0a15e5d30d Remove all the checks on curthread != NULL with the exception of some MD
trap checks (eg. printtrap()).

Generally this check is not needed anymore, as there is not a legitimate
case where curthread != NULL, after pcpu 0 area has been properly
initialized.

7d43ca696e - Don't do a WITNESS_SAVE() on the interlock if it is Giant in the condition
variable wait routines.  DROP_GIANT() already manages that state in the
  Giant interlock case.

414e7679cb Permit Giant to be passed as the explicit interlock either to
msleep/mtx_sleep or the various cv_*wait*() routines.  Currently, the
"unlock" behavior of PDROP and cv_wait_unlock() with Giant is not
permitted as it is will be confusing since Giant is fully unrecursed and
unlocked during a thread sleep.

This is handy for subsystems which wish to allow unlocked drivers to
continue to use Giant such as CAM, the new TTY layer, and the new USB
stack.  CAM currently uses a hack that I told Scott to use because I
really didn't want to permit this behavior, and the TTY and USB patches
both have various patches to permit this.

da7bbd2c08 If a thread that is swapped out is made runnable, then the setrunnable()
routine wakes up proc0 so that proc0 can swap the thread back in.
Historically, this has been done by waking up proc0 directly from
setrunnable() itself via a wakeup().  When waking up a sleeping thread
that was swapped out (the usual case when waking proc0 since only sleeping
threads are eligible to be swapped out), this resulted in a bit of
recursion (e.g. wakeup() -> setrunnable() -> wakeup()).

With sleep queues having separate locks in 6.x and later, this caused a
spin lock LOR (sleepq lock -> sched_lock/thread lock -> sleepq lock).
An attempt was made to fix this in 7.0 by making the proc0 wakeup use
the ithread mechanism for doing the wakeup.  However, this required
grabbing proc0's thread lock to perform the wakeup.  If proc0 was asleep
elsewhere in the kernel (e.g. waiting for disk I/O), then this degenerated
into the same LOR since the thread lock would be some other sleepq lock.

Fix this by deferring the wakeup of the swapper until after the sleepq
lock held by the upper layer has been locked.  The setrunnable() routine
now returns a boolean value to indicate whether or not proc0 needs to be
woken up.  The end result is that consumers of the sleepq API such as
*sleep/wakeup, condition variables, sx locks, and lockmgr, have to wakeup
proc0 if they get a non-zero return value from sleepq_abort(),
sleepq_broadcast(), or sleepq_signal().

c5aa6b581d - Pass the priority argument from *sleep() into sleepq and down into
sched_sleep().  This removes extra thread_lock() acquisition and
   allows the scheduler to decide what to do with the static boost.
 - Change the priority arguments to cv_* to match sleepq/msleep/etc.
   where 0 means no priority change.  Catch -1 in cv_broadcastpri() and
   convert it to 0 for now.
 - Set a flag when sleeping in a way that is compatible with swapping
   since direct priority comparisons are meaningless now.
 - Add a sysctl to ule, kern.sched.static_boost, that defaults to on which
   controls the boost behavior.  Turning it off gives better performance
   in some workloads but needs more investigation.
 - While we're modifying sleepq, change signal and broadcast to both
   return with the lock held as the lock was held on enter.

- Adapt sleepqueues to the new thread_lock() mechanism.
 - Delay assigning the sleep queue spinlock as the thread lock until after
   we've checked for signals.  It is illegal for a thread to return in
   mi_switch() with any lock assigned to td_lock other than the scheduler
   locks.
 - Change sleepq_catch_signals() to do the switch if necessary to simplify

 - Simplify timeout handling now that locking a sleeping thread has the
   side-effect of locking the sleepqueue.  Some previous races are no

