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.

Switch the vm_object mutex to be a rwlock. This will enable in the future further optimizations where the vm_object lock will be held in read mode most of the time the page cache resident pool of pages are accessed for reading purposes. The change is mostly mechanical but few notes are reported: * The KPI changes as follow: - VM_OBJECT_LOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WLOCK() - VM_OBJECT_TRYLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_TRYWLOCK() - VM_OBJECT_UNLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WUNLOCK() - VM_OBJECT_LOCK_ASSERT(MA_OWNED) -> VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_WLOCKED() (in order to avoid visibility of implementation details) - The read-mode operations are added: VM_OBJECT_RLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_TRYRLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_RUNLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_RLOCKED(), VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_LOCKED() * The vm/vm_pager.h namespace pollution avoidance (forcing requiring sys/mutex.h in consumers directly to cater its inlining functions using VM_OBJECT_LOCK()) imposes that all the vm/vm_pager.h consumers now must include also sys/rwlock.h. * zfs requires a quite convoluted fix to include FreeBSD rwlocks into the compat layer because the name clash between FreeBSD and solaris versions must be avoided. At this purpose zfs redefines the vm_object locking functions directly, isolating the FreeBSD components in specific compat stubs. The KPI results heavilly broken by this commit. Thirdy part ports must be updated accordingly (I can think off-hand of VirtualBox, for example).

NOTE: libkvm, w, ps, 'top', and any other utility which depends on struct proc or any VM system structure will have to be rebuilt!!! Much needed overhaul of the VM system. Included in this first round of changes: 1) Improved pager interfaces: init, alloc, dealloc, getpages, putpages, haspage, and sync operations are supported. The haspage interface now provides information about clusterability. All pager routines now take struct vm_object's instead of "pagers". 2) Improved data structures. In the previous paradigm, there is constant confusion caused by pagers being both a data structure ("allocate a pager") and a collection of routines. The idea of a pager structure has escentially been eliminated. Objects now have types, and this type is used to index the appropriate pager. In most cases, items in the pager structure were duplicated in the object data structure and thus were unnecessary. In the few cases that remained, a un_pager structure union was created in the object to contain these items. 3) Because of the cleanup of #1 & #2, a lot of unnecessary layering can now be removed. For instance, vm_object_enter(), vm_object_lookup(), vm_object_remove(), and the associated object hash list were some of the things that were removed. 4) simple_lock's removed. Discussion with several people reveals that the SMP locking primitives used in the VM system aren't likely the mechanism that we'll be adopting. Even if it were, the locking that was in the code was very inadequate and would have to be mostly re-done anyway. The locking in a uni-processor kernel was a no-op but went a long way toward making the code difficult to read and debug. 5) Places that attempted to kludge-up the fact that we don't have kernel thread support have been fixed to reflect the reality that we are really dealing with processes, not threads. The VM system didn't have complete thread support, so the comments and mis-named routines were just wrong. We now use tsleep and wakeup directly in the lock routines, for instance. 6) Where appropriate, the pagers have been improved, especially in the pager_alloc routines. Most of the pager_allocs have been rewritten and are now faster and easier to maintain. 7) The pagedaemon pageout clustering algorithm has been rewritten and now tries harder to output an even number of pages before and after the requested page. This is sort of the reverse of the ideal pagein algorithm and should provide better overall performance. 8) Unnecessary (incorrect) casts to caddr_t in calls to tsleep & wakeup have been removed. Some other unnecessary casts have also been removed. 9) Some almost useless debugging code removed. 10) Terminology of shadow objects vs. backing objects straightened out. The fact that the vm_object data structure escentially had this backwards really confused things. The use of "shadow" and "backing object" throughout the code is now internally consistent and correct in the Mach terminology. 11) Several minor bug fixes, including one in the vm daemon that caused 0 RSS objects to not get purged as intended. 12) A "default pager" has now been created which cleans up the transition of objects to the "swap" type. The previous checks throughout the code for swp->pg_data != NULL were really ugly. This change also provides the rudiments for future backing of "anonymous" memory by something other than the swap pager (via the vnode pager, for example), and it allows the decision about which of these pagers to use to be made dynamically (although will need some additional decision code to do this, of course). 13) (dyson) MAP_COPY has been deprecated and the corresponding "copy object" code has been removed. MAP_COPY was undocumented and non- standard. It was furthermore broken in several ways which caused its behavior to degrade to MAP_PRIVATE. Binaries that use MAP_COPY will continue to work correctly, but via the slightly different semantics of MAP_PRIVATE. 14) (dyson) Sharing maps have been removed. It's marginal usefulness in a threads design can be worked around in other ways. Both #12 and #13 were done to simplify the code and improve readability and maintain- ability. (As were most all of these changes) TODO: 1) Rewrite most of the vnode pager to use VOP_GETPAGES/PUTPAGES. Doing this will reduce the vnode pager to a mere fraction of its current size. 2) Rewrite vm_fault and the swap/vnode pagers to use the clustering information provided by the new haspage pager interface. This will substantially reduce the overhead by eliminating a large number of VOP_BMAP() calls. The VOP_BMAP() filesystem interface should be improved to provide both a "behind" and "ahead" indication of contiguousness. 3) Implement the extended features of pager_haspage in swap_pager_haspage(). It currently just says 0 pages ahead/behind. 4) Re-implement the swap device (swstrategy) in a more elegant way, perhaps via a much more general mechanism that could also be used for disk striping of regular filesystems. 5) Do something to improve the architecture of vm_object_collapse(). The fact that it makes calls into the swap pager and knows too much about how the swap pager operates really bothers me. It also doesn't allow for collapsing of non-swap pager objects ("unnamed" objects backed by other pagers).

Introduce a new page queue, PQ_LAUNDRY, for storing unreferenced, dirty pages, specificially, dirty pages that have passed once through the inactive queue. A new, dedicated thread is responsible for both deciding when to launder pages and actually laundering them. The new policy uses the relative sizes of the inactive and laundry queues to determine whether to launder pages at a given point in time. In general, this leads to more intelligent swapping behavior, since the laundry thread will avoid pageouts when the marginal benefit of doing so is low. Previously, without a dedicated queue for dirty pages, the page daemon didn't have the information to determine whether pageout provides any benefit to the system. Thus, the previous policy often resulted in small but steadily increasing amounts of swap usage when the system is under memory pressure, even when the inactive queue consisted mostly of clean pages. This change addresses that issue, and also paves the way for some future virtual memory system improvements by removing the last source of object-cached clean pages, i.e., PG_CACHE pages. The new laundry thread sleeps while waiting for a request from the page daemon thread(s). A request is raised by setting the variable vm_laundry_request and waking the laundry thread. We request launderings for two reasons: to try and balance the inactive and laundry queue sizes ("background laundering"), and to quickly make up for a shortage of free pages and clean inactive pages ("shortfall laundering"). When background laundering is requested, the laundry thread computes the number of page daemon wakeups that have taken place since the last laundering. If this number is large enough relative to the ratio of the laundry and (global) inactive queue sizes, we will launder vm_background_launder_target pages at vm_background_launder_rate KB/s. Otherwise, the laundry thread goes back to sleep without doing any work. When scanning the laundry queue during background laundering, reactivated pages are counted towards the laundry thread's target. In contrast, shortfall laundering is requested when an inactive queue scan fails to meet its target. In this case, the laundry thread attempts to launder enough pages to meet v_free_target within 0.5s, which is the inactive queue scan period. A laundry request can be latched while another is currently being serviced. In particular, a shortfall request will immediately preempt a background laundering. This change also redefines the meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated and removes the functions vm_page_cache() and vm_page_try_to_cache(). The new meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated now better reflects its name. It represents the number of inactive or laundry pages that are returned to the active queue on account of a reference.

Change vm_pageout_scan() to return a value indicating whether the free page target was met. Previously, vm_pageout_worker() itself checked the length of the free page queues to determine whether vm_pageout_scan(pass >= 1)'s inactive queue scan freed enough pages to meet the free page target. Specifically, vm_pageout_worker() used vm_paging_needed(). The trouble with vm_paging_needed() is that it compares the length of the free page queues to the wakeup threshold for the page daemon, which is much lower than the free page target. Consequently, vm_pageout_worker() could conclude that the inactive queue scan succeeded in meeting its free page target when in fact it did not; and rather than immediately triggering an all-out laundering pass over the inactive queue, vm_pageout_worker() would go back to sleep waiting for the free page count to fall below the page daemon wakeup threshold again, at which point it will perform another limited (pass == 1) scan over the inactive queue. Changing vm_pageout_worker() to use vm_page_count_target() instead of vm_paging_needed() won't work because any page allocations that happen concurrently with the inactive queue scan will result in the free page count being below the target at the end of a successful scan. Instead, having vm_pageout_scan() return a value indicating success or failure is the most straightforward fix.

