* Overhaul the per-CPU support a bit:jhb2001-12-111-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - The MI portions of struct globaldata have been consolidated into a MI struct pcpu. The MD per-CPU data are specified via a macro defined in machine/pcpu.h. A macro was chosen over a struct mdpcpu so that the interface would be cleaner (PCPU_GET(my_md_field) vs. PCPU_GET(md.md_my_md_field)). - All references to globaldata are changed to pcpu instead. In a UP kernel, this data was stored as global variables which is where the original name came from. In an SMP world this data is per-CPU and ideally private to each CPU outside of the context of debuggers. This also included combining machine/globaldata.h and machine/globals.h into machine/pcpu.h. - The pointer to the thread using the FPU on i386 was renamed from npxthread to fpcurthread to be identical with other architectures. - Make the show pcpu ddb command MI with a MD callout to display MD fields. - The globaldata_register() function was renamed to pcpu_init() and now init's MI fields of a struct pcpu in addition to registering it with the internal array and list. - A pcpu_destroy() function was added to remove a struct pcpu from the internal array and list.

It returns with preemption disabled so that any further AST's that arrive via an interrupt will be delayed until the low-level MD code returns to user mode. - Use u_int's to store the tick counts for profiling purposes so that we do not need sched_lock just to read p_sticks. This also closes a problem where the call to addupc_task() could screw up the arithmetic due to non-atomic reads of p_sticks. - Axe need_proftick(), aston(), astoff(), astpending(), need_resched(), clear_resched(), and resched_wanted() in favor of direct bit operations on p_sflag. - Fix up locking with sched_lock some. In addupc_intr(), use sched_lock to ensure pr_addr and pr_ticks are updated atomically with setting PS_OWEUPC. In ast() we clear pr_ticks atomically with clearing PS_OWEUPC. We also do not grab the lock just to test a flag. - Simplify the handling of Giant in ast() slightly. Reviewed by: bde (mostly)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | been made machine independent and various other adjustments have been made to support Alpha SMP. - 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 machine/ipl.h have moved to machine/smp.h which is included by sys/smp.h. - The globaldata_register() and globaldata_find() functions as well as the SLIST of globaldata structures has become MI and moved into subr_smp.c. Also, the globaldata list is only available if SMP support is compiled in. Reviewed by: jake, peter Looked over by: eivind

Debogotified the definition of aston(). aston() was defined in terms of signotify() (perhaps because only the latter already operated on a specified process), but aston() is the primitive. Similar changes are needed in the ia64 versions of cpu.h and trap.c. I didn't make them because the ia64 is missing the prerequisite changes to make astpending and need_resched per-process and those changes are too large to make without testing.

They are still accesssed by their old macros: aston(), astoff(), etc. For completeness, an astpending() macro has been added to check for a pending AST, and clear_resched() has been added to clear need_resched(). - Rename syscall2() on the x86 back to syscall() to be consistent with other architectures.
* Change and clean the mutex lock interface.bmilekic2001-02-091-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Create a new malloc type for the witness code and retire from using the M_DEV type. The new type is called M_WITNESS and is only declared if WITNESS is enabled. Begin cleaning up some machdep/mutex.h code - specifically updated the "optimized" inlined code in alpha/mutex.h and wrote MTX_LOCK_SPIN and MTX_UNLOCK_SPIN asm macros for the i386/mutex.h as we presently need those. Finally, caught up to the interface changes in all sys code. Contributors: jake, jhb, jasone (in no particular order)

We now determine whether the process is on the alternate stack by looking at its stack pointer. This allows a process to siglongjmp from a signal handler on the alternate stack to the place of the sigsetjmp on the normal stack. When maintaining state, this would have invalidated the state information and causing a subsequent signal to be delivered on the normal stack instead of the alternate stack. PR: 22286

