due to the vm object being locked.
When a process writes large amounts of data to a file, the vm object associated
with that file can contain most of the physical pages on the machine. If the
process is preempted while holding the lock on the vm object, pagedaemon would
be able to move very few pages from PQ_INACTIVE to PQ_CACHE or from PQ_ACTIVE
to PQ_INACTIVE, resulting in unlimited cleaning of dirty pages belonging to
other vm objects.
Temporarily unlock the page queues lock while locking vm objects to avoid lock
order violation. Detect and handle relevant page queue changes.
This change depends on both the lock portion of struct vm_object and normal
struct vm_page being type stable.

to atomically return either an existing set of IP multicast options for the
PCB, or a newlly allocated set with default values. The inpcb is returned
locked. This function may sleep.
Call ip_moptions() to acquire a reference to a PCB's socket options, and
perform the update of the options while holding the PCB lock. Release the
lock before returning.
Remove garbage collection of multicast options when values return to the
default, as this complicates locking substantially. Most applications
allocate a socket either to be multicast, or not, and don't tend to keep
around sockets that have previously been used for multicast, then used for
unicast.
This closes a number of race conditions involving multiple threads or
processes modifying the IP multicast state of a socket simultaenously.

Not all device drivers and network stack components currently follow

ifnet.if_drv_flags. Device drivers are now responsible for
synchronizing access to these flags, as they are in if_drv_flags. This
helps prevent races between the network stack and device driver in
maintaining the interface flags field.
Many __FreeBSD__ and __FreeBSD_version checks maintained and continued;
some less so.

and move both flags from ifnet.if_flags to ifnet.if_drv_flags, making
and documenting the locking of these flags the responsibility of the
device driver, not the network stack. The flags for these two fields
will be mutually exclusive so that they can be exposed to user space as
though they were stored in the same variable.
Provide #defines to provide the old names #ifndef _KERNEL, so that user
applications (such as ifconfig) can use the old flag names. Using the
old names in a device driver will result in a compile error in order to
help device driver writers adopt the new model.
When exposing the interface flags to user space, via interface ioctls
or routing sockets, or the two fields together. Since the driver flags
cannot currently be set for user space, no new logic is currently
required to handle this case.
Add some assertions that general purpose network stack routines, such
as if_setflags(), are not improperly used on driver-owned flags.
With this change, a large number of very minor network stack races are
closed, subject to correct device driver locking. Most were likely
never triggered.
Driver sweep to follow; many thanks to pjd and bz for the line-by-line

fast, lightweight, and generally good way for users to keep their
ports trees up to date.
This is version 0.9.4 from the ports tree (sysutils/portsnap) with
the following changes:
1. The experimental pipelined http code is enabled. No seatbelts
in -CURRENT. (^_^)
2. The working directory has moved from /usr/local/portsnap to
/var/db/portsnap (as discussed on -arch two days ago).
3. Portsnap now fetches a list of mirrors (distributed as DNS SRV
records) and selects one randomly. This should help to avoid the
uneven loading which plagues the cvsup mirror network.
4. The license is now 2-clause BSD instead of 3-clause BSD.
5. Various incidental changes to make portsnap fit into the base
system's build mechanics.
