     40  * Generic software interrupt framework.
     41  *
     42  * Overview
     43  *
     44  *	The soft interrupt framework provides a mechanism to schedule a
     45  *	low priority callback that runs with thread context.  It allows
     46  *	for dynamic registration of software interrupts, and for fair
     47  *	queueing and prioritization of those interrupts.  The callbacks
     48  *	can be scheduled to run from nearly any point in the kernel: by
     49  *	code running with thread context, by code running from a
     50  *	hardware interrupt handler, and at any interrupt priority
     51  *	level.
     52  *
     53  * Priority levels
     54  *
     55  *	Since soft interrupt dispatch can be tied to the underlying
     56  *	architecture's interrupt dispatch code, it can be limited
     57  *	both by the capabilities of the hardware and the capabilities
     58  *	of the interrupt dispatch code itself.  The number of priority
     59  *	levels is restricted to four.  In order of priority (lowest to
     60  *	highest) the levels are: clock, bio, net, serial.
     61  *
     62  *	The names are symbolic and in isolation do not have any direct
     63  *	connection with a particular kind of device activity: they are
     64  *	only meant as a guide.
     65  *
     66  *	The four priority levels map directly to scheduler priority
     67  *	levels, and where the architecture implements 'fast' software
     68  *	interrupts, they also map onto interrupt priorities.  The
     69  *	interrupt priorities are intended to be hidden from machine
     70  *	independent code, which should use thread-safe mechanisms to
     71  *	synchronize with software interrupts (for example: mutexes).
     72  *
     73  * Capabilities
     74  *
     75  *	Software interrupts run with limited machine context.  In
     76  *	particular, they do not posess any address space context.  They
     77  *	should not try to operate on user space addresses, or to use
     78  *	virtual memory facilities other than those noted as interrupt
     79  *	safe.
     80  *
     81  *	Unlike hardware interrupts, software interrupts do have thread
     82  *	context.  They may block on synchronization objects, sleep, and
     83  *	resume execution at a later time.
     84  *
     85  *	Since software interrupts are a limited resource and run with
     86  *	higher priority than most other LWPs in the system, all
     87  *	block-and-resume activity by a software interrupt must be kept
     88  *	short to allow futher processing at that level to continue.  By
     89  *	extension, code running with process context must take care to
     90  *	ensure that any lock that may be taken from a software interrupt
     91  *	can not be held for more than a short period of time.
     92  *
     93  *	The kernel does not allow software interrupts to use facilities
     94  *	or perform actions that may block for a significant amount of
     95  *	time.  This means that it's not valid for a software interrupt
     96  *	to sleep on condition variables	or wait for resources to become
     97  *	available (for example,	memory).
     98  *
     99  * Per-CPU operation
    100  *
    101  *	If a soft interrupt is triggered on a CPU, it can only be
    102  *	dispatched on the same CPU.  Each LWP dedicated to handling a
    103  *	soft interrupt is bound to its home CPU, so if the LWP blocks
    104  *	and needs to run again, it can only run there.  Nearly all data
    105  *	structures used to manage software interrupts are per-CPU.
    106  *
    107  *	The per-CPU requirement is intended to reduce "ping-pong" of
    108  *	cache lines between CPUs: lines occupied by data structures
    109  *	used to manage the soft interrupts, and lines occupied by data
    110  *	items being passed down to the soft interrupt.  As a positive
    111  *	side effect, this also means that the soft interrupt dispatch
    112  *	code does not need to to use spinlocks to synchronize.
    113  *
    114  * Generic implementation
    115  *
    116  *	A generic, low performance implementation is provided that
    117  *	works across all architectures, with no machine-dependent
    118  *	modifications needed.  This implementation uses the scheduler,
    119  *	and so has a number of restrictions:
    120  *
    121  *	1) The software interrupts are not currently preemptive, so
    122  *	must wait for the currently executing LWP to yield the CPU.
    123  *	This can introduce latency.
    124  *
    125  *	2) An expensive context switch is required for a software
    126  *	interrupt to be handled.
    127  *
    128  * 'Fast' software interrupts
    129  *
    130  *	If an architectures defines __HAVE_FAST_SOFTINTS, it implements
    131  *	the fast mechanism.  Threads running either in the kernel or in
    132  *	userspace will be interrupted, but will not be preempted.  When
    133  *	the soft interrupt completes execution, the interrupted LWP
    134  *	is resumed.  Interrupt dispatch code must provide the minimum
    135  *	level of context necessary for the soft interrupt to block and
    136  *	be resumed at a later time.  The machine-dependent dispatch
    137  *	path looks something like the following:
    138  *
    139  *	softintr()
    140  *	{
    141  *		go to IPL_HIGH if necessary for switch;
    142  *		save any necessary registers in a format that can be
    143  *		    restored by cpu_switchto if the softint blocks;
    144  *		arrange for cpu_switchto() to restore into the
    145  *		    trampoline function;
    146  *		identify LWP to handle this interrupt;
    147  *		switch to the LWP's stack;
    148  *		switch register stacks, if necessary;
    149  *		assign new value of curlwp;
    150  *		call MI softint_dispatch, passing old curlwp and IPL
    151  *		    to execute interrupt at;
    152  *		switch back to old stack;
    153  *		switch back to old register stack, if necessary;
    154  *		restore curlwp;
    155  *		return to interrupted LWP;
    156  *	}
    157  *
    158  *	If the soft interrupt blocks, a trampoline function is returned
    159  *	to in the context of the interrupted LWP, as arranged for by
    160  *	softint():
    161  *
    162  *	softint_ret()
    163  *	{
    164  *		unlock soft interrupt LWP;
    165  *		resume interrupt processing, likely returning to
    166  *		    interrupted LWP or dispatching another, different
    167  *		    interrupt;
    168  *	}
    169  *
    170  *	Once the soft interrupt has fired (and even if it has blocked),
    171  *	no further soft interrupts at that level will be triggered by
    172  *	MI code until the soft interrupt handler has ceased execution.
    173  *	If a soft interrupt handler blocks and is resumed, it resumes
    174  *	execution as a normal LWP (kthread) and gains VM context.  Only
    175  *	when it has completed and is ready to fire again will it
    176  *	interrupt other threads.
    177  *
    178  * Future directions
    179  *
    180  *	Provide a cheap way to direct software interrupts to remote
    181  *	CPUs.  Provide a way to enqueue work items into the handler
    182  *	record,	removing additional spl calls (see subr_workqueue.c).
