the active vnode list for the given mount point, with the assumption
that vnodes with dirty pages are active. This is enforced by
vinactive() doing vm_object_page_clean() pass over the vnode pages.
The issue is, if vinactive() cannot be called during vput() due to the
vnode being only shared-locked, we might end up with the dirty pages
for the vnode on the free list. Such vnode is invisible to syncer,
and pages are only cleaned on the vnode reactivation. In other words,
the race results in the broken guarantee that user data, written
through the mmap(2), is written to the disk not later than in 30
seconds after the write.
Fix this by keeping the vnode which is freed but still owing
inactivation, on the active list. When syncer loops find such vnode,
it is deactivated and cleaned by the final vput() call.

0. For spin events report time spent spinning, not a loop count.
While loop count is much easier and cheaper to obtain it is hard
to reason about the reported numbers, espcially for adaptive locks
where both spinning and sleeping can happen.
So, it's better to compare apples and apples.
1. Teach lockstat about FreeBSD rw locks.
This is done in part by changing the corresponding probes
and in part by changing what probes lockstat should expect.
2. Teach lockstat that rw locks are adaptive and can spin on FreeBSD.
3. Report lock acquisition events for successful rw try-lock operations.
4. Teach lockstat about FreeBSD sx locks.
Reporting of events for those locks completely mirrors
rw locks.
5. Report spin and block events before acquisition event.
This is behavior documented for the upstream, so it makes sense to stick
to it. Note that because of FreeBSD adaptive lock implementations
both the spin and block events may be reported for the same acquisition
while the upstream reports only one of them.

Use the same scheme implemented to manage credentials.
Code needing to look at process's credentials (as opposed to thred's) is
provided with *_proc variants of relevant functions.
Places which possibly had to take the proc lock anyway still use the proc
pointer to access limits.
Thread credentials are maintained as follows: each thread has a pointer to
creds and a reference on them. The pointer is compared with proc's creds on
userspace<->kernel boundary and updated if needed.
This patch introduces a counter which can be compared instead, so that more
structures can use this scheme without adding more comparisons on the boundary.

This also changes subr_prf.c so that it can be compiled in
userland for includsion in libsbuf.
We should work to change this so that the kernel hexdump
implementation is a wrapper around sbuf_hexdump() with a
statically allocated sbuf with a drain. That will require
a drain function that goes to the kernel printf() buffer
that can take a non-NUL terminated string as input.
That is because an sbuf isn't NUL-terminated until it is
finished, and we don't want to finish it while we're still
using it.
We should also work to consolidate the userland hexdump and
kernel hexdump implemenatations, which are currently
separate. This would also mean making applications that
currently link in libutil link in libsbuf.
sys/sys/sbuf.h:
Add the prototype for sbuf_hexdump(), and add another copy

Ideally the flags should be defined in one place but the

logic is now placed in the mmap hook implementation rather than requiring
it to be placed in sys/vm/vm_mmap.c. This hook allows new file types to
support mmap() as well as potentially allowing mmap() for existing file
types that do not currently support any mapping.
The vm_mmap() function is now split up into two functions. A new
vm_mmap_object() function handles the "back half" of vm_mmap() and accepts
a referenced VM object to map rather than a (handle, handle_type) tuple.
vm_mmap() is now reduced to converting a (handle, handle_type) tuple to a
a VM object and then calling vm_mmap_object() to handle the actual mapping.
The vm_mmap() function remains for use by other parts of the kernel
(e.g. device drivers and exec) but now only supports mapping vnodes,
character devices, and anonymous memory.
The mmap() system call invokes vm_mmap_object() directly with a NULL object
for anonymous mappings. For mappings using a file descriptor, the
descriptors fo_mmap() hook is invoked instead. The fo_mmap() hook is
responsible for performing type-specific checks and adjustments to
arguments as well as possibly modifying mapping parameters such as flags
or the object offset. The fo_mmap() hook routines then call
vm_mmap_object() to handle the actual mapping.
The fo_mmap() hook is optional. If it is not set, then fo_mmap() will
fail with ENODEV. A fo_mmap() hook is implemented for regular files,
character devices, and shared memory objects (created via shm_open()).
While here, consistently use the VM_PROT_* constants for the vm_prot_t
type for the 'prot' variable passed to vm_mmap() and vm_mmap_object()
as well as the vm_mmap_vnode() and vm_mmap_cdev() helper routines.
Previously some places were using the mmap()-specific PROT_* constants
instead. While this happens to work because PROT_xx == VM_PROT_xx,
using VM_PROT_* is more correct.

tdsigwakeup() increases the priority of the low-priority threads, to
give them a chance to be terminated timely. Also, kernel allows user
to signal kernel processes. The combined effect is that signalling
idle process bump a priority of the selected delivery thread, which
starts eating CPU.
Check for the delivery thread be an idle thread and do not raise its
priority then.
The signal delivery to the kernel threads must be opt-in feature.
Kernel thread should explicitely declare the ability to handle signals
directed to it. E.g., nfsd threads check for signal as an indication
of exit request.
Most threads do not handle signals at all, and queuing the signal to
them causes odd side-effects. Most innocent consequence is the memory
leak due to queued ksiginfo, which is never deleted from the sigqueue.
Code to prevent even queuing signals to the kernel threads is trivial,
but it requires careful examination of each call to kproc/kthread
creation to decide should the signalling be allowed. The commit is a
stop-gap measure which fixes the immediate case for now.

limits in the code which is deep in the call stack, and owns several
critical system resources, like vnode locks. Attempt to wait while
the per-mount softupdate thread cleans up the backlog may deadlock,
because the thread might need to lock the same vnode which is owned by
the waiting thread.
Instead of synchronously waiting for the worker, perform the worker'
tickle and pause until the backlog is cleaned, at the safe point
during return from kernel to usermode. A new ast request to call
softdep_ast_cleanup() is created, the SU code now only checks the size
of queue and schedules ast.
There is no ast delivery for the kernel threads, so they are exempted
from the mechanism, except NFS daemon threads. NFS server loop
explicitely checks for the request, and informs the schedule_cleanup()
that it is capable of handling the requests by the process P2_AST_SU
flag. This is needed because nfsd may be the sole cause of the SU
workqueue overflow. But, to not cause nsfd to spawn additional
threads just because we slow down existing workers, only tickle su

In r256613, taskqueue_enqueue_locked() have been modified to release the
task queue lock before returning. In r276665, taskqueue_drain_all() will
call taskqueue_enqueue_locked() to insert the barrier task into the queue,
but did not reacquire the lock after it but later code expects the lock
still being held (e.g. TQ_SLEEP()).
The barrier task is special and if we release then reacquire the lock,
there would be a small race window where a high priority task could sneak
into the queue. Looking more closely, the race seems to be tolerable but
is undesirable from semantics standpoint.
To solve this, in taskqueue_drain_tq_queue(), instead of directly calling
taskqueue_enqueue_locked(), insert the barrier task directly without
releasing the lock.
