8f27b08e87 Rename the cv_*wait*() functions to _cv_*wait*() and change their second
argument from a mutex to a lock_object.  Add cv_*wait*() wrapper macros
that accept either a mutex, rwlock, or sx lock as the second argument and
convert it to a lock_object and then call _cv_*wait*().  Basically, the
visible difference is that you can now use rwlocks and sx locks with
condition variables using the same API as with mutexes.

e7573e7ad7 Allow threads to atomically release rw and sx locks while waiting for an
event.  Locking primitives that support this (mtx, rw, and sx) now each
include their own foo_sleep() routine.
- Rename msleep() to _sleep() and change it's 'struct mtx' object to a
  'struct lock_object' pointer.  _sleep() uses the recently added
  lc_unlock() and lc_lock() function pointers for the lock class of the
  specified lock to release the lock while the thread is suspended.
- Add wrappers around _sleep() for mutexes (mtx_sleep()), rw locks
  (rw_sleep()), and sx locks (sx_sleep()).  msleep() still exists and
  is now identical to mtx_sleep(), but it is deprecated.
- Rename SLEEPQ_MSLEEP to SLEEPQ_SLEEP.
- Rewrite much of sleep.9 to not be msleep(9) centric.
- Flesh out the 'RETURN VALUES' section in sleep.9 and add an 'ERRORS'
  section.
- Add __nonnull(1) to _sleep() and msleep_spin() so that the compiler will
  warn if you try to pass a NULL wait channel.  The functions already have
  a KASSERT to that effect.

196baa968a Fix a typo in the last that claimed that only masked signals were caught. 2007-03-09 17:53:16 +00:00
John Baldwin
f499e49c46 Correct descriptions of EINTR and ERESTART errors. Masked signals don't
interrupt sleeps.  Rather, unmasked signals interrupt restarts and can
either interrupt the system call by having it return EINTR in userland or
force the system call to be restarted.

e6b69890ed - Document cv_wait_unlock(9).
- Don't claim that the mutex is atomically reacquired when a cv_wait
  routine returns.  There's nothing atomic or magical about the lock
  reacquire.  The only magic is that we atomically drop the lock by
  placing the thread on the sleep queue before dropping the lock.

39fb485701 Catch up to rev 1.52 of sys/kern/kern_condvar.c. cv_signal() and
cv_broadcast() no longer require that the interlock mutex be held when
called.

c1f3e4bf21 Removed whitespace at end-of-line; no content changes. I simply did
cd src/share; find man[1-9] -type f|xargs perl -pi -e 's/[ \t]+$//'

BTW, what editors are the culprits? I'm using vim and it shows
me whitespace at EOL in troff files with a thick blue block...