Rework the test which raises OOM condition. Right now, the code checks for the swap space consumption plus checks that the amount of the free pages exceeds some limit, in case pagedeamon did not coped with the page shortage in one of the late passes. This is wrong because it does not account for the presence of the reclamaible pages in the queues which are not selectable for reclaim immediately. E.g., on the swap-less systems, large active queue easily triggered OOM. Instead, only raise OOM when pagedaemon is unable to produce a free page in several back-to-back passes. Track the failed passes per pagedaemon thread. The number of passes to trigger OOM was selected empirically and tested both on small (32M-64M i386 VM) and large (32G amd64) configurations. If the specifics of the load require tuning, sysctl vm.pageout_oom_seq sets the number of back-to-back passes which must fail before OOM is raised. Each pass takes 1/2 of seconds. Less the value, more sensible the pagedaemon is to the page shortage. In future, some heuristic to calculate the value of the tunable might be designed based on the system configuration and load. But before it can be done, the i/o system must be fixed to reliably time-out pagedaemon writes, even if waiting for the memory to proceed. Then, code can account for the in-flight page-outs and postpone OOM until all of them finished, which should reduce the need in tuning. Right now, ignoring the in-flight writes and the counter allows to break deadlocks due to write path doing sleepable memory allocations.

Introduce a new page queue, PQ_LAUNDRY, for storing unreferenced, dirty pages, specificially, dirty pages that have passed once through the inactive queue. A new, dedicated thread is responsible for both deciding when to launder pages and actually laundering them. The new policy uses the relative sizes of the inactive and laundry queues to determine whether to launder pages at a given point in time. In general, this leads to more intelligent swapping behavior, since the laundry thread will avoid pageouts when the marginal benefit of doing so is low. Previously, without a dedicated queue for dirty pages, the page daemon didn't have the information to determine whether pageout provides any benefit to the system. Thus, the previous policy often resulted in small but steadily increasing amounts of swap usage when the system is under memory pressure, even when the inactive queue consisted mostly of clean pages. This change addresses that issue, and also paves the way for some future virtual memory system improvements by removing the last source of object-cached clean pages, i.e., PG_CACHE pages. The new laundry thread sleeps while waiting for a request from the page daemon thread(s). A request is raised by setting the variable vm_laundry_request and waking the laundry thread. We request launderings for two reasons: to try and balance the inactive and laundry queue sizes ("background laundering"), and to quickly make up for a shortage of free pages and clean inactive pages ("shortfall laundering"). When background laundering is requested, the laundry thread computes the number of page daemon wakeups that have taken place since the last laundering. If this number is large enough relative to the ratio of the laundry and (global) inactive queue sizes, we will launder vm_background_launder_target pages at vm_background_launder_rate KB/s. Otherwise, the laundry thread goes back to sleep without doing any work. When scanning the laundry queue during background laundering, reactivated pages are counted towards the laundry thread's target. In contrast, shortfall laundering is requested when an inactive queue scan fails to meet its target. In this case, the laundry thread attempts to launder enough pages to meet v_free_target within 0.5s, which is the inactive queue scan period. A laundry request can be latched while another is currently being serviced. In particular, a shortfall request will immediately preempt a background laundering. This change also redefines the meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated and removes the functions vm_page_cache() and vm_page_try_to_cache(). The new meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated now better reflects its name. It represents the number of inactive or laundry pages that are returned to the active queue on account of a reference.

Rework the test which raises OOM condition. Right now, the code checks for the swap space consumption plus checks that the amount of the free pages exceeds some limit, in case pagedeamon did not coped with the page shortage in one of the late passes. This is wrong because it does not account for the presence of the reclamaible pages in the queues which are not selectable for reclaim immediately. E.g., on the swap-less systems, large active queue easily triggered OOM. Instead, only raise OOM when pagedaemon is unable to produce a free page in several back-to-back passes. Track the failed passes per pagedaemon thread. The number of passes to trigger OOM was selected empirically and tested both on small (32M-64M i386 VM) and large (32G amd64) configurations. If the specifics of the load require tuning, sysctl vm.pageout_oom_seq sets the number of back-to-back passes which must fail before OOM is raised. Each pass takes 1/2 of seconds. Less the value, more sensible the pagedaemon is to the page shortage. In future, some heuristic to calculate the value of the tunable might be designed based on the system configuration and load. But before it can be done, the i/o system must be fixed to reliably time-out pagedaemon writes, even if waiting for the memory to proceed. Then, code can account for the in-flight page-outs and postpone OOM until all of them finished, which should reduce the need in tuning. Right now, ignoring the in-flight writes and the counter allows to break deadlocks due to write path doing sleepable memory allocations.

* We can't clean the page if it is busy or held.
NOTE: libkvm, w, ps, 'top', and any other utility which depends on struct proc or any VM system structure will have to be rebuilt!!! Much needed overhaul of the VM system. Included in this first round of changes: 1) Improved pager interfaces: init, alloc, dealloc, getpages, putpages, haspage, and sync operations are supported. The haspage interface now provides information about clusterability. All pager routines now take struct vm_object's instead of "pagers". 2) Improved data structures. In the previous paradigm, there is constant confusion caused by pagers being both a data structure ("allocate a pager") and a collection of routines. The idea of a pager structure has escentially been eliminated. Objects now have types, and this type is used to index the appropriate pager. In most cases, items in the pager structure were duplicated in the object data structure and thus were unnecessary. In the few cases that remained, a un_pager structure union was created in the object to contain these items. 3) Because of the cleanup of #1 & #2, a lot of unnecessary layering can now be removed. For instance, vm_object_enter(), vm_object_lookup(), vm_object_remove(), and the associated object hash list were some of the things that were removed. 4) simple_lock's removed. Discussion with several people reveals that the SMP locking primitives used in the VM system aren't likely the mechanism that we'll be adopting. Even if it were, the locking that was in the code was very inadequate and would have to be mostly re-done anyway. The locking in a uni-processor kernel was a no-op but went a long way toward making the code difficult to read and debug. 5) Places that attempted to kludge-up the fact that we don't have kernel thread support have been fixed to reflect the reality that we are really dealing with processes, not threads. The VM system didn't have complete thread support, so the comments and mis-named routines were just wrong. We now use tsleep and wakeup directly in the lock routines, for instance. 6) Where appropriate, the pagers have been improved, especially in the pager_alloc routines. Most of the pager_allocs have been rewritten and are now faster and easier to maintain. 7) The pagedaemon pageout clustering algorithm has been rewritten and now tries harder to output an even number of pages before and after the requested page. This is sort of the reverse of the ideal pagein algorithm and should provide better overall performance. 8) Unnecessary (incorrect) casts to caddr_t in calls to tsleep & wakeup have been removed. Some other unnecessary casts have also been removed. 9) Some almost useless debugging code removed. 10) Terminology of shadow objects vs. backing objects straightened out. The fact that the vm_object data structure escentially had this backwards really confused things. The use of "shadow" and "backing object" throughout the code is now internally consistent and correct in the Mach terminology. 11) Several minor bug fixes, including one in the vm daemon that caused 0 RSS objects to not get purged as intended. 12) A "default pager" has now been created which cleans up the transition of objects to the "swap" type. The previous checks throughout the code for swp->pg_data != NULL were really ugly. This change also provides the rudiments for future backing of "anonymous" memory by something other than the swap pager (via the vnode pager, for example), and it allows the decision about which of these pagers to use to be made dynamically (although will need some additional decision code to do this, of course). 13) (dyson) MAP_COPY has been deprecated and the corresponding "copy object" code has been removed. MAP_COPY was undocumented and non- standard. It was furthermore broken in several ways which caused its behavior to degrade to MAP_PRIVATE. Binaries that use MAP_COPY will continue to work correctly, but via the slightly different semantics of MAP_PRIVATE. 14) (dyson) Sharing maps have been removed. It's marginal usefulness in a threads design can be worked around in other ways. Both #12 and #13 were done to simplify the code and improve readability and maintain- ability. (As were most all of these changes) TODO: 1) Rewrite most of the vnode pager to use VOP_GETPAGES/PUTPAGES. Doing this will reduce the vnode pager to a mere fraction of its current size. 2) Rewrite vm_fault and the swap/vnode pagers to use the clustering information provided by the new haspage pager interface. This will substantially reduce the overhead by eliminating a large number of VOP_BMAP() calls. The VOP_BMAP() filesystem interface should be improved to provide both a "behind" and "ahead" indication of contiguousness. 3) Implement the extended features of pager_haspage in swap_pager_haspage(). It currently just says 0 pages ahead/behind. 4) Re-implement the swap device (swstrategy) in a more elegant way, perhaps via a much more general mechanism that could also be used for disk striping of regular filesystems. 5) Do something to improve the architecture of vm_object_collapse(). The fact that it makes calls into the swap pager and knows too much about how the swap pager operates really bothers me. It also doesn't allow for collapsing of non-swap pager objects ("unnamed" objects backed by other pagers).

