- 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

in the case where we're sending SIGKILL but all LWPs are not signalable.
some LWP will wake up soon enough to process the signal, and there may
not be any LWPs in the cache to wake up anyway. fixes PR 28886 and PR 26771.
also, add a missing "break" pointed out by yamt.
discussed in the PR.
- introduce sys/timevar.h to hold kernel-specific stuff relevant to
sys/time.h. Ideally, timevar.h would contain all (or almost) of the
#ifdef _KERNEL part of time.h, but that's a pretty big and tedious
change to make. For now, it will contain only the prototypes I
introduced when working on COMPAT_NETBSD32.
- split copyinout_t into copyin_t and copyout_t, it makes prototypes more
explicit about the meaning of a given argument. Suggested by yamt@.
- move copyinout_t definition in sys/time.h to systm.h as copyin_t and
copyout_t
- make everything uses the new types and include the proper headers at
the proper places.
since both pool_get() and pool_put() can call wakeup().
instead, allocate the struct sadata_upcall before taking
sched_lock in mi_switch() and free it after releasing sched_lock.
clean up some modularity warts by adding a callback to
struct sadata_upcall for freeing sa_arg.
i/o is done. Instead, pass an opaque cookie which is then passed to a
new routine, coredump_write, which does the actual i/o. This allows the
method of doing i/o to change without affecting any future MD code.
Also, make netbsd32_core.c [re]use core_netbsd.c (in a similar manner that
core_elf64.c uses core_elf32.c) and eliminate that code duplication.
cpu_coredump{,32} is now called twice, first with a NULL iocookie to fill
the core structure and a second to actually write md parts of the coredump.
All i/o is nolonger random access and is suitable for shipping over a stream.
- don't use managed mappings/backing objects for wired memory allocations.
save some resources like pv_entry. also fix (most of) PR/27030.
- simplify kernel memory management API.
- simplify pmap bootstrap of some ports.
- some related cleanups.
do not leak siginfo structures.
Note that in the cases of trap signals and timer events, losing this
information could be very bad; right now it will cause us to spin until the
process is SIGKILLed.
"Needs work."
a proclist and call the specified function for each of them.
primarily to fix a procfs locking problem, but i think that it's useful for
others as well.
while i'm here, introduce PROCLIST_FOREACH macro, which is similar to
LIST_FOREACH but skips marker entries which are used by proclist_foreach_call.

to pool_init. Untouched pools are ones that either in arch-specific
code, or aren't initialiased during initial system startup.
Convert struct session, ucred and lockf to pools.
Add an initializer for them: KSI_INIT_EMPTY
Add a predicate for them: KSI_EMPTY_P
Don't bother storing empty ksiginfo_t's since they have no information.
Change uses of KSI_INIT to KSI_INIT_EMPTY where no other information other
than the signo is being filled in.
not blocked. Otherwise (it if it blocked or the hanlder is set to SIG_IGN)
reset the signal back to its default settings so that a coredump can be
generated.
- move per VP data into struct sadata_vp referenced from l->l_savp

* lock on VP data
* LWP on VP
* recently blocked LWP on VP
* queue of LWPs woken which ran on this VP before sleep
* faultaddr
* LWP cache for upcalls
* upcall queue
- add current concurrency and requested concurrency variables
- make process exit run LWP on all VPs
- make signal delivery consider all VPs
- make timer events consider all VPs
- add sa_newsavp to allocate new sadata_vp structure
- add sa_increaseconcurrency to prepare new VP
- make sys_sa_setconcurrency request new VP or wakeup idle VP
- make sa_yield lower current concurrency
- set sa_cpu = VP id in upcalls
- maintain cached LWPs per VP
be updated. (This is needed to be compatible with how pre-SIGINFO signals
operated. If you siglongjmp out of a signal handler, the SS_ONSTACK state
needs to be cleared. This commit restores that functionality).
fit what it does.
The softsignal feature is used in Darwin to trace processes. When the
traced process gets a signal, this raises an exception. The debugger will
receive the exception message, use ptrace with PT_THUPDATE to pass the
signal to the child or discard it, and then it will send a reply to the
exception message, to resume the child.
With the hook at the beginnng of kpsignal2, we are in the context of the
signal sender, which can be the kill(1) command, for instance. We cannot
afford to sleep until the debugger tells us if the signal should be
delivered or not.
Therefore, the hook to generate the Mach exception must be in the traced
process context. That was we can sleep awaiting for the debugger opinion
about the signal, this is not a problem. The hook is hence located into
issignal, at the place where normally SIGCHILD is sent to the debugger,
whereas the traced process is stopped. If the hook returns 0, we bypass
thoses operations, the Mach exception mecanism will take care of notifying
the debugger (through a Mach exception), and stop the faulting thread.
so that a specific emulation has the oportunity to filter out some signals.
if sigfilter returns 0, then no signal is sent by kpsignal2().
There is another place where signals can be generated: trapsignal. Since this
function is already an emulation hook, no call to the sigfilter hook was
introduced in trapsignal.
This is needed to emulate the softsignal feature in COMPAT_DARWIN (signals
sent as Mach exception messages)
