sys: Remove $FreeBSD$: one-line .c pattern

2023-08-16T17:54:36Z

Remove /^[\s*]*__FBSDID$"\$FreeBSD\$"$;?\s*\n/

Use the actual credentials to create the /dev/nmdm* devices.

This lets plain users create nmdm pairs, which is useful amongst other things for running retro-computing emulators etc.

Extract eventfilter declarations to sys/_eventfilter.h

2019-05-20T00:38:23Z

This allows replacing "sys/eventfilter.h" includes with "sys/_eventfilter.h" in other header files (e.g., sys/{bus,conf,cpu}.h) and reduces header pollution substantially. EVENTHANDLER_DECLARE and EVENTHANDLER_LIST_DECLAREs were moved out of .c files into appropriate headers (e.g., sys/proc.h, powernv/opal.h). As a side effect of reduced header pollution, many .c files and headers no longer contain needed definitions. The remainder of the patch addresses adding appropriate includes to fix those files. LOCK_DEBUG and LOCK_FILE_LINE_ARG are moved to sys/_lock.h, as required by sys/mutex.h since r326106 (but silently protected by header pollution prior to this change). No functional change (intended). Of course, any out of tree modules that relied on header pollution for sys/eventhandler.h, sys/lock.h, or sys/mutex.h inclusion need to be fixed. __FreeBSD_version has been bumped.

sys/dev: further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

2017-11-20T19:36:21Z

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license. The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way, superceed or replace the license texts. Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a starting point.

Renumber copyright clause 4

2017-02-28T23:42:47Z

Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point. Submitted by: Jan Schaumann Pull Request: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/pull/96

Fix issue with nmdm and leading zeros in device name.

2014-09-10T05:44:15Z

The nmdm code enforces a number between the 'nmdm' and 'A|B' portions of the device name. This is then used as a unit number, and sprintf'd back into the tty name. If leading zeros were used in the name, the created device name is different than the string used for the clone-open (e.g. /dev/nmdm0001A will result in /dev/nmdm1A). Since unit numbers are no longer required with the updated tty code, there seems to be no reason to force the string to be a number. The fix is to allow an arbitrary string between 'nmdm' and 'A|B', within the constraints of devfs names. This allows all existing user of numeric strings to continue to work, and also allows more meaningful names to be used, such as bhyve VM names. Tested on amd64, i386 and ppc64.

Make nmdm(4) destroy devices when both sides of a pair are disconnected.

2013-12-18T12:53:48Z

This makes it possible to kldunload nmdm.ko when there are no users of it. Reviewed by: kib Sponsored by: Nginx, Inc.

Mark MALLOC_DEFINEs static that have no corresponding MALLOC_DECLAREs.

This means that their use is restricted to a single C file.

- Remove an unnecessary memory barrier from an atomic op.

- Use the per-softc mutex to protect the softc data in the callout routine rather than letting it run without any locks whatsoever.

Last minute TTY API change: remove mutex argument from tty_alloc().

2009-05-29T06:41:23Z

I don't want people to override the mutex when allocating a TTY. It has to be there, to keep drivers like syscons happy. So I'm creating a tty_alloc_mutex() which can be used in those cases. tty_alloc_mutex() should eventually be removed. The advantage of this approach, is that we can just remove a function, without breaking the regular API in the future.
