to parse and generate the compat name and basename (e.g. __stat50
and stat). Use this to autogenerate __RENAME()'s to the rump_syscalls
header so that they can be called e.g. rump_sys_socket() instead
of rump_sys___socket30().
into modules. By and large this commit:
- shuffles header files and ifdefs
- splits code out where necessary to be modular
- adds module glue for each of the components
- adds/replaces hooks for things that can be installed at runtime
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.
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.
- Lock processes, credentials, filehead etc correctly.
- Acquire a read hold on sysctl_treelock if only doing a query.
- Don't wire down the output buffer. It doesn't work correctly and the code
regularly does long term sleeps with it held - it's not worth it.
- Don't hold locks other than sysctl_lock while doing copyout().
- Drop sysctl_lock while doing copyout / allocating memory in a few places.
- Don't take kernel_lock for sysctl.
- Fix a number of bugs spotted along the way
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.
The general trend is to remove it from all kernel interfaces and
this is a start. In case the calling lwp is desired, curlwp should
be used.
quick consensus on tech-kern
ioctl in order to change the display colours.
Changing the code to not need the stackgap is rather pervasive, and it isn't
at all clear this is useful effort given the suspected bitrottedness
of compat darwin.
in order to avoid the stackgap (etc).
Note that since changing the darwin socket address is simply a matter of
translating the address family and adding sa_len, it can easily be done
on the mbuf resident address before/after copying to/from userspace.
Simplify the convertion of AF_LOCAL addresses by usingthe user-supplied
buffer length instead of dowing an unbounded strlen().
Untested - did this work before?
If sa_len is zero, believing the size passed to bind/connect seems
better than trying to strlen somthing that might run off the mapped kma.
Verify the address family against the array size before indexing.

idle lwp, and some changes depending on it.
1. separate context switching and thread scheduling.
(cf. gmcgarry_ctxsw)
2. implement idle lwp.
3. clean up related MD/MI interfaces.
4. make scheduler(s) modular.
avoid having to allocate space in the 'stackgap'
- which is very LWP unfriendly.
The additional code for non-emulation namei() is trivial, the reduction for
the emulations is massive.
The vnode for a processes emulation root is saved in the cwdi structure
during process exec.
If the emulation root the TRYEMULROOT flag are set, namei() will do an initial
search for absolute pathnames in the emulation root, if that fails it will
retry from the normal root.
".." at the emulation root will always go to the real root, even in the middle
of paths and when expanding symlinks.
Absolute symlinks found using absolute paths in the emulation root will be
relative to the emulation root (so /usr/lib/xxx.so -> /lib/xxx.so links
inside the emulation root don't need changing).
If the root of the emulation would be returned (for an emulation lookup), then
the real root is returned instead (matching the behaviour of emul_lookup,
but being a cheap comparison here) so that programs that scan "../.."
looking for the root dircetory don't loop forever.
The target for symbolic links is no longer mangled (it used to get the
CHECK_ALT_xxx() treatment, so could get /emul/xxx prepended).
CHECK_ALT_xxx() are no more. Most of the change is deleting them, and adding
TRYEMULROOT to the flags to NDINIT().
A lot of the emulation system call stubs could now be deleted.
updated path parameter is ever valid - especially when emul_find() fails.
Use the modified path for the access() calls.
Found when compiling with emul_find() hacked to always fail.
