8214e5e284 Removed racy COW optimization
- enabling writing in COW once phys block is reference only once is racy if VM
  is preemptible. original memory location may get overwritten before COW copies
  the memory

- problem when DEBUG_RACE is on and a big problem for SMP

6bbcab3ec4 Clean up MFS a bit:
- Remove unused includes.
 - Add include guards to headers.
 - Use unsigned variables in case they're never going to hold a negative
   value. This causes GCC's complaints to disappear and should make flexelint
   a lot happier, too.
 - Make functions private when they're used only within a module.
 - Remove unused variables.
 - Add casts where appropriate.

a8111c5027 Various small scheduling related fixes 2010-05-26 07:16:39 +00:00

451a6890d6 scheduling - time quantum in miliseconds
- Currently the cpu time quantum is timer-ticks based. Thus the
  remaining quantum is decreased only if the processes is interrupted
  by a timer tick. As processes block a lot this typically does not
  happen for normal user processes. Also the quantum depends on the
  frequency of the timer.

- This change makes the quantum miliseconds based. Internally the
  miliseconds are translated into cpu cycles. Everytime userspace
  execution is interrupted by kernel the cycles just consumed by the
  current process are deducted from the remaining quantum.

- It makes the quantum system timer frequency independent.

- The boot processes quantum is loosely derived from the tick-based
  quantas and 60Hz timer and subject to future change

- the 64bit arithmetics is a little ugly, will be changes once we have
  compiler support for 64bit integers (soon)

bcdaf033b5 pm - fix sched interaction
For coredumping processes, PM forgets to inform SCHED that the

b09bcf6779 Scheduling server (by Bjorn Swift)
In this second phase, scheduling is moved from PM to its own
scheduler (see r6557 for phase one). In the next phase we hope to a)
include useful information in the "out of quantum" message and b)
create some simple scheduling policy that makes use of that
information.

When the system starts up, PM will iterate over its process table and
ask SCHED to take over scheduling unprivileged processes. This is
done by sending a SCHEDULING_START message to SCHED. This message
includes the processes endpoint, the parent's endpoint and its nice
level. The scheduler adds this process to its schedproc table, issues
a schedctl, and returns its own endpoint to PM - as the endpoint of
the effective scheduler. When a process terminates, a SCHEDULING_STOP
message is sent to the scheduler.

The reason for this effective endpoint is for future compatibility.
Some day, we may have a scheduler that, instead of scheduling the
process itself, forwards the SCHEDULING_START message on to another
scheduler.

PM has information on who schedules whom. As such, scheduling
messages from user-land are sent through PM. An example is when
processes change their priority, using nice(). In that case, a
getsetpriority message is sent to PM, which then sends a
SCHEDULING_SET_NICE to the process's effective scheduler.

When a process is forked through PM, it inherits its parent's
scheduler, but is spawned with an empty quantum. As before, a request
to fork a process flows through VM before returning to PM, which then
wakes up the child process. This flow has been modified slightly so
that PM notifies the scheduler of the new process, before waking up
the child process. If the scheduler fails to take over scheduling,
the child process is torn down and the fork fails with an erroneous
value.

Process priority is entirely decided upon using nice levels. PM
stores a copy of each process's nice level and when a child is
forked, its parent's nice level is sent in the SCHEDULING_START
message. How this level is mapped to a priority queue is up to the
scheduler. It should be noted that the nice level is used to
determine the max_priority and the parent could have been in a lower
priority when it was spawned. To prevent a CPU intensive process from
hawking the CPU by continuously forking children that get scheduled
in the max_priority, the scheduler should determine in which queue
the parent is currently scheduled, and schedule the child in that
same queue.

Other fixes: The USER_Q in kernel/proc.h was incorrectly defined as
NR_SCHED_QUEUES/2. That results in a "off by one" error when
converting priority->nice->priority for nice=0. This also had the
side effect that if someone were to set the MAX_USER_Q to something
else than 0, then USER_Q would be off.

9ba65d2ea8 This patch switches the MINIX3 ethernet driver stack from a port-based
model to an instance-based model. Each ethernet driver instance is now
responsible for exactly one network interface card. The port field in
/etc/inet.conf now acts as an instance field instead.

This patch also updates the data link protocol. This update:
- eliminates the concept of ports entirely;
- eliminates DL_GETNAME entirely;
- standardizes on using m_source for IPC and DL_ENDPT for safecopies;
- removes error codes from TASK/STAT replies, as they were unused;
- removes a number of other old or unused fields;
- names and renames a few other fields.

All ethernet drivers have been changed to:
- conform to the new protocol, and exactly that;
- take on an instance number based on a given "instance" argument;
- skip that number of PCI devices in probe iterations;
- use config tables and environment variables based on that number;
- no longer be limited to a predefined maximum of cards in any way;
- get rid of any leftover non-safecopy support and other ancient junk;
- have a correct banner protocol figure, or none at all.

Other changes:
* Inet.conf is now taken to be line-based, and supports #-comments.
  No existing installations are expected to be affected by this.
* A new, select-based asynchio library replaces the old one.
  Kindly contributed by Kees J. Bot.
* Inet now supports use of select() on IP devices.
  Combined, the last two changes together speed up dhcpd
  considerably in the presence of multiple interfaces.
* A small bug has been fixed in nonamed.
