support was missing in the previous version of the AIO code. More
tunables added, and very efficient support for VCHR files has been added.
Kernel threads are not used for VCHR files, all work for such files is
done for the requesting process directly. Some attempt has been made to
charge the requesting process for resource utilization, but more work
is needed. aio_fsync is still missing (but the original fsync system
call can be used for now.) aio_cancel is essentially a noop, but that
is okay per POSIX. More aio_cancel functionality can be added later,
if it is found to be needed.
The functions implemented include:
aio_read, aio_write, lio_listio, aio_error, aio_return,
aio_cancel, aio_suspend.
The code has been implemented to support the POSIX spec 1003.1b
(formerly known as POSIX 1003.4 spec) features of the above. The
async I/O features are truly async, with the VCHR mode of operation
being essentially the same as physio (for appropriate files) for
maximum efficiency. This code also supports the signal capability,
is highly tunable, allowing management of resource usage, and
has been written to allow a per process usage quota.
Both the O'Reilly POSIX.4 book and the actual POSIX 1003.1b document
were the reference specs used. Any filedescriptor can be used with
these new system calls. I know of no exceptions where these
system calls will not work. (TTY's will also probably work.)
Here are the remanding changes required to support the Ensoniq
Soundscape using FreeBSD 3.0-current.
Notes:
1) ad1848_init already has code to detect if DMA_DUPLEX should
be set so it is not necessary (and is in fact a mistake) to
hard code setting it. Not all soundcards (i.e. the current
sscape driver) are capable of using DMA_DUPLEX.
2) The other changes are hopefully self explanatory. Feel free
to let me know if you need additional information.

If I understand the locking correctly: if mount() blocks, then unmount()

waiting for mount() to finish. When unmount() continues, its MNTK flags
(MNTK_UNMOUNT and MNTK_MWAIT) may have been clobbered.
Didn't fix old bugs:
- restoring mp->mnt_kern_flag is wrong for the same reasons in the error
case.
- the error case of unmount() seems to be broken too:
(a) MNTK_UNMOUNT gets clobbered, although another unmount() may have
set it. Perhaps it shouldn't be set until after the full lock is
aquired.
(b) MNTK_MWAIT isn't honoured.

Ever since I first say the way the mount flags were used I've hated the
fact that modes, and events, internal and exported, and short-term

This patch to the entire FreeBSD tree adds a second mount flag word
to the mount struct. it is not exported to userspace. I have moved
some of the non exported flags over to this word. this means that we now
have 8 free bits in the mount flags. There are another two that might
well move over, but which I'm not sure about.
The only user visible change would have been in pstat -v, except
that davidg has disabled it anyhow.
I'd still like to move the state flags and the 'command' flags
