- Add a separate set of vnode operations that inherits from the fifo ops
and use it for fifo nodes.
- Add a VOP_SETATTR() method that allows setting the size (by silently
ignoring the requests) of fifos. This is to allow O_TRUNC opens of
fifo devices (e.g. I/O redirection in shells using ">").
- Add a VOP_PRINT() handler while I'm here.
- Align the fifo output in fifo_print() with other vn_printf() output.
- Remove the leading space from lockmgr_printinfo() so its output lines up
in vn_printf().
- lockmgr_printinfo() now ends with a newline, so remove an extra newline
from vn_printf().
So we are no longer interested in the error returned from
the *fs_doio() functions. With that we can remove the
error variable as its value is unused now.

After running a `make buildkernel', I noticed most of the Giant locks in
sysctl are only caused by a very small amount of sysctl's:
- sysctl.name2oid. This one is locked by SYSCTL_LOCK, just like
sysctl.oidfmt.
- kern.ident, kern.osrelease, kern.version, etc. These are just constant
strings.
- kern.arandom, used by the stack protector. It is already protected by
arc4_mtx.
I also saw the following sysctl's show up. Not as often as the ones
above, but still quite often:
- security.jail.jailed. Also mark security.jail.list as MPSAFE. They
don't need locking or already use allprison_lock.
- kern.devname, used by devname(3), ttyname(3), etc.
This seems to reduce Giant locking inside sysctl by ~75% in my primitive
test setup.
pathname lookups.
- Remove 'i_offset' and 'i_ino' from the ISO node structure and replace
them with local variables in the lookup routine instead.
- Cache a copy of 'i_diroff' for use during a lookup in a local variable.
- Save a copy of the found directory entry in a malloc'd buffer after a
successfull lookup before getting the vnode. This allows us to release
the buffer holding the directory block before calling vget() which
otherwise resulted in a LOR between "bufwait" and the vnode lock.
- Use an inlined version of vn_vget_ino() to handle races with ..
lookups. I had to inline the code here since cd9660 uses an internal
vget routine to save a disk I/O that would otherwise re-read the
directory block.
- Honor the requested locking flags during lookups to allow for shared
locking.
- Honor the requested locking flags passed to VFS_ROOT() and VFS_VGET()
similar to UFS.
- Don't make every ISO 9660 vnode hold a reference on the vnode of the
underlying device vnode of the mountpoint. The mountpoint already
holds a suitable reference.
Inside the kernel, the minor() function was responsible for obtaining
the device minor number of a character device. Because we made device
numbers dynamically allocated and independent of the unit number passed
to make_dev() a long time ago, it was actually a misnomer. If you really
want to obtain the device number, you should use dev2udev().
We already converted all the drivers to use dev2unit() to obtain the
device unit number, which is still used by a lot of drivers. I've
noticed not a single driver passes NULL to dev2unit(). Even if they
would, its behaviour would make little sense. This is why I've removed
the NULL check.
Ths commit removes minor(), minor2unit() and unit2minor() from the
kernel. Because there was a naming collision with uminor(), we can
rename umajor() and uminor() back to major() and minor(). This means
that the makedev(3) manual page also applies to kernel space code now.
I suspect umajor() and uminor() isn't used that often in external code,
but to make it easier for other parties to port their code, I've
increased __FreeBSD_version to 800062.
without corresponding number of fifo_open(). This causes assertion
failure in fifo_close() due to vp->v_fifoinfo being NULL for kernel
with INVARIANTS, or NULL pointer dereference otherwise. In fact, we may
ignore excess calls to fifo_close() without bad consequences.
Turn KASSERT() into the return, and print warning for now.

do pfs_vncache_alloc() for the same pfs_node and pid. In this case, we
could end up with two vnodes for the pair. Recheck the cache under the
locked pfs_vncache_mutex after all sleeping operations are done [1].
This case mostly cannot happen now because pseudofs uses exclusive vnode
locking for lookup. But it does drop the vnode lock for dotdot lookups,
and Marcus' pseudofs_vptocnp implementation is vulnerable too.
Do not call free() on the struct pfs_vdata after insmntque() failure,
because vp->v_data points to the structure, and pseudofs_reclaim()
frees it by the call to pfs_vncache_free().

In procfs map handler, and in linprocfs maps handler, do not call
vn_fullpath() while having vm map locked. This is done in anticipation
of the vop_vptocnp commit, that would make vn_fullpath sometime

Also, in linprocfs, maps handler already acquires vnode lock.

vnode in question does not need to be held. All the data structures used
during the name lookup are protected by the global name cache lock.
Instead, the caller merely needs to ensure a reference is held on the
vnode (such as vhold()) to keep it from being freed.
In the case of procfs' <pid>/file entry, grab the process lock while we
gain a new reference (via vhold()) on p_textvp to fully close races with
execve(2).
For the kern.proc.vmmap sysctl handler, use a shared vnode lock around
the call to VOP_GETATTR() rather than an exclusive lock.

and server. This replaces the RPC implementation of the NFS client and
server with the newer RPC implementation originally developed
(actually ported from the userland sunrpc code) to support the NFS
Lock Manager. I have tested this code extensively and I believe it is
stable and that performance is at least equal to the legacy RPC
implementation.
The NFS code currently contains support for both the new RPC
implementation and the older legacy implementation inherited from the
original NFS codebase. The default is to use the new implementation -
add the NFS_LEGACYRPC option to fall back to the old code. When I
merge this support back to RELENG_7, I will probably change this so
that users have to 'opt in' to get the new code.
To use RPCSEC_GSS on either client or server, you must build a kernel
which includes the KGSSAPI option and the crypto device. On the
userland side, you must build at least a new libc, mountd, mount_nfs
and gssd. You must install new versions of /etc/rc.d/gssd and
/etc/rc.d/nfsd and add 'gssd_enable=YES' to /etc/rc.conf.
As long as gssd is running, you should be able to mount an NFS
filesystem from a server that requires RPCSEC_GSS authentication. The
mount itself can happen without any kerberos credentials but all
access to the filesystem will be denied unless the accessing user has
a valid ticket file in the standard place (/tmp/krb5cc_<uid>). There
is currently no support for situations where the ticket file is in a
different place, such as when the user logged in via SSH and has
delegated credentials from that login. This restriction is also
present in Solaris and Linux. In theory, we could improve this in
future, possibly using Brooks Davis' implementation of variant
symlinks.
Supporting RPCSEC_GSS on a server is nearly as simple. You must create
service creds for the server in the form 'nfs/<fqdn>@<REALM>' and
install them in /etc/krb5.keytab. The standard heimdal utility ktutil
makes this fairly easy. After the service creds have been created, you
can add a '-sec=krb5' option to /etc/exports and restart both mountd
and nfsd.
The only other difference an administrator should notice is that nfsd
doesn't fork to create service threads any more. In normal operation,
there will be two nfsd processes, one in userland waiting for TCP
connections and one in the kernel handling requests. The latter
process will create as many kthreads as required - these should be
visible via 'top -H'. The code has some support for varying the number
of service threads according to load but initially at least, nfsd uses
a fixed number of threads according to the value supplied to its '-n'
option.
