- Copy stable/10 (r259064) to releng/10.0 as part of the
10.0-RELEASE cycle.
- Update __FreeBSD_version [1]
- Set branch name to -RC1

[1] 10.0-CURRENT __FreeBSD_version value ended at '55', so
start releng/10.0 at '100' so the branch is started with
a value ending in zero.

Remove zero-copy sockets code. It only worked for anonymous memory,
and the equivalent functionality is now provided by sendfile(2) over
posix shared memory filedescriptor.

Remove the cow member of struct vm_page, and rearrange the remaining
members. While there, make hold_count unsigned.

The if_ti Tigon I/II driver has moved to /sys/dev/ti

Remove bridge(4) from the tree. if_bridge(4) is a full functional
replacement and has additional features which make it superior.

At long last, commit the zero copy sockets code.

MAKEDEV: Add MAKEDEV glue for the ti(4) device nodes.

ti.4: Update the ti(4) man page to include information on the
TI_JUMBO_HDRSPLIT and TI_PRIVATE_JUMBOS kernel options,
and also include information about the new character
device interface and the associated ioctls.

man9/Makefile: Add jumbo.9 and zero_copy.9 man pages and associated
links.

jumbo.9: New man page describing the jumbo buffer allocator
interface and operation.

zero_copy.9: New man page describing the general characteristics of
the zero copy send and receive code, and what an
application author should do to take advantage of the
zero copy functionality.

NOTES: Add entries for ZERO_COPY_SOCKETS, TI_PRIVATE_JUMBOS,
TI_JUMBO_HDRSPLIT, MSIZE, and MCLSHIFT.

conf/files: Add uipc_jumbo.c and uipc_cow.c.

conf/options: Add the 5 options mentioned above.

kern_subr.c: Receive side zero copy implementation. This takes
"disposable" pages attached to an mbuf, gives them to
a user process, and then recycles the user's page.
This is only active when ZERO_COPY_SOCKETS is turned on
and the kern.ipc.zero_copy.receive sysctl variable is
set to 1.

uipc_cow.c: Send side zero copy functions. Takes a page written
by the user and maps it copy on write and assigns it
kernel virtual address space. Removes copy on write
mapping once the buffer has been freed by the network
stack.

uipc_jumbo.c: Jumbo disposable page allocator code. This allocates
(optionally) disposable pages for network drivers that
want to give the user the option of doing zero copy
receive.

uipc_socket.c: Add kern.ipc.zero_copy.{send,receive} sysctls that are
enabled if ZERO_COPY_SOCKETS is turned on.

Add zero copy send support to sosend() -- pages get
mapped into the kernel instead of getting copied if
they meet size and alignment restrictions.

uipc_syscalls.c:Un-staticize some of the sf* functions so that they
can be used elsewhere. (uipc_cow.c)

if_media.c: In the SIOCGIFMEDIA ioctl in ifmedia_ioctl(), avoid
calling malloc() with M_WAITOK. Return an error if
the M_NOWAIT malloc fails.

The ti(4) driver and the wi(4) driver, at least, call
this with a mutex held. This causes witness warnings
for 'ifconfig -a' with a wi(4) or ti(4) board in the
system. (I've only verified for ti(4)).

ip_output.c: Fragment large datagrams so that each segment contains
a multiple of PAGE_SIZE amount of data plus headers.
This allows the receiver to potentially do page
flipping on receives.

if_ti.c: Add zero copy receive support to the ti(4) driver. If
TI_PRIVATE_JUMBOS is not defined, it now uses the
jumbo(9) buffer allocator for jumbo receive buffers.

Add a new character device interface for the ti(4)
driver for the new debugging interface. This allows
(a patched version of) gdb to talk to the Tigon board
and debug the firmware. There are also a few additional
debugging ioctls available through this interface.

Add header splitting support to the ti(4) driver.

Tweak some of the default interrupt coalescing
parameters to more useful defaults.

