(The previous implementation had separate kern.vt.disable and hw.syscons.disable tunables, and would panic if both drivers were compiled in and neither was explicitly disabled.) 268175 by emaste@ Log: Fix vt(4) detection in kbdcontrol and vidcontrol As sc(4) and vt(4) coexist and are both enabled in GENERIC, the existence of a vt(4) sysctl is not sufficient to determine that vt(4) is in use.

Main points include: * Userland seeding is no longer used. This auto-seeds at boot time on PC/Desktop setups; this may need some tweeking and intelligence from those folks setting up embedded boxes, but the work is believed to be minimal. * An entropy cache is written to /entropy (even during installation) and the kernel uses this at next boot. * An entropy file written to /boot/entropy can be loaded by loader(8) * Hardware sources such as rdrand are fed into Yarrow, and are no longer available raw. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r256240 | des | 2013-10-09 21:14:16 +0100 (Wed, 09 Oct 2013) | 4 lines Add a RANDOM_RWFILE option and hide the entropy cache code behind it.

This was never used and adds extra code for no good reason. * Remove device write entropy harvesting. This provided a weak attack vector, was not very good at bootstrapping the device.

Perhaps it should belong in a manual page 2) Move probe.c's functionality in to random_adaptors.c * rename random_ident_hardware() to random_adaptor_choose() 3) Introduce a new way to choose (or select) random_adaptors via tunable "rngs_want" It's a list of comma separated names of adaptors, ordered by preferences. I.e.: rngs_want="yarrow,rdrand" Such setting would cause yarrow to be preferred to rdrand. If neither of them are available (or registered), then system will default to something reasonable (currently yarrow). If yarrow is not present, then we fall back to the adaptor that's first on the list of registered adaptors. 4) Introduce a way where RNGs can play a role of entropy source. This is mostly useful for HW rngs. The way I envision this is that every HW RNG will use this functionality by default. Functionality to disable this is also present. I have an example of how to use this in random_adaptor_example.c (see modload event, and init function) 5) fix kern.random.adaptors from kern.random.adaptors: yarrowpanicblock to kern.random.adaptors: yarrow,panic,block 6) add kern.random.active_adaptor to indicate currently selected adaptor: root@freebsd04:~ # sysctl kern.random.active_adaptor kern.random.active_adaptor: yarrow # Submitted by: Arthur Mesh <arthurmesh@gmail.com> Submitted by: Dag-Erling Smørgrav <des@FreeBSD.org>, Arthur Mesh <arthurmesh@gmail.com> Reviewed by: des@FreeBSD.org Approved by: re (delphij) Approved by: secteam (des,delphij) Notes: svn path=/stable/10/; revision=256381

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the future we may want to perform the switch even if the console is currently in the graphics mode by trying to reset the video adapter first (e.g. by executing vesa/vga bios post). That would probably require some sort of a one-way flag as returning the control of the console back to the interrupted application most likely would result in a mess.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At the moment grab and ungrab methods of all console drivers are no-ops. Current intended meaning of the calls is that the kernel takes control of console input.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | accessible: (1) Always compile in support for breaking into the debugger if options KDB is present in the kernel. (2) Disable both by default, but allow them to be enabled via tunables and sysctls debug.kdb.break_to_debugger and debug.kdb.alt_break_to_debugger. (3) options BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER and options ALT_BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER continue to behave as before -- only now instead of compiling in break-to-debugger support, they change the default values of the above sysctls to enable those features by default. Current kernel configurations should, therefore, continue to behave as expected. (4) Migrate alternative break-to-debugger state machine logic out of individual device drivers into centralised KDB code. This has a number of upsides, but also one downside: it's now tricky to release sio spin locks when entering the debugger, so we don't. However, similar logic does not exist in other device drivers, including uart. (5) dcons requires some special handling; unlike other console types, it allows overriding KDB's own debugger selection, so we need a new interface to KDB to allow that to work. GENERIC kernels in -CURRENT will now support break-to-debugger as long as appropriate boot/run-time options are set, which should improve the debuggability of BETA kernels significantly.

