with multiple ports on a shared interrupt demultiplexed by the puc_intr()
handler.
siointr1() first read as much input as possible and then checked all
possibly-relevant status registers, partly for robustness and partly
for historical reasons. This is very bad if it is called for every
port sharing an interrupt like puc_intr() does. It can spend too long
reading all the input for some ports when the interrupt is for a more
urgent event on another, or just too long checking all the status
registers when there are lots of ports. The inter-character time is
too long for reading all the input even when the interrupt is for a
transmitter interrupt on the same port, and at 921600 bps the inter-char
time is 10.85 usec and was often exceeded with just 2 ports, leaving
the transmitters idle for about 6% of the time.
The tweak is to break out of the read loop after reading 1 char if
output can be done. This avoids most of the idle transmitter time for
2 active ports at 921600 bps bidirectional on the test system. It
also reduces overhead by about 20%. More complete fixes use the
programmable tx low watermark on 16950's and reduce overhead by another
65%.
was rejected as a range error, while any values less than LONG_MIN
were silently substituted with LONG_MIN. Furthermore, on some
platforms `time_t' has less range than `long' (e.g. alpha), which may
give incorrect results when parsing some strings.
do not have mh_nextpkt initialized. Somtimes what's there is "1", and the
ip_input() code pukes trying to m_free() it, rendering divert sockets and
such broken.
This really underscores the need to get rid of MT_TAG.

malloc() is implicitly declared as returning int. We do similar things
here, but they work because u_int is the same as uintptr_t on i386's.)

retrieve and modify the socket label, not the label of the
rendezvous vnode.
- Create mac_copy_socket_label() entry point based on
mac_copy_pipe_label() entry point, intended to copy the socket
label into temporary storage that doesn't require a socket lock
to be held (currently Giant).
- Implement mac_copy_socket_label() for various policies.
- Expose socket label allocation, free, internalize, externalize
entry points as non-static from mac_net.c.
- Use mac_socket_label_set() in __mac_set_fd().
MAC-aware applications may now use mac_get_fd(), mac_set_fd(), and
mac_get_peer() to retrieve and set various socket labels without
directly invoking the getsockopt() interface.

Changed this buffer from a circular one to a linear one. This is more
useful for some cases and the sysctl that prints it doesn't support
circular buffers.
Fixed (output) formatting bugs in this sysctl. An off by 1 error caused
a garbage byte to be returned after annotation of large deltas, and
a race with the writer sometimes caused premature string termination.
o when compiling lint, undefine certain things and redefine them so that the
driver doesn't #error out. Since lint kernels aren't supposed to be
bootable, I'm no troubled by this breakage.

this can result in infinite recursion (or at least until we run out
of stack).
Rather than this, we ignore requests to log an error while logging an
error.

SO_PEERLABEL. This provides an interface to query the label of a
socket peer without embedding implementation details of mac_t in
the application. Previously, sizeof(*mac_t) had to be specified
by an application when performing getsockopt().
Document mac_get_peer(3), and expand documentation of the other
mac_get(3) functions. Note that it's possible to get EINVAL back
from mac_get_fd(3) when pointing it at an inappropriate object.
NOTE: mac_get_fd() and mac_set_fd() support for sockets will
follow shortly, so the documentation is slightly ahead of the
code.

While we end up the same place, we end up with two different CS register
values after the jump and 0xf000 is compatible with the hardware reset
value.
This makes a difference if the BIOS does a near jump before a far jump.

a non-fsid unmount if the file system ID is all zeros. This is a
temporary workaround for warnings that occur in the vfs.usermount=1
case because non-root users get a zeroed filesystem ID. I have a
more complete fix in the works, but I won't get it done for 5.2.
- improve sysinfo(2) syscall;
- add dummy fadvise64(2) syscall;
- add dummy *xattr(2) family of syscalls;
- add protos for the syscalls 222-225, 238-249 and 253-267;
- add exit_group(2) syscall, which is currently just wired to exit(2).

Its restoration in rev.1.102 was mistranslated to the equivalent of
setsofttty() in rev.1.105. This increased overheads by causing a
context switch to the SWI handler after almost every interrupt. The
increase was approx. 50% on a Celeron 366 (from 23 usec to 34 usec
per interrupt).
