the LIST checks). Races may lead to list corruption, which can be
difficult to unravel in a post-mortem analysis. These checks verify
that the prev and next pointers are consistent when inserting or
removing elements, thus catching any corruption earlier.
It uses doxygen to generate the API documentation. For each subsystem
a very small (about 20 lines with comments) subsystem specific Doxyfile
has to be written (have a look at the README for more). All common doxygen
options are specified in a separate file.
The framework is configured to not only generate the HTML version, but also
a PDF version (the paper size is hardcoded to DIN A4 currently and depending
on the subsystem you have to increase some limits in the latex configuration
of your system, the README tells more about this).
It also allows cross-references between the subsystems (it generates doxygen
tag files).
Currently the docs are generated in OBJDIR, but this may change after
coordination with doc@. The makefile is prepared to generate/move various
parts of the generated docs to different destinations.
TARGET_ARCH is respected and some env-vars are set for architecture specific
handling of the source (the README tells more).
Subsystems for which docs are generated:
- cam - crypto - dev_pci
- dev_sound - dev_usb - geom
- i4b - kern - libkern
- linux - net80211 - netgraph
- netinet - netinet6 - netipsec
- opencrypto - vm

This used to make syscons switch to vty0 when we entered DDB but this
was lost in the KDB shuffle. We may want to bring it back down the road
but it should be done by calling cn_init_t/cn_term_t instead, possibly
with a flag argument saying "Debugger!"
other timeouts could not happen while suspending, including timeouts
for things like msleep. This caused the system to hang on suspend
when the cbb was enabled, since its suspend path powered down the
socket which used a timeout to wait for it to be done.
APM now creates a thread when it is enabled, and deletes the thread
when it is disabled. This thread takes the place of the timeout by
doing its polling every ~.9s. When the thread is disabled, it will
wakeup early, otherwise it times out and polls the varius things the
old timeout polled (APM events, suspend delays, etc).
This makes my Sony VAIO 505TS suspend/resume correctly when APM is
enabled (ACPI is black listed on my 505TS).
This will likely fix other problems with the suspend path where
drivers would sleep with msleep and/or do other timeouts. Maybe
there's some special case code that would use DELAY while suspending
and msleep otherwise that can be revisited and removed.
This was also tested by glebius@, who pointed out that in the patch I
sent him, I'd forgotten apm_saver.c

We already check for write() failures and handle EPIPE.
Failure to handle SIGPIPE was resulting in rpc.lockd terminating.

sendfile(). This causes sendfile() to use the file descriptor
reference to the socket instead of bumping the socket reference
count, which avoids an additional refcount operation, as well as a
potential expensive socket refcount drop, which can lead to
contention on the accept mutex. This change also has the side
effect of further reducing the number of cases where an in-progress
I/O operation can occur on a socket after close, as using the file
descriptor refcount prevents the socket from closing while in use.

If B_NOCACHE is set the pages of vm backed buffers will be invalidated.
However clean buffers can be backed by dirty VM pages so invalidating them
can lead to data loss.
Add support for flush dirty page in the data invalidation function
of some network file systems.
This fixes data losses during vnode recycling (and other code paths
using invalbuf(*,V_SAVE,*,*)) for data written using an mmaped file.

stopped before adjusting their priority and setting them on the run
q so they cannot race for resources (pointed out by njl).
While here add a console printf on thread create fails; otherwise
noone may notice (e.g. return value is always 0 and caller has no
way to verify).
