• Ted Unangst - OpenBSD vs SMP, threading, and concurrency
  Source: DCBSDCon

  I will discuss the current status of kernel SMP support, the rthreads thread library, and relevant future developments. Over the years, we have accumulated several concurrency primitives in the kernel, causing some confusion amongst developers, so I will lay out the origin and correct usage for each. The talk is primarily targeted at the budding OpenBSD kernel developer, but I will also describe the end-user effects of each topic.

  Introduction to Multithreading and Multiprocessing in the FreeBSD SMPng Network Stack (370 Kb)
  

  EuroBSDCon 2005 took place in Basel, Switzerland in November, 2005. Due to an injury, I was unable to attend the conference itself, and my talks were presented in absentia by Poul-Henning Kamp and Ed Maste, who have my greatest appreciation!
  > The FreeBSD SMPng Project has spent the past five years redesigning and reimplementing SMP support for the FreeBSD operating system, moving from a Giant-locked kernel to a fine-grained locking implementation with greater kernel threading and parallelism. This paper introduces the FreeBSD SMPng Project, its architectural goals and implementation approach. It then explores the impact of SMPng on the FreeBSD network stack, including strategies for integrating SMP support into the network stack, locking approaches, optimizations, and challenges.
