starting point.

Commit the 64-bit inode project.

Extend the ino_t, dev_t, nlink_t types to 64-bit ints. Modify
struct dirent layout to add d_off, increase the size of d_fileno
to 64-bits, increase the size of d_namlen to 16-bits, and change
the required alignment. Increase struct statfs f_mntfromname[] and
f_mntonname[] array length MNAMELEN to 1024.

ABI breakage is mitigated by providing compatibility using versioned
symbols, ingenious use of the existing padding in structures, and
by employing other tricks. Unfortunately, not everything can be
fixed, especially outside the base system. For instance, third-party
APIs which pass struct stat around are broken in backward and
forward incompatible ways.

Kinfo sysctl MIBs ABI is changed in backward-compatible way, but
there is no general mechanism to handle other sysctl MIBS which
return structures where the layout has changed. It was considered
that the breakage is either in the management interfaces, where we
usually allow ABI slip, or is not important.

Struct xvnode changed layout, no compat shims are provided.

For struct xtty, dev_t tty device member was reduced to uint32_t.
It was decided that keeping ABI compat in this case is more useful
than reporting 64-bit dev_t, for the sake of pstat.

Update note: strictly follow the instructions in UPDATING. Build
and install the new kernel with COMPAT_FREEBSD11 option enabled,
then reboot, and only then install new world.

Credits: The 64-bit inode project, also known as ino64, started life
many years ago as a project by Gleb Kurtsou (gleb). Kirk McKusick
(mckusick) then picked up and updated the patch, and acted as a

by Ed Maste (emaste), John Baldwin (jhb), Jilles Tjoelker (jilles),

Issue is that boottime* should be adjusted from tc_windup(), which
requires them to be members of the timehands structure. As a
preparation, this commit only introduces the interface.

Some uses of boottime were found doubtful, e.g. NLM uses boottime to
identify the system boot instance. Arguably the identity should not
change on the leap second adjustment, but the commit is about the
timekeeping code and the consumers were kept bug-to-bug compatible.

Remove the thread argument from the FSD (File-System Dependent) parts of

context as long as it always refers to curthread.

In some points, in particular when dealing with VOPs and functions living
in the same namespace (eg. vflush) which still need to be converted,
pass curthread explicitly in order to retain the old behaviour.
Such loose ends will be fixed ASAP.

While here fix a bug: now, UFS_EXTATTR can be compiled alone without the

Properly lock proctree_lock before locking the process while accounting.

During the import of the MPSAFE TTY layer (r181905), I changed
acct_process() to lock proctree_lock instead of SESS_LOCK, because
s_ttyp is now locked using proctree_lock. One of the things I forgot,
was to lock it before we PROC_LOCK.

Commit this patch, written by kib@. To ensure we hold proctree_lock as
short as possible, obtaining `ac_tty' has now been made the first step
of filling `acct'.

# bc093719 20-Aug-2008 Ed Schouten <ed@FreeBSD.org>

Integrate the new MPSAFE TTY layer to the FreeBSD operating system.

The last half year I've been working on a replacement TTY layer for the
FreeBSD kernel. The new TTY layer was designed to improve the following:

- Improved driver model:

The old TTY layer has a driver model that is not abstract enough to
make it friendly to use. A good example is the output path, where the
device drivers directly access the output buffers. This means that an
in-kernel PPP implementation must always convert network buffers into
TTY buffers.

If a PPP implementation would be built on top of the new TTY layer
(still needs a hooks layer, though), it would allow the PPP
implementation to directly hand the data to the TTY driver.

- Improved hotplugging:

With the old TTY layer, it isn't entirely safe to destroy TTY's from
the system. This implementation has a two-step destructing design,
where the driver first abandons the TTY. After all threads have left
the TTY, the TTY layer calls a routine in the driver, which can be
used to free resources (unit numbers, etc).

The pts(4) driver also implements this feature, which means
posix_openpt() will now return PTY's that are created on the fly.

- Improved performance:

One of the major improvements is the per-TTY mutex, which is expected
to improve scalability when compared to the old Giant locking.
Another change is the unbuffered copying to userspace, which is both
used on TTY device nodes and PTY masters.

Upgrading should be quite straightforward. Unlike previous versions,
existing kernel configuration files do not need to be changed, except
when they reference device drivers that are listed in UPDATING.

