Make vfs_bio buffer mgmt work better.
Buffers were being used after brelse.
Make nfs_getpages work independently of other NFS
interfaces. This eliminates some difficult
recursion problems and decreases pagefault
overhead.
Remove an erroneous vfs_unbusy_pages.
Fix a reentrancy problem, with nfs_vinvalbuf when
vnode is already being rundown.
Reassignbuf wasn't being called when needed under
certain circumstances.

This will not make any of object files that LINT create change; there
might be differences with INET disabled, but hardly anything compiled
before without INET anyway. Now the 'obvious' things will give a

only thing that _should_ work (but can't be made to compile reasonably
easily) is sppp :-(

that come along with this. There are also a few prototypes added when
the need is noticed. Changes include:
1) Cleaning up vref, vget.
2) Removal of the object cache.
3) Nuke vnode_pager_uncache and friends, because they aren't needed anymore.

Rename vn_default_error to vop_defaultop all over the place.
Move vn_bwrite from vfs_bio.c to vfs_default.c and call it vop_stdbwrite.
Use vop_null instead of nullop.
Move vop_nopoll from vfs_subr.c to vfs_default.c
Move vop_sharedlock from vfs_subr.c to vfs_default.c
Move vop_nolock from vfs_subr.c to vfs_default.c
Move vop_nounlock from vfs_subr.c to vfs_default.c
Move vop_noislocked from vfs_subr.c to vfs_default.c
Use vop_ebadf instead of *_ebadf.
Add vop_defaultop for getpages on master vnode in MFS.
1. Add defaults for more VOPs
VOP_LOCK vop_nolock
VOP_ISLOCKED vop_noislocked
VOP_UNLOCK vop_nounlock
and remove direct reference in filesystems.
2. Rename the nfsv2 vnop tables to improve sorting order.
1. Remove VOP_UPDATE, it is (also) an UFS/{FFS,LFS,EXT2FS,MFS}
intereface function, and now lives in the ufsmount structure.
2. Remove VOP_SEEK, it was unused.
3. Add mode default vops:
VOP_ADVLOCK vop_einval
VOP_CLOSE vop_null
VOP_FSYNC vop_null
VOP_IOCTL vop_enotty
VOP_MMAP vop_einval
VOP_OPEN vop_null
VOP_PATHCONF vop_einval
VOP_READLINK vop_einval
VOP_REALLOCBLKS vop_eopnotsupp
And remove identical functionality from filesystems
4. Add vop_stdpathconf, which returns the canonical stuff. Use
it in the filesystems. (XXX: It's probably wrong that specfs
and fifofs sets this vop, shouldn't it come from the "host"
filesystem, for instance ufs or cd9660 ?)
5. Try to make system wide VOP functions have vop_* names.
6. Initialize the um_* vectors in LFS.
(Recompile your LKMS!!!)
1. Add new file "sys/kern/vfs_default.c" where default actions for
VOPs go. Implement proper defaults for ABORTOP, BWRITE, LEASE,
POLL, REVOKE and STRATEGY. Various stuff spread over the entire
tree belongs here.
2. Change VOP_BLKATOFF to a normal function in cd9660.
3. Kill VOP_BLKATOFF, VOP_TRUNCATE, VOP_VFREE, VOP_VALLOC. These
are private interface functions between UFS and the underlying
storage manager layer (FFS/LFS/MFS/EXT2FS). The functions now
live in struct ufsmount instead.
4. Remove a kludge of VOP_ functions in all filesystems, that did
nothing but obscure the simplicity and break the expandability.
If a filesystem doesn't implement VOP_FOO, it shouldn't have an
entry for it in its vnops table. The system will try to DTRT
if it is not implemented. There are still some cruft left, but
the bulk of it is done.
5. Fix another VCALL in vfs_cache.c (thanks Bruce!)
1. Use the default function to access all the specfs operations.
2. Use the default function to access all the fifofs operations.
3. Use the default function to access all the ufs operations.
4. Fix VCALL usage in vfs_cache.c
5. Use VOCALL to access specfs functions in devfs_vnops.c
6. Staticize most of the spec and fifofs vnops functions.
7. Make UFS panic if it lacks bits of the underlying storage handling.
1. Remove comment stating the blatantly obvious.
2. Align in two columns.
3. Sort all but the default element alphabetically.
4. Remove XXX comments pointing out entries not needed.
plus the previous changes to use the zone allocator decrease the useage
of malloc by half. The Zone allocator will be upgradeable to be able
to use per CPU-pools, and has more intelligent usage of SPLs. Additionally,
it has reasonable stats gathering capabilities, while making most calls
inline.
This unifies several times in theory indentical 50 lines of code.
The filesystems have a new method: vop_cachedlookup, which is the
meat of the lookup, and use vfs_cache_lookup() for their vop_lookup
method. vfs_cache_lookup() will check the namecache and pass on
to the vop_cachedlookup method in case of a miss.
It's still the task of the individual filesystems to populate the
namecache with cache_enter().
Filesystems that do not use the namecache will just provide the
vop_lookup method as usual.
writes sent to the server were synchronous and therefore no commits are
needed. This is the same as the vfs.nfs.async variable on the server but
allows each client to choose whether to work this way.
Also make the vfs.nfs.async variable do the 'right' thing for NFSv3, i.e.
pretend that the write was synchronous.

