Reextend the M_WAITOK-disabling-hack to all three of the mbuf-related
zones, and do it by direct comparison of uma_zone_t instead of strcmp. The mbuf subsystem used to provide M_TRYWAIT/M_DONTWAIT semantics, but this is mostly no longer the case. M_WAITOK has taken over the spot M_TRYWAIT used to have, and for mbuf things, still may return NULL if the code path is incorrectly holding a mutex going into mbuf allocation functions. The M_WAITOK/M_NOWAIT semantics are absolute; though it may deadlock the system to try to malloc or uma_zalloc something with a mutex held and M_WAITOK specified, it is absolutely required to not return NULL and will result in instability and/or security breaches otherwise. There is still room to add the WITNESS_WARN() to all cases so that we are notified of the possibility of deadlocks, but it cannot change the value of the "badness" variable and allow allocation to actually fail except for the specialized cases which used to be M_TRYWAIT.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