Significant refactoring of the accounting code to improve locking and VFS
happiness, as well as correct other bugs:

- Replace notion of current and saved accounting credential/vnode with a
single credential/vnode and an acct_suspended flag. This simplifies the
accounting logic substantially.

- Replace acct_mtx with acct_sx, a sleepable lock held exclusively during
reconfiguration and space polling, but shared during log entry
generation. This avoids holding a mutex over sleepable VFS operations.

- Hold the sx lock over the duration of the I/O so that the vnode I/O
cannot occur after vnode close, which could occur previously if
accounting was disabled as a process exited.

- Write the accounting log entry with Giant conditionally acquired based
on the file system where the log is stored. Previously, the accounting
code relied on the caller acquiring Giant.

- Acquire Giant conditionally in the accounting callout based on the file
system where the accounting log is stored. Run the callout MPSAFE.

- Expose acct_suspended via a read-only sysctl so it is possibly to
programmatically determine whether accounting is suspended or not without
attempting to parse logs.

- Check both acct_vp and acct_suspended lock-free before entering the
accounting sx lock in acct().

- When accounting is disabled due to a VBAD vnode (i.e., forceable unmount),
generate a log message indicating accounting has been disabled.

- Correct a long-standing bug in how free space is calculated and compared
to the required space: generate and compare signed results, not unsigned

# 78c85e8d 05-Oct-2004 John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org>

Rework how we store process times in the kernel such that we always store
the raw values including for child process statistics and only compute the
system and user timevals on demand.

- Fix the various kern_wait() syscall wrappers to only pass in a rusage
pointer if they are going to use the result.
- Add a kern_getrusage() function for the ABI syscalls to use so that they
don't have to play stackgap games to call getrusage().
- Fix the svr4_sys_times() syscall to just call calcru() to calculate the
times it needs rather than calling getrusage() twice with associated
stackgap, etc.
- Add a new rusage_ext structure to store raw time stats such as tick counts
for user, system, and interrupt time as well as a bintime of the total
runtime. A new p_rux field in struct proc replaces the same inline fields
from struct proc (i.e. p_[isu]ticks, p_[isu]u, and p_runtime). A new p_crux
field in struct proc contains the "raw" child time usage statistics.
ruadd() has been changed to handle adding the associated rusage_ext
structures as well as the values in rusage. Effectively, the values in
rusage_ext replace the ru_utime and ru_stime values in struct rusage. These
two fields in struct rusage are no longer used in the kernel.
- calcru() has been split into a static worker function calcru1() that
calculates appropriate timevals for user and system time as well as updating
the rux_[isu]u fields of a passed in rusage_ext structure. calcru() uses a
copy of the process' p_rux structure to compute the timevals after updating
the runtime appropriately if any of the threads in that process are
currently executing. It also now only locks sched_lock internally while
doing the rux_runtime fixup. calcru() now only requires the caller to
hold the proc lock and calcru1() only requires the proc lock internally.
calcru() also no longer allows callers to ask for an interrupt timeval
since none of them actually did.
- calcru() now correctly handles threads executing on other CPUs.
- A new calccru() function computes the child system and user timevals by
calling calcru1() on p_crux. Note that this means that any code that wants
child times must now call this function rather than reading from p_cru
directly. This function also requires the proc lock.
- This finishes the locking for rusage and friends so some of the Giant locks
in exit1() and kern_wait() are now gone.
- The locking in ttyinfo() has been tweaked so that a shared lock of the
proctree lock is used to protect the process group rather than the process
group lock. By holding this lock until the end of the function we now
ensure that the process/thread that we pick to dump info about will no
longer vanish while we are trying to output its info to the console.

