Add support for managing Shingled Magnetic Recording (SMR) drives.
This change includes support for SCSI SMR drives (which conform to the Zoned Block Commands or ZBC spec) and ATA SMR drives (which conform to the Zoned ATA Command Set or ZAC spec) behind SAS expanders.
This includes full management support through the GEOM BIO interface, and through a new userland utility, zonectl(8), and through camcontrol(8).
This is now ready for filesystems to use to detect and manage zoned drives. (There is no work in progress that I know of to use this for ZFS or UFS, if anyone is interested, let me know and I may have some suggestions.)
Also, improve ATA command passthrough and dispatch support, both via ATA and ATA passthrough over SCSI.
Also, add support to camcontrol(8) for the ATA Extended Power Conditions feature set. You can now manage ATA device power states, and set various idle time thresholds for a drive to enter lower power states.
Note that this change cannot be MFCed in full, because it depends on changes to the struct bio API that break compatilibity. In order to avoid breaking the stable API, only changes that don't touch or depend on the struct bio changes can be merged. For example, the camcontrol(8) changes don't depend on the new bio API, but zonectl(8) and the probe changes to the da(4) and ada(4) drivers do depend on it.
Also note that the SMR changes have not yet been tested with an actual SCSI ZBC device, or a SCSI to ATA translation layer (SAT) that supports ZBC to ZAC translation. I have not yet gotten a suitable drive or SAT layer, so any testing help would be appreciated. These changes have been tested with Seagate Host Aware SATA drives attached to both SAS and SATA controllers. Also, I do not have any SATA Host Managed devices, and I suspect that it may take additional (hopefully minor) changes to support them.
Thanks to Seagate for supplying the test hardware and answering questions.
sbin/camcontrol/Makefile: Add epc.c and zone.c.
sbin/camcontrol/camcontrol.8: Document the zone and epc subcommands.
sbin/camcontrol/camcontrol.c: Add the zone and epc subcommands.
Add auxiliary register support to build_ata_cmd(). Make sure to set the CAM_ATAIO_NEEDRESULT, CAM_ATAIO_DMA, and CAM_ATAIO_FPDMA flags as appropriate for ATA commands.
Add a new get_ata_status() function to parse ATA result from SCSI sense descriptors (for ATA passthrough over SCSI) and ATA I/O requests.
sbin/camcontrol/camcontrol.h: Update the build_ata_cmd() prototype
Add get_ata_status(), zone(), and epc().
sbin/camcontrol/epc.c: Support for ATA Extended Power Conditions features. This includes support for all features documented in the ACS-4 Revision 12 specification from t13.org (dated February 18, 2016).
The EPC feature set allows putting a drive into a power power mode immediately, or setting timeouts so that the drive will automatically enter progressively lower power states after various idle times.
sbin/camcontrol/fwdownload.c: Update the firmware download code for the new build_ata_cmd() arguments.
sbin/camcontrol/zone.c: Implement support for Shingled Magnetic Recording (SMR) drives via SCSI Zoned Block Commands (ZBC) and ATA Zoned Device ATA Command Set (ZAC).
These specs were developed in concert, and are functionally identical. The primary differences are due to SCSI and ATA differences. (SCSI is big endian, ATA is little endian, for example.)
This includes support for all commands defined in the ZBC and ZAC specs.
sys/cam/ata/ata_all.c: Decode a number of additional ATA command names in ata_op_string().
Add a new CCB building function, ata_read_log().
Add ata_zac_mgmt_in() and ata_zac_mgmt_out() CCB building functions. These support both DMA and NCQ encapsulation.
sys/cam/ata/ata_all.h: Add prototypes for ata_read_log(), ata_zac_mgmt_out(), and ata_zac_mgmt_in().
sys/cam/ata/ata_da.c: Revamp the ada(4) driver to support zoned devices.
Add four new probe states to gather information needed for zone support.
Add a new adasetflags() function to avoid duplication of large blocks of flag setting between the async handler and register functions.
Add new sysctl variables that describe zone support and paramters.
Add support for the new BIO_ZONE bio, and all of its subcommands: DISK_ZONE_OPEN, DISK_ZONE_CLOSE, DISK_ZONE_FINISH, DISK_ZONE_RWP, DISK_ZONE_REPORT_ZONES, and DISK_ZONE_GET_PARAMS.
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_all.c: Add command descriptions for the ZBC IN/OUT commands.
Add descriptions for ZBC Host Managed devices.
Add a new function, scsi_ata_pass() to do ATA passthrough over SCSI. This will eventually replace scsi_ata_pass_16() -- it can create the 12, 16, and 32-byte variants of the ATA PASS-THROUGH command, and supports setting all of the registers defined as of SAT-4, Revision 5 (March 11, 2016).
Change scsi_ata_identify() to use scsi_ata_pass() instead of scsi_ata_pass_16().
Add a new scsi_ata_read_log() function to facilitate reading ATA logs via SCSI.
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_all.h: Add the new ATA PASS-THROUGH(32) command CDB. Add extended and variable CDB opcodes.
Add Zoned Block Device Characteristics VPD page.
Add ATA Return SCSI sense descriptor.
Add prototypes for scsi_ata_read_log() and scsi_ata_pass().
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_da.c: Revamp the da(4) driver to support zoned devices.
Add five new probe states, four of which are needed for ATA devices.
Add five new sysctl variables that describe zone support and parameters.
The da(4) driver supports SCSI ZBC devices, as well as ATA ZAC devices when they are attached via a SCSI to ATA Translation (SAT) layer. Since ZBC -> ZAC translation is a new feature in the T10 SAT-4 spec, most SATA drives will be supported via ATA commands sent via the SCSI ATA PASS-THROUGH command. The da(4) driver will prefer the ZBC interface, if it is available, for performance reasons, but will use the ATA PASS-THROUGH interface to the ZAC command set if the SAT layer doesn't support translation yet. As I mentioned above, ZBC command support is untested.
Add support for the new BIO_ZONE bio, and all of its subcommands: DISK_ZONE_OPEN, DISK_ZONE_CLOSE, DISK_ZONE_FINISH, DISK_ZONE_RWP, DISK_ZONE_REPORT_ZONES, and DISK_ZONE_GET_PARAMS.
Add scsi_zbc_in() and scsi_zbc_out() CCB building functions.
Add scsi_ata_zac_mgmt_out() and scsi_ata_zac_mgmt_in() CCB/CDB building functions. Note that these have return values, unlike almost all other CCB building functions in CAM. The reason is that they can fail, depending upon the particular combination of input parameters. The primary failure case is if the user wants NCQ, but fails to specify additional CDB storage. NCQ requires using the 32-byte version of the SCSI ATA PASS-THROUGH command, and the current CAM CDB size is 16 bytes.
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_da.h: Add ZBC IN and ZBC OUT CDBs and opcodes.
Add SCSI Report Zones data structures.
Add scsi_zbc_in(), scsi_zbc_out(), scsi_ata_zac_mgmt_out(), and scsi_ata_zac_mgmt_in() prototypes.
sys/dev/ahci/ahci.c: Fix SEND / RECEIVE FPDMA QUEUED in the ahci(4) driver.
ahci_setup_fis() previously set the top bits of the sector count register in the FIS to 0 for FPDMA commands. This is okay for read and write, because the PRIO field is in the only thing in those bits, and we don't implement that further up the stack.
But, for SEND and RECEIVE FPDMA QUEUED, the subcommand is in that byte, so it needs to be transmitted to the drive.
In ahci_setup_fis(), always set the the top 8 bits of the sector count register. We need it in both the standard and NCQ / FPDMA cases.
sys/geom/eli/g_eli.c: Pass BIO_ZONE commands through the GELI class.
sys/geom/geom.h: Add g_io_zonecmd() prototype.
sys/geom/geom_dev.c: Add new DIOCZONECMD ioctl, which allows sending zone commands to disks.
sys/geom/geom_disk.c: Add support for BIO_ZONE commands.
sys/geom/geom_disk.h: Add a new flag, DISKFLAG_CANZONE, that indicates that a given GEOM disk client can handle BIO_ZONE commands.
sys/geom/geom_io.c: Add a new function, g_io_zonecmd(), that handles execution of BIO_ZONE commands.
Add permissions check for BIO_ZONE commands.
Add command decoding for BIO_ZONE commands.
sys/geom/geom_subr.c: Add DDB command decoding for BIO_ZONE commands.
sys/kern/subr_devstat.c: Record statistics for REPORT ZONES commands. Note that the number of bytes transferred for REPORT ZONES won't quite match what is received from the harware. This is because we're necessarily counting bytes coming from the da(4) / ada(4) drivers, which are using the disk_zone.h interface to communicate up the stack. The structure sizes it uses are slightly different than the SCSI and ATA structure sizes.
sys/sys/ata.h: Add many bit and structure definitions for ZAC, NCQ, and EPC command support.
sys/sys/bio.h: Convert the bio_cmd field to a straight enumeration. This will yield more space for additional commands in the future. After change r297955 and other related changes, this is now possible. Converting to an enumeration will also prevent use as a bitmask in the future.
sys/sys/disk.h: Define the DIOCZONECMD ioctl.
sys/sys/disk_zone.h: Add a new API for managing zoned disks. This is very close to the SCSI ZBC and ATA ZAC standards, but uses integers in native byte order instead of big endian (SCSI) or little endian (ATA) byte arrays.
This is intended to offer to the complete feature set of the ZBC and ZAC disk management without requiring the application developer to include SCSI or ATA headers. We also use one set of headers for ioctl consumers and kernel bio-level consumers.
sys/sys/param.h: Bump __FreeBSD_version for sys/bio.h command changes, and inclusion of SMR support.
usr.sbin/Makefile: Add the zonectl utility.
usr.sbin/diskinfo/diskinfo.c Add disk zoning capability to the 'diskinfo -v' output.
usr.sbin/zonectl/Makefile: Add zonectl makefile.
usr.sbin/zonectl/zonectl.8 zonectl(8) man page.
usr.sbin/zonectl/zonectl.c The zonectl(8) utility. This allows managing SCSI or ATA zoned disks via the disk_zone.h API. You can report zones, reset write pointers, get parameters, etc.

