- struct plimit includes a mutex to protect a reference count. The plimit
structure is treated similarly to struct ucred in that is is always copy
on write, so having a reference to a structure is sufficient to read from
it without needing a further lock.
- The proc lock protects the p_limit pointer and must be held while reading
limits from a process to keep the limit structure from changing out from
under you while reading from it.
- Various global limits that are ints are not protected by a lock since
int writes are atomic on all the archs we support and thus a lock
wouldn't buy us anything.
- All accesses to individual resource limits from a process are abstracted
behind a simple lim_rlimit(), lim_max(), and lim_cur() API that return
either an rlimit, or the current or max individual limit of the specified
resource from a process.
- dosetrlimit() was renamed to kern_setrlimit() to match existing style of

but uses lim_rlimit() and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The ibcs2 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits. It
also no longer uses the stackgap for accessing sysctl's for the
ibcs2_sysconf() syscall but uses kernel_sysctl() instead. As a result,

The reason this was done was to avoid a race to the root when an
NFS server went down. However a semi-recent change to the way that
the kernel's lookup() routine traverses mount points prevents this.
Rev 1.39 of vfs_lookup.c changed the ordering of locks such that we
aquire a shared lock on the mount point being accessed and then drop
the directory vnode lock before requesting the target lock.
With that in place we no longer need shared locks for NFS to prevent
race to the root lockups.

- Change fo_read() and fo_write() to accept "active_cred" instead of
"cred", and change the semantics of consumers of fo_read() and
fo_write() to pass the active credential of the thread requesting
an operation rather than the cached file cred. The cached file
cred is still available in fo_read() and fo_write() consumers
via fp->f_cred. These changes largely in sys_generic.c.
For each implementation of fo_read() and fo_write(), update cred
usage to reflect this change and maintain current semantics:
- badfo_readwrite() unchanged
- kqueue_read/write() unchanged
pipe_read/write() now authorize MAC using active_cred rather
than td->td_ucred
- soo_read/write() unchanged
- vn_read/write() now authorize MAC using active_cred but

Modify vn_rdwr() to accept two credential arguments instead of a
single credential: active_cred and file_cred. Use active_cred
for MAC authorization, and select a credential for use in
VOP_READ/WRITE() based on whether file_cred is NULL or not. If
file_cred is provided, authorize the VOP using that cred,
otherwise the active credential, matching current semantics.
Modify current vn_rdwr() consumers to pass a file_cred if used
in the context of a struct file, and to always pass active_cred.
When vn_rdwr() is used without a file_cred, pass NOCRED.
These changes should maintain current semantics for read/write,
but avoid a redundant passing of fp->f_cred, as well as making
it more clear what the origin of each credential is in file
descriptor read/write operations.
Follow-up commits will make similar changes to other file descriptor
operations, and modify the MAC framework to pass both credentials

current behavior is a little questionable and we need to check
POSIX.1 to make sure it's "right". More commenting work still
remains to be done.

o Modify or add the following uid and gid helper routines:
change_euid()
change_egid()
change_ruid()
change_rgid()
change_svuid()
change_svgid()
In each case, the call now acts on a credential not a process, and as
such no longer requires more complicated process locking/etc. They
now assume the caller will do any necessary allocation of an
exclusive credential reference. Each is commented to document its
reference requirements.
o CANSIGIO() is simplified to require only credentials, not processes

CANSIGIO(), needs to be updated to use the p_cansignal() and

VFS operation, make use of the calling process's credential. This
solution may not be ideal (there are a number of other possible
proposals, including making use of the proc0 credential, adding a
credential argument to the VFSOP, and switching from a hard-coded
ucred to a hard-coded nfscred), it is simple and appears to
work. The arguments against using simply crget() are fairly
strong: it is the only place in the code (other than a nearly
identical invocation in ncp) where crget() is invoked, other than
in the process credential creation code; as ucred becomes extensible,
this use of crget() without appropriate context results in less and
less meaningful credential data. The implementation here will
probably be tweaked as a result of experimentation and further
exploration of the requirements. In the mean-time, it allows
progress to be made in ucred expansion for new security models without
causing a crash every time df is used on an NFS mounted file system.
This code has been interop tested against FreeBSD and Solaris NFS
servers. While using the process credentials should not introduce

* the guts of the mount work has been moved into vfs_mount().
* move `type', `path' and `flags' from being userland variables into being

* Attempt to verify the `type' and `path' strings passed to vfs_mount()

* rework mount() and linux_mount() to take the userland parameters
(besides data, as mentioned) and pass kernel variables to vfs_mount().
(linux_mount() already did this, I've just tidied it up a little more.)
* remove the copyin*() stuff for `path'. `data' still requires copyin*()
since its a pointer into userland.
* set `mount->mnt_statf_mntonname' in vfs_mount() rather than in each
filesystem. This variable is generally initialised with `path', and
each filesystem can override it if they want to.
* NOTE: f_mntonname is intiailised with "/" in the case of a root mount.

