plus the previous changes to use the zone allocator decrease the useage
of malloc by half. The Zone allocator will be upgradeable to be able
to use per CPU-pools, and has more intelligent usage of SPLs. Additionally,
it has reasonable stats gathering capabilities, while making most calls
inline.
1. ffs_alloc() actually allowed writing one block less one frag (normally
7 frags or 7/8 blocks) beyond the limit.
2. freebufspace() gives the free space in frags, but `size' is in bytes,
so the change results in approximately `size' fragments too many being
reserved.
3. ffs_realloccg() has the same bug but wasn't changed.

Introduce VFREE which indicates that vnode is on freelist.
Rename vholdrele() to vdrop().
Create vfree() and vbusy() to add/delete vnode from freelist.
Add vfree()/vbusy() to keep (v_holdcnt != 0 || v_usecount != 0)
vnodes off the freelist.
Generalize vhold()/v_holdcnt to mean "do not recycle".
Fix reassignbuf()s lack of use of vhold().
Use vhold() instead of checking v_cache_src list.
Remove vtouch(), the vnodes are always vget'ed soon enough
after for it to have any measuable effect.
Add sysctl debug.freevnodes to keep track of things.
Move cache_purge() up in getnewvnodes to avoid race.
Decrement v_usecount after VOP_INACTIVE(), put a vhold() on
it during VOP_INACTIVE()
Unmacroize vhold()/vdrop()
Print out VDOOMED and VFREE flags (XXX: should use %b)

This unifies several times in theory indentical 50 lines of code.
The filesystems have a new method: vop_cachedlookup, which is the
meat of the lookup, and use vfs_cache_lookup() for their vop_lookup
method. vfs_cache_lookup() will check the namecache and pass on
to the vop_cachedlookup method in case of a miss.
It's still the task of the individual filesystems to populate the
namecache with cache_enter().
Filesystems that do not use the namecache will just provide the
vop_lookup method as usual.

code. According to the crash dump, bpref is set to 445
and cgp->cg_nclusterblks is 444. Hence in the for loop,
the test fails immediately but the following failure check
(got == cgp->cg_nclusterblks) doesn't trigger because got >
cgp->cg_nclusterblks. This wreaks havoc in the code after that.
Fix: Move one source bit to the left :-)

chown(). Previously, it wasn't marked for null chown()'s. We
permit null chown()s as a special case of "appropriate privilege"
- everyone has enough priviilege to not change ids (this is a better
argument than the one I gave for rev.1.13, that null changes aren't
really changes). However, POSIX.1 requires the update independently
of whether anything has changed.
Clear both the setuid and the setgid bits upon successful completion
of non-null chown()s by non-root. Previously, the setuid bit was
only changed for non-null changes of the uid, etc. POSIX.1 requires
clearing both unless the call was made by a process with "appropriate
privilege", in which case altering the bits is implementation-defined.
We define appropriate privilege as `process is root, or the change
is null', and the implementation-defined behaviour as not altering
the bits. There is no interpretation that permits clearing only
one of the bits.

cause a problem of spiraling death due to buffer resource limitations.
The vfs_bio code in general had little ability to handle buffer resource
management, and now it does. Also, there are a lot more knobs for tuning the
vfs_bio code now. The knobs came free because of the need that there
always be some immediately available buffers (non-delayed or locked) for
use. Note that the buffer cache code is much less likely to get bogged
down with lots of delayed writes, even more so than before.
These changes add the ability to specify that a UFS file/directory
cannot be unlinked. This is basically a scaled back version
of the IMMUTABLE flag. The reason is to allow an administrator
to create a directory hierarchy that a group of users
can arbitrarily add/delete files from, but that the hierarchy
itself is safe from removal by them.
If the NOUNLINK definition is set to 0
then this results in no change to what happens normally.

It can be proven that if this bit is never set by the admin,

of users not being able to delete their symlinks from /tmp once and for
all.
Symlinks do not have modes though, they are accessable to everything that
can read the directory (as before). They are made to show this fact at
lstat time (they appear as mode 0777 always, since that's how the the
lookup routines in the kernel treat them).
More commits will follow, eg: add a real lchown() syscall and man pages.

by splclock()/splx(). Accesses outside such a region are invalid, and
splx() must have the side effect of potentially changing all global
