alc@. The UMA zone based allocation is replaced by a scheme that creates a new free page list for the KSEG0 region, and a new function in sys/vm that allocates pages from a specific free page list. This also fixes a race condition introduced by the UMA based page table page allocation code. Dropping the page queue and pmap locks before the call to uma_zfree, and re-acquiring them afterwards will introduce a race condtion(noted by alc@). The changes are : - Revert the earlier changes in MIPS pmap.c that added UMA zone for page table pages. - Add a new freelist VM_FREELIST_HIGHMEM to MIPS vmparam.h for memory that is not directly mapped (in 32bit kernel). Normal page allocations will first try the HIGHMEM freelist and then the default(direct mapped) freelist. - Add a new function 'vm_page_t vm_page_alloc_freelist(int flind, int order, int req)' to vm/vm_page.c to allocate a page from a specified freelist. The MIPS page table pages will be allocated using this function from the freelist containing direct mapped pages. - Move the page initialization code from vm_phys_alloc_contig() to a new function vm_page_alloc_init(), and use this function to initialize pages in vm_page_alloc_freelist() too. - Split the function vm_phys_alloc_pages(int pool, int order) to create vm_phys_alloc_freelist_pages(int flind, int pool, int order), and use this function from both vm_page_alloc_freelist() and vm_phys_alloc_pages().