This also changes struct export_args to remove dependency on the

This is because calls with M_WAIT (now M_TRYWAIT) may not wait
forever when nothing is available for allocation, and may end up

to developers and make it very clear that it's necessary to check whether
calls with M_(TRY)WAIT also resulted in a failed allocation.
M_TRYWAIT basically means "try harder, block if necessary, but don't
necessarily wait forever." The time spent blocking is tunable with
the kern.ipc.mbuf_wait sysctl.
M_WAIT is now deprecated but still defined for the next little while.

The problem seems to originate with NFS's postop_attr
information that is returned with a read or write RPC.
Within a vm_fault context, the code cannot deal with
vnode_pager_setsize() shrinking a vnode.
The workaround in the patch below stops the nfsm_postop_attr()
macro from ever shrinking a vnode. If the new size in the
postop_attr information is smaller, then it just sets the
nfsnode n_attrstamp to 0 to stop the wrong size getting
used in the future. This change only affects postop_attr
attributes; the nfsm_loadattr() macro works as normal.
The change is implemented by adding a new argument to
nfs_loadattrcache() called 'dontshrink'. When this is
non-zero, nfs_loadattrcache() will never reduce the
vnode/nfsnode size; instead it zeros n_attrstamp.
There remain other was processes can get stuck in vmopar.

for the need for copy on write when flushing one of their own indirect
blocks. This eliminates a deadlock between the syncer daemon and a
process taking a snapshot.
Ensure that softdep_process_worklist() can never block because of a
snapshot being taken. This eliminates a problem with buffer starvation.

MNT_WAIT was specified. The result was an unclean filesystem panic

Return a zero'ed block when reading a block that was not in use at

them which can cause unexpected behavior.
Clean up the debugging code that ensures that no blocks be written
on a filesystem while it is suspended. Snapshots must explicitly
label the blocks that they are writing during the suspension so that
they do not cause a `write on suspended filesystem' panic.
Reorganize ffs_copyonwrite() to eliminate a deadlock and also to
prevent a race condition that would permit the same block to be
copied twice. This change eliminates an unexpected soft updates
inconsistency in fsck caused by the double allocation.

blocks in nfs_write().
Second, under -current we must supply the proper bufsize when obtaining
buffers that straddle the EOF, but due to the fact that np->n_size can
change out from under us it is possible that we may specify the wrong
buffer size and wind up truncating dirty data written by another
process.
Both problems are solved by implementing nfs_rslock(), which allows us
to lock around sensitive buffer cache operations such as those that
occur when appending to a file.
It is believed that this race is responsible for causing dirtyoff/dirtyend
and (in stable) validoff/validend to exceed the buffer size. Therefore
we have now added a warning printf for the dirtyoff/end case in current.
However, we have introduced a new problem which we need to fix at some
point, and that is that soft or intr NFS mounts may become
uninterruptable from the point of view of process A which is stuck waiting
on rslock while process B is stuck doing the rpc. To unstick process A,
process B would have to be interrupted first.

blocks of zeros could wind up in a file written to over NFS by a client.
The problem only occurs a few times per several gigabytes of data. This
problem turned out to be bug #3 below.
bug #1:
B_CLUSTEROK must be cleared when an NFS buffer is reverted from
stage 2 (ready for commit rpc) to stage 1 (ready for write).
Reversions can occur when a dirty NFS buffer is redirtied with new
data.
Otherwise the VFS/BIO system may end up thinking that a stage 1
NFS buffer is clusterable. Stage 1 NFS buffers are not clusterable.
bug #2:
B_CLUSTEROK was inappropriately set for a 'short' NFS buffer (short
buffers only occur near the EOF of the file). Change to only set
when the buffer is a full biosize (usually 8K). This bug has no
effect but should be fixed in -current anyway. It need not be
backported.
bug #3:
B_NEEDCOMMIT was inappropriately set in nfs_flush() (which is
typically only called by the update daemon). nfs_flush()
does a multi-pass loop but due to the lack of vnode locking it
is possible for new buffers to be added to the dirtyblkhd list
while a flush operation is going on. This may result in nfs_flush()
setting B_NEEDCOMMIT on a buffer which has *NOT* yet gone through its
stage 1 write, causing only the commit rpc to be made and thus
causing the contents of the buffer to be thrown away (never sent to
the server).
The patch also contains some cleanup, which only applies to the commit
into -current.
