Alan Cox d4e3484bd9 Change blist_alloc()'s allocation policy from first-fit to next-fit so
that disk writes are more likely to be sequential.  This change is
beneficial on both the solid state and mechanical disks that I've
tested.  (A similar change in allocation policy was made by DragonFly
BSD in 2013 to speed up Poudriere with "stressful memory parameters".)

Increase the width of blst_meta_alloc()'s parameter "skip" and the local
variables whose values are derived from it to 64 bits.  (This matches the
width of the field "skip" that is stored in the structure "blist" and
passed to blst_meta_alloc().)

Eliminate a pointless check for a NULL blist_t.

Simplify blst_meta_alloc()'s handling of the ALL-FREE case.

Address nearby style errors.

FreeBSD Source:

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. See build(7) and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables.

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. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information.

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 kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds. NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used.
