Devices that don't implement param() (which means they don't support
hardware parameters such as flow control, baud rate) hardcode the baud

Make it adjustable, but do clamp it between B50 and B115200 to prevent

The advantage of using a separate condvar is that we can just use

multiple threads. It also makes the TTY code easier to understand.
t_dcdwait sounds totally unrelated.
I suspect the usage of bgwait causes a lot of spurious wakeups when
threads are blocked in the background, because they will be woken up

Also wakeup dcdwait when the TTY is abandoned.
Now that we start to use credentials on character devices more often
(because of MPSAFE TTY), move the prison-checks that are in place in the
TTY code into devfs.
Instead of strictly comparing the prisons, use the more common
prison_check() function to compare credentials. This means that
pseudo-terminals are only visible in devfs by processes within the same
jail and parent jails.
Even though regular users in parent jails can now interact with
pseudo-terminals from child jails, this seems to be the right approach.
These processes are also capable of interacting with the jailed
processes anyway, through signals for example.

The code that was in place in exit1() was mainly based on code from the
old TTY layer. The main reason behind this, was because at one moment I
ran a system that had two TTY layers in place at the same time. It is
now sufficient to do the following:
- Remove references from the session structure to the TTY vnode and the
session leader.
- If we have a controlling TTY and the session used by the TTY is equal
to our session, send the SIGHUP.
- If we have a vnode to the controlling TTY which has not been revoked,
revoke it.
While there, change sys/kern/tty.c to use s_ttyp in the comparison
instead of s_ttyvp. It should not make any difference, because s_ttyvp
can only become null when the session leader already left, but it's
nicer to compare against the proper value.
Right now the only way to make tcsetsid(3)/TIOCSCTTY work, is by
ensuring the session leader is dead. This means that an application that
catches SIGHUPs and performs a sleep prevents us from assigning a new
session leader.
Change the code to make it work on revoked TTYs as well. This allows us
to change init(8) to make the shutdown script run in a more clean
environment.
Because our rc scripts also open the /etc/ttyv* nodes, it revokes the
console, preventing startup messages from being displayed.
I really have to think about this. Maybe we should just give the console
its own TTY and let it build on top of other TTYs. I'm still not sure
what to do with input handling there.
Even though I thought I fixed the staircase issue (and I was no longer
able to reproduce it), I got some reports of the issue still being
there. It turns out the staircase effect still occurred when
/dev/console was kept open while killing the getty on the same TTY
(ttyv0).
For some reason I can't figure out how the old TTY code dealt with that,
so I assume the issue has always been there. I only exposed it more by
merging consolectl with ttyv0, which means that the issue was present,
even on systems without a serial console.
I'm now marking the console device as being closed when closing the
regular TTY device node. This means that when the getty shuts down,
init(8) will open /dev/console, which means the termios attributes will
always be reset in this case.

fact that curthread does not own the lock. For shared locks, ownership

I don't want people to override the mutex when allocating a TTY. It has

The advantage of this approach, is that we can just remove a function,

In the original MPSAFE TTY code, I changed the behaviour by returning
EBUSY. I thought this made more sense, because it's basically a race to
see who gets the TTY first.
It turns out this is not a good change, because it also causes EBUSY to
be returned when another process is closing the TTY. This can happen
during startup, when /etc/rc (or one of its children) is still busy
draining its data and /sbin/init is attempting to open the TTY to spawn
a getty.

Just like the old TTY layer, the current MPSAFE TTY layer does not make
any attempt to serialize calls of write(). Data is copied into the
kernel in 256 (TTY_STACKBUF) byte chunks. If a write() call occurs at
the same time, the data may interleave. This is especially likely when
the TTY starts blocking, because the output queue reaches the high
watermark.
I've implemented this by adding a new flag, TTY_BUSY_OUT, which is used
to mark a TTY as having a thread stuck in write(). Because I don't want
non-blocking processes to be possibly blocked by a sleeping thread, I'm
still allowing it to bypass the protection. According to this message,
the Linux kernel returns EAGAIN in such cases, but I think that's a
little too restrictive:

