Add a facility in the CAM error handling code to retry selection timeouts.
If the client requests that the error recovery code retry a selection
timeout, it will be retried after half a second. The delay is to give the
device time to recover.

For most of these drivers, I only added selection timeout retries where
they were also retrying unit attention type errors. The sa(4) driver calls
saerror() in a number of places, but most of them don't request retrying
unit attentions.

Also, bump the default minimum CD changer timeout from 2 to 5 seconds and
the maximum timeout from 10 to 15 seconds. Some Pioneer changers seem to
have trouble with the shorter timeout.

Add a prioritization field to the devstat_add_entry() call so that
peripheral drivers can determine where in the devstat(9) list they are
inserted.

This requires recompilation of libdevstat, systat, vmstat, rpc.rstatd, and
any ports that depend on the devstat code, since the size of the devstat
structure has changed. The devstat version number has been incremented as
well to reflect the change.

This sorts devices in the devstat list in "more interesting" to "less
interesting" order. So, for instance, da devices are now more important
than floppy drives, and so will appear before floppy drives in the default
output from systat, iostat, vmstat, etc.

The order of devices is, for now, kept in a central table in devicestat.h.
If individual drivers were able to make a meaningful decision on what
priority they should be at attach time, we could consider splitting the
priority information out into the various drivers. For now, though, they
have no way of knowing that, so it's easier to put them in an easy to find
table.

Also, move the checkversion() call in vmstat(8) to a more logical place.

Thanks to Bruce and David O'Brien for suggestions, for reviewing this, and
for putting up with the long time it has taken me to commit it. Bruce did
object somewhat to the central priority table (he would rather the
priorities be distributed in each driver), so his objection is duly noted
here.

Fix a problem with the way we handled device invalidation when attaching
to a device failed.

In theory, the same steps that happen when we get an AC_LOST_DEVICE async
notification should have been taken when a driver fails to attach. In
practice, that wasn't the case.

This only affected the da, cd and ch drivers, but the fix affects all
peripheral drivers.

There were several possible problems:
- In the da driver, we didn't remove the peripheral's softc from the da
driver's linked list of softcs. Once the peripheral and softc got
removed, we'd get a kernel panic the next time the timeout routine
called dasendorderedtag().
- In the da, cd and possibly ch drivers, we didn't remove the
peripheral's devstat structure from the devstat queue. Once the
peripheral and softc were removed, this could cause a panic if anyone
tried to access device statistics. (one component of the linked list
wouldn't exist anymore)
- In the cd driver, we didn't take the peripheral off the changer run
queue if it was scheduled to run. In practice, it's highly unlikely,
and maybe impossible that the peripheral would have been on the
changer run queue at that stage of the probe process.

The fix is:
- Add a new peripheral callback function (the "oninvalidate" function)
that is called the first time cam_periph_invalidate() is called for a
peripheral.

- Create new foooninvalidate() routines for each peripheral driver. This
routine is always called at splsoftcam(), and contains all the stuff
that used to be in the AC_LOST_DEVICE case of the async callback
handler.

- Move the devstat cleanup call to the destructor/cleanup routines, since
some of the drivers do I/O in their close routines.

- Make sure that when we're flushing the buffer queue, we traverse it at
splbio().

- Add a check for the invalid flag in the pt driver's open routine.

Modify the changer driver so it can handle (hopefully!) changers that need
block descriptors enabled on mode sense commands.

Basically, we try sending a mode sense with block descriptors disabled (the
previous default), and if it fails, we try sending the mode sense with
block descriptors enabled. If that works, we note that in a runtime quirk
entry, so we don't bother disabling block descriptors again for the device.

This problem was first reported by Chris Jones <cjones@honors.montana.edu>
on one of the NetBSD lists, but I'd imagine that some FreeBSD users would
have run into it eventually as well, since our changer driver is derived
form the NetBSD changer driver.

Also, change some of the probe logic so that we do the right thing in the
case of a failure to attach.

MFp4: Large set of CAM inprovements.

- Unify bus reset/probe sequence. Whenever bus attached at boot or later,
CAM will automatically reset and scan it. It allows to remove duplicate
code from many drivers.
- Any bus, attached before CAM completed it's boot-time initialization,
will equally join to the process, delaying boot if needed.
- New kern.cam.boot_delay loader tunable should help controllers that
are still unable to register their buses in time (such as slow USB/
PCCard/ CardBus devices), by adding one more event to wait on boot.
- To allow synchronization between different CAM levels, concept of
requests priorities was extended. Priorities now split between several
"run levels". Device can be freezed at specified level, allowing higher
priority requests to pass. For example, no payload requests allowed,
until PMP driver enable port. ATA XPT negotiate transfer parameters,
periph driver configure caching and so on.
- Frozen requests are no more counted by request allocation scheduler.
It fixes deadlocks, when frozen low priority payload requests occupying
slots, required by higher levels to manage theit execution.
- Two last changes were holding proper ATA reinitialization and error
recovery implementation. Now it is done: SATA controllers and Port
Multipliers now implement automatic hot-plug and should correctly
recover from timeouts and bus resets.
- Improve SCSI error recovery for devices on buses without automatic sense
reporting, such as ATAPI or USB. For example, it allows CAM to wait, while
CD drive loads disk, instead of immediately return error status.
- Decapitalize diagnostic messages and make them more readable and sensible.
- Teach PMP driver to limit maximum speed on fan-out ports.
- Make boot wait for PMP scan completes, and make rescan more reliable.
- Fix pass driver, to return CCB to user level in case of error.
- Increase number of retries in cd driver, as device may return several UAs.

Add a driver for AHCI-compliant hardware.

Add a maxio field to CAM so that drivers can advertise their max
I/O capability. Modify various drivers so that they are insulated
from the value of MAXPHYS.

The new ATA/SATA code supports AHCI-compliant hardware, and will override
the classic ATA driver if it is loaded as a module at boot time or compiled
into the kernel. The stack now support NCQ (tagged queueing) for increased
performance on modern SATA drives. It also supports port multipliers.

ATA drives are accessed via 'ada' device nodes. ATAPI drives are
accessed via 'cd' device nodes. They can all be enumerated and manipulated
via camcontrol, just like SCSI drives. SCSI commands are not translated to
their ATA equivalents; ATA native commands are used throughout the entire
stack, including camcontrol. See the camcontrol manpage for further
details. Testing this code may require that you update your fstab, and
possibly modify your BIOS to enable AHCI functionality, if available.

This code is very experimental at the moment. The userland ABI/API has
changed, so applications will need to be recompiled. It may change
further in the near future. The 'ada' device name may also change as
more infrastructure is completed in this project. The goal is to
eventually put all CAM busses and devices until newbus, allowing for
interesting topology and management options.

Few functional changes will be seen with existing SCSI/SAS/FC drivers,
though the userland ABI has still changed. In the future, transports
specific modules for SAS and FC may appear in order to better support
the topologies and capabilities of these technologies.

The modularization of CAM and the addition of the ATA/SATA modules is
meant to break CAM out of the mold of being specific to SCSI, letting it
grow to be a framework for arbitrary transports and protocols. It also
allows drivers to be written to support discrete hardware without
jeopardizing the stability of non-related hardware. While only an AHCI
driver is provided now, a Silicon Image driver is also in the works.
Drivers for ICH1-4, ICH5-6, PIIX, classic IDE, and any other hardware
is possible and encouraged. Help with new transports is also encouraged.
