flag is only passed when faulting on the wired map entry. Remove the
vm_page_unwire() call, which should be never reachable.
Since VM_FAULT_WIRE flag implies wired map entry, the TRYPAGER() macro
is reduced to the testing of the fs.object having a default pager.

FreeBSD provides a feature called Adaptive Mutexes, which allows
a thread to spin for a while when the mutex is taken instead of
immediately going to sleep. This causes issues when called from
syscall handler if interrupts are masked. If every other core
also attempts to access the same mutex there is a chance that
all of them are spinning on the same lock at the same time.
If interrupts are disabled, no kernel preemtion can occur and
the system becomes unresponsive.
This patch enables interrupts when syscall is being executed
and masks them as soon as it is completed.

removing this from loader.conf and measuring the performance impact on

the blkfront driver to perform I/Os of up to 2 MB, subject to support from
the blkback to which it is connected and the initiation of such large I/Os
by the rest of the kernel. In practice, the I/O size is increased from 40 kB
to 128 kB.
The changes to xen/interface/io/blkif.h consist merely of merging updates
from the upstream Xen repository.
In dev/xen/blkfront/block.h we add some convenience macros and structure
fields used for indirect-page I/Os: The device records its negotiated limit
on the number of indirect pages used, while each I/O command structure gains
permanently allocated page(s) for indirect page references and the Xen grant
references for those pages.
In dev/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c we now check in xbd_queue_cb whether a request
is small enough to handle without an indirection page, and either follow the
previous behaviour or use new code for issuing an indirect segment I/O. In
xbd_connect we read the size of indirect segment I/Os supported by the backend
and select the maximum size we will use; then allocate the pages and Xen grant
references for each I/O command structure. In xbd_free those grants and pages
are released.
A new loader tunable, hw.xbd.xbd_enable_indirect, can be set to 0 in order to
disable this functionality; it works by pretending that the backend does not
support this feature. Some backends exhibit a loss of performance with large
I/Os, so users may wish to test with and without this functionality enabled.

When firewalls force a reloop of packets and the caller supplied a route the reference to the route might be reduced twice creating issues.
This is especially the scenario when a packet is looped because of operation in the firewall but the new route lookup gives a down route.

Summary:
Pipes in CloudABI are unidirectional. The reason for this is that
CloudABI attempts to provide a uniform runtime environment across
different flavours of UNIX.
Instead of implementing a custom pipe that is unidirectional, we can
simply reuse Capsicum permission bits to support this. This is nice,
because CloudABI already attempts to restrict permission bits to
correspond with the operations that apply to a certain file descriptor.
Replace kern_pipe() and kern_pipe2() by a single kern_pipe() that takes
a pair of filecaps. These filecaps are passed to the newly introduced
falloc_caps() function that creates the descriptors with rights in
place.
Test Plan:
CloudABI pipes seem to be created with proper rights in place:

And it is safe to use mtod() and do direct access to needed fields.
Add M_ASSERTPKTHDR() to gif_encapcheck(), since the code expects that
mbuf has a packet header.
Move the code from gif_validate[46] into in[6]_gif_encapcheck(), also
remove "martian filters" checks. According to RFC 4213 it is enough to
verify that the source address is the address of the encapsulator, as
configured on the decapsulator.
