d27f8afc45 iso9660fs: initialize buffer cache 2012-11-16 11:09:03 +00:00

dedb53fb10 ipc.h - IPC defined as functions again
- CHOOSETRAP define makes impossible to use some common words
  like send, receive and notify in any other context, for
  instance as members or structures

- any reasonable compiler inlines the static inline functions so
  no extra function call overhead is introduced by this change

- this gets us back to the situation before the SYSCALL/SYSENTER
  change. It is not perfect, but it used to work and still does.

9152e1c5a7 Upgrading build system to new NetBSD revision
The tested targets are the followgin ones:
 * tools
 * distribution
 * sets
 * release

The remaining NetBSD targets have not been disabled nor tested
*at all*. Try them at your own risk, they may reboot the earth.

For all compliant Makefiles, objects and generated files are put in
MAKEOBJDIR, which means you can now keep objects between two branch
switching. Same for DESTDIR, please refer to build.sh options.

Regarding new or modifications of Makefiles a few things:
 * Read share/mk/bsd.README
 * If you add a subdirectory, add a Makefile in it, and have it called
   by the parent through the SUBDIR variable.
 * Do not add arbitrary inclusion which crosses to another branch of
   the hierarchy; If you can't do without it, put a comment on why.
   If possible, do not use inclusion at all.
 * Use as much as possible the infrastructure, it is here to make
   life easier, do not fight it.

Sets and package are now used to track files.
We have one set called "minix", composed of one package called "minix-sys"

7dd286e6b8 VFS: do not save device node for new regular files
The VFS/FS protocol does not require the file server to supply a
special device node number in response to a REQ_CREATE request, as
this call creates only regular files. Therefore, VFS should not
erroneously save this piece of information from the REQ_CREATE reply
either.

ed23a7a7d2 VFS: fix reboot panic with mounted FUSE FS
Upon reboot VFS semi-exits all processes and unmounts the file system.
However, upon unmount, exiting FUSE file systems might need service from
the file system (due to libc). As the FUSE process is halfway the exit
procedure, it doesn't have a valid root directory and working directory.
Trying to do system calls then triggers a sanity check in VFS.

This fix first exits normal processes which should then allow for
unmounting FUSE file systems. Then VFS exits all processes including
File Servers and unmounts the rest of the file system.

badec36b33 VFS: fix deadlock when out of worker threads
There is a deadlock vulnerability when there are no worker threads
available and all of them blocked on a worker thread that's waiting for a
reply from a driver or a reply from an FS that needs to make a back call. In
these cases the deadlock resolver thread should kick in, but didn't in all
cases. Moreover, POSIX calls from File Servers weren't handled properly
anymore, which also could lead to deadlocks.

bd3cde4571 Move primary cache code to libminixfs.
Add primary cache management feature to libminixfs as mfs and ext2
currently do separately, remove cache code from mfs and ext2, and make
them use the libminixfs interface. This makes all fields of the buf
struct private to libminixfs and FS clients aren't supposed to access
them at all. Only the opaque 'void *data' field (the FS block contents,
used to be called bp) is to be accessed by the FS client.

The main purpose is to implement the interface to the 2ndary vm cache
just once, get rid of some code duplication, and add a little
abstraction to reduce the code inertia of the whole caching business.

Some minor sanity checking and prohibition done by mfs in this code
as removed from the generic primary cache code as a result:
        - checking all inodes are not in use when allocating/resizing
          the cache
        - checking readonly filesystems aren't written to
        - checking the superblock isn't written to on mounted filesystems

The minixfslib code relies on fs_blockstats() in the client filesystem to
return some FS usage information.

d343041caa VM: make mapping types explicit
Introduce explicit abstractions for different mapping types,
handling the instantiation, forking, pagefaults and freeing of
anonymous memory, direct physical mappings, shared memory and
physically contiguous anonymous memory as separate types, making
region.c more generic.

Also some other genericification like merging the 3 munmap cases
into one.

COW and SMAP safemap code is still implicit in region.c.

