tsleep() instead of DELAY. Also, keep trying flushing buffers when the
number of dirty buffers decreases (20 rounds may not be enouth for a
very large buffer cache).
Using tsleep instead of delay gives a chance to others kernel threads to run,
which is needed for raidframe. With this change I've not been able to
reproduce the 'dirty buffer not flushed' problem with raidframe.
with the following modifications to the initial patch:
- rename SHOLD and P_HOST to SSUSPEND and P_SUSPEND to avoid confusion with
PHOLD()
- don't deal with SSUSPEND/P_SUSPEND in fork1(), if we come here while
scheduler is suspended we're forking proc0, which can't have P_SUSPEND set.
sched_suspend() suspends the scheduling of users process, by removing all
processes from the run queues and changing their state from SRUN to
SSUSPEND. Also mark all user process but curproc P_SUSPEND.
When a process has to be put in SRUN and is marked P_SUSPEND, it's placed in
the SSUSPEND state instead.
sched_resume() places all SSUSPEND processes back in SRUN, clear the P_SUSPEND
flag.
to update it, so don't bother with <machine/atomic.h>
Flush kernel_lock_release_all() and kernel_lock_acquire_count() (which
didn't do spinlock accounting correctly), and replace them with
spinlock_release_all() and spinlock_acquire_count().
- 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.
- In simple_lock_switchcheck(), allow/enforce exactly one lock to be
held: sched_lock.
- Per e-mail to tech-smp from Bill Sommerfeld, r/w spin locks have
an interlock at splsched(), rather than splhigh().
in the non-MULTIPROCESSOR case (LOCKDEBUG requires it). Scheduler
lock is held upon entry to mi_switch() and cpu_switch(), and
cpu_switch() releases the lock before returning.
Largely from Bill Sommerfeld, with some minor bug fixes and
machine-dependent code hacking from me.
- LOCK_ASSERT(), which expands to KASSERT() if LOCKDEBUG.
- new simple_lock_held(), which tests if the calling CPU holds
the specified simple lock.
From Bill Sommerfeld, modified slightly by me.
instead test for (p->p_flag & I_INMEM), and don't access the U-area
(via p->p_stats) if that bit is clear. Fixes the hangs people have
seen when the system is paging and the user runs top/ps/w.
simple locks are held by CPUs. Remove p_simple_locks (which was
unused anyway, really), and add a LOCKDEBUG check for held simple
locks in mi_switch(). Grow p_locks to an int to take up the space
previously used by p_simple_locks so that the proc structure doens't
change size.
NTP is not defined.
Also removes sysctl_ntptime, since that's unreferenced without NTP.
ntp_gettime(2) is left alone, since it doesn't raise SIGSYS, which sys_nosys()
does.
sig = (int)(long)*(caddr_t *)data;
to *properly* dereference the passed data. this makes signals on
ptys actually *work* on the sparc64 port. from mycroft.
XXX: the release branch version needs this ASAP as it is probably
unstable on ILP32BE.
int lf_advlock __P((struct lockf **,
off_t, caddr_t, int, struct flock *, int));
to
int lf_advlock __P((struct vop_advlock_args *, struct lockf **, off_t));
This matches common usage and is also compatible with similar change
in FreeBSD (though they use u_quad_t as last arg).
Move platform db_trap callback from arch/mips into ddb as suggested by
jhawk. This callback is used by platform code to manage things like
watchdogs that should be disabled while in ddb. Done as a callback
for processors such as mips that support lots of different systems.
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.
Stops sleeps from returning early (by up to a clock tick), and return 0
ticks for timeouts that should happen now or in the past.
Returning 0 is different from the legacy hzto() interface, and callers
need to check for it.
check that newstart + size - 1 doesn't overflow the end of the extent, rather
than the "dontcross" value, which can easily overflow the end of an extent
when being asked for an object with a large boundary requirement. this test
is more valid, in any case, and fixes extent_alloc() failure when the start of
the extent is not "aligned".
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)
use that to inform about way to raise current limit when we reach maximum
number of processes, descriptors or vnodes
XXX hopefully I catched all users of tablefull()
