The current TSO limitation feature only takes the total number of
bytes in an mbuf chain into account and does not limit by the number
of mbufs in a chain. Some kinds of hardware is limited by two
factors. One is the fragment length and the second is the fragment
count. Both of these limits need to be taken into account when doing
TSO. Else some kinds of hardware might have to drop completely valid
mbuf chains because they cannot loaded into the given hardware's DMA
engine. The new way of doing TSO limitation has been made backwards
compatible as input from other FreeBSD developers and will use
defaults for values not set.

many thanks for their continued support of FreeBSD.
While I'm there, also implement a new build knob, WITHOUT_HYPERV to
disable building and installing of the HyperV utilities when necessary.
The HyperV utilities are only built for i386 and amd64 targets.
This is a stable/10 candidate for inclusion with 10.1-RELEASE.

Huawei. It might appear as if the firmware is allocating memory blocks
according to the USB transfer size and if there is initially a lot of
data, like at the answering machine prompt, it simply dies without any
apparent reason. The simple workaround for this is to force a zero
length packet at hardware level after every 512 bytes of data. This
will force the other side to use smaller memory blocks aswell.

an mbuf's storage (internal or external).
Add a new M_SIZE() mbuf macro that returns the size of an mbuf's
storage (internal or external).
These contrast with m_data and m_len, which are with respect to data
in the buffer, rather than the buffer itself.
Rewrite M_LEADINGSPACE() and M_TRAILINGSPACE() in terms of M_START()
and M_SIZE().
This is done as we currently have many instances of using mbuf flags
to generate pointers or lengths for internal storage in header and
regular mbufs, as well as to external storage. Rather than replicate
this logic throughout the network stack, centralising the
implementation will make it easier for us to refine mbuf storage.
This should also help reduce bugs by limiting the amount of
mbuf-type-specific pointer arithmetic. Followup changes will
propagate use of the macros throughout the stack.
M_SIZE() conflicts with one macro in the Chelsio driver; rename that
macro in a slightly unsatisfying way to eliminate the collision.

device drivers with calls to the centralised m_print() implementation.
While the formatting and output details differ a little, the content
is essentially the same, and it is unlikely anyone has used this
debugging output in some time.
This change reduces awareness of mbuf cluster allocation (and,
especially, the M_EXT flag) outside of the mbuf allocator, which will
make it easier to refine the external storage mechanism without
disrupting drivers in the future.
Style bugs are preserved.

The nmdm code enforces a number between the 'nmdm' and 'A|B' portions
of the device name. This is then used as a unit number, and sprintf'd
back into the tty name. If leading zeros were used in the name,
the created device name is different than the string used for the
clone-open (e.g. /dev/nmdm0001A will result in /dev/nmdm1A).
Since unit numbers are no longer required with the updated tty
code, there seems to be no reason to force the string to be a
number. The fix is to allow an arbitrary string between
'nmdm' and 'A|B', within the constraints of devfs names. This allows
all existing user of numeric strings to continue to work, and also
allows more meaningful names to be used, such as bhyve VM names.
Tested on amd64, i386 and ppc64.

This fixes a bug where scroll lock would not work for tty #0 when using
vt_vga's textmode. The reason was that this window is created with a
static 256x100 buffer, larger than the real size of 80x25.
Now, in vt_change_font() and vt_compute_drawable_area(), we still
perform operations even of the window has no font loaded (this is the
case in textmode here vw->vw_font == NULL). One of these operation
resizes the buffer accordingly.
In vt_compute_drawable_area(), we take the terminal size as is (ie.
80x25) for the drawable area.
The font argument to vt_set_border() is removed (it was never used) and
the code now uses the computed drawable area instead of re-doing its own
calculation.

The rules turn out to be:
* for non-aggregation session TX queues - it's either sent or not sent.
* for aggregation session TX queues - if nframes=1, then the status reflects
the completed transmission.
* however, for nframes > 1, then this is just a status reflecting what
the initial transmission did. The compressed BA (immediate or delayed)
may not have yet been received, so the actual frame status is in the
compressed BA updates.
Whilst here, I fiddled with debugging and formatting a bit.
There's also RTS attempts (what the atheros chips call "short retries")
which weren't being logged and they aren't yet being used in the rate
control statistics updates. For now, at least log them.
TODO:
* This still isn't 100% correct! So I have to tinker with this some more.
(The failures aren't always failures..)
* Extend the rate control API in net80211 so it can take both short and
long retry counts.
Tested:
* Intel 5100, STA mode
The (eventual) intention is to create MIB counters for transmitted
frame completion to count how many packets with each status are
transmitted.
Note the difference between A-MPDU and non A-MPDU status.

an entry in the xref list if one doesn't already exist for the given handle.
On a system that uses phandle properties, the init-time scan of the tree
which builds the xref list will pre-create entries for every xref handle
that exists in the data. On systems where the xref and node handles are
synonymous there is no phandle property in referenced nodes, and the xref
list will initialize to an empty state. In the latter case, we still need
to be able to associate a device_t with an xref handle, so we create list
entries on the fly as needed. Since the node and xref handles are
synonymous, we have all the info needed to create a list entry at device
registration time.
The downside to this change is that it basically allows on the fly creation
of xref handles as synonyms of node handles, and the association of a
device_t with them. Whether this is a bug or a feature is in the eye of
the beholder, I guess.
resume that is a superset of a pcb. Move the FPU state out of the pcb and
into this new structure. As part of this, move the FPU resume code on
amd64 into a C function. This allows resumectx() to still operate only on
a pcb and more closely mirrors the i386 code.

PCI IDs into quirks, which mostly fit (though you'd get no argument
from me that AHCI_Q_SATA1_UNIT0 is oddly specific). Set these quirks
in the PCI attachment. Make some shared functions public so that PCI
and possibly other bus attachments can use them.
The split isn't perfect yet, but it is functional. The split will be
perfected as other bus attachments for AHCI are written.
