2015-08-14libports: clarify why we emulate protected payloadsJustus Winter
The Hurd uses protected payloads to improve the receiver lookup on the server side to the point that we no longer do a hash table lookup in the dispatch code. If the kernel does not support protected payloads, we degrade gracefully, do one lookup in libports' dispatching code, and emulate the protected payload feature to still save one hash table lookup in the intrans function. * libports/manage-multithread.c (ports_manage_port_operations_multithread): Add comment. * libports/manage-one-thread.c (ports_manage_port_operations_one_thread): Likewise.
2015-04-07libports: use protected payloads to optimize the object lookupJustus Winter
* NEWS: Mention protected payloads. * libports/Makefile (SRCS): Add `port-deref-deferred.c'. * libports/create-internal.c (_ports_create_port_internal): Set the protected payload to the objects address. * libports/import-port.c (ports_import_port): Likewise. * libports/reallocate-from-external.c (ports_reallocate_from_external): Likewise. * libports/reallocate-port.c (ports_reallocate_port): Likewise. * libports/transfer-right.c (ports_transfer_right): Likewise. * libports/manage-multithread.c (ports_manage_port_operations_multithread): Use the protected payload for the object lookup if provided. Add thread pool management calls. * libports/manage-one-thread.c (ports_manage_port_operations_one_thread): Likewise. * libports/destroy-right.c (ports_destroy_right): Defer the dereferencing of outstanding send rights to avoid a port_info use-after-free. * libports/port-deref-deferred.c: New file. * libports/port-deref-deferred.h: Likewise. * libports/ports.h (struct port_bucket): New field `threadpool'. (ports_lookup_payload): Check `port_right'.
2015-02-17libports: avoid acquiring global lock in message dispatchJustus Winter
* libports/interrupt-operation.c (ports_S_interrupt_operation): Update `cancel_threshold' using atomic operations. * libports/manage-multithread.c (internal_demuxer): Avoid taking the lock. * libports/ports.h (struct port_info): Mention that one needs atomic operations to access `cancel_threshold'.
2015-01-17libports: silence pointless error messageJustus Winter
* libports/manage-multithread.c (adjust_priority): Silence pointless error message.
2014-02-22libports: work around bugs in server terminationRichard Braun
Most servers use ports_manage_port_operations_multithread to process requests and terminate when it returns. Since many of them don't detach before shutting down, a client may receive an error if its request arrived while the server is shutting down. Prevent those spurious errors by forcing ports_manage_port_operations_multithread not to return. * libports/manage-multithread.c (ports_manage_port_operations_multithread): Force global_timeout to 0.
2013-12-28libports: remove the threadvars stack size hackRichard Braun
Setting the stack size should now correctly be supported by libpthread. * libports/manage-multithread.c (__pthread_stack_default_size): Remove global variable.
2013-11-30libports: another right leak fixRichard Braun
* libports/manage-multithread.c (adjust_priority): Deallocate host right before returning.
2013-11-28libports: improve error reporting in adjust_priorityJustus Winter
By using error instead of perror, the warning can be proprely attributed to the process. * libports/manage-multithread.c (adjust_priority): Use error instead of perror to print the warning.
2013-11-26libports: fix right leaks when adjusting prioritiesRichard Braun
* libports/manage-multithread.c (adjust_priority): Deallocate processor set rights before returning.
2013-11-16libports: implement lockless management of threadsJustus Winter
ports_manage_port_operations_multithread uses two values, totalthreads and nreqthreads, to manage the threads it creates. Previously a lock was used to synchronize the access to them. Use atomic operations instead. * libports/manage-multithread.c (ports_manage_port_operations_multithread): Use atomic operations instead of a lock to synchronize the access to totalthreads and nreqthreads.
2013-11-09libports: fix the thread counts in case the thread creation failsJustus Winter
Previously the number of total threads and the number of unused threads was wrong if at one point the creation of a thread failed. Fix this by decrementing both counters that were previously optimistically incremented. Adjust the comment accordingly. * libports/manage-multithread.c (ports_manage_port_operations_multithread): Fix the thread counts in case the thread creation fails.
2013-11-09Normalize whitespace at the end of each file to '\n'Justus Winter
Some files were not normalized. In console/motd.UTF8 the additional newline is intentional. Empty files were excluded as well.
2013-01-27Do not warn about not raising priority of non-root translatorsSamuel Thibault
* libports/manage-multithread.c (adjust_priority): Do not warn when raising the priority returns EPERM.
