#define maxThreads 16 /* Bumped from 24: boot now spawns 22 kernel/user threads before the
scheduler even starts (kmain.c) -- several of which (workerA/workerB,
schedVerify, pipeProducer/pipeConsumer) park in an infinite halt() loop
rather than ever calling threadExit, so their slots are never freed for
reuse -- plus a handful more spawned at runtime by those boot programs
themselves (fifomaster's fiforeader/fifowriter, killtest's killvictim,
proctest's spawntarget/argtest) that can be alive at the same time as
their still-running parent. 24 was exactly enough before namedreader/
namedwriter's fifo-rendezvous demo added two more boot-time processes;
with them, every one of those later spawns (fifomaster's, killtest's,
proctest's own) started failing with the table genuinely full. The
free-slot reuse machinery below (allocSlot/threadReap) also needs
headroom above whatever boot needs to demonstrate exhaustion+reuse in
tests without permanently eating into threads real boot needs.
consolereader1/2+their injector and sigtest+its two short-lived,
promptly-reaped children (signal.h's demo) landed since without needing
another bump -- 32 held across dozens of stress runs, but with exactly
zero slots of headroom left over: boot-time spawns alone (kmain.c) had
already reached the full 32 the moment sigtest's own spawnUser call
returned, before any of killtest's/fifomaster's/proctest's own
runtime-spawned children (killvictim, fifowriter, spawntarget, argtest)
ever got a chance to exist. That razor-thin margin turned into a real,
observed race the moment jobtest+jobtarget (job control's live demo,
signal.h) landed as two more boot/runtime processes: every one of those
OTHER programs' children now had to wait for exactly one freed slot
(killvictim's, once threadReap'd) to fight over, and fifomaster's
fifowriter won that fight at the exact moment killtest was mid-way
through its own "kill an already-reaped pid must fail" check --
recycling killvictim's just-freed pid number into fifowriter's very much
alive one, so killtest's second userKill(victim) call genuinely
succeeded (against fifowriter, not "nothing") when it expected -1.
Not a scheduling-timing flake (see ci-test.sh's documented host-load
flakiness elsewhere): a deterministic consequence of table pressure,
reproduced identically across repeated runs until this bump. Restored
real headroom (bump to 40, not just the 2 jobtest/jobtarget need) so a
future addition does not immediately re-create the same zero-margin
situation. nesttest/nesttarget and eintrtest/eintrtarget (4 more
boot/runtime processes, signal.h's nested-delivery and early-wake demos)
fit under 40 with zero bump needed -- confirmed as the exact high-water
mark (`[sched] 40 threads total`), i.e. zero slots of headroom left
over again. restarttest/restarttarget (2 more, signal.h's SA_RESTART/
EINTR demo) would immediately hit the same razor-thin-margin class of
bug FALA 16's maxThreads bump above already fixed once, so bumped ahead
of that this time (40 -> 48) instead of waiting to observe it.
Confirmed as the exact high-water mark yet again once restarttest/
restarttarget actually landed (`[sched] 48 threads total`, checked live
before touching anything this fala) -- zero slots of headroom left over,
same story as 40 was before it. masktest/masktarget (2 more, signal.h's
sa_mask-defers-then-delivers live demo) would immediately re-create the
exact same class of bug, so bumped ahead of that again (48 -> 56)
instead of waiting to observe it, same reasoning as every bump above.
