are no cache misses in or caused by the profiling code.

1) The pmap module has had too many inlines, and so the
object file is simply bigger than it needs to be.
Some common code is also merged into subroutines.
2) Removal of some *evil* PHYS_TO_VM_PAGE macro calls.
Unfortunately, a few have needed to be added also.
The removal caused the need for more vm_page_lookups.
I added lookup hints to minimize the need for the
page table lookup operations.
3) Removal of some bogus performance improvements, that
mostly made the code more complex (tracking individual
page table page updates unnecessarily). Those improvements
actually hurt 386 processors perf (not that people who
worry about perf use 386 processors anymore :-)).
4) Changed pv queue manipulations/structures to be TAILQ's.
5) The pv queue code has had some performance problems since
day one. Some significant scalability issues are resolved
by threading the pv entries from the pmap AND the physical
address instead of just the physical address. This makes
certain pmap operations run much faster. This does
not affect most micro-benchmarks, but should help loaded system
performance *significantly*. DG helped and came up with most
of the solution for this one.
6) Most if not all pmap bit operations follow the pattern:
pmap_test_bit();
pmap_clear_bit();
That made for twice the necessary pv list traversal. The
pmap interface now supports only pmap_tc_bit type operations:
pmap_[test/clear]_modified, pmap_[test/clear]_referenced.
Additionally, the modified routine now takes a vm_page_t arg
instead of a phys address. This eliminates a PHYS_TO_VM_PAGE
operation.
7) Several rewrites of routines that contain redundant code to
use common routines, so that there is a greater likelihood of
keeping the cache footprint smaller.

the high kernel calls into a protocol stack to perform requests on the
user's behalf. We replace the pr_usrreq() entry in struct protosw with a
pointer to a structure containing pointers to functions which implement
the various reuqests; each function is declared with the correct type and
number of arguments. (This is unlike the current scheme in which a quarter
of the requests take arguments of type other than (struct mbuf *) and the
difference is papered over with casts.) There are a few benefits to this
new scheme:
1) Arguments are passed with their correct types, and null-pointer dummies
are no longer necessary.
2) There should be slightly better caching effects from eliminating
the prximity to extraneous code and th switch in pr_usrreq().
3) It becomes much easier to change the types of the arguments to something
other than `struct mbuf *' (e.g.,pushing the work of sosend() into
the protocol as advocated by Van Jacobson).
There is one principal drawback: existing protocol stacks need to
be modified. This is alleviated by compatibility code in
uipc_socket2.c and uipc_domain.c which emulates the new interface
in terms of the old and vice versa.
This idea is not original to me. I read about what Jacobson did
in one of his papers and have tried to implement the first steps
towards something like that here. Much work remains to be done.
The i386 pmap module uses a special area of kernel virtual memory for mapping
of page tables pages when it needs to modify another process's virtual
address space. It's called the 'alternate page table map'. There is only one
of them and it's expected that only one process will be using it at once and
that the operation is atomic.
When the merged VM/buffer cache was implemented over a year ago, it became
necessary to rundown VM pages at I/O completion. The unfortunate and
unforeseen side effect of this is that pmap functions are now called at bio
interrupt time. If there happend to be a process using the alternate page
table map when this I/O completion occurred, it was possible for a different
process's address space to be switched into the alternate page table map -
leaving the current pmap process with the wrong address space mapped when
the interrupt completed. This resulted in BAD things happening like pages
being mapped or removed from the wrong address space, etc.. Since a very
common case of a process modifying another process's address space is during
fork when the kernel stack is inserted, one of the most common manifestations
of this bug was the kernel stack not being mapped properly, resulting in a
silent hang or reboot. This made it VERY difficult to troubleshoot this bug
(I've been trying to figure out the cause of this for >6 months). Fortunately,
the set of conditions that must be true before this problem occurs is
sufficiently rare enough that most people never saw the bug occur. As I/O
rates increase, however, so does the frequency of the crashes. This problem
used to kill wcarchive about every 10 days, but in more recent times when
the traffic exceeded >100GB/day, the machine could barely manage 6 hours of
uptime.
The fix is to make certain that no process has the pages mapped that are
involved in the I/O, before the I/O is started. The pages are made busy, so
no process will be able to map them, either, until the I/O has finished.
This side-steps the issue by still allowing the pmap functions to be called
at interrupt time, but also assuring that the alternate page table map won't
be switched.
Unfortunately, this appears to not be the only cause of this problem. :-(