2d72cbec41 SYSENTER/SYSCALL support
. add cpufeature detection of both
	. use it for both ipc and kernelcall traps, using a register
	  for call number
	. SYSENTER/SYSCALL does not save any context, therefore userland
	  has to save it
	. to accomodate multiple kernel entry/exit types, the entry
	  type is recorded in the process struct. hitherto all types
	  were interrupt (soft int, exception, hard int); now SYSENTER/SYSCALL
	  is new, with the difference that context is not fully restored
	  from proc struct when running the process again. this can't be
	  done as some information is missing.
	. complication: cases in which the kernel has to fully change
	  process context (i.e. sigreturn). in that case the exit type
	  is changed from SYSENTER/SYSEXIT to soft-int (i.e. iret) and
	  context is fully restored from the proc struct. this does mean
	  the PC and SP must change, as the sysenter/sysexit userland code
	  will otherwise try to restore its own context. this is true in the
	  sigreturn case.
	. override all usage by setting libc_ipc=1

25817b0854 vm: change NO_MEM to a more impossible value
fixes an assert() firing when starting X. thanks to the report by pikpik.

	. NO_MEM was 0, which is actually an existing piece
	  of physical memory. it can't be allocated because it's reserved
	  for bios data (by the kernel), but it can be mapped in (e.g.
	  by X), causing sanity check disaster.
	. NONCONTIGUOUS is also obsolete as all allocations are single-page
	  now, i.e. NONCONTIGUOUS is really the default and only mode.

992799b91f VFS: make all IPC asynchronous
By decoupling synchronous drivers from VFS, we are a big step closer to
supporting driver crashes under all circumstances. That is, VFS can't
become stuck on IPC with a synchronous driver (e.g., INET) and can
recover from crashing block drivers during open/close/ioctl or during
communication with an FS.

In order to maintain serialized communication with a synchronous driver,
the communication is wrapped by a mutex on a per driver basis (not major
numbers as there can be multiple majors with identical endpoints). Majors
that share a driver endpoint point to a single mutex object.

In order to support crashes from block drivers, the file reopen tactic
had to be changed; first reopen files associated with the crashed
driver, then send the new driver endpoint to FSes. This solves a
deadlock between the FS and the block driver;
  - VFS would send REQ_NEW_DRIVER to an FS, but he FS only receives it
    after retrying the current request to the newly started driver.
  - The block driver would refuse the retried request until all files
    had been reopened.
  - VFS would reopen files only after getting a reply from the initial
    REQ_NEW_DRIVER.

When a character special driver crashes, all associated files have to
be marked invalid and closed (or reopened if flagged as such). However,
they can only be closed if a thread holds exclusive access to it. To
obtain exclusive access, the worker thread (which handles the new driver
endpoint event from DS) schedules a new job to garbage collect invalid
files. This way, we can signal the worker thread that was talking to the
crashed driver and will release exclusive access to a file associated
with the crashed driver and prevent the garbage collecting worker thread
from dead locking on that file.

Also, when a character special driver crashes, RS will unmap the driver
and remap it upon restart. During unmapping, associated files are marked
invalid instead of waiting for an endpoint up event from DS, as that
event might come later than new read/write/select requests and thus
cause confusion in the freshly started driver.

When locking a filp, the usage counters are no longer checked. The usage
counter can legally go down to zero during filp invalidation while there
are locks pending.

DS events are handled by a separate worker thread instead of the main
thread as reopening files could lead to another crash and a stuck thread.
An additional worker thread is then necessary to unlock it.

Finally, with everything asynchronous a race condition in do_select
surfaced. A select entry was only marked in use after succesfully sending
initial select requests to drivers and having to wait. When multiple
select() calls were handled there was opportunity that these entries
were overwritten. This had as effect that some select results were
ignored (and select() remained blocking instead if returning) or do_select
tried to access filps that were not present (because thrown away by
secondary select()). This bug manifested itself with sendrecs, but was
very hard to reproduce. However, it became awfully easy to trigger with
asynsends only.

373cb6526c IPC server: do not loop to find syscall handler
Instead of using a loop to find a matching ipc (inter process
communication) system call type, the offset in the call table can be
simply calculated in constant time.

Also, when the interprocess communication server receives an ipc
system call from a process, ipc should tell VM to watch the process
only once. This patch fixes that also.

(Patch and commit message slightly edited by committer.)
