writers that want to extend the file. It was also used to serialize
readers that might want to read the last block of the file (with a
writer extending the file). Now that we support vnode locking for
NFS, the rslock is unnecessary. Writers grab the exclusive vnode
lock before writing and readers grab the shared (or in some cases
the exclusive) lock.

- Fix nfsm_disct() so that after pulling up data, the remaining data
is aligned if necessary.
- Fix nfs_clnt_tcp_soupcall() to bcopy() the rpc length out of the
mbuf (instead of casting m_data to a uint32).

atomic write request, it can fill the buffer cache with the entirety
of that write in order to handle retries. However, it never drops
the vnode lock, or else it wouldn't be atomic, so it ends up waiting
indefinitely for more buf memory that cannot be gotten as it has it
all, and it waits in an uncancellable state.
To fix this, hibufspace is exported and scaled to a reasonable
fraction. This is used as the limit of how much of an atomic write
request by the NFS client will be handled asynchronously. If the
request is larger than this, it will be turned into a synchronous
request which won't deadlock the system. It's possible this value is
far off from what is required by some, so it shall be tunable as soon
as mount_nfs(8) learns of the new field.
The slowdown between an asynchronous and a synchronous write on NFS
appears to be on the order of 2x-4x.

was exposed 18 months ago when the assignments to f_flags in
vfs_syscalls.c were moved to before the VFS_STATFS() call. It was
fixed in the CSRG source 10 years ago, but we never picked up that
change.

the MNT_RDONLY flag if the "ro" option was passed in from userland, and
clears it otherwise. In the diskless case, the MNT_RDONLY flag is already
set when this code is reached, but there are no mount options, so it was
incorrectly cleared. Change the logic so the MNT_RDONLY flag is set if the
"ro" option was specified, and left alone otherwise.
Note that the NFS code will still happily let you mount a filesystem RW
even if the server exports it RO. I'm not sure how to fix that.
- Network filesystems are written with a special idiom that checks the
cache first, and may even unlock dvp before discovering that a network
round-trip is required to resolve the name. I believe dvp is prevented
from being recycled even in the forced unmount case by the shared lock
on the mount point. If not, this code should grow checks for VI_DOOMED
after it relocks dvp or it will access NULL v_data fields.

under question to wakeup (possibly from ptrace()), which
causes NFS to wakeup from tsleep without the response being

and tweaks. The code was actually quite broken because it discarded the
upper bits of the 64 bit division. We only had a 50% chance of scaling up
the blocksize for large NFS client mounts when it was needed. For 5.x and
beyond, this was harmless because we could represent the result in either
case. For 4.x this was a big problem though. (4.x also has a df(1) bug to
compound the problem)
I'm not sure why a credential was added to these in the first place, it is
not used anywhere and it doesn't make much sense:
The credentials for syncing a file (ability to write to the
file) should be checked at the system call level.
Credentials for syncing one or more filesystems ("none")
should be checked at the system call level as well.
If the filesystem implementation needs a particular credential
to carry out the syncing it would logically have to the
cached mount credential, or a credential cached along with
any delayed write data.

- NFS direct IO completely bypasses the buffer and page caches.
If a file is open for direct IO all caching is disabled.
- Direct IO for Directories will be addressed later.
- 2 new NFS directio related sysctls are added. One is a knob to
disable NFS direct IO completely (direct IO is enabled by default).
The other is to disallow mmaped IO on a file that has at least one
O_DIRECT open (see the comment in nfs_vnops.c for more details).
The default is to allow mmaps on a file that has O_DIRECT opens.
