maintaining better LRU of active pages.
- Change v_free_target to include the quantity previously represented by
v_cache_min so we don't need to add them together everywhere we use them.
- Add a pageout_wakeup_thresh that sets the free page count trigger for
waking the page daemon. Set this 10% above v_free_min so we wakeup before
any phase transitions in vm users.
- Adjust down v_free_target now that we're willing to accept more pagedaemon
wakeups. This means we process fewer pages in one iteration as well,
leading to shorter lock hold times and less overall disruption.
- Eliminate vm_pageout_page_stats(). This was a minor variation on the
PQ_ACTIVE segment of the normal pageout daemon. Instead we now process
1 / vm_pageout_update_period pages every second. This causes us to visit
the whole active list every 60 seconds. Previously we would only maintain
the active LRU when we were short on pages which would mean it could be
woefully out of date.

Add definitions for e2fs_daddr_t, e4fs_daddr_t in addition
to the already existing e2fs_lbn_t and adjust them for ext4.
Other than making the code more readable these changes should
fix problems related to big filesystems.
Setting the proper types can be tricky so the process was
helped by looking at UFS. In our implementation, logical block
numbers can be negative and the code depends on it. In ext2,
block numbers are unsigned so it is convenient to keep
e2fs_daddr_t unsigned and use the complete 32 bits. In the
case of e4fs_daddr_t, while the value should be unsigned, for
ext4 we only need to support 48 bits so preserving an extra
bit from the sign is not an issue.
While here also drop the ext2_setblock() prototype that was
never used.

routines and thus assert if one passes in a rate code with the
high bit set.
Since the high bit can indicate either IEEE80211_RATE_BASIC or
IEEE80211_RATE_MCS, it's up to the caller to determine whether
the rate is 11n or not, and either mask out the BASIC bit, or
call a different function.
(Yes, this does mean that net80211 should grow 11n-aware rate2phytype()
and rate2plcp() functions..)
This may need to happen for the other drivers - it's currently only

extensions and also tried to be link time compatible with ports libiconv.
This splits that functionality and enables the parts that shouldn't
interfere with the port by default.
WITH_ICONV (now on by default) - adds iconv.h, iconv_open(3) etc.
WITH_LIBICONV_COMPAT (off by default) adds the libiconv_open etc API, linker
symbols and even a stub libiconv.so.3 that are good enough to be able
to 'pkg delete -f libiconv' on a running system and reasonably expect it
to work.
I have tortured many machines over the last few days to try and reduce
the possibilities of foot-shooting as much as I can. I've successfully
recompiled to enable and disable the libiconv_compat modes, ports that use
libiconv alongside system iconv etc. If you don't enable the
WITH_LIBICONV_COMPAT switch, they don't share symbol space.
This is an extension of behavior on other system. iconv(3) is a standard
libc interface and libiconv port expects to be able to run alongside it on
systems that have it.

probes declared in a kernel module when that module is unloaded. In
particular,
* Unloading a module with active SDT probes will cause a panic. [1]
* A module's (FBT/SDT) probes aren't destroyed when the module is unloaded;
trying to use them after the fact will generally cause a panic.
This change fixes both problems by porting the DTrace module load/unload
handlers from illumos and registering them with the corresponding
EVENTHANDLER(9) handlers. This allows the DTrace framework to destroy all
probes defined in a module when that module is unloaded, and to prevent a
module unload from proceeding if some of its probes are active. The latter
problem has already been fixed for FBT probes by checking lf->nenabled in
kern_kldunload(), but moving the check into the DTrace framework generalizes
it to all kernel providers and also fixes a race in the current
implementation (since a probe may be activated between the check and the
call to linker_file_unload()).
Additionally, the SDT implementation has been reworked to define SDT
providers/probes/argtypes in linker sets rather than using SYSINIT/SYSUNINIT
to create and destroy SDT probes when a module is loaded or unloaded. This
simplifies things quite a bit since it means that pretty much all of the SDT
code can live in sdt.ko, and since it becomes easier to integrate SDT with
the DTrace framework. Furthermore, this allows FreeBSD to be quite flexible
in that SDT providers spanning multiple modules can be created on the fly
when a module is loaded; at the moment it looks like illumos' SDT
implementation requires all SDT probes to be statically defined in a single
kernel table.

command register. The lazy BAR allocation code in FreeBSD sometimes
disables this bit when it detects a range conflict, and will re-enable
it on demand when a driver allocates the BAR. Thus, the bit is no longer
a reliable indication of capability, and should not be checked. This
results in the elimination of a lot of code from drivers, and also gives
the opportunity to simplify a lot of drivers to use a helper API to set
the busmaster enable bit.

Basic support for extents was implemented by Zheng Liu as part
of his Google Summer of Code in 2010. This support is read-only
at this time.
In addition to extents we also support the huge_file extension
for read-only purposes. This works nicely with the additional
support for birthtime/nanosec timestamps and dir_index that
have been added lately.
The implementation may not work for all ext4 filesystems as
it doesn't support some features that are being enabled by
default on recent linux like flex_bg. Nevertheless, the feature
should be very useful for migration or simple access in
filesystems that have been converted from ext2/3 or don't use
incompatible features.
Special thanks to Zheng Liu for his dedication and continued
work to support ext2 in FreeBSD.
