When this driver was written it made sense to make this default to off,
but these days almost all BIOSses will do the right thing. Furthermore
non-mmio communication only works on Intel architectures.
So lets default to allowing mmio, but not change the semantics of the
AHC_ALLOW_MEMIO flag to not break existing installs. Also document the
already existing hint.ahc.<unit>.allow_memio.

Add a sound(4) bridge device driver for the RME HDSP 9632 and HDSP 9652
sound cards. These cards require a nowadays rare PCI 32bit (not PCIe)
slot, but still see use due to their value and wealth of features.
The HDSP 9632 is mostly comparable to the newer HDSPe AIO, while the
HDSP 9652 is similar to the HDSPe RayDAT. These HDSPe PCIe cards are
supported by the snd_hdspe(4) driver which was taken as a starting point
for development of snd_hdsp(4).
Implementation is kept separately due to substantial differences in
hardware configuration and to allow easy removal in case PCI 32bit
support would be phased out in the future.
The snd_hdsp(4) kernel module is not enabled by default, and can be
loaded at runtime with kldload(8) or during boot via loader.conf(5).
Basic operation was tested with both cards, not including all optional
cable connectors and expansion boards. Features should be roughly on par
with the snd_hdspe(4) supported cards.

This dates way, way back with the original net80211 support w/ atheros chips.
The earliest chip (AR5210) had limitations supporting software encryption.
It only had the four WEP slots, and not any keycache entries. So when
trying to do CCMP/TKIP encryption would be enabled and the key slots
would have nothing useful in them, resulting in garbage encryption/decryption.
I changed this back in 2012 to disable supporting hardware WEP for AR5210
so if_ath(4) / net80211 crypto is all done in software and yes,
I could do CCMP/TKIP on AR5210 in software.
Fast-forward to newer-ish hardware - the Qualcomm 11ac hardware.
Those also don't support pass-through keycache slots! Well, the hardware
does at that layer, but then there's a whole offload data path encap/decap
layer that's turning the frames from raw wifi into ethernet frames (for
"dumb" AP behaviours) or "wifi direct" frames (ie, "windows".)
This hides a bunch of header frame contents required for doing the software
encryption / decryption path.
But then if you enable the raw transmit/receive frame format it ALSO
bypasses the hardware encryption/decryption engine!
So for those NICs:
* If you want to do encryption, you can only use the firmware supported
ciphers w/ wifi direct or ethernet;
* If you want to use software encrypt/decrypt, you MUST disable all encryption
and instead use 100% software encryption.
The wpa_supplicant bsd driver code has a specific comment about this and
flips on supporting WEP/TKIP/CCMP, which is understandable but it doesn't
fix the ACTUAL intention of all of this stuff.
So:
* create a new field, ic_sw_cryptocaps
* populate it with the default supported set of ciphers for net80211
(right now wep, tkip, ccmp)
* Communicate the combination of both ic_sw_cryptocaps and ic_cryptocaps
to wpa_supplicant via the relevant devcap ioctl.
* Update manpage.
I'll follow this up with a driver_bsd.c change in wpa_supplicant to
trust this again, and then start adding the other cipher support there.

Previously it was only possible to enable target mode for these drivers
by rebuilding the kernel with AHC_TMODE_ENABLE or AHD_TMODE_ENABLE and a
bitmask of which units to statically enable for target mode.
There is no space-savings in the driver by not having AHC_TMODE_ENABLE
set, so in addition to the compile time option lets also introduce some
tunables:
hint.ahc.<unit>.tmode_enable=0/1
hint.ahd.<unit>.tmode_enable=0/1
For compatibility the old behavior is retained, but it can be overridden

This is the server (target in SCSI terms) for NVMe over Fabrics.
Userland is responsible for accepting a new queue pair and receiving
the initial Connect command before handing the queue pair off via an
ioctl to this CTL frontend.
This frontend exposes CTL LUNs as NVMe namespaces to remote hosts.
Users can ask LUNS to CTL that can be shared via either iSCSI or
NVMeoF.

This is the client (initiator in SCSI terms) for NVMe over Fabrics.
Userland is responsible for creating a set of queue pairs and then
handing them off via an ioctl to this driver, e.g. via the 'connect'
command from nvmecontrol(8). An nvmeX new-bus device is created
at the top-level to represent the remote controller similar to PCI
nvmeX devices for PCI-express controllers.
As with nvme(4), namespace devices named /dev/nvmeXnsY are created and
pass through commands can be submitted to either the namespace devices
or the controller device. For example, 'nvmecontrol identify nvmeX'
works for a remote Fabrics controller the same as for a PCI-express
controller.
nvmf exports remote namespaces via nda(4) devices using the new NVMF
CAM transport. nvmf does not support nvd(4), only nda(4).

