54366c0bd7 - For kernel compiled only with KDTRACE_HOOKS and not any lock debugging
option, unbreak the lock tracing release semantic by embedding
  calls to LOCKSTAT_PROFILE_RELEASE_LOCK() direclty in the inlined
  version of the releasing functions for mutex, rwlock and sxlock.
  Failing to do so skips the lockstat_probe_func invokation for
  unlocking.
- As part of the LOCKSTAT support is inlined in mutex operation, for
  kernel compiled without lock debugging options, potentially every
  consumer must be compiled including opt_kdtrace.h.
  Fix this by moving KDTRACE_HOOKS into opt_global.h and remove the
  dependency by opt_kdtrace.h for all files, as now only KDTRACE_FRAMES
  is linked there and it is only used as a compile-time stub [0].

[0] immediately shows some new bug as DTRACE-derived support for debug
in sfxge is broken and it was never really tested.  As it was not
including correctly opt_kdtrace.h before it was never enabled so it
was kept broken for a while.  Fix this by using a protection stub,
leaving sfxge driver authors the responsibility for fixing it
appropriately [1].

7faf4d90e8 Fix lc_lock/lc_unlock() support for rmlocks held in shared mode. With
current lock classes KPI it was really difficult because there was no
way to pass an rmtracker object to the lock/unlock routines. In order
to accomplish the task, modify the aforementioned functions so that
they can return (or pass as argument) an uinptr_t, which is in the rm
case used to hold a pointer to struct rm_priotracker for current
thread. As an added bonus, this fixes rm_sleep() in the rm shared
case, which right now can communicate priotracker structure between
lc_unlock()/lc_lock().

b5fb43e572 A few mostly cosmetic nits to aid in debugging:
- Call lock_init() first before setting any lock_object fields in
  lock init routines.  This way if the machine panics due to a duplicate
  init the lock's original state is preserved.
- Somewhat similarly, don't decrement td_locks and td_slocks until after
  an unlock operation has completed successfully.

Idle threads are not allowed to acquire any lock but spinlocks.
Deny any attempt to do so by panicing at the locking operation
when INVARIANTS is on. Then, remove the check on blocking on a

353705930f panic: add a switch and infrastructure for stopping other CPUs in SMP case
Historical behavior of letting other CPUs merily go on is a default for
time being.  The new behavior can be switched on via
kern.stop_scheduler_on_panic tunable and sysctl.

Stopping of the CPUs has (at least) the following benefits:
- more of the system state at panic time is preserved intact
- threads and interrupts do not interfere with dumping of the system
  state

Only one thread runs uninterrupted after panic if stop_scheduler_on_panic
is set.  That thread might call code that is also used in normal context
and that code might use locks to prevent concurrent execution of certain
parts.  Those locks might be held by the stopped threads and would never
be released.  To work around this issue, it was decided that instead of
explicit checks for panic context, we would rather put those checks
inside the locking primitives.

This change has substantial portions written and re-written by attilio
and kib at various times.  Other changes are heavily based on the ideas
and patches submitted by jhb and mdf.  bde has provided many insights
into the details and history of the current code.

The new behavior may cause problems for systems that use a USB keyboard
for interfacing with system console.  This is because of some unusual
locking patterns in the ukbd code which have to be used because on one
hand ukbd is below syscons, but on the other hand it has to interface
with other usb code that uses regular mutexes/Giant for its concurrency
protection.  Dumping to USB-connected disks may also be affected.

2028867def In current code, threads performing an interruptible sleep (on both
sxlock, via the sx_{s, x}lock_sig() interface, or plain lockmgr), will
leave the waiters flag on forcing the owner to do a wakeup even when if
the waiter queue is empty.
That operation may lead to a deadlock in the case of doing a fake wakeup
on the "preferred" (based on the wakeup algorithm) queue while the other
queue has real waiters on it, because nobody is going to wakeup the 2nd
queue waiters and they will sleep indefinitively.

