The type represents byte offset in the vm_object_t data space, which
does not span negative offsets in FreeBSD VM. The change matches byte
offset signess with the unsignedness of the vm_pindex_t which
represents the type of the page indexes in the objects.
This allows to remove the UOFF_TO_IDX() macro which was used when we
have to forcibly interpret the type as unsigned anyway. Also it fixes
a lot of implicit bugs in the device drivers d_mmap methods.

For regular files and posix shared memory, POSIX requires that
[offset, offset + size) range is legitimate. At the maping time,
check that offset is not negative. Allowing negative offsets might
expose the data that filesystem put into vm_object for internal use,
esp. due to OFF_TO_IDX() signess treatment. Fault handler verifies
that the mapped range is valid, assuming that mmap(2) checked that
arithmetic gives no undefined results.
For device mappings, leave the semantic of negative offsets to the
driver. Correct object page index calculation to not erronously
propagate sign.
In either case, disallow overflow of offset + size.
Update mmap(2) man page to explain the requirement of the range
validity, and behaviour when the range becomes invalid after mapping.

with cdev_pg_populate() to provide device drivers access to it. It
gives drivers fine control of the pages ownership and allows drivers
to implement arbitrary prefault policies.
The populate method is called on a page fault and is supposed to
populate the vm object with the page at the fault location and some
amount of pages around it, at pager's discretion. VM provides the
pager with the hints about current range of the object mapping, to
avoid instantiation of immediately unused pages, if pager decides so.
Also, VM passes the fault type and map entry protection to the pager,
allowing it to force the optimal required ownership of the mapped
pages.
Installed pages must contiguously fill the returned region, be fully
valid and exclusively busied. Of course, the pages must be compatible
with the object' type.
After populate() successfully returned, VM fault handler installs as
many instantiated pages into the process page tables as it sees
reasonable, while still obeying the correct semantic for COW and vm
map locking.
The method is opt-in, pager sets OBJ_POPULATE flag to indicate that
the method can be called. If pager' vm objects can be shadowed, pager
must implement the traditional getpages() method in addition to the
populate(). Populate() might fall back to the getpages() on per-call
basis as well, by returning VM_PAGER_BAD error code.
For now for device pagers, the populate() method is only allowed to be
used by the managed device pagers, but the limitation is only made
because there is no unmanaged fault handlers which could use it right
now.

o With new KPI consumers can request contiguous ranges of pages, and
unlike before, all pages will be kept busied on return, like it was
done before with the 'reqpage' only. Now the reqpage goes away. With
new interface it is easier to implement code protected from race
conditions.
Such arrayed requests for now should be preceeded by a call to
vm_pager_haspage() to make sure that request is possible. This
could be improved later, making vm_pager_haspage() obsolete.
Strenghtening the promises on the business of the array of pages
allows us to remove such hacks as swp_pager_free_nrpage() and
vm_pager_free_nonreq().
o New KPI accepts two integer pointers that may optionally point at
values for read ahead and read behind, that a pager may do, if it
can. These pages are completely owned by pager, and not controlled
by the caller.
This shifts the UFS-specific readahead logic from vm_fault.c, which
should be file system agnostic, into vnode_pager.c. It also removes
one VOP_BMAP() request per hard fault.

The change is mostly mechanical but few notes are reported:
* The KPI changes as follow:
- VM_OBJECT_LOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_TRYLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_TRYWLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_UNLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WUNLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_LOCK_ASSERT(MA_OWNED) -> VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_WLOCKED()

- The read-mode operations are added:
VM_OBJECT_RLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_TRYRLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_RUNLOCK(),
VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_RLOCKED(), VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_LOCKED()
* The vm/vm_pager.h namespace pollution avoidance (forcing requiring
sys/mutex.h in consumers directly to cater its inlining functions
using VM_OBJECT_LOCK()) imposes that all the vm/vm_pager.h
consumers now must include also sys/rwlock.h.
* zfs requires a quite convoluted fix to include FreeBSD rwlocks into
the compat layer because the name clash between FreeBSD and solaris
versions must be avoided.
At this purpose zfs redefines the vm_object locking functions
directly, isolating the FreeBSD components in specific compat stubs.
The KPI results heavilly broken by this commit. Thirdy part ports must
be updated accordingly (I can think off-hand of VirtualBox, for example).

