(DPCPU), as suggested by Peter Wemm, and implement a new per-virtual
network stack memory allocator. Modify vnet to use the allocator
instead of monolithic global container structures (vinet, ...). This
change solves many binary compatibility problems associated with
VIMAGE, and restores ELF symbols for virtualized global variables.
Each virtualized global variable exists as a "reference copy", and also
once per virtual network stack. Virtualized global variables are
tagged at compile-time, placing the in a special linker set, which is
loaded into a contiguous region of kernel memory. Virtualized global
variables in the base kernel are linked as normal, but those in modules
are copied and relocated to a reserved portion of the kernel's vnet
region with the help of a the kernel linker.
Virtualized global variables exist in per-vnet memory set up when the
network stack instance is created, and are initialized statically from
the reference copy. Run-time access occurs via an accessor macro, which
converts from the current vnet and requested symbol to a per-vnet
address. When "options VIMAGE" is not compiled into the kernel, normal
global ELF symbols will be used instead and indirection is avoided.
This change restores static initialization for network stack global
variables, restores support for non-global symbols and types, eliminates
the need for many subsystem constructors, eliminates large per-subsystem
structures that caused many binary compatibility issues both for
monitoring applications (netstat) and kernel modules, removes the
per-function INIT_VNET_*() macros throughout the stack, eliminates the
need for vnet_symmap ksym(2) munging, and eliminates duplicate
definitions of virtualized globals under VIMAGE_GLOBALS.

previously always pointing to the default vnet context, to a
dynamically changing thread-local one. The currvnet context
should be set on entry to networking code via CURVNET_SET() macros,
and reverted to previous state via CURVNET_RESTORE(). Recursions
on curvnet are permitted, though strongly discuouraged.
This change should have no functional impact on nooptions VIMAGE
kernel builds, where CURVNET_* macros expand to whitespace.
The curthread->td_vnet (aka curvnet) variable's purpose is to be an
indicator of the vnet context in which the current network-related
operation takes place, in case we cannot deduce the current vnet
context from any other source, such as by looking at mbuf's
m->m_pkthdr.rcvif->if_vnet, sockets's so->so_vnet etc. Moreover, so
far curvnet has turned out to be an invaluable consistency checking
aid: it helps to catch cases when sockets, ifnets or any other
vnet-aware structures may have leaked from one vnet to another.
The exact placement of the CURVNET_SET() / CURVNET_RESTORE() macros
was a result of an empirical iterative process, whith an aim to
reduce recursions on CURVNET_SET() to a minimum, while still reducing
the scope of CURVNET_SET() to networking only operations - the
alternative would be calling CURVNET_SET() on each system call entry.
In general, curvnet has to be set in three typicall cases: when
processing socket-related requests from userspace or from within the
kernel; when processing inbound traffic flowing from device drivers
to upper layers of the networking stack, and when executing
timer-driven networking functions.
This change also introduces a DDB subcommand to show the list of all

Inside the kernel, the minor() function was responsible for obtaining
the device minor number of a character device. Because we made device
numbers dynamically allocated and independent of the unit number passed
to make_dev() a long time ago, it was actually a misnomer. If you really
want to obtain the device number, you should use dev2udev().
We already converted all the drivers to use dev2unit() to obtain the
device unit number, which is still used by a lot of drivers. I've
noticed not a single driver passes NULL to dev2unit(). Even if they
would, its behaviour would make little sense. This is why I've removed
the NULL check.
Ths commit removes minor(), minor2unit() and unit2minor() from the
kernel. Because there was a naming collision with uminor(), we can
rename umajor() and uminor() back to major() and minor(). This means
that the makedev(3) manual page also applies to kernel space code now.

