This support tries to be as parallel as possible with other locking
primitives, but there are differences; more specifically:
- The base witness support is alredy equipped for allowing lock
duplication acquisition as lockmgr rely on this.
- In the case of lockmgr_disown() the lock result unlocked by witness
even if it is still held by the "kernel context"
- In the case of upgrading we can have 3 different situations:
* Total unlocking of the shared lock and nothing else
* Real witness upgrade if the owner is the first upgrader
* Shared unlocking and exclusive locking if the owner is not the first
upgrade but it is still allowed to upgrade
- LK_DRAIN is basically handled like an exclusive acquisition
Additively new options LK_NODUP and LK_NOWITNESS can now be used with
lockinit(): LK_NOWITNESS disables WITNESS for the specified lock while
LK_NODUP enable duplicated locks tracking. This will require manpages
update and a __FreeBSD_version bumping (addressed by further commits).
This patch also fixes a problem occurring if a lockmgr is held in
exclusive mode and the same owner try to acquire it in shared mode:
currently there is a spourious shared locking acquisition while what
we really want is a lock downgrade. Probabilly, this situation can be
better served with a EDEADLK failing errno return.
Side note: first testing on this patch alredy reveleated several LORs
reported, so please expect LORs cascades until resolved. NTFS also is
reported broken by WITNESS introduction. BTW, NTFS is exposing a lock
leak which needs to be fixed, and this patch can help it out if
rightly tweaked.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
