For machines having cmpxcgh16b instruction, i.e. everything but very
early Athlons, provide lockless implementation of delayed
invalidation.
The implementation maintains lock-less single-linked list with the
trick from the T.L. Harris article about volatile mark of the elements
being removed. Double-CAS is used to atomically update both link and
generation. New thread starting DI appends itself to the end of the
queue, setting the generation to the generation of the last element
+1. On DI finish, thread donates its generation to the previous
element. The generation of the fake head of the list is the last
passed DI generation. Basically, the implementation is a queued
spinlock but without spinlock.
Many thanks both to Peter Holm and Mark Johnson for keeping with me
while I produced intermediate versions of the patch.

When building with KCOV enabled the compiler will insert function calls
to probes allowing us to trace the execution of the kernel from userspace.
These probes are on function entry (trace-pc) and on comparison operations
(trace-cmp).
Userspace can enable the use of these probes on a single kernel thread with
an ioctl interface. It can allocate space for the probe with KIOSETBUFSIZE,
then mmap the allocated buffer and enable tracing with KIOENABLE, with the
trace mode being passed in as the int argument. When complete KIODISABLE
is used to disable tracing.
The first item in the buffer is the number of trace event that have
happened. Userspace can write 0 to this to reset the tracing, and is
expected to do so on first use.
The format of the buffer depends on the trace mode. When in PC tracing just
the return address of the probe is stored. Under comparison tracing the
comparison type, the two arguments, and the return address are traced. The
former method uses on entry per trace event, while the later uses 4. As
such they are incompatible so only a single mode may be enabled.
KCOV is expected to help fuzzing the kernel, and while in development has
already found a number of issues. It is required for the syzkaller system
call fuzzer [1]. Other kernel fuzzers could also make use of it, either
with the current interface, or by extending it with new modes.
A man page is currently being worked on and is expected to be committed
soon, however having the code in the kernel now is useful for other
developers to use.

This implements per-thread counters for PMC sampling. The thread

These thread descriptors can store any per-thread information necessary

The thread descriptors are created when the process descriptor is created.
Additionally, thread descriptors are created or freed when threads
are started or stopped. Because the thread exit function is called in a

they are freed to a cache, which is also used as a source of allocations

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
This introduces a facility to EVENTHANDLER(9) for explicitly defining a
reference to an event handler list. This is useful since previously all
invokers of events had to do a locked traversal of the global list of
event handler lists in order to find the appropriate event handler list.
By keeping a pointer to the appropriate list an invoker can avoid this
traversal completely. The pointer is initialized with SYSINIT(9) during
the eventhandler stage. Users registering interest in events do not need
to know if the event is backed by such a list, since the list is added
to the global list of lists. As with lists that are not pre-defined it
is safe to register for the events before the list has been created.
This converts the process_* and thread_* events to using the new
facility, as these are events whose locked traversals end up showing up
significantly in ports build workflows (and presumably other workflows
with many short lived threads/procs). It may be advantageous to convert
other events to using the new facility.
The el_flags field is now unused, but leave it be so that this revision

specifics of callout KPI. Esp., do not depend on the exact interface

maintains absolute time to wake up. Callouts now should ensure that a
wake occurs at the requested moment, but we can tolerate both run-away

As consequence, it removes the constant source of the bugs where

intention of the POSIX IEEE Std 1003.1TM-2008/Cor 1-2013.
A robust mutex is guaranteed to be cleared by the system upon either
thread or process owner termination while the mutex is held. The next
mutex locker is then notified about inconsistent mutex state and can
execute (or abandon) corrective actions.
The patch mostly consists of small changes here and there, adding
neccessary checks for the inconsistent and abandoned conditions into
existing paths. Additionally, the thread exit handler was extended to
iterate over the userspace-maintained list of owned robust mutexes,
unlocking and marking as terminated each of them.
The list of owned robust mutexes cannot be maintained atomically
synchronous with the mutex lock state (it is possible in kernel, but
is too expensive). Instead, for the duration of lock or unlock
operation, the current mutex is remembered in a special slot that is
also checked by the kernel at thread termination.
Kernel must be aware about the per-thread location of the heads of
robust mutex lists and the current active mutex slot. When a thread
touches a robust mutex for the first time, a new umtx op syscall is
issued which informs about location of lists heads.
The umtx sleep queues for PP and PI mutexes are split between
non-robust and robust.
Somewhat unrelated changes in the patch:
1. Style.
2. The fix for proper tdfind() call use in umtxq_sleep_pi() for shared

3. Removal of the userspace struct pthread_mutex m_owner field.

When establishing the locking state for several lock types (including

the owner thread is running. The spinning loop performs the test for
running condition by dereferencing the owner->td_state field of the
owner thread. If the owner thread exited while spinner was put off
the processor, it is harmless to access reused struct thread owner,
since in some near future the current processor would notice the owner
change and make appropriate progress. But it could be that the page
which carried the freed struct thread was unmapped, then we fault
(this cannot happen on amd64).
For now, disallowing free of the struct thread seems to be good

* add syscalls to control changing thread and process defaults.
* add a global NUMA VM domain policy.

* processes inherit policies from their parent processes, threads inherit

policities.
* add documentation for the new syscalls, for numa and for numactl.
* re-enable first touch NUMA again by default, as now policies can be

This is only relevant for very specific workloads.
This doesn't pretend to be a final NUMA solution.
The previous defaults in -HEAD (with MAXMEMDOM set) can be achieved by

This is only relevant if MAXMEMDOM is set to something other than 1.

Notes:
* The VM doesn't handle unbalanced domains very well, and if you have an overly
unbalanced memory setup whilst under high memory pressure, VM page allocation
may fail leading to a kernel panic. This was a problem in the past, but it's
much more easily triggered now with these tools.
* This work only controls the path through vm_phys; it doesn't yet strongly/predictably

Thread credentials are maintained as follows: each thread has a pointer to

This patch introduces a counter which can be compared instead, so that more

stopping signals should obey, but also all forms of single-threading.

After the first thread did thread_single_end(SINGLE_BOUNDARY), second

In other words, we enter exec code with some threads not suspended.
Fix this by decrementing p_boundary_count in the

about atomically stopping callouts via callout_stop(). If someone

- Update the callout clients in the "kern/" folder to use the callout
API properly, like cv_timedwait(). Previously there was some custom
sleepqueue code in the callout subsystem, which has been removed,
because we now allow callouts to be protected by spinlocks. This
allows us to tear down the callout like done with regular mutexes,

teardown the "td_slpcallout". Further the "TDF_TIMOFAIL" and
