In conjunction with mount_9p, it enables a NetBSD system running as a VM guest
to mount an exported filesystem by the host via virtio-9p. It exports a 9p
end-point of virtio-9p via a character device file for mount_9p.

from userland via /dev/vhci. Using this, it becomes possible to test and
fuzz the USB stack and all the USB drivers without having the associated
hardware.
The vHCI device has four ports independently addressable.
For each xfer on each port, we create two packets: a setup packet (which
indicates mostly the type of request) and a data packet (which contains
the raw data). These packets are processed by read and write operations
on /dev/vhci: userland poll-reads it to fetch usb_device_request_t
structures, and dispatches the requests depending on bRequest and
bmRequestType.
A few ioctls are available:
VHCI_IOC_GET_INFO - Get the current status
VHCI_IOC_SET_PORT - Choose a vHCI port
VHCI_IOC_USB_ATTACH - Attach a USB device on the current port
VHCI_IOC_USB_DETACH - Detach the USB device on the current port
vHCI has already allowed me to automatically find several bugs in the USB
stack and its drivers.
(like sensor readout) are locked, so that a userland program may interfere with
envsys operation.
To use this you need a program like ipmitool built with OpenIPMI support.
Register cmajor 252 for fbt and 253 for sdt.
Previously the major number was picked randomly and it causes conflicts
with preallocated values for different devices.
The KCOV driver implements collection of code coverage inside the kernel.
It can be enabled on a per process basis from userland, allowing the kernel
program counter to be collected during syscalls triggered by the same
process.
The device is oriented towards kernel fuzzers, in particular syzkaller.
Currently the only supported coverage type is -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc.
The KCOV driver was initially developed in Linux. A driver based on the
same concept was then implemented in FreeBSD and OpenBSD.
Documentation is borrowed from OpenBSD and ATF tests from FreeBSD.
This patch has been prepared by Siddharth Muralee, improved by <maxv>
and polished by myself before importing into the mainline tree.
All ATF tests pass.
provides support for hardware-accelerated virtualization on NetBSD.
It is made of an MI frontend, to which MD backends can be plugged. One
MD backend is implemented, x86-SVM, for x86 AMD CPUs.
We install
/usr/include/dev/nvmm/nvmm.h
/usr/include/dev/nvmm/nvmm_ioctl.h
/usr/include/dev/nvmm/{arch}/nvmm_{arch}.h
And the kernel module. For now, the only architecture where we do that
is amd64 (arch=x86).
NVMM is not enabled by default in amd64-GENERIC, but is instead easily
modloadable.

implementations.
Add the needed conversion for mfi ioctls in COMPAT_LINUX
Allocate a character major number, and create /dev/mfi0 by default
on amd64 and i386.
This allows (along with a hand-created /emul/linux/proc/devices file)
to run the MegaCLI linux binary provided by LSI.
hpcmips defines one in MD majors, but it's not listed in
etc/etc.hpcmips/MAKEDEV.conf, so I assume actual files are never
created in users' filesystems.

- Designed to be fully MP-safe and highly efficient.
- Tables/IP sets (hash or red-black tree) for high performance lookups.
- Stateful filtering and Network Address Port Translation (NAPT).
Framework for application level gateways (ALGs).
- Packet inspection engine called n-code processor - inspired by BPF -
supporting generic RISC-like and specific CISC-like instructions for
common patterns (e.g. IPv4 address matching). See npf_ncode(9) manual.
- Convenient userland utility npfctl(8) with npf.conf(8).
NOTE: This is not yet a fully capable alternative to PF or IPFilter.
Further work (support for binat/rdr, return-rst/return-icmp, common ALGs,
state saving/restoring, logging, etc) is in progress.
Thanks a lot to Matt Thomas for various useful comments and code review.

It will replace azalia(4) after testing.
To use, comment out azalia in your kernel configuration and uncomment the
hdaudio and hdafg lines so it reads:
# Intel High Definition Audio
hdaudio* at pci? dev ? function ?
hdafg* at hdaudiobus?
You should also:
cd /dev
sh MAKEDEV audio
the base NetBSD system. It uses Linux LVM2 tools and our BSD licensed
device-mapper driver.
The device-mapper driver can be used to create virtual block devices which
maps virtual blocks to real with target mapping called target. Currently
these targets are available a linear, zero, error and a snapshot (this is
work in progress and doesn't work yet).
The lvm2tools adds lvm and dmsetup binary to based system, where the lvm
tool is used to manage and administer whole LVM and the dmestup is used to
communicate iwith device-mapper kernel driver. With these tools also
a libdevmapper library is instaled to the base system.
Building of tools and driver is currently disable and can be enabled with
MKLVM=yes in mk.conf. I will add sets lists and rc.d script soon.
