Fix null-pointer dereference crash when the system is intentionally
...
run out of KVM through a mmap()/fork() bomb that allocates hundreds
of thousands of vm_map_entry structures.
Add panic to make null-pointer dereference crash a little more verbose.
Add a new sysctl, vm.max_proc_mmap, which specifies the maximum number
of mmap()'d spaces (discrete vm_map_entry's in the process). The value
defaults to around 9000 for a 128MB machine. The test is scaled for the
number of processes sharing a vmspace (aka linux threads). Setting
the value to 0 disables the feature.

Add MAP_NOSYNC feature to mmap(), and MADV_NOSYNC and MADV_AUTOSYNC to
...
madvise().
This feature prevents the update daemon from gratuitously flushing
dirty pages associated with a mapped file-backed region of memory. The
system pager will still page the memory as necessary and the VM system
will still be fully coherent with the filesystem. Modifications made
by other means to the same area of memory, for example by write(), are
unaffected. The feature works on a page-granularity basis.
MAP_NOSYNC allows one to use mmap() to share memory between processes
without incuring any significant filesystem overhead, putting it in
the same performance category as SysV Shared memory and anonymous memory.
