It was called almost unconditionally because the only exits on system
shutdown if at all.

sched_exit() does different things for the ULE case. The call became
essential when it started doing load average stuff, but its caller
should not know that.
(3) Didn't fix bugs caused by bitrot in the condition. The condition was
last correct in rev.1.208 when it was in wait1(). There p was spelled
curthread->td_proc and was for the waiting parent; now p is for the
exiting child. The condition was to avoid lowering init's priority.
It should be in sched_exit() itself. Lowering of priorities is broken
in other ways in at least the 4BSD scheduler, and doing it for init
causes less noticeable problems than doing it for for shells.

- sowakeup() now asserts the socket buffer lock on entry. Move
the call to KNOTE higher in sowakeup() so that it is made with
the socket buffer lock held for consistency with other calls.
Release the socket buffer lock prior to calling into pgsigio(),
so_upcall(), or aio_swake(). Locking for this event management
will need revisiting in the future, but this model avoids lock
order reversals when upcalls into other subsystems result in
socket/socket buffer operations. Assert that the socket buffer
lock is not held at the end of the function.
- Wrapper macros for sowakeup(), sorwakeup() and sowwakeup(), now
have _locked versions which assert the socket buffer lock on
entry. If a wakeup is required by sb_notify(), invoke
sowakeup(); otherwise, unconditionally release the socket buffer
lock. This results in the socket buffer lock being released
whether a wakeup is required or not.
- Break out socantsendmore() into socantsendmore_locked() that
asserts the socket buffer lock. socantsendmore()
unconditionally locks the socket buffer before calling
socantsendmore_locked(). Note that both functions return with
the socket buffer unlocked as socantsendmore_locked() calls
sowwakeup_locked() which has the same properties. Assert that
the socket buffer is unlocked on return.
- Break out socantrcvmore() into socantrcvmore_locked() that
asserts the socket buffer lock. socantrcvmore() unconditionally
locks the socket buffer before calling socantrcvmore_locked().
Note that both functions return with the socket buffer unlocked
as socantrcvmore_locked() calls sorwakeup_locked() which has
similar properties. Assert that the socket buffer is unlocked
on return.
- Break out sbrelease() into a sbrelease_locked() that asserts the
socket buffer lock. sbrelease() unconditionally locks the
socket buffer before calling sbrelease_locked().
sbrelease_locked() now invokes sbflush_locked() instead of
sbflush().
- Assert the socket buffer lock in socket buffer sanity check
functions sblastrecordchk(), sblastmbufchk().
- Assert the socket buffer lock in SBLINKRECORD().
- Break out various sbappend() functions into sbappend_locked()
(and variations on that name) that assert the socket buffer
lock. The !_locked() variations unconditionally lock the socket
buffer before calling their _locked counterparts. Internally,
make sure to call _locked() support routines, etc, if already
holding the socket buffer lock.
- Break out sbinsertoob() into sbinsertoob_locked() that asserts
the socket buffer lock. sbinsertoob() unconditionally locks the
socket buffer before calling sbinsertoob_locked().
- Break out sbflush() into sbflush_locked() that asserts the
socket buffer lock. sbflush() unconditionally locks the socket
buffer before calling sbflush_locked(). Update panic strings
for new function names.
- Break out sbdrop() into sbdrop_locked() that asserts the socket
buffer lock. sbdrop() unconditionally locks the socket buffer
before calling sbdrop_locked().
- Break out sbdroprecord() into sbdroprecord_locked() that asserts
the socket buffer lock. sbdroprecord() unconditionally locks
the socket buffer before calling sbdroprecord_locked().
- sofree() now calls socantsendmore_locked() and re-acquires the
socket buffer lock on return. It also now calls
sbrelease_locked().
- sorflush() now calls socantrcvmore_locked() and re-acquires the
socket buffer lock on return. Clean up/mess up other behavior
in sorflush() relating to the temporary stack copy of the socket
buffer used with dom_dispose by more properly initializing the
temporary copy, and selectively bzeroing/copying more carefully
to prevent WITNESS from getting confused by improperly
initialized mutexes. Annotate why that's necessary, or at
least, needed.
- soisconnected() now calls sbdrop_locked() before unlocking the
socket buffer to avoid locking overhead.

