bd4e153568 - Remove stale comment.
- In the last revision the code was changed to use maxfilesperproc rather than
   the per-process file limit to restrict the size of the poll array.  This
   eliminates a significant source of process lock contention in multithreaded
   programs and is cheaper.  This had been committed with the wrong batch of
   changes.

374ae2a393 - Relax requirements for p_numthreads, p_threads, p_swtick, and p_nice from
requiring the per-process spinlock to only requiring the process lock.
 - Reflect these changes in the proc.h documentation and consumers throughout
   the kernel.  This is a substantial reduction in locking cost for these
   fields and was made possible by recent changes to threading support.

e46502943a Make ftruncate a 'struct file' operation rather than a vnode operation.
This makes it possible to support ftruncate() on non-vnode file types in
the future.
- 'struct fileops' grows a 'fo_truncate' method to handle an ftruncate() on
  a given file descriptor.
- ftruncate() moves to kern/sys_generic.c and now just fetches a file
  object and invokes fo_truncate().
- The vnode-specific portions of ftruncate() move to vn_truncate() in
  vfs_vnops.c which implements fo_truncate() for vnode file types.
- Non-vnode file types return EINVAL in their fo_truncate() method.

397c19d175 Remove explicit locking of struct file.
- Introduce a finit() which is used to initailize the fields of struct file
   in such a way that the ops vector is only valid after the data, type,
   and flags are valid.
 - Protect f_flag and f_count with atomic operations.
 - Remove the global list of all files and associated accounting.
 - Rewrite the unp garbage collection such that it no longer requires
   the global list of all files and instead uses a list of all unp sockets.
 - Mark sockets in the accept queue so we don't incorrectly gc them.

ace8398da0 Refactor select to reduce contention and hide internal implementation
details from consumers.

 - Track individual selecters on a per-descriptor basis such that there
   are no longer collisions and after sleeping for events only those
   descriptors which triggered events must be rescaned.
 - Protect the selinfo (per descriptor) structure with a mtx pool mutex.
   mtx pool mutexes were chosen to preserve api compatibility with
   existing code which does nothing but bzero() to setup selinfo
   structures.
 - Use a per-thread wait channel rather than a global wait channel.
 - Hide select implementation details in a seltd structure which is
   opaque to the rest of the kernel.
 - Provide a 'selsocket' interface for those kernel consumers who wish to
   select on a socket when they have no fd so they no longer have to
   be aware of select implementation details.

5e3f7694b1 Replace custom file descriptor array sleep lock constructed using a mutex
and flags with an sxlock.  This leads to a significant and measurable
performance improvement as a result of access to shared locking for
frequent lookup operations, reduced general overhead, and reduced overhead
in the event of contention.  All of these are imported for threaded
applications where simultaneous access to a shared file descriptor array
occurs frequently.  Kris has reported 2x-4x transaction rate improvements
on 8-core MySQL benchmarks; smaller improvements can be expected for many
workloads as a result of reduced overhead.

- Generally eliminate the distinction between "fast" and regular
  acquisisition of the filedesc lock; the plan is that they will now all
  be fast.  Change all locking instances to either shared or exclusive
  locks.

- Correct a bug (pointed out by kib) in fdfree() where previously msleep()
  was called without the mutex held; sx_sleep() is now always called with
  the sxlock held exclusively.

- Universally hold the struct file lock over changes to struct file,
  rather than the filedesc lock or no lock.  Always update the f_ops
  field last. A further memory barrier is required here in the future
  (discussed with jhb).

- Improve locking and reference management in linux_at(), which fails to
  properly acquire vnode references before using vnode pointers.  Annotate
  improper use of vn_fullpath(), which will be replaced at a future date.

In fcntl(), we conservatively acquire an exclusive lock, even though in
some cases a shared lock may be sufficient, which should be revisited.
The dropping of the filedesc lock in fdgrowtable() is no longer required
as the sxlock can be held over the sleep operation; we should consider
removing that (pointed out by attilio).

