOS only maps
something in low 4G. If not runtime bugs, we would take advantage of
the DMAP, as previous versions of this patch did.
Similar but more complicated trick can be used even for i386 and 32bit
runtime, if and when the EFI boot on i386 is supported. We would need
a trampoline page, since potentially whole 4G of VA would be switched
on calls, instead of only userspace portion on amd64.
Context switches are disabled for the duration of the call, FPU access
is granted, and interrupts are not disabled. The later is possible
because kernel is mapped during calls.
To test, the sysctl mib debug.efi_time is provided, setting it to 1
makes one call to EFI get_time() runtime service, on success the efitm
structure is printed to the control terminal. Load efirt.ko, or add
EFIRT option to the kernel config, to enable code.

In order to make CloudABI work on ARMv6, start off by copying over the
sysvec for ARM64 and adjust it to use 32-bit registers. Also add code
for fetching arguments from the stack if needed, as there are fewer
register than on ARM64.
Also import the vDSO that is needed to invoke system calls. This vDSO
uses the intra procedure call register (ip) to store the system call
number. This is a bit simpler than what native FreeBSD does, as FreeBSD
uses r7, while preserving the original r7 into ip.
This sysvec seems to be complete enough to start CloudABI processes.
These processes are capable of linking in the vDSO and are therefore
capable of executing (most?) system calls successfully. Unfortunately,
the biggest show stopper is still that TLS is completely broken:
- The linker used by CloudABI, LLD, still has troubles with some of the
relocations needed for TLS. See LLVM bug 30218 for more details.
- Whereas FreeBSD uses the tpidruro register for TLS, for CloudABI I
want to make use of tpidrurw, so that userspace can modify the base
address directly. This is needed for efficient emulation.
Unfortunately, this register doesn't seem to be preserved across
context switches yet.

The cxgbev/cxlv driver supports Virtual Function devices for Chelsio
T4 and T4 adapters. The VF devices share most of their code with the
existing PF4 driver (cxgbe/cxl) and as such the VF device driver
currently depends on the PF4 driver.
Similar to the cxgbe/cxl drivers, the VF driver includes a t4vf/t5vf
PCI device driver that attaches to the VF device. It then creates
child cxgbev/cxlv devices representing ports assigned to the VF.
By default, the PF driver assigns a single port to each VF.
t4vf_hw.c contains VF-specific routines from the shared code used to
fetch VF-specific parameters from the firmware.
t4_vf.c contains the VF-specific PCI device driver and includes its
own attach routine.
VF devices are required to use a different firmware request when
transmitting packets (which in turn requires a different CPL message
to encapsulate messages). This alternate firmware request does not
permit chaining multiple packets in a single message, so each packet
results in a firmware request. In addition, the different CPL message
requires more detailed information when enabling hardware checksums,
so parse_pkt() on VF devices must examine L2 and L3 headers for all
packets (not just TSO packets) for VF devices. Finally, L2 checksums
on non-UDP/non-TCP packets do not work reliably (the firmware trashes
the IPv4 fragment field), so IPv4 checksums for such packets are
calculated in software.
Most of the other changes in the non-VF-specific code are to expose
various variables and functions private to the PF driver so that they
can be used by the VF driver.
Note that a limited subset of cxgbetool functions are supported on VF
devices including register dumps, scheduler classes, and clearing of
statistics. In addition, TOE is not supported on VF devices, only for
the PF interfaces.

and SoC early boot contexts, and migrates mips/broadcom over to the new API.
This also replaces the previous adhoc device enumeration support implemented

- Fixed a minor bug in bhndb that logged an error when we attempted to map the

- Reverted use of the resource's start address as the ChipCommon enum_addr in
bhnd_read_chipid(). When called from bhndb, this address is found within the
host address space, resulting in an invalid bridged enum_addr.
- Added support for falling back on standard bus_activate_resource() in
bhnd_bus_generic_activate_resource(), enabling allocation of the bhnd_erom's
bhnd_resource directly from a nexus-attached bhnd(4) device.
- Removed BHND_BUS_GET_CORE_TABLE(); it has been replaced by the erom API.
- Added support for statically initializing bhnd_erom instances, for use prior
to malloc availability. The statically allocated buffer size is verified both
at runtime, and via a compile-time assertion (see BHND_EROM_STATIC_BYTES).
- bhnd_erom classes are registered within a module via a linker set, allowing
mips/broadcom to probe available EROM parser instances without creating a
strong reference to bcma/siba-specific symbols.

Idle page zeroing has been disabled by default on all architectures since

the idle-priority pagezero thread exacerbates contention for the free page
lock, and yields the CPU without releasing it in non-preemptive kernels. The
pagezero thread also does not behave correctly when superpage reservations

A nice thing about requiring a vDSO is that it makes it incredibly easy
to provide full support for running 32-bit processes on 64-bit systems.
Instead of letting the kernel be responsible for composing/decomposing
64-bit arguments across multiple registers/stack slots, all of this can
now be done in the vDSO. This means that there is no need to provide
duplicate copies of certain system calls, like the sys_lseek() and
freebsd32_lseek() we have for COMPAT_FREEBSD32.
This change imports a new vDSO from the CloudABI repository that has
automatically generated code in it that copies system call arguments
into a buffer, padding them to eight bytes and zero-extending any
pointers/size_t arguments. After returning from the kernel, it does the
inverse: extracting return values, in the process truncating
pointers/size_t values to 32 bits.

An optimization is in place to skip reading the .depend.* files with
'make install'. This was too strong and broke 'make all install' and
'make foo.o foo install'. Now only skip reading the dependency files
if all make targets ran are install targets.
The problem comes about because headers are only added in as a guessed
dependency if .depend.* files do not yet exist. If they do exist, even
if being skipped from being read, then the header dependencies are not
applied. This applies to all #included files, and not just headers.

Copy over amd64's cloudabi64_sysvec.c into i386 and tailor it to work.
Again, we use a system call convention similar to FreeBSD, except that
there is no support for indirect system calls (%eax == 0).
Where i386 differs from amd64 is that we have to store thread/process
entry arguments on the stack instead of using registers. We also have to
put an extra pointer on the stack for TLS (for GSBASE). Place that
pointer in the empty slot that is normally used to hold return
addresses. That seems to keep the code simple.