Locking for the per-process resource limits structure.
- struct plimit includes a mutex to protect a reference count. The plimit
structure is treated similarly to struct ucred in that is is always copy
on write, so having a reference to a structure is sufficient to read from
it without needing a further lock.
- The proc lock protects the p_limit pointer and must be held while reading
limits from a process to keep the limit structure from changing out from
under you while reading from it.
- Various global limits that are ints are not protected by a lock since
int writes are atomic on all the archs we support and thus a lock
wouldn't buy us anything.
- All accesses to individual resource limits from a process are abstracted
behind a simple lim_rlimit(), lim_max(), and lim_cur() API that return
either an rlimit, or the current or max individual limit of the specified
resource from a process.
- dosetrlimit() was renamed to kern_setrlimit() to match existing style of
other similar syscall helper functions.
- The alpha OSF/1 compat layer no longer calls getrlimit() and setrlimit()
(it didn't used the stackgap when it should have) but uses lim_rlimit()
and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The svr4 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits calls,
but uses lim_rlimit() and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The ibcs2 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits. It
also no longer uses the stackgap for accessing sysctl's for the
ibcs2_sysconf() syscall but uses kernel_sysctl() instead. As a result,
ibcs2_sysconf() no longer needs Giant.
- The p_rlimit macro no longer exists.

In order to better support flexible and extensible access control,
make a series of modifications to the credential arguments relating
to file read and write operations to cliarfy which credential is
used for what:

- Change fo_read() and fo_write() to accept "active_cred" instead of
"cred", and change the semantics of consumers of fo_read() and
fo_write() to pass the active credential of the thread requesting
an operation rather than the cached file cred. The cached file
cred is still available in fo_read() and fo_write() consumers
via fp->f_cred. These changes largely in sys_generic.c.

For each implementation of fo_read() and fo_write(), update cred
usage to reflect this change and maintain current semantics:

- badfo_readwrite() unchanged
- kqueue_read/write() unchanged
pipe_read/write() now authorize MAC using active_cred rather
than td->td_ucred
- soo_read/write() unchanged
- vn_read/write() now authorize MAC using active_cred but
VOP_READ/WRITE() with fp->f_cred

Modify vn_rdwr() to accept two credential arguments instead of a
single credential: active_cred and file_cred. Use active_cred
for MAC authorization, and select a credential for use in
VOP_READ/WRITE() based on whether file_cred is NULL or not. If
file_cred is provided, authorize the VOP using that cred,
otherwise the active credential, matching current semantics.

Modify current vn_rdwr() consumers to pass a file_cred if used
in the context of a struct file, and to always pass active_cred.
When vn_rdwr() is used without a file_cred, pass NOCRED.

These changes should maintain current semantics for read/write,
but avoid a redundant passing of fp->f_cred, as well as making
it more clear what the origin of each credential is in file
descriptor read/write operations.

Follow-up commits will make similar changes to other file descriptor
operations, and modify the MAC framework to pass both credentials
to MAC policy modules so they can implement either semantic for
revocation.

o Clean up ktrcanset() to take into account changes, and move to using

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

o Remove lots of (p_pcred==NULL) checks.
o Add an XXX to authorization code in nfs_lock.c, since it's

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.

Change and clean the mutex lock interface.

mtx_enter(lock, type) becomes:

mtx_lock(lock) for sleep locks (MTX_DEF-initialized locks)
mtx_lock_spin(lock) for spin locks (MTX_SPIN-initialized)

similarily, for releasing a lock, we now have:

mtx_unlock(lock) for MTX_DEF and mtx_unlock_spin(lock) for MTX_SPIN.
We change the caller interface for the two different types of locks
because the semantics are entirely different for each case, and this
makes it explicitly clear and, at the same time, it rids us of the
extra `type' argument.

The enter->lock and exit->unlock change has been made with the idea
that we're "locking data" and not "entering locked code" in mind.

Further, remove all additional "flags" previously passed to the
lock acquire/release routines with the exception of two:

MTX_QUIET and MTX_NOSWITCH

The functionality of these flags is preserved and they can be passed
to the lock/unlock routines by calling the corresponding wrappers:

mtx_{lock, unlock}_flags(lock, flag(s)) and
mtx_{lock, unlock}_spin_flags(lock, flag(s)) for MTX_DEF and MTX_SPIN
locks, respectively.

Re-inline some lock acq/rel code; in the sleep lock case, we only
inline the _obtain_lock()s in order to ensure that the inlined code
fits into a cache line. In the spin lock case, we inline recursion and
actually only perform a function call if we need to spin. This change
has been made with the idea that we generally tend to avoid spin locks
and that also the spin locks that we do have and are heavily used
(i.e. sched_lock) do recurse, and therefore in an effort to reduce
function call overhead for some architectures (such as alpha), we
inline recursion for this case.

