p_candebug() for checking access right for the curproc. p_candebug()
returns EAGAIN for some reasons, in particular, for the process doing

because sysctl handlers are covered by Giant, and often do not sleep.
Break the livelock by dropping Giant and allowing other threads to

One thing I didn't expect many applications to use, was kqueue() on
pseudo-terminal master devices. There are applications that use kqueue()
on the TTY itself (rtorrent, etc). That doesn't mean we shouldn't
implement this. Libraries like libevent use kqueue() by default, which
means they wouldn't be able to use kqueue().
The old TTY layer implements a very broken version of kqueue() by
performing the actual polling on the TTY device.

X-MFC: after shared lookup changes
This changes struct kinfo_filedesc and kinfo_vmentry such that they are
same on both 32 and 64 bit platforms like i386/amd64 and won't require
sysctl wrapping.
Two new OIDs are assigned. The old ones are available under
COMPAT_FREEBSD7 - but it isn't that simple. The superceded interface
was never actually released on 7.x.
The other main change is to pack the data passed to userland via the
sysctl. kf_structsize and kve_structsize are reduced for the copyout.
If you have a process with 100,000+ sockets open, the unpacked records
require a 132MB+ copyout. With packing, it is "only" ~35MB. (Still
seriously unpleasant, but not quite as devastating). A similar problem
exists for the vmentry structure - have lots and lots of shared libraries
and small mmaps and its copyout gets expensive too.
My immediate problem is valgrind. It traditionally achieves this
functionality by parsing procfs output, in a packed format. Secondly, when
tracing 32 bit binaries on amd64 under valgrind, it uses a cross compiled
32 bit binary which ran directly into the differing data structures in 32
vs 64 bit mode. (valgrind uses this to track file descriptor operations
and this therefore affected every single 32 bit binary)
I've added two utility functions to libutil to unpack the structures into
a fixed record length and to make it a little more convenient to use.

Looking at our source code history, it seems the uname(),

setdomainname()'s implementation to use this approach, because we're
duplicating code with sysctl_domainname().
I wasn't able to keep these three routines working in our

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:

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

and server. This replaces the RPC implementation of the NFS client and
server with the newer RPC implementation originally developed
(actually ported from the userland sunrpc code) to support the NFS
Lock Manager. I have tested this code extensively and I believe it is
stable and that performance is at least equal to the legacy RPC
implementation.
The NFS code currently contains support for both the new RPC
implementation and the older legacy implementation inherited from the
original NFS codebase. The default is to use the new implementation -
add the NFS_LEGACYRPC option to fall back to the old code. When I
merge this support back to RELENG_7, I will probably change this so
that users have to 'opt in' to get the new code.
To use RPCSEC_GSS on either client or server, you must build a kernel
which includes the KGSSAPI option and the crypto device. On the
userland side, you must build at least a new libc, mountd, mount_nfs
and gssd. You must install new versions of /etc/rc.d/gssd and
/etc/rc.d/nfsd and add 'gssd_enable=YES' to /etc/rc.conf.
As long as gssd is running, you should be able to mount an NFS
filesystem from a server that requires RPCSEC_GSS authentication. The
mount itself can happen without any kerberos credentials but all
access to the filesystem will be denied unless the accessing user has
a valid ticket file in the standard place (/tmp/krb5cc_<uid>). There
is currently no support for situations where the ticket file is in a
different place, such as when the user logged in via SSH and has
delegated credentials from that login. This restriction is also
present in Solaris and Linux. In theory, we could improve this in
future, possibly using Brooks Davis' implementation of variant
symlinks.
Supporting RPCSEC_GSS on a server is nearly as simple. You must create
service creds for the server in the form 'nfs/<fqdn>@<REALM>' and
install them in /etc/krb5.keytab. The standard heimdal utility ktutil
makes this fairly easy. After the service creds have been created, you
can add a '-sec=krb5' option to /etc/exports and restart both mountd
and nfsd.
The only other difference an administrator should notice is that nfsd
doesn't fork to create service threads any more. In normal operation,
there will be two nfsd processes, one in userland waiting for TCP
connections and one in the kernel handling requests. The latter
process will create as many kthreads as required - these should be
visible via 'top -H'. The code has some support for varying the number
of service threads according to load but initially at least, nfsd uses
a fixed number of threads according to the value supplied to its '-n'
option.

We often run into these very high column numbers when we run curses

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.

"ticks" goes negative. This breaks the signed comparison in softclock.
This causes sleep() to never wake up, tcp to stop, etc etc. This is
bad(TM). Use the SEQ_LT() method from tcp's sequence number comparisons.
Due to the nature of the beast it causes lot of unproductive overhead. This
is especially bad when running SMP kernel on VMWare with several virtual
processors - idle FreeBSD guest with SMP kernel takes 150% host CPU time on my
dual-core MacBook Pro when I am enabling two virtual CPUs, making even host
not very usable. Detect when we are running in the sandbox and reduce HZ
to 10 (can be adjusted via VM_HZ in the kernel config) in such cases. This
brings host CPU usage of idle FreeBSD/SMP on two virtual processors down
to 10%.
Detect most popular VM platforms out there - VMWare, Parallels, VirtualBox
and VirtualPC.

when thread is in kernel mode, it can cause dead loop, now unlock
process lock after acquired sleep queue lock and thread lock to
avoid the problem. This means TDF_NEEDSIGCHK and TDF_NEEDSUSPCHK must
be set with process lock and thread lock being hold at same time.
unnecessary, the normal process lock and thread lock are enough. The
spin lock is still needed for process and thread exiting to mimic
single sched_lock.
rest in kern_getdirentries(). Use kern_getdirentries() to implement
freebsd32_getdirentries(). This fixes a bug where calls to getdirentries()
in 32-bit binaries would trash the 4 bytes after the 'long base' in
userland.
