the "nbufkv" sleep.
First, ffs background cg group block write requests a new buffer for
the shadow copy. When ffs_bufwrite() is called from the bufdaemon due
to buffers shortage, requesting the buffer deadlock bufdaemon.
Introduce a new flag for getnewbuf(), GB_NOWAIT_BD, to request getblk
to not block while allocating the buffer, and return failure
instead. Add a flag argument to the geteblk to allow to pass the flags
to getblk(). Do not repeat the getnewbuf() call from geteblk if buffer
allocation failed and either GB_NOWAIT_BD is specified, or geteblk()
is called from bufdaemon (or its helper, see below). In
ffs_bufwrite(), fall back to synchronous cg block write if shadow
block allocation failed.
Since r107847, buffer write assumes that vnode owning the buffer is
locked. The second problem is that buffer cache may accumulate many
buffers belonging to limited number of vnodes. With such workload,
quite often threads that own the mentioned vnodes locks are trying to
read another block from the vnodes, and, due to buffer cache
exhaustion, are asking bufdaemon for help. Bufdaemon is unable to make
any substantial progress because the vnodes are locked.
Allow the threads owning vnode locks to help the bufdaemon by doing
the flush pass over the buffer cache before getnewbuf() is going to
uninterruptible sleep. Move the flushing code from buf_daemon() to new
helper function buf_do_flush(), that is called from getnewbuf(). The
number of buffers flushed by single call to buf_do_flush() from
getnewbuf() is limited by new sysctl vfs.flushbufqtarget. Prevent
recursive calls to buf_do_flush() by marking the bufdaemon and threads
that temporarily help bufdaemon by TDP_BUFNEED flag.

Currently this is used to enable shared locks for open() and close() of
read-only file descriptors.
- When an ISOPEN namei() request is performed with LOCKSHARED, use a
shared vnode lock for the leaf vnode only if the mount point has the
extended shared flag set.
- Set LOCKSHARED in vn_open_cred() for requests that specify O_RDONLY but
not O_CREAT.
- Use a shared vnode lock around VOP_CLOSE() if the file was opened with
O_RDONLY and the mountpoint has the extended shared flag set.
- Adjust md(4) to upgrade the vnode lock on the vnode it gets back from
vn_open() since it now may only have a shared vnode lock.
- Don't enable shared vnode locks on FIFO vnodes in ZFS and UFS since
FIFO's require exclusive vnode locks for their open() and close()
routines. (My recent MPSAFE patches for UDF and cd9660 already included
this change.)

during a DELETE lookup operation, lookup would cache the length of the
directory entry to be deleted in 'i_reclen'. Later, the actual VOP to
remove the directory entry (ufs_remove, ufs_rename, etc.) would call
ufs_dirremove() which extended the length of the previous directory
entry to "remove" the deleted entry.
However, we always read the entire block containing the directory
entry when doing the removal, so we always have the directory entry to
be deleted in-memory when doing the update to the directory block.
Also, we already have to figure out where the directory entry that is
being removed is in the block so that we can pass the component name
to the dirhash code to update the dirhash. So, instead of passing
'i_reclen' from ufs_lookup() to the ufs_dirremove() routine, just read
the 'd_reclen' field directly out of the entry being removed when
updating the length of the previous entry in the block.
This avoids a cosmetic issue of writing to 'i_reclen' while holding a
shared vnode lock. It also slightly reduces the amount of side-band

currently only these 2 mappers live.
The patch drops the support for WITNESS atm, but it will be probabilly

also present in the current CVS stock implementation: if some sharers,
once they wakeup, are in the runqueue they can contend the lock with
the exclusive drainer. This is hard to be fixed but the now committed

