(but only allow one thread per process at this time). This is functionally equivalent to teh previousl -current except that there is a thread associated with each process. Sorry john!

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)
* o Replace calls to p_can(..., P_CAN_xxx) with calls to p_canxxx().rwatson2001-07-051-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The p_can(...) construct was a premature (and, it turns out, awkward) abstraction. The individual calls to p_canxxx() better reflect differences between the inter-process authorization checks, such as differing checks based on the type of signal. This has a side effect of improving code readability. o Replace direct credential authorization checks in ktrace() with invocation of p_candebug(), while maintaining the special case check of KTR_ROOT. This allows ktrace() to "play more nicely" with new mandatory access control schemes, as well as making its authorization checks consistent with other "debugging class" checks. o Eliminate "privused" construct for p_can*() calls which allowed the caller to determine if privilege was required for successful evaluation of the access control check. This primitive is currently unused, and as such, serves only to complicate the API. Approved by: ({procfs,linprocfs} changes) des Obtained from: TrustedBSD Project

There are also races in sys_process.c, all inter-process authorization, fork, exec, and exit. o Remove sigio->sio_ruid since sigio->sio_ucred now contains the ruid; remove comments indicating that the old arrangement was a problem. o Restructure exec1() a little to use newcred/oldcred arrangement, and use improved uid management primitives. o Clean up exit1() so as to do less work in credential cleanup due to pcred removal. o Clean up fork1() so as to do less work in credential cleanup and allocation. o Clean up ktrcanset() to take into account changes, and move to using suser_xxx() instead of performing a direct uid==0 comparision. o Improve commenting in various kern_prot.c credential modification calls to better document current behavior. In a couple of places, current behavior is a little questionable and we need to check POSIX.1 to make sure it's "right". More commenting work still remains to be done. o Update credential management calls, such as crfree(), to take into account new ruidinfo reference. o Modify or add the following uid and gid helper routines: change_euid() change_egid() change_ruid() change_rgid() change_svuid() change_svgid() In each case, the call now acts on a credential not a process, and as such no longer requires more complicated process locking/etc. They now assume the caller will do any necessary allocation of an exclusive credential reference. Each is commented to document its reference requirements. o CANSIGIO() is simplified to require only credentials, not processes and pcreds. o Remove lots of (p_pcred==NULL) checks. o Add an XXX to authorization code in nfs_lock.c, since it's questionable, and needs to be considered carefully. o Simplify posix4 authorization code to require only credentials, not processes and pcreds. Note that this authorization, as well as CANSIGIO(), needs to be updated to use the p_cansignal() and p_cansched() centralized authorization routines, as they currently do not take into account some desirable restrictions that are handled by the centralized routines, as well as being inconsistent with other similar authorization instances. o Update libkvm to take these changes into account.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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

* Implement a unified run queue and adjust priority levels accordingly.jake2001-02-121-5/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - All processes go into the same array of queues, with different scheduling classes using different portions of the array. This allows user processes to have their priorities propogated up into interrupt thread range if need be. - I chose 64 run queues as an arbitrary number that is greater than 32. We used to have 4 separate arrays of 32 queues each, so this may not be optimal. The new run queue code was written with this in mind; changing the number of run queues only requires changing constants in runq.h and adjusting the priority levels. - The new run queue code takes the run queue as a parameter. This is intended to be used to create per-cpu run queues. Implement wrappers for compatibility with the old interface which pass in the global run queue structure. - Group the priority level, user priority, native priority (before propogation) and the scheduling class into a struct priority. - Change any hard coded priority levels that I found to use symbolic constants (TTIPRI and TTOPRI). - Remove the curpriority global variable and use that of curproc. This was used to detect when a process' priority had lowered and it should yield. We now effectively yield on every interrupt. - Activate propogate_priority(). It should now have the desired effect without needing to also propogate the scheduling class. - Temporarily comment out the call to vm_page_zero_idle() in the idle loop. It interfered with propogate_priority() because the idle process needed to do a non-blocking acquire of Giant and then other processes would try to propogate their priority onto it. The idle process should not do anything except idle. vm_page_zero_idle() will return in the form of an idle priority kernel thread which is woken up at apprioriate times by the vm system. - Update struct kinfo_proc to the new priority interface. Deliberately change its size by adjusting the spare fields. It remained the same size, but the layout has changed, so userland processes that use it would parse the data incorrectly. The size constraint should really be changed to an arbitrary version number. Also add a debug.sizeof sysctl node for struct kinfo_proc.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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
