if we're not going to use the result anyway.
XXX: not necessarily the best fix, but better than crashing *early*
boot due to too-early nanotime() calls.
XXX: pullup.
defined in ddb/db_panic.c and declared in ddb/ddbvar.h. No functional
change.
The copyright years in db_panic.c are the years in which changes were
made to the code that has now been moved to db_panic.c. No pre-NetBSD
copyright notice is needed because revision 1.12 of subr_prf.c had only
the trivial "#ifdef DDB \\ Debugger(); \\ #endif"
sys/stdarg.h and expect compiler to provide proper builtins, defaulting
to the GCC interface. lint still has a special fallback.
Reduce abuse of _BSD_VA_LIST_ by defining __va_list by default and
derive va_list as required by standards.
well have triggered the recursive panic.
Fix the comment for panic() to reflect now-current reality: the code
was already changed never to sync() on panic(), now we avoid dumping
core on a recursive panic.
of transitions to IPL_HIGH from lower IPLs. SPLDEBUG is only available
on i386 and Xen kernels, today.
'options SPLDEBUG' adds instrumentation to spllower() and splraise() as
well as routines to start/stop debugging and to record IPL transitions:
spldebug_start(), spldebug_stop(), spldebug_raise(), spldebug_lower().
proc_enterpgrp() with proc_leavepgrp() to free process group and/or
session without proc_lock held.
- Rename SESSHOLD() and SESSRELE() to to proc_sesshold() and
proc_sessrele(). The later releases proc_lock now.
Quick OK by <ad>.
magic libc symbol. This also allows to bid farewell to subr_prf2.c
and merge the contents back to subr_prf.c. The host kernel bridging
is now done via rumpuser_putchar().
- It doesn't work and a dead system that can't be reset from the console is
worse than a system that has painced and rebooted. If you can make it work
reliably please do so.
- If the system is paniced there is every reason to suspect VM structures
and the contents of the buffer cache.
DragonflyBSD uses the crit names for something quite different.
- Add a kpreempt_disabled function for diagnostic assertions.
- Add inline versions of kpreempt_enable/kpreempt_disable for primitives.
- Make some more changes for preemption safety to the x86 pmap.
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.
