.Dd November 3, 2000 .Dt SLEEPQUEUE 9 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm endtsleep , .Nm sleepinit , .Nm unsleep .Nd manage the queues of sleeping processes .Sh SYNOPSIS .Fd #include <sys/param.h> .Fd #include <sys/proc.h> .Ft void .Fn endtsleep "void *arg" .Ft void .Fn sleepinit "void" .Ft void .Fn unsleep "struct proc *p" .Sh DESCRIPTION The sleep queues used by .Xr msleep 9 and friends are stored in a hash array. The address of the wait channel is used to generate an index into the array. Each entry in the array is a queue of processes that are sleeping on wait channels that hash to that index. .Xr msleep 9 places processes into their appropriate queues directly. To handle timeouts, the .Fn endtsleep function is registered as a .Xr timeout 9 . When the process is woken by either .Fn wakeup or .Fn wakeup_one , the timeout is revoked via .Xr untimeout 9 . If the process is not awakened soon enough, then .Fn endtsleep is called with .Fa arg pointing to the .Vt "struct proc" of the process that timed out. .Fn endtsleep undoes the sleep and makes the process runnable if it is in the .Dv SSLEEP state. The sleep queues and the hash array are protected internally by the .Va sched_lock mutex.

p .Fn unsleep simply removes the process .Fa p from its sleep queue.

p .Fn sleepinit is called during system startup and initializes the scheduler quantum

q Va sched_quantum and the sleep queues. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr msleep 9 , .Xr runqueue 9 , .Xr scheduler 9
