94163ea283 Refactor the NFS over UDP retransmit timeout estimation logic to allow
the estimator to be more easily tuned and maintained.

There should be no functional change except there is now a lower limit
on the retransmit timeout to prevent the client from retransmitting
faster than the server's disks can fill requests, and an upper limit
to prevent the estimator from taking to long to retransmit during a
server outage.

cc3149b1ea Fix a serious deadlock with the NFS client. Given a large enough
atomic write request, it can fill the buffer cache with the entirety
of that write in order to handle retries.  However, it never drops
the vnode lock, or else it wouldn't be atomic, so it ends up waiting
indefinitely for more buf memory that cannot be gotten as it has it
all, and it waits in an uncancellable state.

To fix this, hibufspace is exported and scaled to a reasonable
fraction.  This is used as the limit of how much of an atomic write
request by the NFS client will be handled asynchronously.  If the
request is larger than this, it will be turned into a synchronous
request which won't deadlock the system.  It's possible this value is
far off from what is required by some, so it shall be tunable as soon
as mount_nfs(8) learns of the new field.

The slowdown between an asynchronous and a synchronous write on NFS
appears to be on the order of 2x-4x.

35ec46b7f2 Rewrite of the NFS client's reply handling. We now have NFS socket
upcalls which do RPC header parsing and match up the reply with the
request. NFS calls now sleep on the nfsreq structure. This enables
us to eliminate the NFS recvlock.

c713aaaeca NFS mobility PHASE I, II & III (phase VI, and V pending):
Rebind the client socket when we experience a timeout.  This fixes
the case where our IP changes for some reason.

Signal a VFS event when NFS transitions from up to down and vice
versa.

Add a placeholder vfs_sysctl where we will put status reporting
shortly.

Also:
Make down NFS mounts return EIO instead of EINTR when there is a
soft timeout or force unmount in progress.

9c4d63da6d o Make the credential used by socreate() an explicit argument to
socreate(), rather than getting it implicitly from the thread
  argument.

o Make NFS cache the credential provided at mount-time, and use
  the cached credential (nfsmount->nm_cred) when making calls to
  socreate() on initially connecting, or reconnecting the socket.

This fixes bugs involving NFS over TCP and ipfw uid/gid rules, as well
as bugs involving NFS and mandatory access control implementations.

c447342094 Change #ifdef KERNEL to #ifdef _KERNEL in the public headers. "KERNEL"
is an application space macro and the applications are supposed to be free
to use it as they please (but cannot).  This is consistant with the other
BSD's who made this change quite some time ago.  More commits to come.

7c1c33a7dd When using NFSv3, use the remote server's idea of the maximum file size
rather than assuming 2^64.  It may not like files that big. :-)
On the nfs server, calculate and report the max file size as the point
that the block numbers in the cache would turn negative.
(ie: 1099511627775 bytes (1TB)).

One of the things I'm worried about however, is that directory offsets
are really cookies on a NFSv3 server and can be rather large, especially
when/if the server generates the opaque directory cookies by using a local
filesystem offset in what comes out as the upper 32 bits of the 64 bit
cookie.  (a server is free to do this, it could save byte swapping
depending on the native 64 bit byte order)

fe6c0d4599 Allow control of the attribute cache timeouts at mount time.
We had run out of bits in the nfs mount flags, I have moved the internal
state flags into a seperate variable.  These are no longer visible via
statfs(), but I don't know of anything that looks at them.

57bf258e3d Fix all areas of the system (or at least all those in LINT) to avoid storing
socket addresses in mbufs.  (Socket buffers are the one exception.)  A number
of kernel APIs needed to get fixed in order to make this happen.  Also,
fix three protocol families which kept PCBs in mbufs to not malloc them
instead.  Delete some old compatibility cruft while we're at it, and add
some new routines in the in_cksum family.

f438ae02f5 Improve the queuing algorithms used by NFS' asynchronous i/o. The
existing mechanism uses a global queue for some buffers and the
vp->b_dirtyblkhd queue for others.  This turns sequential writes into
randomly ordered writes to the server, affecting both read and write
performance.  The existing mechanism also copes badly with hung
servers, tending to block accesses to other servers when all the iods
are waiting for a hung server.

The new mechanism uses a queue for each mount point.  All asynchronous
i/o goes through this queue which preserves the ordering of requests.
A simple mechanism ensures that the iods are shared out fairly between
active mount points.  This removes the sysctl variable vfs.nfs.dwrite
since the new queueing mechanism removes the old delayed write code
completely.

This should go into the 2.2 branch.

a62dc40654 Changes to support version 3 of the NFS protocol.
The version 2 support has been tested (client+server) against FreeBSD-2.0,
IRIX 5.3 and FreeBSD-current (using a loopback mount).  The version 2 support
is stable AFAIK.
The version 3 support has been tested with a loopback mount and minimally
against an IRIX 5.3 server.  It needs more testing and may have problems.
I have patched amd to support the new variable length filehandles although
it will still only use version 2 of the protocol.

Before booting a kernel with these changes, nfs clients will need to at least
build and install /usr/sbin/mount_nfs.  Servers will need to build and
install /usr/sbin/mountd.

NFS diskless support is untested.
