Panic instead of looping forever in sbflush(). If sb_mbcnt counts
more mbufs than sb_cc counts bytes, the original code can turn into an
infinite loop of removing 0 bytes from the socket buffer until it's empty.
the NFSv3 ACCESS RPC problems a little for busy clients that do a lot of
open/close. The nfs code could probably cache the results, but I'm not
sure whether this would be legal or useful. The problem is that with
a CPU farm, on each open there would be a lookup, getattr then access RPC
then the read/write RPC activity. Caching the access results probably
isn't going to help much if the clients access lots of files. Having the
nfs_access() routine interpret the getattr results is a bit of a hack, but
it's how NFSv2 is done and it might be OK for a mount attribute for v3.
- Use TAILQ_* macros extensively instead of internal names
- use b_xflags instead of the NOLIST magic number hack in the next pointer
- clean bufs are inserted at the tail rather than the head.
- redo dirty buffer insert so that metadata (negative lbn) goes to the
tail directly rather than at the HEAD. This makes a difference when
inserting dirty data blocks in lbn sorted order since data block
insertion will not have to bypass all the metadata cruft. data is
lbn sorted since it makes sense for clustering and writeback ordering,
while metadata sorting doesn't help much since the lbn's are
meaningless when walking the list for writebacks.
Small systems will not notice much (if any) benefit from this, but really
busy systems with large dirty block lists should get a lot more.
I've tested this with softdep, and it doesn't seem to mind the change of
queueing of metadata.

While here, have vfs_msync() only call vm_object_page_clean() with
OBJPC_SYNC if called with MNT_WAIT flags. vfs_msync() is called at unmount
time (with MNT_WAIT) and from the syncer process (formerly update).
This should make dirty mmap writebacks a little less nasty.
I have tested this a little with SOFTUPDATES enabled, but I don't normally
use it since I've been badly burned too many times.

Remove cpu_power_down, and replace it with an entry at the end of the

clear if the check is necessary, but vfs_object_create() is called
for all vnodes and it was silly to create objects for VBLK vnodes
that don't even have a driver.
- dev != NODEV was checked for, but 0 was returned on failure. This was
fixed in Lite2 (except the return code was still slightly wrong (ENODEV
instead of ENXIO)) but the changes were not merged. This case probably
doesn't actually occur under FreeBSD.
- major(dev) was not checked to have a valid non-NULL bdevsw entry. This
caused panics when the driver for the root device didn't exist.
Fixed minor misformattings in bdevvp(). Rev.1.14 consisted mainly of
gratuitous reformattings that seem to have caused many Lite2 merge
errors.

If you have problems with the "calcru" messages and processes being
killed for excessive cpu time, try to increase the NTIMECOUNTER
#define and report your findings.
- Use the system headers method for Elf32/Elf64 symbol compatability
- get rid of the UPRINTF debugging.
- check the ELF header for compatability much more completely
- optimize the section mapper. Use the same direct VM interfaces that
imgact_aout.c and kern_exec.c use.
- Check the return codes from the vm_* functions better. Some return
KERN_* results, not an errno.
- prefault the page tables to reduce startup faults on page tables like
a.out does.
- reset the segment protection to zero for each loop, otherwise each
segment could get progressively more privs. (eg: if the first was
read/write/execute, and the second was meant to be read/execute, the
bug would make the second r/w/x too. In practice this was not a
problem because executables are normally laid out with text first.)
- Don't impose arbitary limits. Use the limits on headers imposed by
the need to fit them into one page.
- Remove unused switch() cases now that the verbose debugging is gone.
I've been using an earlier version of this for a month or so.
This sped up ELF exec speed a bit for me but I found it hard to get
consistant benchmarks when I tested it last (a few weeks ago).
I'm still bothered by the page read out of order caused by the
transition from data to bss. This which requires either part filling the
transition page or clearing the remainder.
a raw partition at a nonzero offset (EINVAL should have been EXDEV;
DIOCSDINFO was broken, and DIOCWDINFO was broken because it depended
on DIOCSDINFO).
A zero offset for the raw partition should probably be enforced in
setdisklabel(), and DIOCWDINFO should probably always be handled by
first calling setdisklabel() so that writedisklabel() doesn't need to
enforce it, but this has never been done; dsioctl() has a special
check. Changes in this commit are limited to dsioctl() to preserve
bug for bug compatibility in drivers that don't use the slice code
(notably the ccd driver, which allows setting a bogus label in
DIOCWDINFO and doesn't undo the setting when writedisklabel() fails).
partition that the label ioctl is being done on just because it has
offset 0, since there is no guarantee that such a partition is large
enough to contain the label. Don't use the wrong raw partition (0
instead of RAW_PART).
This fixes problems rewriting bizarre labels (with a nonzero offset
for the 'a' partition) in newfs(8). Such labels shouldn't normally
be used, but creating them was allowed if the ioctl was done on the
raw partition, and sysinstall creates them if the root partition isn't
allocated first.
Note that allowing write access to a partition other than the one that
has been checked for write access doesn't increase security holes
significantly, since write access to any partition already allows
changing the in-core label.
This fix should be in 3.0R. Rev.1.26 of newfs/newfs.c shouldn't be
in 3.0R.
This is the bulk of the support for doing kld modules. Two linker_sets
were replaced by SYSINIT()'s. VFS's and exec handlers are self registered.
kld is now a superset of lkm. I have converted most of them, they will
follow as a seperate commit as samples.
This all still works as a static a.out kernel using LKM's.
release goes out the door. We know there's a bug in the devstat
implementation in the wd driver, but bde and msmith haven't been able to
fix it yet.
So, disable the printf to avoid confusing/worrying people.

1) The vnode pager wasn't properly tracking the file size due to
"size" being page rounded in some cases and not in others.
This sometimes resulted in corrupted files. First noticed by
Terry Lambert.
Fixed by changing the "size" pager_alloc parameter to be a 64bit
byte value (as opposed to a 32bit page index) and changing the
pagers and their callers to deal with this properly.
2) Fixed a bogus type cast in round_page() and trunc_page() that
caused some 64bit offsets and sizes to be scrambled. Removing
the cast required adding casts at a few dozen callers.
There may be problems with other bogus casts in close-by
macros. A quick check seemed to indicate that those were okay,
however.
things, like msdosfs, do not work (panic) on devices with VMIO enabled.
FFS enable VMIO on mounted devices, and nothing previously disabled it, so,
after you mounted FFS floppy, you could not mount msdosfs floppy anymore...)
This is mostly a quick before-release fix.

Drastically quieten down the verbose load progress messages. They were
more useful for debugging than anything, but are beyond a joke when loading
a few dozen modules.
Simplify the ELF extended symbol table load format. Just take the main
symbol table and the string table that corresponds. This is what we will
be getting local symbols from. (needed for the alpha stack tracebacks).
Use the (optional) full symbol tables in lookups. This means we have to
furhter distinguish between symbols that can come from the dynamic linking
table and the complete table.
The alpha boot code now needs to be adapted as ddb/db_elf.c cannot use
the simpler format.
I have not implemented loading the extended symbol tables from the syscall
interface yet, just for preloaded modules.
I am not sure about the symbol resolution. I *think* it's possible that
a local symbol can be found in preference to a global, depending on the
search sequence and dependency tree.
