unnecessary and wrong. While it is necessary to verify that the page is
still free after dropping and reacquiring the free page queue lock, the
physical contiguity of the page can not change, making this check
unnecessary. This check was wrong in that it could cause an out-of-bounds
array access.

vm_page_free() is called. The problem with holding this lock is that it is
a spin lock and vm_page_free() may attempt the acquisition of a different
default-type lock.
result in a panic "vm_page_cache: caching a dirty page, ...": Access to the
page must be restricted or removed before calling vm_page_cache(). This
race condition is identical in nature to that which was addressed by
vm_pageout.c's revision 1.251 and vm_page.c's revision 1.275.

free pages queue. This is presently needed by contigmalloc1().
- Move a sanity check against attempted double allocation of two pages
to the same vm object offset from vm_page_alloc() to vm_page_insert().
This provides better protection because double allocation could occur
through a direct call to vm_page_insert(), such as that by
vm_page_rename().
- Modify contigmalloc1() to hold the mutex synchronizing access to the
free pages queue while it scans vm_page_array in search of free pages.
- Correct a potential leak of pages by contigmalloc1() that I introduced
in revision 1.20: We must convert all cache queue pages to free pages
before we begin removing free pages from the free queue. Otherwise,
if we have to restart the scan because we are unable to acquire the
vm object lock that is necessary to convert a cache queue page to a
free page, we leak those free pages already removed from the free queue.
to the object's type field and the call to vm_pageout_flush() are
synchronized.
- The above change allows for the eliminaton of the last parameter
to vm_pageout_flush().
- Synchronize access to the page's valid field in vm_pageout_flush()
using the containing object's lock.
- All those diffs to syscalls.master for each architecture *are*
necessary. This needed clarification; the stub code generation for
mlockall() was disabled, which would prevent applications from
linking to this API (suggested by mux)
- Giant has been quoshed. It is no longer held by the code, as
the required locking has been pushed down within vm_map.c.
- Callers must specify VM_MAP_WIRE_HOLESOK or VM_MAP_WIRE_NOHOLES
to express their intention explicitly.
- Inspected at the vmstat, top and vm pager sysctl stats level.
Paging-in activity is occurring correctly, using a test harness.
- The RES size for a process may appear to be greater than its SIZE.
This is believed to be due to mappings of the same shared library
page being wired twice. Further exploration is needed.
- Believed to back out of allocations and locks correctly
(tested with WITNESS, MUTEX_PROFILING, INVARIANTS and DIAGNOSTIC).

- Add a parameter to vm_pageout_flush() that tells vm_pageout_flush()
whether its caller has locked the vm_object. (This is a temporary
measure to bootstrap vm_object locking.)
where physical addresses larger than virtual addresses, such as i386s
with PAE.
- Use this to represent physical addresses in the MI vm system and in the
i386 pmap code. This also changes the paddr parameter to d_mmap_t.
- Fix printf formats to handle physical addresses >4G in the i386 memory
detection code, and due to kvtop returning vm_paddr_t instead of u_long.
Note that this is a name change only; vm_paddr_t is still the same as
vm_offset_t on all currently supported platforms.

kernel map and object in a manner that contigfree() is actually able to
free. Previously contigfree() freed up the KVA space but could not
unwire & free the underlying VM pages due to mismatched pageability between
the map entry and the VM pages.

Also removed some spl's and added some VM mutexes, but they are not actually
used yet, so this commit does not really make any operational changes
to the system.
vm_page.c relates to vm_page_t manipulation, including high level deactivation,
activation, etc... vm_pageq.c relates to finding free pages and aquiring
exclusive access to a page queue (exclusivity part not yet implemented).
And the world still builds... :-)
