These diffs implement the first stage of a VOP_{GET|PUT}PAGES pushdown
for local media FS's.
See ffs_putpages in /sys/ufs/ufs/ufs_readwrite.c for implementation
details for generic *_{get|put}pages for local media FS's. Support
is trivial to add for any FS that formerly relied on the default
behaviour of the vnode_pager in in EOPNOTSUPP cases (just copy the
ffs_getpages() code for the FS in question's *_{get|put}pages).
Obviously, it would be better if each local media FS implemented a
more optimal method, instead of calling an exported interface from
the /sys/vm/vnode_pager.c, but this is a necessary first step in
getting the FS's to a point where they can be supplied with better
implementations on a case-by-case basis.
Obviously, the cd9660_putpages() can be rather trivial (since it
is a read-only FS type 8-)).
A slight (temporary) modification is made to print a diagnostic message
in the case where the underlying filesystem attempts to engage in the
previous behaviour. Failure is likely to be ungraceful.

original BSD code. The association between the vnode and the vm_object
no longer includes reference counts. The major difference is that
vm_object's are no longer freed gratuitiously from the vnode, and so
once an object is created for the vnode, it will last as long as the
vnode does.
When a vnode object reference count is incremented, then the underlying
vnode reference count is incremented also. The two "objects" are now
more intimately related, and so the interactions are now much less
complex.
When vnodes are now normally placed onto the free queue with an object still
attached. The rundown of the object happens at vnode rundown time, and
happens with exactly the same filesystem semantics of the original VFS
code. There is absolutely no need for vnode_pager_uncache and other
travesties like that anymore.
A side-effect of these changes is that SMP locking should be much simpler,
the I/O copyin/copyout optimizations work, NFS should be more ponderable,
and further work on layered filesystems should be less frustrating, because
of the totally coherent management of the vnode objects and vnodes.
Please be careful with your system while running this code, but I would
greatly appreciate feedback as soon a reasonably possible.
1. Remove VOP_UPDATE, it is (also) an UFS/{FFS,LFS,EXT2FS,MFS}
intereface function, and now lives in the ufsmount structure.
2. Remove VOP_SEEK, it was unused.
3. Add mode default vops:
VOP_ADVLOCK vop_einval
VOP_CLOSE vop_null
VOP_FSYNC vop_null
VOP_IOCTL vop_enotty
VOP_MMAP vop_einval
VOP_OPEN vop_null
VOP_PATHCONF vop_einval
VOP_READLINK vop_einval
VOP_REALLOCBLKS vop_eopnotsupp
And remove identical functionality from filesystems
4. Add vop_stdpathconf, which returns the canonical stuff. Use
it in the filesystems. (XXX: It's probably wrong that specfs
and fifofs sets this vop, shouldn't it come from the "host"
filesystem, for instance ufs or cd9660 ?)
5. Try to make system wide VOP functions have vop_* names.
6. Initialize the um_* vectors in LFS.
(Recompile your LKMS!!!)
1. Add new file "sys/kern/vfs_default.c" where default actions for
VOPs go. Implement proper defaults for ABORTOP, BWRITE, LEASE,
POLL, REVOKE and STRATEGY. Various stuff spread over the entire
tree belongs here.
2. Change VOP_BLKATOFF to a normal function in cd9660.
3. Kill VOP_BLKATOFF, VOP_TRUNCATE, VOP_VFREE, VOP_VALLOC. These
are private interface functions between UFS and the underlying
storage manager layer (FFS/LFS/MFS/EXT2FS). The functions now
live in struct ufsmount instead.
4. Remove a kludge of VOP_ functions in all filesystems, that did
nothing but obscure the simplicity and break the expandability.
If a filesystem doesn't implement VOP_FOO, it shouldn't have an
entry for it in its vnops table. The system will try to DTRT
if it is not implemented. There are still some cruft left, but
the bulk of it is done.
5. Fix another VCALL in vfs_cache.c (thanks Bruce!)
1. Use the default function to access all the specfs operations.
2. Use the default function to access all the fifofs operations.
3. Use the default function to access all the ufs operations.
4. Fix VCALL usage in vfs_cache.c
5. Use VOCALL to access specfs functions in devfs_vnops.c
6. Staticize most of the spec and fifofs vnops functions.
7. Make UFS panic if it lacks bits of the underlying storage handling.
1. Remove comment stating the blatantly obvious.
2. Align in two columns.
3. Sort all but the default element alphabetically.
4. Remove XXX comments pointing out entries not needed.
1. Clustered I/O is switched by the MNT_NOCLUSTERR and MNT_NOCLUSTERW
bits of the mnt_flag. The sysctl variables, vfs.foo.doclusterread
and vfs.foo.doclusterwrite are deleted. Only mount option can
control clustered I/O from userland.
2. When foofs_mount mounts block device, foofs_mount checks D_CLUSTERR
and D_CLUSTERW bits of the d_flags member in the block device switch
table. If D_NOCLUSTERR / D_NOCLUSTERW are set, MNT_NOCLUSTERR /
MNT_NOCLUSTERW bits will be set. In this case, MNT_NOCLUSTERR and
MNT_NOCLUSTERW cannot be cleared from userland.
3. Vnode driver disables both clustered read and write.
4. Union filesystem disables clutered write.

This unifies several times in theory indentical 50 lines of code.
The filesystems have a new method: vop_cachedlookup, which is the
meat of the lookup, and use vfs_cache_lookup() for their vop_lookup
method. vfs_cache_lookup() will check the namecache and pass on
to the vop_cachedlookup method in case of a miss.
It's still the task of the individual filesystems to populate the
namecache with cache_enter().
Filesystems that do not use the namecache will just provide the
vop_lookup method as usual.

This change is null for the i386.
The type has to be `typedef int vop_t(void *)' and not `typedef
int vop_t()' because `gcc -Wstrict-prototypes' warns about the
latter. Since vnode op functions are called with args of different
(struct pointer) types, neither of these function types is any use
for type checking of the arg, so it would be preferable not to use
the complete function type, especially since using the complete
type requires adding 1138 casts to avoid compiler warnings and
another 40+ casts to reverse the function pointer conversions before
calling the functions.
1) Files weren't properly synced on filesystems other than UFS. In some
cases, this lead to lost data. Most likely would be noticed on NFS.
The fix is to make the VM page sync/object_clean general rather than
in each filesystem.
2) Mixing regular and mmaped file I/O on NFS was very broken. It caused
chunks of files to end up as zeroes rather than the intended contents.
The fix was to fix several race conditions and to kludge up the
"b_dirtyoff" and "b_dirtyend" that NFS relies upon - paying attention
to page modifications that occurred via the mmapping.

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

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

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