function. It was an ill-considered feature. It didn't solve the
problem I wanted it to solve. And it added Yet Another Version
Number that would have to be maintained at every release point.
I'm nuking it now before anybody grows too fond of it.
Include <machine/ansi.h> so that this file is self-sufficient again.
Rev.1.6 doesn't do this as claimed unless <nlist.h> has nonstandard
pollution.
Cleaned up includes.
implementation requires two things:
1.) The priority queues must be protected during insertion
and removal of threads. Since the kernel scheduler
must modify the priority queues, a spinlock for
protection cannot be used. The functions
_thread_kern_sched_defer() and _thread_kern_sched_undefer()
were added to {un}defer kernel scheduler activation.
2.) A thread (active) priority change can be performed only
when the thread is removed from the priority queue. The
implementation uses a threads active priority when
inserting it into the queue.
A by-product is that thread switches are much faster. A
separate queue is used for waiting and/or blocked threads,
and it is searched at most 2 times in the kernel scheduler
when there are active threads. It should be possible to
reduce this to once by combining polling of threads waiting
on I/O with the loop that looks for timed out threads and
the minimum timeout value.
o Functions to defer kernel scheduler activation were added. These
are _thread_kern_sched_defer() and _thread_kern_sched_undefer()
and may be called recursively. These routines do not block the
scheduling signal, but latch its occurrence. The signal handler
will not call the kernel scheduler when the running thread has
deferred scheduling, but it will be called when running thread
undefers scheduling.
o Added support for _POSIX_THREAD_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING. All the
POSIX routines required by this should now be implemented.
One note, SCHED_OTHER, SCHED_FIFO, and SCHED_RR are required
to be defined by including pthread.h. These defines are currently
in sched.h. I modified pthread.h to include sched.h but don't
know if this is the proper thing to do.
o Added support for priority protection and inheritence mutexes.
This allows definition of _POSIX_THREAD_PRIO_PROTECT and
_POSIX_THREAD_PRIO_INHERIT.
o Added additional error checks required by POSIX for mutexes and
condition variables.
o Provided a wrapper for sigpending which is marked as a hidden
syscall.
o Added a non-portable function as a debugging aid to allow an
application to monitor thread context switches. An application
can install a routine that gets called everytime a thread
(explicitly created by the application) gets context switched.
The routine gets passed the pthread IDs of the threads that are
being switched in and out. I found this useful, but we can
get rid of it if you want.

The only essential change is in paths.h, so any third-party software
written correctly will pick it up in the next rebuild.
Reviewed by: the committers list (actually an old version)
of getopt (as in, multiple input lines :). This is documented in the
man page and is used in the code, but unistd.h and stand.h do not
declare it. Incidentally, it prevents me fixing a bug in loader's
code... :-)

- created internal names for fixed-size integral types, like __int32_t. They
will be used to make several headers self-sufficient.
- <stdlib.h> don't include <machine/types.h> anymore.
- created <sys/inttypes.h>, which can be used as <inttypes.h>.
- declaration of uoff_t and ufs_daddr_t moved to <sys/types.h>.

<kvm.h> is self-sufficient again.
Moved typedefs and forward struct declarations out of __BEGIN_DECLS/
__END_DECLS.
Don't comment out the prototype for kvm_uread(). This was a 4 year
old kludge for previous breakage of self-sufficiency. The prototypwe
was broken instead.
Fixed bitrot (const poisoning) in the type of kvm_uread().
Fixed order of the declaration of kvm_uread().
and their argument lists for the err(3) family of functions. Note,
I intentionally used __printflike instead of __printf0like for
warnx. Although a NULL format string is legal for that function, it
doesn't make any sense.

Don't override the (correct) defaults for the depend, lint or tags target.
In LDIRS: fixed order-rot. Don't comment out dead networking directories;
