works again. This driver uses NdisScheduleWorkItem(), and we have to take special steps to insure that its workitems don't collide with any of the other workitems used by the NDISulator. In particular, if one of the driver's work jobs blocks, it can prevent NdisMAllocateSharedMemoryAsync() from completing when expected. The original hack to fix this was to have NdisMAllocateSharedMemoryAsync() defer its work to the DPC queue instead of the general task queue. To fix it now, I decided to add some additional workitem threads. (There's supposed to be a pool of worker threads in Windows anyway.) Currently, there are 4. There should be at least 2. One is reserved for the legacy ExQueueWorkItem() API, while the others are used in round-robin by the IoQueueWorkItem() API. NdisMAllocateSharedMemoryAsync() uses the latter API while NdisScheduleWorkItem() uses the former, so the deadlock is avoided. Fixed NdisMRegisterDevice()/NdisMDeregisterDevice() to work a little more sensibly with the new driver_object/device_object framework. It doesn't really register a working user-mode interface, but the existing code was completely wrong for the new framework. Fixed a couple of bugs dealing with the cancellation of events and DPCs. When cancelling an event that's still on the timer queue (i.e. hasn't expired yet), reset dh_inserted in its dispatch header to FALSE. Previously, it was left set to TRUE, which would make a cancelled timer appear to have not been cancelled. Also, when removing a DPC from a queue, reset its list pointers, otherwise a cancelled DPC might mistakenly be treated as still pending. Lastly, fix the behavior of ntoskrnl_wakeup() when dealing with objects that have nobody waiting on them: sync event objects get their signalled state reset to FALSE, but notification objects should still be set to TRUE.
This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