Create an API to reset a struct bio (g_reset_bio). This is mandatory for all struct bio you get back from g_{new,alloc}_bio. Temporary bios that you create on the stack or elsewhere should use this before first use of the bio, and between uses of the bio. At the moment, it is nothing more than a wrapper around bzero, but that may change in the future. The wrapper also removes one place where we encode the size of struct bio in the KBI.

Add asynchronous command support to the pass(4) driver, and the new camdd(8) utility.
CCBs may be queued to the driver via the new CAMIOQUEUE ioctl, and completed CCBs may be retrieved via the CAMIOGET ioctl. User processes can use poll(2) or kevent(2) to get notification when I/O has completed.
While the existing CAMIOCOMMAND blocking ioctl interface only supports user virtual data pointers in a CCB (generally only one per CCB), the new CAMIOQUEUE ioctl supports user virtual and physical address pointers, as well as user virtual and physical scatter/gather lists. This allows user applications to have more flexibility in their data handling operations.
Kernel memory for data transferred via the queued interface is allocated from the zone allocator in MAXPHYS sized chunks, and user data is copied in and out. This is likely faster than the vmapbuf()/vunmapbuf() method used by the CAMIOCOMMAND ioctl in configurations with many processors (there are more TLB shootdowns caused by the mapping/unmapping operation) but may not be as fast as running with unmapped I/O.
The new memory handling model for user requests also allows applications to send CCBs with request sizes that are larger than MAXPHYS. The pass(4) driver now limits queued requests to the I/O size listed by the SIM driver in the maxio field in the Path Inquiry (XPT_PATH_INQ) CCB.
There are some things things would be good to add:
1. Come up with a way to do unmapped I/O on multiple buffers. Currently the unmapped I/O interface operates on a struct bio, which includes only one address and length. It would be nice to be able to send an unmapped scatter/gather list down to busdma. This would allow eliminating the copy we currently do for data.
2. Add an ioctl to list currently outstanding CCBs in the various queues.
3. Add an ioctl to cancel a request, or use the XPT_ABORT CCB to do that.
4. Test physical address support. Virtual pointers and scatter gather lists have been tested, but I have not yet tested physical addresses or scatter/gather lists.
5. Investigate multiple queue support. At the moment there is one queue of commands per pass(4) device. If multiple processes open the device, they will submit I/O into the same queue and get events for the same completions. This is probably the right model for most applications, but it is something that could be changed later on.
Also, add a new utility, camdd(8) that uses the asynchronous pass(4) driver interface.
This utility is intended to be a basic data transfer/copy utility, a simple benchmark utility, and an example of how to use the asynchronous pass(4) interface.
It can copy data to and from pass(4) devices using any target queue depth, starting offset and blocksize for the input and ouptut devices. It currently only supports SCSI devices, but could be easily extended to support ATA devices.
It can also copy data to and from regular files, block devices, tape devices, pipes, stdin, and stdout. It does not support queueing multiple commands to any of those targets, since it uses the standard read(2)/write(2)/writev(2)/readv(2) system calls.
The I/O is done by two threads, one for the reader and one for the writer. The reader thread sends completed read requests to the writer thread in strictly sequential order, even if they complete out of order. That could be modified later on for random I/O patterns or slightly out of order I/O.
camdd(8) uses kqueue(2)/kevent(2) to get I/O completion events from the pass(4) driver and also to send request notifications internally.
For pass(4) devcies, camdd(8) uses a single buffer (CAM_DATA_VADDR) per CAM CCB on the reading side, and a scatter/gather list (CAM_DATA_SG) on the writing side. In addition to testing both interfaces, this makes any potential reblocking of I/O easier. No data is copied between the reader and the writer, but rather the reader's buffers are split into multiple I/O requests or combined into a single I/O request depending on the input and output blocksize.