Add hooks for supporting transmit flow control, but
leave it turned off with a comment describing why it
is turned off.

if_tireg.h: Change the firmware rev to 12.4.11, since we're really
at 12.4.11 plus fixes from 12.4.13.

Add defines needed for debugging.

Remove the ti_stats structure, it is now defined in
sys/tiio.h.

ti_fw.h: 12.4.11 firmware.

ti_fw2.h: 12.4.11 firmware, plus selected fixes from 12.4.13,
and my header splitting patches. Revision 12.4.13
doesn't handle 10/100 negotiation properly. (This
firmware is the same as what was in the tree previously,
with the addition of header splitting support.)

sys/jumbo.h: Jumbo buffer allocator interface.

sys/mbuf.h: Add a new external mbuf type, EXT_DISPOSABLE, to
indicate that the payload buffer can be thrown away /
flipped to a userland process.

socketvar.h: Add prototype for socow_setup.

tiio.h: ioctl interface to the character portion of the ti(4)
driver, plus associated structure/type definitions.

uio.h: Change prototype for uiomoveco() so that we'll know
whether the source page is disposable.

ufs_readwrite.c:Update for new prototype of uiomoveco().

vm_fault.c: In vm_fault(), check to see whether we need to do a page
based copy on write fault.

vm_object.c: Add a new function, vm_object_allocate_wait(). This
does the same thing that vm_object allocate does, except
that it gives the caller the opportunity to specify whether
it should wait on the uma_zalloc() of the object structre.

This allows vm objects to be allocated while holding a
mutex. (Without generating WITNESS warnings.)

vm_object_allocate() is implemented as a call to
vm_object_allocate_wait() with the malloc flag set to
M_WAITOK.

vm_object.h: Add prototype for vm_object_allocate_wait().

vm_page.c: Add page-based copy on write setup, clear and fault
routines.

vm_page.h: Add page based COW function prototypes and variable in
the vm_page structure.

Many thanks to Drew Gallatin, who wrote the zero copy send and receive
code, and to all the other folks who have tested and reviewed this code
over the years.

vlan.h is obsolete, don't create it anymore.


70711 06-Jan-2001 obrien

Use a consistent style and one much closer to the rest of /usr/src


60966 27-May-2000 peter

Use .include <bsd.kmod.mk> to get to ../../*/conf/kmod.mk instead of
encoding the relative path.


59951 04-May-2000 peter

Pull in sys/conf/kmod.mk, rather than /usr/share/mk/bsd.kmod.mk.
This means that the kernel can be totally self contained now and is not
dependent on the last buildworld to update /usr/share/mk. This might
also make it easier to build 5.x kernels on 4.0 boxes etc, assuming
gensetdefs and config(8) are updated.


56735 28-Jan-2000 bde

Add ${DEBUG_FLAGS} to CFLAGS in bsd.kmod.mk, not in scattered module
makefiles. Bad examples in fxp/Makefile keep getting copied to new
makefiles.


53846 28-Nov-1999 bde

Removed special rules for building and cleaning device interface files
and empty options files. The rules are now generated automatically in
bsd.kmod.mk. Cleaned up related things ($S and ${CLEANFILES}).


51712 27-Sep-1999 peter

Zap some unused echo "#define NFOO 1" > foo.h style defunct stuff.


51704 27-Sep-1999 peter

Don't generate 'bpf.h' since it's not used.


51443 20-Sep-1999 obrien

Change the name of the installed KLM to contain a leading "if_".
Except for miibus which is now installed as miibus.ko.

Convert the VIA Rhine driver to newbus and set it up to be compiled as
a module. Also modified the code to work on FreeBSD/alpha and added
device vr0 to the alpha GENERIC config.

While I was in the neighborhood, I noticed that I was still using
#define NFPX 1 in all of the Makefiles that I'd copied from the fxp
module. I don't really use #define Nfoo X so it didn't matter, but
I decided to customize this correctly anyway.


49016 23-Jul-1999 wpaul

Create module directories for the xl, ti, tl and sk drivers and add
them to the Makefile so that modules will be generated for /modules.
