ad1e7d285a Threading cleanup.. part 2 of several.
Make part of John Birrell's KSE patch permanent..
Specifically, remove:
Any reference of the ksegrp structure. This feature was
never fully utilised and made things overly complicated.
All code in the scheduler that tried to make threaded programs
fair to unthreaded programs.  Libpthread processes will already
do this to some extent and libthr processes already disable it.

Also:
Since this makes such a big change to the scheduler(s), take the opportunity
to rename some structures and elements that had to be moved anyhow.
This makes the code a lot more readable.

The ULE scheduler compiles again but I have no idea if it works.

The 4bsd scheduler still reqires a little cleaning and some functions that now do
ALMOST nothing will go away, but I thought I'd do that as a separate commit.

Tested by David Xu, and Dan Eischen using libthr and libpthread.

db24060c25 Correct the handling of two unusual cases by the zero-copy receive path,
specifically, vm_pgmoveco():
1. If vm_pgmoveco() sleeps on a busy page, it must redo the look up
because the page may have been freed.
2. If the receive buffer is copy-on-write due to, for example, a fork,
then although the first vm object in the shadow chain may not contain
a page there may still be one from a backing object that is mapped.
Thus, a pmap_remove() is required for the new page rather than the
backing object's page to been seen by the application.

Also, add some comments to vm_pgmoveco() and update some assertions.

370abcb3e5 Update the Tigon 1 and 2 driver to use the sf_buf API for implementing
zero-copy receive of jumbo frames.  This eliminates the need for the
jumbo frame allocator implemented in kern/uipc_jumbo.c and sys/jumbo.h.
Remove it.

Note: Zero-copy receive of jumbo frames did not work without these changes;
I believe there was insufficient locking on the jumbo vm object.

1ac60dbce9 Two changes to vm_pgmoveco():
- Eliminate an initialized but unused variable.
 - Eliminate an unnecessary call to clear the page's PG_BUSY flag.  (The
   call to vm_page_rename() already clears the page's PG_BUSY flag through
   its call to vm_page_remove().)

d19ef81437 The synchronization provided by vm object locking has eliminated the
need for most calls to vm_page_busy().  Specifically, most calls to
vm_page_busy() occur immediately prior to a call to vm_page_remove().
In such cases, the containing vm object is locked across both calls.
Consequently, the setting of the vm page's PG_BUSY flag is not even
visible to other threads that are following the synchronization
protocol.

This change (1) eliminates the calls to vm_page_busy() that
immediately precede a call to vm_page_remove() or functions, such as
vm_page_free() and vm_page_rename(), that call it and (2) relaxes the
requirement in vm_page_remove() that the vm page's PG_BUSY flag is
set.  Now, the vm page's PG_BUSY flag is set only when the vm object
lock is released while the vm page is still in transition.  Typically,
this is when it is undergoing I/O.

bf0acc273a - Change mi_switch() and sched_switch() to accept an optional thread to
switch to.  If a non-NULL thread pointer is passed in, then the CPU will
  switch to that thread directly rather than calling choosethread() to pick
  a thread to choose to.
- Make sched_switch() aware of idle threads and know to do
  TD_SET_CAN_RUN() instead of sticking them on the run queue rather than
  requiring all callers of mi_switch() to know to do this if they can be
  called from an idlethread.
- Move constants for arguments to mi_switch() and thread_single() out of
  the middle of the function prototypes and up above into their own
  section.

beb699c7ba Rewrite sendfile's header support so that headers are now sent in the first
packet along with data, instead of in their own packet.  When serving files
of size (packetsize - headersize) or smaller, this will result in one less
packet crossing the network.  Quick testing with thttpd and http_load has
shown a noticeable performance improvement in this case (350 vs 330 fetches
per second.)

Included in this commit are two support routines, iov_to_uio, and m_uiotombuf;
these routines are used by sendfile to construct the header mbuf chain that
will be linked to the rest of the data in the socket buffer.

29bcc4514f - Add a flags parameter to mi_switch. The value of flags may be SW_VOL or
SW_INVOL.  Assert that one of these is set in mi_switch() and propery
   adjust the rusage statistics.  This is to simplify the large number of
   users of this interface which were previously all required to adjust the
   proper counter prior to calling mi_switch().  This also facilitates more
   switch and locking optimizations.
 - Change all callers of mi_switch() to pass the appropriate paramter and
   remove direct references to the process statistics.

8b7358ca43 Introduce a uiomove_frombuf helper routine that handles computing and
validating the offset within a given memory buffer before handing the
real work off to uiomove(9).

Use uiomove_frombuf in procfs to correct several issues with
integer arithmetic that could result in underflows/overflows.  As a
side-effect, the code is significantly simplified.

Add additional sanity checks when computing a memory allocation size
in pfs_read.

9b80d344ec Zero copy send and receive fixes:
- On receive, vm_map_lookup() needs to trigger the creation of a shadow
  object.  To make that happen, call vm_map_lookup() with PROT_WRITE
  instead of PROT_READ in vm_pgmoveco().

- On send, a shadow object will be created by the vm_map_lookup() in
  vm_fault(), but vm_page_cowfault() will delete the original page from
  the backing object rather than simply letting the legacy COW mechanism
  take over.  In other words, the new page should be added to the shadow
  object rather than replacing the old page in the backing object.  (i.e.
  vm_page_cowfault() should not be called in this case.)  We accomplish
  this by making sure fs.object == fs.first_object before calling
  vm_page_cowfault() in vm_fault().