When we leave the console TTY constantly open, we never reset the

place during shutdown, which causes a `staircase effect'.
This patch adds a new TTY flag, TF_OPENED_CONS, which is set when the

the kernel and the pstat(8) utility, I've decided to renumber the TTY
flags. This shouldn't be an issue, because the TTY layer is not yet part

The TTY buffers used the standard <sys/queue.h> lists. Unfortunately
they have a big shortcoming. If you want to have a double linked list,
but no tail pointer, it's still not possible to obtain the previous
element in the list. Inside the buffers we don't need them. This is why
I switched to custom linked list macros. The macros will also keep track
of the amount of items in the list. Because it doesn't use a sentinel,
we can just initialize the queues with zero.
In its simplest form (the output queue), we will only keep two
references to blocks in the queue, namely the head of the list and the
last block in use. All free blocks are stored behind the last block in
use.
I noticed there was a very subtle bug in the previous code: in a very
uncommon corner case, it would uma_zfree() a block in the queue before
calling memcpy() to extract the data from the block.
During startup some of the syscons TTY's are used to set attributes like
the screensaver and mouse options. These actions cause /dev/console to
be rendered unusable.
Fix the issue by leaving the TTY opened when it is used as the console

On RELENG_6 (and probably RELENG_7) we see our syscons windows and
pseudo-terminals have the following buffer sizes:
| LINE RAW CAN OUT IHIWT ILOWT OHWT LWT COL STATE SESS PGID DISC
| ttyv0 0 0 0 7680 6720 2052 256 7 OCcl 1146 1146 term
| ttyp0 0 0 0 7680 6720 1296 256 0 OCc 82033 82033 term
These buffer sizes make no sense, because we often have much more output
than input, but I guess having higher input buffer sizes improves
guarantees of the system.
On MPSAFE TTY I just sent both the input and output buffer sizes to 7
KB, which is pretty big on a standard FreeBSD install with 8 syscons
windows and some PTY's. Reduce the baud rate to 9600 baud, which means
we now have the following buffer sizes:
| LINE INQ CAN LIN LOW OUTQ USE LOW COL SESS PGID STATE
| ttyv0 1920 0 0 192 1984 0 199 7 2401 2401 Oil
| pts/0 1920 0 0 192 1984 0 199 5631 1305 2526 Oi
This is a lot smaller, but for pseudo-devices this should be good
enough. You need to do a lot of punching to fill up a 7.5 KB input
buffer. If it turns out things don't work out this way, we'll just
switch to 19200 baud.
We often run into these very high column numbers when we run curses
applications, because they don't print any newlines. This messes up the
table output of `pstat -t'. If these numbers get really high, they
aren't of any use to the reader anyway. Convert them to `99999' when
they run out of bounds.
One of the pieces of code that I had left alone during the development
of the MPSAFE TTY layer, was tty_cons.c. This file actually has two
different functions:
- It contains low-level console input/output routines (cnputc(), etc).
- It creates /dev/console and wraps all its cdevsw calls to the
appropriate TTY.
This commit reimplements the second set of functions by moving it
directly into the TTY layer. /dev/console is now a character device node
that's basically a regular TTY, but does a lookup of `si_drv1' each time
you open it. d_write has also been changed to call log_console().
d_close() is not present, because we must make sure we don't revoke the
TTY after writing a log message to it.
Even though I'm not convinced this is in line with the future directions
of our console code, it is a good move for now. It removes recursive
locking from the top half of the TTY layer. The previous implementation
called into the TTY layer with Giant held.
I'm renaming tty_cons.c to kern_cons.c now. The code hardly contains any
TTY related bits, so we'd better give it a less misleading name.