We simply set 8-bit mode when we switch modes if the adapter supports it. - VBE 3.0 also says if the mode is not VGA compatible, we must use VBE function to save/restore palette. Otherwise, VGA function may be used.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now if applications want to use the mouse on the command line, they use sysmouse(4) and install a signal handler in the kernel to deliver signals when mouse events arrive. This conflicts with my plan to change to TERM=xterm, so implement proper VT200-style mouse input. Because mouse input is now streamed through the TTY, it means you can now SSH to another system on the console and use the mouse there as well. The disadvantage of the VT200 mouse protocol, is that it doesn't seem to generate events when moving the cursor. Only when pressing and releasing mouse buttons.

* Last minute TTY API change: remove mutex argument from tty_alloc().Ed Schouten2009-05-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | I don't want people to override the mutex when allocating a TTY. It has to be there, to keep drivers like syscons happy. So I'm creating a tty_alloc_mutex() which can be used in those cases. tty_alloc_mutex() should eventually be removed. The advantage of this approach, is that we can just remove a function, without breaking the regular API in the future. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=193018
* Turn consolectl into a simple device node, not a TTY.Ed Schouten2009-05-151-20/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Apart from the 16 virtual terminals, Syscons allocates two device nodes that should not really be TTYs, even though they are. One of them is consolectl. In RELENG_7 and before, these device nodes are used in single user mode. After I simplified input path, we only use this device node to call ioctl() on (moused, Xorg, vidcontrol). When you call ioctl() on consolectl, it will behave the same as being called on the first window. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=192143

* Make a 1:1 mapping between syscons stats and terminal emulators.Ed Schouten2009-03-101-32/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After I imported libteken into the source tree, I noticed syscons didn't store the cursor position inside the terminal emulator, but inside the virtual terminal stat. This is not very useful, because when you implement more complex forms of line wrapping, you need to keep track of more state than just the cursor position. Because the kernel messages didn't share the same terminal emulator as ttyv0, this caused a lot of strange things, like kernel messages being misplaced and a missing notification to resize the terminal emulator for kernel messages never to be resized when using vidcontrol. This patch just removes kernel_console_ts and adds a special parameter to te_puts to determine whether messages should be printed using regular colors or the ones for kernel messages.

* Replace syscons terminal renderer by a new renderer that uses libteken.Ed Schouten2009-01-011-10/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some time ago I started working on a library called libteken, which is terminal emulator. It does not buffer any screen contents, but only keeps terminal state, such as cursor position, attributes, etc. It should implement all escape sequences that are implemented by the cons25 terminal emulator, but also a fair amount of sequences that are present in VT100 and xterm. A lot of random notes, which could be of interest to users/developers: - Even though I'm leaving the terminal type set to `cons25', users can do experiments with placing `xterm-color' in /etc/ttys. Because we only implement a subset of features of xterm, this may cause artifacts. We should consider extending libteken, because in my opinion xterm is the way to go. Some missing features: - Keypad application mode (DECKPAM) - Character sets (SCS) - libteken is filled with a fair amount of assertions, but unfortunately we cannot go into the debugger anymore if we fail them. I've done development of this library almost entirely in userspace. In sys/dev/syscons/teken there are two applications that can be helpful when debugging the code: - teken_demo: a terminal emulator that can be started from a regular xterm that emulates a terminal using libteken. This application can be very useful to debug any rendering issues. - teken_stress: a stress testing application that emulates random terminal output. libteken has literally survived multiple terabytes of random input. - libteken also includes support for UTF-8, but unfortunately our input layer and font renderer don't support this. If users want to experiment with UTF-8 support, they can enable `TEKEN_UTF8' in teken.h. If you recompile your kernel or the teken_demo application, you can hold some nice experiments. - I've left PC98 the way it is right now. The PC98 platform has a custom syscons renderer, which supports some form of localised input. Maybe we should port PC98 to libteken by the time syscons supports UTF-8? - I've removed the `dumb' terminal emulator. It has been broken for years. It hasn't survived the `struct proc' -> `struct thread' conversion. - To prevent confusion among people that want to hack on libteken: unlike syscons, the state machines that parse the escape sequences are machine generated. This means that if you want to add new escape sequences, you have to add an entry to the `sequences' file. This will cause new entries to be added to `teken_state.h'. - Any rendering artifacts that didn't occur prior to this commit are by accident. They should be reported to me, so I can fix them.