For the file I/O path, camdd(8) also uses a single buffer (read(2), write(2), pread(2) or pwrite(2)) on reads, and a scatter/gather list (readv(2), writev(2), preadv(2), pwritev(2)) on writes.
Things that would be nice to do for camdd(8) eventually:
1. Add support for I/O pattern generation. Patterns like all zeros, all ones, LBA-based patterns, random patterns, etc. Right Now you can always use /dev/zero, /dev/random, etc.
2. Add support for a "sink" mode, so we do only reads with no writes. Right now, you can use /dev/null.
3. Add support for automatic queue depth probing, so that we can figure out the right queue depth on the input and output side for maximum throughput. At the moment it defaults to 6.
4. Add support for SATA device passthrough I/O.
5. Add support for random LBAs and/or lengths on the input and output sides.
6. Track average per-I/O latency and busy time. The busy time and latency could also feed in to the automatic queue depth determination.
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_pass.h: Define two new ioctls, CAMIOQUEUE and CAMIOGET, that queue and fetch asynchronous CAM CCBs respectively.
Although these ioctls do not have a declared argument, they both take a union ccb pointer. If we declare a size here, the ioctl code in sys/kern/sys_generic.c will malloc and free a buffer for either the CCB or the CCB pointer (depending on how it is declared). Since we have to keep a copy of the CCB (which is fairly large) anyway, having the ioctl malloc and free a CCB for each call is wasteful.
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_pass.c: Add asynchronous CCB support.
Add two new ioctls, CAMIOQUEUE and CAMIOGET.
CAMIOQUEUE adds a CCB to the incoming queue. The CCB is executed immediately (and moved to the active queue) if it is an immediate CCB, but otherwise it will be executed in passstart() when a CCB is available from the transport layer.
When CCBs are completed (because they are immediate or passdone() if they are queued), they are put on the done queue.
If we get the final close on the device before all pending I/O is complete, all active I/O is moved to the abandoned queue and we increment the peripheral reference count so that the peripheral driver instance doesn't go away before all pending I/O is done.
The new passcreatezone() function is called on the first call to the CAMIOQUEUE ioctl on a given device to allocate the UMA zones for I/O requests and S/G list buffers. This may be good to move off to a taskqueue at some point. The new passmemsetup() function allocates memory and scatter/gather lists to hold the user's data, and copies in any data that needs to be written. For virtual pointers (CAM_DATA_VADDR), the kernel buffer is malloced from the new pass(4) driver malloc bucket. For virtual scatter/gather lists (CAM_DATA_SG), buffers are allocated from a new per-pass(9) UMA zone in MAXPHYS-sized chunks. Physical pointers are passed in unchanged. We have support for up to 16 scatter/gather segments (for the user and kernel S/G lists) in the default struct pass_io_req, so requests with longer S/G lists require an extra kernel malloc.
The new passcopysglist() function copies a user scatter/gather list to a kernel scatter/gather list. The number of elements in each list may be different, but (obviously) the amount of data stored has to be identical.
The new passmemdone() function copies data out for the CAM_DATA_VADDR and CAM_DATA_SG cases.
The new passiocleanup() function restores data pointers in user CCBs and frees memory.
Add new functions to support kqueue(2)/kevent(2):
passreadfilt() tells kevent whether or not the done queue is empty.
passkqfilter() adds a knote to our list.
passreadfiltdetach() removes a knote from our list.
Add a new function, passpoll(), for poll(2)/select(2) to use.
Add devstat(9) support for the queued CCB path.
sys/cam/ata/ata_da.c: Add support for the BIO_VLIST bio type.
sys/cam/cam_ccb.h: Add a new enumeration for the xflags field in the CCB header. (This doesn't change the CCB header, just adds an enumeration to use.)

