d3a8a8b9fa Split $ipv6_prefer into $ip6addrctl_policy and $ipv6_activate_all_interfaces.
The $ip6addrctl_policy is a variable to choose a pre-defined address
selection policy set by ip6addrctl(8).
The keyword "ipv4_prefer" sets IPv4-preferred one described in Section 10.3,
the keyword "ipv6_prefer" sets IPv6-preferred one in Section 2.1 in RFC 3484,
respectively.  When "AUTO" is specified, it attempts to read
/etc/ip6addrctl.conf first.  If it is found, it reads and installs it as
a policy table.  If not, either of the two pre-defined policy tables is
chosen automatically according to $ipv6_activate_all_interfaces.

When $ipv6_activate_all_interfaces=NO, interfaces which have no corresponding
$ifconfig_IF_ipv6 is marked as IFDISABLED for security reason.

The default values are ip6addrctl_policy=AUTO and
ipv6_activate_all_interfaces=NO.

4dc88ebedf Add BSD grep to the base system and make it our default grep.
Deliverables: Small and clean code (1,4 KSLOC vs GNU's 8,5 KSLOC),
              lower memory usage than GNU grep, GNU compatibility,
              BSD license.

TODO:         Performance is somewhat behind GNU grep but it is only
              significant for bigger searches.  The reason is complex, the
              most important factor is that GNU grep uses lots of
              optimizations to improve the speed of the regex library.
              First, we need a modern regex library (practically by adopting
              TRE), add support for GNU-style non-standard regexes and then
              reevalute the performance issues and look for bottlenecks.  In
              the meantime, for those, who need better performance, it is
              possible to build GNU grep by setting WITH_GNU_GREP.

c3e289e1ce MFppc64:
Kernel sources for 64-bit PowerPC, along with build-system changes to keep
32-bit kernels compiling (build system changes for 64-bit kernels are
coming later). Existing 32-bit PowerPC kernel configurations must be
updated after this change to specify their architecture.

2965a45315 On Alan's advice, rather than do a wholesale conversion on a single
architecture from page queue lock to a hashed array of page locks
(based on a patch by Jeff Roberson), I've implemented page lock
support in the MI code and have only moved vm_page's hold_count
out from under page queue mutex to page lock. This changes
pmap_extract_and_hold on all pmaps.

21edb039c6 WITH_CTF can now be specified in src.conf (not recommended, there
are some problems with static executables), make.conf (would also
affect ports which do not use GNU make and do not override the
compile targets) or in the kernel config (via "makeoptions
WITH_CTF=yes").

Additional (related) changes:
 - propagate WITH_CTF to module builds
 - do not add -g to the linker flags, it's a noop there anyway
   (at least according to the man page of ld)
 - do not add -g to CFLAGS unconditionally
   we need to have a look if it is really needed (IMO not) or if there
   is a way to add it only when WITH_CTF is used

Note: ctfconvert / ctfmerge lines will not appear in the build output,
to protect the innocent (those which do not build with WITH_CTF would
see the shell-test and may think WITH_CTF is used).

841c0c7ec7 Provide groundwork for 32-bit binary compatibility on non-x86 platforms,
for upcoming 64-bit PowerPC and MIPS support. This renames the COMPAT_IA32
option to COMPAT_FREEBSD32, removes some IA32-specific code from MI parts
of the kernel and enhances the freebsd32 compatibility code to support
big-endian platforms.

f7829d0d5c Introduce the new kernel thread called "deadlock resolver".
While the name is pretentious, a good explanation of its targets is
reported in this 17 months old presentation e-mail:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-arch/2008-August/008452.html

In order to implement it, the sq_type in sleepqueues is mandatory and not
only compiled along with INVARIANTS option. Additively, a new sleepqueue
function, sleepq_type() is added, returning the type of the sleepqueue
linked to a wchan.
Three new sysctls are added in order to configure the thread:
debug.deadlkres.slptime_threshold
debug.deadlkres.blktime_threshold
debug.deadlkres.sleepfreq

rappresenting the thresholds for sleep and block time that will lead to
a deadlock matching (when exceeded), while the sleepfreq rappresents the
number of seconds between 2 consecutive thread runnings.
In order to enable the deadlock resolver thread recompile your kernel
with the option DEADLKRES.

