may turn into exceptions on Mach: a small message sent by the kernel to
the task that requested the exception.
On Darwin, when an exception is sent, no signal can be delivered.
TODO: more exceptions: arithmetic, bad instructions, emulation, s
software, and syscalls (plain and Mach). There is also RPC alert, but
I have no idea about what it is.
While we are there, remove some user ktrace in notification code, and add
a NODEF qualifier in mach_services.master: it will be used for notifications
and exceptions, where the kernel is always client and never server: we
don't want the message to be displayed as "unimplemented xxx" in kdump (thus
UNIMPL is not good), but we don't want to generate the server prototype
(therefore, STD is not good either). NODEF will declare it normally in the
name tables without creating the prototype.
local-loopback (lo0). As posted for review on tech-kern 2003-18-09,
with a long comment explaining (one of) the deadlock scenarios.
I've used this since shortly after 2002-09-12-, without noticing
performance degradataion or instability for non-loopback mounts.
- tweak some attach messages
- establish interrupt after all dma resouces are successfully allocated
- wrap an assertion with #ifdef DIAGNOSTIC
- assume NCRCFG2_FE bit is always enabled
- call bus_dmamap_sync for mdldmap at POSTWRITE for consistency
- pass proper dmamapsize for mdldmap
crossing boundary in iommu_dvmamap_load().
Fixes E2BIG error on dmamap with smaller boundary size than maxxfersize
(which is used by recent changed pcscp(4)).
While here, some KNF around debug printf etc.
the functionality of ixp425_bs_tag.
- Add missing stream_{read,write}_1 ops to ixp425_bs_tag.
- Re-work the delay() implementation to use the free-running Time-
Stamp counter. This removes the need to bootstrap TMR0 early on.
bswapl, and bf_cbc.S uses it. Unfortunately, this means that GENERIC
will no longer use the asm code -- though it will still use the asm
for the basic Blowfish transform. This won't slow down the KAME IPsec
(since it rolls its own CBC) but may slow down fast-ipsec in kernels
that have I386_CPU defined.
Not tested on 795[56], but compiles and matches FreeBSD-tested diffs.

will have unimplemented services showing their names in ktrace
Add a new generated file with only service id and name, which will
be included by kdump to display services names.
This removes the need for using the user ktrace facility for services names.
- factor out disksubr.c between sun3, sparc and sparc64. Keep the sun3
groveling code to find a NetBSD disklabel in the first sector (so that it
can find a label at the old sun3 LABELOFFSET) as a fallback is not
label at LABELOFFSET, or sun label is present.
- Fix the sun3 LABELOFFSET (was 64, but the kernel wrote the NetBSD label at
128)
- Make next68k disksubr.c always write a next-compatible disklabel.
- remove #ifdef __sparc__ hack from disklabel(8), and change it to issue
a DIOCWDINFO after writing the disklabel to the raw partition in the
-r/-I case (so that the kernel can convert the label if needed).
the idle loop. They seem to have gone AWOL sometime in the past.
Fixes port-arm/23390.
- While here, tidy up the idle loop.
- Add a cheap DIAGNOSTIC check for run queue sanity.
returns non-zero and we want to shortcut out. This avoids a bogus pagefault
condition being detected in sa_switch().
Many thanks to Christian Limpach for finding this, obviating my band-aid
patch to kern_sa.c (posted on tech-kern).
the call to data_abort_fixup() as the fixup routines also try to
de-reference the fault pc.
- If a fault came from kernel mode, and the fault address looks to be in
the kernel's address space, and pcb_onfault is *set*, check the
instruction which caused the fault. If it's LDR{B,}T or STR{B,}T
then one of the copy in/out routines is trying to read/write a
kernel address with the wrong privilege. If that address is actually
mapped, we could end up in an infinite loop because we failed to
notice that it's really a 'user mode' access. Yay for "crashme".
I suspect this also fixes PR port-arm/23052.
Note: This *could* be fixed by adding sanity checks to copyin et al,
but that would add extra overhead to the non-error path...
- Fix a couple of __predict_false cases.
to determine if a fault is read or write, make sure tf->tf_pc is 32-bit
aligned before dereferencing it.
Otherwise, deliver an illegal instruction signal to the process. We don't
support execution of Thumb code at this time.
This reloads the entire EEPROM, not just the MAC address, which can
cause problems for the host PCI bus under certain circumstances. The
chip already loads the EEPROM at powerup/reset anyway.
XXX: This probably applies to the other Rhine variants too, but I don't
have a data sheet to confirm this behaviour.
1) make sure Mach servers will not work on data beyond the end of the
request message buffer.
2) make sure that on copying out the reply message buffer, we will not
leak kernel data located after the buffer.
3) make sure that the server will not overwrite memory beyond the end
of the reply message buffer. That check is the responsability of the
server, there is just a DIAGNOSTIC test to check everything is in
good shape. All currently implemented servers in NetBSD have been
modified to check for this condition
While we are here, build the mach services table (formerly in mach_namemap.c)
and the services prototypes automatically from mach_services.master, just
as this is done for system calls.
