- 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.
- 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

This fixes netbsd32_setitimer() which had drifted from the native syscall

do not leak siginfo structures.
Note that in the cases of trap signals and timer events, losing this

so that they can be used unadorned in if/else blocks, etc. This means
that you now *have* to put a ; at the end of the "call" to these

further deprecate struct timezone usage by changing `tzp' argument to
gettimeofday() to void *; align utimes(2) declaration by changing `times`
argument from struct timeval * to struct timeval[2]. From Murray
Armfield in PR standards/25331.
In due curse, reflect these changes in futimes(2), lutimes(2), and
settimeofday(2).
- 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 sa_yield lower current concurrency
- set sa_cpu = VP id in upcalls

an offset between ss_sp and struct sa_stackinfo_t (located in struct
__pthread_st) when calling sa_register. The kernel increments the
sast_gen counter in struct sastack when an upcall stack is used.
libpthread increments the sasi_stackgen counter in struct
sa_stackinfo_t when an upcall stack is freed. The kernel compares the
two counters to decide if a stack is free or in use.
- add struct sa_stackinfo_t with sasi_stackgen to count stack use in
userland
- add sast_gen to struct sastack to count stack use in kernel
- add SA_FLAG_STACKINFO to enable the stackinfo_offset argument in the
sa_register syscall
- add sa_stackinfo_offset to struct sadata for offset between ss_sp
and struct sa_stackinfo_t
- add ssize_t stackinfo_offset argument to sa_register, initialize
struct sadata's sa_stackinfo_offset from it if SA_FLAG_STACKINFO is
set
- add sa_getstack, sa_getstack0, sa_stackused and sa_setstackfree
functions to find/use/free upcall stacks and use these where
appropriate
- don't record stack for upcall in sa_upcall0
- pass sau to sa_switchcall instead of l2 (l2 = curlwp in sa_switchcall)
- add sa_vp_blocker to struct sadata to pass recently blocked lwp to
sa_switchcall
- delay finding a stack for blocked upcalls to sa_switchcall
- add sa_stacknext to struct sadata pointing to next most likely free
upcall stack; also g/c sa_stackslist in struct sadata and sast_list
in struct sastack
- add L_SA_WOKEN flag: LWP is on sa_woken queue
- add L_SA_RECYCLE flag: LWP should be recycled in sa_setwoken
- replace l_upcallstack with L_SA_WOKEN/L_SA_RECYCLE/L_SA_BLOCKING
flags
- g/c now unused sast_blocker in struct sastack
- make sa_switchcall, sa_upcall0 and sa_upcall_getstate static in
kern_sa.c
- call sa_upcall_userret only once in userret
- split sa_makeupcalls out of sa_upcall_userret and use to process
the sa_upcalls queue
- on process exit: mark LWPs sleeping in saunblock interruptible; also
there are no LWPs sleeping on l->l_upcallstack anymore; also clear
sa_wokenq_head to prevent unblocked upcalls
additional changes:
- cleanup timerupcall sa_vp == curlwp check
- add check in sa_yield if we didn't block on our way here and we
wouldn't any longer be the LWP on the VP
- invalidate sa_vp_ofaultaddr after resolving pagefault
copyin() or copyout().
uvm_useracc() tells us whether the mapping permissions allow access to
the desired part of an address space, and many callers assume that
this is the same as knowing whether an attempt to access that part of
the address space will succeed. however, access to user space can
fail for reasons other than insufficient permission, most notably that
paging in any non-resident data can fail due to i/o errors. most of
the callers of uvm_useracc() make the above incorrect assumption. the
rest are all misguided optimizations, which optimize for the case
where an operation will fail. we'd rather optimize for operations
succeeding, in which case we should just attempt the access and handle
failures due to insufficient permissions the same way we handle i/o
errors. since there appear to be no good uses of uvm_useracc(), we'll
just remove it.
General idea: only consider the LWP on the VP for signal delivery, all
other LWPs are either asleep or running from waking up until repossessing
the VP.
- in kern_sig.c:kpsignal2: handle all states the LWP on the VP can be in
- in kern_sig.c:proc_stop: only try to stop the LWP on the VP. All other
LWPs will suspend in sa_vp_repossess() until the VP-LWP donates the VP.
Restore original behaviour (before SA-specific hacks were added) for
non-SA processes.
- in kern_sig.c:proc_unstop: only return the LWP on the VP
- handle sa_yield as case 0 in sa_switch instead of clearing L_SA, add an
L_SA_YIELD flag
- replace sa_idle by L_SA_IDLE flag since it was either NULL or == sa_vp
Also don't output itimerfire overrun warning if the process is already
exiting.
Also g/c sa_woken because it's not used.
Also g/c some #if 0 code.
Right now the only flag is used to indicate if a ksiginfo_t is a
result of a trap. Add a predicate macro to test for this flag.
* Add initialization macros for ksiginfo_t's.
* Add accssor macro for ksi_trap. Expands to 0 if the ksiginfo_t was
not the result of a trap. This matches the sigcontext trapcode semantics.
* In kpsendsig(), use KSI_TRAP_P() to select the lwp that gets the signal.
Inspired by Matthias Drochner's fix to kpsendsig(), but correctly handles
the case of non-trap-generated signals that have a > 0 si_code.
This patch fixes a signal delivery problem with threaded programs noted by
Matthias Drochner on tech-kern.