Add a new function, _bus_dmamap_load_pages(), that will load a list of physical pages starting at an offset.

After the introduction of direct dispatch, the pacing code in g_down() broke in two ways. One, the pacing variable was accessed in multiple threads in an unsafe way. Two, since large numbers of I/O could come down from the buf layer at one time, large numbers of allocation failures could happen all at once, resulting in a huge pace value that would limit I/Os to 10 IOPS for minutes (or even hours) at a time. While a real solution to these problems requires substantial work (to go to a no-allocation after the first model, or to have some way to wait for more memory with some kind of reserve for pager and swapper requests), it is relatively easy to make this simplistic pacing less pathological.
Move to using a volatile variable with loads and stores. While this is a little racy, losing the race is safe: either you get memory and proceed, or you don't and queue. Second, sleep for 1ms (or one tick, whichever is larger) instead of 100ms. This removes the artificial 10 IOPS limit while still easing up on new I/Os during memory shortages. Remove tying the amount of time we do this to the number of failed requests and do it only as long as we keep failing requests.
Finally, to avoid needless recursion when memory is tight (start -> g_io_deliver() -> g_io_request() -> start -> ... until we use 1/2 the stack), don't do direct dispatch while pacing. This should be a rare event (not steady state) so the performance hit here is worth the extra safety of not starving g_down() with directly dispatched I/O.

Merge GEOM direct dispatch changes from the projects/camlock branch.
When safety requirements are met, it allows to avoid passing I/O requests to GEOM g_up/g_down thread, executing them directly in the caller context. That allows to avoid CPU bottlenecks in g_up/g_down threads, plus avoid several context switches per I/O.
The defined now safety requirements are: - caller should not hold any locks and should be reenterable; - callee should not depend on GEOM dual-threaded concurency semantics; - on the way down, if request is unmapped while callee doesn't support it, the context should be sleepable; - kernel thread stack usage should be below 50%.
To keep compatibility with GEOM classes not meeting above requirements new provider and consumer flags added: - G_CF_DIRECT_SEND -- consumer code meets caller requirements (request); - G_CF_DIRECT_RECEIVE -- consumer code meets callee requirements (done); - G_PF_DIRECT_SEND -- provider code meets caller requirements (done); - G_PF_DIRECT_RECEIVE -- provider code meets callee requirements (request). Capable GEOM class can set them, allowing direct dispatch in cases where it is safe. If any of requirements are not met, request is queued to g_up or g_down thread same as before.
Such GEOM classes were reviewed and updated to support direct dispatch: CONCAT, DEV, DISK, GATE, MD, MIRROR, MULTIPATH, NOP, PART, RAID, STRIPE, VFS, ZERO, ZFS::VDEV, ZFS::ZVOL, all classes based on g_slice KPI (LABEL, MAP, FLASHMAP, etc).
To declare direct completion capability disk(9) KPI got new flag equivalent to G_PF_DIRECT_SEND -- DISKFLAG_DIRECT_COMPLETION. da(4) and ada(4) disk drivers got it set now thanks to earlier CAM locking work.
This change more then twice increases peak block storage performance on systems with manu CPUs, together with earlier CAM locking changes reaching more then 1 million IOPS (512 byte raw reads from 16 SATA SSDs on 4 HBAs to 256 user-level threads).

