configtimer().
During normal operation "state->nextcallopt" will always be less than
or equal to "state->nextcall" and checking only "state->nextcallopt"
before calling "callout_process()" is sufficient. However when
"configtimer()" is called a race might happen requiring both of these
binary times to be checked.
Short description of race:
1) A configtimer() call will reset both "state->nextcall" and
"state->nextcallopt" to the same binary time.
2) If a "callout_reset()" call happens between "configtimer()" and the
next "callout_process()" call, "state->nextcallopt" will get updated
and "state->nextcall" will remain at the current time. Refer to logic
inside cpu_new_callout().
3) getnextcpuevent() only respects "state->nextcall" and returns this
value over and over again, even if it is in the past, until "now >=
state->nextcallopt" becomes true. Then these two time variables are
corrected by a "callout_process()" call and the situation goes back to
normal.
The problem manifests itself in different ways. The common factor is
the timer process(es) consume all CPU on one or more CPU cores for a
long time, blocking other kernel processes from getting execution
time. This can be seen by very high interrupt counts as displayed by
"vmstat -i | grep timer" right after boot.
When EARLY_AP_STARTUP was enabled in r310177 the likelyhood of hitting
this bug apparently increased.
Example output from "vmstat -i" before patch:
cpu0:timer 7591 69
cpu9:timer 39031773 358089
cpu4:timer 9359 85
cpu3:timer 9100 83
cpu2:timer 9620 88
Example output from "vmstat -i" after patch:
cpu0:timer 4242 34
cpu6:timer 5531 44
cpu3:timer 6450 52
cpu1:timer 4545 36
cpu9:timer 7153 58

Commit r270423 fixed a regression in sched_yield() that was introduced
in earlier changes. Unfortunately, at the same time it introduced an
new regression. The problem is that SWT_RELINQUISH (6), like all other
SWT_* constants and unlike SW_* flags, is not a bit flag. So, (flags &
SWT_RELINQUISH) is true in cases where that was not really indended,
for example, with SWT_OWEPREEMPT (2) and SWT_REMOTEPREEMPT (11).
A straight forward fix would be to use (flags & SW_TYPE_MASK) ==
SWT_RELINQUISH, but my impression is that the switch types are designed
mostly for gathering statistics, not for influencing scheduling
decisions.
So, I decided that it would be better to check for SW_PREEMPT flag
instead. That's also the same flag that was checked before r239157.
I double-checked how that flag is used and I am confident that the flag
is set only in the places where we really have the preemption:
- critical_exit + td_owepreempt
- sched_preempt in the ULE scheduler
- sched_preempt in the 4BSD scheduler

- Add support for hardware driven, Receive Side Scaling, RSS aware, rate
limited sendqueues and expose the functionality through the already
established SO_MAX_PACING_RATE setsockopt(). The API support rates in
the range from 1 to 4Gbytes/s which are suitable for regular TCP and
UDP streams. The setsockopt(2) manual page has been updated.
- Add rate limit function callback API to "struct ifnet" which supports
the following operations: if_snd_tag_alloc(), if_snd_tag_modify(),
if_snd_tag_query() and if_snd_tag_free().
- Add support to ifconfig to view, set and clear the IFCAP_TXRTLMT
flag, which tells if a network driver supports rate limiting or not.
- This patch also adds support for rate limiting through VLAN and LAGG
intermediate network devices.
- How rate limiting works:
1) The userspace application calls setsockopt() after accepting or
making a new connection to set the rate which is then stored in the
socket structure in the kernel. Later on when packets are transmitted
a check is made in the transmit path for rate changes. A rate change
implies a non-blocking ifp->if_snd_tag_alloc() call will be made to the
destination network interface, which then sets up a custom sendqueue
with the given rate limitation parameter. A "struct m_snd_tag" pointer is
returned which serves as a "snd_tag" hint in the m_pkthdr for the
subsequently transmitted mbufs.
2) When the network driver sees the "m->m_pkthdr.snd_tag" different
from NULL, it will move the packets into a designated rate limited sendqueue
given by the snd_tag pointer. It is up to the individual drivers how the rate
limited traffic will be rate limited.
3) Route changes are detected by the NIC drivers in the ifp->if_transmit()
routine when the ifnet pointer in the incoming snd_tag mismatches the
one of the network interface. The network adapter frees the mbuf and
returns EAGAIN which causes the ip_output() to release and clear the send
tag. Upon next ip_output() a new "snd_tag" will be tried allocated.
4) When the PCB is detached the custom sendqueue will be released by a
non-blocking ifp->if_snd_tag_free() call to the currently bound network
interface.