* We can cluster only if the page is not clean, busy, or held, and
Introduce a new page queue, PQ_LAUNDRY, for storing unreferenced, dirty pages, specificially, dirty pages that have passed once through the inactive queue. A new, dedicated thread is responsible for both deciding when to launder pages and actually laundering them. The new policy uses the relative sizes of the inactive and laundry queues to determine whether to launder pages at a given point in time. In general, this leads to more intelligent swapping behavior, since the laundry thread will avoid pageouts when the marginal benefit of doing so is low. Previously, without a dedicated queue for dirty pages, the page daemon didn't have the information to determine whether pageout provides any benefit to the system. Thus, the previous policy often resulted in small but steadily increasing amounts of swap usage when the system is under memory pressure, even when the inactive queue consisted mostly of clean pages. This change addresses that issue, and also paves the way for some future virtual memory system improvements by removing the last source of object-cached clean pages, i.e., PG_CACHE pages. The new laundry thread sleeps while waiting for a request from the page daemon thread(s). A request is raised by setting the variable vm_laundry_request and waking the laundry thread. We request launderings for two reasons: to try and balance the inactive and laundry queue sizes ("background laundering"), and to quickly make up for a shortage of free pages and clean inactive pages ("shortfall laundering"). When background laundering is requested, the laundry thread computes the number of page daemon wakeups that have taken place since the last laundering. If this number is large enough relative to the ratio of the laundry and (global) inactive queue sizes, we will launder vm_background_launder_target pages at vm_background_launder_rate KB/s. Otherwise, the laundry thread goes back to sleep without doing any work. When scanning the laundry queue during background laundering, reactivated pages are counted towards the laundry thread's target. In contrast, shortfall laundering is requested when an inactive queue scan fails to meet its target. In this case, the laundry thread attempts to launder enough pages to meet v_free_target within 0.5s, which is the inactive queue scan period. A laundry request can be latched while another is currently being serviced. In particular, a shortfall request will immediately preempt a background laundering. This change also redefines the meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated and removes the functions vm_page_cache() and vm_page_try_to_cache(). The new meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated now better reflects its name. It represents the number of inactive or laundry pages that are returned to the active queue on account of a reference.

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.

Switch the vm_object mutex to be a rwlock. This will enable in the future further optimizations where the vm_object lock will be held in read mode most of the time the page cache resident pool of pages are accessed for reading purposes. The change is mostly mechanical but few notes are reported: * The KPI changes as follow: - VM_OBJECT_LOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WLOCK() - VM_OBJECT_TRYLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_TRYWLOCK() - VM_OBJECT_UNLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WUNLOCK() - VM_OBJECT_LOCK_ASSERT(MA_OWNED) -> VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_WLOCKED() (in order to avoid visibility of implementation details) - The read-mode operations are added: VM_OBJECT_RLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_TRYRLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_RUNLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_RLOCKED(), VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_LOCKED() * The vm/vm_pager.h namespace pollution avoidance (forcing requiring sys/mutex.h in consumers directly to cater its inlining functions using VM_OBJECT_LOCK()) imposes that all the vm/vm_pager.h consumers now must include also sys/rwlock.h. * zfs requires a quite convoluted fix to include FreeBSD rwlocks into the compat layer because the name clash between FreeBSD and solaris versions must be avoided. At this purpose zfs redefines the vm_object locking functions directly, isolating the FreeBSD components in specific compat stubs. The KPI results heavilly broken by this commit. Thirdy part ports must be updated accordingly (I can think off-hand of VirtualBox, for example).

This mega-commit is meant to fix numerous interrelated problems. There has been some bitrot and incorrect assumptions in the vfs_bio code. These problems have manifest themselves worse on NFS type filesystems, but can still affect local filesystems under certain circumstances. Most of the problems have involved mmap consistancy, and as a side-effect broke the vfs.ioopt code. This code might have been committed seperately, but almost everything is interrelated. 1) Allow (pmap_object_init_pt) prefaulting of buffer-busy pages that are fully valid. 2) Rather than deactivating erroneously read initial (header) pages in kern_exec, we now free them. 3) Fix the rundown of non-VMIO buffers that are in an inconsistent (missing vp) state. 4) Fix the disassociation of pages from buffers in brelse. The previous code had rotted and was faulty in a couple of important circumstances. 5) Remove a gratuitious buffer wakeup in vfs_vmio_release. 6) Remove a crufty and currently unused cluster mechanism for VBLK files in vfs_bio_awrite. When the code is functional, I'll add back a cleaner version. 7) The page busy count wakeups assocated with the buffer cache usage were incorrectly cleaned up in a previous commit by me. Revert to the original, correct version, but with a cleaner implementation. 8) The cluster read code now tries to keep data associated with buffers more aggressively (without breaking the heuristics) when it is presumed that the read data (buffers) will be soon needed. 9) Change to filesystem lockmgr locks so that they use LK_NOPAUSE. The delay loop waiting is not useful for filesystem locks, due to the length of the time intervals. 10) Correct and clean-up spec_getpages. 11) Implement a fully functional nfs_getpages, nfs_putpages. 12) Fix nfs_write so that modifications are coherent with the NFS data on the server disk (at least as well as NFS seems to allow.) 13) Properly support MS_INVALIDATE on NFS. 14) Properly pass down MS_INVALIDATE to lower levels of the VM code from vm_map_clean. 15) Better support the notion of pages being busy but valid, so that fewer in-transit waits occur. (use p->busy more for pageouts instead of PG_BUSY.) Since the page is fully valid, it is still usable for reads. 16) It is possible (in error) for cached pages to be busy. Make the page allocation code handle that case correctly. (It should probably be a printf or panic, but I want the system to handle coding errors robustly. I'll probably add a printf.) 17) Correct the design and usage of vm_page_sleep. It didn't handle consistancy problems very well, so make the design a little less lofty. After vm_page_sleep, if it ever blocked, it is still important to relookup the page (if the object generation count changed), and verify it's status (always.) 18) In vm_pageout.c, vm_pageout_clean had rotted, so clean that up. 19) Push the page busy for writes and VM_PROT_READ into vm_pageout_flush. 20) Fix vm_pager_put_pages and it's descendents to support an int flag instead of a boolean, so that we can pass down the invalidate bit.

