that the datastructures needed to support the swap pager can take
enough space to fully deplete system memory, and cause a deadlock.
This change keeps large objects from being filled with dirty pages
without the appropriate swap pager datastructures. Right now,
default objects greater than 1/4 the size of available system memory
are converted to swap objects, thereby eliminating the risk of deadlock.

for a page remaining on the expected queue. Additionally, the inactive
target was being set much too large for small memory machines. It is now
being calculated based upon the amount of user memory available on every
pageout daemon run. Another problem was that if memory was very low, the
pageout daemon could fail repeatedly to traverse the inactive queue.

vm_fault code. Really bad things appear to happen if a page is on a queue

If you really have a desperate need to link or unlink a directory, you
can use fsdb. :-)
This should stop any chance of ftpd, rdist, "rm -rf", etc from
bugging out and damaging the filesystem structure or loosing races

If COMPAT_IPFW is not defined, or if it is defined to 1, enable;
otherwise, disable.
This means that these changes actually have no effect on anyone at the

In the future, the `not defined' part of the hack should be eliminated,

The same conditionals need to be made in ip_input.c as well for this to
ave any useful effect, but I'm not ready to do that right now.

comparing the PTD pointers, they needed to be masked by PG_FRAME, and

improvement, so I simplified and fixed the code. This might have

Remove all Ultra settings except for the top three that are documented

With this fix from Stephen, we are getting the target fork performance

The first PCI card will get a unit number one higher than the highest

BEWARE: If you have configured your kernel as ed0 with the port address

PCI and ISA probes, and bad things may happen. Make sure to restore

contributions or ideas from Stephen McKay <syssgm@devetir.qld.gov.au>,
Alan Cox <alc@cs.rice.edu>, David Greenman <davidg@freebsd.org> and me:
More usage of the TAILQ macros. Additional minor fix to queue.h.
Performance enhancements to the pageout daemon.
Addition of a wait in the case that the pageout daemon
has to run immediately.
Slightly modify the pageout algorithm.
Significant revamp of the pmap/fork code:
1) PTE's and UPAGES's are NO LONGER in the process's map.
2) PTE's and UPAGES's reside in their own objects.
3) TOTAL elimination of recursive page table pagefaults.
4) The page directory now resides in the PTE object.
5) Implemented pmap_copy, thereby speeding up fork time.
6) Changed the pv entries so that the head is a pointer
and not an entire entry.
7) Significant cleanup of pmap_protect, and pmap_remove.
8) Removed significant amounts of machine dependent
fork code from vm_glue. Pushed much of that code into
the machine dependent pmap module.
9) Support more completely the reuse of already zeroed
pages (Page table pages and page directories) as being
already zeroed.
Performance and code cleanups in vm_map:
1) Improved and simplified allocation of map entries.
2) Improved vm_map_copy code.
3) Corrected some minor problems in the simplify code.
Implemented splvm (combo of splbio and splimp.) The VM code now
seldom uses splhigh.
Improved the speed of and simplified kmem_malloc.
Minor mod to vm_fault to avoid using pre-zeroed pages in the case
of objects with backing objects along with the already
existant condition of having a vnode. (If there is a backing
object, there will likely be a COW... With a COW, it isn't
necessary to start with a pre-zeroed page.)
Minor reorg of source to perhaps improve locality of ref.
1) A spelling error pointed out by Paco Hope.
2) A bug in the range checking routing pointed out by Jim Bray.
3) Enables the setting of frames per second.
