2a0c503e7a * Rename M_WAIT mbuf subsystem flag to M_TRYWAIT.
This is because calls with M_WAIT (now M_TRYWAIT) may not wait
  forever when nothing is available for allocation, and may end up
  returning NULL. Hopefully we now communicate more of the right thing
  to developers and make it very clear that it's necessary to check whether
  calls with M_(TRY)WAIT also resulted in a failed allocation.
  M_TRYWAIT basically means "try harder, block if necessary, but don't
  necessarily wait forever." The time spent blocking is tunable with
  the kern.ipc.mbuf_wait sysctl.
  M_WAIT is now deprecated but still defined for the next little while.

* Fix a typo in a comment in mbuf.h

* Fix some code that was actually passing the mbuf subsystem's M_WAIT to
  malloc(). Made it pass M_WAITOK instead. If we were ever to redefine the
  value of the M_WAIT flag, this could have became a big problem.

279d722604 This patchset fixes a large number of file descriptor race conditions.
Pre-rfork code assumed inherent locking of a process's file descriptor
    array.  However, with the advent of rfork() the file descriptor table
    could be shared between processes.  This patch closes over a dozen
    serious race conditions related to one thread manipulating the table
    (e.g. closing or dup()ing a descriptor) while another is blocked in
    an open(), close(), fcntl(), read(), write(), etc...

dc6dd1259f Problem to avoid processes getting stuck in "vmopar". From Ian's
mail:

	The problem seems to originate with NFS's postop_attr
	information that is returned with a read or write RPC.
	Within a vm_fault context, the code cannot deal with
	vnode_pager_setsize() shrinking a vnode.

	The workaround in the patch below stops the nfsm_postop_attr()
	macro from ever shrinking a vnode. If the new size in the
	postop_attr information is smaller, then it just sets the
	nfsnode n_attrstamp to 0 to stop the wrong size getting
	used in the future. This change only affects postop_attr
	attributes; the nfsm_loadattr() macro works as normal.

	The change is implemented by adding a new argument to
	nfs_loadattrcache() called 'dontshrink'. When this is
	non-zero, nfs_loadattrcache() will never reduce the
	vnode/nfsnode size; instead it zeros n_attrstamp.

There remain other was processes can get stuck in vmopar.

0384fff8c5 Major update to the way synchronization is done in the kernel. Highlights
include:

* Mutual exclusion is used instead of spl*().  See mutex(9).  (Note: The
  alpha port is still in transition and currently uses both.)

* Per-CPU idle processes.

* Interrupts are run in their own separate kernel threads and can be
  preempted (i386 only).

9b97113391 This patch corrects the first round of panics and hangs reported
with the new snapshot code.

Update addaliasu to correctly implement the semantics of the old
checkalias function. When a device vnode first comes into existence,
check to see if an anonymous vnode for the same device was created
at boot time by bdevvp(). If so, adopt the bdevvp vnode rather than
creating a new vnode for the device. This corrects a problem which
caused the kernel to panic when taking a snapshot of the root
filesystem.

Change the calling convention of vn_write_suspend_wait() to be the
same as vn_start_write().

Split out softdep_flushworklist() from softdep_flushfiles() so that
it can be used to clear the work queue when suspending filesystem
operations.

Access to buffers becomes recursive so that snapshots can recursively
traverse their indirect blocks using ffs_copyonwrite() when checking
for the need for copy on write when flushing one of their own indirect
blocks. This eliminates a deadlock between the syncer daemon and a
process taking a snapshot.

Ensure that softdep_process_worklist() can never block because of a
snapshot being taken. This eliminates a problem with buffer starvation.

Cleanup change in ffs_sync() which did not synchronously wait when
MNT_WAIT was specified. The result was an unclean filesystem panic
when doing forcible unmount with heavy filesystem I/O in progress.

Return a zero'ed block when reading a block that was not in use at
the time that a snapshot was taken. Normally, these blocks should
never be read. However, the readahead code will occationally read
them which can cause unexpected behavior.

Clean up the debugging code that ensures that no blocks be written
on a filesystem while it is suspended. Snapshots must explicitly
label the blocks that they are writing during the suspension so that
they do not cause a `write on suspended filesystem' panic.

Reorganize ffs_copyonwrite() to eliminate a deadlock and also to
prevent a race condition that would permit the same block to be
copied twice. This change eliminates an unexpected soft updates
inconsistency in fsck caused by the double allocation.

Use bqrelse rather than brelse for buffers that will be needed
soon again by the snapshot code. This improves snapshot performance.

f2a2857bb3 Add snapshots to the fast filesystem. Most of the changes support
the gating of system calls that cause modifications to the underlying
filesystem. The gating can be enabled by any filesystem that needs
to consistently suspend operations by adding the vop_stdgetwritemount
to their set of vnops. Once gating is enabled, the function
vfs_write_suspend stops all new write operations to a filesystem,
allows any filesystem modifying system calls already in progress
to complete, then sync's the filesystem to disk and returns. The
function vfs_write_resume allows the suspended write operations to
begin again. Gating is not added by default for all filesystems as
for SMP systems it adds two extra locks to such critical kernel
paths as the write system call. Thus, gating should only be added
as needed.

Details on the use and current status of snapshots in FFS can be
found in /sys/ufs/ffs/README.snapshot so for brevity and timelyness
is not included here. Unless and until you create a snapshot file,
these changes should have no effect on your system (famous last words).