NOTE: libkvm, w, ps, 'top', and any other utility which depends on struct proc or any VM system structure will have to be rebuilt!!! Much needed overhaul of the VM system. Included in this first round of changes: 1) Improved pager interfaces: init, alloc, dealloc, getpages, putpages, haspage, and sync operations are supported. The haspage interface now provides information about clusterability. All pager routines now take struct vm_object's instead of "pagers". 2) Improved data structures. In the previous paradigm, there is constant confusion caused by pagers being both a data structure ("allocate a pager") and a collection of routines. The idea of a pager structure has escentially been eliminated. Objects now have types, and this type is used to index the appropriate pager. In most cases, items in the pager structure were duplicated in the object data structure and thus were unnecessary. In the few cases that remained, a un_pager structure union was created in the object to contain these items. 3) Because of the cleanup of #1 & #2, a lot of unnecessary layering can now be removed. For instance, vm_object_enter(), vm_object_lookup(), vm_object_remove(), and the associated object hash list were some of the things that were removed. 4) simple_lock's removed. Discussion with several people reveals that the SMP locking primitives used in the VM system aren't likely the mechanism that we'll be adopting. Even if it were, the locking that was in the code was very inadequate and would have to be mostly re-done anyway. The locking in a uni-processor kernel was a no-op but went a long way toward making the code difficult to read and debug. 5) Places that attempted to kludge-up the fact that we don't have kernel thread support have been fixed to reflect the reality that we are really dealing with processes, not threads. The VM system didn't have complete thread support, so the comments and mis-named routines were just wrong. We now use tsleep and wakeup directly in the lock routines, for instance. 6) Where appropriate, the pagers have been improved, especially in the pager_alloc routines. Most of the pager_allocs have been rewritten and are now faster and easier to maintain. 7) The pagedaemon pageout clustering algorithm has been rewritten and now tries harder to output an even number of pages before and after the requested page. This is sort of the reverse of the ideal pagein algorithm and should provide better overall performance. 8) Unnecessary (incorrect) casts to caddr_t in calls to tsleep & wakeup have been removed. Some other unnecessary casts have also been removed. 9) Some almost useless debugging code removed. 10) Terminology of shadow objects vs. backing objects straightened out. The fact that the vm_object data structure escentially had this backwards really confused things. The use of "shadow" and "backing object" throughout the code is now internally consistent and correct in the Mach terminology. 11) Several minor bug fixes, including one in the vm daemon that caused 0 RSS objects to not get purged as intended. 12) A "default pager" has now been created which cleans up the transition of objects to the "swap" type. The previous checks throughout the code for swp->pg_data != NULL were really ugly. This change also provides the rudiments for future backing of "anonymous" memory by something other than the swap pager (via the vnode pager, for example), and it allows the decision about which of these pagers to use to be made dynamically (although will need some additional decision code to do this, of course). 13) (dyson) MAP_COPY has been deprecated and the corresponding "copy object" code has been removed. MAP_COPY was undocumented and non- standard. It was furthermore broken in several ways which caused its behavior to degrade to MAP_PRIVATE. Binaries that use MAP_COPY will continue to work correctly, but via the slightly different semantics of MAP_PRIVATE. 14) (dyson) Sharing maps have been removed. It's marginal usefulness in a threads design can be worked around in other ways. Both #12 and #13 were done to simplify the code and improve readability and maintain- ability. (As were most all of these changes) TODO: 1) Rewrite most of the vnode pager to use VOP_GETPAGES/PUTPAGES. Doing this will reduce the vnode pager to a mere fraction of its current size. 2) Rewrite vm_fault and the swap/vnode pagers to use the clustering information provided by the new haspage pager interface. This will substantially reduce the overhead by eliminating a large number of VOP_BMAP() calls. The VOP_BMAP() filesystem interface should be improved to provide both a "behind" and "ahead" indication of contiguousness. 3) Implement the extended features of pager_haspage in swap_pager_haspage(). It currently just says 0 pages ahead/behind. 4) Re-implement the swap device (swstrategy) in a more elegant way, perhaps via a much more general mechanism that could also be used for disk striping of regular filesystems. 5) Do something to improve the architecture of vm_object_collapse(). The fact that it makes calls into the swap pager and knows too much about how the swap pager operates really bothers me. It also doesn't allow for collapsing of non-swap pager objects ("unnamed" objects backed by other pagers).

Introduce a new page queue, PQ_LAUNDRY, for storing unreferenced, dirty pages, specificially, dirty pages that have passed once through the inactive queue. A new, dedicated thread is responsible for both deciding when to launder pages and actually laundering them. The new policy uses the relative sizes of the inactive and laundry queues to determine whether to launder pages at a given point in time. In general, this leads to more intelligent swapping behavior, since the laundry thread will avoid pageouts when the marginal benefit of doing so is low. Previously, without a dedicated queue for dirty pages, the page daemon didn't have the information to determine whether pageout provides any benefit to the system. Thus, the previous policy often resulted in small but steadily increasing amounts of swap usage when the system is under memory pressure, even when the inactive queue consisted mostly of clean pages. This change addresses that issue, and also paves the way for some future virtual memory system improvements by removing the last source of object-cached clean pages, i.e., PG_CACHE pages. The new laundry thread sleeps while waiting for a request from the page daemon thread(s). A request is raised by setting the variable vm_laundry_request and waking the laundry thread. We request launderings for two reasons: to try and balance the inactive and laundry queue sizes ("background laundering"), and to quickly make up for a shortage of free pages and clean inactive pages ("shortfall laundering"). When background laundering is requested, the laundry thread computes the number of page daemon wakeups that have taken place since the last laundering. If this number is large enough relative to the ratio of the laundry and (global) inactive queue sizes, we will launder vm_background_launder_target pages at vm_background_launder_rate KB/s. Otherwise, the laundry thread goes back to sleep without doing any work. When scanning the laundry queue during background laundering, reactivated pages are counted towards the laundry thread's target. In contrast, shortfall laundering is requested when an inactive queue scan fails to meet its target. In this case, the laundry thread attempts to launder enough pages to meet v_free_target within 0.5s, which is the inactive queue scan period. A laundry request can be latched while another is currently being serviced. In particular, a shortfall request will immediately preempt a background laundering. This change also redefines the meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated and removes the functions vm_page_cache() and vm_page_try_to_cache(). The new meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated now better reflects its name. It represents the number of inactive or laundry pages that are returned to the active queue on account of a reference.

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. Submitted by: John Dyson and David Greenman

Introduce a new page queue, PQ_LAUNDRY, for storing unreferenced, dirty pages, specificially, dirty pages that have passed once through the inactive queue. A new, dedicated thread is responsible for both deciding when to launder pages and actually laundering them. The new policy uses the relative sizes of the inactive and laundry queues to determine whether to launder pages at a given point in time. In general, this leads to more intelligent swapping behavior, since the laundry thread will avoid pageouts when the marginal benefit of doing so is low. Previously, without a dedicated queue for dirty pages, the page daemon didn't have the information to determine whether pageout provides any benefit to the system. Thus, the previous policy often resulted in small but steadily increasing amounts of swap usage when the system is under memory pressure, even when the inactive queue consisted mostly of clean pages. This change addresses that issue, and also paves the way for some future virtual memory system improvements by removing the last source of object-cached clean pages, i.e., PG_CACHE pages. The new laundry thread sleeps while waiting for a request from the page daemon thread(s). A request is raised by setting the variable vm_laundry_request and waking the laundry thread. We request launderings for two reasons: to try and balance the inactive and laundry queue sizes ("background laundering"), and to quickly make up for a shortage of free pages and clean inactive pages ("shortfall laundering"). When background laundering is requested, the laundry thread computes the number of page daemon wakeups that have taken place since the last laundering. If this number is large enough relative to the ratio of the laundry and (global) inactive queue sizes, we will launder vm_background_launder_target pages at vm_background_launder_rate KB/s. Otherwise, the laundry thread goes back to sleep without doing any work. When scanning the laundry queue during background laundering, reactivated pages are counted towards the laundry thread's target. In contrast, shortfall laundering is requested when an inactive queue scan fails to meet its target. In this case, the laundry thread attempts to launder enough pages to meet v_free_target within 0.5s, which is the inactive queue scan period. A laundry request can be latched while another is currently being serviced. In particular, a shortfall request will immediately preempt a background laundering. This change also redefines the meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated and removes the functions vm_page_cache() and vm_page_try_to_cache(). The new meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated now better reflects its name. It represents the number of inactive or laundry pages that are returned to the active queue on account of a reference.

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. Submitted by: John Dyson and David Greenman

Introduce a new page queue, PQ_LAUNDRY, for storing unreferenced, dirty pages, specificially, dirty pages that have passed once through the inactive queue. A new, dedicated thread is responsible for both deciding when to launder pages and actually laundering them. The new policy uses the relative sizes of the inactive and laundry queues to determine whether to launder pages at a given point in time. In general, this leads to more intelligent swapping behavior, since the laundry thread will avoid pageouts when the marginal benefit of doing so is low. Previously, without a dedicated queue for dirty pages, the page daemon didn't have the information to determine whether pageout provides any benefit to the system. Thus, the previous policy often resulted in small but steadily increasing amounts of swap usage when the system is under memory pressure, even when the inactive queue consisted mostly of clean pages. This change addresses that issue, and also paves the way for some future virtual memory system improvements by removing the last source of object-cached clean pages, i.e., PG_CACHE pages. The new laundry thread sleeps while waiting for a request from the page daemon thread(s). A request is raised by setting the variable vm_laundry_request and waking the laundry thread. We request launderings for two reasons: to try and balance the inactive and laundry queue sizes ("background laundering"), and to quickly make up for a shortage of free pages and clean inactive pages ("shortfall laundering"). When background laundering is requested, the laundry thread computes the number of page daemon wakeups that have taken place since the last laundering. If this number is large enough relative to the ratio of the laundry and (global) inactive queue sizes, we will launder vm_background_launder_target pages at vm_background_launder_rate KB/s.

