freebsd with flexible iflib nic queues
a1788fb41e
- Use the dh_inserted member of the dispatch header in the Windows timer structure to indicate that the timer has been "inserted into the timer queue" (i.e. armed via timeout()). Use this as the value to return to the caller in KeCancelTimer(). Previously, I was using callout_pending(), but you can't use that with timeout()/untimeout() without creating a potential race condition. - Make ntoskrnl_init_timer() just a wrapper around ntoskrnl_init_timer_ex() (reduces some code duplication). - Drop Giant when entering if_ndis.c:ndis_tick() and subr_ntorkrnl.c:ntoskrnl_timercall(). At the moment, I'm forced to use system callwheel via timeout()/untimeout() to handle timers rather than the callout API (struct callout is too big to fit inside the Windows struct KTIMER, so I'm kind of hosed). Unfortunately, all the callouts in the callwhere are not marked as MPSAFE, so when one of them fires, it implicitly acquires Giant before invoking the callback routine (and releases it when it returns). I don't need to hold Giant, but there's no way to stop the callout code from acquiring it as long as I'm using timeout()/untimeout(), so for now we cheat by just dropping Giant right away (and re-acquiring it right before the routine returns so keep the callout code happy). At some point, I will need to solve this better, but for now this should be a suitable workaround. |

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.
