The EIP-97 is a packet processing module found on the ESPRESSObin. This
commit adds a crypto(9) driver for the crypto and hash engine in this
device. An initial skeleton driver that could attach and submit
requests was written by loos and others at Netgate, and the driver was
finished by me.
Support for separate AAD and output buffers will be added in a separate
commit, to simplify merging to stable/12 (where those features don't
exist).

The Parallel Port SCSI adapter was interesting for 100MB ZIP drives, but is no
longer used or maintained. Remove it from the tree.
The Parallel Port microsequencer (microseq.9) is now mostly unused in the tree,
but remains. PPI still refrences it, but doesn't use its full functionality.

An i2c bus can be divided into segments which can be selectively connected
and disconnected from the main bus. This is usually done to enable using
multiple slave devices having the same address, by isolating the devices
onto separate bus segments, only one of which is connected to the main bus
at once.
There are several types of i2c bus muxes, which break down into two general
categories...
- Muxes which are themselves i2c slaves. These devices respond to i2c
commands on their upstream bus, and based on those commands, connect
various downstream buses to the upstream. In newbus terms, they are both
a child of an iicbus and the parent of one or more iicbus instances.
- Muxes which are not i2c devices themselves. Such devices are part of the
i2c bus electrically, but in newbus terms their parent is some other
bus. The association with the upstream bus must be established by
separate metadata (such as FDT data).
In both cases, the mux driver has one or more iicbus child instances
representing the downstream buses. The mux driver implements the iicbus_if
interface, as if it were an iichb host bridge/i2c controller driver. It
services the IO requests sent to it by forwarding them to the iicbus
instance representing the upstream bus, after electrically connecting the
upstream bus to the downstream bus that hosts the i2c slave device which
made the IO request.
The net effect is automatic mux switching which is transparent to slaves on
the downstream buses. They just do i2c IO they way they normally do, and the
bus is electrically connected for the duration of the IO and then idled when
it is complete.
The existing iicbus_if callback() method is enhanced so that the parameter
passed to it can be a struct which contains a device_t for the requesting
bus and slave devices. This change is done by adding a flag that indicates
the extra values are present, and making the flags field the first field of
a new args struct. If the flag is set, the iichb or mux driver can recast
the pointer-to-flags into a pointer-to-struct and access the extra
fields. Thus abi compatibility with older drivers is retained (but a mux
cannot exist on the bus with the older iicbus driver in use.)
A new set of core support routines exists in iicbus.c. This code will help
implement mux drivers for any type of mux hardware by supplying all the
boilerplate code that forwards IO requests upstream. It also has code for
parsing metadata and instantiating the child iicbus instances based on it.
Two new hardware mux drivers are added. The ltc430x driver supports the
LTC4305/4306 mux chips which are controlled via i2c commands. The
iic_gpiomux driver supports any mux hardware which is controlled by
manipulating the state of one or more gpio pins. Test Plan
Tested locally using a variety of mux'd bus configurations involving both
ltc4305 and a homebrew gpio-controlled mux. Tested configurations included
cascaded muxes (unlikely in the real world, but useful to prove that 'it all
just works' in terms of the automatic switching and upstream forwarding of
IO requests).
NetGDB(4) is a component of a system using a panic-time network stack to
remotely debug crashed FreeBSD kernels over the network, instead of
traditional serial interfaces.
There are three pieces in the complete NetGDB system.
First, a dedicated proxy server must be running to accept connections from
both NetGDB and gdb(1), and pass bidirectional traffic between the two
protocols.
Second, the NetGDB client is activated much like ordinary 'gdb' and
similarly to 'netdump' in ddb(4) after a panic. Like other debugnet(4)
clients (netdump(4)), the network interface on the route to the proxy server
must be online and support debugnet(4).
Finally, the remote (k)gdb(1) uses 'target remote <proxy>:<port>' (like any
other TCP remote) to connect to the proxy server.
The NetGDB v1 protocol speaks the literal GDB remote serial protocol, and
uses a 1:1 relationship between GDB packets and sequences of debugnet
packets (fragmented by MTU). There is no encryption utilized to keep
debugging sessions private, so this is only appropriate for local
segments or trusted networks.

starting at the max. domain, and then work down. Then existing FreeBSD
drivers will attach. Interrupt routing from the VMD MSI-X to the NVME
drive is not well known, so any interrupt is sent to all children that
register.
VROC used Intel meta data so graid(8) works with it. However, graid(8)
supports RAID 0,1,10 for read and write. I have some early code to
support writes with RAID 5. Note that RAID 5 can have life issues
with SSDs since it can cause write amplification from updating the parity
data.
Hot plug support needs a change to skip the following check to work:
if (pcib_request_feature(dev, PCI_FEATURE_HP) != 0) {

minute it got renamed to ads111x to reflect its support for many related

NANDFS has been broken for years. Remove it. The NAND drivers that
remain are for ancient parts that are no longer relevant. They are
polled, have terrible performance and just for ancient arm
hardware. NAND parts have evolved significantly from this early work
and little to none of it would be relevant should someone need to
update to support raw nand. This code has been off by default for
years and has violated the vnode protocol leading to panics since it
was committed.

This driver was marked as gone in 12. We're at 13 now. Remove it.
Data from nycbug's dmesg cache shows only one potential user,
suggesting it never was used much. However, even though this device
has been obsolete for 15 years at least, sys/joystick.h is included in
a number of graphics packages still, so that remains. A full exprun
is needed before that can be removed.

I held the mistaken belief this was completely unused. While the
driver is unused and likely not relevant for a long time,
sys/joystick.h lives on in maybe half a dozen ports, even though
hardware to use it hasn't been widely used in maybe 15 years.
