- struct timeval time is gone
time.tv_sec -> time_second
- struct timeval mono_time is gone
mono_time.tv_sec -> time_uptime
- access to time via
{get,}{micro,nano,bin}time()
get* versions are fast but less precise
- support NTP nanokernel implementation (NTP API 4)

- don't bother to take nfs_sndlock when doing nfsrv_rcv.
unlike client, we never reconnect.
- nfsrv_getstream: fix the case that m_split sleeps.
- free socket in nfsrv_slpderef rather than nfsrv_zapsock.
fix race with nfssvc_nfsd.
- while i'm here, remove NFSD_WAITING and NFSD_REQINPROG
as they are redundant.
- some comments and assertions.
- Remove all NFS related stuff from file system specific code.
- Drop the vfs_checkexp hook and generalize it in the new nfs_check_export
function, thus removing redundancy from all file systems.
- Move all NFS export-related stuff from kern/vfs_subr.c to the new
file sys/nfs/nfs_export.c. The former was becoming large and its code
is always compiled, regardless of the build options. Using the latter,
the code is only compiled in when NFSSERVER is enabled. While doing this,
also make some functions in nfs_subs.c conditional to NFSSERVER.
- Add a new command in nfssvc(2), called NFSSVC_SETEXPORTSLIST, that takes a
path and a set of export entries. At the moment it can only clear the
exports list or append entries, one by one, but it is done in a way that
allows setting the whole set of entries atomically in the future (see the
comment in mountd_set_exports_list or in doc/TODO).
- Change mountd(8) to use the nfssvc(2) system call instead of mount(2) so
that it becomes file system agnostic. In fact, all this whole thing was
done to remove a 'XXX' block from this utility!
- Change the mount*, newfs and fsck* userland utilities to not deal with NFS
exports initialization; done internally by the kernel when initializing
the NFS support for each file system.
- Implement an interface for VFS (called VFS hooks) so that several kernel
subsystems can run arbitrary code upon receipt of specific VFS events.
At the moment, this only provides support for unmount and is used to
destroy NFS exports lists from the file systems being unmounted, though it
has room for extension.
Thanks go to yamt@, chs@, thorpej@, wrstuden@ and others for their comments
and advice in the development of this patch.
of curproc (where uio->uio_procp should be used?). Don't do this
for nfs_commit(), because yamt says it is possibly wrong.
2. nfs_doio() does not use struct proc; remove it and the code to compute it.
3. use copyin_proc() and copyout_proc() instead of copyin() and copyout().
4. check return of copyout_proc(). and mark return from copyin_proc() XXX
5. Eliminate check p == curproc assertion check from nfs_write;
nfs_read does not have it and we might be called in a different
process context anyway (PR 20138).
Add a new explicit `struct proc *p' argument to socreate(), sosend().
Use that argument instead of curproc. Follow-on changes to pass that
argument to socreate(), sosend(), and (*so->so_send)() calls.
These changes reviewed and independently recoded by Matt Thomas.
Changes to soreceive() and (*dom->dom_exernalize() from Matt Thomas:
pass soreceive()'s struct uio* uio->uio_procp to unp_externalize().
Eliminate curproc from unp_externalize. Also, now soreceive() uses
its uio->uio_procp value, pass that same value downward to
((pr->pru_usrreq)() calls for consistency, instead of (struct proc * )0.
Similar changes in sys/nfs to eliminate (most) uses of curproc,
either via the req-> r_procp field of a struct nfsreq *req argument,
or by passing down new explicit struct proc * arguments.
Reviewed by: Matt Thomas, posted to tech-kern.
NB: The (*pr->pru_usrreq)() change should be tested on more (all!) protocols.
be inserted into ktrace records. The general change has been to replace
"struct proc *" with "struct lwp *" in various function prototypes, pass
the lwp through and use l_proc to get the process pointer when needed.
Bump the kernel rev up to 1.6V
