Bruce Evans 90adad104b The log message for the previous commit didn't mention the most the
important detail that sc_cngetc() now opens and closes the keyboard
on every call again.  This was moved from sc_cngetc() to scn_cngrab/
ungrab() in r228644, but the change wasn't quite complete.  After
fixes for nesting in kbdd_poll() in ukbd and kbdmux, these opens
and closes should have no significant effect if done while grabbed.
They fix unusual cases when cngetc() is called while not grabbed.

This commit is the main fix for screen locking in sc_cnputc():
detect deadlock or likely-deadlock and handle it by buffering the
output atomically and printing it later if the deadlock condition
clears (and sc_cnputc() is called).

The most common deadlock is when the screen lock is held by ourself.
Then it would be safe to acquire the lock recursively if the console
driver is calling printf() in a safe context, but we don't know when
that is.  It is not safe to ignore the lock even in kdb or panic mode.
But ignore it in panic mode.  The only other known case of deadlock
is when another thread holds the lock but is running on a stopped CPU.
Detect that case approximately by using trylock and retrying for 1000
usec.  On a 4 GHz CPU, 100 usec is almost long enough -- screen switches
take slightly longer than that.  Not retrying at all is good enough
except for stress tests, and planned future versions will extend the
timeout so that the stress tests work better.

To see the behaviour when deadlock is detected, single step through
sctty_outwakeup() (or sc_puts() to start with deadlock).  Another
(serial) console is needed to the buffered-only output, but the
keyboard works in this context to continue or step out of the
deadlocked region.  The buffer is not large enough to hold all the
output for this.

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.  See build(7)
and 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.  See build(7), config(8),
and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
for more information.

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 kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory.  GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.
