This is supposed to be a brief overview of the locking primatives.
It is not yet complete and contains many place-holders for information
I do not know.
The locking is getting so diverse that I've lost track of it all.
We need this page to keep outselves in sync with what the primitives do.

CAM rescan if the ATAPI device entries have not changed.
The ATAPI bus may be reset for a variety of reasons, including any time an
ATAPI request times out. It is not necessary to rescan at the CAM level
in such a case, unless a device has appeared or disappeared, or has
otherwise changed.

marked as requiring debug traces to produce these traces also during

in bus specific structures. This allows us to implement
a SYNC_REG MEMORYBARRIER call (using bus_space_barrier)
and also reduce the amount of bus specific wrapper structure
usages in isp_pci && isp_sbus.

late stages of unmount). On failure, the vnode is recycled.
Add insmntque1(), to allow for file system specific cleanup when
recycling vnode on failure.
Change getnewvnode() to no longer call insmntque(). Previously,
embryonic vnodes were put onto the list of vnode belonging to a file
system, which is unsafe for a file system marked MPSAFE.
Change vfs_hash_insert() to no longer lock the vnode. The caller now
has that responsibility.
Change most file systems to lock the vnode and call insmntque() or
insmntque1() after a new vnode has been sufficiently setup. Handle
failed insmntque*() calls by propagating errors to callers, possibly
after some file system specific cleanup.

The code looks for all the loaded screensaver modules, tries to
kldunload them, and only loads the new one if kldstat's output shows
that there aren't any left. However, the regexp looking for modules
to unload was still searching according to the the old naming scheme,
splash_<name>.ko, instead of <name>_saver.ko.

new interface. In other cases loading the module is unwanted and
can lead to ill side effects. One such effect found is as follows:
"kldunload if_foo" tells the module to kill all its interfaces,
which results in messages sent to devd; the module unloads. Then
devd starts processing the messages, which ends up in a etc script
running ifconfig fooX, which reloads the module.

- ifv_list member of struct ifvlan is unneeded in array mode,
it's used only in hash mode to resolve hash collisions.
- We don't need the list of trunks at all. (The initial reason for
having it was to be able to destroy all trunks in the MOD_UNLOAD
handler, but a trunk is not to be destroyed forcibly -- it will
go away when all vlan interfaces on it have been deleted.
Note that if_clone_detach() called first of all under MOD_UNLOAD
will delete all vlan interfaces and thus make all trunks go away
quietly.)

This breaks both the programming and binary interfaces between pseudofs
and its consumers. It is believed that there are no pseudofs consumers
outside the source tree, so that the impact of this change is minimal.

installed binary in a number of standard locations.
