by myself. It solves a serious vm_map corruption problem that can occur with the buffer cache when block sizes > 64K are used. This code has been heavily tested in -stable but only tested somewhat on -current. An MFC will occur in a few days. My additions include the vm_map_simplify_entry() and minor buffer cache boundry case fix. Make the buffer cache use a system map for buffer cache KVM rather then a normal map. Ensure that VM objects are not allocated for system maps. There were cases where a buffer map could wind up with a backing VM object -- normally harmless, but this could also result in the buffer cache blocking in places where it assumes no blocking will occur, possibly resulting in corrupted maps. Fix a minor boundry case in the buffer cache size limit is reached that could result in non-optimal code. Add vm_map_simplify_entry() calls to prevent 'creeping proliferation' of vm_map_entry's in the buffer cache's vm_map. Previously only a simple linear optimization was made. (The buffer vm_map typically has only a handful of vm_map_entry's. This stabilizes it at that level permanently). PR: 20609 Submitted by: (Tor Egge) tegge |

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 ``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/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 have to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/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.
