- Remove the buftimelock mutex and acquire the buf's interlock to protect
these fields instead.
- Hold the vnode interlock while locking bufs on the clean/dirty queues.
This reduces some cases from one BUF_LOCK with a LK_NOWAIT and another
BUF_LOCK with a LK_TIMEFAIL to a single lock.

all clients use data sizes of 16k or less for UDP transport (FreeBSD's
client defaults to 8k and never exceeds 16k), as this bug has been
present ever since NFSv3 support was added.

nfsm_srvpathsiz. This macro plucks a length out of an rpc request and
verifies that its size does not exceed NFS_MAXPATHLEN. If it does
it generates an ENAMETOOLONG response.
- Use this macro, and the existing nfsm_srvnamsiz macro in two places
where we deal with paths passed in by the client.
This fixes a linux interoperability bug. Linux was sending oversized path
components which would cause us to ignore the request all together. This
causes linux to hang indefinitly while it waits for a response. This
could still happen in other cases where we error out with EBADRPC.

methodology similar to the vm_map_entry splay and the VM splay that Alan
Cox is working on. Extensive testing has appeared to have shown no
increase in overhead.
Disadvantages
Dirties more cache lines during lookups.
Not as fast as a hash table lookup (but still N log N and optimal
when there is locality of reference).
Advantages
vnode->v_dirtyblkhd is now perfectly sorted, making fsync/sync/filesystem
syncer operate more efficiently.
I get to rip out all the old hacks (some of which were mine) that tried
to keep the v_dirtyblkhd tailq sorted.
The per-vnode splay tree should be easier to lock / SMPng pushdown on
vnodes will be easier.
This commit along with another that Alan is working on for the VM page
global hash table will allow me to implement ranged fsync(), optimize
server-side nfs commit rpcs, and implement partial syncs by the
filesystem syncer (aka filesystem syncer would detect that someone is
trying to get the vnode lock, remembers its place, and skip to the
next vnode).
Note that the buffer cache splay is somewhat more complex then other splays
due to special handling of background bitmap writes (multiple buffers with
the same lblkno in the same vnode), and B_INVAL discontinuities between the
old hash table and the existence of the buffer on the v_cleanblkhd list.

general cleanup of the API. The entire API now consists of two functions
similar to the pre-KSE API. The suser() function takes a thread pointer
as its only argument. The td_ucred member of this thread must be valid
so the only valid thread pointers are curthread and a few kernel threads
such as thread0. The suser_cred() function takes a pointer to a struct
ucred as its first argument and an integer flag as its second argument.
The flag is currently only used for the PRISON_ROOT flag.

MFC at: earliest convenience
that va_mode of the supplied attributes is filled in with a valid
file mode (i.e not VNOVAL, and only ALLPERM bits set). However,
some NFS server op functions didn't guarantee this for all possible
request messages:
If a V3 client chose not include to a mode specification, we could
end up creating an ffs inode with mode 0177777, requiring a manual
fsck on the next reboot. Fix this by setting va_mode to 0 before
calling the VOP if a mode hasn't been supplied by the client.
In nfsrv_symlink(), S_IFMT bits supplied by a V2 client could end
up in the va_mode passed to VOP_SYMLINK with similar effects. We
now use the macro nfstov_mode() to correctly mask the bits.
semantics of the nfsm_reply() macro were changed so that the caller
has to explicitly handle the V2 error case, whereas before,
nfsm_reply() did a `goto nfsmout' then. A few server ops (setattr,
readlink, create, mkdir) weren't updated to match, so errors in the
V2 case could cause protocol hangs and leaked mbufs.
Correct some comments that describe the old nfsm_reply behaviour.

temporary storage. In the old NFS code it wasn't at all clear if
the value of `tl' was used across or after macro calls, but I'm
fairly confident that the convention was to keep its use local.
Each ex-macro function now uses a local version of this variable,
so all of the double-indirection goes away.
The only exception to the `local use' rule for `tl' is nfsm_clget(),
which is left unchanged by this commit.

This is achieved by replacing the erroneous return statements with
code that jumps forward to the op function's reply code. We need

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.

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.

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.