Structurally this is very similar to the TCP transport for iSCSI
(icl_soft.c). One key difference is that NVMeoF transports use a more
abstract interface working with NVMe commands rather than transport
PDUs. Thus, the data transfer for a given command is managed entirely
in the transport backend.
Similar to icl_soft.c, separate kthreads are used to handle transmit
and receive for each queue pair. On the transmit side, when a capsule
is transmitted by an upper layer, it is placed on a queue for
processing by the transmit thread. The transmit thread converts
command response capsules into suitable TCP PDUs where each PDU is
described by an mbuf chain that is then queued to the backing socket's
send buffer. Command capsules can embed data along with the NVMe
command.
On the receive side, a socket upcall notifies the receive kthread when
more data arrives. Once enough data has arrived for a PDU, the PDU is
handled synchronously in the kthread. PDUs such as R2T or data
related PDUs are handled internally, with callbacks invoked if a data
transfer encounters an error, or once the data transfer has completed.
Received capsule PDUs invoke the upper layer's capsule_received
callback.
struct nvmf_tcp_command_buffer manages a TCP command buffer for data
transfers that do not use in-capsule-data as described in the NVMeoF
spec. Data related PDUs such as R2T, C2H, and H2C are associated with
a command buffer except in the case of the send_controller_data
transport method which simply constructs one or more C2H PDUs from the
caller's mbuf chain.

Several users with alc(4)-based "Killer" Ethernet cards have reported
issues with this driver not passing traffic, which are solved by
disabling MSI-X using the provided tunable.
To work around this issue, disable MSI-X by default on this card.
This is done by having msix_disable default to 2, which means
"auto-detect". The user can still override this to either 0 or 1 as
desired.
Since these are slow (1Gbps) Ethernet ICs used in low-end systems, it's
unlikely this will cause any practical performance issues; on the other
hand, the card not working by default likely causes issues for many new
FreeBSD users who find their network port doesn't work and have no idea

When in netmap (emulated) mode, wireguard interfaces prepend or strip a
dummy ethernet header when interfacing with netmap. The netmap
application thus sees unencrypted, de-encapsulated frames with a fixed
header.
In this mode, netmap hooks the if_input and if_transmit routines of the
ifnet. Packets from the host TX ring are handled by wg_if_input(),
which simply hands them to the netisr layer; packets which would
otherwise be tunneled are intercepted in wg_output() and placed in the
host RX ring.
The "physical" TX ring is processed by wg_transmit(), which behaves
identically to wg_output() when netmap is not enabled, and packets
appear in the "physical" RX ring by hooking wg_deliver_in().

Hot-unplugging a sound device, such as a USB sound card, whilst being
consumed by an application, results in an infinite loop until either the
application closes the device's file descriptor, or the channel
automatically times out after hw.snd.timeout seconds. In the case of a
detach however, the timeout approach is still not ideal, since we want
all resources to be released immediatelly, without waiting for N seconds
until we can use the bus again.
The timeout mechanism works by calling chn_sleep() in chn_read() and
chn_write() (see pcm/channel.c) in order to send the thread to sleep,
using cv_timedwait_sig(). Since chn_sleep() sets the CHN_F_SLEEPING flag
while waiting for cv_timedwait_sig() to return, we can test this flag in
pcm_unregister() (called during detach) and wakeup the sleeping
thread(s) to immediately kill the channel(s) being consumed.

Currently the snd_clone framework creates device nodes on-demand for
every channel, through the dsp_clone() callback, and is responsible for
routing audio to the appropriate channel(s). This patch gets rid of the
whole snd_clone framework (including any related sysctls) and instead
uses DEVFS_CDEVPRIV(9) to handle device opening, channel allocation and
audio routing. This results in a significant reduction in code size as
well as complexity.
Behavior that is preserved:
- hw.snd.basename_clone.
- Exclusive access of an audio device (i.e VCHANs disabled).
- Multiple processes can read from/write to the device.
- A device can only be opened as many times as the maximum allowed
channel number (see SND_MAXHWCHAN in pcm/sound.h).
- OSSv4 compatibility aliases are preserved.
Behavior changes:
Only one /dev/dspX device node is created (on attach) for each audio
device, as opposed to the current /dev/dspX.Y devices created by
snd_clone. According to the sound(4) man page, devices are not meant to
be opened through /dev/dspX.Y anyway, so it is best if we do not create
device nodes for them in the first place. As a result of this, modify
dsp_oss_audioinfo() to print /dev/dspX in the "ai->devnode", instead of
/dev/dspX.Y.

As mentioned in zpoolprops(7), on some SSDs, it may not be desirable to
use ZFS autotrim because a large number of trim requests can degrade
disk performance; instead, the pool should be manually trimmed at
regular intervals.
Add a new daily periodic script for this purpose, 801.trim-zfs. If
enabled (daily_trim_zfs_enable=YES; the default is NO), it will run a
'zpool trim' operation on all online pools, or on the pools listed in
'daily_trim_zfs_pools'.
The trim is not started if the pool is degraded (which matches the
behaviour of the existing 800.scrub-zfs script) or if a trim is already
running on that pool. Having autotrim enabled does not inhibit the
periodic trim; it's sometimes desirable to run periodic trims even with
autotrim enabled, because autotrim can elide trims for very small
regions.
