freebsd with flexible iflib nic queues
Go to file
Jeff Roberson a0ebaaddef - Don't acquire the vnode interlock in drain_output(). Instead, require the
caller to acquire it.  This permits drain_output() to be done atomically
   with other operations as well as reducing the number of lock operations.
 - Assert that the proper locks are held in drain_output().
 - Change getdirtybuf() to accept a mutex as an argument.  This mutex is used
   to protect the vnode's buf list and the BKGRDWAIT flag.  This lock is
   dropped when we successfully acquire a buffer and held on return
   otherwise.  These semantics reduce the number of cumbersome cases in
   calling code.
 - Pass the mtx from getdirtybuf() into interlocked_sleep() and allow this
   mutex to be used as the interlock argument to BUF_LOCK() in the LOCKBUF
   case of interlocked_sleep().
 - Change the return value of getdirtybuf() to be the resulting locked buffer
   or NULL otherwise.  This is for callers who pass in a list head that
   requires a lock.  It is necessary since the lock that protects the list
   head must be dropped in getdirtybuf() so that we don't have a lock order
   reversal with the buf queues lock in bremfree().
 - Adjust all callers of getdirtybuf() to match the new semantics.
 - Add a comment in indir_trunc() that points at unlocked access to a buf.
   This may also be one of the last instances of incore() in the tree.

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.
