MFC after: 2 weeks
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.

2. Remove a now-spurious BEFORE, since ntpdate now REQUIRE's named
3. Replace the call to set rcvar with what that function would output,

unlikely the name of the named process or service will change any time soon.
4. Resort the order the variables at the top of the file to a more
traditional format, and remove a spurious required_dirs from the top, as it
works better after load_rc_config.
5. We do not want the default reload method with named, so define a simple

control a running daemon with rndc to start with, but given that this is
already here, let's do it right. I hope that future generations will
however resist the tempation to add reconfig to extra_commands.
6. By the same token, we want to use rndc to shut down named, but given
that by defining a stop function we lose the "find the process by its
pid file in an emergency" goodness of rc.subr, try to do something useful
in the event that rndc is not available, and keep the user informed.
7. Replace some "test -f" with "test -r" to handle the unlikely event
that the relevant file exists, but is unreadable.
8. Twiddle whitespace in a few areas, remove a spurious blank line,
a bogus double space, and try to do better indenting.
9. Improve generation of the rndc.key file significantly
a. If for some reason a user has an rndc.conf file, assume that they
did that on purpose, and hence know what they are doing, so leave them alone.
b. Introduce a named_uid configuration variable so that the user which owns
the rndc.key file and the user named runs as always match, and is more
easily configurable. This should dramatically reduce problems with rndc.
c. Also test that the rndc.key file size is greater than zero, rather than
simply that the file exists. I have seen at least one user report this exact
problem, and although neither of us is sure where the empty file came from,
the fix is simple, so include it.
d. Rather than try to create an rndc.key file in both /etc/namedb and the
chroot'ed /etc/namedb, assume that they are be the same (which they should
be), and only create the file in the chroot'ed version of the directory.

1. Feature: for flexibility reasons and as a prerequisite to clean
shutdowns, allow the configuration of a stop/shutdown command
via rc.conf variable "jail_<name>_exec_stop" in addition to the
start/boot command (rc.conf variable "jail_<name>_exec_start"). For
backward compatibility reasons, rc.conf variable "jail_<name>_exec"
is still supported, too.
2. Debug: Add the used boot/shutdown commands to the debug output of
the /etc/rc.d/jail script, too.
3. Security: Run the Jail start/boot command in a cleaned environment
to not leak information from the host to the Jail during startup.
4. Feature: Run the Jail stop/shutdown command "jail_<name>_exec_stop" on
"/etc/rc.d/jail stop <name>" to allow a graceful shutdown of the Jail
before its processes are just killed.
5. Bugfix: When killing the remaining Jail processes give the processes
time to actually perform their termination sequence. Without this the
subsequent umount(8) operations usually fail because the resources
are still in use. Additionally, if after trying to TERM-inate the
processes there are still processes hanging around, finally just KILL
them.
6. Bugfix: In rc.shutdown, if running inside a Jail, skip the /etc/rc.d/*
scripts which are flagged with the KEYWORD "nojail" to allow the
correct operation of rc.shutdown under jail_<name>_exec_stop="/bin/sh
/etc/rc.shutdown". This is analogous to what /etc/rc does inside a Jail.

by default when named is enabled. Also, improve our default directory
layout by creating /var/named/etc/namedb/{master|slave} directories,
and use the former for the generated localhost* files.
Rather than using pax to copy device entries, mount devfs in the
chroot directory.
There may be some corner cases where things need to be adjusted,
but overall this structure has been well tested on a production
network, and should serve the needs of the vast majority of users.
UPDATING has instructions on how to do the conversion for those
with existing configurations.
complete backout as the ntpd_sync_on_start etc/rc.conf tunable is still
present, though the default is now NO (was YES). Since we're no longer
syncing time at startup by default when ntpd is enabled (as was the case
24hrs ago), remove UPDATING entry pointing out that ntpd(1) -g is slower
than ntpdate(1).
Hopefully ntpd_sync_on_start="YES" can be made the default for -CURRENT
after 5.3 is cut. At the very least, this should be set to YES when a
user requests to have ntpd enabled via sysinstall(1).

calls to ntpd -g. ntpd is noticably slower than ntpdate, but is also more
accurate. This removes the nasty hackery in rc.d/ntpdate that would parse
out ntp servers from /etc/ntp.conf (ntpd knows how to read its own config
file). By default, ntpd *will* sync with its listed time servers. To
turn this off so that ntpd does not sync, ntpd_sync_on_start="NO" can be
added to /etc/rc.conf. If ntpd is not enabled (the default), then time is
not synced on startup. ntpdate's use has been depreciated by the ntpd
authors for quite some time so this change shouldn't be unexpected.

- Ask the user up to X times (3 by default) for the pass-phrase, if
it is incorrect the first time.
- Add support for storing the lockfiles in another other directory
than /etc.
- Document that it is possible to override the location of each single
lockfile.

ip6addrctl_enable is set to YES, address selection policy is installed
into kernel.
If there is /etc/ip6addrctl.conf, it is used for address selection
policy. Even if there is no /etc/ip6addrctl.conf, we install default
policy. In this case, if ipv6_enable is set to YES, we use address
selection policy described in RFC 3484 as default. Otherwise, we
install priority policy for IPv4 address.
The default of ip6addrctl_enable is NO for now. However, it may
better to enable it by default.

thing, but we're ready to move on.
2. Remove the -g default argument in named_flags. It doesn't actually do
what most users think it does, and what most users want it to do is already
accomplished with a proper default group for the bind user, which we have.
Also, the -g knob does something entirely different in BIND 9, which leads
to a lot of needless confusion/aggravation.
3. In the rc.d script, don't bogusly override $command, or $rc_flags. Both
are adequately handled in rc.conf[.local].
4. DO properly override $rc_flags if user has named_chrootdir set.
This may need to be revisited, but should be ok for now.
5. Protect all chrootdir-related bits under that variable, instead of
named_rcng.
There is more work to be done here, especially in the area of BIND 9
compatibility, but this is a start at least.

include adding support for CPU frequency changes.
Add a devd.conf entry for calling this script.
The default values for this are:
performance_cx_lowest="HIGH" # Use HLT (C0) online
performance_throttle_state="HIGH" # 100% (no throttling)
economy_cx_lowest="LOW" # Use the lowest Cx state possible
economy_throttle_state="HIGH" # 100% (no throttling)

ataraid_enable="YES"
ataraid_devices="ar0"
ataraid_ar0_set="ad2 ad3"
ataraid_ar0_type="RAID1"
Because there is no "correct" way of doing ATA raid (ie, geom vs.
atacontrol vs. vinum) that is bikeshed proof, this rcng script stays within
the bounds of atacontrol and assumes that other RAID solutions for GEOM or
vinum will end up in a different rcNG script.

A "driftfile" caches the oscillator offset estimate from boot to boot,
having this means faster and less bumpy time synchronization. Will
be overridden by any value in the config file.