e42fc36867 Switch the default terminal emulation style to xterm for most platforms.
Right now syscons(4) uses a cons25-style terminal emulator. The
disadvantages of that are:

- Little compatibility with embedded devices with serial interfaces.
- Bad bandwidth efficiency, mainly because of the lack of scrolling
  regions.
- A very hard transition path to support for modern character sets like
  UTF-8.

Our terminal emulation library, libteken, has been supporting
xterm-style terminal emulation for months, so flip the switch and make
everyone use an xterm-style console driver.

I still have to enable this on i386. Right now pc98 and i386 share the
same /etc/ttys file. I'm not going to switch pc98, because it uses its
own Kanji-capable cons25 emulator.

IMPORTANT: What to do if things go wrong (i.e. graphical artifacts):

- Run the application inside script(1), try to reduce the problem and
  send me the log file.
- In the mean time, you can run `vidcontrol -T cons25' and `export
  TERM=cons25' so you can run applications the same way you did before.
  You can also build your kernel with `options TEKEN_CONS25' to make all
  virtual terminals use the cons25 emulator by default.

2e77c5abfb Fix several logic bugs in the previous IPv6 variable change and
re-add $ipv6_enable support for backward compatibility.  From
UPDATING:

 1. To use IPv6, simply define $ifconfig_IF_ipv6 like $ifconfig_IF
    for IPv4.  For aliases, $ifconfig_IF_aliasN should be used.
    Note that both variables need the "inet6" keyword at the head.

    Do not set $ipv6_network_interfaces manually if you do not
    understand what you are doing.  It is not needed in most cases.

    $ipv6_ifconfig_IF and $ipv6_ifconfig_IF_aliasN still work, but
    they are obsolete.

 2. $ipv6_enable is obsolete.  Use $ipv6_prefer and/or
    "inet6 accept_rtadv" keyword in ifconfig(8) instead.

    If you define $ipv6_enable=YES, it means $ipv6_prefer=YES and
    all configured interfaces have "inet6 accept_rtadv" in the
    $ifconfig_IF_ipv6.  These are for backward compatibility.

 3. A new variable $ipv6_prefer has been added.  If NO, IPv6
    functionality of interfaces with no corresponding
    $ifconfig_IF_ipv6 is disabled by using "inet6 ifdisabled" flag,
    and the default address selection policy of ip6addrctl(8)
    is the IPv4-preferred one (see rc.d/ip6addrctl for more details).
    Note that if you want to configure IPv6 functionality on the
    disabled interfaces after boot, first you need to clear the flag by
    using ifconfig(8) like:

         ifconfig em0 inet6 -ifdisabled

    If YES, the default address selection policy is set as
    IPv6-preferred.

    The default value of $ipv6_prefer is NO.

 4. If your system need to receive Router Advertisement messages,
    define "inet6 accept_rtadv" in $ifconfig_IF_ipv6.  The rc(8)
    scripts automatically invoke rtsol(8) when the interface becomes
    UP.  The Router Advertisement messages are used for SLAAC
    (State-Less Address AutoConfiguration).

dc6fbf6545 * Completely Remove the option STOP_NMI from the kernel. This option
has proven to have a good effect when entering KDB by using a NMI,
but it completely violates all the good rules about interrupts
disabled while holding a spinlock in other occasions.  This can be the
cause of deadlocks on events where a normal IPI_STOP is expected.
* Adds an new IPI called IPI_STOP_HARD on all the supported architectures.
This IPI is responsible for sending a stop message among CPUs using a
privileged channel when disponible. In other cases it just does match a
normal IPI_STOP.
Right now the IPI_STOP_HARD functionality uses a NMI on ia32 and amd64
architectures, while on the other has a normal IPI_STOP effect. It is
responsibility of maintainers to eventually implement an hard stop
when necessary and possible.
* Use the new IPI facility in order to implement a new userend SMP kernel
function called stop_cpus_hard(). That is specular to stop_cpu() but
it does use the privileged channel for the stopping facility.
* Let KDB use the newly introduced function stop_cpus_hard() and leave
stop_cpus() for all the other cases
* Disable interrupts on CPU0 when starting the process of APs suspension.
* Style cleanup and comments adding

