attached to an amdpm1 device that is a child of amdpm0.

1. Implement a large set of ioctl shims so that the Linux management apps
from LSI will work. This includes infrastructure to support adding, deleting
and rescanning arrays at runtime. This is based on work from Doug Ambrosko,
heavily augmented by LSI and Yahoo.
2. Implement full 64-bit DMA support. Systems with more than 4GB of RAM
can now operate without the cost of bounce buffers. Cards that cannot do
64-bit DMA will automatically revert to using bounce buffers. This option
can be forced off by setting the 'hw.amr.force_sg32" tunable in the loader.
It should only be turned off for debugging purposes. This work was sponsored
by Yahoo.
3. Streamline the command delivery and interrupt handler paths after
much discussion with Dell and LSI. The logic now closely matches the
intended design, making it both more robust and much faster. Certain
i/o failures under heavy load should be fixed with this.
4. Optimize the locking. In the interrupt handler, the card can be checked
for completed commands without any locks held, due to the handler being
implicitely serialized and there being no need to look at any shared data.
Only grab the lock to return the command structure to the free pool. A
small optimization can still be made to collect all of the completions
together and then free them together under a single lock.
Items 3 and 4 significantly increase the performance of the driver. On an
LSI 320-2X card, transactions per second went from 13,000 to 31,000 in my
testing with these changes. However, these changes are still fairly
experimental and shouldn't be merged to 6.x until there is more testing.
Thanks to Doug Ambrosko, LSI, Dell, and Yahoo for contributing towards
this.
to use busdma. Unlike most of the other drivers, but similar to the
if_em driver, pre-allocate the dmamaps at init time instead of allocating
them on the fly when descriptors need to be filled. This isn't ideal right
now because a map is allocated for every descriptor slot in the tx, rx, mini,
and jumbo rings (which is a lot!) in order to simplify the bookkeeping, even
though the driver might support filling only a subset of those slots.
Luckily, maps are typically NULL on i386 and amd64, so the cost isn't
very high. It could be an issue with sparc64, but the driver isn't endian
clean either, and that is a much bigger problem to solve first.
Note that jumbo frame support is under-tested, and I'm not even sure if
it till really works correctly given the evil VM magic that is does.
The changes here attempt to preserve the existing semanitcs.

class, then it displays various information about the lock and calls a
new function pointer in lock_class (lc_ddb_show) to dump class-specific
information about the lock as well (such as the owner of a mutex or
xlock'ed sx lock). This is easier than staring at hex dumps of locks to
figure out who owns the lock, etc. Note that extending lock_class doesn't
affect the ABI for any kernel modules as the only code that deals with
lock_class structures directly is kern_mutex.c, kern_sx.c, and witness.

if the boot CPU has a local APIC because some BIOS vendors are not
competent enough to set this bit. Instead, just assume that we always have
a local APIC on amd64. For i386 the check is a bit more subtle. FreeBSD
requires either an MP Table or an ACPI MADT table to enumerate APICs. The
only systems that have one of those tables that don't have local APICs are
some presumably rare (and old) SMP 486 systems using external APICs. Thus,
instead of checking the CPUID_APIC flag, check the CPU class and abort if
we are running on a 486.

action argument with the value obtained from table lookup. The feature
is now applicable only to "pipe", "queue", "divert", "tee", "netgraph"
and "ngtee" rules.
An example usage:
ipfw pipe 1000 config bw 1000Kbyte/s
ipfw pipe 4000 config bw 4000Kbyte/s
ipfw table 1 add x.x.x.x 1000
ipfw table 1 add x.x.x.y 4000
ipfw pipe tablearg ip from table(1) to any
In the example above the rule will throw different packets to different pipes.
TODO:
- Support "skipto" action, but without searching all rules.
- Improve parser, so that it warns about bad rules. These are:
- "tablearg" argument to action, but no "table" in the rule. All
traffic will be blocked.
- "tablearg" argument to action, but "table" searches for entry with
a specific value. All traffic will be blocked.
- "tablearg" argument to action, and two "table" looks - for src and
for dst. The last lookup will match.
changes DELAY to use the TSC once it has been calibrated. This does NOT
use the TSC for long-term timekeeping. It only uses it to bound the
DELAY() spinloop. This should not be affected by the Athlon64 X2 TSC
quirks because the cpu is not halted while we use DELAY().

- Implement cv_wait_unlock() method which has semantics compatible
with the sv_wait() method in IRIX. For cv_wait_unlock(), the lock
must be held before entering the function, but is not held when the
function is exited.
- Implement the existing cv_wait() function in terms of cv_wait_unlock().
