e8444a7e6f CPU time accounting speedup (step 2)
Keep accounting time (in per-cpu) cputicks and the statistics counts
in the thread and summarize into struct proc when at context switch.

Don't reach across CPUs in calcru().

Add code to calibrate the top speed of cpu_tickrate() for variable
cpu_tick hardware (like TSC on power managed machines).

Don't enforce monotonicity (at least for now) in calcru.  While the
calibrated cpu_tickrate ramps up it may not be true.

Use 27MHz counter on i386/Geode.

Use TSC on amd64 & i386 if present.

Use tick counter on sparc64

5b1a8eb397 Modify the way we account for CPU time spent (step 1)
Keep track of time spent by the cpu in various contexts in units of
"cputicks" and scale to real-world microsec^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hclock_t
only when somebody wants to inspect the numbers.

For now "cputicks" are still derived from the current timecounter
and therefore things should by definition remain sensible also on
SMP machines.  (The main reason for this first milestone commit is
to verify that hypothesis.)

On slower machines, the avoided multiplications to normalize timestams
at every context switch, comes out as a 5-7% better score on the
unixbench/context1 microbenchmark.  On more modern hardware no change
in performance is seen.

b241b0a239 Since p_cansee will end up dereferencing p_ucred, don't check for p_ucred
equal to NULL several times later.  p_ucred "should probably not" be NULL
if the process isn't PRS_NEW anyway.  This is strongly reinforced by the fact
that we don't see frequent crashes here.  Remove the checks after p_cansee and
add a KASSERT right before it.

2c255e9df6 Moderate rewrite of kernel ktrace code to attempt to generally improve
reliability when tracing fast-moving processes or writing traces to
slow file systems by avoiding unbounded queueuing and dropped records.
Record loss was previously possible when the global pool of records
become depleted as a result of record generation outstripping record
commit, which occurred quickly in many common situations.

These changes partially restore the 4.x model of committing ktrace
records at the point of trace generation (synchronous), but maintain
the 5.x deferred record commit behavior (asynchronous) for situations
where entering VFS and sleeping is not possible (i.e., in the
scheduler).  Records are now queued per-process as opposed to
globally, with processes responsible for committing records from their
own context as required.

- Eliminate the ktrace worker thread and global record queue, as they
  are no longer used.  Keep the global free record list, as records
  are still used.

- Add a per-process record queue, which will hold any asynchronously
  generated records, such as from context switches.  This replaces the
  global queue as the place to submit asynchronous records to.

- When a record is committed asynchronously, simply queue it to the
  process.

- When a record is committed synchronously, first drain any pending
  per-process records in order to maintain ordering as best we can.
  Currently ordering between competing threads is provided via a global
  ktrace_sx, but a per-process flag or lock may be desirable in the
  future.

- When a process returns to user space following a system call, trap,
  signal delivery, etc, flush any pending records.

- When a process exits, flush any pending records.

- Assert on process tear-down that there are no pending records.

- Slightly abstract the notion of being "in ktrace", which is used to
  prevent the recursive generation of records, as well as generating
  traces for ktrace events.

Future work here might look at changing the set of events marked for
synchronous and asynchronous record generation, re-balancing queue
depth, timeliness of commit to disk, and so on.  I.e., performing a
drain every (n) records.

ebceaf6dc7 Add support for queueing SIGCHLD same as other UNIX systems did.
For each child process whose status has been changed, a SIGCHLD instance
is queued, if the signal is stilling pending, and process changed status
several times, signal information is updated to reflect latest process
status. If wait() returns because the status of a child process is
available, pending SIGCHLD signal associated with the child process is
discarded. Any other pending SIGCHLD signals remain pending.

The signal information is allocated at the same time when proc structure
is allocated, if process signal queue is fully filled or there is a memory
shortage, it can still send the signal to process.

There is a booting time tunable kern.sigqueue.queue_sigchild which
can control the behavior, setting it to zero disables the SIGCHLD queueing
feature, the tunable will be removed if the function is proved that it is
stable enough.

Tested on: i386 (SMP and UP)

5032ff8197 Always wire the sysctl output buffer in sysctl_kern_proc() before
calling sysctl_out_proc().  -- fix from jhb

Move the code in fill_kinfo_thread() that gathers data from struct proc
into the new function fill_kinfo_proc_only().

