PCATCH means 'if we get a signal, interrupt me!" and tsleep returns
either EINTR or ERESTART depending on the circumstances. ERESTART is
"special" because it causes the system call to fail, but right as it
returns back to userland it tells the trap handler to move %eip back a
bit so that userland will immediately re-run the syscall.
This is a syscall restart. It only works for things like read() etc where
nothing has changed yet. Note that *userland* is tricked into restarting
the syscall by the kernel. The kernel doesn't actually do the restart. It
is deadly for things like select, poll, nanosleep etc where it might cause
the elapsed time to be reset and start again from scratch. So those
syscalls do this to prevent userland rerunning the syscall:
if (error == ERESTART) error = EINTR;
Fake "signals" like SIGTSTP from ^Z etc do not normally invoke userland
signal handlers. But, in -current, the PCATCH *is* being triggered and
tsleep is returning ERESTART, and the syscall is aborted even though no
userland signal handler was run.
That is the fault here. We're triggering the PCATCH in cases that we
shouldn't. ie: it is being triggered on *any* signal processing, rather
than the case where the signal is posted to userland.

directly change the process state from SSLEEP to SSTOP, and when

Sigio lock is really only needed to protect interrupts from dereferencing

- Close some races in psignal(). In psignal() there is a big switch
statement based on p_stat. All the different cases are assuming that
the process (or thread) isn't going to change state out from under it.
To ensure this is true, just lock sched_lock for the entire switch. We
practically held it the entire time already anyways. This also
simplifies the locking somewhat and actually results in fewer lock
operations.

privileged, or where one of the subject's (ruid, euid) matched one
of the object's (ruid, euid). In the new scenario, subject (ruid, euid)

mutex releases to not require flags for the cases when preemption is
not allowed:
The purpose of the MTX_NOSWITCH and SWI_NOSWITCH flags is to prevent
switching to a higher priority thread on mutex releease and swi schedule,
respectively when that switch is not safe. Now that the critical section
API maintains a per-thread nesting count, the kernel can easily check
whether or not it should switch without relying on flags from the
programmer. This fixes a few bugs in that all current callers of
swi_sched() used SWI_NOSWITCH, when in fact, only the ones called from
fast interrupt handlers and the swi_sched of softclock needed this flag.
Note that to ensure that swi_sched()'s in clock and fast interrupt
handlers do not switch, these handlers have to be explicitly wrapped
in critical_enter/exit pairs. Presently, just wrapping the handlers is
sufficient, but in the future with the fully preemptive kernel, the
interrupt must be EOI'd before critical_exit() is called. (critical_exit()
can switch due to a deferred preemption in a fully preemptive kernel.)
I've tested the changes to the interrupt code on i386 and alpha. I have
not tested ia64, but the interrupt code is almost identical to the alpha

This patch solves the problem in two ways. First it uses an advisory

- It splits the per-process portions of hardclock() and statclock() off
into hardclock_process() and statclock_process() respectively. hardclock()
and statclock() call the *_process() functions for the current process so
that UP systems will run as before. For SMP systems, it is simply necessary
to ensure that all other processors execute the *_process() functions when the
main clock functions are triggered on one CPU by an interrupt. For the alpha
4100, clock interrupts are delievered in a staggered broadcast fashion, so
we simply call hardclock/statclock on the boot CPU and call the *_process()
functions on the secondaries. For x86, we call statclock and hardclock as
usual and then call forward_hardclock/statclock in the MD code to send an IPI
to cause the AP's to execute forwared_hardclock/statclock which then call the
*_process() functions.
- forward_signal() and forward_roundrobin() have been reworked to be MI and to
involve less hackery. Now the cpu doing the forward sets any flags, etc. and
sends a very simple IPI_AST to the other cpu(s). AST IPIs now just basically
return so that they can execute ast() and don't bother with setting the
astpending or needresched flags themselves. This also removes the loop in
forward_signal() as sched_lock closes the race condition that the loop worked
around.
- need_resched(), resched_wanted() and clear_resched() have been changed to take
a process to act on rather than assuming curproc so that they can be used to
implement forward_roundrobin() as described above.
- Various other SMP variables have been moved to a MI subr_smp.c and a new
header sys/smp.h declares MI SMP variables and API's. The IPI API's from

