      3 # This file contains a list of branches that exist in the NetBSD CVS
      4 # tree and their current state.
      5 #
      6 # This list is necessarily incomplete.
      7 # 
      8 # Within reason, developers may create branch and version tags at any
      9 # time for any purpose.  To avoid name collisions, private tags should
     10 # have names which begin with the developer's NetBSD login name
     11 # followed by a - or _ character (e.g., thorpej_scsipi,
     12 # thorpej-signal)
     13 # 
     14 # Any branch or version tag not listed here should be assumed to be
     15 # private to the developer who created it.  It is inappropriate for
     16 # anyone other than that developer to commit, move tags, or otherwise
     17 # modify the contents of the branch.
     18 #
     19 # Please update this file when a new branch is ready for consumption
     20 # by folks other than the maintainer, or when the use or status of an
     21 # existing branch changes significantly.
     22 #
     23 # Format:
     24 #   Branch:	  name of branch
     25 #   Description:  Purpose and intention of the branch

    211 Branch:		ad-audiomp
    212 Description:	Add MP locking to the audio drivers
    213 Status:		Active
    214 Start Date:	28 Febuary 2007
    215 End Date:
    216 Base Tag:	ad-audiomp-base
    217 Maintainer:	Andrew Doran <ad (a] NetBSD.org>
    218 Scope:		kernel
    219 Notes:		Making the audio drivers MP safe is necessary before efforts
    220 		can be made to make the VM system MP safe. About 1/2 of the
    221 		drivers are converted, the remaining 1/2 need more changes.
    222 
    223 		As of import this is snapshot of work in progress and so
    224 		may not compile; in particular the midi changes are very
    225 		much "in progress". The audio component has been tested
    226 		and verified to work with emuxki and auvia. There may
    227 		be a locking issue in the ac97 code at boot.
    228 
    229 		The are two locks per device instance, an ISR lock and
    230 		a character device lock. The ISR lock replaces calls to
    231 		splaudio()/splx(), and will be held across calls to device
    232 		methods which were called at splaudio() before (e.g.
    233 		trigger_output). The character device lock is held across
    234 		calls to nearly all of the methods, excluding some only
    235 		used for initializtion, e.g. get_locks. This needs to be
    236 		documented at merge time.
    237 
    238 		To test on a multi way x86 system, search for "mpsafe" in
    239 		x86/x86/intr.c and change IPL_SCHED to IPL_AUDIO. Run a job
    240 		that will acquire the ISR lock (depends on the hardware, but
    241 		"while true; do mixerctl -a > /dev/null; done" may suffice).
    242 		Play audio, run lockstat and verify that that there is
    243 		contention on the ISR lock.

    245 Branch:		bjh21-hydra
    246 Description:	Simtec Hydra support and ARM SMP in general
    247 Status:		Dormant
    248 Start Date:	18 Oct 2002
    249 End Date:
    250 Base Tag:	bjh21-hydra-base
    251 Maintainer:	Ben Harris <bjh21 (a] NetBSD.org>
    252 Scope:		sys/arch/arm sys/arch/acorn32
    253 Notes:		This code was on a branch because it involves changes to
    254 		cpuswitch.S which would otherwise make merging the
    255 		nathanw_sa branch difficult.
    256 
    257 Branch:		gmcgarry_ctxsw
    258 Description:	Separate scheduler from context-switch code
    259 Status:		Dormant
    260 Start Date:	18 December 2002
    261 End Date:
    262 Base Tag:	gmcgarry_ctxsw_base
    263 Maintainer:	Gregory McGarry <gmcgarry (a] NetBSD.org>
    264 Scope:		kernel
    265 Notes:		Removing knowledge of the schedular and its run queues
    266 		from the machine-dependent context switch code is the
    267 		first step in cleaning up the scheduler.  It is necessary
    268 		for the newlock branch, making the scheduler SMP friendly,
    269 		adding real-time scheduler extensions, and reducing the
    270 		number of code paths for LWP and proc switching.
    271

    290 Notes:		http://www.kame.net
    291 		Used for "reference" purposes for early part of KAME
    292 		integration effort.  The branch is not actively used, as I
    293 		(itojun) use patch(1) and diff(1) for the KAME syncs.