Change all callers of fill_kinfo_thread() to call both
fill_kinfo_proc_only() and fill_kinfo() thread.  When gathering
data from a multi-threaded process, fill_kinfo_proc_only() only needs
to be called once.

Grab sched_lock before accessing the process thread list or calling
fill_kinfo_thread().

c6a37e8413 Divorce critical sections from spinlocks. Critical sections as denoted by
critical_enter() and critical_exit() are now solely a mechanism for
deferring kernel preemptions.  They no longer have any affect on
interrupts.  This means that standalone critical sections are now very
cheap as they are simply unlocked integer increments and decrements for the
common case.

Spin mutexes now use a separate KPI implemented in MD code: spinlock_enter()
and spinlock_exit().  This KPI is responsible for providing whatever MD
guarantees are needed to ensure that a thread holding a spin lock won't
be preempted by any other code that will try to lock the same lock.  For
now all archs continue to block interrupts in a "spinlock section" as they
did formerly in all critical sections.  Note that I've also taken this
opportunity to push a few things into MD code rather than MI.  For example,
critical_fork_exit() no longer exists.  Instead, MD code ensures that new
threads have the correct state when they are created.  Also, we no longer
try to fixup the idlethreads for APs in MI code.  Instead, each arch sets
the initial curthread and adjusts the state of the idle thread it borrows
in order to perform the initial context switch.

This change is largely a big NOP, but the cleaner separation it provides
will allow for more efficient alternative locking schemes in other parts
of the kernel (bare critical sections rather than per-CPU spin mutexes
for per-CPU data for example).

78c85e8dfc Rework how we store process times in the kernel such that we always store
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.

ed062c8d66 Refactor a bunch of scheduler code to give basically the same behaviour
but with slightly cleaned up interfaces.

The KSE structure has become the same as the "per thread scheduler
private data" structure. In order to not make the diffs too great
one is #defined as the other at this time.

The KSE (or td_sched) structure is  now allocated per thread and has no
allocation code of its own.

Concurrency for a KSEGRP is now kept track of via a simple pair of counters
rather than using KSE structures as tokens.

Since the KSE structure is different in each scheduler, kern_switch.c
is now included at the end of each scheduler. Nothing outside the
scheduler knows the contents of the KSE (aka td_sched) structure.

The fields in the ksegrp structure that are to do with the scheduler's
queueing mechanisms are now moved to the kg_sched structure.
(per ksegrp scheduler private data structure). In other words how the
scheduler queues and keeps track of threads is no-one's business except
the scheduler's. This should allow people to write experimental
schedulers with completely different internal structuring.

A scheduler call sched_set_concurrency(kg, N) has been added that
notifies teh scheduler that no more than N threads from that ksegrp
should be allowed to be on concurrently scheduled. This is also
used to enforce 'fainess' at this time so that a ksegrp with
10000 threads can not swamp a the run queue and force out a process
with 1 thread, since the current code will not set the concurrency above
NCPU, and both schedulers will not allow more than that many
onto the system run queue at a time. Each scheduler should eventualy develop
their own methods to do this now that they are effectively separated.

Rejig libthr's kernel interface to follow the same code paths as
linkse for scope system threads. This has slightly hurt libthr's performance
but I will work to recover as much of it as I can.

Thread exit code has been cleaned up greatly.
exit and exec code now transitions a process back to
'standard non-threaded mode' before taking the next step.

6cbea71c82 Cause pfind() not to return processes in the PRS_NEW state. As a result,
threads consuming the result of pfind() will not need to check for a NULL
credential pointer or other signs of an incompletely created process.
However, this also means that pfind() cannot be used to test for the
existence or find such a process.  Annotate pfind() to indicate that this
is the case.  A review of curent consumers seems to indicate that this is
not a problem for any of them.  This closes a number of race conditions
that could result in NULL pointer dereferences and related failure modes.
Other related races continue to exist, especially during iteration of the

  zone constructor wants to be able to fail if it cannot suballocate an
  mbuf cluster, and the mbuf allocators want to be able to fail in general
  in a MAC kernel if the MAC mbuf initializer fails.  This fixes the
