paging queue. Usually, this results in a lot of type casts which make
reasoning about the code correctness harder.
Sometimes m->object is used instead of pageq, which could cause real
and confusing bugs if non-NULL m->object is leaked. See r141955 and
r253140 for examples.
Change the pageq member into a union containing explicitly-typed
members. Use them instead of type-punning or abusing m->object in x86

On architectures supporting direct mapping, also avoid to pre-allocate

In order to do so make the operations derived from vm_radix_insert()

vm_radix-wise introduce a new function called vm_radix_replace(),
which can replace a leaf node, already present, with a new one,
and take into account the possibility, during vm_radix_insert()
allocation, that the operations on the radix trie can recurse.
This means that if operations in vm_radix_insert() recursed
vm_radix_insert() will start from scratch again.

Unify the 2 concept into a real, minimal, sxlock where the shared
acquisition represent the soft busy and the exclusive acquisition
represent the hard busy.
The old VPO_WANTED mechanism becames the hard-path for this new lock
and it becomes per-page rather than per-object.
The vm_object lock becames an interlock for this functionality:
it can be held in both read or write mode.
However, if the vm_object lock is held in read mode while acquiring
or releasing the busy state, the thread owner cannot make any
assumption on the busy state unless it is also busying it.
Also:
- Add a new flag to directly shared busy pages while vm_page_alloc
and vm_page_grab are being executed. This will be very helpful
once these functions happen under a read object lock.
- Move the swapping sleep into its own per-object flag
The KPI is heavilly changed this is why the version is bumped.

Issues were noted by Bruce Evans and are present on all architectures.
On i386, a counter fetch should use atomic read of 64bit value,
otherwise carry from the increment on other CPU could be lost for the
given fetch, making error of 2^32. If 64bit read (cmpxchg8b) is not
available on the machine, it cannot be SMP and it is enough to disable
preemption around read to avoid the split read.
On x86 the counter increment is not atomic on purpose, which makes it
possible for the store of the incremented result to override just
zeroed per-cpu slot. The effect would be a counter going off by
arbitrary value after zeroing. Perform the counter zeroing on the
same processor which does the increments, making the operations
mutually exclusive. On i386, same as for the fetching, if the
cmpxchg8b is not available, machine is not SMP and we disable
preemption for zeroing.
PowerPC64 is treated the same as amd64.
For other architectures, the changes made to allow the compilation to
succeed, without fixing the issues with zeroing or fetching. It
should be possible to handle them by using the 64bit loads and stores
atomic WRT preemption (assuming the architectures also converted from
using critical sections to proper asm). If architecture does not
provide the facility, using global (spin) mutex would be non-optimal
but working solution.

the sequence of loading the machine state is not atomic. The trap()
function which transfers the control to the special handler would
enable the interrupt, but an iret loads the previous eflags with PSL_I
clear. Then, the special handler calls trap() on its own, which now
sees the original eflags with PSL_I set and does not enable
interrupts.
The end result is that signal delivery and process exiting code could
be executed with interrupts disabled, which is generally wrong and
triggers several assertions.
For amd64, the interrupts are enabled conditionally based on PSL_I in
the eflags of the outer frame, as it is already done for
doreti_iret_fault. For i386, the interrupts are enabled
unconditionally, the ast loop could have opened a window with

do not map the b_pages pages into buffer_map KVA. The use of the
unmapped buffers eliminate the need to perform TLB shootdown for
mapping on the buffer creation and reuse, greatly reducing the amount
of IPIs for shootdown on big-SMP machines and eliminating up to 25-30%
of the system time on i/o intensive workloads.
The unmapped buffer should be explicitely requested by the GB_UNMAPPED
flag by the consumer. For unmapped buffer, no KVA reservation is
performed at all. The consumer might request unmapped buffer which
does have a KVA reserve, to manually map it without recursing into
buffer cache and blocking, with the GB_KVAALLOC flag.
When the mapped buffer is requested and unmapped buffer already
exists, the cache performs an upgrade, possibly reusing the KVA
reservation.
Unmapped buffer is translated into unmapped bio in g_vfs_strategy().
Unmapped bio carry a pointer to the vm_page_t array, offset and length
instead of the data pointer. The provider which processes the bio
should explicitely specify a readiness to accept unmapped bio,
otherwise g_down geom thread performs the transient upgrade of the bio
request by mapping the pages into the new bio_transient_map KVA
submap.
The bio_transient_map submap claims up to 10% of the buffer map, and
the total buffer_map + bio_transient_map KVA usage stays the
same. Still, it could be manually tuned by kern.bio_transient_maxcnt
tunable, in the units of the transient mappings. Eventually, the
bio_transient_map could be removed after all geom classes and drivers
can accept unmapped i/o requests.
Unmapped support can be turned off by the vfs.unmapped_buf_allowed
tunable, disabling which makes the buffer (or cluster) creation
requests to ignore GB_UNMAPPED and GB_KVAALLOC flags. Unmapped
buffers are only enabled by default on the architectures where
pmap_copy_page() was implemented and tested.
In the rework, filesystem metadata is not the subject to maxbufspace
limit anymore. Since the metadata buffers are always mapped, the
buffers still have to fit into the buffer map, which provides a
reasonable (but practically unreachable) upper bound on it. The
non-metadata buffer allocations, both mapped and unmapped, is
accounted against maxbufspace, as before. Effectively, this means that
the maxbufspace is forced on mapped and unmapped buffers separately.
The pre-patch bufspace limiting code did not worked, because
buffer_map fragmentation does not allow the limit to be reached.
By Jeff Roberson request, the getnewbuf() function was split into
smaller single-purpose functions.

