This was proposed June, 20th and approved by various committers [1].
They have been marked as deprecated on CURRENT in r320644 [2] on July, 4th.

patm(4) devices.
Maintaining an address family and framework has real costs when we make
infrastructure improvements. In the case of NATM we support no devices
manufactured in the last 20 years and some will not even work in modern
motherboards (some newer devices that patm(4) could be updated to
support apparently exist, but we do not currently have support).
With this change, support remains for some netgraph modules that don't
require NATM support code. It is unclear if all these should remain,
though ng_atmllc certainly stands alone.
Note well: FreeBSD 11 supports NATM and will continue to do so until at
least September 30, 2021. Improvements to the code in FreeBSD 11 are
certainly welcome.

- Add a kvaddr_type to represent kernel virtual addresses instead of
unsigned long.
- Add a struct kvm_nlist which is a stripped down version of struct nlist
that uses kvaddr_t for n_value.
- Add a kvm_native() routine that returns true if an open kvm descriptor
is for a native kernel and memory image.
- Add a kvm_open2() function similar to kvm_openfiles(). It drops the
unused 'swapfile' argument and adds a new function pointer argument for
a symbol resolving function. Native kernels still use _fdnlist() from
libc to resolve symbols if a resolver function is not supplied, but cross
kernels require a resolver.
- Add a kvm_nlist2() function similar to kvm_nlist() except that it uses
struct kvm_nlist instead of struct nlist.
- Add a kvm_read2() function similar to kvm_read() except that it uses
kvaddr_t instead of unsigned long for the kernel virtual address.
- Add a new kvm_arch switch of routines needed by a vmcore backend.
Each backend is responsible for implementing kvm_read2() for a given
vmcore format.
- Use libelf to read headers from ELF kernels and cores (except for
powerpc cores).
- Add internal helper routines for the common page offset hash table used
by the minidump backends.
- Port all of the existing kvm backends to implement a kvm_arch switch and
to be cross-friendly by using private constants instead of ones that
vary by platform (e.g. PAGE_SIZE). Static assertions are present when
a given backend is compiled natively to ensure the private constants
match the real ones.
- Enable all of the existing vmcore backends on all platforms. This means
that libkvm on any platform should be able to perform KVA translation
and read data from a vmcore of any platform.

The primary focus of these changes is to modernize FreeBSD's
tape infrastructure so that we can take advantage of some of the
features of modern tape drives and allow support for LTFS.
Significant changes and new features include:
o sa(4) driver status and parameter information is now exported via an
XML structure. This will allow for changes and improvements later
on that will not break userland applications. The old MTIOCGET
status ioctl remains, so applications using the existing interface
will not break.
o 'mt status' now reports drive-reported tape position information
as well as the previously available calculated tape position
information. These numbers will be different at times, because
the drive-reported block numbers are relative to BOP (Beginning
of Partition), but the block numbers calculated previously via
sa(4) (and still provided) are relative to the last filemark.
Both numbers are now provided. 'mt status' now also shows the
drive INQUIRY information, serial number and any position flags
(BOP, EOT, etc.) provided with the tape position information.
'mt status -v' adds information on the maximum possible I/O size,
and the underlying values used to calculate it.
o The extra sa(4) /dev entries (/dev/saN.[0-3]) have been removed.
The extra devices were originally added as place holders for
density-specific device nodes. Some OSes (NetBSD, NetApp's OnTap
and Solaris) have had device nodes that, when you write to them,
will automatically select a given density for particular tape drives.
This is a convenient way of switching densities, but it was never
implemented in FreeBSD. Only the device nodes were there, and that
sometimes confused users.
For modern tape devices, the density is generally not selectable
(e.g. with LTO) or defaults to the highest availble density when
the tape is rewritten from BOT (e.g. TS11X0). So, for most users,
density selection won't be necessary. If they do need to select
the density, it is easy enough to use 'mt density' to change it.
o Protection information is now supported. This is either a
Reed-Solomon CRC or CRC32 that is included at the end of each block
read and written. On write, the tape drive verifies the CRC, and
on read, the tape drive provides a CRC for the userland application
to verify.
o New, extensible tape driver parameter get/set interface.
o Density reporting information. For drives that support it,
'mt getdensity' will show detailed information on what formats the
tape drive supports, and what formats the tape drive supports.
o Some mt(1) functionality moved into a new mt(3) library so that
external applications can reuse the code.
o The new mt(3) library includes helper routines to aid in parsing
the XML output of the sa(4) driver, and build a tree of driver
metadata.
o Support for the MTLOAD (load a tape in the drive) and MTWEOFI
(write filemark immediate) ioctls needed by IBM's LTFS
implementation.
o Improve device departure behavior for the sa(4) driver. The previous
implementation led to hangs when the device was open.
o This has been tested on the following types of drives:
IBM TS1150
IBM TS1140
IBM LTO-6
IBM LTO-5
HP LTO-2
Seagate DDS-4
Quantum DLT-4000

