refcount(9) was recently extended to support waiting on a refcount to
drop to zero, as this was needed for a lockless VM object
paging-in-progress counter. However, this adds overhead to all uses of
refcount(9) and doesn't really match traditional refcounting semantics:
once a counter has dropped to zero, the protected object may be freed at
any point and it is not safe to dereference the counter.
This change removes that extension and instead adds a new set of KPIs,
blockcount_*, for use by VM object PIP and busy.

Shadow objects are marked with a COLLAPSING flag while they are collapsing with
their backing object. This gives us an explicit test rather than overloading
paging-in-progress. While split is on-going we mark an object with SPLIT.
These two operations will modify the swap tree so they must be serialized
and swap_pager_getpages() can now directly detect these conditions and page
more conservatively.
Callers to vm_object_collapse() now will reliably wait for a collapse to finish
so that the backing chain is as short as possible before other decisions are
made that may inflate the object chain. For example, split, coalesce, etc.
It is now safe to run fault concurrently with collapse. It is safe to increase
or decrease paging in progress with no lock so long as there is another valid
ref on increase.
This change makes collapse more reliable as a secondary benefit. The primary
benefit is making it safe to drop the object lock much earlier in fault or
never acquire it at all.
This was tested with a new shadow chain test script that uncovered long

this, except for some remnants that were present in UFS till today.
One of the consequences of that model is that each filesystem must
call vnode_destroy_vobject() in VOP_RECLAIM() or earlier, as result
all of them get rid of the v_object in reclaim.
Move the call to vnode_destroy_vobject() to vgonel() before
VOP_RECLAIM(). This makes v_object stable: either the object is NULL,

For regular files and posix shared memory, POSIX requires that
[offset, offset + size) range is legitimate. At the maping time,
check that offset is not negative. Allowing negative offsets might
expose the data that filesystem put into vm_object for internal use,
esp. due to OFF_TO_IDX() signess treatment. Fault handler verifies
that the mapped range is valid, assuming that mmap(2) checked that
arithmetic gives no undefined results.
For device mappings, leave the semantic of negative offsets to the
driver. Correct object page index calculation to not erronously
propagate sign.
In either case, disallow overflow of offset + size.

with cdev_pg_populate() to provide device drivers access to it. It
gives drivers fine control of the pages ownership and allows drivers
to implement arbitrary prefault policies.
The populate method is called on a page fault and is supposed to
populate the vm object with the page at the fault location and some
amount of pages around it, at pager's discretion. VM provides the
pager with the hints about current range of the object mapping, to
avoid instantiation of immediately unused pages, if pager decides so.
Also, VM passes the fault type and map entry protection to the pager,
allowing it to force the optimal required ownership of the mapped
pages.
Installed pages must contiguously fill the returned region, be fully
valid and exclusively busied. Of course, the pages must be compatible
with the object' type.
After populate() successfully returned, VM fault handler installs as
many instantiated pages into the process page tables as it sees
reasonable, while still obeying the correct semantic for COW and vm
map locking.
The method is opt-in, pager sets OBJ_POPULATE flag to indicate that
the method can be called. If pager' vm objects can be shadowed, pager
must implement the traditional getpages() method in addition to the
populate(). Populate() might fall back to the getpages() on per-call
basis as well, by returning VM_PAGER_BAD error code.
For now for device pagers, the populate() method is only allowed to be
used by the managed device pagers, but the limitation is only made
because there is no unmanaged fault handlers which could use it right
now.

A robust mutex is guaranteed to be cleared by the system upon either
thread or process owner termination while the mutex is held. The next
mutex locker is then notified about inconsistent mutex state and can
execute (or abandon) corrective actions.
The patch mostly consists of small changes here and there, adding
neccessary checks for the inconsistent and abandoned conditions into
existing paths. Additionally, the thread exit handler was extended to
iterate over the userspace-maintained list of owned robust mutexes,
unlocking and marking as terminated each of them.
The list of owned robust mutexes cannot be maintained atomically
synchronous with the mutex lock state (it is possible in kernel, but
is too expensive). Instead, for the duration of lock or unlock
operation, the current mutex is remembered in a special slot that is
also checked by the kernel at thread termination.
Kernel must be aware about the per-thread location of the heads of
robust mutex lists and the current active mutex slot. When a thread
touches a robust mutex for the first time, a new umtx op syscall is
issued which informs about location of lists heads.
The umtx sleep queues for PP and PI mutexes are split between
non-robust and robust.

2. The fix for proper tdfind() call use in umtxq_sleep_pi() for shared

Such arrayed requests for now should be preceeded by a call to

works by applying POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED to file ranges after they have been

apply POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED to the result, ensuring that pages backing the
dirty buffers would eventually be cached. To preserve this behaviour in an
