a5296b05b4 Submitted by: Matt Dillon <dillon@freebsd.org>
The old VN device broke in -4.x when the definition of B_PAGING
changed. This patch fixes this plus implements additional capabilities.
The new VN device can be backed by a file ( as per normal ), or it can
be directly backed by swap.

Due to dependencies in VM include files  (on opt_xxx options) the new
vn device cannot be a module yet. This will be fixed in a later commit.

327f4e8394 Limit number of simultanious asynchronous swap pager I/Os that can
be in progress at any given moment.

    Add two swap tuneables to sysctl:

	vm.swap_async_max: 4
	vm.swap_cluster_max: 16

    Recommended values are a cluster size of 8 or 16 pages.  async_max is
    about right for 1-4 swap devices.  Reduce to 2 if swap is eating too much
    bandwidth, or even 1 if swap is both eating too much bandwidth and sitting
    on a slow network (10BaseT).

    The defaults work well across a broad range of configurations and should
    normally be left alone.

e4542174b0 vm_pager_put_pages() is passed an rcval array to hold per-page return
values.  The 'int' return value for the procedure was never used and
    not well defined in any case when there are mixed errors on pages, so
    it has been removed.  vm_pager_put_pages() and associated vm_pager
    functions now return void.

9f6fed9017 The default_pager's interaction with the swap_pager has been reorganized,
and the swap_pager has been completely replaced.

    The new swap pager uses the new blist radix-tree based bitmap allocator
    for low level swap allocation and deallocation.   The new allocator
    is effectively O(5) while the old one was O(N), and the new allocator
    allocates all required memory at init time rather then at allocate
    memory on the fly at run time.

    Swap metadata is allocated in clusters and stored in a hash table,
    eliminating linearly allocated structures.

    Many, many features have been rewritten or added.  Swap space is now
    reallocated on the fly providing a poor-mans auto defragmentation of
    swap space.  Swap space that is no longer needed is freed on a timely
    basis so no garbage collection is necessary.

    Swap I/O is marked B_ASYNC and NFS has been fixed to do the right
    thing with it, so NFS-based paging now has around 10x the performance
    as it did before ( previously NFS enforced synchronous I/O for paging ).

almost always causes this panic for the curproc != pageproc case.

6cde7a165f Fixed two potentially serious classes of bugs:
1) The vnode pager wasn't properly tracking the file size due to
   "size" being page rounded in some cases and not in others.
   This sometimes resulted in corrupted files. First noticed by
   Terry Lambert.
   Fixed by changing the "size" pager_alloc parameter to be a 64bit
   byte value (as opposed to a 32bit page index) and changing the
   pagers and their callers to deal with this properly.
2) Fixed a bogus type cast in round_page() and trunc_page() that
   caused some 64bit offsets and sizes to be scrambled. Removing
   the cast required adding casts at a few dozen callers.
   There may be problems with other bogus casts in close-by
   macros. A quick check seemed to indicate that those were okay,
   however.

8f9110f6a1 This mega-commit is meant to fix numerous interrelated problems. There
has been some bitrot and incorrect assumptions in the vfs_bio code.  These
problems have manifest themselves worse on NFS type filesystems, but can
still affect local filesystems under certain circumstances.  Most of
the problems have involved mmap consistancy, and as a side-effect broke
the vfs.ioopt code.  This code might have been committed seperately, but
almost everything is interrelated.

1)	Allow (pmap_object_init_pt) prefaulting of buffer-busy pages that
	are fully valid.
2)	Rather than deactivating erroneously read initial (header) pages in
	kern_exec, we now free them.
3)	Fix the rundown of non-VMIO buffers that are in an inconsistent
	(missing vp) state.
4)	Fix the disassociation of pages from buffers in brelse.  The previous
	code had rotted and was faulty in a couple of important circumstances.
5)	Remove a gratuitious buffer wakeup in vfs_vmio_release.
6)	Remove a crufty and currently unused cluster mechanism for VBLK
	files in vfs_bio_awrite.  When the code is functional, I'll add back
	a cleaner version.
7)	The page busy count wakeups assocated with the buffer cache usage were
	incorrectly cleaned up in a previous commit by me.  Revert to the
	original, correct version, but with a cleaner implementation.
8)	The cluster read code now tries to keep data associated with buffers
	more aggressively (without breaking the heuristics) when it is presumed
	that the read data (buffers) will be soon needed.
9)	Change to filesystem lockmgr locks so that they use LK_NOPAUSE.  The
	delay loop waiting is not useful for filesystem locks, due to the
	length of the time intervals.
10)	Correct and clean-up spec_getpages.
11)	Implement a fully functional nfs_getpages, nfs_putpages.
12)	Fix nfs_write so that modifications are coherent with the NFS data on
	the server disk (at least as well as NFS seems to allow.)
13)	Properly support MS_INVALIDATE on NFS.
14)	Properly pass down MS_INVALIDATE to lower levels of the VM code from
	vm_map_clean.
15)	Better support the notion of pages being busy but valid, so that
	fewer in-transit waits occur.  (use p->busy more for pageouts instead
	of PG_BUSY.)  Since the page is fully valid, it is still usable for
	reads.
16)	It is possible (in error) for cached pages to be busy.  Make the
	page allocation code handle that case correctly.  (It should probably
	be a printf or panic, but I want the system to handle coding errors
	robustly.  I'll probably add a printf.)
17)	Correct the design and usage of vm_page_sleep.  It didn't handle
	consistancy problems very well, so make the design a little less
	lofty.  After vm_page_sleep, if it ever blocked, it is still important
	to relookup the page (if the object generation count changed), and
	verify it's status (always.)
18)	In vm_pageout.c, vm_pageout_clean had rotted, so clean that up.
19)	Push the page busy for writes and VM_PROT_READ into vm_pageout_flush.
20)	Fix vm_pager_put_pages and it's descendents to support an int flag
	instead of a boolean, so that we can pass down the invalidate bit.

ffc82b0a70 1) Use a more consistent page wait methodology.
2)	Do not unnecessarily force page blocking when paging
	pages out.
3)	Further improve swap pager performance and correctness,
	including fixing the paging in progress deadlock (except
	in severe I/O error conditions.)
4)	Enable vfs_ioopt=1 as a default.
5)	Fix and enable the page prezeroing in SMP mode.

