First, for accesses to direct map region should check for the limit by
which direct map is instantiated.
Second, for accesses to the kernel map, success returned from the
kernacc(9) does not guarantee that consequent attempt to read or write
to the checked address succeed, since other thread might invalidate
the address meantime. Add a new thread private flag TDP_DEVMEMIO,
which instructs vm_fault() to return error when fault happens on the
MAP_ENTRY_NOFAULT entry, instead of panicing. The trap handler would
then see a page fault from access, and recover in normal way, making
/dev/mem access safer.
Remove GIANT_REQUIRED from the amd64 memrw(), since it is not needed
and having Giant locked does not solve issues for amd64.
Note that at least the second issue exists on other architectures, and

Handle held pages consistently in the inactive queue scan. In the more

Perform the calculation of the page shortage for the active queue scan a
little earlier, before the active queue lock is acquired. The correctness
of this calculation doesn't depend on the active queue lock being held.
Eliminate a redundant variable, "pcount". Use the more descriptive

no longer any need for the page's PG_CACHED and PG_FREE flags to be set and
cleared while the free page queues lock is held. Thus, vm_page_alloc(),
vm_page_alloc_contig(), and vm_page_alloc_freelist() can wait until after
the free page queues lock is released to clear the page's flags. Moreover,
the PG_FREE flag can be retired. Now that the reservation system no longer
uses it, its only uses are in a few assertions. Eliminating these
assertions is no real loss. Other assertions catch the same types of
misbehavior, like doubly freeing a page (see r260032) or dirtying a free
page (free pages are invalid and only valid pages can be dirtied).

Change the way that reservations keep track of which pages are in use.
Instead of using the page's PG_CACHED and PG_FREE flags, maintain a bit
vector within the reservation. This approach has a couple benefits.
First, it makes breaking reservations much cheaper because there are
fewer cache misses to identify the unused pages. Second, it is a pre-
requisite for supporting two or more reservation sizes.

clipping would create a zero-sized map entry. The result is that vm

MAP_ENTRY_IN_TRANSITION on the zero-sized entry, but failing to clear
it in the done part. The vm_map_delete() than hangs forever waiting

This is a last resort for very low memory condition in case other measures
to free memory were ineffective. Sequentially cycle through all CPUs and
extract per-CPU cache buckets into zone cache from where they can be freed.
Lock congestion is the same, whether it happens on alloc or free, so
handle it equally. Now that we have back pressure, there is no problem
to grow buckets a bit faster. Any way growth is much slower then in 9.x.
These new buckets make bucket size self-tuning more soft and precise.
Without them there are buckets for 1, 5, 13, 29, ... items. While at
bigger sizes difference about 2x is fine, at smallest ones it is 5x and
2.6x respectively. New buckets make that line look like 1, 3, 5, 9, 13,
29, reducing jumps between steps, making algorithm work softer, allocating
and freeing memory in better fitting chunks. Otherwise there is quite a
big gap between allocating 128K and 5x128K of RAM at once.
Every time system detects low memory condition decrease bucket sizes for
each zone by one item. As result, higher memory pressure will push to
smaller bucket sizes and so smaller per-CPU caches and so more efficient
memory use.
Before this change there was no force to oppose buckets growth as result
of practically inevitable zone lock conflicts, and after some run time
per-CPU caches could consume enough RAM to kill the system.

coalesce would extend the object to keep pages for the anonymous
mapping created by the process. The pages has no relations to the
tmpfs file content which could be written into the corresponding
range, causing anonymous mapping and file content aliasing and
subsequent corruption.
Another lesser problem created by coalescing is over-accounting on the
tmpfs node destruction, since the object size is substracted from the
total count of the pages owned by the tmpfs mount.
