(SEMB) is unable to communicate to Storage Enclosure Processor (SEP), in
response to hard and soft resets it should among other things return value
0x7F in Status register. The weird side is that it means DRQ bit set, which
tells that reset request is not completed. It would be fine if SEMB was the
only device on port. But if SEMB connected to PMP or built into it, it may
block access to other devices sharing same SATA port.
Make some tunings/fixes to soft-reset handling to workaround the issue:
- ahci(4): request CLO on the port after soft reset to ignore DRQ bit;
- siis(4): gracefully reinitialize port after soft reset timeout (hardware
doesn't detect reset request completion in this case);
- mvs(4): if PMP is used, send dummy soft-reset to the PMP port to make it
clear DRQ bit for us.
For now this makes quirks in ata_pmp.c, hiding SEMB ports of SiI3726/SiI4726
PMPs, less important. Further, if hardware permit, I hope to implement real
SEMB support.

My eventual aim is to make the HAL_ANI_CMD internal enum match

This now allows HAL_CAP_INTMIT users to use a public HAL_CAP_INTMIT_

The only magic constants currently used by if_ath are "enable" and

of the ANI variables and I'll convert these to use the public enum API

Specifically, a critical_exit() call that drops the nesting level to zero
has a brief window where the pending preemption flag is set and the
nesting level is set to zero. This is done purposefully to avoid races
where a preemption scheduled by an interrupt could be lost otherwise (see
revision 144777). However, this does mean that if an interrupt fires
during this window and enters and exits a critical section, it may preempt
from the interrupt context. This is generally fine as the interrupt code
is careful to arrange critical sections so that they are not exited until
it is safe to preempt (e.g. interrupts EOI'd and masked if necessary).
However, the SMP rendezvous IPI handler does not quite follow this rule,
and in general a rendezvous can never be preempted. Rendezvous handlers
are also not permitted to schedule threads to execute, so they will not
typically trigger preemptions. SMP rendezvous handlers may use
spinlocks (carefully) such as the rm_cleanIPI() handler used in rmlocks,
but using a spinlock also enters and exits a critical section. If the
interrupted top-half code is in the brief window of critical_exit() where
the nesting level is zero but a preemption is pending, then releasing the
spinlock can trigger a preemption. Because we know that SMP rendezvous
handlers can never schedule a thread, we know that a critical_exit() in
an SMP rendezvous handler will only preempt in this edge case. We also
know that the top-half thread will happily handle the deferred preemption
once the SMP rendezvous has completed, so the preemption will not be lost.
This makes it safe to employ a workaround where we use a nested critical
section in the SMP rendezvous code itself around rendezvous action
routines to prevent any preemptions during an SMP rendezvous. The
workaround intentionally avoids checking for a deferred preemption
when leaving the critical section on the assumption that if there is a
pending preemption it will be handled by the interrupted top-half code.

be represented:
- A single policy namespace is defined, consisting of four possible
policies: "default" to use the global default, "deferred" to force
deferred dispatch, "direct" to employ direct dispatch where possible, and
"hybrid" which makes a dynamic decision based on CPU affinity, ordering,
etc. Routines are implemented to convert between strings and an integer
namespace.
- A new global variable, netisr_dispatch_policy, subsumes existing global
variables for direct dispatch, forced direct dispatch, etc, and is used
for explicit policy interpretation and composition. Old variables remain
so that they can be exported by legacy sysctls for use by old netstat(1)
binaries. A new sysctl and tunable, netisr.dispatch.policy, accepts the
above strings for specifying a global policy default.
- The protocol registration structure, netisr_handler, grows an nh_dispatch
field, which accepts a per-policy policy override. The default value is
'0', which corresponds to "default", meaning that protocols will accept
the global default policy unless otherwise specified.
- Policies are now interpreted and composed explicitly at various points in
packet dispatch; protocol policies override global policies.
- Protocols grow the ability to express a non-opinion about affinity even
when implenting m2cpuid by returning NETISR_CPUID_NONE. In that case, the
framework falls back on source ordering, rather than simply using the
current CPU.
These changes are in support of allowing link layer re-dispatch based on
RSS or similar hashes provided by NICs, especially in the case where the
number of hardware receive queues matches hardware core count, rather than
hardware thread count, requiring further software redistributeon. (i.e.,
on RMI XLR).

This should hopefully make it clearer to developers what is going on
and when TPC is being hacked on, make it obvious why it isn't working for
series 1, 2, 3.
I won't flip on setting TX power for TX series 1, 2, 3 until I've done
some further testing with Kite to ensure it doesn't break anything.
(Before people ask - yes, TPC is only needed for 5ghz regdomains and
yes, Kite is a 2.4ghz only chip, but there are potential use cases
for 2ghz TPC. I just need to sit down and ensure it's supported and
functional.)
control the antenna control bits for the four TX series and the
TPC settings for TX series 1, 2, 3.
The specifics:
* The TPC setting for TX series 0 is handled in ctl0.
* TPC is currently disabled, so the per-packet TX power is
set via the global per-rate TX power register, not per packet.
* The antenna control bits don't matter for AR5416 and later
so they should stay 0 (which they currently do); they may
be set for Kite but as there's no TX diversity supported
at the moment (it requires the NIC to be built with an
external antenna switch, matching how antenna diversity
is done on legacy NICs), so again keep them 0.
This is in preparation for supporting per-rate TPC on the
AR5416 and later. The Kite (and soon to come Kiwi) code
sets ctl8-11 to 0x0, which doesn't have any effect at
the moment. When TPC is enabled it would result in the
second, third and fourth TX series attmpts to be done with
a TX power of 0. This commit doesn't change that; it'll
be followed up with some commits to properly set the TPC
registers appropriately.