94f0972bec Fix a long standing race between sleep queue and thread
suspension code. When a thread A is going to sleep, it calls
sleepq_catch_signals() to detect any pending signals or thread
suspension request, if nothing happens, it returns without
holding process lock or scheduler lock, this opens a race
window which allows thread B to come in and do process
suspension work, however since A is still at running state,
thread B can do nothing to A, thread A continues, and puts
itself into actually sleeping state, but B has never seen it,
and it sits there forever until B is woken up by other threads
sometimes later(this can be very long delay or never
happen). Fix this bug by forcing sleepq_catch_signals to
return with scheduler lock held.
Fix sleepq_abort() by passing it an interrupted code, previously,
it worked as wakeup_one(), and the interruption can not be
identified correctly by sleep queue code when the sleeping
thread is resumed.
Let thread_suspend_check() returns EINTR or ERESTART, so sleep
queue no longer has to use SIGSTOP as a hack to build a return
value.

2ff0e645d1 Refine the turnstile and sleep queue interfaces just a bit:
- Add a new _lock() call to each API that locks the associated chain lock
  for a lock_object pointer or wait channel.  The _lookup() functions now
  require that the chain lock be locked via _lock() when they are called.
- Change sleepq_add(), turnstile_wait() and turnstile_claim() to lookup
  the associated queue structure internally via _lookup() rather than
  accepting a pointer from the caller.  For turnstiles, this means that
  the actual lookup of the turnstile in the hash table is only done when
  the thread actually blocks rather than being done on each loop iteration
  in _mtx_lock_sleep().  For sleep queues, this means that sleepq_lookup()
  is no longer used outside of the sleep queue code except to implement an
  assertion in cv_destroy().
- Change sleepq_broadcast() and sleepq_signal() to require that the chain
  lock is already required.  For condition variables, this lets the
  cv_broadcast() and cv_signal() functions lock the sleep queue chain lock
  while testing the waiters count.  This means that the waiters count
  internal to condition variables is no longer protected by the interlock
  mutex and cv_broadcast() and cv_signal() now no longer require that the
  interlock be held when they are called.  This lets consumers of condition
  variables drop the lock before waking other threads which can result in
  fewer context switches.

007ddf7e7a Now that the return value semantics of cv's for multithreaded processes
have been unified with that of msleep(9), further refine the sleepq
interface and consolidate some duplicated code:
- Move the pre-sleep checks for theaded processes into a
  thread_sleep_check() function in kern_thread.c.
- Move all handling of TDF_SINTR to be internal to subr_sleepqueue.c.
  Specifically, if a thread is awakened by something other than a signal
  while checking for signals before going to sleep, clear TDF_SINTR in
  sleepq_catch_signals().  This removes a sched_lock lock/unlock combo in
  that edge case during an interruptible sleep.  Also, fix
  sleepq_check_signals() to properly handle the condition if TDF_SINTR is
  clear rather than requiring the callers of the sleepq API to notice
  this edge case and call a non-_sig variant of sleepq_wait().
- Clarify the flags arguments to sleepq_add(), sleepq_signal() and
  sleepq_broadcast() by creating an explicit submask for sleepq types.
  Also, add an explicit SLEEPQ_MSLEEP type rather than a magic number of
  0.  Also, add a SLEEPQ_INTERRUPTIBLE flag for use with sleepq_add() and
  move the setting of TDF_SINTR to sleepq_add() if this flag is set rather
  than sleepq_catch_signals().  Note that it is the caller's responsibility
  to ensure that sleepq_catch_signals() is called if and only if this flag
  is passed to the preceeding sleepq_add().  Note that this also removes a
  sched_lock lock/unlock pair from sleepq_catch_signals().  It also ensures
  that for an interruptible sleep, TDF_SINTR is always set when
  TD_ON_SLEEPQ() is true.

9000d57d57 Associate a simple count of waiters with each condition variable. The
count is protected by the mutex that protects the condition, so the count
does not require any extra locking or atomic operations.  It serves as an
optimization to avoid calling into the sleepqueue code at all if there are
no waiters.