Introduce a new page queue, PQ_LAUNDRY, for storing unreferenced, dirty pages, specificially, dirty pages that have passed once through the inactive queue. A new, dedicated thread is responsible for both deciding when to launder pages and actually laundering them. The new policy uses the relative sizes of the inactive and laundry queues to determine whether to launder pages at a given point in time. In general, this leads to more intelligent swapping behavior, since the laundry thread will avoid pageouts when the marginal benefit of doing so is low. Previously, without a dedicated queue for dirty pages, the page daemon didn't have the information to determine whether pageout provides any benefit to the system. Thus, the previous policy often resulted in small but steadily increasing amounts of swap usage when the system is under memory pressure, even when the inactive queue consisted mostly of clean pages. This change addresses that issue, and also paves the way for some future virtual memory system improvements by removing the last source of object-cached clean pages, i.e., PG_CACHE pages. The new laundry thread sleeps while waiting for a request from the page daemon thread(s). A request is raised by setting the variable vm_laundry_request and waking the laundry thread. We request launderings for two reasons: to try and balance the inactive and laundry queue sizes ("background laundering"), and to quickly make up for a shortage of free pages and clean inactive pages ("shortfall laundering"). When background laundering is requested, the laundry thread computes the number of page daemon wakeups that have taken place since the last laundering. If this number is large enough relative to the ratio of the laundry and (global) inactive queue sizes, we will launder vm_background_launder_target pages at vm_background_launder_rate KB/s. Otherwise, the laundry thread goes back to sleep without doing any work. When scanning the laundry queue during background laundering, reactivated pages are counted towards the laundry thread's target. In contrast, shortfall laundering is requested when an inactive queue scan fails to meet its target. In this case, the laundry thread attempts to launder enough pages to meet v_free_target within 0.5s, which is the inactive queue scan period. A laundry request can be latched while another is currently being serviced. In particular, a shortfall request will immediately preempt a background laundering. This change also redefines the meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated and removes the functions vm_page_cache() and vm_page_try_to_cache(). The new meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated now better reflects its name. It represents the number of inactive or laundry pages that are returned to the active queue on account of a reference.

* pass == 0: Update active LRU/deactivate pages

Change vm_pageout_scan() to return a value indicating whether the free page target was met. Previously, vm_pageout_worker() itself checked the length of the free page queues to determine whether vm_pageout_scan(pass >= 1)'s inactive queue scan freed enough pages to meet the free page target. Specifically, vm_pageout_worker() used vm_paging_needed(). The trouble with vm_paging_needed() is that it compares the length of the free page queues to the wakeup threshold for the page daemon, which is much lower than the free page target. Consequently, vm_pageout_worker() could conclude that the inactive queue scan succeeded in meeting its free page target when in fact it did not; and rather than immediately triggering an all-out laundering pass over the inactive queue, vm_pageout_worker() would go back to sleep waiting for the free page count to fall below the page daemon wakeup threshold again, at which point it will perform another limited (pass == 1) scan over the inactive queue. Changing vm_pageout_worker() to use vm_page_count_target() instead of vm_paging_needed() won't work because any page allocations that happen concurrently with the inactive queue scan will result in the free page count being below the target at the end of a successful scan.

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.

Consequently, vm_pageout_worker() could conclude that the inactive queue scan succeeded in meeting its free page target when in fact it did not; and rather than immediately triggering an all-out laundering pass over the inactive queue, vm_pageout_worker() would go back to sleep waiting for the free page count to fall below the page daemon wakeup threshold again, at which point it will perform another limited (pass == 1) scan over the inactive queue. Changing vm_pageout_worker() to use vm_page_count_target() instead of vm_paging_needed() won't work because any page allocations that happen concurrently with the inactive queue scan will result in the free page count being below the target at the end of a successful scan. Instead, having vm_pageout_scan() return a value indicating success or failure is the most straightforward fix.

Rework the test which raises OOM condition. Right now, the code checks for the swap space consumption plus checks that the amount of the free pages exceeds some limit, in case pagedeamon did not coped with the page shortage in one of the late passes. This is wrong because it does not account for the presence of the reclamaible pages in the queues which are not selectable for reclaim immediately. E.g., on the swap-less systems, large active queue easily triggered OOM. Instead, only raise OOM when pagedaemon is unable to produce a free page in several back-to-back passes. Track the failed passes per pagedaemon thread. The number of passes to trigger OOM was selected empirically and tested both on small (32M-64M i386 VM) and large (32G amd64) configurations. If the specifics of the load require tuning, sysctl vm.pageout_oom_seq sets the number of back-to-back passes which must fail before OOM is raised. Each pass takes 1/2 of seconds. Less the value, more sensible the pagedaemon is to the page shortage. In future, some heuristic to calculate the value of the tunable might be designed based on the system configuration and load. But before it can be done, the i/o system must be fixed to reliably time-out pagedaemon writes, even if waiting for the memory to proceed. Then, code can account for the in-flight page-outs and postpone OOM until all of them finished, which should reduce the need in tuning. Right now, ignoring the in-flight writes and the counter allows to break deadlocks due to write path doing sleepable memory allocations.

The buffer queue mechanism has been reformulated. Instead of having QUEUE_AGE, QUEUE_LRU, and QUEUE_EMPTY we instead have QUEUE_CLEAN, QUEUE_DIRTY, QUEUE_EMPTY, and QUEUE_EMPTYKVA. With this patch clean and dirty buffers have been separated. Empty buffers with KVM assignments have been separated from truely empty buffers. getnewbuf() has been rewritten and now operates in a 100% optimal fashion. That is, it is able to find precisely the right kind of buffer it needs to allocate a new buffer, defragment KVM, or to free-up an existing buffer when the buffer cache is full (which is a steady-state situation for the buffer cache). Buffer flushing has been reorganized. Previously buffers were flushed in the context of whatever process hit the conditions forcing buffer flushing to occur. This resulted in processes blocking on conditions unrelated to what they were doing. This also resulted in inappropriate VFS stacking chains due to multiple processes getting stuck trying to flush dirty buffers or due to a single process getting into a situation where it might attempt to flush buffers recursively - a situation that was only partially fixed in prior commits. We have added a new daemon called the buf_daemon which is responsible for flushing dirty buffers when the number of dirty buffers exceeds the vfs.hidirtybuffers limit. This daemon attempts to dynamically adjust the rate at which dirty buffers are flushed such that getnewbuf() calls (almost) never block. The number of nbufs and amount of buffer space is now scaled past the 8MB limit that was previously imposed for systems with over 64MB of memory, and the vfs.{lo,hi}dirtybuffers limits have been relaxed somewhat. The number of physical buffers has been increased with the intention that we will manage physical I/O differently in the future. reassignbuf previously attempted to keep the dirtyblkhd list sorted which could result in non-deterministic operation under certain conditions, such as when a large number of dirty buffers are being managed. This algorithm has been changed. reassignbuf now keeps buffers locally sorted if it can do so cheaply, and otherwise gives up and adds buffers to the head of the dirtyblkhd list. The new algorithm is deterministic but not perfect. The new algorithm greatly reduces problems that previously occured when write_behind was turned off in the system. The P_FLSINPROG proc->p_flag bit has been replaced by the more descriptive P_BUFEXHAUST bit. This bit allows processes working with filesystem buffers to use available emergency reserves. Normal processes do not set this bit and are not allowed to dig into emergency reserves. The purpose of this bit is to avoid low-memory deadlocks. A small race condition was fixed in getpbuf() in vm/vm_pager.c. Submitted by: Matthew Dillon <dillon@apollo.backplane.com> Reviewed by: Kirk McKusick <mckusick@mckusick.com>

Introduce a new page queue, PQ_LAUNDRY, for storing unreferenced, dirty pages, specificially, dirty pages that have passed once through the inactive queue. A new, dedicated thread is responsible for both deciding when to launder pages and actually laundering them. The new policy uses the relative sizes of the inactive and laundry queues to determine whether to launder pages at a given point in time. In general, this leads to more intelligent swapping behavior, since the laundry thread will avoid pageouts when the marginal benefit of doing so is low. Previously, without a dedicated queue for dirty pages, the page daemon didn't have the information to determine whether pageout provides any benefit to the system. Thus, the previous policy often resulted in small but steadily increasing amounts of swap usage when the system is under memory pressure, even when the inactive queue consisted mostly of clean pages. This change addresses that issue, and also paves the way for some future virtual memory system improvements by removing the last source of object-cached clean pages, i.e., PG_CACHE pages. The new laundry thread sleeps while waiting for a request from the page daemon thread(s). A request is raised by setting the variable vm_laundry_request and waking the laundry thread. We request launderings for two reasons: to try and balance the inactive and laundry queue sizes ("background laundering"), and to quickly make up for a shortage of free pages and clean inactive pages ("shortfall laundering"). When background laundering is requested, the laundry thread computes the number of page daemon wakeups that have taken place since the last laundering. If this number is large enough relative to the ratio of the laundry and (global) inactive queue sizes, we will launder vm_background_launder_target pages at vm_background_launder_rate KB/s. Otherwise, the laundry thread goes back to sleep without doing any work. When scanning the laundry queue during background laundering, reactivated pages are counted towards the laundry thread's target. In contrast, shortfall laundering is requested when an inactive queue scan fails to meet its target. In this case, the laundry thread attempts to launder enough pages to meet v_free_target within 0.5s, which is the inactive queue scan period. A laundry request can be latched while another is currently being serviced. In particular, a shortfall request will immediately preempt a background laundering. This change also redefines the meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated and removes the functions vm_page_cache() and vm_page_try_to_cache(). The new meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated now better reflects its name. It represents the number of inactive or laundry pages that are returned to the active queue on account of a reference.

