2#
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.

211Branch:		ad-audiomp
212Description:	Add MP locking to the audio drivers
213Status:		Active
214Start Date:	28 Febuary 2007
215End Date:
216Base Tag:	ad-audiomp-base
217Maintainer:	Andrew Doran <ad@NetBSD.org>
218Scope:		kernel
219Notes:		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.

251Maintainer:	Ben Harris <bjh21@NetBSD.org>
252Scope:		sys/arch/arm sys/arch/acorn32
253Notes:		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
257Branch:		gmcgarry_ctxsw
258Description:	Separate scheduler from context-switch code
259Status:		Dormant
260Start Date:	18 December 2002
261End Date:
262Base Tag:	gmcgarry_ctxsw_base
263Maintainer:	Gregory McGarry <gmcgarry@NetBSD.org>
264Scope:		kernel
265Notes:		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.

391Notes:		This branch is for a general cleanup of all OEA-based PowerPC
392		ports. OEA (Operating Environment Architecture) PowerPC refers
393		to the 601, 603, 604, and similar chips.  Specifically, not the
394		403/401 and other embedded chips. The general concept is to get
395		them all compiling, and sharing as much code as possible.  All
396		developers are welcome to commit to this branch.

403Base Tag:	rpaulo-netinet-merge-pcb-base
404Maintainer:	Rui Paulo <rpaulo@NetBSD.org>
405Scope:		src/sys
406Notes:		No longer active due to the lack of time. If you plan to
407		continue this branch, sys/netinet/in_pcb.h already contains
408		the proposed structure layout (which was roughly discussed
409		in the tech-net mailing list).
410		I also defined INP_*() macros to mimicate FreeBSD's inpcb
411		locking style, but currently they do nothing and are not
412		yet called at the correct places (needs discussion about
413		kernel fine-grained locking).
414		To continue this branch, one needs to read all the relevant
415		inpcb/in6pcb source files and change the function names,
416		structure names, structure fileds according to the new
417		layout (in6pcb is gone).
418		Don't try to build a kernel from this branch because it won't
419		work. The missing pieces required to do a complete build
420		were not committed because they were incomplete and generated
421		panics.
422		You shouldn't need to worry about KAME syncs because
423		they did most of them by now.
424		After the work is done, you are required to test the branch
425		(before the merge to -current) with an interop IPv6 test.

450Maintainer:	Bill Stouder-Studenmund <wrstuden@NetBSD.org>
451Scope:		src, though all the interesting stuff is in the kernel
452		or lib/libpthread or maybe gdb.
453Notes:		This branch is based off of the netbsd-4 branch!
454		This branch is intended to stage improvements for the
455		Scheduler Activations system for NetBSD 4. Improvements
456		include not allocating memory while preparing to tsleep(),
457		reducing inappropriate upcall delivery (hopefully also
458		eliminating the need to mlock stacks), and being
459		able to pthread_kill() running threads.

461Branch:		vmlocking
462Description:	Make memory allocators and trap handling MP safe
463Status:		Active
464Start Date:	13 March 2007
465End Date:
466Base Tag:	vmlocking-base
467Maintainer:	Andrew Doran <ad@NetBSD.org>
468Scope:		kernel
469Notes:
470		- Replace all simplelocks with mutexes
471		- Remove spinlockmgr
472		- Make memory allocators MP safe
473		- Make trap handling MP safe: push kernel lock acquire
474		  back into pager ops.
475
476		Only i386 is currently update.  Most per architecture
477		changes need to be made in the pmap module.  LFS is not
478		currently stable due interaction between the pagedaemon (?)
479		and the HOLDRELE() in lfs_segment.c.  It may trash your
480		filesystem..
481
482		Most of the locks replaced are now sleep/adaptive locks or
483		spin locks at IPL_VM.  Assuming audio interrupt handlers
484		are made MP safe there are far fewer potential deadlocks
485		against the kernel lock.
486
487		v_interlock becomes an adaptive mutex so now acquring
488		it can potentially block, similarly for other locks
489		that were before simplelocks.  This needs to be audited
490		carefully.
491
492		Use vnodes in general needs to be audited, as vnodes can
493		now be inspected without the kernel lock held.
494
495		Acquiring locks in the pmap module can now block, meaning
496		that the current pmap, cpu or lazy pmap status can change
497		out from underneath the requestor.  This also needs to be
498		audited.
499
500		Currently, i386 has the necessary modifications, and has
501		trap handling and a few calls to allocators out from under
502		the kernel lock.  There are still problems that need to be
503		debugged.
504
505		Need to check that whenever a lock is initialized, it is
506		also destroyed.
507
508		Lots of testing required.

513		it's intended as the first step of larger changes.
514			1. support operations (esp. bus_dma load) on
515			   unmapped mbuf.
516			2. unify mbuf and buf.
517			   (or, at least some parts of them)

532Branch:		reinoud-bufcleanup
533Description:	implement and evaluate struct buf usage cleanup strategies.
534		Ideas currently in mind (preference for b):
535		a)
536			1. use of bio_ops per buffer.
537			2. allow chaining/overloading of functions in bio_ops
538			   and provide some private context.

1100Notes:		No longer active due to lack of time, and introduction
1101		of UBC. In terms of UBC, the primary cache for
1102		file data is the VM cache, which needs to operate
1103		in terms of VM pages. As no existing device has native
1104		pages the same size as our VM pages, there already is
1105		a mapping going on between the VM system and the
1106		underlying blocks. So it would be easier and cleaner
1107		to adjust that to deal w/ different block sizes.
1108		Also with UBC, all i/o is in terms of bytes at an offset
1109		with a certain length, so the exact block size isn't a big
1110		deal.
1111
1112		Any other wrstuden-devbsize tag may (and should) go away.

1148		How to adapt a port?
1149
1150		- unify cpu_switch, cpu_exit, cpu_switchto into
1151		  a single cpu_switchto.  see cpu_switchto.9.
1152
1153		- implement cpu_idle.  see cpu_idle.9.
1154
1155		- add a flag argument to cpu_need_resched.
1156		  handle RESCHED_IMMED flag, which means "cause a preemption
1157		  as soon as possible."  eg. in the case of MULTIPROCESSOR,
1158		  send an IPI to the target cpu.
1159
1160		- "curlwp == NULL" is not a valid check for idle state anymore.
1161		  use "(curlwp->l_flag & LW_IDLE) != 0" instead.  curlwp is
1162		  almost always non-NULL, with exceptions like early on boot.
1163
1164		- remove idle pcbs.
1165
1166		- (if MULTIPROCESSOR) tweak processor trampoline code.
1167
1168		- (if MULTIPROCESSOR) call mi_cpu_attach when attaching
1169		  secondary processors.
1170
1171		- (if schedhz!=0) call schedclock regardless of the value of
1172		  curlwp.
1173
1174		- of course, update MD users of scheduler/switching API.
