into uipc_mbuf.c. This reduces three sets of identical tunable code to
one set, and puts the initialisation with the mbuf code proper.
Make NMBUFs tunable as well.
Move the nmbclusters sysctl here as well.
Move the initialisation of maxsockets from param.c to uipc_socket2.c,
next to its corresponding sysctl.
Use the new tunable macros for the kern.vm.kmem.size tunable (this should have
been in a separate commit, whoops).
with malloc type at the tail of the list changed the list from
linear to circular. This seemed to cause surprisingly few problems,
but it now causes weird output from `vmstat -m', probably because
a more important malloc type is now at the tail of the list.
Fix it by abusing ks_limit instead of ks_next as a flag for being
on the list. Don't forget to clear the flag when a malloc type is
uninit'ed. Uninit'ing is still fundamentally broken -- it loses
history.
changes to the VM system to support the new swapper, VM bug
fixes, several VM optimizations, and some additional revamping of the
VM code. The specific bug fixes will be documented with additional
forced commits. This commit is somewhat rough in regards to code
cleanup issues.

removed at module unload (if in a module of course).
However; this introduces a new dependency on <sys/kernel.h> for things
that use MALLOC_DECLARE(). Bruce told me it is better to add sys/kernel.h
to the handful of files that need it rather than add an extra include to
sys/malloc.h for kernel compiles. Updates to follow in subsequent commits.
in a way identically as before.) I had problems with the system properly
handling the number of vnodes when there is alot of system memory, and the
default VM_KMEM_SIZE. Two new options "VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE" and
"VM_KMEM_SIZE_MAX" have been added to support better auto-sizing for systems
with greater than 128MB.
of the various ad-hoc schemes.
2) When bringing in UPAGES, the pmap code needs to do another vm_page_lookup.
3) When appropriate, set the PG_A or PG_M bits a-priori to both avoid some
processor errata, and to minimize redundant processor updating of page
tables.
4) Modify pmap_protect so that it can only remove permissions (as it
originally supported.) The additional capability is not needed.
5) Streamline read-only to read-write page mappings.
6) For pmap_copy_page, don't enable write mapping for source page.
7) Correct and clean-up pmap_incore.
8) Cluster initial kern_exec pagin.
9) Removal of some minor lint from kern_malloc.
10) Correct some ioopt code.
11) Remove some dead code from the MI swapout routine.
12) Correct vm_object_deallocate (to remove backing_object ref.)
13) Fix dead object handling, that had problems under heavy memory load.
14) Add minor vm_page_lookup improvements.
15) Some pages are not in objects, and make sure that the vm_page.c can
properly support such pages.
16) Add some more page deficit handling.
17) Some minor code readability improvements.
1) Start using TSM.
Struct procs continue to point to upages structure, after being freed.
Struct vmspace continues to point to pte object and kva space for kstack.
u_map is now superfluous.
2) vm_map's don't need to be reference counted. They always exist either
in the kernel or in a vmspace. The vmspaces are managed by reference
counts.
3) Remove the "wired" vm_map nonsense.
4) No need to keep a cache of kernel stack kva's.
5) Get rid of strange looking ++var, and change to var++.
6) Change more data structures to use our "zone" allocator. Added
struct proc, struct vmspace and struct vnode. This saves a significant
amount of kva space and physical memory. Additionally, this enables
TSM for the zone managed memory.
7) Keep ioopt disabled for now.
8) Remove the now bogus "single use" map concept.
9) Use generation counts or id's for data structures residing in TSM, where
it allows us to avoid unneeded restart overhead during traversals, where
blocking might occur.
10) Account better for memory deficits, so the pageout daemon will be able
to make enough memory available (experimental.)
11) Fix some vnode locking problems. (From Tor, I think.)
12) Add a check in ufs_lookup, to avoid lots of unneeded calls to bcmp.
(experimental.)
13) Significantly shrink, cleanup, and make slightly faster the vm_fault.c
code. Use generation counts, get rid of unneded collpase operations,
and clean up the cluster code.
14) Make vm_zone more suitable for TSM.
This commit is partially as a result of discussions and contributions from
other people, including DG, Tor Egge, PHK, and probably others that I
have forgotten to attribute (so let me know, if I forgot.)
This is not the infamous, final cleanup of the vnode stuff, but a necessary
step. Vnode mgmt should be correct, but things might still change, and
there is still some missing stuff (like ioopt, and physical backing of
non-merged cache files, debugging of layering concepts.)
1) Fix the initialization of malloc structure that changed
due to perf opt.
2) Remove unneeded include.
3) An initialization assert added to malloc.

Distribute all but the most fundamental malloc types. This time I also
remembered the trick to making things static: Put "static" in front of
them.
A couple of finer points by: bde
the struct kmemstats that describes the type.
This allows subsystems to declare their malloc types locally
and <sys/malloc.h> doesn't need tweaked everytime somebody
gets an idea. You can even have a type local to a lkm...
I don't know if we really need the longdesc, comments welcome.
TODO: There is a single nit in ext2fs, that will be fixed later,
and I intend to remove all unused malloc types and distribute
the rest closer to their use.
extern in <sys/malloc.h> and it should not have been staticized for
the !(KMEMSTATS || DIAGNOSTIC) case.
Fixed the !(KMEMSTATS || DIAGNOSTIC) case. The MALLOC() and FREE()
macros are evil, but code generally doesn't allow for this and some code
involving else clauses did not compile.
Finished staticization.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
1) The calculation didn't account for NMBCLUSTERS, so if a large number of
clusters was specified, it would leave little or no space for kernel
malloc.
2) It was bogusly restricted to v_page_count. This doesn't take into
account the sparseness of the malloc area and would have caused
problems on machines with small amounts of memory. It should probably
instead be changed to set the malloc limit to be constrained by
the amount of memory, but I didn't do this.

This is a composite of 3 patch sets submitted by terry.
they are:
New low-level init code that supports loadbal modules better
some cleanups in the namei code to help terry in 16-bit character support
some changes to the mount-root code to make it a little more
modular..
NOTE: mounting root off cdrom or NFS MIGHT be broken as I haven't been able
to test those cases..
certainly mounting root of disk still works just fine..
mfs should work but is untested. (tomorrows task)
The low level init stuff includes a total rewrite of init_main.c
to make it possible for new modules to have an init phase by simply
adding an entry to a TEXT_SET (or is it DATA_SET) list. thus a new module can
be added to the kernel without editing any other files other than the
'files' file.
argument is now more than just a single flag. (kern_malloc.c)
Used new M_KERNEL value for socket allocations that previous were
"M_NOWAIT". Note that this will change when we clean up the M_ namespace
mess.
