- Limit queue autoconfiguration to 8 queues to prevent the driver from
requesting a large number of MSI-X vectors at boot.
- Fix potential kernel panic that occurs when the driver loads and cannot
get all requested MSIX vectors. Instead, attach() will fail with an error.
- Move taskqueue setup to later in attach() to prevent having to free
taskqueues if some other error in attach() occurs.

and geom_uncompress(4):
1. mkuzip(8):
- Proper support for eliminating all-zero blocks when compressing an
image. This feature is already supported by the geom_uzip(4) module
and CLOOP format in general, so it's just a matter of making mkuzip(8)
match. It should be noted, however that this feature while it sounds
great, results in very slight improvement in the overall compression
ratio, since compressing default 16k all-zero block produces only 39
bytes compressed output block, which is 99.8% compression ratio. With
typical average compression ratio of amd64 binaries and data being
around 60-70% the difference between 99.8% and 100.0% is not that
great further diluted by the ratio of number of zero blocks in the
uncompressed image to the overall number of blocks being less than
0.5 (typically). However, this may be important from performance
standpoint, so that kernel are not spinning its wheels decompressing
those empty blocks every time this zero region is read. It could also
be important when you create huge image mostly filled with zero
blocks for testing purposes.
- New feature allowing to de-duplicate output image. It turns out that
if you twist CLOOP format a bit you can do that as well. And unlike
zero-blocks elimination, this gives a noticeable improvement in the
overall compression ratio, reducing output image by something like
3-4% on my test UFS2 3GB image consisting of full FreeBSD base system
plus some of the packages (openjdk, apache etc), about 2.3GB worth of
file data (800+MB compressed). The only caveat is that images created
with this feature "on" would not work on older versions of FeeBSDxi
kernel, hence it's turned off by default.
- provide options to control both features and document them in manual
page.
- merge in all relevant LZMA compression support from the mkulzma(8),
add new option to select between both.
- switch license from ad-hoc beerware into standard 2-clause BSD.
2. geom_uzip(4):
- implement support for de-duplicated images;
- optimize some code paths to handle "all-zero" blocks without reading
any compressed data;
- beef up manual page to explain that geom_uzip(4) is not limited only
to md(4) images. The compressed data can be written to the block
device and accessed directly via magic of GEOM(4) and devfs(4),
including to mount root fs from a compressed drive.
- convert debug log code from being compiled in conditionally into
being present all the time and provide two sysctls to turn it on or
off. Due to intended use of the module, it can be used in
environments where there may not be a luxury to put new kernel with
debug code enabled. Having those options handy allows debug issues
without as much problem by just having access to serial console or
network shell access to a box/appliance. The resulting additional
CPU cycles are just few int comparisons and branches, and those are
minuscule when compared to data decompression which is the main
feature of the module.
- hopefully improve robustness and resiliency of the geom_uzip(4) by
performing some of the data validation / range checking on the TOC
entries and rejecting to attach to an image if those checks fail.
- merge in all relevant LZMA decompression support from the
geom_uncompress(4), enable automatically when appropriate format is
indicated in the header.
- move compilation work into its own worker thread so that it does not
clog g_up. This allows multiple instances work in parallel utilizing
smp cores.
- document new knobs in the manual page.

Add two new functions, sysdecode_abi_to_freebsd_errno() and
sysdecode_freebsd_to_abi_errno(), which convert errno values between
the native FreeBSD ABI and other supported ABIs. Note that the
mappings are not necessarily perfect meaning in some cases multiple
errors in one ABI might map to a single error in another ABI. In that
case, the reverse mapping will return one of the errors that maps, but
which error is non-deterministic.
Change truss to always report the raw error value to the user but
use libsysdecode to map it to a native errno value that can be used
with strerror() to generate a description. Previously truss reported
the "converted" error value. Now the user will always see the exact
error value that the application sees.
Change kdump to report the truly raw error value to the user. Previously
kdump would report the absolute value of the raw error value (so for
Linux binaries it didn't output the FreeBSD error value, but the positive
value of the Linux error). Now it reports the real (i.e. negative) error
value for Linux binaries. Also, use libsysdecode to convert the native
FreeBSD error reported in the ktrace record to the raw error used by the
ABI. This means that the Linux ABI can now be handled directly in
ktrsysret() and removes the need for linux_ktrsysret().

we'll loosen this requirement.

Fix a potential crash issue discovered by Alexander Cherepanov:
It seems bsdtar automatically handles stacked compression. This is a
nice feature but it could be problematic when it's completely

Without ulimit, bsdtar will eat all available memory. This could also
be a problem for other applications using libarchive.

Also, use OF_getencprop() instead calling fdt32_to_cpu() separately.
- At Intel it is believed that most of their products support "only"
40 DMA segments so lower {EM,IGB}_MAX_SCATTER accordingly. Actually,
40 is more than plenty to handle full size TSO packets so it doesn't
make sense to further distinguish between MAC variants that really
can do 64 DMA segments. Moreover, capping at 40 DMA segments limits
the stack usage of {em,igb}_xmit() that - given the rare use of more
than these - previously hardly was justifiable, while still being
sufficient to avoid the problems seen with em(4) and EM_MAX_SCATTER
set to 32.
- In igb(4), pass the actually supported TSO parameters up the stack.
Previously, the defaults set in if_attach_internal() were applied,
i. e. a maximum of 35 TSO segments, which made supporting more than
these in the driver pointless. However, this might explain why no
problems were seen with IGB_MAX_SCATTER at 64.
- In em(4), take the 5 m_pullup(9) invocations performed by em_xmit()
in the TSO case into account when reporting TSO parameters upwards.
In the worst case, each of these calls will add another mbuf and,
thus, the requirement for an additional DMA segment. So for best
performance, it doesn't make sense to advertize a maximum of TSO
segments that typically will require defragmentation in em_xmit().
Again, this leaves enough room to handle full size TSO packets.
- Drop TSO macros from if_lem.h given that corresponding MACS don't
support TSO in the first place.

Linux-driven changes to the way the chip's two interrupt controllers are
defined (we only support one of them) led to no interrupt processing, so
the system would hang after device instantiation. This workaround just
rewrites the FDT data on the fly to get interrupt handling back under the
control of the main GIC device.
If/when we ever support deep sleep modes that involve powering down the
main GIC, we'll have to undo this change, write a driver for the GPC-PIC,
and somehow manage the handoff of responsibilities between the two drivers
as the chip transitions in/out of deep sleep mode.

Now if you have a dhcp server available you can easily net-boot a u-boot
system even if you don't control the dhcp server config, by setting just
two variables in the u-boot env:
loaderdev=net

Previously you had to either accept all the dhcp parameters from the
server without the ability to locally provide the rootpath, or you had
to forego dhcp and set more vars (ipaddr, netmask, serverip, rootpath).
