the final set of traces -- someone with more busdma background
will probably want to review and expand this, as well as port to
other platforms. This tracing is sufficient to identify key
busdma events on i386, and in particular to draw attention to
bounce buffering events that may have a substantial performance
impact.
o Instead of locking and unlocking all over the place, use
lock assertions to make certain that the bfe lock is held
where necessary.
o Create locked and unlocked versions of bfe_init and bfe_start. These
functions can be called from outside the module and by functions
within the bfe module. The calls from outside the module don't
hold the bfe lock so the unlocked versions called by these functions
simple obtain the bfe lock and call the locked version.
- Fix a typo (scp) in the locking macros that only worked because in all the
instances in which it was called the softc pointer happened to be named 'sc'.
- Mark the interrupt MPSAFE

without a mountpoint. In this scenario, there's no useful source for
a label on the vnode, since we can't query the mountpoint for the
labeling strategy or default label.
jest, of most excellent fancy: he hath taught me lessons a thousand
times; and now, how abhorred in my imagination it is! my gorge rises
at it. Here were those hacks that I have curs'd I know not how
oft. Where be your kludges now? your workarounds? your layering
violations, that were wont to set the table on a roar?
Move the skeleton of specfs into devfs where it now belongs and
bury the rest.
Initialize b_bufobj for all buffers.
Make incore() and gbincore() take a bufobj instead of a vnode.
Make inmem() local to vfs_bio.c
Change a lot of VI_[UN]LOCK(bp->b_vp) to BO_[UN]LOCK(bp->b_bufobj)
also VI_MTX() to BO_MTX(),
Make buf_vlist_add() take a bufobj instead of a vnode.
Eliminate other uses of bp->b_vp where bp->b_bufobj will do.
Various minor polishing: remove "register", turn panic into KASSERT,
use new function declarations, TAILQ_FOREACH_SAFE() etc.
that most packages can not be included. It's much easier to list those
that we do want on disc1 for ia64. We only need to list 11 of them.
Apply proper indentation for better readability.
in the g_up and g_down threads. Each time a bio is propelled up and
down the stack, an event is generating showing the provider, offset,
and length, as well as thread wakeup and work status information.
Add bufobj_wref(), bufobj_wdrop() and bufobj_wwait() to handle the write
count on a bufobj. Bufobj_wdrop() replaces vwakeup().
Use these functions all relevant places except in ffs_softdep.c where
the use if interlocked_sleep() makes this impossible.
Rename b_vnbufs to b_bobufs now that we touch all the relevant files anyway.
