Rename vt(4) vga module to dismiss interference with syscons(4) vga module.
267623 Log:
Remove stale link to deleted vt(4) xboxfb driver.
267624 Log:
syscons(4) and vt(4) can be built together now.
267625 Log:
Allow to disable syscons(4) if "hw.syscons.disable" kenv is set.
267626 Log:
Suspend vt(4) initialization if "kern.vt.disable" kenv is set.
267965 by emaste@ Log:
Use a common tunable to choose between vt(4)/sc(4)
With this change and previous work from ray@ it will be possible to put
both in GENERIC, and have one enabled by default, but allow the other to
be selected via the loader.
(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.
Reported by: Trond Endrestøl
268045 by emaste@ Log:
Add vt(4) to GENERIC and retire the separate VT config
vt(4) and sc(4) can now coexist in the same kernel. To choose the vt
driver, set the loader tunable kern.vty=vt .

Refactor of /dev/random device. 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.

is done correctly in the "unblock" function.

Time to eat crow for me.
I replaced the sx_* locks that Arthur used with regular mutexes;
this turned out the be the wrong thing to do as the locks need to
be sleepable. Revert this folly.

Add YARROW_RNG and FORTUNA_RNG to sys/conf/options.
Add a SYSINIT that forces a reseed during proc0 setup, which happens
fairly late in the boot process.

Debugging. My attempt at EVENTHANDLER(multiuser) was a failure; use
EVENTHANDLER(mountroot) instead.
This means we can't count on /var being present, so something will
need to be done about harvesting /var/db/entropy/... .
Some policy now needs to be sorted out, and a pre-sync cache needs
to be written, but apart from that we are now ready to go.
Over to review.

Looking pretty good; this mostly works now. New code includes:
* Read cached entropy at startup, both from files and from loader(8)
preloaded entropy. Failures are soft, but announced. Untested.
* Use EVENTHANDLER to do above just before we go multiuser. Untested.

Debug run. This now works, except that the "live" sources haven't

SNAPSHOT.
Simplify the malloc pools; We only need one for this device.
Simplify the harvest queue.
Marginally improve the entropy pool hashing, making it a bit faster
in the process.
Connect up the hardware "live" source harvesting. This is simplistic
for now, and will need to be made rate-adaptive.
All of the above passes a compile test but needs to be debugged.

Snapshot. This passes the build test, but has not yet been finished or debugged.
Contains:
* Refactor the hardware RNG CPU instruction sources to feed into
the software mixer. This is unfinished. The actual harvesting needs
to be sorted out. Modified by me (see below).
* Remove 'frac' parameter from random_harvest(). 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. To
follow will be a replacement explicit reseed knob.
* Separate out all the RANDOM_PURE sources into separate harvest
entities. This adds some secuity in the case where more than one
is present.
* Review all the code and fix anything obviously messy or inconsistent.
Address som review concerns while I'm here, like rename the pseudo-rng
to 'dummy'.

Snapshot of current work;
1) Clean up namespace; only use "Yarrow" where it is Yarrow-specific
or close enough to the Yarrow algorithm. For the rest use a neutral
name.
2) Tidy up headers; put private stuff in private places. More could
be done here.
3) Streamline the hashing/encryption; no need for a 256-bit counter;
128 bits will last for long enough.
There are bits of debug code lying around; these will be removed
at a later stage.

1) example (partially humorous random_adaptor, that I call "EXAMPLE")
* It's not meant to be used in a real system, it's there to show how
the basics of how to create interfaces for random_adaptors. 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

- Switch syscons from timeout() to callout_reset_flags() and specify that
precision is not important there -- anything from 20 to 30Hz will be fine.
- Reduce syscons "refresh" rate to 1-2Hz when console is in graphics mode
and there is nothing to do except some polling for keyboard. Text mode
refresh would also be nice to have adaptive, but this change at least
should help laptop users who running X.

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. In the future the semantics may be extended to mean that
the calling thread takes full ownership of the console (e.g. console
output from other threads could be suspended).

patch modifies makesyscalls.sh to prefix all of the non-compatibility
calls (e.g. not linux_, freebsd32_) with sys_ and updates the kernel
entry points and all places in the code that use them. It also
fixes an additional name space collision between the kernel function
psignal and the libc function of the same name by renaming the kernel
psignal kern_psignal(). By introducing this change now we will ease future
MFCs that change syscalls.

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.

This replaces d_mmap() with the d_mmap2() implementation and also
changes the type of offset to vm_ooffset_t.
Purge d_mmap2().
All driver modules will need to be rebuilt since D_VERSION is also
bumped.

xterm and cons25 have some incompatibilities when it comes to escape
sequences for special keys, such as F1 to F12, home, end, etc. Add a new
te_fkeystr() that can be used to override the strings.
scterm-sck won't do anything with this, but scterm-teken will use
teken_get_sequences() to obtain the proper sequence.

- VBE 3.0 says palette format resets to 6-bit mode when video mode changes.
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.
Thus, reinstate the save/load palette functions only for non-VGA compatible
modes regardless of its palette format.
- Let vesa(4) set VESA modes even if vga(4) claims to support it.
- Reset default palette if VESA pixel mode is set initially.
- Fix more style nits.

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.
There are different protocols as well, but this one seems to be most
commonly supported.

"set vesa mode" and higher 16bits of the flag would be the desired mode.
One can now set, for instance, hint.sc.0.flags=0x01680180, which means
that the system should set VESA mode 0x168 upon boot.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
