tunable_mbinit() where it is next to where it is used later.
Change the sysinit level of tunable_mbinit() from SI_SUB_TUNABLES
to SI_SUB_KMEM after the VM is running. This allows to use better
methods to determine the effectively available physical and virtual
memory available to the kernel.
Update comments.
In a second step it can be merged into mbuf_init().
When maxusers was unrestricted and maxfiles was allowed to autotune
much higher the result was that ncallout which was based on maxfiles
and maxproc grew much higher than was needed.
To fix this clip autotuning to the same number we would get with
the old maxusers algorithm which would stop scaling at 384
maxusers.
Growing ncalout higher is not likely to be needed since most consumers
of timeout(9) are gone and any higher value for ncallout causes the
callwheel hashes to be much larger than will even be needed for
most applications.

Set the v_hash for a new vnode in the getnewvnode() to the value
calculated based on the vnode structure address. Filesystems using
vfs_hash_insert() override the v_hash using the standard formula of
(inode_number + mnt_hashseed). For other filesystems, the
initialization allows the vfs_hash_index() to provide useful hash too.

mount, which means that is must not be called while the snaplock is
owned. The vfs_write_resume(9) does call the function as the
VFS_SUSP_CLEAN() method, which is too early and falls into the region
still protected by snaplock.
Add yet another flag for the vfs_write_resume_flags() to avoid calling
suspension cleanup handler after the suspend is lifted, and use it in
the ffs_snapshot() call to vfs_write_resume.

which accepts flags.
Use the new function to prevent a deadlock between parallel suspension
and snapshotting a UFS mount. The ffs_snapshot() code performed
vfs_write_resume() followed by vn_start_write() while owning the
snaplock. If the suspension intervene between resume and
vn_start_write(), the deadlock occured after the suspending thread
tried to lock the snaplock, most typically during the write in the
ffs_copyonwrite().

acquire some locks to carry on some operations.

When kern_yield() was introduced with the possibility to specify
a new priority, the behaviour changed by not lowering priority at all
in the consumers, making the yielding mechanism highly ineffective for
high priority kthreads like bufdaemon, syncer, vlrudaemon, etc.
There are no evidences that consumers could bear with such change in
semantic and this situation could finally lead to bugs similar to the
ones fixed in r244240.
Re-specify userland pri for kthreads involved.

manage a set of power-of-2 sized buffers for bus_dmamem_alloc().
This allows the caller to provide the back-end allocator uma allocator,
allowing full control of the memory pages backing the pool. For
convenience, it provides an optional builtin allocator that provides pages
allocated with the VM_MEMATTR_UNCACHEABLE attribute, for managing pools of
DMA buffers for BUS_DMA_COHERENT or BUS_DMA_NOCACHE.
This also allows the caller to specify a minimum alignment, and it ensures
that all buffers start on a boundary and have a length that's a multiple of
that value, to avoid using buffers that trigger partial cache line flushes.

higher-priority (kernel) thread could fall into the priority-inversion
with the thread owning the mutex lock.
On single-processor machines or UP kernels, do not loop adaptively
when the next vnode cannot be locked, instead yield unconditionally.
Restructure the iteration initializer and the iterator to remove code
duplication. Put the code to fetch and lock a vnode next to the
current marker, into the mnt_vnode_next_active() function, and use it
instead of repeating the loop.