In addition assertive KA_HELD and KA_UNHELD have been made mute

Kernel ABI results heavilly changed by this commit (the now committed

user-mode lock manager, build a kernel with the NFSLOCKD option and
add '-k' to 'rpc_lockd_flags' in rc.conf.
Highlights include:
* Thread-safe kernel RPC client - many threads can use the same RPC
client handle safely with replies being de-multiplexed at the socket
upcall (typically driven directly by the NIC interrupt) and handed
off to whichever thread matches the reply. For UDP sockets, many RPC
clients can share the same socket. This allows the use of a single
privileged UDP port number to talk to an arbitrary number of remote
hosts.
* Single-threaded kernel RPC server. Adding support for multi-threaded
server would be relatively straightforward and would follow
approximately the Solaris KPI. A single thread should be sufficient
for the NLM since it should rarely block in normal operation.
* Kernel mode NLM server supporting cancel requests and granted
callbacks. I've tested the NLM server reasonably extensively - it
passes both my own tests and the NFS Connectathon locking tests
running on Solaris, Mac OS X and Ubuntu Linux.
* Userland NLM client supported. While the NLM server doesn't have
support for the local NFS client's locking needs, it does have to
field async replies and granted callbacks from remote NLMs that the
local client has contacted. We relay these replies to the userland
rpc.lockd over a local domain RPC socket.
* Robust deadlock detection for the local lock manager. In particular
it will detect deadlocks caused by a lock request that covers more
than one blocking request. As required by the NLM protocol, all
deadlock detection happens synchronously - a user is guaranteed that
if a lock request isn't rejected immediately, the lock will
eventually be granted. The old system allowed for a 'deferred
deadlock' condition where a blocked lock request could wake up and
find that some other deadlock-causing lock owner had beaten them to
the lock.
* Since both local and remote locks are managed by the same kernel
locking code, local and remote processes can safely use file locks
for mutual exclusion. Local processes have no fairness advantage
compared to remote processes when contending to lock a region that
has just been unlocked - the local lock manager enforces a strict
first-come first-served model for both local and remote lockers.

It is normally initialized by ffs_statfs() after ffs_mount finished.
The extattr autostart code calls the ufs_lookup(), that uses value above
to iterate over the directory blocks, see bmask initialization in the
ufs_lookup() and ufsdirhash. Having the filesystem with root directory
spanning more then one block would result in reading a random kernel
memory.

namespace in order to handle lockmgr fields in a controlled way instead
than spreading all around bogus stubs:
- VN_LOCK_AREC() allows lock recursion for a specified vnode
- VN_LOCK_ASHARE() allows lock sharing for a specified vnode
In FFS land:
- BUF_AREC() allows lock recursion for a specified buffer lock
- BUF_NOREC() disallows recursion for a specified buffer lock
Side note: union_subr.c::unionfs_node_update() is the only other function
directly handling lockmgr fields. As this is not simple to fix, it has
been left behind as "sole" exception.

- Use lockmgr_args() in order to implement BUF_TIMELOCK()
- Cleanup BUF_LOCK()
- Remove LK_INTERNAL as it is nomore used in the lockmgr namespace

- Remove the "thread" argument from the lockmgr() function as it is
always curthread now
- Axe lockcount() function as it is no longer used
- Axe LOCKMGR_ASSERT() as it is bogus really and no currently used.
Hopefully this will be soonly replaced by something suitable for it.
- Remove the prototype for dumplockinfo() as the function is no longer
present
Addictionally:
- Introduce a KASSERT() in lockstatus() in order to let it accept only
curthread or NULL as they should only be passed
- Do a little bit of style(9) cleanup on lockmgr.h
KPI results heavilly broken by this change, so manpages and
FreeBSD_version will be modified accordingly by further commits.

lockmgr lkp, when held in exclusive mode, is recursed
- Introduce the function BUF_RECURSED() which does the same for bufobj
locks based on the top of lockmgr_recursed()
- Introduce the function BUF_ISLOCKED() which works like the counterpart
VOP_ISLOCKED(9), showing the state of lockmgr linked with the bufobj
BUF_RECURSED() and BUF_ISLOCKED() entirely replace the usage of bogus
BUF_REFCNT() in a more explicative and SMP-compliant way.
This allows us to axe out BUF_REFCNT() and leaving the function
lockcount() totally unused in our stock kernel. Further commits will
axe lockcount() as well as part of lockmgr() cleanup.
KPI results, obviously, broken so further commits will update manpages
and freebsd version.

Remove the unuseful extra-argument and pass explicitly curthread to lower

version bumping and manpage update will be further committed.

Remove this argument and pass curthread directly to underlying
VOP_LOCK1() VFS method. This modify makes the code cleaner and in
particular remove an annoying dependence helping next lockmgr() cleanup.
KPI results, obviously, changed.
Manpage and FreeBSD_version will be updated through further commits.
As a side note, would be valuable to say that next commits will address
a similar cleanup about VFS methods, in particular vop_lock1 and
vop_unlock.

Rearrange the recover code to do the ffs_blkfree() after the second
