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.

POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED). The most broken case was for applications that
advise for the whole file and then do block-aligned i/o's 1 block at
a time. Then advice is sent to VOP_ADVISE() 1 block at a time, but
in vop_stdadvise() the 1-block advice was turned into 0-block advice
for the buffer cache part.
The bugs were caused partly by callers representing the region as
(a_start, a_end), where a_end is actually the maximum, and everything
else representing the region as (start, end) where 'end' is actually
the end (1 after the maximum). The maximum a_end must be rounded up,
but was rounded down. Also, rounding to page boundaries was inconsistent.
The bugs and fixes have no effect for zfs and other file systems that
don't use the buffer cache or the page cache. Most or all file systems
currently use the default VOP_FADVISE(), but it finds a null buffer cache
and a null page cache for file systems that don't use normal methods.

On the one hand, FIFOs should respect other variables not supported by
the fifofs vnode operation (such as _PC_NAME_MAX, _PC_LINK_MAX, etc.).
These values are fs-specific and must come from a fs-specific method.
On the other hand, filesystems that support FIFOs are required to
support _PC_PIPE_BUF on directory vnodes that can contain FIFOs.
Given this latter requirement, once the fs-specific VOP_PATHCONF
method supports _PC_PIPE_BUF for directories, it is also suitable for
FIFOs permitting a single VOP_PATHCONF method to be used for both
FIFOs and non-FIFOs.
To that end, retire all of the FIFO-specific pathconf methods from
filesystems and change FIFO-specific vnode operation switches to use
the existing fs-specific VOP_PATHCONF method. For fifofs, set it's
VOP_PATHCONF to VOP_PANIC since it should no longer be used.
While here, move _PC_PIPE_BUF handling out of vop_stdpathconf() so that
only filesystems supporting FIFOs will report a value. In addition,

Such arrayed requests for now should be preceeded by a call to

This affects the implementation of POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE as well, since it
works by applying POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED to file ranges after they have been
read or written. At that point the corresponding buffers may still be
dirty, so the previous implementation would coalesce successive ranges and
apply POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED to the result, ensuring that pages backing the
dirty buffers would eventually be cached. To preserve this behaviour in an
efficient manner, this change adds a new buf flag, B_NOREUSE, which causes
the pages backing a VMIO buf to be placed at the head of the inactive queue

The change is mostly mechanical but few notes are reported:
* The KPI changes as follow:
- VM_OBJECT_LOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_TRYLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_TRYWLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_UNLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WUNLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_LOCK_ASSERT(MA_OWNED) -> VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_WLOCKED()
(in order to avoid visibility of implementation details)
- The read-mode operations are added:
VM_OBJECT_RLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_TRYRLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_RUNLOCK(),
VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_RLOCKED(), VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_LOCKED()
* The vm/vm_pager.h namespace pollution avoidance (forcing requiring
sys/mutex.h in consumers directly to cater its inlining functions
using VM_OBJECT_LOCK()) imposes that all the vm/vm_pager.h
consumers now must include also sys/rwlock.h.
* zfs requires a quite convoluted fix to include FreeBSD rwlocks into
the compat layer because the name clash between FreeBSD and solaris
versions must be avoided.
At this purpose zfs redefines the vm_object locking functions
directly, isolating the FreeBSD components in specific compat stubs.
The KPI results heavilly broken by this commit. Thirdy part ports must
be updated accordingly (I can think off-hand of VirtualBox, for example).

Just as with madvise(2), the advice given to posix_fadvise(2) can be
divided into two types. The first type provide hints about data access
patterns and are used in the file read and write routines to modify the
I/O flags passed down to VOP_READ() and VOP_WRITE(). These modes are
thus filesystem independent. Note that to ease implementation (and
since this API is only advisory anyway), only a single non-normal
range is allowed per file descriptor.
The second type of hints are used to hint to the OS that data will or
will not be used. These hints are implemented via a new VOP_ADVISE().
A default implementation is provided which does nothing for the WILLNEED
request and attempts to move any clean pages to the cache page queue for
the DONTNEED request. This latter case required two other changes.
First, a new V_CLEANONLY flag was added to vinvalbuf(). This requests
vinvalbuf() to only flush clean buffers for the vnode from the buffer
cache and to not remove any backing pages from the vnode. This is
used to ensure clean pages are not wired into the buffer cache before
attempting to move them to the cache page queue. The second change adds
a new vm_object_page_cache() method. This method is somewhat similar to
vm_object_page_remove() except that instead of freeing each page in the
specified range, it attempts to move clean pages to the cache queue if
possible.
