potential lock order reversal and code reentrance issue in which the

An alternative to removal would be to use the netisr, as a comment I

the lack of any consumers or the easy possibility of consumers (kernel

not allow multicast filter programming when controller is busy to
send/receive frames. So it used to mark need_mcsetup bit and defer
multicast filter programming until controller becomes idle state.
To detect when the controller is idle fxp(4) relied on Tx
completion interrupt with NOP command and fxp_start_body and
fxp_intr_body had to see whether pending multicast filter
programming was requested. This resulted in very complex logic and
sometimes it did not work as expected.
Since the controller should be in idle state before any multicast
filter modifications I changed it to reinitialize the controller
whenever multicast filter programming is required. This is the same
way what OpenBSD and NetBSD does. Also I added IFF_DRV_RUNNING

it is absolutely needed.

Instead of strictly comparing the prisons, use the more common

pseudo-terminals are only visible in devfs by processes within the same

Even though regular users in parent jails can now interact with

These processes are also capable of interacting with the jailed

NGROUPS_MAX, eliminate ABI dependencies on them, and raise the to 1024
and 1023 respectively. (Previously they were equal, but under a close
reading of POSIX, NGROUPS_MAX was defined to be too large by 1 since it
is the number of supplemental groups, not total number of groups.)
The bulk of the change consists of converting the struct ucred member
cr_groups from a static array to a pointer. Do the equivalent in
kinfo_proc.
Introduce new interfaces crcopysafe() and crsetgroups() for duplicating
a process credential before modifying it and for setting group lists
respectively. Both interfaces take care for the details of allocating
groups array. crsetgroups() takes care of truncating the group list
to the current maximum (NGROUPS) if necessary. In the future,
crsetgroups() may be responsible for insuring invariants such as sorting
the supplemental groups to allow groupmember() to be implemented as a
binary search.
Because we can not change struct xucred without breaking application
ABIs, we leave it alone and introduce a new XU_NGROUPS value which is
always 16 and is to be used or NGRPS as appropriate for things such as
NFS which need to use no more than 16 groups. When feasible, truncate
the group list rather than generating an error.
Minor changes:
- Reduce the number of hand rolled versions of groupmember().
- Do not assign to both cr_gid and cr_groups[0].
- Modify ipfw to cache ucreds instead of part of their contents since

o set the port address "just in case"
o add NPE-A support to the tx done qmgr callback
Actually, as it did receive few tuning, the support is disabled by
default, but it can opt-in with the option ADAPTIVE_LOCKMGRS.
Due to the nature of lockmgrs, adaptive spinning needs to be
selectively enabled for any interested lockmgr.
The support is bi-directional, or, in other ways, it will work in both
cases if the lock is held in read or write way. In particular, the
read path is passible of further tunning using the sysctls
debug.lockmgr.retries and debug.lockmgr.loops . Ideally, such sysctls
should be axed or compiled out before release.
Addictionally note that adaptive spinning doesn't cope well with
LK_SLEEPFAIL. The reason is that many (and probabilly all) consumers
of LK_SLEEPFAIL are mainly interested in knowing if the interlock was
dropped or not in order to reacquire it and re-test initial conditions.
This directly interacts with adaptive spinning because lockmgr needs
to drop the interlock while spinning in order to avoid a deadlock
(further details in the comments inside the patch).
Final note: finding someone willing to help on tuning this with
relevant workloads would be either very important and appreciated.

The code that was in place in exit1() was mainly based on code from the
old TTY layer. The main reason behind this, was because at one moment I
ran a system that had two TTY layers in place at the same time. It is
now sufficient to do the following:
- Remove references from the session structure to the TTY vnode and the
session leader.
- If we have a controlling TTY and the session used by the TTY is equal
to our session, send the SIGHUP.
- If we have a vnode to the controlling TTY which has not been revoked,
revoke it.
While there, change sys/kern/tty.c to use s_ttyp in the comparison
instead of s_ttyvp. It should not make any difference, because s_ttyvp
can only become null when the session leader already left, but it's
nicer to compare against the proper value.

function on other operating systems such as Solaris, DFly, NetBSD, and
OpenBSD. One difference from other *BSD is that this closefrom() does not
fail with any errors. In practice, while the manpages for NetBSD and
OpenBSD claim that they return EINTR, they ignore internal errors from
close() and never return EINTR. DFly does return EINTR, but for the common
use case (closing fd's prior to execve()), the caller really wants all
fd's closed and returning EINTR just forces callers to call closefrom() in
a loop until it stops failing.
Note that this implementation of closefrom(2) does not make any effort to
resolve userland races with open(2) in other threads. As such, it is not

memory with 4MB pages was added to pmap_object_init_pt(). This code
assumes that the pages of a OBJT_DEVICE object are always physically
contiguous. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. For example,
jhb@ informs me that the recently introduced /dev/ksyms driver creates
a OBJT_DEVICE object that violates this assumption. Thus, this
revision modifies pmap_object_init_pt() to abort the mapping if the
OBJT_DEVICE object's pages are not physically contiguous. This
revision also changes some inconsistent if not buggy behavior. For
example, the i386 version aborts if the first 4MB virtual page that
would be mapped is already valid. However, it incorrectly replaces
any subsequent 4MB virtual page mappings that it encounters,
potentially leaking a page table page. The amd64 version has a bug of
my own creation. It potentially busies the wrong page and always an
insufficent number of pages if it blocks allocating a page table page.
To my knowledge, there have been no reports of these bugs, hence,
their persistance. I suspect that the existing restrictions that
pmap_object_init_pt() placed on the OBJT_DEVICE objects that it would
choose to map, for example, that the first page must be aligned on a 2
or 4MB physical boundary and that the size of the mapping must be a
multiple of the large page size, were enough to avoid triggering the
bug for drivers like ksyms. However, one side effect of testing the
OBJT_DEVICE object's pages for physical contiguity is that a dubious
difference between pmap_object_init_pt() and the standard path for
mapping devices pages, i.e., vm_fault(), has been eliminated.
Previously, pmap_object_init_pt() would only instantiate the first
PG_FICTITOUS page being mapped because it never examined the rest.
Now, however, pmap_object_init_pt() uses the new function
vm_object_populate() to instantiate them all (in order to support
testing their physical contiguity). These pages need to be
instantiated for the mechanism that I have prototyped for
automatically maintaining the consistency of the PAT settings across
multiple mappings, particularly, amd64's direct mapping, to work.

network stack when reentering the inbound path from netgraph, and
force queueing of mbufs at the outbound netgraph node.
The mechanism relies on two components. First, in netgraph nodes
where outbound path of the network stack calls into netgraph, the
current thread has to be appropriately marked using the new
NG_OUTBOUND_THREAD_REF() macro before proceeding to call further
into the netgraph topology, and unmarked using the
NG_OUTBOUND_THREAD_UNREF() macro before returning to the caller.
Second, netgraph nodes which can potentially reenter the network
stack in the inbound path have to mark their inbound hooks using
NG_HOOK_SET_TO_INBOUND() macro. The netgraph framework will then
detect when there is a danger of a call graph looping back from
outbound to inbound path via netgraph, and defer handing off the
mbufs to the "inbound" node to a worker thread with a clean stack.
In this first pass only the most obvious netgraph nodes have been
updated to ensure no outbound to inbound calls can occur. Nodes
such as ng_ipfw, ng_gif etc. should be further examined whether a
potential for outbound to inbound call looping exists.