Note that the count can get temporarily out of sync when threads sleeping
on a condition variable time out or are aborted.  However, it doesn't hurt
to call the sleepqueue code for either a signal or a broadcast when there
are no waiters, and the count is never out of sync in the opposite
direction unless we have more than INT_MAX sleeping threads.

44f3b09204 Switch the sleep/wakeup and condition variable implementations to use the
sleep queue interface:
- Sleep queues attempt to merge some of the benefits of both sleep queues
  and condition variables.  Having sleep qeueus in a hash table avoids
  having to allocate a queue head for each wait channel.  Thus, struct cv
  has shrunk down to just a single char * pointer now.  However, the
  hash table does not hold threads directly, but queue heads.  This means
  that once you have located a queue in the hash bucket, you no longer have
  to walk the rest of the hash chain looking for threads.  Instead, you have
  a list of all the threads sleeping on that wait channel.
- Outside of the sleepq code and the sleep/cv code the kernel no longer
  differentiates between cv's and sleep/wakeup.  For example, calls to
  abortsleep() and cv_abort() are replaced with a call to sleepq_abort().
  Thus, the TDF_CVWAITQ flag is removed.  Also, calls to unsleep() and
  cv_waitq_remove() have been replaced with calls to sleepq_remove().
- The sched_sleep() function no longer accepts a priority argument as
  sleep's no longer inherently bump the priority.  Instead, this is soley
  a propery of msleep() which explicitly calls sched_prio() before
  blocking.
- The TDF_ONSLEEPQ flag has been dropped as it was never used.  The
  associated TDF_SET_ONSLEEPQ and TDF_CLR_ON_SLEEPQ macros have also been
  dropped and replaced with a single explicit clearing of td_wchan.
  TD_SET_ONSLEEPQ() would really have only made sense if it had taken
  the wait channel and message as arguments anyway.  Now that that only
  happens in one place, a macro would be overkill.

93a7aa79d6 Add code to ddb to allow backtracing an arbitrary thread.
(show thread {address})

Remove the IDLE kse state and replace it with a change in
the way threads sahre KSEs. Every KSE now has a thread, which is
considered its "owner" however a KSE may also be lent to other
threads in the same group to allow completion of in-kernel work.
n this case the owner remains the same and the KSE will revert to the
owner when the other work has been completed.

All creations of upcalls etc. is now done from
kse_reassign() which in turn is called from mi_switch or
thread_exit(). This means that special code can be removed from
msleep() and cv_wait().

kse_release() does not leave a KSE with no thread any more but
converts the existing thread into teh KSE's owner, and sets it up
for doing an upcall. It is just inhibitted from being scheduled until
there is some reason to do an upcall.

Remove all trace of the kse_idle queue since it is no-longer needed.
"Idle" KSEs are now on the loanable queue.

48bfcddd94 Round out the facilty for a 'bound' thread to loan out its KSE
in specific situations. The owner thread must be blocked, and the
borrower can not proceed back to user space with the borrowed KSE.
The borrower will return the KSE on the next context switch where
teh owner wants it back. This removes a lot of possible
race conditions and deadlocks. It is consceivable that the
borrower should inherit the priority of the owner too.
that's another discussion and would be simple to do.

Also, as part of this, the "preallocatd spare thread" is attached to the
thread doing a syscall rather than the KSE. This removes the need to lock
the scheduler when we want to access it, as it's now "at hand".

DDB now shows a lot mor info for threaded proceses though it may need
some optimisation to squeeze it all back into 80 chars again.
(possible JKH project)

Upcalls are now "bound" threads, but "KSE Lending" now means that
other completing syscalls can be completed using that KSE before the upcall
finally makes it back to the UTS. (getting threads OUT OF THE KERNEL is
one of the highest priorities in the KSE system.) The upcall when it happens
will present all the completed syscalls to the KSE for selection.