This is necessary for the clock interrupts to work properly. - Change the clock interrupts on the x86 to be fast instead of threaded. This is needed because both hardclock() and statclock() need to run in the context of the current process, not in a separate thread context. - Kill the prevproc hack as it is no longer needed. - We really need Giant when we call psignal(), but we don't want to block during the clock interrupt. Instead, use two p_flag's in the proc struct to mark the current process as having a pending SIGVTALRM or a SIGPROF and let them be delivered during ast() when hardclock() has finished running. - Remove CLKF_BASEPRI, which was #ifdef'd out on the x86 anyways. It was broken on the x86 if it was turned on since cpl is gone. It's only use was to bogusly run softclock() directly during hardclock() rather than scheduling an SWI. - Remove the COM_LOCK simplelock and replace it with a clock_lock spin mutex. Since the spin mutex already handles disabling/restoring interrupts appropriately, this also lets us axe all the *_intr() fu. - Back out the hacks in the APIC_IO x86 cpu_initclocks() code to use temporary fast interrupts for the APIC trial. - Add two new process flags P_ALRMPEND and P_PROFPEND to mark the pending signals in hardclock() that are to be delivered in ast().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - stop using the evil 'struct trapframe' argument for mi_startup() (formerly main()). There are much better ways of doing it. - do not use prepare_usermode() - setregs() in execve() will do it all for us as long as the p_md.md_regs pointer is set. (which is now done in machdep.c rather than init_main.c. The Alpha port did it this way all along and is much cleaner). - collect all the magic %cr0 etc register settings into one place and have the AP's call that instead of using magic numbers (!!) that keep changing over and over again. - Make it safe to call kthread_create() earlier, including during the device probe sequence. It doesn't need the callback mechanism that NetBSD's version uses. - kthreads created this way are root-less as they exist before the root filesystem is mounted. init(1) is set up so that it aquires the root pointers prior to running. If other kthreads want filesystem acccess we can make this code more generic. - set all threads start times once we have decided what time it is. - init uses a trampoline rather than the evil prepare_usermode() hack. - kern_descrip.c has a couple of tweaks to deal with forking when there is no rootdir or cwd etc. - adjust the early SYSINIT() sequence so that a few prereqisites are in place. eg: make sure the run queue is initialized before doing forks. With this, the USB code can easily create a kthread to do the device tree discovery. (I have tested it, it works nicely). There are still some open issues before this is truely useful. - tsleep() does not like working before the clock is running. It sort-of tries to spin wait, but it can do more useful things now. - stopping a kthread in kld code at unload time is "interesting" but we have a solution for that. The Alpha code needs no changes for this. It already uses pretty much the same strategies, but a little cleaner.
* Commit major SMP cleanups and move the BGL (big giant lock) in thedillon2000-03-281-6/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | syscall path inward. A system call may select whether it needs the MP lock or not (the default being that it does need it). A great deal of conditional SMP code for various deadended experiments has been removed. 'cil' and 'cml' have been removed entirely, and the locking around the cpl has been removed. The conditional separately-locked fast-interrupt code has been removed, meaning that interrupts must hold the CPL now (but they pretty much had to anyway). Another reason for doing this is that the original separate-lock for interrupts just doesn't apply to the interrupt thread mechanism being contemplated. Modifications to the cpl may now ONLY occur while holding the MP lock. For example, if an otherwise MP safe syscall needs to mess with the cpl, it must hold the MP lock for the duration and must (as usual) save/restore the cpl in a nested fashion. This is precursor work for the real meat coming later: avoiding having to hold the MP lock for common syscalls and I/O's and interrupt threads. It is expected that the spl mechanisms and new interrupt threading mechanisms will be able to run in tandem, allowing a slow piecemeal transition to occur. This patch should result in a moderate performance improvement due to the considerable amount of code that has been removed from the critical path, especially the simplification of the spl*() calls. The real performance gains will come later. Approved by: jkh Reviewed by: current, bde (exception.s) Some work taken from: luoqi's patch

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | space. (!) Have each process use the kernel stack and pcb in the kvm space. Since the stacks are at a different address, we cannot copy the stack at fork() and allow the child to return up through the function call tree to return to user mode - create a new execution context and have the new process begin executing from cpu_switch() and go to user mode directly. In theory this should speed up fork a bit. Context switch the tss_esp0 pointer in the common tss. This is a lot simpler since than swithching the gdt[GPROC0_SEL].sd.sd_base pointer to each process's tss since the esp0 pointer is a 32 bit pointer, and the sd_base setting is split into three different bit sections at non-aligned boundaries and requires a lot of twiddling to reset. The 8K of memory at the top of the process space is now empty, and unmapped (and unmappable, it's higher than VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS). Simplity the pmap code to manage process contexts, we no longer have to double map the UPAGES, this simplifies and should measuably speed up fork(). The following parts came from John Dyson: Set PG_G on the UPAGES that are now in kernel context, and invalidate them when swapping them out. Move the upages object (upobj) from the vmspace to the proc structure. Now that the UPAGES (pcb and kernel stack) are out of user space, make rfork(..RFMEM..) do what was intended by sharing the vmspace entirely via reference counting rather than simply inheriting the mappings.