Implement a low-memory deadlock solution. Removed most of the hacks that were trying to deal with low-memory situations prior to now. The new code is based on the concept that I/O must be able to function in a low memory situation. All major modules related to I/O (except networking) have been adjusted to allow allocation out of the system reserve memory pool. These modules now detect a low memory situation but rather then block they instead continue to operate, then return resources to the memory pool instead of cache them or leave them wired. Code has been added to stall in a low-memory situation prior to a vnode being locked. Thus situations where a process blocks in a low-memory condition while holding a locked vnode have been reduced to near nothing. Not only will I/O continue to operate, but many prior deadlock conditions simply no longer exist. Implement a number of VFS/BIO fixes (found by Ian): in biodone(), bogus-page replacement code, the loop was not properly incrementing loop variables prior to a continue statement. We do not believe this code can be hit anyway but we aren't taking any chances. We'll turn the whole section into a panic (as it already is in brelse()) after the release is rolled. In biodone(), the foff calculation was incorrectly clamped to the iosize, causing the wrong foff to be calculated for pages in the case of an I/O error or biodone() called without initiating I/O. The problem always caused a panic before. Now it doesn't. The problem is mainly an issue with NFS. Fixed casts for ~PAGE_MASK. This code worked properly before only because the calculations use signed arithmatic. Better to properly extend PAGE_MASK first before inverting it for the 64 bit masking op. In brelse(), the bogus_page fixup code was improperly throwing away the original contents of 'm' when it did the j-loop to fix the bogus pages. The result was that it would potentially invalidate parts of the *WRONG* page(!), leading to corruption. There may still be cases where a background bitmap write is being duplicated, causing potential corruption. We have identified a potentially serious bug related to this but the fix is still TBD. So instead this patch contains a KASSERT to detect the problem and panic the machine rather then continue to corrupt the filesystem. The problem does not occur very often.. it is very hard to reproduce, and it may or may not be the cause of the corruption people have reported.

Switch the vm_object mutex to be a rwlock. This will enable in the future further optimizations where the vm_object lock will be held in read mode most of the time the page cache resident pool of pages are accessed for reading purposes. The change is mostly mechanical but few notes are reported: * The KPI changes as follow: - VM_OBJECT_LOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WLOCK() - VM_OBJECT_TRYLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_TRYWLOCK() - VM_OBJECT_UNLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WUNLOCK() - VM_OBJECT_LOCK_ASSERT(MA_OWNED) -> VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_WLOCKED() (in order to avoid visibility of implementation details) - The read-mode operations are added: VM_OBJECT_RLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_TRYRLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_RUNLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_RLOCKED(), VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_LOCKED() * The vm/vm_pager.h namespace pollution avoidance (forcing requiring sys/mutex.h in consumers directly to cater its inlining functions using VM_OBJECT_LOCK()) imposes that all the vm/vm_pager.h consumers now must include also sys/rwlock.h. * zfs requires a quite convoluted fix to include FreeBSD rwlocks into the compat layer because the name clash between FreeBSD and solaris versions must be avoided. At this purpose zfs redefines the vm_object locking functions directly, isolating the FreeBSD components in specific compat stubs. The KPI results heavilly broken by this commit. Thirdy part ports must be updated accordingly (I can think off-hand of VirtualBox, for example).

Introduce a new page queue, PQ_LAUNDRY, for storing unreferenced, dirty pages, specificially, dirty pages that have passed once through the inactive queue. A new, dedicated thread is responsible for both deciding when to launder pages and actually laundering them. The new policy uses the relative sizes of the inactive and laundry queues to determine whether to launder pages at a given point in time. In general, this leads to more intelligent swapping behavior, since the laundry thread will avoid pageouts when the marginal benefit of doing so is low. Previously, without a dedicated queue for dirty pages, the page daemon didn't have the information to determine whether pageout provides any benefit to the system. Thus, the previous policy often resulted in small but steadily increasing amounts of swap usage when the system is under memory pressure, even when the inactive queue consisted mostly of clean pages. This change addresses that issue, and also paves the way for some future virtual memory system improvements by removing the last source of object-cached clean pages, i.e., PG_CACHE pages. The new laundry thread sleeps while waiting for a request from the page daemon thread(s). A request is raised by setting the variable vm_laundry_request and waking the laundry thread. We request launderings for two reasons: to try and balance the inactive and laundry queue sizes ("background laundering"), and to quickly make up for a shortage of free pages and clean inactive pages ("shortfall laundering"). When background laundering is requested, the laundry thread computes the number of page daemon wakeups that have taken place since the last laundering.

Otherwise, the laundry thread goes back to sleep without doing any work. When scanning the laundry queue during background laundering, reactivated pages are counted towards the laundry thread's target. In contrast, shortfall laundering is requested when an inactive queue scan fails to meet its target. In this case, the laundry thread attempts to launder enough pages to meet v_free_target within 0.5s, which is the inactive queue scan period.

Rework the test which raises OOM condition. Right now, the code checks for the swap space consumption plus checks that the amount of the free pages exceeds some limit, in case pagedeamon did not coped with the page shortage in one of the late passes. This is wrong because it does not account for the presence of the reclamaible pages in the queues which are not selectable for reclaim immediately. E.g., on the swap-less systems, large active queue easily triggered OOM. Instead, only raise OOM when pagedaemon is unable to produce a free page in several back-to-back passes. Track the failed passes per pagedaemon thread. The number of passes to trigger OOM was selected empirically and tested both on small (32M-64M i386 VM) and large (32G amd64) configurations. If the specifics of the load require tuning, sysctl vm.pageout_oom_seq sets the number of back-to-back passes which must fail before OOM is raised. Each pass takes 1/2 of seconds. Less the value, more sensible the pagedaemon is to the page shortage. In future, some heuristic to calculate the value of the tunable might be designed based on the system configuration and load. But before it can be done, the i/o system must be fixed to reliably time-out pagedaemon writes, even if waiting for the memory to proceed. Then, code can account for the in-flight page-outs and postpone OOM until all of them finished, which should reduce the need in tuning. Right now, ignoring the in-flight writes and the counter allows to break deadlocks due to write path doing sleepable memory allocations.

Implement a low-memory deadlock solution. Removed most of the hacks that were trying to deal with low-memory situations prior to now. The new code is based on the concept that I/O must be able to function in a low memory situation. All major modules related to I/O (except networking) have been adjusted to allow allocation out of the system reserve memory pool. These modules now detect a low memory situation but rather then block they instead continue to operate, then return resources to the memory pool instead of cache them or leave them wired. Code has been added to stall in a low-memory situation prior to a vnode being locked. Thus situations where a process blocks in a low-memory condition while holding a locked vnode have been reduced to near nothing. Not only will I/O continue to operate, but many prior deadlock conditions simply no longer exist. Implement a number of VFS/BIO fixes (found by Ian): in biodone(), bogus-page replacement code, the loop was not properly incrementing loop variables prior to a continue statement. We do not believe this code can be hit anyway but we aren't taking any chances. We'll turn the whole section into a panic (as it already is in brelse()) after the release is rolled. In biodone(), the foff calculation was incorrectly clamped to the iosize, causing the wrong foff to be calculated for pages in the case of an I/O error or biodone() called without initiating I/O. The problem always caused a panic before. Now it doesn't. The problem is mainly an issue with NFS. Fixed casts for ~PAGE_MASK. This code worked properly before only because the calculations use signed arithmatic. Better to properly extend PAGE_MASK first before inverting it for the 64 bit masking op. In brelse(), the bogus_page fixup code was improperly throwing away the original contents of 'm' when it did the j-loop to fix the bogus pages. The result was that it would potentially invalidate parts of the *WRONG* page(!), leading to corruption. There may still be cases where a background bitmap write is being duplicated, causing potential corruption. We have identified a potentially serious bug related to this but the fix is still TBD. So instead this patch contains a KASSERT to detect the problem and panic the machine rather then continue to corrupt the filesystem. The problem does not occur very often.. it is very hard to reproduce, and it may or may not be the cause of the corruption people have reported.