Create a new malloc type for the witness code and retire from using
the M_DEV type. The new type is called M_WITNESS and is only declared
if WITNESS is enabled.

Begin cleaning up some machdep/mutex.h code - specifically updated the
"optimized" inlined code in alpha/mutex.h and wrote MTX_LOCK_SPIN
and MTX_UNLOCK_SPIN asm macros for the i386/mutex.h as we presently
need those.

Finally, caught up to the interface changes in all sys code.

in which a process tries to open a file with a non-blocking exclusive

file even though its open failed. With this change, the truncation

struct callout_handle timeout(void (*func)(void *),
void *arg, int ticks);

void untimeout(void (*func)(void *), void *arg,
struct callout_handle handle);

If a client wishes to remove a timeout, it must store the
callout_handle returned by timeout and pass it to untimeout.

The new implementation gives 0(1) insert and removal of callouts
making this interface scale well even for applications that
keep 100s of callouts outstanding.

See the updated timeout.9 man page for more details.

Removed unused #includes.


# fce002fd 24-Mar-1997 Bruce Evans <bde@FreeBSD.org>

Don't include <sys/ioctl.h> in the kernel. Stage 1: don't include
it when it is not used. In most cases, the reasons for including it
went away when the special ioctl headers became self-sufficient.


# 3ac4d1ef 22-Mar-1997 Bruce Evans <bde@FreeBSD.org>

Don't #include <sys/fcntl.h> in <sys/file.h> if KERNEL is defined.
Fixed everything that depended on getting fcntl.h stuff from the wrong
place. Most things don't depend on file.h stuff at all.


# 6875d254 22-Feb-1997 Peter Wemm <peter@FreeBSD.org>

Back out part 1 of the MCFH that changed $Id$ to $FreeBSD$. We are not
ready for it yet.


# 996c772f 09-Feb-1997 John Dyson <dyson@FreeBSD.org>

This is the kernel Lite/2 commit. There are some requisite userland
changes, so don't expect to be able to run the kernel as-is (very well)
without the appropriate Lite/2 userland changes.

The system boots and can mount UFS filesystems.

Untested: ext2fs, msdosfs, NFS
Known problems: Incorrect Berkeley ID strings in some files.
Mount_std mounts will not work until the getfsent
library routine is changed.

Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.


# edbfedac 11-Mar-1996 Peter Wemm <peter@FreeBSD.org>

Import 4.4BSD-Lite2 onto the vendor branch, note that in the kernel, all
files are off the vendor branch, so this should not change anything.

A "U" marker generally means that the file was not changed in between
the 4.4Lite and Lite-2 releases, and does not need a merge. "C" generally
means that there was a change.
[note new unused (in this form) syscalls.conf, to be 'cvs rm'ed]


# 87b6de2b 14-Dec-1995 Poul-Henning Kamp <phk@FreeBSD.org>

A Major staticize sweep. Generates a couple of warnings that I'll deal
with later.
A number of unused vars removed.
A number of unused procs removed or #ifdefed.


# d2d3e875 11-Nov-1995 Bruce Evans <bde@FreeBSD.org>

Included <sys/sysproto.h> to get central declarations for syscall args
structs and prototypes for syscalls.

Ifdefed duplicated decentralized declarations of args structs. It's
convenient to have this visible but they are hard to maintain. Some
are already different from the central declarations. 4.4lite2 puts
them in comments in the function headers but I wanted to avoid the
large changes for that.


# a98ca469 29-Oct-1995 Poul-Henning Kamp <phk@FreeBSD.org>

Second batch of cleanup changes.
This time mostly making a lot of things static and some unused
variables here and there.


# 57585a8e 23-Jul-1995 Mike Pritchard <mpp@FreeBSD.org>

Use the same method to determine the time that the process
ended that fork() uses to determine the time that the process
started when calculating the elapsed time. This prevents the
ac_etime field in the accounting record from getting set to -1
if the process exists for a VERY short period of time.


# 797f2d22 02-Oct-1994 Poul-Henning Kamp <phk@FreeBSD.org>

All of this is cosmetic. prototypes, #includes, printfs and so on. Makes
GCC a lot more silent.