21144e3bf1 Remove B_READ, B_WRITE and B_FREEBUF and replace them with a new
field in struct buf: b_iocmd.  The b_iocmd is enforced to have
exactly one bit set.

B_WRITE was bogusly defined as zero giving rise to obvious coding
mistakes.

Also eliminate the redundant struct buf flag B_CALL, it can just
as efficiently be done by comparing b_iodone to NULL.

Should you get a panic or drop into the debugger, complaining about
"b_iocmd", don't continue.  It is likely to write on your disk
where it should have been reading.

This change is a step in the direction towards a stackable BIO capability.

ea94c7b968 Synopsis of problem being fixed: Dan Nelson originally reported that
blocks of zeros could wind up in a file written to over NFS by a client.
    The problem only occurs a few times per several gigabytes of data.   This
    problem turned out to be bug #3 below.

    bug #1:

        B_CLUSTEROK must be cleared when an NFS buffer is reverted from
        stage 2 (ready for commit rpc) to stage 1 (ready for write).
        Reversions can occur when a dirty NFS buffer is redirtied with new
        data.

        Otherwise the VFS/BIO system may end up thinking that a stage 1
        NFS buffer is clusterable.  Stage 1 NFS buffers are not clusterable.

    bug #2:

        B_CLUSTEROK was inappropriately set for a 'short' NFS buffer (short
        buffers only occur near the EOF of the file).  Change to only set
        when the buffer is a full biosize (usually 8K).  This bug has no
        effect but should be fixed in -current anyway.  It need not be
        backported.

    bug #3:

        B_NEEDCOMMIT was inappropriately set in nfs_flush() (which is
	typically only called by the update daemon).  nfs_flush()
        does a multi-pass loop but due to the lack of vnode locking it
        is possible for new buffers to be added to the dirtyblkhd list
        while a flush operation is going on.  This may result in nfs_flush()
        setting B_NEEDCOMMIT on a buffer which has *NOT* yet gone through its
        stage 1 write, causing only the commit rpc to be made and thus
        causing the contents of the buffer to be thrown away (never sent to
        the server).

    The patch also contains some cleanup, which only applies to the commit
    into -current.

13e14363fe Make FreeBSD less conservative in determining when to return a cookie
error for a directory.  I have made this change after a great deal of
    review although I cannot be absolutely sure that this meets the spec.

    The issue devolves into whether changes in an underlying (UFS) directory
    can cause NFS directory blocks to be renumbered.  My read of the code
    indicates that NFS directory blocks will not be renumbered, which means
    that the cookies should still remain valid after a change is made to
    the underlying directory.  This being the case, a cookie error should
    not be returned when a change is made to the underlying directory and,
    instead, the NFS client should rely on mtime detection to invalidate and
    reload the directory.

    The use of mtime is problematic in of itself, due to insufficient
    resolution, which is why I believe the original conservative error
    handling was done.  Still, there have been dozens of bug reports by
    people needing solaris<->FreeBSD interoperability and these have to
    be accomodated.

2c42a14602 sigset_t change (part 2 of 5)
-----------------------------

The core of the signalling code has been rewritten to operate
on the new sigset_t. No methodological changes have been made.
Most references to a sigset_t object are through macros (see
signalvar.h) to create a level of abstraction and to provide
a basis for further improvements.

The NSIG constant has not been changed to reflect the maximum
number of signals possible. The reason is that it breaks
programs (especially shells) which assume that all signals
have a non-null name in sys_signame. See src/bin/sh/trap.c
for an example. Instead _SIG_MAXSIG has been introduced to
hold the maximum signal possible with the new sigset_t.

struct sigprop has been moved from signalvar.h to kern_sig.c
because a) it is only used there, and b) access must be done
though function sigprop(). The latter because the table doesn't
holds properties for all signals, but only for the first NSIG
signals.

signal.h has been reorganized to make reading easier and to
add the new and/or modified structures. The "old" structures
are moved to signalvar.h to prevent namespace polution.

Especially the coda filesystem suffers from the change, because
it contained lines like (p->p_sigmask == SIGIO), which is easy
to do for integral types, but not for compound types.

NOTE: kdump (and port linux_kdump) must be recompiled.

Thanks to Garrett Wollman and Daniel Eischen for pressing the
importance of changing sigreturn as well.

b5acbc8b9c Asynchronized client-side nfs_commit. NFS commit operations were
previously issued synchronously even if async daemons (nfsiod's) were
    available.  The commit has been moved from the strategy code to the doio
    code in order to asynchronize it.

    Removed use of lastr in preparation for removal of vnode->v_lastr.  It
    has been replaced with seqcount, which is already supported by the system
    and, in fact, gives us a better heuristic for sequential detection then
    lastr ever did.

    Made major performance improvements to the server side commit.  The
    server previously fsync'd the entire file for each commit rpc.  The
    server now bawrite()s only those buffers related to the offset/size
    specified in the commit rpc.

    Note that we do not commit the meta-data yet.  This works still needs
    to be done.

    Note that a further optimization can be done (and has not yet been done)
    on the client: we can merge multiple potential commit rpc's into a
    single rpc with a greater file offset/size range and greatly reduce
    rpc traffic.

ac7cc2e469 Convert all the nfs macros to do { blah } while (0) to ensure it
works correctly in if/else etc.  egcs had probably picked up most of the
problems here before with "ambiguous braces" etc, but this should

0ef1c82630 Decommision miscfs/specfs/specdev.h. Most of it goes into <sys/conf.h>,
a few lines into <sys/vnode.h>.

Add a few fields to struct specinfo, paving the way for the fun part.