flags relating to several aspects of socket functionality. This change
breaks out several bits relating to send and receive operation into a
new per-socket buffer field, sb_state, in order to facilitate locking.
This is required because, in order to provide more granular locking of
sockets, different state fields have different locking properties. The
following fields are moved to sb_state:
SS_CANTRCVMORE (so_state)
SS_CANTSENDMORE (so_state)
SS_RCVATMARK (so_state)
Rename respectively to:
SBS_CANTRCVMORE (so_rcv.sb_state)
SBS_CANTSENDMORE (so_snd.sb_state)
SBS_RCVATMARK (so_rcv.sb_state)
This facilitates locking by isolating fields to be located with other
identically locked fields, and permits greater granularity in socket
locking by avoiding storing fields with different locking semantics in
the same short (avoiding locking conflicts). In the future, we may
wish to coallesce sb_state and sb_flags; for the time being I leave
them separate and there is no additional memory overhead due to the
packing/alignment of shorts in the socket buffer structure.
SOCK_LOCK(so):
- Hold socket lock over calls to MAC entry points reading or

- Assert socket lock in MAC entry point implementations.

to externalize to userspace.

- Assert SOCK_LOCK(so) macros that directly manipulate so_count:
soref(), sorele().
- Assert SOCK_LOCK(so) in macros/functions that rely on the state of
so_count: sofree(), sotryfree().
- Acquire SOCK_LOCK(so) before calling these functions or macros in
various contexts in the stack, both at the socket and protocol

- In some cases, perform soisdisconnected() before sotryfree(), as
this could result in frobbing of a non-present socket if
sotryfree() actually frees the socket.
- Note that sofree()/sotryfree() will release the socket lock even if
they don't free the socket.

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.

This should fix that by performing only a single

This forces ordering of decrements so that truly

when I reordered events in accept1() to allocate a file descriptor
earlier, I didn't properly update use of goto on exit to unwind for
cases where the file descriptor is now held, but wasn't previously.
The result was that, in the event of accept() on a non-blocking socket,
or in the event of a socket error, a file descriptor would be leaked.
This ended up being non-fatal in many cases, as the file descriptor
would be properly GC'd on process exit, so only showed up for processes
that do a lot of non-blocking accept() calls, and also live for a long
time (such as qmail).
This change updates the use of goto targets to do additional unwinding.

global mutex, accept_mtx, which serializes access to the following
fields across all sockets:
so_qlen so_incqlen so_qstate
so_comp so_incomp so_list
so_head
While providing only coarse granularity, this approach avoids lock
order issues between sockets by avoiding ownership of the fields
by a specific socket and its per-socket mutexes.
While here, rewrite soclose(), sofree(), soaccept(), and
sonewconn() to add assertions, close additional races and address
lock order concerns. In particular:
- Reorganize the optimistic concurrency behavior in accept1() to
always allocate a file descriptor with falloc() so that if we do
find a socket, we don't have to encounter the "Oh, there wasn't
a socket" race that can occur if falloc() sleeps in the current
code, which broke inbound accept() ordering, not to mention
requiring backing out socket state changes in a way that raced
with the protocol level. We may want to add a lockless read of
the queue state if polling of empty queues proves to be important
to optimize.
- In accept1(), soref() the socket while holding the accept lock
so that the socket cannot be free'd in a race with the protocol
layer. Likewise in netgraph equivilents of the accept1() code.
- In sonewconn(), loop waiting for the queue to be small enough to
insert our new socket once we've committed to inserting it, or
races can occur that cause the incomplete socket queue to
overfill. In the previously implementation, it was sufficient
to simply tested once since calling soabort() didn't release
synchronization permitting another thread to insert a socket as
we discard a previous one.
- In soclose()/sofree()/et al, it is the responsibility of the
caller to remove a socket from the incomplete connection queue
before calling soabort(), which prevents soabort() from having
to walk into the accept socket to release the socket from its
queue, and avoids races when releasing the accept mutex to enter
soabort(), permitting soabort() to avoid lock ordering issues
with the caller.
- Generally cluster accept queue related operations together
throughout these functions in order to facilitate locking.

