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.
except the ppbus stuff (which doesn't compile) and ulpt(4) which is
unrelated and can be dealt with separately.
As usual, it comes with related cosmetic changes.
register com_cleanup() as the shutdown hook.
Add a generic suspend routine. Suspend and resume com@isa.
Protect against dereferencing a NULL softc in comioctl().
Destroy both a mutex and a callout in com_detach().
Cosmetic: use aprint_*_dev(). Use PMF_FN_ARGS, PMF_FN_PROTO.
them in the mi "files" file, and remove include statements from md files.
These shouldn't pull in additional kernel code when not in use, so it
shouldn't do any harm except a risk of namespace collisions which
should be easy to fix.
the opportunity to handle an ioctl before generic ifioctl handling
occurs. This will ease extending the kernel and sharing of code
between drivers.
First steps: Make the signature of ifioctl_common() match struct
ifinet->if_ioctl. Convert SIOCSIFCAP and SIOCSIFMTU to the new
ifioctl() regime, throughout the kernel.
Instead of passing the (un)real system call code and syscall table pointer,
just pass the number of arguments - which is what ktrace really wants.
Ride forthcoming 4.99.53
- All three functions are included in the kernel by default.
They call a backend function cpu_in_cksum after possibly
computing the checksum of the pseudo header.
- cpu_in_cksum is the core to implement the one-complement sum.
The default implementation is moderate fast on most platforms
and provides a 32bit accumulator with 16bit addends for L32 platforms
and a 64bit accumulator with 32bit addends for L64 platforms.
It handles edge cases like very large mbuf chains (could happen with
native IPv6 in the future) and provides a good base for new native
implementations.
- Modify i386 and amd64 assembly to use the new interface.
This disables the MD implementations on !x86 until the conversion is
done. For Alpha, the portable version is faster.
had the potential to cause problems prior to 4.99.48 because it called into
the VM system without kernel_lock held.
XXX1 pmap_update() should be waiting for shootdown jobs to complete. It's
not clear how to do that because the shootdowns happen at IPL_VM.
int foo(struct lwp *l, void *v, register_t *retval)
to:
int foo(struct lwp *l, const struct foo_args *uap, register_t *retval)
Fixup compat code to not write into 'uap' and (in some cases) to actually
pass a correctly formatted 'uap' structure with the right name to the
next routine.
A few 'compat' routines that just call standard ones have been deleted.
All the 'compat' code compiles (along with the kernels required to test
build it).
98% done by automated scripts.
- 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.