Confirmed as the exact high-water mark yet again once masktest/
masktarget landed (`[sched] 56 threads total`, checked live before
touching anything this fala) -- zero slots of headroom left over.
sigchldtest/sigchldchild (2 more, sched.c's new parentId/SIGCHLD-on-exit
live demo) would immediately re-create the exact same class of bug, so
bumped ahead of that again (56 -> 64) instead of waiting to observe it,
same reasoning as every bump above. Confirmed as the exact high-water
mark yet again once sigchldtest/sigchldchild landed (`[sched] 64 threads
total`, checked live before touching anything this fala) -- zero slots
of headroom left over. waitanytest/waitanyfast/waitanyslow (3 more,
sched.c's new threadJoinAnyChild/userWaitAny live demo) would
immediately re-create the exact same class of bug, so bumped ahead of
that again (64 -> 72) instead of waiting to observe it, same reasoning
as every bump above. Confirmed as the exact high-water mark yet again
once waitanytest/waitanyfast/waitanyslow landed (`[sched] 72 threads
total`, checked live before touching anything this fala) -- zero slots
of headroom left over. stopchldtest/stopchldtarget (2 more, sched.c's
new threadStop/threadContinue SIGCHLD-on-stop/SIGCHLD-on-continue live
demo) would immediately re-create the exact same class of bug, so
bumped ahead of that again (72 -> 80) instead of waiting to observe it,
same reasoning as every bump above. Confirmed as the exact high-water
mark yet again once stopchldtest/stopchldtarget landed (`[sched] 80
threads total`, checked live before touching anything this fala) --
zero slots of headroom left over. nodefertest (1 more, signal.h's new
sigFlagNoDefer live demo -- unlike every pair above, self-contained, no
spawned counterpart) would immediately re-create the exact same class
of bug, so bumped ahead of that again (80 -> 88) instead of waiting to
observe it, same reasoning as every bump above. alarmtest/alarmdefault
(2 more, sched.c's new threadSetAlarm/schedule()-expiry-scan real
SIGALRM live demo) would immediately re-create the exact same class of
bug, so bumped ahead of that again (88 -> 96) instead of waiting to
observe it, same reasoning as every bump above. siginfotest/
siginfotarget (2 more, signal.h's new sigFlagSigInfo/SigInfo live demo)
would immediately re-create the exact same class of bug, so bumped ahead
of that again (96 -> 104) instead of waiting to observe it, same
reasoning as every bump above. Confirmed as the exact high-water mark
yet again once siginfotest/siginfotarget landed (`[sched] 104 threads
total`, checked live before touching anything this fala) -- zero slots
of headroom left over. pgroupfg/pgroupbg (2 more, sched.c's new pgid/
process-group live demo, plus a third kernel-only injector thread,
kmain.c's pgroupInjectorThread) would immediately re-create the exact
same class of bug, so bumped ahead of that again (104 -> 112) instead of
waiting to observe it, same reasoning as every bump above. Confirmed as
the exact high-water mark yet again once pgroupfg/pgroupbg landed
(`[sched] 112 threads total`, checked live before touching anything this
fala) -- zero slots of headroom left over. jobctlfg/jobctlbg (2 more,
jobctl.c's new generic by-path spawn+real-job-control helper, loaded on
demand by the shell's own `NAME [ARGS] [&]` fallback rather than eagerly
at boot like everything above -- the first two user programs in this
kernel never once named in a kmain.c spawnUser call), plus a third
kernel-only driver thread (kmain.c's jobctlDriverThread, which types
commands at the real shell through the same injected-keystroke mechanism
pgroupInjectorThread already uses) would immediately re-create the exact
same class of bug, so bumped ahead of that again (112 -> 120) instead of
waiting to observe it, same reasoning as every bump above. polltest (1
more, boot-time driver for the new sysPoll multiplexed-fd wait) plus
pollwriter (1 more, runtime-spawned by polltest itself, mirroring
alarmtest/alarmdefault's shape) would immediately re-create the exact
same class of bug, so bumped ahead of that again (120 -> 128) instead of
waiting to observe it, same reasoning as every bump above. pipesrc/
pipesink (2 more, jobctl.c's new real shell pipeline demo, loaded on