mbuma is an Mbuf & Cluster allocator built on top of a number of
extensions to the UMA framework, all included herein.
Extensions to UMA worth noting:
- Better layering between slab <-> zone caches; introduce
Keg structure which splits off slab cache away from the
zone structure and allows multiple zones to be stacked
on top of a single Keg (single type of slab cache);
perhaps we should look into defining a subset API on
top of the Keg for special use by malloc(9),
for example.
- UMA_ZONE_REFCNT zones can now be added, and reference
counters automagically allocated for them within the end
of the associated slab structures. uma_find_refcnt()
does a kextract to fetch the slab struct reference from
the underlying page, and lookup the corresponding refcnt.
mbuma things worth noting:
- integrates mbuf & cluster allocations with extended UMA
and provides caches for commonly-allocated items; defines
several zones (two primary, one secondary) and two kegs.
- change up certain code paths that always used to do:
m_get() + m_clget() to instead just use m_getcl() and
try to take advantage of the newly defined secondary
Packet zone.
- netstat(1) and systat(1) quickly hacked up to do basic
stat reporting but additional stats work needs to be
done once some other details within UMA have been taken
care of and it becomes clearer to how stats will work
within the modified framework.
From the user perspective, one implication is that the
NMBCLUSTERS compile-time option is no longer used. The
maximum number of clusters is still capped off according
to maxusers, but it can be made unlimited by setting
the kern.ipc.nmbclusters boot-time tunable to zero.
Work should be done to write an appropriate sysctl
handler allowing dynamic tuning of kern.ipc.nmbclusters
at runtime.
Additional things worth noting/known issues (READ):
- One report of 'ips' (ServeRAID) driver acting really
slow in conjunction with mbuma. Need more data.
Latest report is that ips is equally sucking with
and without mbuma.
- Giant leak in NFS code sometimes occurs, can't
reproduce but currently analyzing; brueffer is
able to reproduce but THIS IS NOT an mbuma-specific
problem and currently occurs even WITHOUT mbuma.
- Issues in network locking: there is at least one
code path in the rip code where one or more locks
are acquired and we end up in m_prepend() with
M_WAITOK, which causes WITNESS to whine from within
UMA. Current temporary solution: force all UMA
allocations to be M_NOWAIT from within UMA for now
to avoid deadlocks unless WITNESS is defined and we
can determine with certainty that we're not holding
any locks when we're M_WAITOK.
- I've seen at least one weird socketbuffer empty-but-
mbuf-still-attached panic. I don't believe this
to be related to mbuma but please keep your eyes
open, turn on debugging, and capture crash dumps.
This change removes more code than it adds.

various performance issues, it was presented at BSDCan2004:

allocation. For such cases, clearing the flag is pointless. The only
unusual use of PG_ZERO is in vfs_bio_clrbuf(). However, allocbuf() never
requests a prezeroed page. So, vfs_bio_clrbuf() never sees a prezeroed
page.

as dependent on binutils features/quirks as the current one. This one
loads plain .o files without having to mess with shared object mode.
This happens to be essential on amd64, because binutils hasn't implemented
all the quirks/features that we need for producing the hack non-PIC shared
objects. As it turned out, .o format isn't all that inconvenient after
all. It looks like the ability to use the same .o files for linking
directly into a static kernel or loading as a module might be worth it.
It is still very much a work-in-progress, but it is almost usable. Other
changes are still needed in order to use it though, these have not been
committed yet. There is still a memory corruption/overrun bug somewhere.
For example, test modules load and work, but the machine explodes a few
minutes later in vm_forkproc() or the like. Notable missing things
include kldxref support, and loader(8) support. I wanted to figure out