Replace the per-object resident and cached pages splay tree with a
path-compressed multi-digit radix trie.
Along with this, switch also the x86-specific handling of idle page
tables to using the radix trie.
This change is supposed to do the following:
- Allowing the acquisition of read locking for lookup operations of the
resident/cached pages collections as the per-vm_page_t splay iterators
are now removed.
- Increase the scalability of the operations on the page collections.
The radix trie does rely on the consumers locking to ensure atomicity of
its operations. In order to avoid deadlocks the bisection nodes are
pre-allocated in the UMA zone. This can be done safely because the
algorithm needs at maximum one new node per insert which means the
maximum number of the desired nodes is the number of available physical
frames themselves. However, not all the times a new bisection node is
really needed.
The radix trie implements path-compression because UFS indirect blocks
can lead to several objects with a very sparse trie, increasing the number
of levels to usually scan. It also helps in the nodes pre-fetching by
introducing the single node per-insert property.
This code is not generalized (yet) because of the possible loss of
performance by having much of the sizes in play configurable.
However, efforts to make this code more general and then reusable in
further different consumers might be really done.
The only KPI change is the removal of the function vm_page_splay() which
is now reaped.
The only KBI change, instead, is the removal of the left/right iterators
from struct vm_page, which are now reaped.

* The vm/vm_pager.h namespace pollution avoidance (forcing requiring
sys/mutex.h in consumers directly to cater its inlining functions

consumers now must include also sys/rwlock.h.
* zfs requires a quite convoluted fix to include FreeBSD rwlocks into

At this purpose zfs redefines the vm_object locking functions

for the checks.
Introduce the VOP_GET_WRITECOUNT to read v_writecount, which is
currently always bypassed to the lower vnode, and VOP_ADD_WRITECOUNT
to manipulate the v_writecount value, which manages a single bypass
reference to the lower vnode. Caling the VOPs instead of directly
accessing v_writecount provide the fix described in the previous
paragraph.

upon pmap_enter() to create a mapping within a different address space,
i.e., not the thread's own address space. On i386, this entails the
creation of a temporary mapping to the affected page table page (PTP). In
general, pmap_enter() will read from this PTP, allocate a PV entry, and
write to this PTP. The trouble comes when the system is short of memory.
In order to allocate a new PV entry, an older PV entry has to be
reclaimed. Reclaiming a PV entry involves destroying a mapping, which
requires access to the affected PTP. Thus, the PTP mapped at the
beginning of pmap_enter() is no longer mapped at the end of pmap_enter(),
which leads to pmap_enter() modifying the wrong PTP. To address this
problem, pmap_pv_reclaim() is changed to use an alternate method of
mapping PTPs.

pmap_unmapdev()'s own direct efforts to destroy the page table entries are
redundant, so eliminate them.
Don't set PTE_W on the page table entry in pmap_kenter{,_attr}() on MIPS.
Setting PTE_W on MIPS is inconsistent with the implementation of this
function on other architectures. Moreover, PTE_W should not be set, unless
the pmap's wired mapping count is incremented, which pmap_kenter{,_attr}()
doesn't do.

From the Intel whitepapers and articles about Bull Mountain, it seems
that we do not need to perform post-processing of RDRAND results, like
AES-encryption of the data with random IV and keys, which was done for
Padlock. Intel claims that sanitization is performed in hardware.
Make both Padlock and Bull Mountain random generators support code

stale. Quite some time has passed since these pmap implementations last
used the page's hold count to track the number of valid mapping within a
page table page. Also, returning TRUE from pmap_unwire_ptp() rather than
_pmap_unwire_ptp() eliminates a few instructions from callers like
pmap_enter_quick_locked() where pmap_unwire_ptp()'s return value is used
directly by a conditional statement.

prefix, to indicate the intended location of the code in some future.
The versioned per-algorithm data is exported in the format of struct
vdso_timehands, which mostly repeats the content of in-kernel struct
timehands. Usermode reading of the structure can be lockless.
Compatibility export for 32bit processes on 64bit host is also
provided. Kernel also provides usermode with indication about
currently used timecounter, so that libc can fall back to syscall if
configured timecounter is unknown to usermode code.
The shared data updates are initiated both from the tc_windup(), where
a fast task is queued to do the update, and from sysctl handlers which
change timecounter. A manual override switch
kern.timecounter.fast_gettime allows to turn off the mechanism.
Only x86 architectures export the real algorithm data, and there, only
for tsc timecounter. HPET counters page could be exported as well, but
I prefer to not further glue the kernel and libc ABI there until
proper vdso-based solution is developed.
Minimal stubs neccessary for non-x86 architectures to still compile
are provided.

pmap_page_is_write_mapped() in order to completely encapsulate all direct

Aesthetics aside, I am making this change because amd64 will likely begin
using an alternative method to track write mappings, and having
pmap_page_is_write_mapped() in place allows me to make such a change
without further modification to the MI VM layer.
As an added bonus, tidy up some nearby comments concerning page flags.
