conflicts with other events already allocated to other systems in
OpenBSM. Assign a new globally unique identifier and conform
better to the AUE_ event naming scheme.
This is a stopgap until a new OpenBSM import is done with the
correct identifier, so we'll maintain this as a local diff in svn
until then.

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.

user-mode lock manager, build a kernel with the NFSLOCKD option and
add '-k' to 'rpc_lockd_flags' in rc.conf.
Highlights include:
* Thread-safe kernel RPC client - many threads can use the same RPC
client handle safely with replies being de-multiplexed at the socket
upcall (typically driven directly by the NIC interrupt) and handed
off to whichever thread matches the reply. For UDP sockets, many RPC
clients can share the same socket. This allows the use of a single
privileged UDP port number to talk to an arbitrary number of remote
hosts.
* Single-threaded kernel RPC server. Adding support for multi-threaded
server would be relatively straightforward and would follow
approximately the Solaris KPI. A single thread should be sufficient
for the NLM since it should rarely block in normal operation.
* Kernel mode NLM server supporting cancel requests and granted
callbacks. I've tested the NLM server reasonably extensively - it
passes both my own tests and the NFS Connectathon locking tests
running on Solaris, Mac OS X and Ubuntu Linux.
* Userland NLM client supported. While the NLM server doesn't have
support for the local NFS client's locking needs, it does have to
field async replies and granted callbacks from remote NLMs that the
local client has contacted. We relay these replies to the userland
rpc.lockd over a local domain RPC socket.
* Robust deadlock detection for the local lock manager. In particular
it will detect deadlocks caused by a lock request that covers more
than one blocking request. As required by the NLM protocol, all
deadlock detection happens synchronously - a user is guaranteed that
if a lock request isn't rejected immediately, the lock will
eventually be granted. The old system allowed for a 'deferred
deadlock' condition where a blocked lock request could wake up and
find that some other deadlock-causing lock owner had beaten them to
the lock.
* Since both local and remote locks are managed by the same kernel
locking code, local and remote processes can safely use file locks
for mutual exclusion. Local processes have no fairness advantage
compared to remote processes when contending to lock a region that
has just been unlocked - the local lock manager enforces a strict
first-come first-served model for both local and remote lockers.

implement shm_open(2) and shm_unlink(2) in the kernel:
- Each shared memory file descriptor is associated with a swap-backed vm
object which provides the backing store. Each descriptor starts off with
a size of zero, but the size can be altered via ftruncate(2). The shared
memory file descriptors also support fstat(2). read(2), write(2),
ioctl(2), select(2), poll(2), and kevent(2) are not supported on shared
memory file descriptors.
- shm_open(2) and shm_unlink(2) are now implemented as system calls that
manage shared memory file descriptors. The virtual namespace that maps
pathnames to shared memory file descriptors is implemented as a hash
table where the hash key is generated via the 32-bit Fowler/Noll/Vo hash
of the pathname.
- As an extension, the constant 'SHM_ANON' may be specified in place of the
path argument to shm_open(2). In this case, an unnamed shared memory
file descriptor will be created similar to the IPC_PRIVATE key for
shmget(2). Note that the shared memory object can still be shared among
processes by sharing the file descriptor via fork(2) or sendmsg(2), but
it is unnamed. This effectively serves to implement the getmemfd() idea
bandied about the lists several times over the years.
- The backing store for shared memory file descriptors are garbage
collected when they are not referenced by any open file descriptors or
the shm_open(2) virtual namespace.

Pointy hats to: several
sysctl routines and state. Add some code to use it for signalling the need
to downconvert a data structure to 32 bits on a 64 bit OS when requested by
a 32 bit app.
I tried to do this in a generic abi wrapper that intercepted the sysctl
oid's, or looked up the format string etc, but it was a real can of worms
that turned into a fragile mess before I even got it partially working.
With this, we can now run 'sysctl -a' on a 32 bit sysctl binary and have
it not abort. Things like netstat, ps, etc have a long way to go.
This also fixes a bug in the kern.ps_strings and kern.usrstack hacks.
These do matter very much because they are used by libc_r and other things.
After some discussion the best option seems to be to signal the thread's
death from within the kernel. This requires that thr_exit() take an

the raw values including for child process statistics and only compute the
system and user timevals on demand.
- Fix the various kern_wait() syscall wrappers to only pass in a rusage
pointer if they are going to use the result.
- Add a kern_getrusage() function for the ABI syscalls to use so that they
don't have to play stackgap games to call getrusage().
- Fix the svr4_sys_times() syscall to just call calcru() to calculate the
times it needs rather than calling getrusage() twice with associated
stackgap, etc.
- Add a new rusage_ext structure to store raw time stats such as tick counts
for user, system, and interrupt time as well as a bintime of the total
runtime. A new p_rux field in struct proc replaces the same inline fields
from struct proc (i.e. p_[isu]ticks, p_[isu]u, and p_runtime). A new p_crux
field in struct proc contains the "raw" child time usage statistics.
ruadd() has been changed to handle adding the associated rusage_ext
structures as well as the values in rusage. Effectively, the values in
rusage_ext replace the ru_utime and ru_stime values in struct rusage. These
two fields in struct rusage are no longer used in the kernel.
- calcru() has been split into a static worker function calcru1() that
calculates appropriate timevals for user and system time as well as updating
the rux_[isu]u fields of a passed in rusage_ext structure. calcru() uses a
copy of the process' p_rux structure to compute the timevals after updating
the runtime appropriately if any of the threads in that process are
currently executing. It also now only locks sched_lock internally while
doing the rux_runtime fixup. calcru() now only requires the caller to
hold the proc lock and calcru1() only requires the proc lock internally.
calcru() also no longer allows callers to ask for an interrupt timeval
since none of them actually did.
- calcru() now correctly handles threads executing on other CPUs.
- A new calccru() function computes the child system and user timevals by
calling calcru1() on p_crux. Note that this means that any code that wants
child times must now call this function rather than reading from p_cru
directly. This function also requires the proc lock.
- This finishes the locking for rusage and friends so some of the Giant locks
in exit1() and kern_wait() are now gone.
- The locking in ttyinfo() has been tweaked so that a shared lock of the
proctree lock is used to protect the process group rather than the process
group lock. By holding this lock until the end of the function we now
ensure that the process/thread that we pick to dump info about will no
longer vanish while we are trying to output its info to the console.

assigned to that thread. The primary reason for this change is that
libthr now internally uses the same ID as the debugger and the kernel
when referencing to a kernel thread. This allows us to implement the
support for debugging without additional translations and/or mappings.
To preserve the ABI, the 1:1 threading syscalls, including the umtx
locking API have not been changed to work on a lwpid_t. Instead the
1:1 threading syscalls operate on long and the umtx locking API has
not been changed except for the contested bit. Previously this was
the least significant bit. Now it's the most significant bit. Since
the contested bit should not be tested by userland, this change is
not expected to be visible. Just to be sure, UMTX_CONTESTED has been
