MSI. Unlike as with iflib_fast_intr_ctx(), the former will also enqueue
_task_fn_tx() in addition to _task_fn_rx() if appropriate, bringing TCP
TX throughput of EM-class devices on par with the MSI-X case and, thus,
close to wirespeed/pre-iflib(4) times again. [1]
Note that independently of the interrupt type, the UDP performance with
these MACs still is abysmal and nowhere near to where it was before the
conversion of em(4) to iflib(4).
o In iflib_init_locked(), announce which free list failed to set up.
o In _task_fn_tx() when running netmap(4), issue ifdi_intr_enable instead
of the ifdi_tx_queue_intr_enable method in case of a "legacy" interrupt
as the latter is valid with MSI-X only.
o Instead of adding the missing - and apparently convoluted enough that a
DBG_COUNTER_INC was put into a wrong spot in _task_fn_rx() - checks for
ifdi_{r,t}x_queue_intr_enable being available in the MSI-X case also to
iflib_fast_intr_rxtx(), factor these out to iflib_device_register() and
make the checks fail gracefully rather than panic. This avoids invoking
the checks at runtime over and over again in iflib_fast_intr_rxtx() and
_task_fn_{r,t}x() - even if it's just in case of INVARIANTS - and makes
these functions more readable.
o In iflib_rx_structures_setup(), only initialize LRO resources if device
and driver have LRO capability in order to not waste memory. Also, free
the LRO resources again if setting them up fails for one of the queues.
However, don't bother invoking iflib_rx_sds_free() in that case because
iflib_rx_structures_setup() doesn't call iflib_rxsd_alloc() either (and
iflib_{device,pseudo}_register() will issue iflib_rx_sds_free() in case
of failure via iflib_rx_structures_free(), but there definitely is some
asymmetry left to be fixed, though).
o Similarly, free LRO resources again in iflib_rx_structures_free().
o In iflib_irq_set_affinity(), handle get_core_offset() errors gracefully
instead of panicing (but only in case of INVARIANTS). This is a follow-
up to r344132, as such driver bugs shouldn't be fatal.
o Likewise, handle unknown iflib_intr_type_t in iflib_irq_alloc_generic()
gracefully, too.
o Bring yet more sanity to iflib_msix_init():
- If the device doesn't provide enough MSI-X vectors or not all vectors
can be allocate so the expected number of queues in addition to admin
interrupts can't be supported, try MSI next (and then INTx) as proper
MSI-X vector distribution can't be assured in such cases. In essence,
this change brings r254008 forward to iflib(4). Also, this is the fix
alluded to in the commit message of r343934.
- If the MSI-X allocation has failed, don't prematurely announce MSI is
going to be used as the latter in fact may not be available either.
- When falling back to MSI, only release the MSI-X table resource again
if it was allocated in iflib_msix_init(), i. e. isn't supplied by the
driver, in the first place.
o In mp_ndesc_handler(), handle unknown type arguments gracefully, too.

resume where the last search left off. Suppose that there are no free
blocks of size 32, but plenty of size 16. If we repeatedly request
size 32 blocks, fail, and retry with size 16 blocks, then the failures
all reset the cursor to the beginning of memory, making the 16 block
allocation use a first fit, rather than next fit, strategy.
This change has blist_alloc make a copy of the cursor for its own
decision making, and only updates the real blist cursor after a
successful allocation, making those 16 block searches behave like
next-fit searches.

Allow users to specify multiple dump configurations in a prioritized list.
This enables fallback to secondary device(s) if primary dump fails. E.g.,
one might configure a preference for netdump, but fallback to disk dump as a
second choice if netdump is unavailable.
This change does not list-ify netdump configuration, which is tracked
separately from ordinary disk dumps internally; only one netdump
configuration can be made at a time, for now. It also does not implement
IPv6 netdump.
savecore(8) is already capable of scanning and iterating multiple devices
from /etc/fstab or passed on the command line.
This change doesn't update the rc or loader variables 'dumpdev' in any way;
it can still be set to configure a single dump device, and rc.d/savecore
still uses it as a single device. Only dumpon(8) is updated to be able to
configure the more complicated configurations for now.
As part of revving the ABI, unify netdump and disk dump configuration ioctl
/ structure, and leave room for ipv6 netdump as a future possibility.
Backwards-compatibility ioctls are added to smooth ABI transition,
especially for developers who may not keep kernel and userspace perfectly
synced.