The next step would be to fold the message formats in the mach_services.master
file, but this tends to be difficult, as some messages are quite long and
complex.
* if loading from cdrom, assume we're performing an install and
fix up bootpath/kernel to load the proper install kernel.
* maximum filename length in volume header is eight characters.
Change boot.elf to ip2xboot, boot.ip32 to ip3xboot, and boot
to aoutboot (which matches kernel naming scheme as well).
copyin() or copyout().
uvm_useracc() tells us whether the mapping permissions allow access to
the desired part of an address space, and many callers assume that
this is the same as knowing whether an attempt to access that part of
the address space will succeed. however, access to user space can
fail for reasons other than insufficient permission, most notably that
paging in any non-resident data can fail due to i/o errors. most of
the callers of uvm_useracc() make the above incorrect assumption. the
rest are all misguided optimizations, which optimize for the case
where an operation will fail. we'd rather optimize for operations
succeeding, in which case we should just attempt the access and handle
failures due to insufficient permissions the same way we handle i/o
errors. since there appear to be no good uses of uvm_useracc(), we'll
just remove it.
(1) split the single list of pages allocated to a pool into three lists:
completely full, partially full, and completely empty.
there is no longer any need to traverse any list looking for a
certain type of page.
(2) replace the 8-element hash table for out-of-page page headers
with a splay tree.
these two changes (together with the recent enhancements to the wait code)
give us linear scaling for a fork+exit microbenchmark.
mbuf chains which are recycled (e.g., ICMP reflection, loopback
interface). A consensus was reached that such recycled packets should
behave (more-or-less) the same way if a new chain had been allocated
and the contents copied to that chain.
Some packet tags may in future be marked as "persistent" (e.g., for
mandatory access controls) and should persist across such deletion.
NetBSD as yet hos no persistent tags, so m_tag_delete_nonpersistent()
just deletes all tags. This should not be relied upon.
This should fix PR 23418 which was also reported by Thomas Klausner and
Ian Fry (who also provided core dumps for analysis - thanks!).
Also g/c sa_yieldcall since it's now safe to put LWPs back into the cache.
Also return stacks in failure case.
of the sibling list so that find_stopped_child can be optimised to avoid
traversing the entire sibling list - helps when a process has a lot of
children.
- Modify locking in pfind() and pgfind() to that the caller can rely on the
result being valid, allow caller to request that zombies be findable.
- Rename pfind() to p_find() to ensure we break binary compatibility.
- Remove svr4_pfind since p_find willnow do the job.
- Modify some of the SMP locking of the proc lists - signals are still stuffed.
Welcome to 1.6ZF
(it only allowed to boot an nfs /netbsd automatically)
To make it work for people who can't tell the DHCP server to pass
the right kernel file to pxeboot, without losing flexibility for
people who can, do the following:
Use the filename given by the DHCP server if it contains a ":". A ":"
was already used to seperate filesystem and filename, so we don't
lose anything. Otoh, a path to pxeboot usually doesn't contain a ":",
so it should still work if we got the old pxeboot filename again.
Add screen types suitable for PAL displays, and fix typos
in older screen type names; reported by Gunther Nikl.
amidisplay.4:
Document the new screen types and add some misc information.
- process pending queries in EcUnlock() to close a race window.
now there's no need to do polling for EcQuery().
- reorder inline functions and other prototypes so that
the formers can get needed prototypes.
- add missing prototypes.
install media and the kernels (and sysinst) will still run on a 16MB system.
(They haven't run on an 8MB system for a while - might affect 12MB though.)
The additional space in the root filesystem lets sysinst core dump properly!
* erratum: disable the nocrc RX bit, as it may cause problems on the 570{1-4}.
adjust the length of the incoming packet accordingly to trim it.
* the 5704 has a smaller MBUF_POOL, so set a smaller value
Local change:
* Pass the autoneg force flag to mii_attach. Some PHYs need to be kicked
out of their falsely autoneged 10baseT state with this.
The code was assuming that interface addresses are removed one-by-one.
With IPv6 and multicasts, removal of one address can remove other
addresses as side effect, which caused accesses of free()d memory.
in_ifaddrhead. Recent changes in struct names caused a namespace
collision in fast-ipsec, which are most cleanly fixed by using
"in_ifaddrhead" as the listhead name.
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)
While we are there, resolved another mystery: the unallocated port described
in the comment removed by this commit was in fact allocated by mach_task_pid().
sysctl. Add a protocol-independent sysctl handler to show the per-protocol
"struct ifq' statistics. Add IP(v4) specific call to the handler.
Other protocols can show their per-protocol input statistics by
allocating a sysclt node and calling sysctl_ifq() with their own struct ifq *.
As posted to tech-kern plus improvements/cleanup suggested by Andrew Brown.
- defopt stats and settings, removing their definitions from the files
- make code compile by eliminating multicharacter constants!?! and rearranging
variable declarations so they are defined before used!?!
- help gcc with uninitialized variables
