Include ktr.h in more compilation units

Similar to r348026, exhaustive search for uses of CTRn() and cross reference
ktr.h includes. Where it was obvious that an OS compat header of some kind
included ktr.h indirectly, .c files were left alone. Some of these files
clearly got ktr.h via header pollution in some scenarios, or tinderbox would
not be passing prior to this revision, but go ahead and explicitly include it
in files using it anyway.

Like r348026, these CUs did not show up in tinderbox as missing the include.

Fix initialization of eventhandler mutex.

mtx_init does not do a copy of the name string it is passed. The
eventhandler code incorrectly passed the parameter string directly to
mtx_init instead of using the copy it makes. This was an existing
problem with the code that I dutifully copied over in my changes in r325621.

sys/kern: adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.


# 2ca45184 09-Nov-2017 Matt Joras <mjoras@FreeBSD.org>

Introduce EVENTHANDLER_LIST and some users.

This introduces a facility to EVENTHANDLER(9) for explicitly defining a
reference to an event handler list. This is useful since previously all
invokers of events had to do a locked traversal of the global list of
event handler lists in order to find the appropriate event handler list.
By keeping a pointer to the appropriate list an invoker can avoid this
traversal completely. The pointer is initialized with SYSINIT(9) during
the eventhandler stage. Users registering interest in events do not need
to know if the event is backed by such a list, since the list is added
to the global list of lists. As with lists that are not pre-defined it
is safe to register for the events before the list has been created.

This converts the process_* and thread_* events to using the new
facility, as these are events whose locked traversals end up showing up
significantly in ports build workflows (and presumably other workflows
with many short lived threads/procs). It may be advantageous to convert
other events to using the new facility.

The el_flags field is now unused, but leave it be so that this revision
can be MFC'd.

# fc091646 08-Oct-2017 Ian Lepore <ian@FreeBSD.org>

Restore the ability to deregister an eventhandler from within the callback.

When the EVENTHANDLER(9) subsystem was created, it was a documented feature
that an eventhandler callback function could safely deregister itself. In
r200652 that feature was inadvertantly broken by adding drain-wait logic to
eventhandler_deregister(), so that it would be safe to unload a module upon
return from deregistering its event handlers.

There are now 145 callers of EVENTHANDLER_DEREGISTER(), and it's likely many
of them are depending on the drain-wait logic that has been in place for 8
years. So instead of creating a separate eventhandler_drain() and adding it
to some or all of those 145 call sites, this creates a separate
eventhandler_drain_nowait() function for the specific purpose of
deregistering a callback from within the running callback.

Rework the eventhandler locking for hopefully the last time. The scheme
used popped into my head during my morning commute a few weeks ago, but
it is also very similar (though a bit simpler) to a patch that mini@
developed a while ago. Basically, each eventhandler list has a mutex and
a run count. During an eventhandler invocation, the mutex is held while
we traverse the list but is dropped while we execute actual handlers. Also,
a runcount counter is incremented at the start of an invocation and
decremented at the end of an invocation. Adding to the list is not a big
deal since the reference of a thread currently executing the handlers
remains valid across an add operation. Whether or not new handlers are
executed by threads currently executing the handlers for a given list is
indeterminate however. The harder case is when a handler is removed from
the list. If the runcount is zero, the handler is simply removed from the
list directly. If the runcount is not zero, then another thread is
currently executing the handlers of this list, so the priority of this
handler is set to a magic value (currently -1) to mark it as dead. Dead
handlers are not executed during an invocation. If the runcount is zero
after it is decremented at the end of an invocation, then a new
eventhandler_prune_list() function is called to remove dead handlers from
the list.

Additional minor notes:
- All the common parts of EVENTHANDLER_INVOKE() and
EVENTHANDLER_FAST_INVOKE() have been merged into a common
_EVENTHANDLER_INVOKE() macro to reduce duplication and ease maintenance.
- KTR logging for eventhandlers is now available via the KTR_EVH mask.
- The global eventhander_mutex is no longer recursive.

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.

# 08812b39 18-Jan-2001 Bosko Milekic <bmilekic@FreeBSD.org>

Implement MTX_RECURSE flag for mtx_init().
All calls to mtx_init() for mutexes that recurse must now include
the MTX_RECURSE bit in the flag argument variable. This change is in
preparation for an upcoming (further) mutex API cleanup.
The witness code will call panic() if a lock is found to recurse but
the MTX_RECURSE bit was not set during the lock's initialization.

The old MTX_RECURSE "state" bit (in mtx_lock) has been renamed to
MTX_RECURSED, which is more appropriate given its meaning.

The following locks have been made "recursive," thus far:
eventhandler, Giant, callout, sched_lock, possibly some others declared
in the architecture-specific code, all of the network card driver locks
in pci/, as well as some other locks in dev/ stuff that I've found to
be recursive.