Use the nitems() macro instead of the expansion, a'la r298352. Also, fix the
location of this check to after initializing availmem_regions_sz, so that the
check isn't always against 0, thus always failing (nitems(phys_avail) is always
more than 0).
kern_execve() locks text vnode exclusive to be able to set and clear
VV_TEXT flag. VV_TEXT is mutually exclusive with the v_writecount > 0
condition.
The change removes VV_TEXT, replacing it with the condition
v_writecount <= -1, and puts v_writecount under the vnode interlock.
Each text reference decrements v_writecount. To clear the text
reference when the segment is unmapped, it is recorded in the
vm_map_entry backed by the text file as MAP_ENTRY_VN_TEXT flag, and
v_writecount is incremented on the map entry removal
The operations like VOP_ADD_WRITECOUNT() and VOP_SET_TEXT() check that
v_writecount does not contradict the desired change. vn_writecheck()
is now racy and its use was eliminated everywhere except access.
Atomic check for writeability and increment of v_writecount is
performed by the VOP. vn_truncate() now increments v_writecount
around VOP_SETATTR() call, lack of which is arguably a bug on its own.
nullfs bypasses v_writecount to the lower vnode always, so nullfs
vnode has its own v_writecount correct, and lower vnode gets all
references, since object->handle is always lower vnode.
On the text vnode' vm object dealloc, the v_writecount value is reset
to zero, and deadfs vop_unset_text short-circuit the operation.
Reclamation of lowervp always reclaims all nullfs vnodes referencing
lowervp first, so no stray references are left.

Right now ath_rate_sample has a fixed rate schedule, rather than the minstrel_ht
style "best, good, most reliable" triplet. So, if higher rates are tried then
it'll not fail back to a lower MCS rate in that transmission schedule.
This means that in low SNR situations it'll not easily drop to MCS0 unless enough
transmissions occur to allow rate control to eventually decide to drop; and if
it's TCP traffic it'll get slowed down because of packet loss.
It's worse for 2-stream and 3-stream rates; it doesn't ever fall back to lower
stream rates, and these higher stream rates required higher SNR to work.
So instead let's (for now?) have each of the 11n transmit rates use MCS0 as
the last attempt. ath_rate_sample will quickly see that rate succeeds more
and will move to it much quicker.
Testing:
* AR9344 (Wasp) - 2G STA mode
These are some fun issues I've found with my upstairs wifi link at such a ridiculous
low signal level (like, < 5dB.)
* Add per-station tx/rx rssi statistics, in potential preparation to use that
in the RX rate control.
* Call the rate control on each received frame to let it potentially use
it as a hint for what rates to potentially use. It's a no-op right now.
* Do ANI calibration during scan as well. The ath_newstate() call was disabling the
ANI timer and only re-enabling it during transitions to _RUN. This has the
unfortunate side-effect that if ANI deafened the NIC because of interference
and it disassociated, it wouldn't be reset and the scan would never hear beacons.
The ANI configuration is stored at least globally on some HALs and per-channel
on others. Because of this a NIC reset wouldn't help; the ANI parameters would
simply be programmed back in.
Now, I have a feeling I also need to do this during AUTH/ASSOC too and maybe,
if I'm feeling clever, I need to reset the ANI parameters on a given channel
during a transition through INIT or if the VAP is destroyed/re-created.
However for now this gets me out of the immediate weeds with connectivity
upstairs (and thus I /can/ commit); I'll keep chipping away at tidying this
stuff up in subsequent commits.

IPI_STOP is used after panic or when ddb is entered manually. MONITOR/
MWAIT allows CPUs that support the feature to sleep in a low power way
instead of spinning. Something similar is already used at idle.
It is perhaps especially useful in oversubscribed VM environments, and is
safe to use even if the panic/ddb thread is not the BSP. (Except in the
presence of MWAIT errata, which are detected automatically on platforms with
known wakeup problems.)
It can be tuned/sysctled with "machdep.stop_mwait," which defaults to 0
(off). This commit also introduces the tunable
"machdep.mwait_cpustop_broken," which defaults to 0, unless the CPU has
known errata, but may be set to "1" in loader.conf to signal that mwait
wakeup is broken on CPUs FreeBSD does not yet know about.
Unfortunately, Bhyve doesn't yet support MONITOR extensions, so this doesn't
help bhyve hypervisors running FreeBSD guests.
