than removing the network interfaces first. This change is rather larger
and convoluted as the ordering requirements cannot be separated.
Move the pfil(9) framework to SI_SUB_PROTO_PFIL, move Firewalls and
related modules to their own SI_SUB_PROTO_FIREWALL.
Move initialization of "physical" interfaces to SI_SUB_DRIVERS,
move virtual (cloned) interfaces to SI_SUB_PSEUDO.
Move Multicast to SI_SUB_PROTO_MC.
Re-work parts of multicast initialisation and teardown, not taking the
huge amount of memory into account if used as a module yet.
For interface teardown we try to do as many of them as we can on
SI_SUB_INIT_IF, but for some this makes no sense, e.g., when tunnelling
over a higher layer protocol such as IP. In that case the interface
has to go along (or before) the higher layer protocol is shutdown.
Kernel hhooks need to go last on teardown as they may be used at various
higher layers and we cannot remove them before we cleaned up the higher
layers.
For interface teardown there are multiple paths:
(a) a cloned interface is destroyed (inside a VIMAGE or in the base system),
(b) any interface is moved from a virtual network stack to a different
network stack ("vmove"), or (c) a virtual network stack is being shut down.
All code paths go through if_detach_internal() where we, depending on the
vmove flag or the vnet state, make a decision on how much to shut down;
in case we are destroying a VNET the individual protocol layers will
cleanup their own parts thus we cannot do so again for each interface as
we end up with, e.g., double-frees, destroying locks twice or acquiring
already destroyed locks.
When calling into protocol cleanups we equally have to tell them
whether they need to detach upper layer protocols ("ulp") or not
(e.g., in6_ifdetach()).
Provide or enahnce helper functions to do proper cleanup at a protocol
rather than at an interface level.

Among other things, this introduces the idea of DBA-gated queues that
aren't the CABQ. The TDMA support requires this.
Tested:
* AR9580 (hostap mode)
* AR9380 (sta mode)
Approved by: re (gjb)
This is in preparation for some other TDMA fixes which will hopefully
end with having working TDMA.
But, it does avoid lots of read/modify/writes in the txq setup path.
* Allow readyTime to just be programmed in directly
* The beacon interval and all of the beacon timing sysctl's are in TU,
not TSF. So, we were doing the wrong math on the CAB programming
in the first place.
This seems to make 5G work better.
It doesn't fix powersave handling though, that still sees the PHY get
stuck during initial calibration and everything goes pear shaped.
I'll look into that later.
Tested:
* QCAFN222 NIC, STA mode, 5GHz
Obtained from: Linux ath9k
Turns out I wasn't even initialising or programming a lot of stuff
for the AR9462 2.1 chip. Oops.
This mostly gets it working. powersave scan results in some pretty
hilarious NFcal hangs and I don't see beacons reliably.
There are still some xlna gain tables missing that ath9k has; I'll
follow up with some fixes and then see if the QCAFN222 NIC I have
tests this path.
Tested:
* QCAFN222 NIC, STA mode, 2GHz and 5GHz
These are apparently conditional on there being a shared PA/LNA, which
at least on AR9462/QCA9535 devices I have isn't a thing.
I'm .. not yet sure which devices it /is/ a thing, so I'll come back
to that.
Tested:
* QCA9565 STA + bluetooth
Obtained from: Linux ath9k
* Add extra debugging - the weights debugging is really useful to ensure
things are programmed into the wlan coexistence table. The weights are
what traffic priority each of the various modes get (tx, tx-high-priority,
rx-beacon, etc) if they're all zero, things work very poorly.
* Add in coex init routines from ath9k for AR9462 and QCA9565 1ANT and 2ANT.
This control things like beacon stomping, ACK handling, antennas, PA/LNA
shared, etc.
* Some ancillary bits.
TODO:
* There's some conditional stuff around MCI_ANT_ARCH_PA_LNA_SHARED() in ath9k
which doesn't always enable force-on LNA. That'll have to be examined
and merged in as appropriate.
Obtained from: linux ath9k
Notably, this also sets AR_BTCOEX_WL_LNADIV to FORCE_ON, so LNA diversity
is always enabled and under control of the wifi chip.
Tested:
* QCA9565, STA + bluetooth mode
Obtained from: Linux ath9k
This configures the LNA antenna diversity control, which should be on
if wlan owns the LNA for bluetooth coexistence. Otherwise, make sure
it's off.
I think this is eventually intended to allow 1-antenna bluetooth +
wifi setups for QCA9565, but I'm not sure where that's actually configured
in ath9k.
Obtained from: Linux ath9k
It turns out that the srev checks can't be done in the early attach
in ar9300_freebsd.c, because the poweron and srev check hasn't yet
happened.
So:
* Re-add the MCI overrides in attach
* Add QCA9565 (Aphrodite) check for the LNA diversity stuff.
Tested:
* QCA9565, STA mode + bluetooth

