the need to synchronize access to the structure. I believe this
should fit into the stack under the necessary circumstances, but
if not we can either add synchronization or use a thread-local
malloc for the duration.
versions of various routers seen:
- Introduce igmp_mtx.
- Protect global variable 'router_info_head' and list fields
in struct router_info with this mutex, as well as
igmp_timers_are_running.
- find_rti() asserts that the caller acquires igmp_mtx.
- Annotate a failure to check the return value of
MALLOC(..., M_NOWAIT).
(bogus, application name space) mcount function name on amd64. Override
it here instead.
I've done it this way to avoid touching gcc source while 3.4 is in
progress, and this is the smallest, lowest impact I could come up with.
Adding a patch touches about 10-14 lines of Makefile, this touches only 1.
This will likely go away with the 3.4 import.
I spoke with Alexander about this a few days ago, but waited until after
sorting out some of the other bugs in the userland profiling.
is the actual name here) on EBus and which are PCF8584 (on systems having
a boot-bus controller the i2c are said to not be a PCF8584). Similar to the
SUNW,envctrl devices, onboard slaves for monitoring fans, temperatures and
such hang off of these i2c devices. But there's also stuff like EEPROMs
housing the hostid of the system and the boards usally have a connector to
add custom slave devices (on CP1500 there's actually a second PCF8584 with
its own I2C bus for these).
This driver already works fine but I'm not yet sure if access to the slave
devices on CP1400/CP1500 marked as "reserved for factory use" in the docs
should be blocked (most likely these are the voltage controllers wich aren't
meant to be controller by software and even not by the firmware). Once the
issues with polled mode are fixed in the common pcf(4) part in pcf.c, this
front-end should probably honour the poll-mode property of the i2c devices.
Tested on Ultra AXe and CP1500 (Netra t1 100).
OK'ed by: joerg, nsouch
- Use "envctrl" as the name when registering this module rather than "pcf";
we can't have "pcf" as the name for all pcf(4) front-ends or we would get
conflicts.
OK'ed by: joerg
- s,pcf_,pcf_isa, to better reflect the purpose of this front-end and to
avoid conflicts.
- Don't use this front-end for attaching to EBus, declaring it as an EBus
driver was a cut&paste accident according to joerg.

global and allocated variables. This strategy is derived from work
originally developed by BSDi for BSD/OS, and applied to FreeBSD by Sam
Leffler:
- Add unp_mtx, a global mutex which will protect all UNIX domain socket
related variables, structures, etc.
- Add UNP_LOCK(), UNP_UNLOCK(), UNP_LOCK_ASSERT() macros.
- Acquire unp_mtx on entering most UNIX domain socket code,
drop/re-acquire around calls into VFS, and release it on return.
- Avoid performing sodupsockaddr() while holding the mutex, so in general
move to allocating storage before acquiring the mutex to copy the data.
- Make a stack copy of the xucred rather than copying out while holding
unp_mtx. Copy the peer credential out after releasing the mutex.
- Add additional assertions of vnode locks following VOP_CREATE().
A few notes:
- Use of an sx lock for the file list mutex may cause problems with regard
to unp_mtx when garbage collection passed file descriptors.
- The locking in unp_pcblist() for sysctl monitoring is correct subject to
the unpcb zone not returning memory for reuse by other subsystems
(consistent with similar existing concerns).
- Sam's version of this change, as with the BSD/OS version, made use of
both a global lock and per-unpcb locks. However, in practice, the
global lock covered all accesses, so I have simplified out the unpcb
locks in the interest of getting this merged faster (reducing the
overhead but not sacrificing granularity in most cases). We will want
to explore possibilities for improving lock granularity in this code in
the future.

present and thus that the PnPBIOS probe should be skipped instead of
having ACPI zero out the PnPBIOStable pointer.
- Make the PnPBIOStable pointer static to i386/i386/bios.c now that that is
the only place it is used.
its primary use is for the FEPS/FAS366 SCSI found in Sun Ultra 1e and 2
machines. Once the pci front-end is ported, this driver can replace the
amd(4) driver.
The code as-is is fairly stable. I've disabled tagged-queueing until I can
figure out a corruption bug related to it. I'm importing it now so that
people with these machines can (finally) stop netbooting and report bugs
before 5.3.
as otherwise the junk it contains may cause uhub_explore to give
up without ever trying to restart the port. This fixes the following
errors I was seeing with a VIA UHCI controller:
uhub0: port error, restarting port 1
uhub0: port error, giving up port 1

This should fix that by performing only a single
atomic test-and-set that will serve to decrement
the ref_cnt, only if it hasn't changed since the
earlier read, otherwise it'll loop and re-read.
This forces ordering of decrements so that truly
the thread which did the LAST decrement is the
one that frees.
This is how atomic-instruction-based refcnting
should probably be handled.