98cb733c67 At long last, commit the zero copy sockets code.
MAKEDEV:	Add MAKEDEV glue for the ti(4) device nodes.

ti.4:		Update the ti(4) man page to include information on the
		TI_JUMBO_HDRSPLIT and TI_PRIVATE_JUMBOS kernel options,
		and also include information about the new character
		device interface and the associated ioctls.

man9/Makefile:	Add jumbo.9 and zero_copy.9 man pages and associated
		links.

jumbo.9:	New man page describing the jumbo buffer allocator
		interface and operation.

zero_copy.9:	New man page describing the general characteristics of
		the zero copy send and receive code, and what an
		application author should do to take advantage of the
		zero copy functionality.

NOTES:		Add entries for ZERO_COPY_SOCKETS, TI_PRIVATE_JUMBOS,
		TI_JUMBO_HDRSPLIT, MSIZE, and MCLSHIFT.

conf/files:	Add uipc_jumbo.c and uipc_cow.c.

conf/options:	Add the 5 options mentioned above.

kern_subr.c:	Receive side zero copy implementation.  This takes
		"disposable" pages attached to an mbuf, gives them to
		a user process, and then recycles the user's page.
		This is only active when ZERO_COPY_SOCKETS is turned on
		and the kern.ipc.zero_copy.receive sysctl variable is
		set to 1.

uipc_cow.c:	Send side zero copy functions.  Takes a page written
		by the user and maps it copy on write and assigns it
		kernel virtual address space.  Removes copy on write
		mapping once the buffer has been freed by the network
		stack.

uipc_jumbo.c:	Jumbo disposable page allocator code.  This allocates
		(optionally) disposable pages for network drivers that
		want to give the user the option of doing zero copy
		receive.

uipc_socket.c:	Add kern.ipc.zero_copy.{send,receive} sysctls that are
		enabled if ZERO_COPY_SOCKETS is turned on.

		Add zero copy send support to sosend() -- pages get
		mapped into the kernel instead of getting copied if
		they meet size and alignment restrictions.

uipc_syscalls.c:Un-staticize some of the sf* functions so that they
		can be used elsewhere.  (uipc_cow.c)

if_media.c:	In the SIOCGIFMEDIA ioctl in ifmedia_ioctl(), avoid
		calling malloc() with M_WAITOK.  Return an error if
		the M_NOWAIT malloc fails.

		The ti(4) driver and the wi(4) driver, at least, call
		this with a mutex held.  This causes witness warnings
		for 'ifconfig -a' with a wi(4) or ti(4) board in the
		system.  (I've only verified for ti(4)).

ip_output.c:	Fragment large datagrams so that each segment contains
		a multiple of PAGE_SIZE amount of data plus headers.
		This allows the receiver to potentially do page
		flipping on receives.

if_ti.c:	Add zero copy receive support to the ti(4) driver.  If
		TI_PRIVATE_JUMBOS is not defined, it now uses the
		jumbo(9) buffer allocator for jumbo receive buffers.

		Add a new character device interface for the ti(4)
		driver for the new debugging interface.  This allows
		(a patched version of) gdb to talk to the Tigon board
		and debug the firmware.  There are also a few additional
		debugging ioctls available through this interface.

		Add header splitting support to the ti(4) driver.

		Tweak some of the default interrupt coalescing
		parameters to more useful defaults.

		Add hooks for supporting transmit flow control, but
		leave it turned off with a comment describing why it
		is turned off.

if_tireg.h:	Change the firmware rev to 12.4.11, since we're really
		at 12.4.11 plus fixes from 12.4.13.

		Add defines needed for debugging.

		Remove the ti_stats structure, it is now defined in
		sys/tiio.h.

ti_fw.h:	12.4.11 firmware.

ti_fw2.h:	12.4.11 firmware, plus selected fixes from 12.4.13,
		and my header splitting patches.  Revision 12.4.13
		doesn't handle 10/100 negotiation properly.  (This
		firmware is the same as what was in the tree previously,
		with the addition of header splitting support.)

sys/jumbo.h:	Jumbo buffer allocator interface.

sys/mbuf.h:	Add a new external mbuf type, EXT_DISPOSABLE, to
		indicate that the payload buffer can be thrown away /
		flipped to a userland process.

socketvar.h:	Add prototype for socow_setup.

tiio.h:		ioctl interface to the character portion of the ti(4)
		driver, plus associated structure/type definitions.

uio.h:		Change prototype for uiomoveco() so that we'll know
		whether the source page is disposable.

ufs_readwrite.c:Update for new prototype of uiomoveco().

vm_fault.c:	In vm_fault(), check to see whether we need to do a page
		based copy on write fault.

vm_object.c:	Add a new function, vm_object_allocate_wait().  This
		does the same thing that vm_object allocate does, except
		that it gives the caller the opportunity to specify whether
		it should wait on the uma_zalloc() of the object structre.

		This allows vm objects to be allocated while holding a
		mutex.  (Without generating WITNESS warnings.)

		vm_object_allocate() is implemented as a call to
		vm_object_allocate_wait() with the malloc flag set to
		M_WAITOK.

vm_object.h:	Add prototype for vm_object_allocate_wait().

vm_page.c:	Add page-based copy on write setup, clear and fault
		routines.

vm_page.h:	Add page based COW function prototypes and variable in
		the vm_page structure.

Many thanks to Drew Gallatin, who wrote the zero copy send and receive
code, and to all the other folks who have tested and reviewed this code
over the years.
