Be sure to shift (long)1 << 33 and higher, not (int)1. Otherwise bad
things happen(TM). This is why beast.freebsd.org paniced with ULE.

kses from the run queues. Also, on SMP, we track the transferable
count here. Threads are transferable only as long as they are on the
run queue.
- Previously, we adjusted our load balancing based on the transferable count
minus the number of actual cpus. This was done to account for the threads
which were likely to be running. All of this logic is simpler now that
transferable accounts for only those threads which can actually be taken.
Updated various places in sched_add() and kseq_balance() to account for
this.
- Rename kseq_{add,rem} to kseq_load_{add,rem} to reflect what they're
really doing. The load is accounted for seperately from the runq because
the load is accounted for even as the thread is running.
- Fix a bug in sched_class() where we weren't properly using the PRI_BASE()
version of the kg_pri_class.
- Add a large comment that describes the impact of a seemingly simple
conditional in sched_add().
- Also in sched_add() check the transferable count and KSE_CAN_MIGRATE()
prior to checking kseq_idle. This reduces the frequency of access for
kseq_idle which is a shared resource.

idle. They figure out that we're idle fast enough that the cache pollution
introduces by scanning their run queue is more expensive than waiting
a little longer.
- Add kseq_setidle() to mark us as being idle. Use this in place of
kseq_find().
- Remove kseq_load_highest(), kseq_find() was the only consumer of this
interface. kseq_balance() has it's own customized version that finds the
lowest and highest loads simultaneously.

we're an interrupt handler. Eventually this will also be used to support

0 and SCHED_SLP_RUN_MAX * 2. This allows us to simplify the algorithm
quite a bit. Before, it dealt with arbitrary values which required us
to do nasty integer division tricks that didn't quite work out correctly.
- Chnage sched_wakeup() to detect conditions where the slp+runtime could
exceed SCHED_SLP_RUN_MAX * 2. This can happen if we go to sleep for
longer than 6 seconds. In this case, we'll just clear the runtime and
set the sleep time to the max.
- Define a new function, sched_interact_fork() which updates the slp+runtime
of a newly forked thread. We want to limit the amount of history retained
from the parent so that we learn the child's behavior quickly. We don't,
however want to decay it to nothing. Previously, we would simply divide
each parameter by 100 whenever we forked. After a few forks the values
would reach 0 and tasks would not be considered interactive.
- Add another KTR entry, cleanup some existing entries.
- Remove a useless sched_interact_update() from sched_priority(). This is
already done by the callers that require it.

- Add an IPI based mechanism for migrating kses. This mechanism is
broken down into several components. This is intended to reduce cache
thrashing by eliminating most cases where one cpu touches another's
run queues.
- kseq_notify() appends a kse to a lockless singly linked list and
conditionally sends an IPI to the target processor. Right now this is
protected by sched_lock but at some point I'd like to get rid of the
global lock. This is why I used something more complicated than a
standard queue.
- kseq_assign() processes our list of kses that have been assigned to us
by other processors. This simply calls sched_add() for each item on the
list after clearing the new KEF_ASSIGNED flag. This flag is used to
indicate that we have been appeneded to the assigned queue but not
added to the run queue yet.
- In sched_add(), instead of adding a KSE to another processor's queue we
use kse_notify() so that we don't touch their queue. Also in sched_add(),
if KEF_ASSIGNED is already set return immediately. This can happen if
a thread is removed and readded so that the priority is recorded properly.
- In sched_rem() return immediately if KEF_ASSIGNED is set. All callers
immediately readd simply to adjust priorites etc.
- In sched_choose(), if we're running an IDLE task or the per cpu idle thread
set our cpumask bit in 'kseq_idle' so that other processors may know that
we are idle. Before this, make a single pass through the run queues of
other processors so that we may find work more immediately if it is
available.
- In sched_runnable(), don't scan each processor's run queue, they will IPI
us if they have work for us to do.
- In sched_add(), if we're adding a thread that can be migrated and we have
plenty of work to do, try to migrate the thread to an idle kseq.
- Simplify the logic in sched_prio() and take the KEF_ASSIGNED flag into
consideration.
- No longer use kseq_choose() to steal threads, it can lose it's last
argument.
- Create a new function runq_steal() which operates like runq_choose() but
skips threads based on some criteria. Currently it will not steal
PRI_ITHD threads. In the future this will be used for CPU binding.
- Create a kseq_steal() that checks each run queue with runq_steal(), use
kseq_steal() in the places where we used kseq_choose() to steal with
before.