Change vm_pageout_scan() to return a value indicating whether the free page target was met. Previously, vm_pageout_worker() itself checked the length of the free page queues to determine whether vm_pageout_scan(pass >= 1)'s inactive queue scan freed enough pages to meet the free page target. Specifically, vm_pageout_worker() used vm_paging_needed(). The trouble with vm_paging_needed() is that it compares the length of the free page queues to the wakeup threshold for the page daemon, which is much lower than the free page target. Consequently, vm_pageout_worker() could conclude that the inactive queue scan succeeded in meeting its free page target when in fact it did not; and rather than immediately triggering an all-out laundering pass over the inactive queue, vm_pageout_worker() would go back to sleep waiting for the free page count to fall below the page daemon wakeup threshold again, at which point it will perform another limited (pass == 1) scan over the inactive queue. Changing vm_pageout_worker() to use vm_page_count_target() instead of vm_paging_needed() won't work because any page allocations that happen concurrently with the inactive queue scan will result in the free page count being below the target at the end of a successful scan.

Eliminate checks for a page having a NULL object in vm_pageout_scan() and vm_pageout_page_stats(). These checks were recently introduced by the first page locking commit, r207410, but they are not needed. At the same time, eliminate some redundant accesses to the page's object field. (These accesses should have neen eliminated by r207410.) Make the assertion in vm_page_flag_set() stricter. Specifically, only managed pages should have PG_WRITEABLE set. Add a comment documenting an assertion to vm_page_flag_clear(). It has long been the case that fictitious pages have their wire count permanently set to one. Add comments to vm_page_wire() and vm_page_unwire() documenting this. Add assertions to these functions as well. Update the comment describing vm_page_unwire(). Much of the old comment had little to do with vm_page_unwire(), but a lot to do with _vm_page_deactivate(). Move relevant parts of the old comment to _vm_page_deactivate(). Only pages that belong to an object can be paged out. Therefore, it is pointless for vm_page_unwire() to acquire the page queues lock and enqueue such pages in one of the paging queues. Generally speaking, such pages are immediately freed after the call to vm_page_unwire(). Previously, it was the call to vm_page_free() that reacquired the page queues lock and removed these pages from the paging queues. Now, we will never acquire the page queues lock for this case. (It is also worth noting that since both vm_page_unwire() and vm_page_free() occurred with the page locked, the page daemon never saw the page with its object field set to NULL.) Change the panic with vm_page_unwire() to provide a more precise message. Reviewed by: kib@

Additional minor fix to queue.h. Performance enhancements to the pageout daemon. Addition of a wait in the case that the pageout daemon has to run immediately. Slightly modify the pageout algorithm. Significant revamp of the pmap/fork code: 1) PTE's and UPAGES's are NO LONGER in the process's map. 2) PTE's and UPAGES's reside in their own objects. 3) TOTAL elimination of recursive page table pagefaults. 4) The page directory now resides in the PTE object. 5) Implemented pmap_copy, thereby speeding up fork time. 6) Changed the pv entries so that the head is a pointer and not an entire entry. 7) Significant cleanup of pmap_protect, and pmap_remove. 8) Removed significant amounts of machine dependent fork code from vm_glue. Pushed much of that code into the machine dependent pmap module. 9) Support more completely the reuse of already zeroed pages (Page table pages and page directories) as being already zeroed. Performance and code cleanups in vm_map: 1) Improved and simplified allocation of map entries. 2) Improved vm_map_copy code. 3) Corrected some minor problems in the simplify code. Implemented splvm (combo of splbio and splimp.) The VM code now seldom uses splhigh. Improved the speed of and simplified kmem_malloc. Minor mod to vm_fault to avoid using pre-zeroed pages in the case of objects with backing objects along with the already existant condition of having a vnode. (If there is a backing object, there will likely be a COW... With a COW, it isn't necessary to start with a pre-zeroed page.) Minor reorg of source to perhaps improve locality of ref.

Introduce a new page queue, PQ_LAUNDRY, for storing unreferenced, dirty pages, specificially, dirty pages that have passed once through the inactive queue. A new, dedicated thread is responsible for both deciding when to launder pages and actually laundering them. The new policy uses the relative sizes of the inactive and laundry queues to determine whether to launder pages at a given point in time. In general, this leads to more intelligent swapping behavior, since the laundry thread will avoid pageouts when the marginal benefit of doing so is low. Previously, without a dedicated queue for dirty pages, the page daemon didn't have the information to determine whether pageout provides any benefit to the system. Thus, the previous policy often resulted in small but steadily increasing amounts of swap usage when the system is under memory pressure, even when the inactive queue consisted mostly of clean pages. This change addresses that issue, and also paves the way for some future virtual memory system improvements by removing the last source of object-cached clean pages, i.e., PG_CACHE pages. The new laundry thread sleeps while waiting for a request from the page daemon thread(s). A request is raised by setting the variable vm_laundry_request and waking the laundry thread. We request launderings for two reasons: to try and balance the inactive and laundry queue sizes ("background laundering"), and to quickly make up for a shortage of free pages and clean inactive pages ("shortfall laundering"). When background laundering is requested, the laundry thread computes the number of page daemon wakeups that have taken place since the last laundering. If this number is large enough relative to the ratio of the laundry and (global) inactive queue sizes, we will launder vm_background_launder_target pages at vm_background_launder_rate KB/s. Otherwise, the laundry thread goes back to sleep without doing any work. When scanning the laundry queue during background laundering, reactivated pages are counted towards the laundry thread's target. In contrast, shortfall laundering is requested when an inactive queue scan fails to meet its target. In this case, the laundry thread attempts to launder enough pages to meet v_free_target within 0.5s, which is the inactive queue scan period. A laundry request can be latched while another is currently being serviced. In particular, a shortfall request will immediately preempt a background laundering. This change also redefines the meaning of vm_cnt.v_reactivated and removes the functions vm_page_cache() and vm_page_try_to_cache().

Change vm_pageout_scan() to return a value indicating whether the free page target was met. Previously, vm_pageout_worker() itself checked the length of the free page queues to determine whether vm_pageout_scan(pass >= 1)'s inactive queue scan freed enough pages to meet the free page target. Specifically, vm_pageout_worker() used vm_paging_needed(). The trouble with vm_paging_needed() is that it compares the length of the free page queues to the wakeup threshold for the page daemon, which is much lower than the free page target. Consequently, vm_pageout_worker() could conclude that the inactive queue scan succeeded in meeting its free page target when in fact it did not; and rather than immediately triggering an all-out laundering pass over the inactive queue, vm_pageout_worker() would go back to sleep waiting for the free page count to fall below the page daemon wakeup threshold again, at which point it will perform another limited (pass == 1) scan over the inactive queue. Changing vm_pageout_worker() to use vm_page_count_target() instead of vm_paging_needed() won't work because any page allocations that happen concurrently with the inactive queue scan will result in the free page count being below the target at the end of a successful scan. Instead, having vm_pageout_scan() return a value indicating success or failure is the most straightforward fix.

Rework the test which raises OOM condition. Right now, the code checks for the swap space consumption plus checks that the amount of the free pages exceeds some limit, in case pagedeamon did not coped with the page shortage in one of the late passes. This is wrong because it does not account for the presence of the reclamaible pages in the queues which are not selectable for reclaim immediately. E.g., on the swap-less systems, large active queue easily triggered OOM. Instead, only raise OOM when pagedaemon is unable to produce a free page in several back-to-back passes. Track the failed passes per pagedaemon thread. The number of passes to trigger OOM was selected empirically and tested both on small (32M-64M i386 VM) and large (32G amd64) configurations. If the specifics of the load require tuning, sysctl vm.pageout_oom_seq sets the number of back-to-back passes which must fail before OOM is raised. Each pass takes 1/2 of seconds. Less the value, more sensible the pagedaemon is to the page shortage. In future, some heuristic to calculate the value of the tunable might be designed based on the system configuration and load. But before it can be done, the i/o system must be fixed to reliably time-out pagedaemon writes, even if waiting for the memory to proceed. Then, code can account for the in-flight page-outs and postpone OOM until all of them finished, which should reduce the need in tuning.

