-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-.Bf -symbolic
-This API is deprecated.
-Use mutexes to protect data structures instead.
-See
-.Xr mutex 9
-for more information.
-The API is now a complete NOP.
-This man page documents historical behavior so you can understand the
-code locking that the spl did when converting code from versions of the
-kernel prior to
-.Fx 5.0 .
-The examples in this man page are also obsolete and should not be viewed
-as documenting
-.Fx 5.0
-and newer.
-.Ef
-.Pp
-The
-.Fn spl
-function family sets the interrupt priority
-.Dq level
-of the CPU.
-This prevents interrupt handlers of the blocked priority level from
-being run.
-This is used in the
-.Dq synchronous
-part of a driver (the part that runs on behalf of the user process) to
-examine or modify data areas that might be examined or modified by
-interrupt handlers.
-.Pp
-Each driver that uses interrupts is normally assigned to an interrupt
-priority group by a keyword in its config line.
-For example:
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-device foo0 at isa? port 0x0815 irq 12 tty
-.Ed
-.Pp
-assigns interrupt 12 to the
-.Dq tty
-priority group.
-The system automatically arranges for interrupts in
-the
-.Em xxx
-group to be called at a priority >=
-.Em spl Ns Fn xxx
-.Pp
-The function
-.Fn splx
-sets the interrupt priority to an absolute value.
-The intent is that
-the value returned by the other functions should be saved in a local
-variable, and later passed to
-.Fn splx
-in order to restore the previous priority.
-.Pp
-The function
-.Fn spl0
-lowers the priority to a value where all interrupt handlers are
-unblocked, but ASTs (asynchronous system traps) remain blocked until
-the system is about to return to user mode.
-.Pp
-The traditional assignment of the various device drivers to the
-interrupt priority groups can be roughly classified as:
-.Bl -tag -width Fn
-.It Fn splnet
-Software part of the network interface drivers.
-.It Fn splimp
-All network interface drivers.
-.It Fn splbio
-All
-.Em buffered IO
-(i.e., disk and the like) drivers.
-.It Fn spltty
-Basically, all non-network communications devices, but effectively
-used for all drivers that are neither network nor disks.
-.El
-.Sh RETURN VALUES
-All functions except
-.Fn splx
-and
-.Fn spl0
-return the previous priority value.
-.Sh EXAMPLES
-This is a typical example demonstrating the usage:
-.Bd -literal
-struct foo_softc {
-	...
-	int flags;
-#define	FOO_ASLEEP	1
-#define	FOO_READY	2
-
-} foo_softc[NFOO];
-
-int
-foowrite(...)
-{
-	struct foo_softc *sc;
-	int s, error;
-
-	...
-	s = spltty();
-	if (!(sc->flags & FOO_READY)) {
-		/* Not ready, must sleep on resource. */
-		sc->flags |= FOO_ASLEEP;
-		error = tsleep(sc, PZERO, "foordy", 0);
-		sc->flags &= ~FOO_ASLEEP;
-	}
-	sc->flags &= ~FOO_READY;
-	splx(s);
-
-	...
-}
-
-void
-foointr(...)
-{
-	struct foo_softc *sc;
-
-	...
-	sc->flags |= FOO_READY;
-	if (sc->flags & FOO_ASLEEP)
-		/* Somebody was waiting for us, awake him. */
-		wakeup(sc);
-	...
-}
-
-.Ed
-Note that the interrupt handler should
-.Em never
-reduce the priority level.
-It is automatically called as it had
-raised the interrupt priority to its own level, i.e., further interrupts
-of the same group are being blocked.
-.Sh HISTORY
-The interrupt priority levels appeared in a very early version of
-.Ux .
-They have been traditionally known by number instead of by
-names, and were inclusive up to higher priority levels (i.e., priority
-5 has been blocking everything up to level 5).
-This is no longer the case in
-.Fx .
-The traditional name
-.Ql level
-for them is still reflected in the letter
-.Ql l
-of the respective functions and variables, although they are not
-really levels anymore, but rather different (partially inclusive)
-sets of functions to be blocked during some periods of the life of
-the system.
-The historical number scheme can be considered as a
-simple linearly ordered set of interrupt priority groups.
-.Pp
-.Fx 5.0
-eliminated spl entirely in favor of locking primitives which scale
-to more than one processor.