This patch should fix the reboot/shutdown deadlocks many users are
constantly reporting on mailing lists.

Please don't forget to update your config file with the STOP_NMI

eddfbb763d Build on Jeff Roberson's linker-set based dynamic per-CPU allocator
(DPCPU), as suggested by Peter Wemm, and implement a new per-virtual
network stack memory allocator.  Modify vnet to use the allocator
instead of monolithic global container structures (vinet, ...).  This
change solves many binary compatibility problems associated with
VIMAGE, and restores ELF symbols for virtualized global variables.

Each virtualized global variable exists as a "reference copy", and also
once per virtual network stack.  Virtualized global variables are
tagged at compile-time, placing the in a special linker set, which is
loaded into a contiguous region of kernel memory.  Virtualized global
variables in the base kernel are linked as normal, but those in modules
are copied and relocated to a reserved portion of the kernel's vnet
region with the help of a the kernel linker.

Virtualized global variables exist in per-vnet memory set up when the
network stack instance is created, and are initialized statically from
the reference copy.  Run-time access occurs via an accessor macro, which
converts from the current vnet and requested symbol to a per-vnet
address.  When "options VIMAGE" is not compiled into the kernel, normal
global ELF symbols will be used instead and indirection is avoided.

This change restores static initialization for network stack global
variables, restores support for non-global symbols and types, eliminates
the need for many subsystem constructors, eliminates large per-subsystem
structures that caused many binary compatibility issues both for
monitoring applications (netstat) and kernel modules, removes the
per-function INIT_VNET_*() macros throughout the stack, eliminates the
need for vnet_symmap ksym(2) munging, and eliminates duplicate
definitions of virtualized globals under VIMAGE_GLOBALS.

237fbe0a1c Replace struct tcpopt with a proxy toeopt struct in the TOE driver interface to

The patch breaks the ABI. Bump __FreeBSD_version to 800103 accordingly. The cxgb
driver is the only TOE consumer affected by this change, and needs to be

The IOCTL functionality is entirely duplicated and routing sockets

838d985825 Rework the credential code to support larger values of NGROUPS and
NGROUPS_MAX, eliminate ABI dependencies on them, and raise the to 1024
and 1023 respectively.  (Previously they were equal, but under a close
reading of POSIX, NGROUPS_MAX was defined to be too large by 1 since it
is the number of supplemental groups, not total number of groups.)

The bulk of the change consists of converting the struct ucred member
cr_groups from a static array to a pointer.  Do the equivalent in
kinfo_proc.

Introduce new interfaces crcopysafe() and crsetgroups() for duplicating
a process credential before modifying it and for setting group lists
respectively.  Both interfaces take care for the details of allocating
groups array. crsetgroups() takes care of truncating the group list
to the current maximum (NGROUPS) if necessary.  In the future,
crsetgroups() may be responsible for insuring invariants such as sorting
the supplemental groups to allow groupmember() to be implemented as a
binary search.

Because we can not change struct xucred without breaking application
ABIs, we leave it alone and introduce a new XU_NGROUPS value which is
always 16 and is to be used or NGRPS as appropriate for things such as
NFS which need to use no more than 16 groups.  When feasible, truncate
the group list rather than generating an error.

Minor changes:
  - Reduce the number of hand rolled versions of groupmember().
  - Do not assign to both cr_gid and cr_groups[0].
  - Modify ipfw to cache ucreds instead of part of their contents since
    they are immutable once referenced by more than one entity.
