Dhcp only works if devices are configured with a broadcast source
address at the begining as it currently uses raw ip sockets and the
sockets sets the source address. It is a quick hack and proper hdcpd
fix is preferable
- on driver restarts, reopen devices on a per-file basis, not per-mount
- do not assume that there is just one vnode per block-special device
- update block-special files in the uncommon mounting success paths, too
- upon mount, sync but also invalidate affected buffers on the root FS
- upon unmount, check whether a vnode is in use before updating it
Take into account the ALL and ALL_SYS cases when constructing proper
symmetrical IPC send masks. Fix system.conf accordingly, to keep
userland processes from sending to several non-interface servers and
drivers. Also fix IS's F4 formatting.
From now on, the "ipc" directive in system.conf refers to process names
instead of labels, similar to the "control" directive. The old, more
fine-grained approach is deemed unnecessary and cumbersome at this time.
As side effects, this patch unbreaks late IPC permission computation as
well as the filter driver.
- regions were preivous stored in a linked list, as 'normally'
there are just 2 or 3 (text, data, stack), but that's slow
if lots of regions are made with mmap()
- measurable performance improvement with gcc and clang
- profile --nmi | --rtc sets the profiling mode
- --rtc is default, uses BIOS RTC, cannot profile kernel the presetted
frequency values apply
- --nmi is only available in APIC mode as it uses the NMI watchdog, -f
allows any frequency in Hz
- both modes use compatible data structures
- EBADCPU is returned is scheduler tries to run a process on a CPU
that either does not exist or isn't booted
- this change was originally meant to deal with stupid cpuid
instruction which provides totally useless information about
hyper-threading and MPS which does not deal with ht at all. ACPI
provides correct information. If ht is turned off it looks like some
CPUs failed to boot. Nevertheless this patch may be handy for
testing/benchmarking in the future.
- RTS_VMINHIBIT flag is used to stop process while VM is fiddling with
its pagetables
- more generic way of sending synchronous scheduling events among cpus
- do the x-cpu smp sched calls only if the target process is runnable.
If it is not, it cannot be running and it cannot become runnable
this CPU holds the BKL