fix involves mallocing an array if there are more than its limited

".." vnode. This is cheaper storagewise than keeping it in the
namecache, and it makes more sense since it's a 1:1 mapping.
2. Also handle the case of "." more intelligently rather than stuff
the namecache with pointless entries.
3. Add two lists to the vnode and hang namecache entries which go from
or to this vnode. When cleaning a vnode, delete all namecache
entries it invalidates.
4. Never reuse namecache enties, malloc new ones when we need it, free
old ones when they die. No longer a hard limit on how many we can
have.
5. Remove the upper limit on namelength of namecache entries.
6. Make a global list for negative namecache entries, limit their number
to a sysctl'able (debug.ncnegfactor) fraction of the total namecache.
Currently the default fraction is 1/16th. (Suggestions for better
default wanted!)
7. Assign v_id correctly in the face of 32bit rollover.
8. Remove the LRU list for namecache entries, not needed. Remove the
#ifdef NCH_STATISTICS stuff, it's not needed either.
9. Use the vnode freelist as a true LRU list, also for namecache accesses.
10. Reuse vnodes more aggresively but also more selectively, if we can't
reuse, malloc a new one. There is no longer a hard limit on their
number, they grow to the point where we don't reuse potentially
usable vnodes. A vnode will not get recycled if still has pages in
core or if it is the source of namecache entries (Yes, this does
indeed work :-) "." and ".." are not namecache entries any longer...)
11. Do not overload the v_id field in namecache entries with whiteout
information, use a char sized flags field instead, so we can get
rid of the vpid and v_id fields from the namecache struct. Since
we're linked to the vnodes and purged when they're cleaned, we don't
have to check the v_id any more.
12. NFS knew about the limitation on name length in the namecache, it
shouldn't and doesn't now.
Bugs:
The namecache statistics no longer includes the hits for ".."
and "." hits.
Performance impact:
Generally in the +/- 0.5% for "normal" workstations, but
I hope this will allow the system to be selftuning over a
bigger range of "special" applications. The case where
RAM is available but unused for cache because we don't have
any vnodes should be gone.
Future work:
Straighten out the namecache statistics.
"desiredvnodes" is still used to (bogusly ?) size hash
tables in the filesystems.
I have still to find a way to safely free unused vnodes
back so their number can shrink when not needed.
There is a few uses of the v_id field left in the filesystems,
scheduled for demolition at a later time.
Maybe a one slot cache for unused namecache entries should
be implemented to decrease the malloc/free frequency.

nfs_sillyrename() self-destructs if you try to sillyrename a directory,
however nfs_rename() can be coerced into doing just that by the above
sequence of commands. To avoid this, nfs_rename() now checks that
v_type of the 'destination' vnode != VDIR before attempting the
sillyrename. The server correctly handles this particular situation
by returning ENOTEMPTY on the rename() attempt.

existing mechanism uses a global queue for some buffers and the
vp->b_dirtyblkhd queue for others. This turns sequential writes into
randomly ordered writes to the server, affecting both read and write
performance. The existing mechanism also copes badly with hung
servers, tending to block accesses to other servers when all the iods
are waiting for a hung server.
The new mechanism uses a queue for each mount point. All asynchronous
i/o goes through this queue which preserves the ordering of requests.
A simple mechanism ensures that the iods are shared out fairly between
active mount points. This removes the sysctl variable vfs.nfs.dwrite
since the new queueing mechanism removes the old delayed write code
completely.
This should go into the 2.2 branch.

1. Clear B_NEEDCOMMIT in nfs_write to make sure that dirty data is
correctly send to the server. If a buffer was dirtied when it was in
the B_DELWRI+B_NEEDCOMMIT state, the state of the buffer was left
unchanged and when the buffer was later cleaned, just a commit rpc was
made to the server to complete the previous write. Clearing
B_NEEDCOMMIT ensures that another write is made to the server.
2. If a server returned a server (for whatever reason) returned an
answer to a write RPC that implied that fewer bytes than requested
were written, bad things would happen.
3. The setattr operation passed on the atime in stead of the mtime to
the server. The fix is trivial.
4. XIDs always started at 0, but this caused some servers (older DEC
OSF/1 3.0 so I've been told) who had very long-lasting XID caches to
get confused if, after a reboot of a BSD client, RPCs came in with a
XID that had in the past been used before from that client. Patch is
to use the current time in seconds as a starting point for XIDs. The
patch below is not perfect, because it requires the root fs to be
mounted first. This is because of the check BSD systems do, comparing
FS time to system time.

This change is null for the i386.
The type has to be `typedef int vop_t(void *)' and not `typedef
int vop_t()' because `gcc -Wstrict-prototypes' warns about the
latter. Since vnode op functions are called with args of different
(struct pointer) types, neither of these function types is any use
for type checking of the arg, so it would be preferable not to use
the complete function type, especially since using the complete
type requires adding 1138 casts to avoid compiler warnings and
another 40+ casts to reverse the function pointer conversions before
calling the functions.
