Changes include modifications in kernel crash dump routines, dumpon(8) and
savecore(8). A new tool called decryptcore(8) was added.
A new DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O control was added to send a kernel crash dump
configuration in the diocskerneldump_arg structure to the kernel.
The old DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O control was renamed to DIOCSKERNELDUMP_FREEBSD11 for
backward ABI compatibility.
dumpon(8) generates an one-time random symmetric key and encrypts it using
an RSA public key in capability mode. Currently only AES-256-CBC is supported
but EKCD was designed to implement support for other algorithms in the future.
The public key is chosen using the -k flag. The dumpon rc(8) script can do this
automatically during startup using the dumppubkey rc.conf(5) variable. Once the
keys are calculated dumpon sends them to the kernel via DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O
control.
When the kernel receives the DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O control it generates a random
IV and sets up the key schedule for the specified algorithm. Each time the
kernel tries to write a crash dump to the dump device, the IV is replaced by
a SHA-256 hash of the previous value. This is intended to make a possible
differential cryptanalysis harder since it is possible to write multiple crash
dumps without reboot by repeating the following commands:
# sysctl debug.kdb.enter=1
db> call doadump(0)
db> continue
# savecore
A kernel dump key consists of an algorithm identifier, an IV and an encrypted
symmetric key. The kernel dump key size is included in a kernel dump header.
The size is an unsigned 32-bit integer and it is aligned to a block size.
The header structure has 512 bytes to match the block size so it was required to
make a panic string 4 bytes shorter to add a new field to the header structure.
If the kernel dump key size in the header is nonzero it is assumed that the
kernel dump key is placed after the first header on the dump device and the core
dump is encrypted.
Separate functions were implemented to write the kernel dump header and the
kernel dump key as they need to be unencrypted. The dump_write function encrypts
data if the kernel was compiled with the EKCD option. Encrypted kernel textdumps
are not supported due to the way they are constructed which makes it impossible
to use the CBC mode for encryption. It should be also noted that textdumps don't
contain sensitive data by design as a user decides what information should be
dumped.
savecore(8) writes the kernel dump key to a key.# file if its size in the header
is nonzero. # is the number of the current core dump.
decryptcore(8) decrypts the core dump using a private RSA key and the kernel
dump key. This is performed by a child process in capability mode.
If the decryption was not successful the parent process removes a partially
decrypted core dump.
Description on how to encrypt crash dumps was added to the decryptcore(8),
dumpon(8), rc.conf(5) and savecore(8) manual pages.
EKCD was tested on amd64 using bhyve and i386, mipsel and sparc64 using QEMU.
The feature still has to be tested on arm and arm64 as it wasn't possible to run
FreeBSD due to the problems with QEMU emulation and lack of hardware.

This adds support to camcontrol(8) and libcam(3) for getting and setting
the time on SCSI protocol drives. This is more commonly found on tape
drives, but is a SPC (SCSI Primary Commands) command, and may be found

since the counters in quesitons would require billions of iops for

(gpt)zfsboot will read one-time boot directives from a special ZFS pool
area. The area was previously described as "Boot Block Header", but
currently it is know as Pad2, marked as reserved and is zeroed out on
pool creation. The new code interprets data in this area, if any, using
the same format as boot.config. The area is immediately wiped out.
Failure to parse the directives results in a reboot right after the
cleanup. Otherwise the boot sequence proceeds as usual.
zfsbootcfg writes zfsboot arguments specified on its command line to the
Pad2 area of a disk identified by vfs.zfs.boot.primary_pool and
vfs.zfs.boot.primary_vdev kenv variables that are set by loader during
boot. Please see the manual page for more.

Currently, '/etc/rc.d/swaplate stop' removes all swap devices. This can be
very slow and may not even be possible if there is a lot of swap space in
use. However, removing swap devices is only needed for late swap devices
that may depend on daemons that subsequent shutdown steps stop. Normal swap
devices such as hard disk partitions will remain available throughout the
shutdown process and need not be removed.
In swapoff, interpret -aL to remove late swap devices only, and use this in
etc/rc.d/swaplate. The meaning of -aL in swapon remains unchanged (add all
swap devices, both normal and late).

In r307684, I changed rescan_or_reset_bus() to bzero stack-allocated CCBs
before sending them to the kernel because there was stack garbage in there
that wound up meaning that bogus CCB flags were set.
While this fixed the 'camcontrol rescan all' case (XPT_DEV_MATCH CCBs were
failing previously), it broke the 'camcontrol rescan 0' (or any other
number) case when INVARIANTS are turned on. Rescanning a single bus
reliably produced an assert in cam_periph_runccb():
panic: cam_periph_runccb: ccb=0xfffff80044ffe000, func_code=0x708, flags=0xffffdde0
The flags values don't make sense from the code. Changing the CCBs in
rescan_or_reset_bus() from stack to heap allocated avoids the problem.
It would be better to understand why userland stack allocated CCBs don't
work properly, since there may be other code that breaks if stack allocated
CCBs don't work.