drain timeout handling to historical freebsd behavior.
The primary reason for these changes is the need to have tty_drain() call
ttydevsw_busy() at some reasonable sub-second rate, to poll hardware that
doesn't signal an interrupt when the transmit shift register becomes empty
(which includes virtually all USB serial hardware). Such hardware hangs
in a ttyout wait, because it never gets an opportunity to trigger a wakeup
from the sleep in tty_drain() by calling ttydisc_getc() again, after
handing the last of the buffered data to the hardware.
While researching the history of changes to tty_drain() I stumbled across
some email describing the historical BSD behavior of tcdrain() and close()
on serial ports, and the ability of comcontrol(1) to control timeout
behavior. Using that and some advice from Bruce Evans as a guide, I've
put together these changes to implement the hardware polling and restore
the historical timeout behaviors...
- tty_drain() now calls ttydevsw_busy() in a loop at 10 Hz to accomodate
hardware that requires polling for busy state.
- The "new historical" behavior for draining during close(2) is retained:
the drain timeout is "1 second without making any progress". When the
1-second timeout expires, if the count of bytes remaining in the tty
layer buffer is smaller than last time, the timeout is extended for
another second. Unfortunately, the same logic cannot be extended all
the way down to the hardware, because the interface to that layer is a
simple busy/not-busy indication.
- Due to the previous point, an application that needs a guarantee that
all data has been transmitted must use TIOCDRAIN/tcdrain(3) before
calling close(2).
- The historical behavior of honoring the drainwait setting for TIOCDRAIN
(used by tcdrain(3)) is restored.
- The historical kern.drainwait sysctl to control the global default
drainwait time is restored, but is now named kern.tty_drainwait.
- The historical default drainwait timeout of 300 seconds is restored.
- Handling of TIOCGDRAINWAIT and TIOCSDRAINWAIT ioctls is restored
(this also makes the comcontrol(1) drainwait verb work again).
- Manpages are updated to document these behaviors.

Upon each execve, we allocate a KVA range for use in copying data to the
new image. Pages must be faulted into the range, and when the range is
freed, the backing pages are freed and their mappings are destroyed. This

bottleneck when many CPUs are executing execve concurrently. Moreover, the
number of available ranges is fixed at 16, which is insufficient on large
systems and potentially excessive on 32-bit systems.
The new allocator reduces overhead by making exec_map allocations

- sysctl is a tree of string component names.
- Prometheus uses a flat namespace for its metrics, but allows you to

The change presented in this commit adds support for accomplishing this,

The old DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O control was renamed to DIOCSKERNELDUMP_FREEBSD11 for
backward ABI compatibility.
dumpon(8) generates an one-time random symmetric key and encrypts it using
an RSA public key in capability mode. Currently only AES-256-CBC is supported
but EKCD was designed to implement support for other algorithms in the future.
The public key is chosen using the -k flag. The dumpon rc(8) script can do this
automatically during startup using the dumppubkey rc.conf(5) variable. Once the
keys are calculated dumpon sends them to the kernel via DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O
control.
When the kernel receives the DIOCSKERNELDUMP I/O control it generates a random
IV and sets up the key schedule for the specified algorithm. Each time the
kernel tries to write a crash dump to the dump device, the IV is replaced by
a SHA-256 hash of the previous value. This is intended to make a possible
differential cryptanalysis harder since it is possible to write multiple crash
dumps without reboot by repeating the following commands:
# sysctl debug.kdb.enter=1
db> call doadump(0)
db> continue
# savecore
A kernel dump key consists of an algorithm identifier, an IV and an encrypted
symmetric key. The kernel dump key size is included in a kernel dump header.
The size is an unsigned 32-bit integer and it is aligned to a block size.
The header structure has 512 bytes to match the block size so it was required to
make a panic string 4 bytes shorter to add a new field to the header structure.
If the kernel dump key size in the header is nonzero it is assumed that the
kernel dump key is placed after the first header on the dump device and the core
dump is encrypted.
Separate functions were implemented to write the kernel dump header and the
kernel dump key as they need to be unencrypted. The dump_write function encrypts
data if the kernel was compiled with the EKCD option. Encrypted kernel textdumps
are not supported due to the way they are constructed which makes it impossible
to use the CBC mode for encryption. It should be also noted that textdumps don't
contain sensitive data by design as a user decides what information should be
dumped.
savecore(8) writes the kernel dump key to a key.# file if its size in the header
is nonzero. # is the number of the current core dump.
decryptcore(8) decrypts the core dump using a private RSA key and the kernel
dump key. This is performed by a child process in capability mode.
If the decryption was not successful the parent process removes a partially
decrypted core dump.
Description on how to encrypt crash dumps was added to the decryptcore(8),
dumpon(8), rc.conf(5) and savecore(8) manual pages.
EKCD was tested on amd64 using bhyve and i386, mipsel and sparc64 using QEMU.
The feature still has to be tested on arm and arm64 as it wasn't possible to run
FreeBSD due to the problems with QEMU emulation and lack of hardware.

kinfo_proc::ki_tdname is three characters shorter than
thread::td_name. Add a ki_moretdname field for these three
extra characters. Add the new field to kinfo_proc32, as well.
Update all in-tree consumers to read the new field and assemble
the full name, except for lldb's HostThreadFreeBSD.cpp, which
I will handle separately. Bump __FreeBSD_version.

