Konstantin Belousov f7e50ea722 Fix a race between kern_setitimer() and realitexpire(), where the
callout is started before kern_setitimer() acquires process mutex, but
looses a race and kern_setitimer() gets the process mutex before the
callout.  Then, assuming that new specified struct itimerval has
it_interval zero, but it_value non-zero, the callout, after it starts
executing again, clears p->p_realtimer.it_value, but kern_setitimer()
already rescheduled the callout.

As the result of the race, both p_realtimer is zero, and the callout
is rescheduled. Then, in the exit1(), the exit code sees that it_value
is zero and does not even try to stop the callout. This allows the
struct proc to be reused and eventually the armed callout is
re-initialized.  The consequence is the corrupted callwheel tailq.

Use process mutex to interlock the callout start, which fixes the race.

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 ``world''
target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not
changed from the currently running version.  See:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
for more information, including setting make(1) variables.

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.