The default is off, but allowing raw sockets within jails can
now be accomplished by tuning security.jail.allow_raw_sockets

Turning this on will allow you to use things like ping(8)

pagezero not running at PRI_ITHD, kseq_load_{add,rem} count pagezero as

Specifically, we used to enable the source after locking sched_lock
and just before we had already decided to do a context switch.
This meant that an ithread could never process more than one interrupt
per context switch. Enabling earlier in the loop before sched_lock is
acquired allows an ithread to handle multiple interrupts per context
switch if interrupts fire very rapidly. For the case of heavy interrupt
load this can reduce the number of context switches (and thus overhead)
as well as reduce interrupt latency.
- Now that we can handle multiple interrupts per context switch, add simple
interrupt storm protection to threaded interrupts. If X number of
consecutive interrupts are triggered before the itherad voluntarily
yields to another thread, then the interrupt thread will sleep with the
associated interrupt source disabled (masked) for 1/10th of a second.
The default value of X is 500, but it can be tweaked via the tunable/
sysctl hw.intr_storm_threshold. If an interrupt storm is detected, then
a message is output to the kernel console on the first occurrence per
interrupt thread. Interrupt storm protection can be disabled completely
by setting this value to 0. There is no scientific reasoning for the
1/10th of a second or 500 interrupts values, so they may require tweaking
at some point in the future.

count is protected by the mutex that protects the condition, so the count
does not require any extra locking or atomic operations. It serves as an
optimization to avoid calling into the sleepqueue code at all if there are
no waiters.
Note that the count can get temporarily out of sync when threads sleeping
on a condition variable time out or are aborted. However, it doesn't hurt
to call the sleepqueue code for either a signal or a broadcast when there
are no waiters, and the count is never out of sync in the opposite
direction unless we have more than INT_MAX sleeping threads.
to awaken all waiters when a contested mutex is released instead of just
the highest priority waiter. If the various threads are awakened in
sequence then each thread may acquire and release the lock in question
without contention resulting in fewer expensive unlock and lock
operations. This old behavior of waking just the highest priority is
still used if this option is specified. Making the algorithm conditional
on a kernel option will allows us to benchmark both cases later and
determine which one should be used by default.

in the process. This is required for proper debugging of corefiles
created by 1:1 or M:N threaded processes. Add an XXX comment where
we should actually call a function that dumps MD specific notes.
An example of a MD specific note is the NT_PRXFPREG note for SSE
registers.
Since BFD creates non-annotated pseudo-sections for the first PRSTATUS
and FPREGSET notes (non-annotated in the sense that the name of the
section does not contain the pid/tid), make sure those sections describe
the initial thread of the process (i.e. the thread which tid equals the
pid). This is not strictly necessary, but makes sure that tools that use
the non-annotated section names will not change behaviour due to this
change.
The practical upshot of this all is that one can see the threads in
the debugger when looking at a corefile. For 1:1 threading this means
that *all* threads are visible.
is twofold:
1. When a 1:1 or M:N threaded process dumps core, we need to put the
register state of each of its kernel threads in the core file.
This can only be done by differentiating the pid field in the
respective note. For this we need the tid.
2. When thread support is present for remote debugging the kernel
with gdb(1), threads need to be identified by an integer due to
limitations in the remote protocol. This requires having a tid.
To minimize the impact of having thread IDs, threads that are created
as part of a fork (i.e. the initial thread in a process) will inherit
the process ID (i.e. tid=pid). Subsequent threads will have IDs larger
than PID_MAX to avoid interference with the pid allocation algorithm.
The assignment of tids is handled by thread_new_tid().
The thread ID allocation algorithm has been written with 3 assumptions
in mind:
1. IDs need to be created as fast a possible,
2. Reuse of IDs may happen instantaneously,
3. Someone else will write a better algorithm.
