The panic below was seen when a revoke(2) was issued on an nmdm device.
In this case there was also a thread that was blocked on a read(2) on the

return an error to userspace. In this case the reader also held the last
reference on the file descriptor so fdrop() ended up calling tty_rel_free()
via ttydev_close().
tty_rel_free() then tried to dequeue 'tp' again which led to the panic.

One problem is inferior(9) looping due to the process tree becoming a

is due to the use of p_oppid to restore the original parent/child
relationship, because real parent could already exited and its pid
reused (noted by mjg).
Add the function proc_realparent(9), which calculates the parent for
given process. It uses the flag P_TREE_FIRST_ORPHAN to detect the head
element of the p_orphan list and than stepping back to its container
to find the parent process. If the parent has already exited, the
init(8) is returned.
Move the P_ORPHAN and the new helper flag from the p_flag* to new
p_treeflag field of struct proc, which is protected by proctree lock
instead of proc lock, since the orphans relationship is managed under
the proctree_lock already.

there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

We can read refcnt safely and only care if it is equal to 1.
If it could suddenly change from 1 to something bigger the code would be
buggy even in the previous form and transitions from > 1 to 1 are equally racy

- Add stronger checks to the enqueue/dequeue for the pagequeues when

Of course, for unmanaged pages the queue parameter of vm_page_unwire() will

This makes adding new pagequeues quicker.

avoid congestion on global mountlist_mtx mutex in vfs_busyfs(), while
traversing through the list of mount points.
This change significantly improves NFS server scalability, since it had
to do this translation for every request, and the global lock becomes quite
congested.
This code is more optimized for relatively small number of mount points.
On systems with hundreds of active mount points this simple cache may have
many collisions. But the original traversal code in that case should also
behave much worse, so we are not loosing much.

called from buffer release code paths.
The needsbuffer is now updated using atomics, while read lock of
nblock prevents loosing the wakeups from bufspacewakeup() and
bufcountadd() in getnewbuf_bufd_help().
In several interesting loads, needsbuffer flags are never set, while
buffers are reused quickly. This causes brelse() and bqrelse() from
different threads to content on the nblock. Now they take nblock in
read mode, together with needsbuffer not needing an update, allowing
higher parallelism.

Mark ffs_rawread.c as requiring both ffs and directio options to be

In addition to stopping breaking the layering violation, it also
allows to link kernel when FFS is configured as module and DIRECTIO is

One consequence of the change is that ffs_rawread.o is always linked

interface allows the ifnet structure to be defined as an opaque
type in NIC drivers. This then allows the ifnet structure to be
changed without a need to change or recompile NIC drivers.
Put differently, NIC drivers can be written and compiled once and
be used with different network stack implementations, provided of
course that those network stack implementations have an API and
ABI compatible interface.
This commit introduces the 'if_t' type to replace 'struct ifnet *'
as the type of a network interface. The 'if_t' type is defined as
'void *' to enable the compiler to perform type conversion to
'struct ifnet *' and vice versa where needed and without warnings.
The functions that implement the API are the only functions that
need to have an explicit cast.
The MII code has been converted to use the driver API to avoid
unnecessary code churn. Code churn comes from having to work with
both converted and unconverted drivers in correlation with having
callback functions that take an interface. By converting the MII
code first, the callback functions can be defined so that the
compiler will perform the typecasts automatically.
As soon as all drivers have been converted, the if_t type can be
redefined as needed and the API functions can be fix to not need
an explicit cast.
The immediate benefactors of this change are:
1. Juniper Networks - The network stack implementation in Junos
is entirely different from FreeBSD's one and this change
allows Juniper to build "stock" NIC drivers that can be used
in combination with both the FreeBSD and Junos stacks.
2. FreeBSD - This change opens the door towards changing ifnet
and implementing new features and optimizations in the network
stack without it requiring a change in the many NIC drivers
FreeBSD has.

Add a KASSERT() to catch callers which incorrectly pass the RF_WANTED

Do a strict equality check on the share type bits of flags. In
particular, do an equality check on RF_PREFETCHABLE. The previous
code would allow one type of mismatch of RF_PREFETCHABLE but disallow
the other type of mismatch. Also, ignore the the RF_ALIGNMENT_MASK
bits since alignment validity should be handled by the amask check.
This field contains an integer value, but previous code did a strange
bitwise comparison on it.
Leave the original value of flags unmolested as a minor debug aid.
Change the start+amask overflow check to a KASSERT() since it is just
meant to catch a highly unlikely programming error in the caller.

on execve(2), it calls vmspace_exec(), which frees the current
vmspace. The thread executing an exec syscall gets new vmspace
assigned, and old vmspace is freed if only referenced by the current
process. The free operation includes pmap_release(), which
de-constructs the paging structures used by hardware.
If the calling process is multithreaded, other threads are suspended
in the thread_suspend_check(), and need to be unsuspended and run to
be able to exit on successfull exec. Now, since the old vmspace is
destroyed, paging structures are invalid, threads are resumed on the
non-existent pmaps (page tables), which leads to triple fault on x86.
To fix, postpone the free of old vmspace until the threads are resumed
and exited. To avoid modifications to all image activators all of
which use exec_new_vmspace(), memoize the current (old) vmspace in
kern_execve(), and notify it about the need to call vmspace_free()
with a thread-private flag TDP_EXECVMSPC.

If the underlying protocol reported an error (e.g. because a connection was
closed while waiting in the queue), this error was also indicated by
returning a zero-length address. For all other kinds of errors (e.g.
[EAGAIN], [ENFILE], [EMFILE]), *addrlen is unmodified and there are
successful cases where a zero-length address is returned (e.g. a connection
from an unbound Unix-domain socket), so this error indication is not
reliable.
As reported in Austin Group bug #836, modifying *addrlen on error may cause
subtle bugs if applications retry the call without resetting *addrlen.

Prior to this change, if a system booted with Intel Turbo Boost enabled,
the dev.cpu.0.freq sysctl is nonfunctional, since the ACPI-reported
frequency for Turbo Boost states does not match the actual clock frequency
(and thus no levels are within 25 MHz of the observed frequency) and the
current performance level is read before a new level is set.

Relnotes: Bug fix in power management on CPUs with Intel Turbo Boost
Under enough load, the swi's can actually be preempted and migrated
to other currently free cores. When doing RSS experiments, this lead
to the per-CPU TCP timers not lining up any more with the RX CPU said
flows were ending up on, leading to increased lock contention.
Since there was a little pushback on flipping them on by default,
I've left the default at "don't pin."
The other less obvious problem here is that the default swi
is also the same as the destination swi for CPU #0. So if one
pins the swi on CPU #0, there's no default floating swi.
A nice future project would be to create a separate swi for
the "default" floating swi, as well as per-CPU swis that are
(optionally) pinned.
