- add RM_SLEEPABLE to use sx(9) as the back-end lock in order to sleep while

- change rm_noreadtoken to a cpu bitmask to indicate which CPUs need to go
through the lock/unlock in order to synchronize. As a side effect, this
also avoids IPI to CPUs without any readers during rm_wlock.

Add the check also to vaccess(9), vaccess_acl_nfs4(9) and

execve(2). Because ZFS doesn't use vaccess(9) for VEXEC, add the check
to zfs_freebsd_access() too. There may be other file systems which are
not using vaccess*() functions and need to be handled separately.

for socket, when specified POLLIN|POLLOUT in events, you would have one
selfd registered for receiving socket buffer, and one for sending. Now,
if both events are not ready to fire at the time of the initial scan,
but are simultaneously ready after the sleep, pollrescan() would iterate
over the pollfd struct twice. Since both times revents is not zero,
returned value would be off by one.
Fix this by recalculating the return value in pollout().

Actually it is hard to properly handle such a failure, especially in MNT_UPDATE
case. The only reason for the vfs_allocate_syncvnode() function to fail is
getnewvnode() failure. Fortunately it is impossible for current implementation
of getnewvnode() to fail, so we can assert this and make
vfs_allocate_syncvnode() void. This in turn free us from handling its failures
in the mount code.

Interrupt driven configuration hooks serve two purposes: they are a
mechanism for registering for a callback that is invoked once interrupt
services are available, and they hold off root device selection so long
as any configuration hooks are still active. Before this change, it was
not possible to safely register additional hooks from the context of a
configuration hook callback. The need for this feature arises when
interrupts are required to discover new devices (e.g. access to the XenStore
to find para-virtualized devices) which in turn also require the ability
to hold off root device selection until some lengthy, interrupt driven,
configuration task has completed (e.g. Xen front/back device driver
negotiation).
More specifically, the mutex protecting the list of active configuration
hooks is never held during a callback, and static information is used
to ensure proper ordering and only a single callback to each hook even
when faced with registration or removal of a hook during an active run.

time-of-day clock or vice versa. For x86 systems, RTC resolution is one
second and we used to lose up to one second whenever we initialize system
time from RTC or write system time back to RTC. With this change, margin
of error per conversion is roughly between -0.5 and +0.5 second rather
than between -1 and 0 second. Note that it does not take care of errors
from getnanotime(9) (which is up to 1/hz second) or CLOCK_GETTIME() latency.
These are just too expensive to correct and it is not worthy of the cost.

However, that was not mention at all, the problem was not reported, the
patch has not been MFCed and the fix is mostly improper.
Fix the original overflow (caused when 32 CPUs must be detected) by
just using a different mathematical computation (it also makes more
explicit the size of operands involved, which is good in the moment
waiting for a more complete support for a large number of CPUs).

the vfs.read_max default. For most systems this means going from 128 KiB
to 256 KiB, which is still very conservative and lower than what most
other operating systems use, but as a sane default should not
interfere much with existing systems.
For systems with RAID volumes and/or virtualization envirnments, where
read performance is very important, increasing this sysctl tunable to 32
or even more will demonstratively yield additional performance benefits.
If MAXPHYS ever gets bumped up, it will probably be a good idea to slave
read_max to it.