    325 Maintainer:	Jason R. Thorpe <thorpej (a] NetBSD.org>
    326 Scope:		Kernel
    327 Notes:		The goal is to replace the existing lockmgr() and
    328 		simple_lock() based locking mechanisms with the
    329 		primitives found in Solaris: mutexes and rwlocks.
    330 		Superseeded by the newlock2 branch.
    331 
    332 Branch:		newlock2
    333 Description:	New locking primitives, based on Solaris's

    337 Base Tag:	newlock2-base
    338 Maintainer:	Andrew Doran <ad (a] NetBSD.org>
    339 Scope:		Kernel
    340 Notes:		As per the newlock branch, however given the amount of time
    341 		the original branch has lain dormant, a new one has been
    342 		created.  Goals:
    343 		- Implement new locking primitives on most-used ports.
    344 		- Minor locking improvements.
    345 		- Remove spinlockmgr().

    347 Branch:	  	pkgviews

    353 Maintainer:	Alistair Crooks <agc (a] NetBSD.org>

    359 Branch:		rpaulo-netinet-merge-pcb

    361 Status:		Dormant
    362 Start Date:	Wed Feb 01 2006
    363 End Date:	
    364 Base Tag:	rpaulo-netinet-merge-pcb-base
    365 Maintainer:	Rui Paulo <rpaulo (a] NetBSD.org>
    366 Scope:		src/sys
    367 Notes:		No longer active due to the lack of time. If you plan to
    368 		continue this branch, sys/netinet/in_pcb.h already contains
    369 		the proposed structure layout (which was roughly discussed
    370 		in the tech-net mailing list).
    371 		I also defined INP_*() macros to mimicate FreeBSD's inpcb
    372 		locking style, but currently they do nothing and are not
    373 		yet called at the correct places (needs discussion about
    374 		kernel fine-grained locking).
    375 		To continue this branch, one needs to read all the relevant
    376 		inpcb/in6pcb source files and change the function names,
    377 		structure names, structure fileds according to the new
    378 		layout (in6pcb is gone).
    379 		Don't try to build a kernel from this branch because it won't
    380 		work. The missing pieces required to do a complete build
    381 		were not committed because they were incomplete and generated
    382 		panics.
    383 		You shouldn't need to worry about KAME syncs because
    384 		they did most of them by now.
    385 		After the work is done, you are required to test the branch
    386 		(before the merge to -current) with an interop IPv6 test.

    420 Branch:		vmlocking
    421 Description:	Make memory allocators and trap handling MP safe
    422 Status:		Active
    423 Start Date:	13 March 2007
    424 End Date:
    425 Base Tag:	vmlocking-base
    426 Maintainer:	Andrew Doran <ad (a] NetBSD.org>
    427 Scope:		kernel
    428 Notes:
    429 		- Replace all simplelocks with mutexes
    430 		- Remove spinlockmgr
    431 		- Make memory allocators MP safe
    432 		- Make trap handling MP safe: push kernel lock acquire
    433 		  back into pager ops.
    434 
    435 		Only i386 is currently update.  Most per architecture
    436 		changes need to be made in the pmap module.  LFS is not
    437 		currently stable due interaction between the pagedaemon (?)
    438 		and the HOLDRELE() in lfs_segment.c.  It may trash your
    439 		filesystem..
    440 
    441 		Most of the locks replaced are now sleep/adaptive locks or
    442 		spin locks at IPL_VM.  Assuming audio interrupt handlers
    443 		are made MP safe there are far fewer potential deadlocks
    444 		against the kernel lock.
    445 
    446 		v_interlock becomes an adaptive mutex so now acquring
    447 		it can potentially block, similarly for other locks
    448 		that were before simplelocks.  This needs to be audited
    449 		carefully.
    450 
    451 		Use vnodes in general needs to be audited, as vnodes can
    452 		now be inspected without the kernel lock held.
    453 
    454 		Acquiring locks in the pmap module can now block, meaning
    455 		that the current pmap, cpu or lazy pmap status can change
    456 		out from underneath the requestor.  This also needs to be
    457 		audited.
    458 
    459 		Currently, i386 has the necessary modifications, and has
    460 		trap handling and a few calls to allocators out from under
    461 		the kernel lock.  There are still problems that need to be
    462 		debugged.
    463 
    464 		Need to check that whenever a lock is initialized, it is
    465 		also destroyed.
    466 
    467 		Lots of testing required.

