- Remove all attempts to guess physical temperature using DiodeOffset.
There are too many reports that it varies wildly depending on motherboard.
Instead, if it is known to scale well and its offset is known from other
temperature sensors on board, the user may set "dev.amdtemp.0.sensor_offset"
tunable to compensate the difference. Document the caveats in amdtemp(4).
- Add a quirk for Socket AM2 Revision G processors. These processors are
known to have a different offset according to Linux k8temp driver.
- Warn about Family 10h Erratum 319. These processors have broken sensors.
- Report temperature in more logical orders under dev.amdtemp node. For
example, "dev.amdtemp.0.sensor0.core0" is now "dev.amdtemp.0.core0.sensor0".
- Replace K8, K10 and K11 with official processor names in amdtemp(4).
v_writecount. Keep the amount of the virtual address space used by
the mappings in the new vm_object un_pager.vnp.writemappings
counter. The vnode v_writecount is incremented when writemappings gets
non-zero value, and decremented when writemappings is returned to
zero.
Writeable shared vnode-backed mappings are accounted for in vm_mmap(),
and vm_map_insert() is instructed to set MAP_ENTRY_VN_WRITECNT flag on
the created map entry. During deferred map entry deallocation,
vm_map_process_deferred() checks for MAP_ENTRY_VN_WRITECOUNT and
decrements writemappings for the vm object.
Now, the writeable mount cannot be demoted to read-only while
writeable shared mappings of the vnodes from the mount point
exist. Also, execve(2) fails for such files with ETXTBUSY, as it
should be.

"panic in 8.3-PRERELEASE" on Feb. 22, 2012. This panic was caused
by use of a mix of tsleep() and msleep() calls on the same event
in the new NFS server DRC code. It did "mtx_unlock(); tsleep();"
in two places, which kib@ noted introduced a slight risk that the
wakeup() would occur before the tsleep(), resulting in a 10sec
delay before waking up. This patch fixes the problem by replacing
"mtx_unlock(); tsleep();" with mtx_sleep(..PDROP..). It also
changes a nfsmsleep() call to mtx_sleep() so that the code uses
mtx_sleep() consistently within the file.

There are unfortunately a number of situations where vap->iv_bss is changed

be doing work (and the vap->iv_bss access isn't at all done behind any kind
of lock), it's quite possible that:
* a change will occur in one thread - eg, by a call through
ieee80211_sta_join1();
* a state change occurs in another thread - eg an RX is scheduled
in the ath tasklet and it calls ieee80211_input_mimo_all(), which
does dereference vap->iv_bss;
* these two executing concurrently, causing things to explode.
Another instance is ath_beacon_alloc() which takes an ieee80211_node *.
It's called with the vap->iv_bss node from ath_newstate(). If the node has
changed in the meantime (say it's been freed elsewhere) the reference
that it grabbed _before_ refcounting it may be stale.
I would _prefer_ that these sorts of things were serialised somewhere but

- Increase probing order for ECDT table to match HID-based probing.
- Decrease probing order for HPET table to match HID-based probing.
- Decrease probing order for CPUs and system resources.
- Fix ACPI_DEV_BASE_ORDER to reflect the reality.
every 30 seconds. This spike in I/O caused the system to pause every
30 seconds which was quite annoying. So, the way that sync worked
was changed so that when a vnode was first dirtied, it was put on
a 30-second cleaning queue (see the syncer_workitem_pending queues
in kern/vfs_subr.c). If the file has not been written or deleted
after 30 seconds, the syncer pushes it out. As the syncer runs once
per second, dirty files are trickled out slowly over the 30-second
period instead of all at once by a call to sync(2).
The one drawback to this is that it does not cover the filesystem
metadata. To handle the metadata, vfs_allocate_syncvnode() is called
to create a "filesystem syncer vnode" at mount time which cycles
around the cleaning queue being sync'ed every 30 seconds. In the
original design, the only things it would sync for UFS were the
filesystem metadata: inode blocks, cylinder group bitmaps, and the
superblock (e.g., by VOP_FSYNC'ing devvp, the device vnode from
which the filesystem is mounted).
Somewhere in its path to integration with FreeBSD the flushing of
the filesystem syncer vnode got changed to sync every vnode associated
with the filesystem. The result of this change is to return to the
old filesystem-wide flush every 30-seconds behavior and makes the
whole 30-second delay per vnode useless.
This change goes back to the originally intended trickle out sync
behavior. Key to ensuring that all the intended semantics are
preserved (e.g., that all inode updates get flushed within a bounded
period of time) is that all inode modifications get pushed to their
corresponding inode blocks so that the metadata flush by the
filesystem syncer vnode gets them to the disk in a timely way.
Thanks to Konstantin Belousov (kib@) for doing the audit and commit
-r231122 which ensures that all of these updates are being made.

a credential structure would corrupt it. This happened when the
p argument was != NULL. However, I now realize that the copying of
open credentials should only happen for p == NULL, since that indicates
that it is a read-ahead or write-behind. This patch fixes this.
After this commit, r228827 could be reverted, but I think the code is
clearer and safer with the patch, so I am going to leave it in.
Without this patch, it was possible that a NFSv4 VOP_SETATTR() could have
changed the credentials of the caller. This would have happened if
the process doing the VOP_SETATTR() did not have the file open, but
some other process running as a different uid had the file open for writing
at the same time.