a second when maxpps was 0.
syscall sys_timer_settime()) to take an absolute value for realtime
timers. This avoids a pair of gratiuitous conversions with the
possibility that the timer's intermediate value would be 0.0, which
would signal timer_settime() to cancel the timer.
Adjust callers of timer_settime() to compensate; catch the case where
sys_timer_settime() with an absolute time value of now and a virtual
timer would also be subtracted down to a timer-cancelling 0.0.
This should fix the bug seen in libpthread's nanosleep() where certain
applications, such as xmms, would wedge with unexpired userlevel
alarms.
fire close together, the second (and every other) timer would be
added to mask incorrectly - timerid value would be shifted twice,
and sa_upcall() would later kill process with SIGILL
mechanism by keeping a list (bitset) of which timers have fired and using
that list in the upcall (Does this sound familiar? SEND HELP NEED SIGINFO).
Provoke the idle LWP into running again with setrunnable(sa->sa_idle)
instead of a wakeup() call, since we know what it is.
This is a followup to PR/14558.
- itimerfix(9) limited the number of seconds to 100M, before I changed
it to 1000M for PR/14558.
- nanosleep(2) documents a limit of 1000M seconds.
- setitimer(2), select(2), and other library functions that indirectly
use setitimer(2) for example alarm(3) don't specify a limit.
So it only seems appropriate that any positive number of seconds in
struct timeval should be accepted by any code that uses itimerfix(9)
directly, except nanosleep(2) which should check for 1000M seconds
manually. This changes makes the manual pages of select(2), nanosleep(2),
setitimer(2), and alarm(3) consistent with the code.
checks root privs, and a lower part that does the actual job. The lower part
will be called by the upcoming clockctl driver. Approved by Christos
Also fixed a few cosmetic things
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.
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.
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.
that is priority is rasied. Add a new spllowersoftclock() to provide the
atomic drop-to-softclock semantics that the old splsoftclock() provided,
and update calls accordingly.
This fixes a problem with using the "rnd" pseudo-device from within
interrupt context to extract random data (e.g. from within the softnet
interrupt) where doing so would incorrectly unblock interrupts (causing
all sorts of lossage).
XXX 4 platforms do not have priority-raising capability: newsmips, sparc,
XXX sparc64, and VAX. This platforms still have this bug until their
XXX spl*() functions are fixed.
Eliminate obsolete global kernel variable "struct timezone tz"
Add RTC_OFFSET option
Add global kernel variable rtc_offset, which is initialized by
RTC_OFFSET at kernel compile time.
on i386, x68k, mac68k, pc532 and arm32, RTC_OFFSET indicates how many
minutes west (east) of GMT the hardware RTC runs. Defaults to 0.
Places where tz variable was used to indicate this in the past have
been replaced with rtc_offset.
Add sysctl interface to rtc_offset.
Kill obsolete DST_* macros in sys/time.h
gettimeofday now always returns zeroed timezone if zone is requested.
settimeofday now ignores and logs attempts to set non-existant kernel
timezone.