- Do not acquire the process spinlock if neither WTRAPPED nor WUNTRACED
options were passed [1].
- Extract the code to report alive process into a new helper
report_alive_proc() and use it for trapped, stopped and continued
childrens.
Note that the process spinlock is required around the WTRAPPED and
WUNTRACED tests, because P_STOPPED_TRACE and P_STOPPED_SIG flags are
set before other threads are stopped at the suspension point, and that
threads increment p_suspcount while owning only the process spinlock,
the process lock is dropped by them. If the spinlock is not taken for
tests, the syscall thread might miss both p_suspcount increment and
wakeup in wakeup in thread_suspend_switch().

Instead of failing with ENAMETOOLONG, which is swallowed by
pthread_set_name_np() anyway, truncate the given name to MAXCOMLEN+1
bytes. This is more likely what the user wants, and saves the
caller from truncating it before the call (which was the only
recourse).
Polish pthread_set_name_np(3) and add a .Xr to thr_set_name(2)
so the user might find the documentation for this behavior.

Since the vnode is only expected to be shared locked, we can save a

As of r234483, vnode deactivation causes non-VPO_NOSYNC pages to be
laundered. This behaviour has two problems:
1. Dirty VPO_NOSYNC pages must be laundered before the vnode can be
reclaimed, and this work may be unfairly deferred to the vnlru process
or an unrelated application when the system is under vnode pressure.
2. Deactivation of a vnode with dirty VPO_NOSYNC pages requires a scan of
the corresponding VM object's memq for non-VPO_NOSYNC dirty pages; if
the laundry thread needs to launder pages from an unreferenced such
vnode, it will reactivate and deactivate the vnode with each laundering,
potentially resulting in a large number of expensive scans.
Therefore, ensure that all dirty pages are laundered upon deactivation,
i.e., when all maps of the vnode are removed and all references are
released.

The callout subsystem already handles early callouts and schedules
the first clock interrupt appropriately based on the currently pending
callouts. The one nit to fix was that callouts scheduled via C_HARDCLOCK
during early boot could fire too early once timers were enabled as the
per-CPU base time is always zero until timers are initialized. The change
in callout_when() handles this case by using the current uptime as the
base time of the callout during bootup if the per-CPU base time is zero.

The size can be changed by side effect of modifying kern.maxvnodes.
Since numbucketlocks was not modified, setting a sufficiently low value
would give more locks than actual buckets, which would then lead to
corruption.
Force the number of buckets to be not smaller.
Note this should not matter for real world cases.

The swap pager enqueues laundered pages near the head of the inactive queue
to avoid another trip through LRU before reclamation. This change adds
support for this behaviour to the vnode pager and makes use of it in UFS and
ext2fs. Some ioflag handling is consolidated into a common subroutine so
that this support can be easily extended to other filesystems which make use
of the buffer cache. No changes are needed for ZFS since its putpages
routine always undirties the pages before returning, and the laundry
thread requeues the pages appropriately in this case.

do any speculations about readahead, and use exactly the amount of readahead
specified by user. E.g. setting SF_FLAGS(0, SF_USER_READAHEAD) will guarantee
that no readahead at all will be performed.
sendfile_swapin() loop works this way:
- Find first invalid page in the request.
- Do vm_pager_has_page() and get count of pages, that can be taken in
single I/O.
- Trim valid pages from the end of the request.
- Cycle through the request and substitute to bogus_page all valid
pages that are in the middle of the request.
- After I/O launched (pager copies array of pages into buf(9), it
is important to restore proper page pointers with help vm_page_lookup().
Count bogus pages used and report them in sendfile stats.
not remove user-space visible fields from vm_cnt or all of the references to
cached pages from comments. Those changes will come later.)

The negative list shrinker can demote an entry with only hotlist + neglist
locks held. On the other hand entry removal possibly sets the NCF_DVDROP
without aformentioned locks held prior to detaching it from the respective
netlist., which can lose the update made by the shrinker.

Although the higher end MIPS hardware handles cache aliasing issues in
hardware, the older cores (r4k, etc) and some compile versions of the
newer cores (mips24k, mips34k, mips74k) don't have this feature.
This means we end up with some very unfortunate behaviour that was
made very obvious by some recent changes to the FFS pager by kib.
So, flip this off until we get our MIPS pmap/cache code upgraded to
handle aliased pages in software.

The default (512) wastes quite a bit of space which doesn't really buy
us much on highly embedded systems which don't take a lot of locks in
parallel.
This makes it at least build time configurable so people can experiment.
Currently mount update keeps vfs_busy(9) reference on the mount point
during MNT_UPDATE VFS_MOUNT() vfsops call. This already provides the
exclusion, but is problematic for filesystems which need to perform
namei(9) during VFS_MOUNT(MNT_UPDATE) operations, e.g. to refresh
mnt_from path, because namei(9) must not be called while the
vfs_busy(9) reference is owned.
Check for MNT_UPDATE flag before setting MNTK_UNMOUNT, and for
MNTK_UNMOUNT before entering innards of vfs_domount_update(), failing
syscalls with EBUSY if conflict is detected. Keep vfs_busy(9)
reference around VFS_MOUNT(MNT_UPDATE) calls still to not change VFS
KPI.
In the update path in ffs_mount(), drop vfs_busy() reference around
namei(), which is now safe due to unmount never executing in parallel
with VFS_MOUNT(MNT_UPDATE), and which avoids the deadlock.