is sent to a process, psignal() needs to schedule an AST for the
process if the process is runnable, not just if it is current, so that
pending signals get checked for on the next return of the process to
user mode. This wasn't practical until recently because the AST flag
was per-cpu so setting it for a non-current process would usually just
cause a bogus AST for the current process.
For non-current processes looping in user mode, it took accidental
(?) magic to deliver signals at all. Signals were usually delivered
late as a side effect of rescheduling (need_resched() sets astpending,
etc.). In pre-SMPng, delivery was delayed by at most 1 quantum (the
need_resched() call in roundrobin() is certain to occur within 1
quantum for looping processes). In -current, things are complicated
by normal interrupt handlers being threads. Missing handling of the
complications makes roundrobin() a bogus no-op, but preemptive
scheduling sort of works anyway due to even larger bogons elsewhere.
- All processes go into the same array of queues, with different
scheduling classes using different portions of the array. This
allows user processes to have their priorities propogated up into
interrupt thread range if need be.
- I chose 64 run queues as an arbitrary number that is greater than
32. We used to have 4 separate arrays of 32 queues each, so this
may not be optimal. The new run queue code was written with this
in mind; changing the number of run queues only requires changing
constants in runq.h and adjusting the priority levels.
- The new run queue code takes the run queue as a parameter. This
is intended to be used to create per-cpu run queues. Implement
wrappers for compatibility with the old interface which pass in
the global run queue structure.
- Group the priority level, user priority, native priority (before
propogation) and the scheduling class into a struct priority.
- Change any hard coded priority levels that I found to use
symbolic constants (TTIPRI and TTOPRI).
- Remove the curpriority global variable and use that of curproc.
This was used to detect when a process' priority had lowered and
it should yield. We now effectively yield on every interrupt.
- Activate propogate_priority(). It should now have the desired
effect without needing to also propogate the scheduling class.
- Temporarily comment out the call to vm_page_zero_idle() in the
idle loop. It interfered with propogate_priority() because
the idle process needed to do a non-blocking acquire of Giant
and then other processes would try to propogate their priority
onto it. The idle process should not do anything except idle.
vm_page_zero_idle() will return in the form of an idle priority
kernel thread which is woken up at apprioriate times by the vm
system.
- Update struct kinfo_proc to the new priority interface. Deliberately
change its size by adjusting the spare fields. It remained the same

would parse the data incorrectly. The size constraint should really

mtx_enter(lock, type) becomes:
mtx_lock(lock) for sleep locks (MTX_DEF-initialized locks)
mtx_lock_spin(lock) for spin locks (MTX_SPIN-initialized)
similarily, for releasing a lock, we now have:
mtx_unlock(lock) for MTX_DEF and mtx_unlock_spin(lock) for MTX_SPIN.
We change the caller interface for the two different types of locks
because the semantics are entirely different for each case, and this
makes it explicitly clear and, at the same time, it rids us of the
extra `type' argument.
The enter->lock and exit->unlock change has been made with the idea
that we're "locking data" and not "entering locked code" in mind.
Further, remove all additional "flags" previously passed to the
lock acquire/release routines with the exception of two:
MTX_QUIET and MTX_NOSWITCH
The functionality of these flags is preserved and they can be passed
to the lock/unlock routines by calling the corresponding wrappers:
mtx_{lock, unlock}_flags(lock, flag(s)) and
mtx_{lock, unlock}_spin_flags(lock, flag(s)) for MTX_DEF and MTX_SPIN
locks, respectively.
Re-inline some lock acq/rel code; in the sleep lock case, we only
inline the _obtain_lock()s in order to ensure that the inlined code
fits into a cache line. In the spin lock case, we inline recursion and
actually only perform a function call if we need to spin. This change
has been made with the idea that we generally tend to avoid spin locks
and that also the spin locks that we do have and are heavily used
(i.e. sched_lock) do recurse, and therefore in an effort to reduce
function call overhead for some architectures (such as alpha), we
inline recursion for this case.

ABI dependent struct sigframe into account.
The SVR4 and iBCS2 modules continue to have a minsigstksz of
8192 to preserve behavior. The real values (if different) are
not known at this time. Other ABI modules use the real
values.
The native MINSIGSTKSZ is now defined as follows:

the 128-bit sigset_t changes by moving conditionally (rarely) executed
code to the beginning where it is always executed, and since this code
now involves 3 128-bit operations, the pessimization was relatively
large. This change speeds up lmbench's pipe latency benchmark by
3.5%.
Fixed style bugs in CURSIG().
