following sysctl variables:
debug.mutex.prof.enable enable / disable profiling
debug.mutex.prof.acquisitions number of mutex acquisitions recorded
debug.mutex.prof.records number of acquisition points recorded
debug.mutex.prof.maxrecords max number of acquisition points
debug.mutex.prof.rejected number of rejections (due to full table)
debug.mutex.prof.hashsize hash size
debug.mutex.prof.collisions number of hash collisions
debug.mutex.prof.stats profiling statistics
The code records four numbers for each acquisition point (identified by
source file name and line number): longest time held, total time held,
number of non-recursive acquisitions, average time held. The measurements
are in clock cycles (as returned by get_cyclecount(9)); this may cause
measurements on some SMP systems to be unreliable. This can probably be
worked around by replacing get_cyclecount(9) by some incarnation of
nanotime(9).
This work was derived from initial patches by eivind.
dump the trace buffer feasible.
- Remove KTR_EXTEND. This changes the format of the trace entries when
activated, making writing a userland tool which is not tied to a specific
kernel configuration difficult.
- Use get_cyclecount() for timestamps. nanotime() is much too heavy weight
and requires recursion protection due to ktr traces occuring as a result
of ktr traces. KTR_VERBOSE may still require recursion protection, which
is now conditional on it.
- Allow KTR_CPU to be overridden by MD code. This is so that it is possible
to trace early in startup before pcpu and/or curthread are setup.
- Add a version number for the ktr interface. A userland tool can check this
to detect mismatches.
- Use an array for the parameters to make decoding in userland easier.
- Add file and line recording to the non-extended traces now that the extended
version is no more.
These changes will break gdb macros to decode the extended version of the
trace buffer which are floating around. Users of these macros should either
use the show ktr command in ddb, or use the userland utility which can be run
on a core dump.

The stat() and open() calls have been changed to make use of this new functionality. Using shared locks in
these cases is sufficient and can significantly reduce their latency if IO is pending to these vnodes. Also,
this reduces the number of exclusive locks that are floating around in the system, which helps reduce the
number of deadlocks that occur.
A new kernel option "LOOKUP_SHARED" has been added. It defaults to off so this patch can be turned on for
testing, and should eventually go away once it is proven to be stable. I have personally been running this
patch for over a year now, so it is believed to be fully stable.

and VM_BCACHE_SIZE_MAX, or with loader variables kern.maxswzone and
kern.maxbcache. This has the effect of leaving more KVM available for

running out of KVM.

directories. When enabled via "options UFS_DIRHASH", in-core hash
arrays are maintained for large directories. These allow all
directory operations to take place quickly instead of requiring
long linear searches. For now anyway, dirhash is not enabled by
default.
The in-core hash arrays have a memory requirement that is approximately
half the size of the size of the on-disk directory file. A number
of new sysctl variables allow control over which directories get
hashed and over the maximum amount of memory that dirhash will use:
vfs.ufs.dirhash_minsize
The minimum on-disk directory size for which hashing should be
used. The default is 2560 (2.5k).
vfs.ufs.dirhash_maxmem
The system-wide maximum total memory to be used by dirhash data
structures. The default is 2097152 (2MB).
The current amount of memory being used by dirhash is visible
through the read-only sysctl variable vfs.ufs.dirhash_maxmem.
Finally, some extra sanity checks that are enabled by default, but
which may have an impact on performance, can be disabled by setting
vfs.ufs.dirhash_docheck to 0.

implementation is still experimental, and while fairly broadly tested,
is not yet intended for production use. Support for POSIX.1e ACLs on
UFS will not be MFC'd to RELENG_4.
This implementation works by providing implementations of VOP_[GS]ETACL()
for FFS, as well as modifying the appropriate access control and file
creation routines. In this implementation, ACLs are backed into extended
attributes; the base ACL (owner, group, other) permissions remain in the
inode for performance and compatibility reasons, so only the extended and
default ACLs are placed in extended attributes. The logic for ACL
evaluation is provided by the fs-independent kern/kern_acl.c.
o Introduce UFS_ACL, a compile-time configuration option that enables
support for ACLs on FFS (and potentially other UFS-based file systems).
o Introduce ufs_getacl(), ufs_setacl(), ufs_aclcheck(), which
respectively get, set, and check the ACLs on the passed vnode.
o Introduce ufs_sync_acl_from_inode(), ufs_sync_inode_from_acl() to
maintain access control information between inode permissions and
extended attribute data.
o Modify ufs_access() to load a file access ACL and invoke
vaccess_acl_posix1e() if ACLs are available on the file system
o Modify ufs_mkdir() and ufs_makeinode() to associate ACLs with newly
created directories and files, inheriting from the parent directory's
default ACL.
o Enable these new vnode operations and conditionally compiled code
paths if UFS_ACL is defined.
A few notes:
o This implementation is fairly widely tested, but still should be
considered experimental.
o Currently, ACLs are not exported via NFS, instead, the summarizing
file mode/etc from the inode is. This results in conservative
protection behavior, similar to the behavior of ACL-nonaware programs
acting locally.
o It is possible that underlying binary data formats associated with
this implementation may change. Consumers of the implementation
should expect to find their local configuration obsoleted in the
next few months, resulting in possible loss of ACL data during an
upgrade.
o The extended attributes interface and implementation is still
undergoing modification to address portable interface concerns, as
well as performance.
o Many applications do not yet correctly handle ACLs. In general,
due to the POSIX.1e ACL model, behavior of ACL-unaware applications
will be conservative with respects to file protection; some caution
is recommended.
o Instructions for configuring and maintaining ACLs on UFS will be
committed in the near future; in the mean time it is possible to
reference the README included in the last UFS ACL distribution
placed in the TrustedBSD web site:
