Currently we use a single bit to indicate whether the virtual page is
part of a superpage. To support a forthcoming implementation of
non-transparent 1GB superpages, it is useful to provide more detailed
information about large page sizes.
The change converts MINCORE_SUPER into a mask for MINCORE_PSIND(psind)
values, indicating a mapping of size psind, where psind is an index into
the pagesizes array returned by getpagesizes(3), which in turn comes
from the hw.pagesizes sysctl. MINCORE_PSIND(1) is equal to the old
value of MINCORE_SUPER.
For now, two bits are used to record the page size, permitting values
of MAXPAGESIZES up to 4.

Linux mmap rejects mmap() on a write-only file with EACCES.
linux_mmap_common currently does a fun dance to grab the fp associated with
the passed in fd, validates it, then drops the reference and calls into
kern_mmap(). Doing so is perhaps both fragile and premature; there's still
plenty of chance for the request to get rejected with a more appropriate
error, and it's prone to a race where the file we ultimately mmap has
changed after it drops its referenced.
This change alleviates the need to do this by providing a kern_mmap variant
that allows the caller to inspect the fp just before calling into the fileop
layer. The callback takes flags, prot, and maxprot as one could imagine
scenarios where any of these, in conjunction with the file itself, may
influence a caller's decision.
The file type check in the linux compat layer has been removed; EINVAL is
seemingly not an appropriate response to the file not being a vnode or
device. The fileop layer will reject the operation with ENODEV if it's not
supported, which more closely matches the common linux description of
mmap(2) return values.
If we discover that we're allowing an mmap() on a file type that Linux
normally wouldn't, we should restrict those explicitly.

Currently writemapping accounting is only done for vnode_pager which does

Extend this to allow accounting to be possible for any of the pager types.
New pageops are added to update/release writecount that need to be
implemented for any pager wishing to do said accounting, and we implement
these methods now for both vnode_pager (unchanged) and swap_pager.
The primary motivation for this is to allow other systems with OBJT_SWAP

operations with EBUSY if so. posixshm will be the first to do so in order to
reject adding write seals to the shmfd if any writable mappings exist.

A new macro PROT_MAX() alters a protection value so it can be OR'd with
a regular protection value to specify the maximum permissions. If
present, these flags specify the maximum permissions.
While these flags are non-portable, they can be used in portable code
with simple ifdefs to expand PROT_MAX() to 0.
This change allows (e.g.) a region that must be writable during run-time
linking or JIT code generation to be made permanently read+execute after
writes are complete. This complements W^X protections allowing more
precise control by the programmer.
This change alters mprotect argument checking and returns an error when
unhandled protection flags are set. This differs from POSIX (in that
POSIX only specifies an error), but is the documented behavior on Linux
and more closely matches historical mmap behavior.
In addition to explicit setting of the maximum permissions, an
experimental sysctl vm.imply_prot_max causes mmap to assume that the
initial permissions requested should be the maximum when the sysctl is
set to 1. PROT_NONE mappings are excluded from this for compatibility
with rtld and other consumers that use such mappings to reserve
address space before mapping contents into part of the reservation. A
final version this is expected to provide per-binary and per-process
opt-in/out options and this sysctl will go away in its current form.
As such it is undocumented.

Historically we have not distinguished between kernel wirings and user
wirings for accounting purposes. User wirings (via mlock(2)) were
subject to a global limit on the number of wired pages, so if large
swaths of physical memory were wired by the kernel, as happens with
the ZFS ARC among other things, the limit could be exceeded, causing
user wirings to fail.
The change adds a new counter, v_user_wire_count, which counts the
number of virtual pages wired by user processes via mlock(2) and
mlockall(2). Only user-wired pages are subject to the system-wide
limit which helps provide some safety against deadlocks. In
particular, while sources of kernel wirings typically support some
backpressure mechanism, there is no way to reclaim user-wired pages
shorting of killing the wiring process. The limit is exported as
vm.max_user_wired, renamed from vm.max_wired, and changed from u_int
to u_long.
The choice to count virtual user-wired pages rather than physical
pages was done for simplicity. There are mechanisms that can cause
user-wired mappings to be destroyed while maintaining a wiring of
the backing physical page; these make it difficult to accurately
track user wirings at the physical page layer.
The change also closes some holes which allowed user wirings to succeed
even when they would cause the system limit to be exceeded. For
instance, mmap() may now fail with ENOMEM in a process that has called
mlockall(MCL_FUTURE) if the new mapping would cause the user wiring
limit to be exceeded.
Note that bhyve -S is subject to the user wiring limit, which defaults
to 1/3 of physical RAM. Users that wish to exceed the limit must tune
vm.max_user_wired.

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.

a hint.
Right now, for non-fixed mmap(2) calls, addr is de-facto interpreted
as the absolute minimal address of the range where the mapping is
created. The VA allocator only allocates in the range [addr,
VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS]. This is too restrictive, the mmap(2) call might
unduly fail if there is no free addresses above addr but a lot of
usable space below it.
Lift this implementation limitation by allocating VA in two passes.
First, try to allocate above addr, as before. If that fails, do the
second pass with less restrictive constraints for the start of
allocation by specifying minimal allocation address at the max bss
end, if this limit is less than addr.
One important case where this change makes a difference is the
allocation of the stacks for new threads in libthr. Under some
configuration conditions, libthr tries to hint kernel to reuse the
main thread stack grow area for the new stacks. This cannot work by
design now after grow area is converted to stack, and there is no
unallocated VA above the main stack. Interpreting requested stack
base address as the hint provides compatibility with old libthr and
with (mis-)configured current libthr.