user-mode lock manager, build a kernel with the NFSLOCKD option and
add '-k' to 'rpc_lockd_flags' in rc.conf.
Highlights include:
* Thread-safe kernel RPC client - many threads can use the same RPC
client handle safely with replies being de-multiplexed at the socket
upcall (typically driven directly by the NIC interrupt) and handed
off to whichever thread matches the reply. For UDP sockets, many RPC
clients can share the same socket. This allows the use of a single
privileged UDP port number to talk to an arbitrary number of remote
hosts.
* Single-threaded kernel RPC server. Adding support for multi-threaded
server would be relatively straightforward and would follow
approximately the Solaris KPI. A single thread should be sufficient
for the NLM since it should rarely block in normal operation.
* Kernel mode NLM server supporting cancel requests and granted
callbacks. I've tested the NLM server reasonably extensively - it
passes both my own tests and the NFS Connectathon locking tests
running on Solaris, Mac OS X and Ubuntu Linux.
* Userland NLM client supported. While the NLM server doesn't have
support for the local NFS client's locking needs, it does have to
field async replies and granted callbacks from remote NLMs that the
local client has contacted. We relay these replies to the userland
rpc.lockd over a local domain RPC socket.
* Robust deadlock detection for the local lock manager. In particular
it will detect deadlocks caused by a lock request that covers more
than one blocking request. As required by the NLM protocol, all
deadlock detection happens synchronously - a user is guaranteed that
if a lock request isn't rejected immediately, the lock will
eventually be granted. The old system allowed for a 'deferred
deadlock' condition where a blocked lock request could wake up and
find that some other deadlock-causing lock owner had beaten them to
the lock.
* Since both local and remote locks are managed by the same kernel
locking code, local and remote processes can safely use file locks
for mutual exclusion. Local processes have no fairness advantage
compared to remote processes when contending to lock a region that
has just been unlocked - the local lock manager enforces a strict
first-come first-served model for both local and remote lockers.

A couple of notes for this:
* WITNESS support, when enabled, is only used for shared locks in order
to avoid problems with the "disowned" locks
* KA_HELD and KA_UNHELD only exists in the lockmgr namespace in order
to assert for a generic thread (not curthread) owning or not the
lock. Really, this kind of check is bogus but it seems very
widespread in the consumers code. So, for the moment, we cater this
untrusted behaviour, until the consumers are not fixed and the
options could be removed (hopefully during 8.0-CURRENT lifecycle)
* Implementing KA_HELD and KA_UNHELD (not surported natively by
WITNESS) made necessary the introduction of LA_MASKASSERT which
specifies the range for default lock assertion flags
* About other aspects, lockmgr_assert() follows exactly what other
locking primitives offer about this operation.

- Add checks at lock destruction time and use a cookie for verifying

server-side RPC retranmission cache for non-idempotent operations: these
hacks substituted 0 (success) for the expected EEXIST in the event that
a target name already existed for LINK, SYMLINK, and MKDIR operations,
under the assumption that EEXIST represented a second application of the
original RPC rather than a true failure.
Background: certain NFS operations (in this case, LINK, SYMLINK, and
MKDIR) are not idempotent, as they leave behind persisting state on the
server that prevents them from being replayed without an error;if an UDP
RPC reply is lost leading to a retransmission by theclient, the second
reply will return EEXIST rather than success, asthe new object has
already been created. The NFS client previouslysilently mapped the
EEXIST return into success to paper over thisproblem.
However, in all modern NFS server implementations, a reply cache is kept
in order to retransmit the original reply to a retransmitted request,
rather than performing the operation a second time, allowing this hack
to be avoided. This allows link()-based filelocking over NFS to operate
correctly, as an application requestingthe creation of a new link for a
file to tell if it succeededatomically or not.
Other NFS clients, including Solaris and Linux, generally follow this
behavior for the same reasons. Most clients also now default to TCP,
which also helps avoid the issue of retransmitted but non-idempotent
requests in most cases.

However, nfs_setattr() doesn't do much parameter checking, so when

always does a Setattr RPC. This RPC can't do anything good, and for
VA_MARK_ATIME it is null except for wasting a lot of time.
This is the smallest and easiest to fix of several bugs that have
increased the number of RPCs for kernel builds on nfs by more than
100% since 2004-11-05. The real-time increase depends on network
latency and parallelization and can also be very large (approaching
the same percentage for unparallelized operations like "make depend"
on systems with fast CPUs and high-latency networks).
