URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/204831

Log:
  MFC r197137 and r200510, which fixes a problem in 8.0
  with callouts firing one tick too late. See the logs for
  the original patch for details.
  RELENG_7 is not affected by the problem.

Modified:
  stable/8/sys/kern/kern_timeout.c

+ * There is one struct callout_cpu per cpu, holding all relevant
+ * state for the callout processing thread on the individual CPU.
+ * In particular:
+ *     cc_ticks is incremented once per tick in callout_cpu().
+ *     It tracks the global 'ticks' but in a way that the individual
+ *     threads should not worry about races in the order in which
+ *     hardclock() and hardclock_cpu() run on the various CPUs.
+ *     cc_softclock is advanced in callout_cpu() to point to the
+ *     first entry in cc_callwheel that may need handling. In turn,
+ *     a softclock() is scheduled so it can serve the various entries i
+ *     such that cc_softclock <= i <= cc_ticks .
+ *     XXX maybe cc_softclock and cc_ticks should be volatile ?
+ *
+ *     cc_ticks is also used in callout_reset_cpu() to determine
+ *     when the callout should be served.
