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.

UNIX domain socket garbage collection implementation, as that risks
holding the mutex over potentially sleeping operations (as well as

buffers with kqueue filters is no longer required: the kqueue framework
will guarantee that the mutex is held on entering the filter, either
due to a call from the socket code already holding the mutex, or by
explicitly acquiring it. This removes the last of the conditional
socket locking.
We were obtaining different spin mutexes (which disable interrupts after
aquisition) and spin waiting for delivery. For example, KSE processes
do LDT operations which use smp_rendezvous, while other parts of the
system are doing things like tlb shootdowns with a different mutex.
This patch uses the common smp_rendezvous mutex for all MD home-grown
IPIs that spinwait for delivery. Having the single mutex means that
the spinloop to aquire it will enable interrupts periodically, thus
avoiding the cross-ipi deadlock.

in the shutdown_final state if the RB_NOSYNC flag is set.
The specific motivation in this case is that a system panic in an
interrupt context results in a call to module_shutdown(), which
calls g_modevent(), which calls g_malloc(..., M_WAITOK), which
results in a second panic. While g_modevent() could be fixed to
not call malloc() for MOD_SHUTDOWN events (which it doesn't handle
in any case), it is probably also a good idea to entirely skip the
execution of the module shutdown handlers after a panic.

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.

The LK_WANT_EXCL and LK_WANT_UPGRADE bits act as mini-locks and can block
other threads. Normally this is not a problem since the mini locks are

- pipespace is now able to resize non-empty pipes; this allows
for many more resizing opportunities
- Backing is no longer pre-allocated for the reverse direction
of pipes. This direction is rarely (if ever) used, so this cuts the
amount of map space allocated to a pipe in half.
- Pipe growth is now much more dynamic; a pipe will now grow when
the total amount of data it contains and the size of the write are
larger than the size of pipe. Previously, only individual writes greater
than the size of the pipe would cause growth.
- In low memory situations, pipes will now shrink during both read
and write operations, where possible. Once the memory shortage
ends, the growth code will cause these pipes to grow back to an appropriate
size.
- If the full PIPE_SIZE allocation fails when a new pipe is created, the
allocation will be retried with SMALL_PIPE_SIZE. This helps to deal
with the situation of a fragmented map after a low memory period has
ended.
- Minor documentation + code changes to support the above.
In total, these changes increase the total number of pipes that
can be allocated simultaneously, drastically reducing the chances that
pipe allocation will fail.
Performance appears unchanged due to dynamic resizing.
