08442f8a82 Introduce numerous SMP friendly changes to the mbuf allocator. Namely,
introduce a modified allocation mechanism for mbufs and mbuf clusters; one
which can scale under SMP and which offers the possibility of resource
reclamation to be implemented in the future. Notable advantages:

 o Reduce contention for SMP by offering per-CPU pools and locks.
 o Better use of data cache due to per-CPU pools.
 o Much less code cache pollution due to excessively large allocation macros.
 o Framework for `grouping' objects from same page together so as to be able
   to possibly free wired-down pages back to the system if they are no longer
   needed by the network stacks.

 Additional things changed with this addition:

  - Moved some mbuf specific declarations and initializations from
    sys/conf/param.c into mbuf-specific code where they belong.
  - m_getclr() has been renamed to m_get_clrd() because the old name is really
    confusing. m_getclr() HAS been preserved though and is defined to the new
    name. No tree sweep has been done "to change the interface," as the old
    name will continue to be supported and is not depracated. The change was
    merely done because m_getclr() sounds too much like "m_get a cluster."
  - TEMPORARILY disabled mbtypes statistics displaying in netstat(1) and
    systat(1) (see TODO below).
  - Fixed systat(1) to display number of "free mbufs" based on new per-CPU
    stat structures.
  - Fixed netstat(1) to display new per-CPU stats based on sysctl-exported
    per-CPU stat structures. All infos are fetched via sysctl.

 TODO (in order of priority):

  - Re-enable mbtypes statistics in both netstat(1) and systat(1) after
    introducing an SMP friendly way to collect the mbtypes stats under the
    already introduced per-CPU locks (i.e. hopefully don't use atomic() - it
    seems too costly for a mere stat update, especially when other locks are
    already present).
  - Optionally have systat(1) display not only "total free mbufs" but also
    "total free mbufs per CPU pool."
  - Fix minor length-fetching issues in netstat(1) related to recently
    re-enabled option to read mbuf stats from a core file.
  - Move reference counters at least for mbuf clusters into an unused portion
    of the cluster itself, to save space and need to allocate a counter.
  - Look into introducing resource freeing possibly from a kproc.

1f6889a1eb Fix null-pointer dereference crash when the system is intentionally
run out of KVM through a mmap()/fork() bomb that allocates hundreds
    of thousands of vm_map_entry structures.

    Add panic to make null-pointer dereference crash a little more verbose.

    Add a new sysctl, vm.max_proc_mmap, which specifies the maximum number
    of mmap()'d spaces (discrete vm_map_entry's in the process).  The value
    defaults to around 9000 for a 128MB machine.  The test is scaled for the
    number of processes sharing a vmspace (aka linux threads).  Setting
    the value to 0 disables the feature.

477a642cee Man the liferafts! Here comes the long awaited SMP -> -current merge!
There are various options documented in i386/conf/LINT, there is more to
come over the next few days.

The kernel should run pretty much "as before" without the options to
activate SMP mode.

There are a handful of known "loose ends" that need to be fixed, but
have been put off since the SMP kernel is in a moderately good condition
at the moment.

This commit is the result of the tinkering and testing over the last 14
months by many people.  A special thanks to Steve Passe for implementing
the APIC code!

9caaadb63a Changed the way that the exec image header is read to be filesystem-
centric rather than VM-centric to fix a problem with errors not being
detectable when the header is read.
Killed exech_map as a result of these changes.
There appears to be no performance difference with this change.

649c409d03 Fix bug related to map entry allocations where a sleep might be attempted
when allocating memory for network buffers at interrupt time. This is due
to inadequate checking for the new mcl_map. Fixed by merging mb_map and
mcl_map into a single mb_map.

1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
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.

0d94caffca These changes embody the support of the fully coherent merged VM buffer cache,
much higher filesystem I/O performance, and much better paging performance. It
represents the culmination of over 6 months of R&D.

The majority of the merged VM/cache work is by John Dyson.

The following highlights the most significant changes. Additionally, there are
(mostly minor) changes to the various filesystem modules (nfs, msdosfs, etc) to
support the new VM/buffer scheme.

vfs_bio.c:
Significant rewrite of most of vfs_bio to support the merged VM buffer cache
scheme.  The scheme is almost fully compatible with the old filesystem
interface.  Significant improvement in the number of opportunities for write
clustering.

vfs_cluster.c, vfs_subr.c
Upgrade and performance enhancements in vfs layer code to support merged
VM/buffer cache.  Fixup of vfs_cluster to eliminate the bogus pagemove stuff.

vm_object.c:
Yet more improvements in the collapse code.  Elimination of some windows that
can cause list corruption.

vm_pageout.c:
Fixed it, it really works better now.  Somehow in 2.0, some "enhancements"
broke the code.  This code has been reworked from the ground-up.

vm_fault.c, vm_page.c, pmap.c, vm_object.c
Support for small-block filesystems with merged VM/buffer cache scheme.

pmap.c vm_map.c
Dynamic kernel VM size, now we dont have to pre-allocate excessive numbers of
kernel PTs.

vm_glue.c
Much simpler and more effective swapping code.  No more gratuitous swapping.

proc.h
Fixed the problem that the p_lock flag was not being cleared on a fork.

swap_pager.c, vnode_pager.c
Removal of old vfs_bio cruft to support the past pseudo-coherency.  Now the
code doesn't need it anymore.

machdep.c
Changes to better support the parameter values for the merged VM/buffer cache
scheme.

machdep.c, kern_exec.c, vm_glue.c
Implemented a seperate submap for temporary exec string space and another one
to contain process upages. This eliminates all map fragmentation problems
that previously existed.

ffs_inode.c, ufs_inode.c, ufs_readwrite.c
Changes for merged VM/buffer cache.  Add "bypass" support for sneaking in on
busy buffers.

f23b4c91c4 Fix up some sloppy coding practices:
- Delete redundant declarations.
- Add -Wredundant-declarations to Makefile.i386 so they don't come back.
- Delete sloppy COMMON-style declarations of uninitialized data in
  header files.
- Add a few prototypes.
- Clean up warnings resulting from the above.

NB: ioconf.c will still generate a redundant-declaration warning, which
is unavoidable unless somebody volunteers to make `config' smarter.
