Matthew Dillon [Sat, 27 May 2006 01:51:27 +0000 (01:51 +0000)]
Implement msleep().  This function is similar to the FreeBSD msleep() except
it interlocks with a spinlock instead of a mutex.  The spinlock must be
exclusively held on entry.  msleep() will atomically sleep and release the
spinlock, then reacquire the spinlock when it wakes up.

A novel approach to the interlock is used.  DragonFly's tsleep/wakeup
mechanism is a per-cpu mechanism, with a local array of cpu masks, one
entry per hash index.  A wakeup simpy sends an IPI message to each target
cpu whos bitmap bit is set in the ident's hash entry.

This allows us to interlock simply by entering a critical section and
setting our bit, then releasing the mutex, then tsleep()ing as per normal.
No additional locks are required.  The critical section will delay any wakeup
race with us simply by delaying the IPI message that is potentially
in-transit to our cpu.

file descriptor number to be reserved without having to assign a file
pointer to it.  This allows code such as open(), dup(), etc to reserve
descriptors to work with without having to worry about the related file
being ripped out from under them by another thread sharing the descriptor
table.

falloc() - This function allocates the file pointer and descriptor as
before, but does NOT associate the file pointer with the
descriptor.

Before this change another thread could access the file
pointer while the system call creating it was blocked,
before the system call had a chance to completely initialize
the file pointer.

The caller must call fsetfd() to assign or clear the
reserved descriptor.

fsetfd() - Is now responsible for associating a file pointer with a
previously reserved descriptor or clearing the reservation.

fdealloc() - This hack existed to deal with open/dup races against other
threads.  The above changes remove the possibility so this
routine has been deleted.

dup code - kern_dup() and dupfdopen() have been completely rewritten.
They are much cleaner and less obtuse now.  Additional race
conditions in the original code were also found and fixed.

funsetfd() - Now returns the file pointer that was cleared and takes
responsibility for adjusting fd_lastfile.

NOTE: fd_lastfile is inclusive of any reserved descriptors.

fdcopy() - While not yet MPSAFE, fdcopy now properly handles races
against other threads.

fdp->fd_lastfile -
This field was not being properly updated in certain failure
cases.  This commit fixes that.  Also, if all a process's
descriptors were closed this field was incorrectly left at
0 when it should have been set to -1.

fdp->fd_files - A number of code blocks were trying to optimize a for()
loop over all file descriptors by caching a pointer to

reallocated if code within the loop blocks.  These loops

  thread to preempt the current thread if it is holding a spinlock.  This
  cuts spinlock overhead in half.

* Implement shared spinlocks in addition to exclusive spinlocks.  Shared
  spinlocks would be used, e.g. for file descriptor table lookups.

* Cache a shared spinlock by using the spinlock's lock field as a bitfield,
  one for each cpu (bit 31 for exclusive locks).  A shared spinlock sets
  its cpu's shared bit and does not bother clearing it on unlock.

  This means that multiple, parallel shared spinlock accessors do NOT incur
  a cache conflict on the spinlock.  ALL parallel shared accessors operate
  at full speed (~10ns vs ~40-100ns in overhead).  90% of the 10ns in
  overhead is due to a necessary MFENCE to interlock against exclusive
  spinlocks on the mutex.  However, this MFENCE only has to play with
  pending cpu-local memory writes so it will always run at near full speed.

* Exclusive spinlocks in the face of previously cached shared spinlocks
  are now slightly more expensive because they have to clear the cached
  shared spinlock bits by checking the globaldata structure for each
  conflicting cpu to see if it is still holding a shared spinlock.  However,
  only the initial (unavoidable) atomic swap involves potential cache

  the shared bits then get cleared.

17 years ago- Add ciphy for PHY modules produced by Cicada Semiconductor

- Add ciphy for PHY modules produced by Cicada Semiconductor
- Add vge(4) for VIA VT612x GigE, which may have ciphy as its PHY module
- Add vge(4) into GENERIC and LINT
- Add man page for vge(4)

Thank Bill Paul for his work on this driver.
Thank Sascha Wildner for preparing the man page.

NOTE:
Although polling(4) is claimed to be supported by this driver, but it does not
work that well with vge(4) (extremely slow, ~7000ms for ping, as reported by
herrgard).

Embed the netmsg in the mbuf itself rather than allocating one for
each received packet.  This greatly reduces the overhead in the
network receive path (removing a malloc() and free()).
