4b83b27fea Fix a problem that caused system crashes after physio. This problem
was due to non-aligned 64K transfers taking 17 pages.  We currently
do not support >16 page transfers.  The transfer is unfortunately truncated,
but since buffers are usually malloced, this is a problem only once in
a while.  Savecore is a culprit, but tar/cpio usually aren't.  This
is NOT the final fix (which is likely a bouncing scheme), but will at
least keep the system from crashing.

6ba9ebce28 devsw tables are now arrays of POINTERS to struct [cb]devsw
seems to work hre just fine though  I can't check every file
that changed due to limmited h/w, however I've checked enught to be petty
happy withe hte code..

WARNING... struct lkm[mumble] has changed
so it might be an idea to recompile any lkm related programs

6884d2aae7 Implement read/write to kernel space - I use this for a self-loading/
self-decompressing ram disk that I'm fiddling with..

(Note, this depends on the various syscalls having correctly set uio_segflag
 before calling physio - I've checked and they look correct.)

b5e8ce9f12 Add and move declarations to fix all of the warnings from `gcc -Wimplicit'
(except in netccitt, netiso and netns) and most of the warnings from
`gcc -Wnested-externs'.  Fix all the bugs found.  There were no serious
ones.

0d94caffca These changes embody the support of the fully coherent merged VM buffer cache,
much higher filesystem I/O performance, and much better paging performance. It
represents the culmination of over 6 months of R&D.

The majority of the merged VM/cache work is by John Dyson.

The following highlights the most significant changes. Additionally, there are
(mostly minor) changes to the various filesystem modules (nfs, msdosfs, etc) to
support the new VM/buffer scheme.

vfs_bio.c:
Significant rewrite of most of vfs_bio to support the merged VM buffer cache
scheme.  The scheme is almost fully compatible with the old filesystem
interface.  Significant improvement in the number of opportunities for write
clustering.

vfs_cluster.c, vfs_subr.c
Upgrade and performance enhancements in vfs layer code to support merged
VM/buffer cache.  Fixup of vfs_cluster to eliminate the bogus pagemove stuff.

vm_object.c:
Yet more improvements in the collapse code.  Elimination of some windows that
can cause list corruption.

vm_pageout.c:
Fixed it, it really works better now.  Somehow in 2.0, some "enhancements"
broke the code.  This code has been reworked from the ground-up.

vm_fault.c, vm_page.c, pmap.c, vm_object.c
Support for small-block filesystems with merged VM/buffer cache scheme.

pmap.c vm_map.c
Dynamic kernel VM size, now we dont have to pre-allocate excessive numbers of
kernel PTs.

vm_glue.c
Much simpler and more effective swapping code.  No more gratuitous swapping.

proc.h
Fixed the problem that the p_lock flag was not being cleared on a fork.

swap_pager.c, vnode_pager.c
Removal of old vfs_bio cruft to support the past pseudo-coherency.  Now the
code doesn't need it anymore.

machdep.c
Changes to better support the parameter values for the merged VM/buffer cache
scheme.

machdep.c, kern_exec.c, vm_glue.c
Implemented a seperate submap for temporary exec string space and another one
to contain process upages. This eliminates all map fragmentation problems
that previously existed.

ffs_inode.c, ufs_inode.c, ufs_readwrite.c
Changes for merged VM/buffer cache.  Add "bypass" support for sneaking in on
busy buffers.

bb56ec4a05 While in the real world, I had a bad case of being swapped out for a lot of
cycles.  While waiting there I added a lot of the extra ()'s I have, (I have
never used LISP to any extent).  So I compiled the kernel with -Wall and
shut up a lot of "suggest you add ()'s", removed a bunch of unused var's
and added a couple of declarations here and there.  Having a lap-top is
highly recommended.  My kernel still runs, yell at me if you kernel breaks.

f23b4c91c4 Fix up some sloppy coding practices:
- Delete redundant declarations.
- Add -Wredundant-declarations to Makefile.i386 so they don't come back.
- Delete sloppy COMMON-style declarations of uninitialized data in
  header files.
- Add a few prototypes.
- Clean up warnings resulting from the above.

NB: ioconf.c will still generate a redundant-declaration warning, which
is unavoidable unless somebody volunteers to make `config' smarter.

16f62314cd Incorporated post 1.1.5 work from John Dyson. This includes performance
improvements via the new routines pmap_qenter/pmap_qremove and pmap_kenter/
pmap_kremove. These routine allow fast mapping of pages for those
architectures that have "normal" MMUs. Also included is a fix to the
pageout daemon to properly check a queue end condition.