demand exactly like jobctlfg/jobctlbg rather than boot-time spawnUser),
plus a third kernel-only driver thread (kmain.c's pipelineDriverThread,
which types the pipeline command at the real shell through the same
injected-keystroke mechanism jobctlDriverThread already uses) would
immediately re-create the exact same class of bug, so bumped ahead of
that again (128 -> 136) instead of waiting to observe it, same reasoning
as every bump above. redirwriter (1 more, jobctl.c's new file
redirection demo, run TWICE by kmain.c's redirDriverThread against the
same on-demand-loaded binary -- but each run is its own spawn+exit, so
only ONE of its process-table slots is ever live at a time) plus
redirreader (1 more, same on-demand-loading pattern as pipesrc/pipesink
above), plus a third kernel-only driver thread (kmain.c's
redirDriverThread, which types the redirected commands at the real
shell through the same injected-keystroke mechanism jobctlDriverThread/
pipelineDriverThread already use) would immediately re-create the exact
same class of bug, so bumped ahead of that again (136 -> 144) instead of
waiting to observe it, same reasoning as every bump above. stderrwriter
(1 more, jobctl.c's new stderr (fd 2) redirection demo, run TWICE by
kmain.c's stderrDriverThread against the same on-demand-loaded binary --
the exact same "only ONE of its process-table slots is ever live at a
time" shape redirwriter already has for `>`/`>>`) plus stderrreader (1
more, same on-demand-loading pattern as redirreader above), plus a third
kernel-only driver thread (kmain.c's stderrDriverThread, which types the
`2>`/`2>>`-redirected commands at the real shell through the same
injected-keystroke mechanism redirDriverThread already uses) would
immediately re-create the exact same class of bug, so bumped ahead of
that again (144 -> 152) instead of waiting to observe it, same reasoning
as every bump above. selfstoptest (boot-time spawned, self-directed
SIGSTOP live demo) plus selfstoptarget (1 more, runtime-spawned by
selfstoptest, the same *test / *target relationship jobtest/jobtarget
already have) are two more concurrently live threads, so bumped again
(152 -> 160) for the same headroom reason as every bump above. herestest
(1 more, jobctl.c's new here-string `<<<` stdin demo, on-demand-loaded
exactly like redirreader/stderrreader above -- no writer counterpart
binary at all, since the "writer" is the shell's own kernel thread, not
another spawned process) plus a third kernel-only driver thread (kmain.c's
hereDriverThread, which types the here-string command at the real shell
through the same injected-keystroke mechanism redirDriverThread/
stderrDriverThread already use) would immediately re-create the exact
same class of bug, so bumped ahead of that again (160 -> 168) instead of
waiting to observe it, same reasoning as every bump above. hcat (1 more,
jobctl.c's new jobctlSpawnPipedHereString demo -- a here-string stdin AND
a piped stdout on the same process at once, on-demand-loaded exactly like
herestest above) plus hsink (1 more, same on-demand-loading pattern as
pipesink above), plus a third kernel-only driver thread (kmain.c's
hereStringPipelineDriverThread, which types the here-string-into-pipeline
command at the real shell through the same injected-keystroke mechanism
pipelineDriverThread/hereDriverThread already use) would immediately
re-create the exact same class of bug, so bumped ahead of that again
(168 -> 176) instead of waiting to observe it, same reasoning as every
bump above. pipecat (1 more, shell.c's new runPipelineStages demo -- the
first process in this kernel with two DIFFERENT real inter-process pipes
on its own stdio at once, a genuine middle pipeline stage rather than a
here-string-plus-pipe like hcat above), plus a third kernel-only driver
thread (kmain.c's threeStagePipelineDriverThread, which types the
three-stage pipeline command at the real shell through the same
injected-keystroke mechanism pipelineDriverThread/hereStringPipelineDriverThread
already use) would immediately re-create the exact same class of bug, so
bumped ahead of that again (176 -> 184) instead of waiting to observe it,
same reasoning as every bump above. cwdtest (boot-time spawned, real
per-process working directory live demo -- sched.h's new Thread.cwd)
