On RELENG_6 (and probably RELENG_7) we see our syscons windows and
pseudo-terminals have the following buffer sizes:
| LINE RAW CAN OUT IHIWT ILOWT OHWT LWT COL STATE SESS PGID DISC
| ttyv0 0 0 0 7680 6720 2052 256 7 OCcl 1146 1146 term
| ttyp0 0 0 0 7680 6720 1296 256 0 OCc 82033 82033 term
These buffer sizes make no sense, because we often have much more output
than input, but I guess having higher input buffer sizes improves
guarantees of the system.
On MPSAFE TTY I just sent both the input and output buffer sizes to 7
KB, which is pretty big on a standard FreeBSD install with 8 syscons
windows and some PTY's. Reduce the baud rate to 9600 baud, which means
we now have the following buffer sizes:
| LINE INQ CAN LIN LOW OUTQ USE LOW COL SESS PGID STATE
| ttyv0 1920 0 0 192 1984 0 199 7 2401 2401 Oil
| pts/0 1920 0 0 192 1984 0 199 5631 1305 2526 Oi
This is a lot smaller, but for pseudo-devices this should be good
enough. You need to do a lot of punching to fill up a 7.5 KB input
buffer. If it turns out things don't work out this way, we'll just
switch to 19200 baud.
vnode in question does not need to be held. All the data structures used
during the name lookup are protected by the global name cache lock.
Instead, the caller merely needs to ensure a reference is held on the
vnode (such as vhold()) to keep it from being freed.
In the case of procfs' <pid>/file entry, grab the process lock while we
gain a new reference (via vhold()) on p_textvp to fully close races with
execve(2).
For the kern.proc.vmmap sysctl handler, use a shared vnode lock around
the call to VOP_GETATTR() rather than an exclusive lock.

Really, the concept of holdcnt in the struct mount is rappresented by
the mnt_ref (which prevents the type-stable structure from being
"recycled) handled through vfs_ref() and vfs_rel().
On this optic, switch the holdcnt acquisition into an emulated vfs_ref()
(and subsequent release into vfs_rel()).

and server. This replaces the RPC implementation of the NFS client and
server with the newer RPC implementation originally developed
(actually ported from the userland sunrpc code) to support the NFS
Lock Manager. I have tested this code extensively and I believe it is
stable and that performance is at least equal to the legacy RPC
implementation.
The NFS code currently contains support for both the new RPC
implementation and the older legacy implementation inherited from the
original NFS codebase. The default is to use the new implementation -
add the NFS_LEGACYRPC option to fall back to the old code. When I
merge this support back to RELENG_7, I will probably change this so
that users have to 'opt in' to get the new code.
To use RPCSEC_GSS on either client or server, you must build a kernel
which includes the KGSSAPI option and the crypto device. On the
userland side, you must build at least a new libc, mountd, mount_nfs
and gssd. You must install new versions of /etc/rc.d/gssd and
/etc/rc.d/nfsd and add 'gssd_enable=YES' to /etc/rc.conf.
As long as gssd is running, you should be able to mount an NFS
filesystem from a server that requires RPCSEC_GSS authentication. The
mount itself can happen without any kerberos credentials but all
access to the filesystem will be denied unless the accessing user has
a valid ticket file in the standard place (/tmp/krb5cc_<uid>). There
is currently no support for situations where the ticket file is in a
different place, such as when the user logged in via SSH and has
delegated credentials from that login. This restriction is also
present in Solaris and Linux. In theory, we could improve this in
future, possibly using Brooks Davis' implementation of variant
symlinks.
Supporting RPCSEC_GSS on a server is nearly as simple. You must create
service creds for the server in the form 'nfs/<fqdn>@<REALM>' and
install them in /etc/krb5.keytab. The standard heimdal utility ktutil
makes this fairly easy. After the service creds have been created, you
can add a '-sec=krb5' option to /etc/exports and restart both mountd
and nfsd.
The only other difference an administrator should notice is that nfsd
doesn't fork to create service threads any more. In normal operation,
there will be two nfsd processes, one in userland waiting for TCP
connections and one in the kernel handling requests. The latter
process will create as many kthreads as required - these should be
visible via 'top -H'. The code has some support for varying the number
of service threads according to load but initially at least, nfsd uses
a fixed number of threads according to the value supplied to its '-n'
option.

- Implement real draining for vfs consumers by not relying on the
mnt_lock and using instead a refcount in order to keep track of lock
requesters.
- Due to the change above, remove the mnt_lock lockmgr because it is now
useless.
- Due to the change above, vfs_busy() is no more linked to a lockmgr.
Change so its KPI by removing the interlock argument and defining 2 new
flags for it: MBF_NOWAIT which basically replaces the LK_NOWAIT of the
old version (which was unlinked from the lockmgr alredy) and
MBF_MNTLSTLOCK which provides the ability to drop the mountlist_mtx
once the mnt interlock is held (ability still desired by most consumers).
- The stub used into vfs_mount_destroy(), that allows to override the
mnt_ref if running for more than 3 seconds, make it totally useless.
Remove it as it was thought to work into older versions.
If a problem of "refcount held never going away" should appear, we will
need to fix properly instead than trust on such hackish solution.
- Fix a bug where returning (with an error) from dounmount() was still
leaving the MNTK_MWAIT flag on even if it the waiters were actually
woken up. Just a place in vfs_mount_destroy() is left because it is
going to recycle the structure in any case, so it doesn't matter.
- Remove the markercnt refcount as it is useless.
This patch modifies VFS ABI and breaks KPI for vfs_busy() so manpages and
__FreeBSD_version will be modified accordingly.

We often run into these very high column numbers when we run curses
applications, because they don't print any newlines. This messes up the
table output of `pstat -t'. If these numbers get really high, they
aren't of any use to the reader anyway. Convert them to `99999' when
they run out of bounds.
One of the pieces of code that I had left alone during the development
of the MPSAFE TTY layer, was tty_cons.c. This file actually has two
different functions:
- It contains low-level console input/output routines (cnputc(), etc).
- It creates /dev/console and wraps all its cdevsw calls to the
appropriate TTY.
This commit reimplements the second set of functions by moving it
directly into the TTY layer. /dev/console is now a character device node
that's basically a regular TTY, but does a lookup of `si_drv1' each time
you open it. d_write has also been changed to call log_console().
d_close() is not present, because we must make sure we don't revoke the
TTY after writing a log message to it.
Even though I'm not convinced this is in line with the future directions
of our console code, it is a good move for now. It removes recursive
locking from the top half of the TTY layer. The previous implementation
called into the TTY layer with Giant held.
I'm renaming tty_cons.c to kern_cons.c now. The code hardly contains any
TTY related bits, so we'd better give it a less misleading name.

"ticks" goes negative. This breaks the signed comparison in softclock.
This causes sleep() to never wake up, tcp to stop, etc etc. This is

Due to the nature of the beast it causes lot of unproductive overhead. This
is especially bad when running SMP kernel on VMWare with several virtual
processors - idle FreeBSD guest with SMP kernel takes 150% host CPU time on my
dual-core MacBook Pro when I am enabling two virtual CPUs, making even host