- Add a general purpose resource allocator, vmem, from NetBSD. It was originally inspired by the Solaris vmem detailed in the proceedings of usenix 2001. The NetBSD version was heavily refactored for bugs and simplicity. - Use this resource allocator to allocate the buffer and transient maps. Buffer cache defrags are reduced by 25% when used by filesystems with mixed block sizes. Ultimately this may permit dynamic buffer cache sizing on low KVA machines.

Implement the concept of the unmapped VMIO buffers, i.e. buffers which do not map the b_pages pages into buffer_map KVA. The use of the unmapped buffers eliminate the need to perform TLB shootdown for mapping on the buffer creation and reuse, greatly reducing the amount of IPIs for shootdown on big-SMP machines and eliminating up to 25-30% of the system time on i/o intensive workloads.
The unmapped buffer should be explicitely requested by the GB_UNMAPPED flag by the consumer. For unmapped buffer, no KVA reservation is performed at all. The consumer might request unmapped buffer which does have a KVA reserve, to manually map it without recursing into buffer cache and blocking, with the GB_KVAALLOC flag.
When the mapped buffer is requested and unmapped buffer already exists, the cache performs an upgrade, possibly reusing the KVA reservation.
Unmapped buffer is translated into unmapped bio in g_vfs_strategy(). Unmapped bio carry a pointer to the vm_page_t array, offset and length instead of the data pointer. The provider which processes the bio should explicitely specify a readiness to accept unmapped bio, otherwise g_down geom thread performs the transient upgrade of the bio request by mapping the pages into the new bio_transient_map KVA submap.
The bio_transient_map submap claims up to 10% of the buffer map, and the total buffer_map + bio_transient_map KVA usage stays the same. Still, it could be manually tuned by kern.bio_transient_maxcnt tunable, in the units of the transient mappings. Eventually, the bio_transient_map could be removed after all geom classes and drivers can accept unmapped i/o requests.
Unmapped support can be turned off by the vfs.unmapped_buf_allowed tunable, disabling which makes the buffer (or cluster) creation requests to ignore GB_UNMAPPED and GB_KVAALLOC flags. Unmapped buffers are only enabled by default on the architectures where pmap_copy_page() was implemented and tested.
In the rework, filesystem metadata is not the subject to maxbufspace limit anymore. Since the metadata buffers are always mapped, the buffers still have to fit into the buffer map, which provides a reasonable (but practically unreachable) upper bound on it. The non-metadata buffer allocations, both mapped and unmapped, is accounted against maxbufspace, as before. Effectively, this means that the maxbufspace is forced on mapped and unmapped buffers separately. The pre-patch bufspace limiting code did not worked, because buffer_map fragmentation does not allow the limit to be reached.
By Jeff Roberson request, the getnewbuf() function was split into smaller single-purpose functions.

Implement media change notification for DA and CD removable media devices. It includes three parts: 1) Modifications to CAM to detect media media changes and report them to disk(9) layer. For modern SATA (and potentially UAS) devices it utilizes Asynchronous Notification mechanism to receive events from hardware. Active polling with TEST UNIT READY commands with 3 seconds period is used for incapable hardware. After that both CD and DA drivers work the same way, detecting two conditions: "NOT READY: Medium not present" after medium was detected previously, and "UNIT ATTENTION: Not ready to ready change, medium may have changed". First one reported to disk(9) as media removal, second as media insert/change. To reliably receive second event new AC_UNIT_ATTENTION async added to make UAs broadcasted to all periphs by generic error handling code in cam_periph_error(). 2) Modifications to GEOM core to handle media remove and change events. Media removal handled by spoiling all consumers attached to the provider. Media change event also schedules provider retaste after spoiling to probe new media. New flag G_CF_ORPHAN was added to consumers to reflect that consumer is in process of destruction. It allows retaste to create new geom instance of the same class, while previous one is still dying. 3) Modifications to some GEOM classes: DEV -- to report media change events to devd; VFS -- to handle spoiling same as orphan to prevent accessing replaced media. PART class already handles spoiling alike to orphan.

