of the the first cluster in a file (and, if the allocation cannot be
continued contiguously, for subsequent clusters in a file) was randomized
in an attempt to leave space for contiguous allocation of subsequent
clusters in each file when there are multiple writers. This reduced
internal fragmentation by a few percent, but it increased external
fragmentation by up to a few thousand percent.
Use simple sequential allocation instead. Actually maintain the fsinfo
sequence index for this. The read and write of this index from/to
disk still have many non-critical bugs, but we now write an index that
has something to do with our allocations instead of being modified
garbage. If there is no fsinfo on the disk, then we maintain the index
internally and don't go near the bugs for writing it.
Allocating the first free cluster gives a layout that is almost as good
(better in some cases), but takes too much CPU if the FAT is large and
the first free cluster is not near the beginning.
The effect of this change for untar and tar of a slightly reduced copy
of /usr/src on a new file system was:
Before (msdosfs 4K-clusters):
untar: 459.57 real untar from cached file (actually a pipe)
tar: 342.50 real tar from uncached tree to /dev/zero
Before (ffs2 soft updates 4K-blocks 4K-frags)
untar: 39.18 real
tar: 29.94 real
Before (ffs2 soft updates 16K-blocks 2K-frags)
untar: 31.35 real
tar: 18.30 real
After (msdosfs 4K-clusters):
untar 54.83 real
tar 16.18 real
All of these times can be improved further.
With multiple concurrent writers or readers (especially readers), the
improvement is smaller, but I couldn't find any case where it is
negative. 342 seconds for tarring up about 342 MB on a ~47MB/S partition
is just hard to unimprove on. (This operation would take about 7.3
seconds with reasonably localized allocation and perfect read-ahead.)
However, for active file systems, 342 seconds is closer to normal than
the 16+ seconds above or the 11 seconds with other changes (best I've
measured -- won easily by msdosfs!). E.g., my active /usr/src on ffs1
is quite old and fragmented, so reading to prepare for the above
benchmark takes about 6 times longer than reading back the fresh copies
of it.

- Move udp_sendspace and udp_recvspace global variables and associated
sysctls to the top of the file where most other such things are present.
- Rename static variable 'blackhole' to 'udp_blackhole' and unstaticize
so that we can add blackhole support for UDPv6 using the same MIB
variable.
- Move udp_append() above udp_input() to match the function order in

With the in_mcast.c code, if an interface for an IPv4 multicast join was
not specified, and a route did not exist for the specified group in the
unicast forwarding tables, the join would be rejected with the error
EADDRNOTAVAIL.
This change restores the old behaviour whereby if no interface is specified,
and no route exists for the group destination, the IPv4 address list is
walked to find a non-loopback, multicast-capable interface to satisfy
the join request.
This should resolve problems with starting multicast services during
system boot or when a default forwarding entry does not exist.

- When a LDT entry changes, the old one is freed while it is still
referenced by gdt and ldtr. This can lead to disruptive behaviours in
particular on SMP machines.
- When a LDT entry changes, it is assumed that the only one entity sharing
the same LDT are threads in the same proc. It doesn't take in account
edge cases where two processes share the same VM (rfork'ed ones, for
example).
This patch addresses these two problems and addictionally it fixes the
usage of refcount switching back it to the old manually-grown refcount
(since in this case would be faster).

- Disable shared paths for lock_profiling. Actually, lock_profiling has a
subtle race which makes results caming from shared paths not completely
