lock specifications in kern/vnode_if.src. At present, this do not
distinguish between exclusive and shared locks, and the kernel is so full
of bugs in this area that running with auto-generation of assertions
enabled makes DEBUG_VFS_LOCKS totally useless for anybody that has used it
for anything prior to outputting automated assertions. Due to this, I made
vnode_if.sh only output locking assertions if you have the environment
variable DEBUG_ALL_VFS_LOCKS set to "YES". In order to actually use the
assertions, you need to also add "options DEBUG_VFS_LOCKS" to your kernel
config file.

have been there in the first place. A GENERIC kernel shrinks almost 1k.
Add a slightly different safetybelt under nostop for tty drivers.
Add some missing FreeBSD tags
fields in struct cdevsw:
d_stop moved to struct tty.
d_reset already unused.
d_devtotty linkage now provided by dev_t->si_tty.
These fields will be removed from struct cdevsw together with
d_params and d_maxio Real Soon Now.
The changes in this patch consist of:
initialize dev->si_tty in *_open()
initialize tty->t_stop
remove devtotty functions
rename ttpoll to ttypoll
a few adjustments to these changes in the generic code
a bump of __FreeBSD_version
add a couple of FreeBSD tags
d_maxio is replaced by the dev->si_iosize_max field which the driver
should be set in all calls to cdevsw->d_open if it has a better
idea than the system wide default.
The field is a generic dev_t field (ie: not disk specific) so that
tapes and other devices can use physio as well.
clustering issues (replacing code that used to be in
ufs/ufs/ufs_readwrite.c). vm_fault also now uses the new VM page counter
inlines.
This completes the changeover from vnode->v_lastr to vm_entry_t->v_lastr
for VM, and fp->f_nextread and fp->f_seqcount (which have been in the
tree for a while). Determination of the I/O strategy (sequential, random,
and so forth) is now handled on a descriptor-by-descriptor basis for
base I/O calls, and on a memory-region-by-memory-region and
process-by-process basis for VM faults.

spaces which cross a segment boundry in the page table. pmap_kextract()
is not designed for access to the user space portion of the page
table and cannot handle the null-page-directory-entry case.
The fix is to have vm_fault_quick() return a success or failure which
is then used to avoid calling pmap_kextract().
improperly ignored the B_INVAL flag when acting on the B_ERROR.
If both B_INVAL and B_ERROR are set the buffer is typically out of the
underlying device's block range and must be destroyed. If only B_ERROR
is set (for a write), a write error occured and operation remains as it
was before: the buffer must be redirtied to avoid corrupting the
filesystem state.

far-reaching in fd-land, so you'll want to consult the code for
changes. The biggest change is that now, you don't use
fp->f_ops->fo_foo(fp, bar)
but instead
fo_foo(fp, bar),
which increments and decrements the fp refcount upon entry and exit.
Two new calls, fhold() and fdrop(), are provided. Each does what it
seems like it should, and if fdrop() brings the refcount to zero, the
fd is freed as well.
Thanks to peter ("to hell with it, it looks ok to me.") for his review.
Thanks to msmith for keeping me from putting locks everywhere :)

The fix to BOOTP is yet another hack. Actually, rootfsid handling
is already a major hack. The whole thing needs to be cleaned up.

compatible, i.e. reads and writes are allowed.
The idea is for a larger crowd to start running with this disabled and
see what problems, if any, crop up, and then to change the default to
off and see if any problems crop up in the next 6 months prior to
potentially removing support entirely. There are still a few people,
Julian and myself included, who believe the buffered block device
access from usermode to be useful.
Remove use of vnode->v_lastr from buffered block device I/O in

a quick think and discussion among various people some form of some of
these changes will probably be recommitted.
The reversion requested was requested by dg while discussions proceed.
PHK has indicated that he can live with this, and it has been agreed
that some form of some of these changes may return shortly after further
discussion.
