# 331722 29-Mar-2018 eadler

Revert r330897:

This was intended to be a non-functional change. It wasn't. The commit
message was thus wrong. In addition it broke arm, and merged crypto
related code.

Revert with prejudice.

This revert skips files touched in r316370 since that commit was since
MFCed. This revert also skips files that require $FreeBSD$ property
changes.

Thank you to those who helped me get out of this mess including but not
limited to gonzo, kevans, rgrimes.

Pull in r267961 and r267973 again. Fix for issues reported will follow.


# 267985 27-Jun-2014 gjb

Revert r267961, r267973:

These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,
such as:

1) no output from sysctl(8)
2) erroneously returning ENOMEM with tools like truss(1)
or uname(1)
truss: can not get etype: Cannot allocate memory


# 267961 27-Jun-2014 hselasky

Extend the meaning of the CTLFLAG_TUN flag to automatically check if
there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.

Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

# 267446 13-Jun-2014 jhb

Add missing calls to bus_dmamap_unload() when freeing static DMA
allocations.

Reviewed by: scottl


# 254263 12-Aug-2013 scottl

Update PCI drivers to no longer look at the MEMIO-enabled bit in the PCI
command register. The lazy BAR allocation code in FreeBSD sometimes
disables this bit when it detects a range conflict, and will re-enable
it on demand when a driver allocates the BAR. Thus, the bit is no longer
a reliable indication of capability, and should not be checked. This
results in the elimination of a lot of code from drivers, and also gives
the opportunity to simplify a lot of drivers to use a helper API to set
the busmaster enable bit.

This changes fixes some recent reports of disk controllers and their
associated drives/enclosures disappearing during boot.

# 157586 08-Apr-2006 scottl

After further review and discussion, partially revert the previous commit.
The real problem was that ioctl handlers needed to call amr_wait_command()

prevents bounce buffer corruption that could arise from amr_start() being
called without the proper locks held.

# 153409 14-Dec-2005 scottl

Mega update to the LSI MegaRAID driver:

1. Implement a large set of ioctl shims so that the Linux management apps
from LSI will work. This includes infrastructure to support adding, deleting
and rescanning arrays at runtime. This is based on work from Doug Ambrosko,
heavily augmented by LSI and Yahoo.

2. Implement full 64-bit DMA support. Systems with more than 4GB of RAM
can now operate without the cost of bounce buffers. Cards that cannot do
64-bit DMA will automatically revert to using bounce buffers. This option
can be forced off by setting the 'hw.amr.force_sg32" tunable in the loader.
It should only be turned off for debugging purposes. This work was sponsored
by Yahoo.

3. Streamline the command delivery and interrupt handler paths after
much discussion with Dell and LSI. The logic now closely matches the
intended design, making it both more robust and much faster. Certain
i/o failures under heavy load should be fixed with this.

4. Optimize the locking. In the interrupt handler, the card can be checked
for completed commands without any locks held, due to the handler being
implicitely serialized and there being no need to look at any shared data.
Only grab the lock to return the command structure to the free pool. A
small optimization can still be made to collect all of the completions
together and then free them together under a single lock.

Items 3 and 4 significantly increase the performance of the driver. On an
LSI 320-2X card, transactions per second went from 13,000 to 31,000 in my
testing with these changes. However, these changes are still fairly
experimental and shouldn't be merged to 6.x until there is more testing.

Thanks to Doug Ambrosko, LSI, Dell, and Yahoo for contributing towards
this.

Fix a number of bugs and significantly alter the command execution path to

driver to work properly and reliably with more than 4GB of RAM. Of the
three data paths that exist in the driver, (block, CAM, ioctl), the ioctl
path has not been well tested with these changes due to difficulty with
finding an application that uses it that actually works.

Mega busdma API commit.

Add two new arguments to bus_dma_tag_create(): lockfunc and lockfuncarg.
Lockfunc allows a driver to provide a function for managing its locking
semantics while using busdma. At the moment, this is used for the
asynchronous busdma_swi and callback mechanism. Two lockfunc implementations
are provided: busdma_lock_mutex() performs standard mutex operations on the
mutex that is specified from lockfuncarg. dftl_lock() is a panic
implementation and is defaulted to when NULL, NULL are passed to
bus_dma_tag_create(). The only time that NULL, NULL should ever be used is
when the driver ensures that bus_dmamap_load() will not be deferred.
Drivers that do not provide their own locking can pass
busdma_lock_mutex,&Giant args in order to preserve the former behaviour.

sparc64 and powerpc do not provide real busdma_swi functions, so this is
largely a noop on those platforms. The busdma_swi on is64 is not properly
locked yet, so warnings will be emitted on this platform when busdma
callback deferrals happen.

If anyone gets panics or warnings from dflt_lock() being called, please
let me know right away.

that some controllers report more than they can really handle,

- Don't use 'wait' mode for anything where the controller might not
be able to generate interrupts. (Keep the 'wait' mode though sa it
will become useful when we start taking userspace commands.