Correct bioq_disksort so that bioq_insert_tail() offers barrier semantic. Add the BIO_ORDERED flag for struct bio and update bio clients to use it.
The barrier semantics of bioq_insert_tail() were broken in two ways:
o In bioq_disksort(), an added bio could be inserted at the head of the queue, even when a barrier was present, if the sort key for the new entry was less than that of the last queued barrier bio.
o The last_offset used to generate the sort key for newly queued bios did not stay at the position of the barrier until either the barrier was de-queued, or a new barrier (which updates last_offset) was queued. When a barrier is in effect, we know that the disk will pass through the barrier position just before the "blocked bios" are released, so using the barrier's offset for last_offset is the optimal choice.
sys/geom/sched/subr_disk.c: sys/kern/subr_disk.c: o Update last_offset in bioq_insert_tail().
o Only update last_offset in bioq_remove() if the removed bio is at the head of the queue (typically due to a call via bioq_takefirst()) and no barrier is active.
o In bioq_disksort(), if we have a barrier (insert_point is non-NULL), set prev to the barrier and cur to it's next element. Now that last_offset is kept at the barrier position, this change isn't strictly necessary, but since we have to take a decision branch anyway, it does avoid one, no-op, loop iteration in the while loop that immediately follows.
o In bioq_disksort(), bypass the normal sort for bios with the BIO_ORDERED attribute and instead insert them into the queue with bioq_insert_tail(). bioq_insert_tail() not only gives the desired command order during insertion, but also provides barrier semantics so that commands disksorted in the future cannot pass the just enqueued transaction.
sys/sys/bio.h: Add BIO_ORDERED as bit 4 of the bio_flags field in struct bio.
sys/cam/ata/ata_da.c: sys/cam/scsi/scsi_da.c Use an ordered command for SCSI/ATA-NCQ commands issued in response to bios with the BIO_ORDERED flag set.
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_da.c Use an ordered tag when issuing a synchronize cache command.

Implement a bio-taskqueue to reduce number of context switches in disk I/O processing.
The intent is that the disk driver in its hardware interrupt routine will simply schedule the bio on the task queue with a routine to finish off whatever needs done.
The g_up thread will then schedule this routine, the likely outcome of which is a biodone() which queues the bio on g_up's regular queue where it will be picked up and processed.
Compared to the using the regular taskqueue, this saves one contextswitch.
Change our scheduling of the g_up and g_down queues to be water-tight, at the cost of breaking the userland regression test-shims.

malloc(9) with M_NOWAIT seems to return NULL a lot more than I would have expected under -current. This is a problem for GEOM because the up/down threads cannot sleep waiting for memory to become free. The reason they cannot sleep is that paging things out to disk may be the only way we can clear up some RAM. Nice catch-22 there.
Implement a rudimentary ENOMEM recovery strategy: If an I/O request fails with an error code of ENOMEM, schedule it for a retry, and tell the down-thread to sleep hz/10 to get other parts of the system a chance to free up some memory, in particular the up-path in GEOM.
All caches should probably start to monitor malloc(9) failures using the new malloc_last_fail() function, and release when it indicates congestion.

Eliminate some thread pointers which do not make sense anymore.
Split private parts of geom.h into geom_int.h. The latter should never be included in class implemtations.

First commit of the GEOM subsystem to make it easier for people to test and play with this.
This is not yet production quality and should be run only on dedicated test boxes.
For people who want to develop transformations for GEOM there exist a set of shims to run geom in userland (ask phk@freebsd.org).
Reports of all kinds to: phk@freebsd.org Please include in report: dmesg sysctl debug.geomdot sysctl debug.geomconf
Known significant limitations: no kernel dump facility. ioctls severely restricted.
