incorrectly does vm_object_page_remove(0, 0), removing all pages from
the underlying vm object, not only the pages that back the extended
attributes data.
Change vinvalbuf() to not remove any pages from the object when
V_NORMAL or V_ALT are specified. Instead, the only in-tree caller
in ffs_inode.c:ffs_truncate() that specifies V_ALT explicitely
removes the corresponding page range. The V_NORMAL caller
does vnode_pager_setsize(vp, 0) immediately after the call to
vinvalbuf(V_NORMAL) already.

In normal operation, the number of cache entries is roughly equal to the
number of active vnodes. However, when most of the recently accessed
vnodes have many hard links, the number of cache entries can be 32000

on SysV semaphores.
The squeeze of the semaphore array in the kern_semctl() modifies
sem_base for the semaphores with sem_base greater then sem_base of
the removed semaphore, as well as the values of the semaphores,
without locking their mutex. This can lead to (killable) hangs or
unexpected behaviour of the processes performing any sem operations
while other process does IPC_RMID.
The semexit_myhook() eventhandler unlocks SEMUNDO_LOCK() while
accessing *suptr. This allows for IPC_RMID for the sem id to be
performed in parallel with undo hook referenced by the current undo
structure. This leads to the panic("semexit - semid not allocated") [1].
The semaphore creation is protected by Giant, while IPC_RMID is done
while only semaphore mutex is held. This seems to result in invalid
values for semtot, causing random ENOSPC error returns [2].
Redo the locking of the semaphores lifetime cycle. Delegate the
sem_mtx to the sole purpose of protecting semget() and
semctl(IPC_RMID). Introduce new sem_undo_mtx to protect SEM_UNDO
handling. Remove the Giant remnants from the code.
Note that mac_sysvsem_check_semget() and mac_sysvsem_create() are
now called while sem_mtx is held, as well as mac_sysvsem_cleanup() [3].
When semaphore is removed, acquire semaphore locks for all semaphores
with sem_base that is going to be changed by squeeze of the sema
array. The lock order is not important there, because the region is
protected by sem_mtx.
Organize both used and free sem_undo structures into the lists,
protected by sem_undo_mtx. In semexit_myhook(), remove sem_undo
structure that is being processed, from used list, without putting it
onto the free to prevent modifications by other threads. This allows
for sem_undo_lock to be dropped to acquire individial semaphore locks
without violating lock order. Since IPC_RMID may no longer find this
sem_undo, do tolerate references to unallocated semaphores in undo
structure, and check sequential number to not undo unrelated semaphore
with the same id.
While there, convert functions definitions to ANSI C and fix small
style(9) glitches.

During boot, the domain list is locked with Giant. It is not possible to
register any protocols after the system has booted, so the lock is only
used to protect insertion of entries.
There is already a mutex in uipc_domain.c called dom_mtx. Use this mutex
to lock the list, instead of using Giant. It won't matter anything with
respect to performance, but we'll never get rid of Giant if we don't

It seems I forgot to remove `int error' from a single piece of code. I'm
also moving ogetkerninfo() to kern_xxx.c, because it belongs to the
class of compat system information system calls, not the generic sysctl
code.
In the existing code we didn't really enforce that callers hold Giant
before calling userland_sysctl(), even though there is no guarantee it
is safe. Fix this by just placing Giant locks around the call to the oid
handler. This also means we only pick up Giant for a very short period
of time. Maybe we should add MPSAFE flags to sysctl or phase it out all
together.
I've also added SYSCTL_LOCK_ASSERT(). We have to make sure sysctl_root()
and name2oid() are called with the sysctl lock held.

For now, leave those assertions #if 0'd, since there are a few

is an interesting question: currently abort is only invoked on stream

it running under a virtual environment. This also introduces a globally
accessible variable vm_guest that can be used where appropriate in the
kernel to inspect this environment.
To make it easier for the long run, an enum VM_GUEST is also introduced,
which could possibly be factored out in a header somewhere (but the
question is where - vm/vm_param.h? sys/param.h?) so it eventually becomes
a part of the standard KPI. In any case, it's a start.
The purpose of all this isn't to absolutely detect that the OS is running
under a virtual environment (cf. "redpill") but to allow the parts of the
kernel and the userland that care about this particular aspect and can do
something useful depending on it to have a standardised interface. Reducing
kern.hz is one example but there are other things that could be done like
avoiding context switches, not using CPU instructions that are known to be
slow in emulation, possibly different strategies in VM (memory) allocation,
CPU scheduling, etc.
It isn't clear if the JAILS/VIMAGE functionality should also be exposed
by this particular mechanism (probably not since they're not "full"
virtual hardware environments). Sometime in the future another sysctl and
a variable could be introduced to reflect if the kernel supports any kind
of virtual hosting (e.g. VMWare VMI, Xen dom0).

- threadB, in vfs_mount_destroy(), finds mnt_lock > 0 and sleeps waiting

Fix the deadlock by adding a flag called MNTK_REFEXPIRE which signals the

The vfs_busy contenders got awake, fails, and if they retry the
MNTK_REFEXPIRE won't allow them to sleep again.

On HyperThreading CPUs logical cores have same frequency, so setting it
on any core will change the other's one. In most cases first request
to the second core will be the "set" request, done after setting frequency
of the first core. In such case second CPU will obtain throttled frequency
of the first core as it's max_mhz making cpufreq broken due to different
frequency sets.
