devices have been discovered. All finalizer routines are iteratively
invoked until all of them report that they have done no work.
Use this hook to fix a latent bug in RAIDframe autoconfiguration of
RAID sets exposed by the rework of SCSI device discovery.
name to start up as init (rather than just cycling thru initpaths[]
and panicing when out of options). if RB_ASKNAME isn't set, the old
behaviour remains. inspired by changes in der Mouse's patchtree.
resolves [kern/18027] from me.
init vfs so it can the size into account when creating its hash lists.
This means that for a 2GB system, it'll have a default of 65536 buckets
instead of 2048 and when you have 200,000+ vnodes that makes a significant
difference.
for FreeBSD project. Besides huge speed boost compared with socketpair-based
pipes, this implementation also uses pagable kernel memory instead of mbufs.
Significant differences to FreeBSD version:
* uses uvm_loan() facility for direct write
* async/SIGIO handling correct also for sync writer, async reader
* limits settable via sysctl, amountpipekva and nbigpipes available via sysctl
* pipes are unidirectional - this is enforced on file descriptor level
for now only, the code would be updated to take advantage of it
eventually
* uses lockmgr(9)-based locks instead of home brew variant
* scatter-gather write is handled correctly for direct write case, data
is transferred by PIPE_DIRECT_CHUNK bytes maximum, to avoid running out of kva
All FreeBSD/NetBSD specific code is within appropriate #ifdef, in preparation
to feed changes back to FreeBSD tree.
This pipe implementation is optional for now, add 'options NEW_PIPE'
to your kernel config to use it.
* __HAVE_SYSCALL_INTERN. If this is defined, e_syscall is replaced by
e_syscall_intern, which is called at key places in the kernel. This can be
used to set a MD syscall handler pointer. This obsoletes and replaces the
*_HAS_SEPARATED_SYSCALL flags.
* __HAVE_MINIMAL_EMUL. If this is defined, certain (deprecated) elements in
struct emul are omitted.
* move all exec-type specific information from struct emul to execsw[] and
provide single struct emul per emulation
* elf:
- kern/exec_elf32.c:probe_funcs[] is gone, execsw[] how has one entry
per emulation and contains pointer to respective probe function
- interp is allocated via MALLOC() rather than on stack
- elf_args structure is allocated via MALLOC() rather than malloc()
* ecoff: the per-emulation hooks moved from alpha and mips specific code
to OSF1 and Ultrix compat code as appropriate, execsw[] has one entry per
emulation supporting ecoff with appropriate probe function
* the makecmds/probe functions don't set emulation, pointer to emulation is
part of appropriate execsw[] entry
* constify couple of structures
routine. Works similarly fto pmap_prefer(), but allows callers
to specify a minimum power-of-two alignment of the region.
How we ever got along without this for so long is beyond me.
- Periodically invoke roundrobin() from hardclock() on all cpu's rather
than from a timer callout; this allows time-slicing on non-primary cpu's.
- Make pscnt per-cpu.
- Notice psdiv changes on each cpu, and adjust pscnt at that point.
Also, invoke setstatclockrate() from the clock interrupt when each cpu
notices the divisor change, rather than when starting/stopping the
profiling clock.
vslock the user pages for the data being copied out to userspace,
so that we won't sleep while holding a lock in case we need to
fault the pages in.
- Sprinkle some const and ANSI'ify some things while here.
to machine memory size upon boot if the number has not been specified
explicitly in kernel config - at this moment, 0.5% of system
memory is used for vnodes (but minimum NVNODE vnodes)
p_cpu member to struct proc. Use this in certain places when
accessing scheduler state, etc. For the single-processor case,
just initialize p_cpu in fork1() to avoid having to set it in the
low-level context switch code on platforms which will never have
multiprocessing.
While I'm here, comment a few places where there are known issues
for the SMP implementation.
doing a cpu_set_kpc(), just pass the entry point and argument all
the way down the fork path starting with fork1(). In order to
avoid special-casing the normal fork in every cpu_fork(), MI code
passes down child_return() and the child process pointer explicitly.
This fixes a race condition on multiprocessor systems; a CPU could
grab the newly created processes (which has been placed on a run queue)
before cpu_set_kpc() would be performed.
state into global and per-CPU scheduler state:
- Global state: sched_qs (run queues), sched_whichqs (bitmap
of non-empty run queues), sched_slpque (sleep queues).
NOTE: These may collectively move into a struct schedstate
at some point in the future.
- Per-CPU state, struct schedstate_percpu: spc_runtime
(time process on this CPU started running), spc_flags
(replaces struct proc's p_schedflags), and
spc_curpriority (usrpri of processes on this CPU).
- Every platform must now supply a struct cpu_info and
a curcpu() macro. Simplify existing cpu_info declarations
where appropriate.
- All references to per-CPU scheduler state now made through
curcpu(). NOTE: this will likely be adjusted in the future
after further changes to struct proc are made.
Tested on i386 and Alpha. Changes are mostly mechanical, but apologies
in advance if it doesn't compile on a particular platform.
which indicates that the process is actually running on a
processor. Test against SONPROC as appropriate rather than
combinations of SRUN and curproc. Update all context switch code
to properly set SONPROC when the process becomes the current
process on the CPU.
timeout()/untimeout() API:
- Clients supply callout handle storage, thus eliminating problems of
resource allocation.
- Insertion and removal of callouts is constant time, important as
this facility is used quite a lot in the kernel.
The old timeout()/untimeout() API has been removed from the kernel.
disk space rather than doing it in timeout handler. This fixes long
standing bug that accounting file can't be put on NFS file system (so,
e.g, we couldn't turn on accounting on diskless system).
until all device driver discovery threads have had a chance to do their
work. This in turn blocks initproc's exec of init(8) until root is
mounted and process start times and CWD info has been fixed up.
Addresses kern/9247.