Many tape driver changes, largely outlined above.
Increase the sa(4) driver read/write timeout from 4 to 32
minutes. This is based on the recommended values for IBM LTO
5/6 drives. This may also avoid timeouts for other tape
hardware that can take a long time to do retries and error
recovery. Longer term, a better way to handle this is to ask
the drive for recommended timeout values using the REPORT
SUPPORTED OPCODES command. Modern IBM and Oracle tape drives
at least support that command, and it would allow for more
accurate timeout values.
Add XML status generation. This is done with a series of
macros to eliminate as much duplicate code as possible. The
new XML-based status values are reported through the new
MTIOCEXTGET ioctl.
Add XML driver parameter reporting, using the new MTIOCPARAMGET
ioctl.
Add a new driver parameter setting interface, using the new
MTIOCPARAMSET and MTIOCSETLIST ioctls.
Add a new MTIOCRBLIM ioctl to get block limits information.
Add CCB/CDB building routines scsi_locate_16, scsi_locate_10,
and scsi_read_position_10().
scsi_locate_10 implements the LOCATE command, as does the
existing scsi_set_position() command. It just supports
additional arguments and features. If/when we figure out a
good way to provide backward compatibility for older
applications using the old function API, we can just revamp
scsi_set_position(). The same goes for
scsi_read_position_10() and the existing scsi_read_position()
function.
Revamp sasetpos() to take the new mtlocate structure as an
argument. It now will use either scsi_locate_10() or
scsi_locate_16(), depending upon the arguments the user
supplies. As before, once we change position we don't have a
clear idea of what the current logical position of the tape
drive is.
For tape drives that support long form position data, we
read the current position and store that for later reporting
after changing the position. This should help applications
like Bacula speed tape access under FreeBSD once they are
modified to support the new ioctls.
Add a new quirk, SA_QUIRK_NO_LONG_POS, that is set for all
drives that report SCSI-2 or older, as well as drives that
report an Illegal Request type error for READ POSITION with
the long format. So we should automatically detect drives
that don't support the long form and stop asking for it after
an initial try.
Add a partition number to the sa(4) softc.
Improve device departure handling. The previous implementation
led to hangs when the device was open.
If an application had the sa(4) driver open, and attempted to
close it after it went away, the cam_periph_release() call in
saclose() would cause the periph to get destroyed because that
was the last reference to it. Because destroy_dev() was
called from the sa(4) driver's cleanup routine (sacleanup()),
and would block waiting for the close to happen, a deadlock
would result.
So instead of calling destroy_dev() from the cleanup routine,
call destroy_dev_sched_cb() from saoninvalidate() and wait for
the callback.
Acquire a reference for devfs in saregister(), and release it
in the new sadevgonecb() routine when all devfs devices for
the particular sa(4) driver instance are gone.
Add a new function, sasetupdev(), to centralize setting
per-instance devfs device parameters instead of repeating the
code in saregister().
Add an open count to the softc, so we know how many
peripheral driver references are a result of open
sessions.
Add the D_TRACKCLOSE flag to the cdevsw flags so
that we get a 1:1 mapping of open to close calls
instead of a N:1 mapping.
This should be a no-op for everything except the
control device, since we don't allow more than one
open on non-control devices.
However, since we do allow multiple opens on the
control device, the combination of the open count
and the D_TRACKCLOSE flag should result in an
accurate peripheral driver reference count, and an
accurate open count.
The accurate open count allows us to release all
peripheral driver references that are the result
of open contexts once we get the callback from devfs.
sys/sys/mtio.h:
Add a number of new mt(4) ioctls and the requisite data
structures. None of the existing interfaces been removed
or changed.
This includes definitions for the following new ioctls:
MTIOCRBLIM /* get block limits */
MTIOCEXTLOCATE /* seek to position */
MTIOCEXTGET /* get tape status */
MTIOCPARAMGET /* get tape params */
MTIOCPARAMSET /* set tape params */
MTIOCSETLIST /* set N params */
usr.bin/mt/Makefile:
mt(1) now depends on libmt, libsbuf and libbsdxml.
usr.bin/mt/mt.1:
Document new mt(1) features and subcommands.
usr.bin/mt/mt.c:
Implement support for mt(1) subcommands that need to
use getopt(3) for their arguments.
Implement a new 'mt status' command to replace the old
'mt status' command. The old status command has been
renamed 'ostatus'.
The new status function uses the MTIOCEXTGET ioctl, and
therefore parses the XML data to determine drive status.
The -x argument to 'mt status' allows the user to dump out
the raw XML reported by the kernel.
The new status display is mostly the same as the old status
display, except that it doesn't print the redundant density
mode information, and it does print the current partition
number and position flags.
Add a new command, 'mt locate', that will supersede the
old 'mt setspos' and 'mt sethpos' commands. 'mt locate'
implements all of the functionality of the MTIOCEXTLOCATE
ioctl, and allows the user to change the logical position
of the tape drive in a number of ways. (Partition,
block number, file number, set mark number, end of data.)
The immediate bit and the explicit address bits are
implemented, but not documented in the man page.
Add a new 'mt weofi' command to use the new MTWEOFI ioctl.
This allows the user to ask the drive to write a filemark
without waiting around for the operation to complete.
Add a new 'mt getdensity' command that gets the XML-based
tape drive density report from the sa(4) driver and displays
it. This uses the SCSI REPORT DENSITY SUPPORT command
to get comprehensive information from the tape drive about
what formats it is able to read and write.
Add a new 'mt protect' command that allows getting and setting
tape drive protection information. The protection information
is a CRC tacked on to the end of every read/write from and to
the tape drive.

IPX was a network transport protocol in Novell's NetWare network operating
system from late 80s and then 90s. The NetWare itself switched to TCP/IP
as default transport in 1998. Later, in this century the Novell Open
Enterprise Server became successor of Novell NetWare. The last release
that claimed to still support IPX was OES 2 in 2007. Routing equipment
vendors (e.g. Cisco) discontinued support for IPX in 2011.
Thus, IPX won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.