begin with sched_lock held but not recursed, so this variable was
always 0.
Removed fixup of sched_lock.mtx_recurse after context switches in
sched_switch(). Context switches always end with this variable in the
same state that it began in, so there is no need to fix it up. Only
sched_lock.mtx_lock really needs a fixup.
Replaced fixup of sched_lock.mtx_recurse in fork_exit() by an assertion
that sched_lock is owned and not recursed after it is fixed up. This
assertion much match the one in mi_switch(), and if sched_lock were
recursed then a non-null fixup of sched_lock.mtx_recurse would probably
be needed again, unlike in sched_switch(), since fork_exit() doesn't
return to its caller in the normal way.

- In sched_prio(), adjust the run queue for threads which may need to move
to the current queue due to priority propagation .
- In sched_switch(), fix style bug introduced when the KSE support went in.
Columns are 80 chars wide, not 90.
- In sched_switch(), Fix the comparison in the idle case and explicitly
re-initialize the runq in the not propagated case.
- Remove dead code in sched_clock().
- In sched_clock(), If we're an IDLE class td set NEEDRESCHED so that threads
that have become runnable will get a chance to.
- In sched_runnable(), if we're not the IDLETD, we should not consider
curthread when examining the load. This mimics the 4BSD behavior of
returning 0 when the only runnable thread is running.
- In sched_userret(), remove the code for setting NEEDRESCHED entirely.
This is not necessary and is not implemented in 4BSD.
- Use the correct comparison in sched_add() when checking to see if an idle
prio task has had it's priority temporarily elevated.

rounding errors. This was the source of the majority of the
interactivity problems. Reintroduce the old algorithm and its XXX.
- Up the interactivity threshold to 30. It really could stand to be even
a tiny bit higher.
- Let the sleep and run time accumulate up to 5 seconds of history rather
than two. This helps stop XFree86 from becoming non-interactive during
bursts of activity.

elevated either due to priority propagation or because we're in the
kernel in either case, put us on the current queue so that we dont
stop others from using important resources. At some point the priority
elevations from sleeping in the kernel should go away.
- Remove an optimization in sched_userret(). Before we would only set
NEEDRESCHED if there was something of a higher priority available. This
is a trivial optimization and it breaks priority propagation because it
doesn't take threads which we may be blocking into account. Notice that
the thread which is blocking others gets up to one tick of cpu time before
we honor this NEEDRESCHED in sched_clock().

you on the current queue. In the future, it would be nice if priority
propagation could deterministicly pluck a thread off of the next queue
and put it on the current queue. Until then this hack stops us from
holding up our entire current queue, including interrupt handlers, while
a thread on the next queue is blocked while holding Giant.

because the run time exceeds the largest value a signed int can hold.
The real solution involves calculating how far we are over the limit.
To quickly solve this problem we loop removing 1/5th of the current value

and run time.
- Scale the sleep and run time back via sched_interact_update() in more
places. This is to keep the statistic more accurate.
- Charge a parent one tick for forking a child.
- Add only the run time and not the sleep time to the parents kg when a
thread exits. This allows us to give a penalty for having an expensive
thread exit but does not give a bonus for having an interactive thread
exit.
- Change the SLP_RUN_THROTTLE to limit us to 4/5th and not 1/2.
- Change the SLP_RUN_MAX to two seconds. This keeps bursty interactive
applications like mozilla and openoffice in the interactive range even
through expensive tasks.
- Recalculate the slice after every sleep. This ensures that once a task
has been marked interactive it only has a slice of 1 at the risk of
giving tasks that sleep for a very brief period a longer time slice.

which meant no process would run for longer than 20ms.
- Slightly redo the interactivity scorer. It follows the same algorithm but
in a slightly more correct way. Previously values above half were
incorrect.
- Lower the interactivity threshold to 20. It seems that in testing non-
interactive tasks are hardly ever near there and expensive interactive
tasks can sometimes surpass it. This area needs more testing.
- Remove an unnecessary KTR.
- Fix a case where an idle thread that had an elevated priority due to
priority prop. would be placed back on the idle queue.
- Delay setting NEEDRESCHED until userret() for threads that haad their
priority elevated while in kernel. This gives us the same context switch
optimization as SCHED_4BSD.
- Limit the child's slice to 1 in sched_fork_kse() so we detect its behavior
more quickly.
- Inhert some of the run/slp time from the child in sched_exit_ksegrp().
- Redo some of the priority comparisons so they are more clear.
