class. Previously, the allocation was also allowed to completely drain
the reserve of the free pages, being translated to VM_ALLOC_INTERRUPT
request class for vm_page_alloc() and similar functions.
Allow the caller of malloc* to request the 'deep drain' semantic by
providing M_USE_RESERVE flag, now translated to VM_ALLOC_INTERRUPT
class. Previously, it resulted in less aggressive VM_ALLOC_SYSTEM
allocation class.
Centralize the translation of the M_* malloc(9) flags in the single
inline function malloc2vm_flags().

because the queue itself serves no purpose. When a held page is freed,
inserting the page into the hold queue has the side effect of setting the
page's "queue" field to PQ_HOLD. Later, when the page is unheld, it will
be freed because the "queue" field is PQ_HOLD. In other words, PQ_HOLD is
used as a flag, not a queue. So, this change replaces it with a flag.
To accomodate the new page flag, make the page's "flags" field wider and
"oflags" field narrower.

network file systems (not only NFS proper). Short reads cause pages
other then the requested one, which were not filled by read response,
to stay invalid.
Change the vm_page_readahead_finish() interface to not take the error
code, but instead to make a decision to free or to (de)activate the
page only by its validity. As result, not requested invalid pages are
freed even if the read RPC indicated success.

This makes the RED/BLACK support go away and simplifies a lot vmradix

the trie will be little enough that keeping 2 diffetnt will be

pmap_page_is_write_mapped() in order to completely encapsulate all direct
access to PGA_WRITEABLE in the pmap layer.
Aesthetics aside, I am making this change because amd64 will likely begin
using an alternative method to track write mappings, and having
pmap_page_is_write_mapped() in place allows me to make such a change
without further modification to the MI VM layer.
As an added bonus, tidy up some nearby comments concerning page flags.

De-inline the PHYS_TO_VM_PAGE() since it now carries code to iterate

A hash container might be developed instead of range registration
interface, and fake pages could be put automatically into the hash,
were PHYS_TO_VM_PAGE() could look them up later. This should be
considered before the MFC of the commit is done.

callers of vm_page_insert().
The default action for every caller is to unwind-back the operation
besides vm_page_rename() where this has proven to be impossible to do.
For that case, it just spins until the page is not available to be
allocated. However, due to vm_page_rename() to be mostly rare (and
having never hit this panic in the past) it is tought to be a very
seldom thing and not a possible performance factor.
The patch has been tested with an atomic counter returning NULL from
the zone allocator every 1/100000 allocations. Per-printf, I've verified
that a typical buildkernel could trigger this 30 times. The patch
survived to 2 hours of repeated buildkernel/world.
Several technical notes:
- The vm_page_insert() is moved, in several callers, closer to failure
points. This could be committed separately before vmcontention hits
the tree just to verify -CURRENT is happy with it.
- vm_page_rename() does not need to have the page lock in the callers
as it hide that as an implementation detail. Do the locking internally.
- now vm_page_insert() returns an int, with 0 meaning everything was ok,
thus KPI is broken by this patch.

Since the address of vm_page lock mutex depends on the kernel options,
it is easy for module to get out of sync with the kernel.
No vm_page_lockptr() accessor is provided for modules. It can be added
later if needed, unless proper KPI is developed to serve the needs.

yielding a new public interface, vm_page_alloc_contig(). This new function
addresses some of the limitations of the current interfaces, contigmalloc()
and kmem_alloc_contig(). For example, the physically contiguous memory that
is allocated with those interfaces can only be allocated to the kernel vm
object and must be mapped into the kernel virtual address space. It also
provides functionality that vm_phys_alloc_contig() doesn't, such as wiring
the returned pages. Moreover, unlike that function, it respects the low
water marks on the paging queues and wakes up the page daemon when
necessary. That said, at present, this new function can't be applied to all
types of vm objects. However, that restriction will be eliminated in the
coming weeks.
From a design standpoint, this change also addresses an inconsistency
between vm_phys_alloc_contig() and the other vm_phys_alloc*() functions.
Specifically, vm_phys_alloc_contig() manipulated vm_page fields that other
functions in vm/vm_phys.c didn't. Moreover, vm_phys_alloc_contig() knew
about vnodes and reservations. Now, vm_page_alloc_contig() is responsible
for these things.
