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(), ...).
Use sockaddr_dl_setaddr() in a few places.
(semu + seminfo.semmnu) is wrong, because the type of semu is int*.
You could fix the offset ((char *)semu + seminfo.semusz), but simply
putting the condvars first is more clear.
lwp_exit() before suspending. In such case, LWP might be already freed after
cv_wait_sig() and checking the list of LWPs via lwp_find() is necessary.
Possible problem catched by Andrew Doran.
checking for a readonly lookup. This shouldn't make a difference
now, though, as the only RDONLY lookup is done by getcwd(), and
that a) doesn't create files b) calls LOOKUP directly anyway.
Also, fix comment I managed to miss in the previous commit (I didn't
expect the same comment to be there twice).
it possible to get the pid, euid and egid of the process at the remote
end at the time it did bind() or connect().
Add a new libc function, getpeereid() to easily get at the euid and egid.
As a consequence, bump libc's minor number.
Document the LOCAL_PEEREID socket option in unix(4).
Based on contribution by Arne H. Juul, minor modifications by myself.
introduce vrele2(), which allows to release vnodes the way lfs
sometimes wants it:
+ without calling inactive
+ inserting the vnode at the head of the freelist (this is a very
questionable optimization that isn't even enabled by default,
but I went along with the same semantics for now)
1 microsecond into the future, the thread could enter an untimed sleep.
- Change the signature of _lwp_park() to accept an lwpid_t and second
hint pointer, but do so in a way that remains compatible with older
pthread libraries. This can be used to wake another thread before the
calling thread goes asleep, saving at least one syscall + involuntary
context switch. This turns out to be a fairly large win on the condvar
benchmarks that I have tried.
- Mark some more syscalls MP safe.
into sdl_data[].
Move the macro satocsdl() to net/if_dl.h, and introduce satosdl().
Add some helpers for initializing sockaddr_dl (sockaddr_dl_init),
for finding out the length to put in a sockaddr_dl's sdl_len member
(sockaddr_dl_measure), and for setting the link-layer address in
a sockaddr_dl to a new value (sockaddr_dl_setaddr).
Make sockaddr_copy() panic if the caller tries to copy a sockaddr
to a destination where it will not fit.
- Make structures CPU-cache friendly, as suggested and explained
by Andrew Doran. CACHE_LINE_SIZE definition is invented.
- Use current CPU if NULL is passed to the workqueue_enqueue().
- Implemented MI CPU index, which could be used as an index of array.
Removed linked-lists usage for work queues.
The roundup2() function avoids division, but works only with power of 2.
