default, build a handful of tools as n64 so they work properly.
unfortunately, they're also static as dynamic n64 has a problem.
of these tools pstat is probably the lowest hanging fruit to convert
to sysctl. systat would be close were it not for the netstat screen,
which includes netstat itself.
the rest are difficult to perhaps foolish.
the upside is that netstat, pmap and fstat all work properly now.
message is retained, and you can't get rid of it. since it's dispalyed
in inverse, it feels like there's always an error happening (which is
really what the code has -- the above string is displayed via the error()
function.) for several types of key press that largely are just "redraw"
operation (space, ^L, etc.), clear the error string as well.
races while allowing consistent lockless sampling of the per-cpu
statistics without atomic operations. Update comment describing
the locking protocol to include this.
These files were fumble-fingered out of the last commit.
- Addresses the issue described in PR/38828.
- Some simplification in threading and sleepq subsystems.
- Eliminates pmap_collect() and, as a side note, allows pmap optimisations.
- Eliminates XS_CTL_DATA_ONSTACK in scsipi code.
- Avoids few scans on LWP list and thus potentially long holds of proc_lock.
- Cuts ~1.5k lines of code. Reduces amd64 kernel size by ~4k.
- Removes __SWAP_BROKEN cases.
Tested on x86, mips, acorn32 (thanks <mpumford>) and partly tested on
acorn26 (thanks to <bjh21>).
Discussed on <tech-kern>, reviewed by <ad>.
address space available to processes. this limit exists in most other
modern unix variants, and like most of them, our defaults are unlimited.
remove the old mmap / rlimit.datasize hack.
- adds the VMCMD_STACK flag to all the stack-creation vmcmd callers.
it is currently unused, but was added a few years ago.
- add a pair of new process size values to kinfo_proc2{}. one is the
total size of the process memory map, and the other is the total size
adjusted for unused stack space (since most processes have a lot of
this...)
- patch sh, and csh to notice RLIMIT_AS. (in some cases, the alias
RLIMIT_VMEM was already present and used if availble.)
- patch ps, top and systat to notice the new k_vm_vsize member of
kinfo_proc2{}.
- update irix, svr4, svr4_32, linux and osf1 emulations to support
this information. (freebsd could be done, but that it's best left
as part of the full-update of compat/freebsd.)
this addresses PR 7897. it also gives correct memory usage values,
which have never been entirely correct (since mmap), and have been
very incorrect since jemalloc() was enabled.
tested on i386 and sparc64, build tested on several other platforms.
thanks to many folks for feedback and testing but most espcially
chuq and yamt for critical suggestions that lead to this patch not
having a special ugliness i wasn't happy with anyway :-)
