rig a PREPEND macro for ALTQ as the POLL/DEQUEUE semantic is very bad in
terms of locking. We make this a full functional queue to allow "bulk
dequeue" which will further reduce the locking overhead (for non-altq
enabled devices). Drivers will access this via the following macros, which
will show up in <net/if_var.h> once we expose ALTQ to the build:
IFQ_DRV_DEQUEUE(ifq, m) - takes a mbuf off the queue (driver queue first)
IFQ_DRV_PREPEND(ifq, m) - pushes a mbuf back to the driver queue
IFQ_DRV_PURGE(ifq) - drops all packets in both queues
IFQ_DRV_IS_EMPTY(ifq) - checks for pending mbufs in either queue
One has to make sure that the first three are protected by a driver mutex.
At the moment most network drivers still require Giant, so this is not an
issue. Even those that have thier own mutex usually hold it in if_start and
the like, so this requirement is almost always satisfied.
This evolved from a discussion with Andrew Gallatin.
protect fields in the socket buffer. Add accessor macros to use the
mutex (SOCKBUF_*()). Initialize the mutex in soalloc(), and destroy
it in sodealloc(). Add addition, add SOCK_*() access macros which
will protect most remaining fields in the socket; for the time being,
use the receive socket buffer mutex to implement socket level locking
to reduce memory overhead.

sigsuspend, thread shouldn't wait, in old code, it may be
ignored.
When a signal handler is invoked in sigsuspend, thread gets
two different signal masks, one is in thread structure,
sigprocmask() can retrieve it, another is in ucontext
which is a third parameter of signal handler, the former is
the result of sigsuspend mask ORed with sigaction's sa_mask
and current signal, the later is the mask in thread structure
before sigsuspend is called. After signal handler is called,
the mask in ucontext should be copied into thread structure,
and becomes CURRENT signal mask, then sigsuspend returns to
user code.

- add locking
- disable ALTQ3_COMPAT by default (do not remove the code to keep the diff
towards KAME small)
- put some more code under ALTQ3 conditional compilation as it should be
- account for if_xname
- some more minor compile fixes
As people started wondering:
The strange path layout "altq/altq" is there to avoid "-Isys/contrib" and
make it "-Isys/contrib/altq" instead, as we will need at least <altq/altq.h>
and <altq/if_altq.h> for kernel compilation.
The "freebsd4_..." in the privious commit is just the best tag name in the
KAME tree I could find to classify this in order to track its history. It
does *not* mean that this will go to 4-STABLE or anything of that kind.
HEAD at this point). This will not exactly live in a vendor branch, but have
the vendor backing to make it easier to exchange diffs.
This will be followed by a diff which takes most of the .c files off the
vendor branch in order to:
- add locking
- disable ALTQ3_COMPAT code (which is outdated and "un-lockable")
There is work in progress to refine the configuration API. Import this "as
is" now to have more exposure time before 5-STABLE.
This is only the import, it will be some more days until you will actually
be able to compile ALTQ support into your kernel so don't hold your breath.
HEADUPs will be posted on current@ and net@ before this is actually enabled.

ruleset, the pcb is looked up once per ipfw_chk() activation.
This is done by extracting the required information out of the PCB
and caching it to the ipfw_chk() stack. This should greatly reduce
PCB looking contention and speed up the processing of UID/GID based
firewall rules (especially with large UID/GID rulesets).
Some very basic benchmarks were taken which compares the number
of in_pcblookup_hash(9) activations to the number of firewall
rules containing UID/GID based contraints before and after this patch.
The results can be viewed here:

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.
