held.
The only place where we want to not hold topology is when we read
(or write) the label to disk: in the case of a disk error with a
long recovery time, holding topology would prevent open/close of
any disk device.
rename them appropriately. Protect both flags with both the proc lock
and the sched_lock.
- Protect p_profthreads with the proc lock.
- Remove Giant from profil(2).
- For the 4BSD scheduler, this means that all callers of the static
function resetpriority() now always hold sched_lock, so don't lock
sched_lock explicitly in that function.
kg_nice is now protected by both. Being protected by both means that
other places in the kernel that want to read kg_nice only need one of the
two locks.

In order to test this on a single CPU machine, you need to:
sysctl kern.threads.debug=1
sysctl kern.threads.virtual_cpu=2
lock level is 0. Thus far, the threads implementation doesn't use
mutexes or condition variables so the lock level should be 0.
Save the return value when trying to schedule a new thread and
use this to return an error from pthread_create().
Change the max sleep time for an idle KSE to 1 minute from 2 minutes.
Maintain a count of the number of KSEs within a KSEG.
With these changes scope system threads seem to work, but heavy
use of them crash the kernel (supposedly VM bugs).
race where a thread could assume that a process was swapped in by
PHOLD() when it actually wasn't fully swapped in yet.
- In faultin(), always msleep() if PS_SWAPPINGIN is set instead of doing
this check after bumping p_lock in the PS_INMEM == 0 case. Also,
sched_lock is only needed for setting and clearning swapping PS_*
flags and the swap thread inhibitor.
- Don't set and clear the thread swap inhibitor in the same loops as the
pmap_swapin/out_thread() since we have to do it under sched_lock.
Instead, mimic the treatment of the PS_INMEM flag and use separate loops
to set the inhibitors when clearing PS_INMEM and clear the inhibitors
when setting PS_INMEM.
- swapout() now returns with the proc lock held as it holds the lock
while adjusting the swapping-related PS_* flags so that the proc lock
can be used to test those flags.
- Only use the proc lock to check the swapping-related PS_* flags in
several places.
- faultin() no longer requires sched_lock to be held by callers.
- Rename PS_SWAPPING to PS_SWAPPINGOUT to be less ambiguous now that we
have PS_SWAPPINGIN.
their prototypes.
- Remove sched_lock locking from kse_purge() as all callers already lock
the sched_lock before calling it.
- Hold the proc lock slightly longer to protect P_SHOULDSTOP().
or sched_lock are sufficient to test this flag.
XXX: vinum should really be using a kernel process via kthread_create()
instead of this hack. I'm not even sure PS_INMEM can be clear at this
point anyways.
kern_sigprocmask() in the various binary compatibility emulators.
- Replace calls to sigsuspend(), sigaltstack(), sigaction(), and
sigprocmask() that used the stackgap with calls to the corresponding
kern_sig*() functions instead without using the stackgap.
OBJS list. This is needed to crunch any program that relies on the
correct .CURDIR setting, e.g. src/bin/csh.

cpu_switch_load_gs, cpu is in context switch, so don't enable interrupt.
because it is in context switch, it is expected sched_lock was held,
so don't PROC_LOCK(p) and psignal, it is LOR, probably we can
set a P_XSIGBUS like flag in p_sflags, and set TDF_ASTPENDING in
td_flags, in ast(), post a SIGBUS to process if P_XSIGBUS was set.
called without Giant; and obj_alloc() in turn calls vm_page_alloc()
without Giant. This causes an assertion failure in vm_page_alloc().
Fortunately, obj_alloc() is now MPSAFE. So, we need only clean up
some assertions.
- Weaken the assertion in vm_page_lookup() to require Giant only
if the vm_object isn't locked.
- Remove an assertion from vm_page_alloc() that duplicates a check
performed in vm_page_lookup().
In collaboration with: gallatin, jake, jeff
instruction requires that a translation is present in the TC. This
may trigger a TLB miss and a subsequent call to vm_fault().
This implementation is deliberately non-inline for debugging and
profiling purposes. Partial or full inlining should eventually be
done.

separate man page. Document new device_is_attached there and remove that
new man page too.
Connect device_get_name to build, and install a link for
device_get_nameunit.
strangely nobody noticed this yet...
PC98 boot blocks don't support UFS2. We keep newfs(8) defaulting to
UFS2.
Warn users that FreeBSD can only boot from a root file system smaller
than 1.5TB; hopefully this will get fixed by the patches currently
floating around on -CURRENT.