NOTE: libkvm, w, ps, 'top', and any other utility which depends on struct proc or any VM system structure will have to be rebuilt!!! Much needed overhaul of the VM system. Included in this first round of changes: 1) Improved pager interfaces: init, alloc, dealloc, getpages, putpages, haspage, and sync operations are supported. The haspage interface now provides information about clusterability. All pager routines now take struct vm_object's instead of "pagers". 2) Improved data structures. In the previous paradigm, there is constant confusion caused by pagers being both a data structure ("allocate a pager") and a collection of routines. The idea of a pager structure has escentially been eliminated. Objects now have types, and this type is used to index the appropriate pager. In most cases, items in the pager structure were duplicated in the object data structure and thus were unnecessary. In the few cases that remained, a un_pager structure union was created in the object to contain these items. 3) Because of the cleanup of #1 & #2, a lot of unnecessary layering can now be removed. For instance, vm_object_enter(), vm_object_lookup(), vm_object_remove(), and the associated object hash list were some of the things that were removed. 4) simple_lock's removed. Discussion with several people reveals that the SMP locking primitives used in the VM system aren't likely the mechanism that we'll be adopting. Even if it were, the locking that was in the code was very inadequate and would have to be mostly re-done anyway. The locking in a uni-processor kernel was a no-op but went a long way toward making the code difficult to read and debug. 5) Places that attempted to kludge-up the fact that we don't have kernel thread support have been fixed to reflect the reality that we are really dealing with processes, not threads. The VM system didn't have complete thread support, so the comments and mis-named routines were just wrong. We now use tsleep and wakeup directly in the lock routines, for instance. 6) Where appropriate, the pagers have been improved, especially in the pager_alloc routines. Most of the pager_allocs have been rewritten and are now faster and easier to maintain. 7) The pagedaemon pageout clustering algorithm has been rewritten and now tries harder to output an even number of pages before and after the requested page. This is sort of the reverse of the ideal pagein algorithm and should provide better overall performance. 8) Unnecessary (incorrect) casts to caddr_t in calls to tsleep & wakeup have been removed. Some other unnecessary casts have also been removed. 9) Some almost useless debugging code removed. 10) Terminology of shadow objects vs. backing objects straightened out. The fact that the vm_object data structure escentially had this backwards really confused things. The use of "shadow" and "backing object" throughout the code is now internally consistent and correct in the Mach terminology. 11) Several minor bug fixes, including one in the vm daemon that caused 0 RSS objects to not get purged as intended. 12) A "default pager" has now been created which cleans up the transition of objects to the "swap" type. The previous checks throughout the code for swp->pg_data != NULL were really ugly. This change also provides the rudiments for future backing of "anonymous" memory by something other than the swap pager (via the vnode pager, for example), and it allows the decision about which of these pagers to use to be made dynamically (although will need some additional decision code to do this, of course). 13) (dyson) MAP_COPY has been deprecated and the corresponding "copy object" code has been removed. MAP_COPY was undocumented and non- standard. It was furthermore broken in several ways which caused its behavior to degrade to MAP_PRIVATE. Binaries that use MAP_COPY will continue to work correctly, but via the slightly different semantics of MAP_PRIVATE. 14) (dyson) Sharing maps have been removed. It's marginal usefulness in a threads design can be worked around in other ways. Both #12 and #13 were done to simplify the code and improve readability and maintain- ability. (As were most all of these changes) TODO: 1) Rewrite most of the vnode pager to use VOP_GETPAGES/PUTPAGES. Doing this will reduce the vnode pager to a mere fraction of its current size. 2) Rewrite vm_fault and the swap/vnode pagers to use the clustering information provided by the new haspage pager interface. This will substantially reduce the overhead by eliminating a large number of VOP_BMAP() calls. The VOP_BMAP() filesystem interface should be improved to provide both a "behind" and "ahead" indication of contiguousness. 3) Implement the extended features of pager_haspage in swap_pager_haspage(). It currently just says 0 pages ahead/behind. 4) Re-implement the swap device (swstrategy) in a more elegant way, perhaps via a much more general mechanism that could also be used for disk striping of regular filesystems. 5) Do something to improve the architecture of vm_object_collapse(). The fact that it makes calls into the swap pager and knows too much about how the swap pager operates really bothers me. It also doesn't allow for collapsing of non-swap pager objects ("unnamed" objects backed by other pagers).

Implement a low-memory deadlock solution. Removed most of the hacks that were trying to deal with low-memory situations prior to now. The new code is based on the concept that I/O must be able to function in a low memory situation. All major modules related to I/O (except networking) have been adjusted to allow allocation out of the system reserve memory pool. These modules now detect a low memory situation but rather then block they instead continue to operate, then return resources to the memory pool instead of cache them or leave them wired. Code has been added to stall in a low-memory situation prior to a vnode being locked. Thus situations where a process blocks in a low-memory condition while holding a locked vnode have been reduced to near nothing. Not only will I/O continue to operate, but many prior deadlock conditions simply no longer exist. Implement a number of VFS/BIO fixes (found by Ian): in biodone(), bogus-page replacement code, the loop was not properly incrementing loop variables prior to a continue statement. We do not believe this code can be hit anyway but we aren't taking any chances. We'll turn the whole section into a panic (as it already is in brelse()) after the release is rolled. In biodone(), the foff calculation was incorrectly clamped to the iosize, causing the wrong foff to be calculated for pages in the case of an I/O error or biodone() called without initiating I/O. The problem always caused a panic before. Now it doesn't. The problem is mainly an issue with NFS. Fixed casts for ~PAGE_MASK. This code worked properly before only because the calculations use signed arithmatic. Better to properly extend PAGE_MASK first before inverting it for the 64 bit masking op. In brelse(), the bogus_page fixup code was improperly throwing away the original contents of 'm' when it did the j-loop to fix the bogus pages. The result was that it would potentially invalidate parts of the *WRONG* page(!), leading to corruption. There may still be cases where a background bitmap write is being duplicated, causing potential corruption. We have identified a potentially serious bug related to this but the fix is still TBD. So instead this patch contains a KASSERT to detect the problem and panic the machine rather then continue to corrupt the filesystem. The problem does not occur very often.. it is very hard to reproduce, and it may or may not be the cause of the corruption people have reported.

This set of commits to the VM system does the following, and contain contributions or ideas from Stephen McKay <syssgm@devetir.qld.gov.au>, Alan Cox <alc@cs.rice.edu>, David Greenman <davidg@freebsd.org> and me: More usage of the TAILQ macros. Additional minor fix to queue.h. Performance enhancements to the pageout daemon. Addition of a wait in the case that the pageout daemon has to run immediately. Slightly modify the pageout algorithm. Significant revamp of the pmap/fork code: 1) PTE's and UPAGES's are NO LONGER in the process's map. 2) PTE's and UPAGES's reside in their own objects. 3) TOTAL elimination of recursive page table pagefaults. 4) The page directory now resides in the PTE object. 5) Implemented pmap_copy, thereby speeding up fork time. 6) Changed the pv entries so that the head is a pointer and not an entire entry. 7) Significant cleanup of pmap_protect, and pmap_remove. 8) Removed significant amounts of machine dependent fork code from vm_glue. Pushed much of that code into the machine dependent pmap module. 9) Support more completely the reuse of already zeroed pages (Page table pages and page directories) as being already zeroed. Performance and code cleanups in vm_map: 1) Improved and simplified allocation of map entries. 2) Improved vm_map_copy code. 3) Corrected some minor problems in the simplify code. Implemented splvm (combo of splbio and splimp.) The VM code now seldom uses splhigh. Improved the speed of and simplified kmem_malloc. Minor mod to vm_fault to avoid using pre-zeroed pages in the case of objects with backing objects along with the already existant condition of having a vnode. (If there is a backing object, there will likely be a COW... With a COW, it isn't necessary to start with a pre-zeroed page.) Minor reorg of source to perhaps improve locality of ref.

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.

Locking for the per-process resource limits structure. - struct plimit includes a mutex to protect a reference count. The plimit structure is treated similarly to struct ucred in that is is always copy on write, so having a reference to a structure is sufficient to read from it without needing a further lock. - The proc lock protects the p_limit pointer and must be held while reading limits from a process to keep the limit structure from changing out from under you while reading from it. - Various global limits that are ints are not protected by a lock since int writes are atomic on all the archs we support and thus a lock wouldn't buy us anything. - All accesses to individual resource limits from a process are abstracted behind a simple lim_rlimit(), lim_max(), and lim_cur() API that return either an rlimit, or the current or max individual limit of the specified resource from a process. - dosetrlimit() was renamed to kern_setrlimit() to match existing style of other similar syscall helper functions. - The alpha OSF/1 compat layer no longer calls getrlimit() and setrlimit() (it didn't used the stackgap when it should have) but uses lim_rlimit() and kern_setrlimit() instead. - The svr4 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits calls, but uses lim_rlimit() and kern_setrlimit() instead. - The ibcs2 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits. It also no longer uses the stackgap for accessing sysctl's for the ibcs2_sysconf() syscall but uses kernel_sysctl() instead. As a result, ibcs2_sysconf() no longer needs Giant. - The p_rlimit macro no longer exists. Submitted by: mtm (mostly, I only did a few cleanups and catchups) Tested on: i386 Compiled on: alpha, amd64