in devfs if a particular race condition is hit in the device pager
code.
This was a side effect of change 227530 which changed the device
pager interface to call a new destructor routine for the cdev.
That destructor routine, old_dev_pager_dtor(), takes a VM object
handle.
The object handle is cast to a struct cdev *, and passed into
dev_rel().
That works in most cases, except the case in cdev_pager_allocate()
where there is a race condition between two threads allocating an
object backed by the same device. The loser of the race
deallocates its object at the end of the function.
The problem is that before inserting the object into the
dev_pager_object_list, the object's handle is changed from the
struct cdev pointer to the object's own address. This is to avoid
conflicts with the winner of the race, which already inserted an
object in the list with a handle that is a pointer to the same cdev
structure.
The object is then passed to vm_object_deallocate(), and eventually
makes its way down to old_dev_pager_dtor(). That function passes
the handle pointer (which is actually a VM object, not a struct
cdev as usual) into dev_rel(). dev_rel() decrements the reference
count in the assumed struct cdev (which happens to be 0), and
that triggers the assertion in dev_rel() that the reference count
is greater than or equal to 0.
The fix is to add a cdev pointer to the VM object, and use that
pointer when calling the cdev_pg_dtor() routine.
vm_object.h: Add a struct cdev pointer to the VM object
structure.
device_pager.c: In cdev_pager_allocate(), populate the new cdev
pointer.
In dev_pager_dealloc(), use the new cdev pointer
when calling the object's cdev_pg_dtor() routine.

support for these functions on amd64 and i386 and stubs for them on
the other architectures. The function pmap_page_set_memattr() is also
responsible for any other machine-dependent aspects of changing a
page's memory attributes, such as flushing the cache or updating the
direct map. The uses include kmem_alloc_contig(), vm_page_alloc(),
and the device pager:
kmem_alloc_contig() can now be used to allocate kernel memory with
non-default memory attributes on amd64 and i386.
vm_page_alloc() and the device pager will set the memory attributes
for the real or fictitious page according to the object's default
memory attributes.
Update the various pmap functions on amd64 and i386 that map pages to
incorporate each page's memory attributes in the mapping.
Notes: (1) Inherent to this design are safety features that prevent
the specification of inconsistent memory attributes by different
mappings on amd64 and i386. In addition, the device pager provides a
warning when a device driver creates a fictitious page with memory
attributes that are inconsistent with the real page that the
fictitious page is an alias for. (2) Storing the machine-dependent
memory attributes for amd64 and i386 as a dedicated "int" in "struct
md_page" represents a compromise between space efficiency and the ease
of MFCing these changes to RELENG_7.

The accounting information (charge) is associated with either map entry,

from entry to object on allocation of the object, e.g. during the mmap,
assuming the object is allocated, or on the first page fault on the
entry. It moves back to the entry on forks due to COW setup.
The per-entry granularity of accounting makes the charge process fair
for processes that change uid during lifetime, and decrements charge
for proper uid when region is unmapped.
The interface of vm_pager_allocate(9) is extended by adding struct ucred *,
that is used to charge appropriate uid when allocation if performed by

allowed to return a doomed object, i.e., an object with OBJ_DEAD set,

vm_object_terminate() holds the doomed object's lock and sets OBJ_DEAD
on the object. Pa in dev_pager_alloc() holds dev_pager_sx and calls
vm_pager_object_lookup(), which returns the doomed object. Next, Pa
calls vm_object_reference(), which requires the doomed object's lock, so
Pa waits for Pt to release the doomed object's lock. Pt proceeds to the
point in vm_object_terminate() where it releases the doomed object's
lock. Pa is now able to complete vm_object_reference() because it can
now complete the acquisition of the doomed object's lock. So, now the
doomed object has a reference count of one! Pa releases dev_pager_sx
and returns the doomed object from dev_pager_alloc(). Pt now acquires
dev_pager_mtx, removes the doomed object from dev_pager_object_list,
releases dev_pager_mtx, and finally calls uma_zfree with the doomed
object. However, the doomed object is still in use by Pa.
Repeating my key point, vm_pager_object_lookup() must not return a

doomed or not, and the increment of the object's reference count
