being properly cancelled by a timeout. In general there is a race between a the sleepq timeout handler firing while the thread is still in the process of going to sleep. In 6.x with sched_lock, the race was largely protected by sched_lock. The only place it was "exposed" and had to be handled was while checking for any pending signals in sleepq_catch_signals(). With the thread lock changes, the thread lock is dropped in between sleepq_add() and sleepq_*wait*() opening up a new window for this race. Thus, if the timeout fired while the sleeping thread was in between sleepq_add() and sleepq_*wait*(), the thread would be marked as timed out, but the thread would not be dequeued and sleepq_switch() would still block the thread until it was awakened via some other means. In the case of pause(9) where there is no other wakeup, the thread would never be awakened. Fix this by teaching sleepq_switch() to check if the thread has had its sleep canceled before blocking by checking the TDF_TIMEOUT flag and aborting the sleep and dequeueing the thread if it is set.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
