BRANCHES revision 1.240 1 # $NetBSD: BRANCHES,v 1.240 2008/02/21 11:09:39 keiichi Exp $
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.
22 #
23 # Format:
24 # Branch: name of branch
25 # Description: Purpose and intention of the branch
26 # Status: Active/Terminated/Dormant
27 # Start Date: date first instantiated
28 # End Date: date it was Terminated/made_Dormant, if any
29 # Base Tag: netbsd-1-5-base, etc.
30 # Maintainer: Somebody to blame.
31 # Scope: Portion of the tree covered.
32 # Notes: Various other info, perhaps explanation of special tags,
33 # who-may-commit policies, etc.
34 #
35 # There are four sections to this file:
36 # Release branches
37 # Individual developers' branches (Active/Dormant)
38 # Individual developers' branches (Terminated), and
39 # other
40 #
41 # Entries within each section should be alphabetized.

211 Branch: ad-audiomp
212 Description: Add MP locking to the audio drivers
213 Status: Active
214 Start Date: 28 February 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 initialization, 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.
244
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: chris-arm-intr-rework
258 Description: Rework arm interrupt handling code
259 Status: Active
260 Start Date: 11 Aug 2007

264 Scope: sys/arch/arm sys/arch/cats (other arm archs to follow)
265 Notes: Rework arm interrupt code to provide a shared set of interrupt
266 routines, and allow improvements to be shared across all arm
267 based hardware.

279 Branch: gmcgarry_ctxsw
280 Description: Separate scheduler from context-switch code
281 Status: Dormant
282 Start Date: 18 December 2002
283 End Date:
284 Base Tag: gmcgarry_ctxsw_base
285 Maintainer: Gregory McGarry <gmcgarry (a] NetBSD.org>
286 Scope: kernel
287 Notes: Removing knowledge of the scheduler and its run queues
288 from the machine-dependent context switch code is the
289 first step in cleaning up the scheduler. It is necessary
290 for the newlock branch, making the scheduler SMP friendly,
291 adding real-time scheduler extensions, and reducing the
292 number of code paths for LWP and proc switching.

440 Base Tag: rpaulo-netinet-merge-pcb-base
441 Maintainer: Rui Paulo <rpaulo (a] NetBSD.org>
442 Scope: src/sys
443 Notes: No longer active due to the lack of time. If you plan to
444 continue this branch, sys/netinet/in_pcb.h already contains
445 the proposed structure layout (which was roughly discussed
446 in the tech-net mailing list).
447 I also defined INP_*() macros to mimicate FreeBSD's inpcb
448 locking style, but currently they do nothing and are not
449 yet called at the correct places (needs discussion about
450 kernel fine-grained locking).
451 To continue this branch, one needs to read all the relevant
452 inpcb/in6pcb source files and change the function names,
453 structure names, structure fields according to the new
454 layout (in6pcb is gone).
455 Don't try to build a kernel from this branch because it won't
456 work. The missing pieces required to do a complete build
457 were not committed because they were incomplete and generated
458 panics.
459 You shouldn't need to worry about KAME syncs because
460 they did most of them by now.
461 After the work is done, you are required to test the branch
462 (before the merge to -current) with an interop IPv6 test.

490 Notes: This branch is based off of the netbsd-4 branch!
491 This branch is intended to stage improvements for the
492 Scheduler Activations system for NetBSD 4. Improvements
493 include not allocating memory while preparing to tsleep(),
494 reducing inappropriate upcall delivery (hopefully also
495 eliminating the need to mlock stacks), and being
496 able to pthread_kill() running threads.

515 Branch: yamt-lazymbuf
516 Description: implement and evaluate lazy mapping of mbuf external data pages
517 also, change the way to share mbuf external storage.
518 it's intended as the first step of larger changes.
519 1. support operations (esp. bus_dma load) on
520 unmapped mbuf.
521 2. unify mbuf and buf.
522 (or, at least some parts of them)

537 Branch: reinoud-bufcleanup
538 Description: implement and evaluate struct buf usage cleanup strategies.
539 Ideas currently in mind (preference for b):
540 a)
541 1. use of bio_ops per buffer.
542 2. allow chaining/overloading of functions in bio_ops
543 and provide some private context.
544 3. extend the bio_ops with commonly used functionality
545 like pending action counting, custom context passing,
546 last minute processing of buffer data, buffer cache
547 etc.
548 4. investigate the use of the kcont()
549 continuation-passing framework for async io
550 completion notification for bufs
551 ...
552 b)
553 1. all sequencing use of B_CALL replaced by
554 device-threads, if possible generic code around BUFQ
555 2. possibly use kcont() for async IO finished signaling
556 3. counter of pending and queued actions requestable
557 by IOCTL interface?
558 4. implement `last minute buffer fixup' calls and maybe
559 even finished I/O calls as vnode operations
560 ...

619 all - Need to replace mb_*() with membar_*().
620
621 - Audit MUTEX_CAS() and RWLOCK_CAS() uses
622 to see of membar_enter() is required here.
623
624 - Talk to ad@ -- figure out of non-atomic
625 mutex / rwlock release is actually safe.
626
627 arm - Consider using a RAS technique like
628 MIPS uses for _lock_cas() and the mutex
629 stubs. Possibly do more than one atomic
630 op as a RAS. Possibly implement mutex
631 stubs using the technique.
632
633 m68k - Need to do 68010 support.
634
635 i386 - Need to change when x86_patch() is called
636 so we can test ncpus.
637
638 powerpc - Figure out if we need barriers in the
639 atomic ops themselves (hopefully not!)
640
641 x86_64 - Need to change when x86_patch() is called
642 so we can test ncpus.

1222 Base tag: wrstuden-devbsize-base
1223 Maintainer: Bill Studenmund <wrstuden (a] NetBSD.org>
1224 Scope: kernel
1225 Notes: No longer active due to lack of time, and introduction
1226 of UBC. In terms of UBC, the primary cache for
1227 file data is the VM cache, which needs to operate
1228 in terms of VM pages. As no existing device has native
1229 pages the same size as our VM pages, there already is
1230 a mapping going on between the VM system and the
1231 underlying blocks. So it would be easier and cleaner
1232 to adjust that to deal w/ different block sizes.
1233 Also with UBC, all i/o is in terms of bytes at an offset
1234 with a certain length, so the exact block size isn't a big
1235 deal.
1236
1237 Any other wrstuden-devbsize tag may (and should) go away.

1273 How to adapt a port?
1274
1275 - unify cpu_switch, cpu_exit, cpu_switchto into
1276 a single cpu_switchto. see cpu_switchto.9.
1277
1278 - implement cpu_idle. see cpu_idle.9.
1279
1280 - add a flag argument to cpu_need_resched.
1281 handle RESCHED_IMMED flag, which means "cause a preemption
1282 as soon as possible." eg. in the case of MULTIPROCESSOR,
1283 send an IPI to the target cpu.
1284
1285 - "curlwp == NULL" is not a valid check for idle state anymore.
1286 use "(curlwp->l_flag & LW_IDLE) != 0" instead. curlwp is
1287 almost always non-NULL, with exceptions like early on boot.
1288
1289 - remove idle pcbs.
1290
1291 - (if MULTIPROCESSOR) tweak processor trampoline code.
1292
1293 - (if MULTIPROCESSOR) call mi_cpu_attach when attaching
1294 secondary processors.
1295
1296 - (if schedhz!=0) call schedclock regardless of the value of
1297 curlwp.
1298
1299 - of course, update MD users of scheduler/switching API.