Without this patch, a socket could cause SIGPIPE to be delivered to its

d9f4623307 - Split ioctl() up into ioctl() and kern_ioctl(). The kern_ioctl() assumes
that the 'data' pointer is already setup to point to a valid KVM buffer
  or contains the copied-in data from userland as appropriate (ioctl(2)
  still does this).  kern_ioctl() takes care of looking up a file pointer,
  implementing FIONCLEX and FIOCLEX, and calling fi_ioctl().
- Use kern_ioctl() to implement xenix_rdchk() instead of using the stackgap
  and mark xenix_rdchk() MPSAFE.

returns EBADF.  That errno is correct and is mandated by POSIX.  It also

The _fget() function should probably also be upated as it currently returns
EINVAL in that case rather than EBADF.  (It does return EBADF for reads
on a write-only descriptor without any XXX comments oddly enough.)

bcd9e0dd20 - Add two new system calls: preadv() and pwritev() which are like readv()
and writev() except that they take an additional offset argument and do
  not change the current file position.  In SAT speak:
  preadv:readv::pread:read and pwritev:writev::pwrite:write.
- Try to reduce code duplication some by merging most of the old
  kern_foov() and dofilefoo() functions into new dofilefoo() functions
  that are called by kern_foov() and kern_pfoov().  The non-v functions
  now all generate a simple uio on the stack from the passed in arguments
  and then call kern_foov().  For example, read() now just builds a uio and
  calls kern_readv() and pwrite() just builds a uio and calls kern_pwritev().

2de92a386e Conditionally weaken sys_generic.c rev 1.136 to allow certain dubious
ioctl numbers in backwards compatability mode.  eg: an IOC_IN ioctl with
a size of zero.  Traditionally this was what you did before IOC_VOID
existed, and we had some established users of this in the tree, namely
procfs.  Certain 3rd party drivers with binary userland components also
have this too.

This is necessary to have 4.x and 5.x binaries use these ioctl's.  We
found this at work when trying to run 4.x binaries.

44f3b09204 Switch the sleep/wakeup and condition variable implementations to use the
sleep queue interface:
- Sleep queues attempt to merge some of the benefits of both sleep queues
  and condition variables.  Having sleep qeueus in a hash table avoids
  having to allocate a queue head for each wait channel.  Thus, struct cv
  has shrunk down to just a single char * pointer now.  However, the
  hash table does not hold threads directly, but queue heads.  This means
  that once you have located a queue in the hash bucket, you no longer have
  to walk the rest of the hash chain looking for threads.  Instead, you have
  a list of all the threads sleeping on that wait channel.
- Outside of the sleepq code and the sleep/cv code the kernel no longer
  differentiates between cv's and sleep/wakeup.  For example, calls to
  abortsleep() and cv_abort() are replaced with a call to sleepq_abort().
  Thus, the TDF_CVWAITQ flag is removed.  Also, calls to unsleep() and
  cv_waitq_remove() have been replaced with calls to sleepq_remove().
- The sched_sleep() function no longer accepts a priority argument as
  sleep's no longer inherently bump the priority.  Instead, this is soley
  a propery of msleep() which explicitly calls sched_prio() before
  blocking.
- The TDF_ONSLEEPQ flag has been dropped as it was never used.  The
  associated TDF_SET_ONSLEEPQ and TDF_CLR_ON_SLEEPQ macros have also been
  dropped and replaced with a single explicit clearing of td_wchan.
  TD_SET_ONSLEEPQ() would really have only made sense if it had taken
  the wait channel and message as arguments anyway.  Now that that only
  happens in one place, a macro would be overkill.

91d5354a2c Locking for the per-process resource limits structure.
- struct plimit includes a mutex to protect a reference count.  The plimit
  structure is treated similarly to struct ucred in that is is always copy
  on write, so having a reference to a structure is sufficient to read from
  it without needing a further lock.
- The proc lock protects the p_limit pointer and must be held while reading
  limits from a process to keep the limit structure from changing out from
  under you while reading from it.
- Various global limits that are ints are not protected by a lock since
  int writes are atomic on all the archs we support and thus a lock
  wouldn't buy us anything.
- All accesses to individual resource limits from a process are abstracted
  behind a simple lim_rlimit(), lim_max(), and lim_cur() API that return
  either an rlimit, or the current or max individual limit of the specified
  resource from a process.
- dosetrlimit() was renamed to kern_setrlimit() to match existing style of
  other similar syscall helper functions.
- The alpha OSF/1 compat layer no longer calls getrlimit() and setrlimit()
  (it didn't used the stackgap when it should have) but uses lim_rlimit()
  and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The svr4 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits calls,
  but uses lim_rlimit() and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The ibcs2 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits.  It
  also no longer uses the stackgap for accessing sysctl's for the
  ibcs2_sysconf() syscall but uses kernel_sysctl() instead.  As a result,
  ibcs2_sysconf() no longer needs Giant.
- The p_rlimit macro no longer exists.