We're currently seeing how hard it would be to run CloudABI binaries on
operating systems cannot be modified easily (Windows, Mac OS X). The
idea is that we want to just run them without any sandboxing. Now
that CloudABI executables are PIE, this is already a bit easier, but TLS
is still problematic:
- CloudABI executables want to write to the %fs, which typically
requires extra system calls by the emulator every time it needs to
switch between CloudABI's and its own TLS.
- If CloudABI executables overwrite the %fs base unconditionally, it
also becomes harder for the emulator to store a backup of the old
value of %fs. To solve this, let's no longer overwrite %fs, but just
%fs:0.
As CloudABI's C library does not use a TCB, this space can now be used
by an emulator to keep track of its internal state. The executable can
now safely overwrite %fs:0, as long as it makes sure that the TCB is
copied over to the new TLS area.
Ensure that there is an initial TLS area set up when the process starts,
only containing a bogus TCB. We don't really care about its contents on
FreeBSD.

Some time ago I made a change to merge together the memory scope
definitions used by mmap (MAP_{PRIVATE,SHARED}) and lock objects
(PTHREAD_PROCESS_{PRIVATE,SHARED}). Though that sounded pretty smart
back then, it's backfiring. In the case of mmap it's used with other
flags in a bitmask, but for locking it's an enumeration. As our plan is
to automatically generate bindings for other languages, that looks a bit
sloppy.
Change all of the locking functions to use separate flags instead.

The type definitions and constants that were used by COMPAT_CLOUDABI64
are a literal copy of some headers stored inside of CloudABI's C
library, cloudlibc. What is annoying is that we can't make use of
cloudlibc's system call list, as the format is completely different and
doesn't provide enough information. It had to be synced in manually.
We recently decided to solve this (and some other problems) by moving
the ABI definitions into a separate file:
https://github.com/NuxiNL/cloudabi/blob/master/cloudabi.txt
This file is processed by a pile of Python scripts to generate the
header files like before, documentation (markdown), but in our case more
importantly: a FreeBSD system call table.
This change discards the old files in sys/contrib/cloudabi and replaces
them by the latest copies, which requires some minor changes here and
there. Because cloudabi.txt also enforces consistent names of the system
call arguments, we have to patch up a small number of system call
implementations to use the new argument names.
The new header files can also be included directly in FreeBSD kernel
space without needing any includes/defines, so we can now remove
cloudabi_syscalldefs.h and cloudabi64_syscalldefs.h. Patch up the
sources to include the definitions directly from sys/contrib/cloudabi
instead.
Freescale's QorIQ line includes a new ethernet controller, based on their
Datapath Acceleration Architecture (DPAA). This uses a combination of a Frame
manager, Buffer manager, and Queue manager to improve performance across all
interfaces by being able to pass data directly between hardware acceleration
interfaces.
As part of this import, Freescale's Netcomm Software (ncsw) driver is imported.
This was an attempt by Freescale to create an OS-agnostic sub-driver for
managing the hardware, using shims to interface to the OS-specific APIs. This
work was abandoned, and Freescale's primary work is in the Linux driver (dual
BSD/GPL license). Hence, this was imported directly to sys/contrib, rather than
going through the vendor area. Going forward, FreeBSD-specific changes may be
made to the ncsw code, diverging from the upstream in potentially incompatible
ways. An alternative could be to import the Linux driver itself, using the
linuxKPI layer, as that would maintain parity with the vendor-maintained driver.
However, the Linux driver has not been evaluated for reliability yet, and may
have issues with the import, whereas the ncsw-based driver in this commit was
completed by Semihalf 4 years ago, and is very stable.
Other SoC modules based on DPAA, which could be added in the future:
* Security and Encryption engine (SEC4.x, SEC5.x)
* RAID engine
Additional work to be done:
* Implement polling mode
* Test vlan support
* Add support for the Pattern Matching Engine, which can do regular expression
matching on packets.
This driver has been tested on the P5020 QorIQ SoC. Others listed in the
dtsec(4) manual page are expected to work as the same DPAA engine is included in
all.