Unlike tty_rel_gone() and tty_rel_sess(), the tty_rel_pgrp() routine
does not unlock the TTY. I once had the idea to make the code call
tty_rel_pgrp() and tty_rel_sess(), picking up the TTY lock once. This
turned out a little harder than I expected, so this is how it works now.
It's a lot easier if we just let tty_rel_pgrp() unlock the TTY, because
the other routines do this anyway.
As discussed with Robert on IRC, checking the permissions on
/dev/console to see if we can call TIOCCONS could be unreliable. When we
run a chroot() without a devfs instance mounted inside, it won't
actually check the permissions on the device node inside the devfs
instance.
Using the already existing PRIV_TTY_CONSOLE for this seems like a better

- In the current design, when a TTY decreases its baud rate, it tries to
shrink the queues. This may not always be possible, because it will
not free any blocks that are still filled with data.
Change the TTY queues to store a `quota' value as well, which means it
will not free any blocks when changing the baud rate, but when placing
blocks back into the queue. When the amount of blocks exceeds the
quota, they get freed.
It also fixes some edge cases, where TIOCSETA during read()/
write()-calls could actually make the queue a tiny bit bigger than in
normal cases.
- Don't leak blocks of memory when calling TIOCSETA when the device
driver abandons the TTY while allocating memory.
- Create ttyoutq_init() and ttyinq_init() to initialize the queues,

Reported by: Christian Weisgerber <naddy mips inka de>
The last half year I've been working on a replacement TTY layer for the
FreeBSD kernel. The new TTY layer was designed to improve the following:
- Improved driver model:
The old TTY layer has a driver model that is not abstract enough to
make it friendly to use. A good example is the output path, where the
device drivers directly access the output buffers. This means that an
in-kernel PPP implementation must always convert network buffers into
TTY buffers.
If a PPP implementation would be built on top of the new TTY layer
(still needs a hooks layer, though), it would allow the PPP
implementation to directly hand the data to the TTY driver.
- Improved hotplugging:
With the old TTY layer, it isn't entirely safe to destroy TTY's from
the system. This implementation has a two-step destructing design,
where the driver first abandons the TTY. After all threads have left
the TTY, the TTY layer calls a routine in the driver, which can be
used to free resources (unit numbers, etc).
The pts(4) driver also implements this feature, which means
posix_openpt() will now return PTY's that are created on the fly.
- Improved performance:
One of the major improvements is the per-TTY mutex, which is expected
to improve scalability when compared to the old Giant locking.
Another change is the unbuffered copying to userspace, which is both
used on TTY device nodes and PTY masters.
Upgrading should be quite straightforward. Unlike previous versions,
existing kernel configuration files do not need to be changed, except
when they reference device drivers that are listed in UPDATING.

- Hold the 'tty_list_mutex' lock while we read all the fields out of the

destroy routines could set t_dev to NULL, drop their reference on the
tty and destroy the cdev while the sysctl handler was attempting to
invoke dev2udev() on the cdev being destroyed. This happened when the
sysctl handler read the value of t_dev prior to it being set to NULL
either due to it being stale or due to timing races. By holding the
list lock we guarantee that the destroy routines will block in ttyrel()
in that case and not destroy the cdev until after we've copied all of our
data. We may see a NULL cdev pointer or we may see the previous value,
but the previous value will no longer point to a destroyed cdev if we
see it.
- Fix the ttyfree() routine used by tty device drivers in their detach
methods to use ttyrel() on the tty so we don't leak them. Also, fix it

This problem was found by the recently added TD_NO_SLEEPING assertions for
interrupt handlers.

- Introducing the possibility of using locks different than mutexes
for the knlist locking. In order to do this, we add three arguments to
knlist_init() to specify the functions to use to lock, unlock and
check if the lock is owned. If these arguments are NULL, we assume
mtx_lock, mtx_unlock and mtx_owned, respectively.
- Using the vnode lock for the knlist locking, when doing kqueue operations
on a vnode. This way, we don't have to lock the vnode while holding a
mutex, in filt_vfsread.

Will be happy: everyone
guard against NULL t_modem entry. Otherwise, driver doesn't have t_modem
callback implemented(such like sys/dev/usb/ucycom.c) would panic when
someone opens the driver's associated tty device.

modes on a tty structure.
Both the ".init" and the current settings are initialized allowing
the function to be used both at attach and open time.
The function takes an argument to decide if echoing should be enabled.
Echoing should not be enabled for regular physical serial ports
unless they are consoles, in which case they should be configured
by ttyconsolemode() instead.
Use the new function throughout.
