can named the same as those on other platforms.
For example, proc:::exec-success, not proc:::exec_success.
Implementation follows the same basic principle as FreeBSD's; add
another field to the SDT_PROBE_DEFINE macro which is the name
as exposed to userland.
I.e. unshare a process its sigacts by creating a new one BUT maintaining all
signal state.
The old code would CLEAR all the signal state. It used to work only due to the
fact that sigactunshare() is only used in execsigs() and the fact that
SIG_DFL was NULL.
debugger (l->l_sigpendset == NULL), using siggetinfo() try to fetch the
siginfo information from l->l_sigpend and then from p->p_sigpend if it
was not found. This allows us to pass siginfo information for traps from
the debugger.
When saving the signal in p->p_xstat, clear it from the pending mask, but
don't remove it from the siginfo queue, so that next time the debugger
delivers it, the original information is found.
When posting a signal from the debugger l->l_sigpendset is not set, so we
use the process pending signal and add it back to the process pending set.
Rename real routines to proc_find() and pgrp_find(), remove PFIND_* flags
and have consistent behaviour. Provide proc_find_raw() for special cases.
Fix memory leak in sysctl_proc_corename().
COMPAT_LINUX: rework ptrace() locking, minimise differences between
different versions per-arch.
Note: while this change adds some formal cosmetics for COMPAT_DARWIN and
COMPAT_IRIX - locking there is utterly broken (for ages).
Fixes PR/43176.
debug threaded live apps: Add an optional lwpid in PT_STEP and PT_CONTINUE to
indicate which lwp to operate on, and implement the glue required to make it
work.
- Avoid atomics in more places.
- Remove the per-descriptor mutex, and just use filedesc_t::fd_lock.
It was only being used to synchronize close, and in any case we needed
to take fd_lock to free the descriptor slot.
- Optimize certain paths for the <NDFDFILE case.
- Sprinkle more comments and assertions.
- Cache more stuff in filedesc_t.
- Fix numerous minor bugs spotted along the way.
- Restructure how the open files array is maintained, for clarity and so
that we can eliminate the membar_consumer() call in fd_getfile(). This is
mostly syntactic sugar; the main functional change is that fd_nfiles now
lives alongside the open file array.
Some measurements with libmicro:
- simple file syscalls are like close() are between 1 to 10% faster.
- some nice improvements, e.g. poll(1000) which is ~50% faster.
signals (i.e. SA_KILL), just if SIGKILL (or SIGCONT). Improve comments.
Make some functions static, remove unused sigrealloc() prototype.
Fixes PR/39814. Similar patch reviewed by <ad>.
There are also sigtimedwait(2) et al. to catch signals without invoking
a signal handler. Fixes PR kern/41076 by Matteo Beccati (the first
test case, where the signal is sent before sigwaitinfo(2) gets called).
into modules. By and large this commit:
- shuffles header files and ifdefs
- splits code out where necessary to be modular
- adds module glue for each of the components
- adds/replaces hooks for things that can be installed at runtime
- make sure that sigput always initializes ksi
- initialize si_code with SI_NOINFO instead of lying (SI_USER)
- if a process is being ktraced, make siginfo available
- always pass the available siginfo to ktrace, even if it has SI_NOINFO
we no longer need to guard against access from hardware interrupt handlers.
Additionally, if cloning a process with CLONE_SIGHAND, arrange to have the
child process share the parent's lock so that signal state may be kept in
sync. Partially addresses PR kern/37437.
proclist_mutex and proclist_lock into a single adaptive mutex (proc_lock).
Implications:
- Inspecting process state requires thread context, so signals can no longer
be sent from a hardware interrupt handler. Signal activity must be
deferred to a soft interrupt or kthread.
- As the proc state locking is simplified, it's now safe to take exit()
and wait() out from under kernel_lock.
- The system spends less time at IPL_SCHED, and there is less lock activity.
