- Use softdep_waitidle() in unmount and snapshots to block either
operation until the fs is stable.
- Remove softdep worklist processing from the syncer and move it into the
softdep_flush() thread. This thread processes all softdep mounts
once each second and when it is called via the new softdep_speedup()
when there is a resource shortage. This removes the softdep hook
from the kernel and various hacks in header files to support it.

different inode in the same inodeblock will do copy on write checks and lock in
the opposite direction.
The snapshot code force a copy on write of these blocks manually (cf. start of
expunge_ufs[12]) and these inode blocks are later put on snapblklist.
This partial fix is to 'drain' the relevant ffs_copyonwrite() operation after
installing new snapblklist. This is not a 100% solution since a failed block
allocation can cause implicit fsync() which might deadlock before the new
snapblklist has been installed.

stale flag bits left over from before the inode was recycled.
Without this change, a leftover IN_SPACECOUNTED flag could prevent
softdep_freefile() and softdep_releasefile() from incrementing
fs_pendinginodes. Because handle_workitem_freefile() unconditionally
decrements fs_pendinginodes, a negative value could be reported at
file system unmount time with a message like:
unmount pending error: blocks 0 files -3
The pending block count in fs_pendingblocks could also be negative
for similar reasons. These errors can cause the data returned by
statfs() to be slightly incorrect. Some other cleanup code in
softdep_releasefile() could also be incorrectly bypassed.

Add a new private thread flag to indicate that the thread should
not sleep if runningbufspace is too large.
Set this flag on the bufdaemon and syncer threads so that they skip
the waitrunningbufspace() call in bufwrite() rather than than
checking the proc pointer vs. the known proc pointers for these two
threads. A way of preventing these threads from being starved for
I/O but still placing limits on their outstanding I/O would be
desirable.
Set this flag in ffs_copyonwrite() to prevent bufwrite() calls from
blocking on the runningbufspace check while holding snaplk. This
prevents snaplk from being held for an arbitrarily long period of
time if runningbufspace is high and greatly reduces the contention
for snaplk. The disadvantage is that ffs_copyonwrite() can start
a large amount of I/O if there are a large number of snapshots,
which could cause a deadlock in other parts of the code.
Call runningbufwakeup() in ffs_copyonwrite() to decrement runningbufspace
before attempting to grab snaplk so that I/O requests waiting on
snaplk are not counted in runningbufspace as being in-progress.
Increment runningbufspace again before actually launching the
original I/O request.
Prior to the above two changes, the system could deadlock if enough
I/O requests were blocked by snaplk to prevent runningbufspace from
falling below lorunningspace and one of the bawrite() calls in
ffs_copyonwrite() blocked in waitrunningbufspace() while holding
snaplk.

the directory's inode after queuing the dirrem that will decrement
the parent directory's link count. This will force the update of
the parent directory's actual link to actually be scheduled. Without
this change the parent directory's actual link count would not be
updated until ufs_inactive() cleared the inode of the newly removed
directory, which might be deferred indefinitely. ufs_inactive()
will not be called as long as any process holds a reference to the
removed directory, and ufs_inactive() will not clear the inode if
the link count is non-zero, which could be the result of an earlier
system crash.
If a background fsck is run before the update of the parent directory's
actual link count has been performed, or at least scheduled by
putting the dirrem on the leaf directory's inodedep id_bufwait list,
fsck will corrupt the file system by decrementing the parent
directory's effective link count, which was previously correct
because it already took the removal of the leaf directory into
account, and setting the actual link count to the same value as the
effective link count after the dangling, removed, leaf directory
has been removed. This happens because fsck acts based on the
actual link count, which will be too high when fsck creates the
file system snapshot that it references.
This change has the fortunate side effect of more quickly cleaning
up the large number dirrem structures that linger for an extended
time after the removal of a large directory tree. It also fixes a
potential problem with the shutdown of the syncer thread timing out
if the system is rebooted immediately after removing a large directory
tree.

Now that Giant is acquired in uprintf() and tprintf(), the caller no
longer leads to acquire Giant unless it also holds another mutex that
would generate a lock order reversal when calling into these functions.
Specifically not backed out is the acquisition of Giant in nfs_socket.c
and rpcclnt.c, where local mutexes are held and would otherwise violate
the lock order with Giant.
This aligns this code more with the eventual locking of ttys.
Suggested by: bde
as they both interact with the tty code (!MPSAFE) and may sleep if the
tty buffer is full (per comment).
Modify all consumers of uprintf() and tprintf() to hold Giant around
calls into these functions. In most cases, this means adding an
acquisition of Giant immediately around the function. In some cases
(nfs_timer()), it means acquiring Giant higher up in the callout.
With these changes, UFS no longer panics on SMP when either blocks are
exhausted or inodes are exhausted under load due to races in the tty
code when running without Giant.
NB: Some reduction in calls to uprintf() in the svr4 code is probably
desirable.
NB: In the case of nfs_timer(), calling uprintf() while holding a mutex,
or even in a callout at all, is a bad idea, and will generate warnings
and potential upset. This needs to be fixed, but was a problem before
this change.
NB: uprintf()/tprintf() sleeping is generally a bad ideas, as is having
non-MPSAFE tty code.

make the b_iodone callback responsible for setting it if it is needed.
Previously, it was set unconditionally by bufdone() without holding
whichever lock is shared by the b_iodone callback and the corresponding
top-half function. Consequently, in a race, the top-half function could
conclude that operation was done before the b_iodone callback finished.
See, for example, aio_physwakeup() and aio_fphysio().
Note: I don't believe that the other, more widely-used b_iodone callbacks
