The current vnode layout is not smp-friendly by having frequently read data
avoidably sharing cachelines with very frequently modified fields. In
particular v_iflag inspected for VI_DOOMED can be found in the same line with
v_usecount. Instead make it available in the same cacheline as the v_op, v_data
and v_type which all get read all the time.
v_type is avoidably 4 bytes while the necessary data will easily fit in 1.
Shrinking it frees up 3 bytes, 2 of which get used here to introduce a new
flag field with a new value: VIRF_DOOMED.

vnode usecount drops to 0 all the time (e.g. for directories during path lookup).
When that happens the kernel would always lock the exclusive lock for the vnode
in order to call vinactive(). This blocks other threads who want to use the vnode
for looukp.
vinactive is very rarely needed and can be tested for without the vnode lock held.

kern_execve() locks text vnode exclusive to be able to set and clear
VV_TEXT flag. VV_TEXT is mutually exclusive with the v_writecount > 0
condition.
The change removes VV_TEXT, replacing it with the condition
v_writecount <= -1, and puts v_writecount under the vnode interlock.
Each text reference decrements v_writecount. To clear the text
reference when the segment is unmapped, it is recorded in the
vm_map_entry backed by the text file as MAP_ENTRY_VN_TEXT flag, and
v_writecount is incremented on the map entry removal
The operations like VOP_ADD_WRITECOUNT() and VOP_SET_TEXT() check that
v_writecount does not contradict the desired change. vn_writecheck()
is now racy and its use was eliminated everywhere except access.
Atomic check for writeability and increment of v_writecount is
performed by the VOP. vn_truncate() now increments v_writecount
around VOP_SETATTR() call, lack of which is arguably a bug on its own.
nullfs bypasses v_writecount to the lower vnode always, so nullfs
vnode has its own v_writecount correct, and lower vnode gets all
references, since object->handle is always lower vnode.
On the text vnode' vm object dealloc, the v_writecount value is reset
to zero, and deadfs vop_unset_text short-circuit the operation.
Reclamation of lowervp always reclaims all nullfs vnodes referencing
lowervp first, so no stray references are left.

nullfs vnode shares vnode lock with lower vnode, this allows the
reclamation of nullfs directory vnode in null_lookup(). In this
situation, VOP must return ENOENT.
More, since after the reclamation, the locks of nullfs directory vnode
and lower vnode are no longer shared, the relock of the ldvp does not
restore the correct locking state of dvp, and leaks ldvp lock.
Correct this by unlocking ldvp and locking dvp.

It should be innocent, but now it is also formally safe. Inform the

nullfs inode.
- Add a callback to the upper filesystems for the lower vnode
unlinking. When inactivating a nullfs vnode, check if the lower
vnode was unlinked, indicated by nullfs flag NULLV_DROP or VV_NOSYNC
on the lower vnode, and reclaim upper vnode if so. This allows
nullfs to purge cached vnodes for the unlinked lower vnode, avoiding

was still possible to open for write from the lower filesystem. There
is a symmetric situation where the binary could already has file
descriptors opened for write, but it can be executed from the nullfs
overlay.
Handle the issue by passing one v_writecount reference to the lower
vnode if nullfs vnode has non-zero v_writecount. Note that only one
write reference can be donated, since nullfs only keeps one use
reference on the lower vnode. Always use the lower vnode v_writecount
for the checks.
Introduce the VOP_GET_WRITECOUNT to read v_writecount, which is
currently always bypassed to the lower vnode, and VOP_ADD_WRITECOUNT
to manipulate the v_writecount value, which manages a single bypass
reference to the lower vnode. Caling the VOPs instead of directly
accessing v_writecount provide the fix described in the previous

it. There are two problems which shall be addressed for shared
lookups use to have measurable effect on nullfs scalability:
1. When vfs_lookup() calls VOP_LOOKUP() for nullfs, which passes lookup
operation to lower fs, resulting vnode is often only shared-locked. Then
null_nodeget() cannot instantiate covering vnode for lower vnode, since
insmntque1() and null_hashins() require exclusive lock on the lower.
Change the assert that lower vnode is exclusively locked to only
require any lock. If null hash failed to find pre-existing nullfs
vnode for lower vnode and the vnode is shared-locked, the lower vnode
lock is upgraded.
2. Nullfs reclaims its vnodes on deactivation. This is due to nullfs
inability to detect reclamation of the lower vnode. Reclamation of a
nullfs vnode at deactivation time prevents a reference to the lower
vnode to become stale.
Change nullfs VOP_INACTIVE to not reclaim the vnode, instead use the
VFS_RECLAIM_LOWERVP to get notification and reclaim upper vnode
together with the reclamation of the lower vnode.
Note that nullfs reclamation procedure calls vput() on the lowervp
vnode, temporary unlocking the vnode being reclaimed. This seems to be
fine for MPSAFE filesystems, but not-MPSAFE code often put partially
initialized vnode on some globally visible list, and later can decide
that half-constructed vnode is not needed. If nullfs mount is created
above such filesystem, then other threads might catch such not
properly initialized vnode. Instead of trying to overcome this case,
e.g. by recursing the lower vnode lock in null_reclaim_lowervp(), I
decided to rely on nearby removal of the support for non-MPSAFE
filesystems.

nullfs. The problem is that resulting vnode is only required to be
held on return from the successfull call to vop, instead of being
referenced.
Nullfs VOP_INACTIVE() method reclaims the vnode, which in combination
with the VOP_VPTOCNP() interface means that the directory vnode
returned from VOP_VPTOCNP() is reclaimed in advance, causing
vn_fullpath() to error with EBADF or like.
Change the interface for VOP_VPTOCNP(), now the dvp must be
referenced. Convert all in-tree implementations of VOP_VPTOCNP(),
which is trivial, because vhold(9) and vref(9) are similar in the
locking prerequisites. Out-of-tree fs implementation of VOP_VPTOCNP(),
if any, should have no trouble with the fix.

the upper level vnode's v_usecount is greater than one. This
is necessary for the NFS clients, so that they will do a silly
rename of the file instead of actually removing it when the
file is still in use. It is "racy", since the v_usecount is
incremented in many places in the kernel with
minimal synchronization, but an extraneous silly rename is
preferred to not doing a silly rename when it is required.
The only other file systems that currently check the value
of v_usecount in their VOP_REMOVE() functions are nwfs and

v_usecount is greater than 1 and I believe will function