* Disable processing of output data after disabling scroll lock by force.Ed Schouten2008-08-311-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The syscons code disabled scroll lock inside sc_cnputs() if it's going to print a system message. The code currently wants to process any TTY output data as well, but we cannot do this, because the TTY lock is a sleep mutex, while cnputs() picks up a spin mutex. Disable the code for now. It solves a panic when a console message is printed while scroll lock is enabled. One solution would be to initialize a task structure here. Reported by: Paul B.

* Make syscons(4) use ttyv0 instead of consolectl as its primary window.Ed Schouten2008-08-241-11/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I was hacking on uart(4) to make it work with the MPSAFE TTY layer, I noticed there was a difference between the way syscons and uart work with respect to consoles: - The uart(4) driver sets cn_name to the corresponding ttyu%r node, which means init(8) (which opens /dev/console) will have its output redirected to /dev/ttyu%r. After /etc/rc is done, it can spawn a getty on that device node as well. - Syscons used a little different approach. Apart from the /dev/ttyv%r nodes, it creates a /dev/consolectl node. This device node is used by moused and others to deliver their data, but for some reason it also acts as a TTY, which shares its stat structure with ttyv0. This device node is used as a console (run conscontrol). There are a couple advantages of this approach: - Because we use two different TTY's to represent the 0th syscons window, we allocate two sets of TTY buffers. Even if you don't use /dev/consolectl after the system has booted (systems that don't run moused), it seems the buffers are still allocated. - We have to apply an evil hack to redirect input to /dev/consolectl. Because each window (stat) is associated not associated with one TTY, syscons solves this by redirecting all input to closed TTY's to consolectl. This means that opening /dev/ttyv0 while in single user mode will probably cause strange things to happen with respect to keyboard input redirection. The first patch that I discussed with philip@ turned consolectl into a symlink to ttyv0, but this was not a good idea, because in theory we would want consolectl to be a simple device node, which contains all the `privileged' ioctl()'s. Apart from that, it didn't work, because each time /dev/ttyv0 got revoked, moused also lost its descriptor to deliver input, which meant you had to plug out/in your mouse to make it work again. This version just leaves the consolectl device the way it is. It can still be used to write output to ttyv0, but it can no longer receive any input. In my opinion this patch is not a complete solution, but it's already a step in the good direction. It would allow us to turn consolectl into a special (non-TTY) device node in the far future. It shaves off 15 KB of wasted TTY buffer space. Discussed with: philip Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=182117
* Integrate the new MPSAFE TTY layer to the FreeBSD operating system.Ed Schouten2008-08-201-170/+155
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The last half year I've been working on a replacement TTY layer for the FreeBSD kernel. The new TTY layer was designed to improve the following: - Improved driver model: The old TTY layer has a driver model that is not abstract enough to make it friendly to use. A good example is the output path, where the device drivers directly access the output buffers. This means that an in-kernel PPP implementation must always convert network buffers into TTY buffers. If a PPP implementation would be built on top of the new TTY layer (still needs a hooks layer, though), it would allow the PPP implementation to directly hand the data to the TTY driver. - Improved hotplugging: With the old TTY layer, it isn't entirely safe to destroy TTY's from the system. This implementation has a two-step destructing design, where the driver first abandons the TTY. After all threads have left the TTY, the TTY layer calls a routine in the driver, which can be used to free resources (unit numbers, etc). The pts(4) driver also implements this feature, which means posix_openpt() will now return PTY's that are created on the fly. - Improved performance: One of the major improvements is the per-TTY mutex, which is expected to improve scalability when compared to the old Giant locking. Another change is the unbuffered copying to userspace, which is both used on TTY device nodes and PTY masters. Upgrading should be quite straightforward. Unlike previous versions, existing kernel configuration files do not need to be changed, except when they reference device drivers that are listed in UPDATING.
