ways:
(1) Cached pages are no longer kept in the object's resident page
splay tree and memq. Instead, they are kept in a separate per-object
splay tree of cached pages. However, access to this new per-object
splay tree is synchronized by the _free_ page queues lock, not to be
confused with the heavily contended page queues lock. Consequently, a
cached page can be reclaimed by vm_page_alloc(9) without acquiring the
object's lock or the page queues lock.
This solves a problem independently reported by tegge@ and Isilon.
Specifically, they observed the page daemon consuming a great deal of
CPU time because of pages bouncing back and forth between the cache
queue (PQ_CACHE) and the inactive queue (PQ_INACTIVE). The source of
this problem turned out to be a deadlock avoidance strategy employed
when selecting a cached page to reclaim in vm_page_select_cache().
However, the root cause was really that reclaiming a cached page
required the acquisition of an object lock while the page queues lock
was already held. Thus, this change addresses the problem at its
root, by eliminating the need to acquire the object's lock.
Moreover, keeping cached pages in the object's primary splay tree and
memq was, in effect, optimizing for the uncommon case. Cached pages
are reclaimed far, far more often than they are reactivated. Instead,
this change makes reclamation cheaper, especially in terms of
synchronization overhead, and reactivation more expensive, because
reactivated pages will have to be reentered into the object's primary
splay tree and memq.
(2) Cached pages are now stored alongside free pages in the physical
memory allocator's buddy queues, increasing the likelihood that large
allocations of contiguous physical memory (i.e., superpages) will
succeed.
Finally, as a result of this change long-standing restrictions on when
and where a cached page can be reclaimed and returned by
vm_page_alloc(9) are eliminated. Specifically, calls to
vm_page_alloc(9) specifying VM_ALLOC_INTERRUPT can now reclaim and
return a formerly cached page. Consequently, a call to malloc(9)
specifying M_NOWAIT is less likely to fail.

polling/interrupt-driven fallback and instead use polling only during
boot and pure interrupt-driven mode after boot. Polled mode could be
relegated completely to a legacy role if we could enable interrupts
during boot. Polled mode can be forced after boot by setting
debug.acpi.ec.polled="1", i.e. if there are timeouts.
- Use polling only during boot, shutdown, or if requested by the user.
Otherwise, use a generation count of GPEs, incremented atomically. This
prevents an old status value from being used if the EC is really slow
and the same condition (i.e. multiple IBEs for a write transaction) is
being checked.
- Check for and run the query handler directly if the SCI bit is set in
the status register during boot. Previously, the query handler wouldn't
run until interrupts were finally enabled late in boot.
- During boot and after starting a command, check if the event appears
to already have occurred before we even start waiting. If so, it's
possible the EC is very slow and we might accept an old status value.
Print a warning in this case. Once we've booted, interrupt-driven mode
should work just fine but polled mode could be unreliable. There's not
much more we can do about this until interrupts are enabled during boot.
- In the above case, we also do one final check if the interrupt-driven
mode gets a timeout. If the status is complete, it will force the
system back into polled mode since interrupt mode doesn't work. For
polled mode during boot, if the status appears to be already complete
before beginning the check loop, it waits 10 us before actually checking
the status, just in case the EC is really slow and hasn't gotten to work
on the new request yet.
- Use upper-case hex for the _Qxx method
- Use device_printf for errors, don't hide them under verbose
- Increase default total timeout to 750 ms and decrease polling interval
to 5 us.
- Don't pass the status value via the softc. Just read it directly.
- Remove the mutex. We use the sx lock for transaction serialization
with the query handler.
- Remove the Intel copyright notice as no code of theirs was ever
present in this file (verified against rev 1.1)
- Allow KTR module-only builds for ease of testing

- Reintegrate the ANSI C function declaration change
from tcp_timer.c rev 1.92
- Reorganize the tcpcb structure so that it has a single
pointer to the "tcp_timer" structure which contains all
of the tcp timer callouts. This change means that when
the single tcp timer change is reintegrated, tcpcb will
not change in size, and therefore the ABI between
netstat and the kernel will not change.
Neither of these changes should have any functional
impact.

only be used when we are certain we hold the last reference to the
route. This bug results in console messages like the following:

This patch switches the rtfree() to use RTFREE_LOCKED() instead,
which should handle the reference counting on the route better.

All active fields in fsi are advisory/optional, so we shouldn't do
extra work to make them valid at all times, but instead we write to
the fsi too often (we still do), and we searched for a free cluster
for fsinxtfree too often.
This commit just removes the whole search and its results, so that we
write out our in-core copy of fsinxtfree instead of writing a "fixed"
copy and clobbering our in-core copy. This saves fixing 3 bugs:
- off-by-1 error for the end of the search, resulting in fsinxtfree
not actually being adjusted iff only the last cluster is free.
- missing adjustment when no clusters are free.
- off-by-many error for the start of the search. Starting the search
at 0 instead of at (the in-core copy of) fsinxtfree did more than
defeat the reasons for existence of fsinxtfree. fsinxtfree exists
mainly to avoid having to start at 0 for just the first search per
mount, but has the side effect of reducing bias towards allocating
near cluster 0. The bias would normally only be generated by the
first search per mount (if fsinxtfree is not supported), but since
we also adjusted the in-core copy of fsinxtfree here, we were doing
extra work to maximize the bias.

- Improve load long-term load balancer by always IPIing exactly once.
Previously the delay after rebalancing could cause problems with
uneven workloads.
- Allow nice to have a linear effect on the interactivity score. This
allows negatively niced programs to stay interactive longer. It may be
useful with very expensive Xorg servers under high loads. In general
it should not be necessary to alter the nice level to improve interactive
response. We may also want to consider never allowing positively niced
processes to become interactive at all.
- Initialize ccpu to 0 rather than 0.0. The decimal point was leftover
from when the code was copied from 4bsd. ccpu is 0 in ULE because ULE
only exports weighted cpu values.
