Obtained from: BSD/OS (byte order), some old libnet stuff I did years ago.
1. Remove a race whereby contigmalloc() would deadlock against the
running processes in the system if they kept reinstantiating
the memory on the active and inactive page queues that it was
trying to flush out. The process doing the contigmalloc() would
sit in "swwrt" forever and the swap pager would be going at full
force, but never get anywhere. Instead of doing it until the
queues are empty, launder for as many iterations as there are
pages in the queue.
2. Do all laundering to swap synchronously; previously, the vnode
laundering was synchronous and the swap laundering not.
3. Increase the number of launder-or-allocate passes to three, from
two, while failing without bothering to do all the laundering on
the third pass if allocation was not possible. This effectively
gives exactly two chances to launder enough contiguous memory,
helpful with high memory churn where a lot of memory from one pass
to the next (and during a single laundering loop) becomes dirtied
again.
I can now reliably hot-plug hardware requiring a 256KB contigmalloc()
without having the kldload/cbb ithread sit around failing to make
progress, while running a busy X session. Previously, it took killing
X to get contigmalloc() to get further (that is, quiescing the system),
and even then contigmalloc() returned failure.
modification of a patch which was already applied for BSD/OS in the
Rhyolite.com sources; this file is already off the vendor branch.

* Usage goes to stderr, not stdout
* Use correct argument markup
* bsdtar --help no longer exits with an error return code
* ensure that the word "bsdtar" appears in the first
line output from "bsdtar --help" (even if the program is
invoked as "tar")
In particular, scripts can now test for the presence of bsdtar.
For example, in /bin/sh:
if (tar --help 2>&1 | grep bsdtar >/dev/null 2>&1) then \
echo bsdtar; else echo not bsdtar; fi
"machine name" in ntalkd(8) request packets, when the destination
and source are local.
This should make talk(1) use much more pleasant for those security-
conscious individuals who have chosen to bind talkd to "localhost".
Previous to this change, talk(1) would require that the hostname of
the machine, as retrieved by gethostname(3), resolved to a valid and
reachable IPv4 address, using gethostbyname(3).
This makes talk(1) dependent on a valid host entry for "localhost"
in /etc/hosts (or the Domain Name System).

success and a proper errno value on failure. This makes it
consistent with cv_timedwait(), and paves the way for the
introduction of functions such as sema_timedwait_sig() which can
fail in multiple ways.

flags relating to several aspects of socket functionality. This change
breaks out several bits relating to send and receive operation into a
new per-socket buffer field, sb_state, in order to facilitate locking.
This is required because, in order to provide more granular locking of
sockets, different state fields have different locking properties. The
following fields are moved to sb_state:
SS_CANTRCVMORE (so_state)
SS_CANTSENDMORE (so_state)
SS_RCVATMARK (so_state)
Rename respectively to:
SBS_CANTRCVMORE (so_rcv.sb_state)
SBS_CANTSENDMORE (so_snd.sb_state)
SBS_RCVATMARK (so_rcv.sb_state)
This facilitates locking by isolating fields to be located with other
identically locked fields, and permits greater granularity in socket
locking by avoiding storing fields with different locking semantics in
the same short (avoiding locking conflicts). In the future, we may
wish to coallesce sb_state and sb_flags; for the time being I leave
them separate and there is no additional memory overhead due to the
packing/alignment of shorts in the socket buffer structure.
allocated ressouces should be ultimately freed in gv_destroy_geom()
(when unloading the module and not earlier), but I need to look at this
more closely.
I added bounds checking to the patch and cg improved
the formular.
