Gone are the old kern_sysctl(), cpu_sysctl(), hw_sysctl(),
vfs_sysctl(), etc, routines, along with sysctl_int() et al. Now all
nodes are registered with the tree, and nodes can be added (or
removed) easily, and I/O to and from the tree is handled generically.
Since the nodes are registered with the tree, the mapping from name to
number (and back again) can now be discovered, instead of having to be
hard coded. Adding new nodes to the tree is likewise much simpler --
the new infrastructure handles almost all the work for simple types,
and just about anything else can be done with a small helper function.
All existing nodes are where they were before (numerically speaking),
so all existing consumers of sysctl information should notice no
difference.
PS - I'm sorry, but there's a distinct lack of documentation at the
moment. I'm working on sysctl(3/8/9) right now, and I promise to
watch out for buses.
While we are here, try to tag machine dependent functions in header files.
also transformed darwin_ppc_*_state into mach_ppc_*_state, as this is
what they really are (COMPAT_DARWIN is on the top of COMPAT_MACH, not the
other way around)
Remove p_raslock and rename p_lwplock p_lock (one lock is enough).
Simplify window test when adding a ras and correct test on VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS.
Avoid unpredictable branch in i386 locore.S
(pad fields left in struct proc to avoid kernel bump)
containing signal posting, kernel-exit handling and sa_upcall processing.
XXX the pc532, sparc, sparc64 and vax ports should have their
XXX userret() code rearranged to use this.
Use <powerpc/oea/bat.h> exclusively and remove <machine/bat.h> and
<powerpc/bat.h>. Remove unneeded <machine/cpufunc.h>. To insure
1:1 correspondence of <powerpc/FOO.h> to <machine/FOO.h> include
"../../powerpc/include/Makefile" in "arch/FOO/include/Makefile".
Incororpate <byte_swap.h> into <bswap.h> and then byte_swap.h
* _UC_MACHINE_PC() - access the program counter
* _UC_MACHINE_INTRV() - access the integer return value register
* _UC_MACHINE_SET_PC() - set the program counter (this requires
special handling on some platforms).
Right now the only flag is used to indicate if a ksiginfo_t is a
result of a trap. Add a predicate macro to test for this flag.
* Add initialization macros for ksiginfo_t's.
* Add accssor macro for ksi_trap. Expands to 0 if the ksiginfo_t was
not the result of a trap. This matches the sigcontext trapcode semantics.
* In kpsendsig(), use KSI_TRAP_P() to select the lwp that gets the signal.
Inspired by Matthias Drochner's fix to kpsendsig(), but correctly handles
the case of non-trap-generated signals that have a > 0 si_code.
This patch fixes a signal delivery problem with threaded programs noted by
Matthias Drochner on tech-kern.
