- Optimise the RCU implementation to not allocate and free
ck_epoch_records during runtime. Instead allocate two sets of
ck_epoch_records per CPU for general purpose use. The first set is
only used for reader locks and the second set is only used for
synchronization and barriers and is protected with a regular mutex to
prevent simultaneous issues.
- Move the task structure away from the rcu_head structure and into
the per-CPU structures. This allows the size of the rcu_head structure
to be reduced down to the size of two pointers.
- Fix a bug where the linux_rcu_barrier() function only waited for one
per-CPU epoch record to be completed instead of all.
- Use a critical section or a mutex to protect ck_epoch_begin() and
ck_epoch_end() depending on RCU or SRCU type. All the ck_epoch_xxx()
functions, except ck_epoch_register(), ck_epoch_unregister() and
ck_epoch_recycle() are not re-entrant and needs a critical section or
a mutex to operate in the LinuxKPI, after inspecting the CK
implementation of the above mentioned functions. The simultaneous
issues arise from per-CPU epoch records being shared between multiple
threads depending on the amount of taskswitching and how many threads
are involved with the RCU and SRCU operations.
- Properly free all epoch records by using safe list traversal at
LinuxKPI module unload. It turns out the ck_epoch_recycle() always
have the records on an internal list and use a flag in the epoch
record to track allocated and free entries. This would lead to use
after free during module unload.
- Remove redundant synchronize_rcu() call from the
linux_compat_uninit() function. Let the linux_rcu_runtime_uninit()
function do the final rcu_barrier() instead.

Tasklets are implemented using a taskqueue and a small statemachine on

A set of helper functions have been added to manage the life of the
LinuxKPI task struct. When an external system call or task is invoked,
a check is made to create the task struct by demand. A thread
destructor callback is registered to free the task struct when a
thread exits to avoid memory leaks.
This change lays the ground for emulating the Linux kernel more
closely which is a dependency by the code using the LinuxKPI APIs.

The intended use is to annotate frequently used globals which either rarely
change (and thus can be grouped in the same cacheline) or are an atomic counter
(which means it may benefit from being the only variable in the cacheline).
Linker script support is provided only for amd64. Architectures without it risk
having other variables put in, i.e. as if they were not annotated. This is
harmless from correctness point of view.

FreeBSD supports lazy allocation of PCI BAR, that is, when a device
driver's attach method is invoked, even if the device's PCI BAR
address wasn't initialized, the invocation of bus_alloc_resource_any()
(the call chain: pci_alloc_resource() -> pci_alloc_multi_resource() ->
pci_reserve_map() -> pci_write_bar()) would allocate a proper address
for the PCI BAR and write this 'lazy allocated' address into the PCI
BAR.
This model works fine for native FreeBSD device drivers, but _not_ for
device drivers shared with Linux (e.g. dev/mlx5/mlx5_core/mlx5_main.c
and ofed/drivers/net/mlx4/main.c. Both of them use
pci_request_regions(), which doesn't work properly with the PCI BAR
lazy allocation, because pci_resource_type() -> _pci_get_rle() always
returns NULL, so pci_request_regions() doesn't have the opportunity to
invoke bus_alloc_resource_any(). We now use pci_find_bar() in
pci_resource_type(), which is able to locate all available PCI BARs
even if some of them will be lazy allocated.

There are two macros available which control the behaviour of the

- LINUXKPI_PARAM_PARENT allows the consumer to set the SYSCTL parent
where the modules parameters will be created.
- LINUXKPI_PARAM_PREFIX defines a parameter name prefix, which is
added to all created module parameters.

Linux requires that all IOCTL data resides in userspace. FreeBSD
always moves the main IOCTL structure into a kernel buffer before
invoking the IOCTL handler and then copies it back into userspace,
before returning. Hide this difference in the "linux_copyin()" and
"linux_copyout()" functions by remapping userspace addresses in the
range from 0x10000 to 0x20000, to the kernel IOCTL data buffer.
It is assumed that the userspace code, data and stack segments starts
no lower than memory address 0x400000, which is also stated by "man 1
ld", which means any valid userspace pointer can be passed to regular
LinuxKPI handled IOCTLs.