Now the queue of unaccepted & complete connections is checked directly
for queued sockets. The new code should be functionally equivilent to
the old while being substantially faster - especially in cases where
large numbers of connections are often queued for accept (e.g. http).
Compile and link a new kernel, that will give native ELF support, and
provide the hooks for other ELF interpreters as well.
To make native ELF binaries use John Polstras elf-kit-1.0.1..
For the time being also use his ld-elf.so.1 and put it in
/usr/libexec.
The Linux emulator has been enhanced to also run ELF binaries, it
is however in its very first incarnation.
Just get some Linux ELF libs (Slackware-3.0) and put them in the
prober place (/compat/linux/...).
I've ben able to run all the Slackware-3.0 binaries I've tried
so far.
(No it won't run quake yet :)
residing in a buffer that had been dirtied by a process was being
handled incorrectly. The pages were mistakenly placed into the
cache queue. This would likely have the effect of mmaped page modifications
being lost when I/O system calls were being used simultaneously to
the same locations in a file.

on in the FreeBSD development, I had made a global lock around the
rlist code. This was bogus, and now the lock is maintained on a
per resource list basis. This now allows the rlist code to be used for
almost any non-interrupt level application.
linux binaries from the *BSD a.out loader. This is a hack, but lets me run
static NetBSD binaries. Dynamic binaries are a much bigger problem because
the shared libraries would conflict with our native libraries, so a
/compat/netbsd alternate namespace and translation would be needed.
netscape-2.0 for Linux running all the Java stuff. The scrollbars are now
working, at least on my machine. (whew! :-)
I'm uncomfortable with the size of this commit, but it's too
inter-dependant to easily seperate out.
The main changes:
COMPAT_LINUX is *GONE*. Most of the code has been moved out of the i386
machine dependent section into the linux emulator itself. The int 0x80
syscall code was almost identical to the lcall 7,0 code and a minor tweak
allows them to both be used with the same C code. All kernels can now
just modload the lkm and it'll DTRT without having to rebuild the kernel
first. Like IBCS2, you can statically compile it in with "options LINUX".
A pile of new syscalls implemented, including getdents(), llseek(),
readv(), writev(), msync(), personality(). The Linux-ELF libraries want
to use some of these.
linux_select() now obeys Linux semantics, ie: returns the time remaining
of the timeout value rather than leaving it the original value.
Quite a few bugs removed, including incorrect arguments being used in
syscalls.. eg: mixups between passing the sigset as an int, vs passing
it as a pointer and doing a copyin(), missing return values, unhandled
cases, SIOC* ioctls, etc.
The build for the code has changed. i386/conf/files now knows how
to build linux_genassym and generate linux_assym.h on the fly.
Supporting changes elsewhere in the kernel:
The user-mode signal trampoline has moved from the U area to immediately
below the top of the stack (below PS_STRINGS). This allows the different
binary emulations to have their own signal trampoline code (which gets rid
of the hardwired syscall 103 (sigreturn on BSD, syslog on Linux)) and so
that the emulator can provide the exact "struct sigcontext *" argument to
the program's signal handlers.
The sigstack's "ss_flags" now uses SS_DISABLE and SS_ONSTACK flags, which
have the same values as the re-used SA_DISABLE and SA_ONSTACK which are
intended for sigaction only. This enables the support of a SA_RESETHAND
flag to sigaction to implement the gross SYSV and Linux SA_ONESHOT signal
semantics where the signal handler is reset when it's triggered.
makesyscalls.sh no longer appends the struct sysentvec on the end of the
generated init_sysent.c code. It's a lot saner to have it in a seperate
file rather than trying to update the structure inside the awk script. :-)
At exec time, the dozen bytes or so of signal trampoline code are copied
to the top of the user's stack, rather than obtaining the trampoline code
the old way by getting a clone of the parent's user area. This allows
Linux and native binaries to freely exec each other without getting
trampolines mixed up.
queue type is not set to QUEUE_NONE. This appears to have
caused a hang bug that has been lurking.
2) Fix bugs that brelse'ing locked buffers do not "free" them, but the
code assumes so. This can cause hangs when LFS is used.
3) Use malloced memory for directories when applicable. The amount
of malloced memory is seriously limited, but should decrease the
amount of memory used by an average directory to 1/4 - 1/2 previous.
This capability is fully tunable. (Note that there is no config
parameter, and might never be.)
4) Bias slightly the buffer cache usage towards non-VMIO buffers. Since
the data in VMIO buffers is not lost when the buffer is reclaimed, this
will help performance. This is adjustable also.
is <sys/unistd.h>, with the prototype in <unistd.h>. sys/unistd.h
is visible to the kernel compile, and is #included by unistd.h.
Also, I missed a reference to a static int in the midst of my other diffs.
kern_fork.c: add the tiny bit of code for rfork operation.
kern/sysv_*: shmfork() takes one less arg, it was never used.
sys/shm.h: drop "isvfork" arg from shmfork() prototype
sys/param.h: declare rfork args.. (this is where OpenBSD put it..)
sys/filedesc.h: protos for fdshare/fdcopy.
vm/vm_mmap.c: add minherit code, add rounding to mmap() type args where
it makes sense.
vm/*: drop unused isvfork arg.
Note: this rfork() implementation copies the address space mappings,
it does not connect the mappings together. ie: once the two processes
have split, the pages may be shared, but the address space is not. If one
does a mmap() etc, it does not appear in the other. This makes it not
useful for pthreads, but it is useful in it's own right for having
light-weight threads in a static shared address space.

