state transitioning flags and of msleep(9) callings.
Use, instead, an algorithm very similar to what sx(9) and rwlock(9)
alredy do and direct accesses to the sleepqueue(9) primitive.
In order to avoid writer starvation a mechanism very similar to what
rwlock(9) uses now is implemented, with the correspective per-thread
shared lockmgrs counter.
This patch also adds 2 new functions to lockmgr KPI: lockmgr_rw() and
lockmgr_args_rw(). These two are like the 2 "normal" versions, but they
both accept a rwlock as interlock. In order to realize this, the general
lockmgr manager function "__lockmgr_args()" has been implemented through
the generic lock layer. It supports all the blocking primitives, but
currently only these 2 mappers live.
The patch drops the support for WITNESS atm, but it will be probabilly
added soon. Also, there is a little race in the draining code which is
also present in the current CVS stock implementation: if some sharers,
once they wakeup, are in the runqueue they can contend the lock with
the exclusive drainer. This is hard to be fixed but the now committed
code mitigate this issue a lot better than the (past) CVS version.
In addition assertive KA_HELD and KA_UNHELD have been made mute
assertions because they are dangerous and they will be nomore supported
soon.
In order to avoid namespace pollution, stack.h is splitted into two
parts: one which includes only the "struct stack" definition (_stack.h)
and one defining the KPI. In this way, newly added _lockmgr.h can
just include _stack.h.
Kernel ABI results heavilly changed by this commit (the now committed
version of "struct lock" is a lot smaller than the previous one) and
KPI results broken by lockmgr_rw() / lockmgr_args_rw() introduction,
so manpages and __FreeBSD_version will be updated accordingly.

contigmalloc(9) as a last resort to steal pages from an inactive,
partially-used superpage reservation.
Rename vm_reserv_reclaim() to vm_reserv_reclaim_inactive() and
refactor it so that a separate subroutine is responsible for breaking
the selected reservation. This subroutine is also used by
vm_reserv_reclaim_contig().
allows all the INTR_FILTER #ifdef's to be removed from the MD interrupt
code.
- Rename the intr_event 'eoi', 'disable', and 'enable' hooks to
'post_filter', 'pre_ithread', and 'post_ithread' to be less x86-centric.
Also, add a comment describe what the MI code expects them to do.
- On amd64, i386, and powerpc this is effectively a NOP.
- On arm, don't bother masking the interrupt unless the ithread is
scheduled in the non-INTR_FILTER case to match what INTR_FILTER did.
Also, don't bother unmasking the interrupt in the post_filter case if
we never masked it. The INTR_FILTER case had been doing this by having
arm_unmask_irq for the post_filter (formerly 'eoi') hook.
- On ia64, stray interrupts are now masked for the non-INTR_FILTER case.
They were already masked in the INTR_FILTER case.
- On sparc64, use the a NULL pre_ithread hook and use intr_enable_eoi() for
both the 'post_filter' and 'post_ithread' hooks to match what the
non-INTR_FILTER code did.
- On sun4v, retire the ithread wrapper hack by using an appropriate
'post_ithread' hook instead (it's what 'post_ithread'/'enable' was
designed to do even in 5.x).

interface stuff was reworked to avoid other races (bpf_peers_present, etc.)
but now it needs an explicit check to avoid a panic.

o Default to -O on mips as well as arm. -O2 has been strongly implicated
in many problems in the past, so we're taking a conservative approach
until the problems are well understood.

UMA_SLAB_KERNEL for consistency with its sibling UMA_SLAB_KMEM.
(UMA_SLAB_KMAP met its original demise in revision 1.30 of
vm/uma_core.c.) UMA_SLAB_KERNEL is now required by the jumbo frame
allocators. Without it, UMA cannot correctly return pages from the
jumbo frame zones to the VM system because it resets the pages' object
field to NULL instead of the kernel object. In more detail, the jumbo
frame zones are created with the option UMA_ZONE_REFCNT. This causes
UMA to overwrite the pages' object field with the address of the slab.
However, when UMA wants to release these pages, it doesn't know how to
restore the object field, so it sets it to NULL. This change teaches
UMA how to reset the object field to the kernel object.

spinning when readers hold a lock. This spinning is speculative because,
unlike the write case, we can not test whether the owners are running.
- Add speculative read spinning for readers who are blocked by pending
writers while a read lock is still held. This allows the thread to
spin until the write lock succeeds after which it may spin until the
writer has released the lock. This prevents excessive context switches
when readers and writers both hold the lock for brief periods.

fixed pri boost with '1' or any priority less than the current thread's
priority with a value greater than two. Default the boost to
PRI_MIN_TIMESHARE to prevent regular user-space threads from starving
threads in the kernel. This prevents these user-threads from also
being scheduled as if they are high fixed-priority kernel threads.
- Restore the setting of lowpri in tdq_choose(). It has to be either here
or in sched_switch(). I accidentally removed it from both places.

do this either. Simply check P_NOLOAD. It'd be nice if this was
in a thread flag so we didn't have an extra cache miss every time we
add and remove a thread from the run-queue.
