objects rather than synchronization objects. When a sync object is
signaled, only the first thread waiting on it is woken up, and then
it's automatically reset to the not-signaled state. When a
notification object is signaled, all threads waiting on it will
be woken up, and it remains in the signaled state until someone
resets it manually. We want the latter behavior for NDIS events.
- In kern_ndis.c:ndis_convert_res(), we have to create a temporary
copy of the list returned by BUS_GET_RESOURCE_LIST(). When the PCI
bus code probes resources for a given device, it enters them into
a singly linked list, head first. The result is that traversing
this list gives you the resources in reverse order. This means when
we create the Windows resource list, it will be in reverse order too.
Unfortunately, this can hose drivers for devices with multiple I/O
ranges of the same type, like, say, two memory mapped I/O regions (one
for registers, one to map the NVRAM/bootrom/whatever). Some drivers
test the range size to figure out which region is which, but others
just assume that the resources will be listed in ascending order from
lowest numbered BAR to highest. Reversing the order means such drivers
will choose the wrong resource as their I/O register range.
Since we can't traverse the resource SLIST backwards, we have to
make a temporary copy of the list in the right order and then build
the Windows resource list from that. I suppose we could just fix
the PCI bus code to use a TAILQ instead, but then I'd have to track
down all the consumers of the BUS_GET_RESOURCE_LIST() and fix them
too.
Compute the payload checksum for a locally originated IP multicast where
God intended, in ip_mloopback(), rather than doing it in ip_output() and
only when multicast router is active. This is more correct as we do not
fool ip_input() that the packet has the correct payload checksum when in
fact it does not (when multicast router is inactive). This is also more
efficient if we don't join the multicast group we send to, thus allowing
the hardware to checksum the payload.
which pulls a job off a thread work queue (assuming it hasn't run yet).
This is needed for KeRemoveQueueDpc().
- In subr_ntoskrnl.c, implement KeInsertQueueDpc() and KeRemoveQueueDpc(),
to go with KeInitializeDpc() to round out the API. Also change the
KeTimer implementation to use this API instead of the private
timer callout scheduler. Functionality of the timer API remains
unchanged, but we get a couple new Windows kernel API routines and
more closely imitate the way thing works in Windows. (As of yet
I haven't encountered any drivers that use KeInsertQueueDpc() or
KeRemoveQueueDpc(), but it doesn't hurt to have them.)
Report the %ecx bits in cpuid function 1. This is a hack.
When reporting AMD Features, only mask off the common bits. Otherwise
the SEP bit masks off SYSCALL etc in the report.
variable length, so we should not be trying to copy it into a fixed
length buffer, especially one on the stack. malloc() a buffer of the
right size and return a pointer to that instead.
Fixes a crash I discovered when testing whe a Cisco AP in infrastructure
mode, which returns several information elements that make the
ndis_wlan_bssid_ex structure larger than expected.
Because xfer->send.payload is a pointer to the buffer, '&' shouldn't be there.

(1 << 24) - 2 instead of 1 << 24, which it was obviously intended to
be). This fixes SBus isp(4)s on sparc64 machines.

iommu_dvma_vallocseg(), which I botched in r1.32. This bug could
cause an endless loop when a map was loaded and DVMA was scarce,
or that map had a stringent alignment or boundary.
Report and additional testing: Marius Strobl <marius@alchemy.franken.de>
in cpu_fork(). This prevents the stack tracer from running past the
end of the stack (only the pc is checked in that case), which became
fatal when db_print_backtrace() was introduced and called outside
of ddb.
Additional testing: kris
caused hangs on SMP systems under load. My theory was that an interrupted
thread was migrating and returning to PAL on a different CPU and that that
caused the hangs. To prevent this, I used the recently added sched_pin()
API to pin the interrupted thread to the CPU that received the interrupt
across ithread_schedule() to prevent migration. This seems to have fixed
the hangs based on tests by several folks on the alpha@ list.
Tested by: wilko, tisco, several others on alpha@
(NIC would claim to establish a link with an ad-hoc net but it couldn't
send/receive packets). It turns out that every time the checkforhang
handler was called by ndis_ticktask(), the driver would generate a new
media connect event. The NDIS spec says the checkforhang handler is
called "approximately every 2 seconds" but using exactly 2 seconds seems
too fast. Using 3 seconds makes it happy again, so we'll go with that
for now.
extra entry for if_ndis_pci.c that depends on cardbus, just to cover
all the bases. (I don't think you can have cardbus without PCI, but
just in case...)
- Add gre_mtx to protect global softc list.
- Hold gre_mtx over various list operations (insert, delete).
- Centralize if_gre interface teardown in gre_destroy(), and call this
from modevent unload and gre_clone_destroy().
- Export gre_mtx to ip_gre.c, which walks the gre list to look up gre
interfaces during encapsulation. Add a wonking comment on how we need
some sort of drain/reference count mechanism to keep gre references
alive while in use and simultaneous destroy.
This commit does not lockdown softc data, which follows in a future
commit.
- Add gif_mtx, which protects globals.
- Hold gif_mtx around manipulation of gif_softc_list.
- Abstract gif destruction code into gif_destroy(), which tears down
a softc after it's been removed from the global list by either module
unload or clone destroy.
- Lock gif_called, even though we know gif_called is broken with reentrant
network processing.
- Document an event ordering problem in gif_set_tunnel() that will need
to be fixed.
gif_softc fields not locked down in this commit.
processing with gif interfaces, to a global variable named "gif_called".
Add an annotation that this approach will not work with a reentrant
network stack, and that we should instead use packet tags to detect
excessive recursive processing.