All in all, SMP systems especially should show a significant
improvement in "snappyness."

eaf13dd73a Change the busy page mgmt, so that when pages are freed, they
MUST be PG_BUSY.  It is bogus to free a page that isn't busy,
because it is in a state of being "unavailable" when being
freed.  The additional advantage is that the page_remove code
has a better cross-check that the page should be busy and
unavailable for other use.  There were some minor problems
with the collapse code, and this plugs those subtile "holes."

Also, the vfs_bio code wasn't checking correctly for PG_BUSY
pages.  I am going to develop a more consistant scheme for
grabbing pages, busy or otherwise.  For now, we are stuck
with the current morass.

2d8acc0f4a VM level code cleanups.
1)	Start using TSM.
	Struct procs continue to point to upages structure, after being freed.
	Struct vmspace continues to point to pte object and kva space for kstack.
	u_map is now superfluous.
2)	vm_map's don't need to be reference counted.  They always exist either
	in the kernel or in a vmspace.  The vmspaces are managed by reference
	counts.
3)	Remove the "wired" vm_map nonsense.
4)	No need to keep a cache of kernel stack kva's.
5)	Get rid of strange looking ++var, and change to var++.
6)	Change more data structures to use our "zone" allocator.  Added
	struct proc, struct vmspace and struct vnode.  This saves a significant
	amount of kva space and physical memory.  Additionally, this enables
	TSM for the zone managed memory.
7)	Keep ioopt disabled for now.
8)	Remove the now bogus "single use" map concept.
9)	Use generation counts or id's for data structures residing in TSM, where
	it allows us to avoid unneeded restart overhead during traversals, where
	blocking might occur.
10)	Account better for memory deficits, so the pageout daemon will be able
	to make enough memory available (experimental.)
11)	Fix some vnode locking problems. (From Tor, I think.)
12)	Add a check in ufs_lookup, to avoid lots of unneeded calls to bcmp.
	(experimental.)
13)	Significantly shrink, cleanup, and make slightly faster the vm_fault.c
	code.  Use generation counts, get rid of unneded collpase operations,
	and clean up the cluster code.
14)	Make vm_zone more suitable for TSM.

This commit is partially as a result of discussions and contributions from
other people, including DG, Tor Egge, PHK, and probably others that I
have forgotten to attribute (so let me know, if I forgot.)

This is not the infamous, final cleanup of the vnode stuff, but a necessary
step.  Vnode mgmt should be correct, but things might still change, and
there is still some missing stuff (like ioopt, and physical backing of
non-merged cache files, debugging of layering concepts.)

b9dcd593ff Fixed type mismatches for functions with args of type vm_prot_t and/or

should have used the promoted type (int) to match the old-style function
definitions.  They use just vm_prot_t and/or vm_inherit_t.  This depends
on gcc features to work.  I fixed the definitions since this is easiest.
The correct fix may be to change the small types to u_int, to optimize
for time instead of space.

4f4d35edf0 This commit is meant to solve a couple of VM system problems or
performance issues.

	1) The pmap module has had too many inlines, and so the
	   object file is simply bigger than it needs to be.
	   Some common code is also merged into subroutines.
	2) Removal of some *evil* PHYS_TO_VM_PAGE macro calls.
	   Unfortunately, a few have needed to be added also.
	   The removal caused the need for more vm_page_lookups.
	   I added lookup hints to minimize the need for the
	   page table lookup operations.
	3) Removal of some bogus performance improvements, that
	   mostly made the code more complex (tracking individual
	   page table page updates unnecessarily).  Those improvements
	   actually hurt 386 processors perf (not that people who
	   worry about perf use 386 processors anymore :-)).
	4) Changed pv queue manipulations/structures to be TAILQ's.
	5) The pv queue code has had some performance problems since
	   day one.  Some significant scalability issues are resolved
	   by threading the pv entries from the pmap AND the physical
	   address instead of just the physical address.  This makes
	   certain pmap operations run much faster.  This does
	   not affect most micro-benchmarks, but should help loaded system
	   performance *significantly*.  DG helped and came up with most
	   of the solution for this one.
	6) Most if not all pmap bit operations follow the pattern:
		pmap_test_bit();
		pmap_clear_bit();
	   That made for twice the necessary pv list traversal.   The
	   pmap interface now supports only pmap_tc_bit type operations:
	   pmap_[test/clear]_modified, pmap_[test/clear]_referenced.
	   Additionally, the modified routine now takes a vm_page_t arg
	   instead of a phys address.  This eliminates a PHYS_TO_VM_PAGE
	   operation.
	7) Several rewrites of routines that contain redundant code to
	   use common routines, so that there is a greater likelihood of
	   keeping the cache footprint smaller.