    469 Branch:		yamt-idlelwp
    470 Description:	idle lwp, and some changes depending on it.

    485 Notes:		
    486 		how to adapt a port?
    487 
    488 		- unify cpu_switch, cpu_exit, cpu_switchto into
    489 		  a single cpu_switchto.  see cpu_switchto.9.
    490 
    491 		- implement cpu_idle.  see cpu_idle.9.
    492 
    493 		- add a flag argument to cpu_need_resched.
    494 		  handle RESCHED_IMMED flag, which means "cause a preemption
    495 		  as soon as possible."  eg. in the case of MULTIPROCESSOR,
    496 		  send an IPI to the target cpu.
    497 
    498 		- "curlwp == NULL" is not a valid check for idle state anymore.
    499 		  use "(curlwp->l_flag & LW_IDLE) != 0" instead.  curlwp is
    500 		  almost always non-NULL, with exceptions like early on boot.
    501 
    502 		- remove idle pcbs.
    503 
    504 		- (if MULTIPROCESSOR) allocate idle lwps for non-primary
    505 		  processors by calling create_idle_lwp.  tweak processor
    506 		  trampoline code.
    507 
    508 		- (if schedhz!=0) call schedclock regardless of the value of
    509 		  curlwp.
    510 
    511 		- of course, update MD users of scheduler/switching API.

    513 Branch:		yamt-lazymbuf
    514 Description:	implement and evaluate lazy mapping of mbuf external data pages
    515 		it's intended as the first step of larger changes.
    516 			1. support operations (esp. bus_dma load) on
    517 			   unmapped mbuf.
    518 			2. unify mbuf and buf.
    519 			   (or, at least some parts of them)
    520 			3. then it should be trivial to implement
    521 			   i/o coalescing, etc.

    530 Branch:		reinoud-bufcleanup
    531 Description:	implement and evaluate struct buf usage cleanup strategies.
    532 		Ideas currently in mind (preference for b):
    533 		a)
    534 			1. use of bio_ops per buffer.
    535 			2. allow chaining/overloading of functions in bio_ops
    536 			   and provide some private context.
    537 			3. extend the bio_ops with commenly used functionality
    538 			   like pending action counting, custom context passing,
    539 			   last minute processing of buffer data, buffer cache
    540 			   etc.
    541 			4. investigate the use of the kcont()
    542 			   continuation-passing framework for async io
    543 			   completion notification for bufs
    544 			...
    545 		b)
    546 			1. all sequencing use of B_CALL replaced by
    547 			   device-threads, if possible generic code around BUFQ
    548 			2. possibly use kcont() for async IO finished signalling
    549 			3. counter of pending and queued actions requestable
    550 			   by IOCTL interface?
    551 			4. implement `last minute buffer fixup' calls and maybe
    552 			   even finished I/O calls as vnode operations
    553 			...

   1009 Scope:		kernel
   1010 Notes:		No longer active due to lack of time, and introduction
   1011 		of UBC. In terms of UBC, the primary cache for
   1012 		file data is the VM cache, which needs to operate
   1013 		in terms of VM pages. As no existing device has native
   1014 		pages the same size as our VM pages, there already is
   1015 		a mapping going on between the VM system and the
   1016 		underlying blocks. So it would be easier and cleaner
   1017 		to adjust that to deal w/ different block sizes.
   1018 		Also with UBC, all i/o is in terms of bytes at an offset
   1019 		with a certain length, so the exact block size isn't a big
   1020 		deal.
   1021 
   1022 		Any other wrstuden-devbsize tag may (and should) go away.