A similar bug, is present, for lockmgr in the case the waiters are
sleeping with LK_SLEEPFAIL on.  In this case, even if the waiters queue
is not empty, the waiters won't progress after being awake but they will
just fail, still not taking care of the 2nd queue waiters (as instead the
lock owned doing the wakeup would expect).

In order to fix this bug in a cheap way (without adding too much locking
and complicating too much the semantic) add a sleepqueue interface which
does report the actual number of waiters on a specified queue of a
waitchannel (sleepq_sleepcnt()) and use it in order to determine if the
exclusive waiters (or shared waiters) are actually present on the lockmgr
(or sx) before to give them precedence in the wakeup algorithm.
This fix alone, however doesn't solve the LK_SLEEPFAIL bug. In order to
cope with it, add the tracking of how many exclusive LK_SLEEPFAIL waiters
a lockmgr has and if all the waiters on the exclusive waiters queue are
LK_SLEEPFAIL just wake both queues.

The sleepq_sleepcnt() introduction and ABI breakage require
__FreeBSD_version bumping.

8d3635c4db Fix some bugs related to adaptive spinning:
In the lockmgr support:
- GIANT_RESTORE() is just called when the sleep finishes, so the current
  code can ends up into a giant unlock problem.  Fix it by appropriately
  call GIANT_RESTORE() when needed.  Note that this is not exactly ideal
  because for any interation of the adaptive spinning we drop and restore
  Giant, but the overhead should be not a factor.
- In the lock held in exclusive mode case, after the adaptive spinning is
  brought to completition, we should just retry to acquire the lock
  instead to fallthrough. Fix that.
- Fix a style nit

In the sx support:
- Call GIANT_SAVE() before than looping. This saves some overhead because
  in the current code GIANT_SAVE() is called several times.

da7bbd2c08 If a thread that is swapped out is made runnable, then the setrunnable()
routine wakes up proc0 so that proc0 can swap the thread back in.
Historically, this has been done by waking up proc0 directly from
setrunnable() itself via a wakeup().  When waking up a sleeping thread
that was swapped out (the usual case when waking proc0 since only sleeping
threads are eligible to be swapped out), this resulted in a bit of
recursion (e.g. wakeup() -> setrunnable() -> wakeup()).

With sleep queues having separate locks in 6.x and later, this caused a
spin lock LOR (sleepq lock -> sched_lock/thread lock -> sleepq lock).
An attempt was made to fix this in 7.0 by making the proc0 wakeup use
the ithread mechanism for doing the wakeup.  However, this required
grabbing proc0's thread lock to perform the wakeup.  If proc0 was asleep
elsewhere in the kernel (e.g. waiting for disk I/O), then this degenerated
into the same LOR since the thread lock would be some other sleepq lock.

Fix this by deferring the wakeup of the swapper until after the sleepq
lock held by the upper layer has been locked.  The setrunnable() routine
now returns a boolean value to indicate whether or not proc0 needs to be
woken up.  The end result is that consumers of the sleepq API such as
*sleep/wakeup, condition variables, sx locks, and lockmgr, have to wakeup
proc0 if they get a non-zero return value from sleepq_abort(),
sleepq_broadcast(), or sleepq_signal().

also adds support for exclusive locks using the same algorithm as mutexes.

A new sx_init_flags() function has been added so that optional flags can be
specified to alter a given locks behavior.  The flags include SX_DUPOK,
SX_NOWITNESS, SX_NOPROFILE, and SX_QUITE which are all identical in nature
to the similar flags for mutexes.

Adaptive spinning on select locks may be enabled by enabling the
ADAPTIVE_SX kernel option.  Only locks initialized with the SX_ADAPTIVESPIN
flag via sx_init_flags() will adaptively spin.

The common cases for sx_slock(), sx_sunlock(), sx_xlock(), and sx_xunlock()
are now performed inline in non-debug kernels.  As a result, <sys/sx.h> now
requires <sys/lock.h> to be included prior to <sys/sx.h>.

The new kernel option SX_NOINLINE can be used to disable the aforementioned
inlining in non-debug kernels.

The size of struct sx has changed, so the kernel ABI is probably greatly
disturbed.
