This follows more closely the suggestions in the latest NCR docs, and has
been running on my system for weeks with no problem. It does improve the
quality of diagnostic messages and does allow to better understand the
sequence of events in case of an error.
This should go into 2.2 and 2.1.6.
This fixes several bugs and one missing feature:
- cluster_read() was needlessly used for reading files of size exactly 1
block.
- EFAULT errors for read didn't terminate the loop. This was probably
harmless.
- IO_VMIO handling was missing near line 275. I don't know what this does.
- B_CLUSTEROK was only set if (doclusterwrite) nead line 293. This was
harmless, if only because another bug prevents doclusterwrite from being
0.
- MNT_NOATIME wasn't implemented.
This should be in 2.2, of course.

existing mechanism uses a global queue for some buffers and the
vp->b_dirtyblkhd queue for others. This turns sequential writes into
randomly ordered writes to the server, affecting both read and write
performance. The existing mechanism also copes badly with hung
servers, tending to block accesses to other servers when all the iods
are waiting for a hung server.
The new mechanism uses a queue for each mount point. All asynchronous
i/o goes through this queue which preserves the ordering of requests.
A simple mechanism ensures that the iods are shared out fairly between
active mount points. This removes the sysctl variable vfs.nfs.dwrite
since the new queueing mechanism removes the old delayed write code
completely.
This should go into the 2.2 branch.

Fix some problems with the new sync and wide negotiation code. First off,
go back to async transfers by using a message reject again. The SCSI II and
III spec indicate that if a target's response to an initiater does not suit
(i.e. its too low), then performing a message reject is the appropriate
response. If, on the other hand, the initiator begins the negotiation and
we want to go async, we will send back an SDTR message with a 0 period and
offset.
Also fix a really bad negotiation problem caused by a missing "break". This
would usually hit people that had "smart" wide devices that immediately
attempt sync negotiation after a successful wide negotiation.

1. When a directory is renamed to an existing (empty) directory,
it is possible for the target vnode to become the source vnode
underneath you (because another process may complete the same
rename). It was assumed that this can't happen, and the bogus
errno EINVAL was returned. This was fairly harmless.
Fix: return ENOENT instead, as if the source directory was renamed
a little earlier.
2. The same metamorphosis is possible for non-directories. It was
assumed that this can't happen, and the code for handling "just
removing a link name" happened to be used. This would have worked
except for fatal bugs in the link name removal - the link name was
assumed to still be there, and a null pointer was followed.
Fix: check the result of relookup(). This fixes PR 1930.
Notes:
(a) POSIX seems to say that removing link names shall have no effect.
BSD (4.4Lite2 at least) does something reasonable instead.
(b) The relookup() may find a file unrelated to the original.
Removing this isn't correct. Consider 3 existing files A, B and
C, and concurrent renames: AB = rename(A, B), another AB, and
CA = rename("c", "a"). If rename() is atomic, then only the
following results are possible:
AB, AB (fails), CA: A = original C, B = original A, C = gone
AB, CA, AB: A = gone, B = original C, C = gone
CA, AB, AB (fails): A = gone, B = original C, C = gone
but ufs_rename() can give:
A,AB,CA,B (sorta): A = gone, B = original A, C = gone
This usually doesn't matter, since getting into a race is usually
an error.

quick unmap code not respecting the wired-ness of pages in the

intrinsic to the design of the code that wired pages actually

of a missing page.
