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.

Before this change we had two flavours of vm_domainset iterators: "page"
and "malloc". The latter was only used for kmem_*() and hard-coded its
behaviour based on kernel_object's policy. Moreover, its use contained
a race similar to that fixed by r338755 since the kernel_object's
iterator was being run without the object lock.
In some cases it is useful to be able to explicitly specify a policy
(domainset) or policy+iterator (domainset_ref) when performing memory
allocations. To that end, refactor the vm_dominset_* KPI to permit
this, and get rid of the "malloc" domainset_iter KPI in the process.

Currently both the page lock and a page queue lock must be held in
order to enqueue, dequeue or requeue a page in a given page queue.
The queue locks are a scalability bottleneck in many workloads. This
change reduces page queue lock contention by batching queue operations.
To detangle the page and page queue locks, per-CPU batch queues are
used to reference pages with pending queue operations. The requested
operation is encoded in the page's aflags field with the page lock
held, after which the page is enqueued for a deferred batch operation.
Page queue scans are similarly optimized to minimize the amount of
work performed with a page queue lock held.

Previously, wiring a page would cause it to be removed from its page
queue. In the common case, unwiring causes it to be enqueued at the tail
of that page queue. This change modifies vm_page_wire() to not dequeue
the page, thus avoiding the highly contended page queue locks. Instead,
vm_page_unwire() takes care of requeuing the page as a single operation,
and the page daemon dequeues wired pages as they are encountered during
a queue scan to avoid needlessly revisiting them later. For pages in
PQ_ACTIVE we do even better, since a requeue is unnecessary.
The change improves scalability for some common workloads. For instance,
threads wiring pages into the buffer cache no longer need to modify
global page queues, and unwiring is usually done by the bufspace thread,
so concurrency is not as much of an issue. As another example, many
sysctl handlers wire the output buffer to avoid faults on copyout, and
since the buffer is likely to be in PQ_ACTIVE, we now entirely avoid
modifying the page queue in this case.
The change also adds a block comment describing some properties of
struct vm_page's reference counters, and the busy lock.

It is possible, for complex fork()/collapse situations, to have
sibling address spaces to partially share shadow chains. If one
sibling performs wiring, it can happen that a transient page, invalid
and busy, is installed into a shadow object which is visible to other
sibling for the duration of vm_fault_hold(). When the backing object
contains the valid page, and the wiring is performed on read-only
entry, the transient page is eventually removed.
But the sibling which observed the transient page might perform the
unwire, executing vm_object_unwire(). There, the first page found in
the shadow chain is considered as the page that was wired for the
mapping. It is really the page below it which is wired. So we unwire
the wrong page, either triggering the asserts of breaking the page'
wire counter.
As the fix, wait for the busy state to finish if we find such page
during unwire, and restart the shadow chain walk after the sleep.

pages, specificially, dirty pages that have passed once through the inactive
queue. A new, dedicated thread is responsible for both deciding when to
launder pages and actually laundering them. The new policy uses the
relative sizes of the inactive and laundry queues to determine whether to
launder pages at a given point in time. In general, this leads to more
intelligent swapping behavior, since the laundry thread will avoid pageouts
when the marginal benefit of doing so is low. Previously, without a
dedicated queue for dirty pages, the page daemon didn't have the information
to determine whether pageout provides any benefit to the system. Thus, the
previous policy often resulted in small but steadily increasing amounts of
swap usage when the system is under memory pressure, even when the inactive
queue consisted mostly of clean pages. This change addresses that issue,
and also paves the way for some future virtual memory system improvements by
removing the last source of object-cached clean pages, i.e., PG_CACHE pages.
The new laundry thread sleeps while waiting for a request from the page
daemon thread(s). A request is raised by setting the variable
vm_laundry_request and waking the laundry thread. We request launderings
for two reasons: to try and balance the inactive and laundry queue sizes
("background laundering"), and to quickly make up for a shortage of free
pages and clean inactive pages ("shortfall laundering"). When background
laundering is requested, the laundry thread computes the number of page
daemon wakeups that have taken place since the last laundering. If this
number is large enough relative to the ratio of the laundry and (global)
inactive queue sizes, we will launder vm_background_launder_target pages at
vm_background_launder_rate KB/s. Otherwise, the laundry thread goes back
to sleep without doing any work. When scanning the laundry queue during
background laundering, reactivated pages are counted towards the laundry
thread's target.
In contrast, shortfall laundering is requested when an inactive queue scan
fails to meet its target. In this case, the laundry thread attempts to
launder enough pages to meet v_free_target within 0.5s, which is the
inactive queue scan period.
A laundry request can be latched while another is currently being
serviced. In particular, a shortfall request will immediately preempt a
background laundering.
This change also redefines the meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated and removes
the functions vm_page_cache() and vm_page_try_to_cache(). The new meaning
of vm_cnt.v_reactivated now better reflects its name. It represents the
number of inactive or laundry pages that are returned to the active queue
on account of a reference.

A robust mutex is guaranteed to be cleared by the system upon either
thread or process owner termination while the mutex is held. The next
mutex locker is then notified about inconsistent mutex state and can
execute (or abandon) corrective actions.
The patch mostly consists of small changes here and there, adding
neccessary checks for the inconsistent and abandoned conditions into
existing paths. Additionally, the thread exit handler was extended to
iterate over the userspace-maintained list of owned robust mutexes,
unlocking and marking as terminated each of them.
The list of owned robust mutexes cannot be maintained atomically
synchronous with the mutex lock state (it is possible in kernel, but
is too expensive). Instead, for the duration of lock or unlock
operation, the current mutex is remembered in a special slot that is
also checked by the kernel at thread termination.
Kernel must be aware about the per-thread location of the heads of
robust mutex lists and the current active mutex slot. When a thread
touches a robust mutex for the first time, a new umtx op syscall is
issued which informs about location of lists heads.
The umtx sleep queues for PP and PI mutexes are split between
non-robust and robust.