fixes for previous version of new pipes from Bruce Evans. This
new version:
Supports more properly the semantics of select (BDE).
Supports "OLD_PIPE" correctly (kern_descrip.c, BDE).
Eliminates incorrect EPIPE returns (bash 'pipe broken' messages.)
Much faster yet, currently tuned relatively conservatively -- but now
gives approx 50% more perf than the new pipes code did originally.
(That was about 50% more perf than the original BSD pipe code.)
Known bugs outstanding:
No support for async io (SIGIO). Will be included soon.
Next to do:
Merge support for FIFOs.

The code outputs the dc then calls the device specific externalize
routines to fill in the dc_data area. The old code assumed that dc_data
started one byte from the end of the dc, but with the compiler optimizing
alignment and padding, this isn't always the case. Do an explicit
&(dc.dc_data) - &dc. This fixes lsdev -c which must have been broken
for some time.
1) The calculation didn't account for NMBCLUSTERS, so if a large number of
clusters was specified, it would leave little or no space for kernel
malloc.
2) It was bogusly restricted to v_page_count. This doesn't take into
account the sparseness of the malloc area and would have caused
problems on machines with small amounts of memory. It should probably
instead be changed to set the malloc limit to be constrained by
the amount of memory, but I didn't do this.
First attempt at creating devfs entries for sliced devices. Doesn't
quite work yet, so the heart of it is disabled.
Added bdev and cdev args to dsopen().
Create devfs entries in dsopen() and (unsuccessfully) attempt to make
them go away at the right times. DEVFS is #undefed at the start so
that this shouldn't cause problems.
PT_ATTACH/PT_DETACH implemented now and fully operational.
PT_{GET|SET}{REGS|FPREFS} implemented now, using code shared with procfs
PT_{READ|WRITE}_{I|D} now uses code shared with procfs
ptrace opcodes now fully permission checked, including ownerships.
doing an operation to the u-area on a swapped process should no longer
panic.
running gdb as root works for me now, where it didn't before.
general cleanup..
Note, that this has some tightening of permissions/access checks etc.
Some of these may be going too far.. In particular, the "owner" of the
traced process is enforced. The process that created or attached to
the traced process is now the only one that can "do" things to it.
Speed up for vfs_bio -- addition of a routine bqrelse to greatly diminish
overhead for merged cache.
Efficiency improvement for vfs_cluster. It used to do alot of redundant
calls to cluster_rbuild.
Correct the ordering for vrele of .text and release of credentials.
Use the selective tlb update for 486/586/P6.
Numerous fixes to the size of objects allocated for files. Additionally,
fixes in the various pagers.
Fixes for proper positioning of vnode_pager_setsize in msdosfs and ext2fs.
Fixes in the swap pager for exhausted resources. The pageout code
will not as readily thrash.
Change the page queue flags (PG_ACTIVE, PG_INACTIVE, PG_FREE, PG_CACHE) into
page queue indices (PQ_ACTIVE, PQ_INACTIVE, PQ_FREE, PQ_CACHE),
thereby improving efficiency of several routines.
Eliminate even more unnecessary vm_page_protect operations.
Significantly speed up process forks.
Make vm_object_page_clean more efficient, thereby eliminating the pause
that happens every 30seconds.
Make sequential clustered writes B_ASYNC instead of B_DELWRI even in the
case of filesystems mounted async.
Fix a panic with busy pages when write clustering is done for non-VMIO
buffers.
