- Add a lot of missing selinit() and seldestroy() calls.
- Merge selwakeup() and selnotify() calls into a single selnotify().
- Add an additional 'events' argument to selnotify() call. It will
indicate which event (POLL_IN, POLL_OUT, etc) happen. If unknown,
zero may be used.
Note: please pass appropriate value of 'events' where possible.
Proposed on: <tech-kern>
- Reduce available SPL levels for hardware devices to none, vm, sched, high.
- Acquire kernel_lock only for interrupts at IPL_VM.
- Implement threaded soft interrupts.
error = (cmd == SIOCADDMULTI) ?
ether_addmulti(ifr, &sc->sc_ec) :
ether_delmulti(ifr, &sc->sc_ec);
if (error == ENETRESET) {
to this,
if ((error = ether_ioctl(ifp, cmd, data)) == ENETRESET) {
which does the same thing.
(A bazillion is a very large number. This seems to make the i386
ALL kernel smaller by 3kB to 4kB.)
Use ifreq_getaddr() twice in es(4).
Whitespace nits.
identify sockaddr_dl abuse that remains in the kernel, especially
the potential for overwriting memory past the end of a sockaddr_dl
with, e.g., memcpy(LLADDR(), ...).
need to understand the locking around that field. Instead of setting
B_ERROR, set b_error instead. b_error is 'owned' by whoever completes
the I/O request.
- rather than embedding bufq_state in driver softc,
have a pointer to the former.
- move bufq related functions from kern/subr_disk.c to kern/subr_bufq.c.
- rename method to strategy for consistency.
- move some definitions which don't need to be exposed to the rest of kernel
from sys/bufq.h to sys/bufq_impl.h.
(is it better to move it to kern/ or somewhere?)
- fix some obvious breakage in dev/qbus/ts.c. (not tested)
use from checking the proc's uid to suser(9), and account for the use of
privileges. Noted by David Holland in PR kern/31126.
Also change this to use the proc argument instead of curproc.
