For software like PostgreSQL and SQLite that sometimes reads sequentially
while also writing sequentially some distance behind with interleaved
syscalls on the same fd, performance is better on UFS if we do
sequential access heuristics separately for reads and writes.

O_SEARCH is defined by POSIX [0] to open a directory for searching, skipping
permissions checks on the directory itself after the initial open(). This is
close to the semantics we've historically applied for O_EXEC on a directory,
which is UB according to POSIX. Conveniently, O_SEARCH on a file is also
explicitly undefined behavior according to POSIX, so O_EXEC would be a fine
choice. The spec goes on to state that O_SEARCH and O_EXEC need not be
distinct values, but they're not defined to be the same value.
This was pointed out as an incompatibility with other systems that had made
its way into libarchive, which had assumed that O_EXEC was an alias for
O_SEARCH.
This defines compatibility O_SEARCH/FSEARCH (equivalent to O_EXEC and FEXEC
respectively) and expands our UB for O_EXEC on a directory. O_EXEC on a
directory is checked in vn_open_vnode already, so for completeness we add a
NOEXECCHECK when O_SEARCH has been specified on the top-level fd and do not
re-check that when descending in namei.

The current vnode layout is not smp-friendly by having frequently read data
avoidably sharing cachelines with very frequently modified fields. In
particular v_iflag inspected for VI_DOOMED can be found in the same line with
v_usecount. Instead make it available in the same cacheline as the v_op, v_data
and v_type which all get read all the time.
v_type is avoidably 4 bytes while the necessary data will easily fit in 1.
Shrinking it frees up 3 bytes, 2 of which get used here to introduce a new
flag field with a new value: VIRF_DOOMED.

Generally, it's preferred that an application fork/setsid if it doesn't want
to keep its controlling TTY, but it could be that a debugger is trying to
steal it instead -- so it would hook in, drop the controlling TTY, then do
some magic to set things up again. In this case, TIOCNOTTY is quite handy
and still respected by at least OpenBSD, NetBSD, and Linux as far as I can
tell.
I've dropped the note about obsoletion, as I intend to support TIOCNOTTY as

Currently si_usecount is effectively a sum of usecounts from all associated
vnodes. This is maintained by special-casing for VCHR every time usecount is
modified. Apart from complicating the code a little bit, it has a scalability
impact since it forces a read from a cacheline shared with said count.
There are no consumers of the feature in the ports tree. In head there are only
2: revoke and devfs_close. Both can get away with a weaker requirement than the
exact usecount, namely just the count of active vnodes. Changing the meaning to
the latter means we only need to modify it on 0<->1 transitions, avoiding the
check plenty of times (and entirely in something like vrefact).

Current implementation of vnode_create_vobject() and
vnode_destroy_vobject() is written so that it prepared to handle the
vm object destruction for live vnode. Practically, no filesystems use
this, except for some remnants that were present in UFS till today.
One of the consequences of that model is that each filesystem must
call vnode_destroy_vobject() in VOP_RECLAIM() or earlier, as result
all of them get rid of the v_object in reclaim.
Move the call to vnode_destroy_vobject() to vgonel() before
VOP_RECLAIM(). This makes v_object stable: either the object is NULL,
or it is valid vm object till the vnode reclamation. Remove code from
vnode_create_vobject() to handle races with the parallel destruction.

This allows replacing "sys/eventfilter.h" includes with "sys/_eventfilter.h"
in other header files (e.g., sys/{bus,conf,cpu}.h) and reduces header
pollution substantially.
EVENTHANDLER_DECLARE and EVENTHANDLER_LIST_DECLAREs were moved out of .c
files into appropriate headers (e.g., sys/proc.h, powernv/opal.h).
As a side effect of reduced header pollution, many .c files and headers no
longer contain needed definitions. The remainder of the patch addresses
adding appropriate includes to fix those files.
LOCK_DEBUG and LOCK_FILE_LINE_ARG are moved to sys/_lock.h, as required by
sys/mutex.h since r326106 (but silently protected by header pollution prior
to this change).
No functional change (intended). Of course, any out of tree modules that
relied on header pollution for sys/eventhandler.h, sys/lock.h, or
sys/mutex.h inclusion need to be fixed. __FreeBSD_version has been bumped.
The d_off field has been added to the dirent structure recently.
Currently filesystems don't support this feature. Support has been
added and tested for zfs, ufs, ext2fs, fdescfs, msdosfs and unionfs.
A stub implementation is available for cd9660, nandfs, udf and
pseudofs but hasn't been tested.
Motivation for this feature: our usecase is for a userspace nfs server
(nfs-ganesha) with zfs. At the moment we cache direntry offsets by
calling lseek once per entry, with this patch we can get the offset
directly from getdirentries(2) calls which provides a significant
speedup.

- Use NANDFS_NAME_LEN for NAME_MAX for nandfs.

ABI breakage is mitigated by providing compatibility using versioned
symbols, ingenious use of the existing padding in structures, and
by employing other tricks. Unfortunately, not everything can be
fixed, especially outside the base system. For instance, third-party
APIs which pass struct stat around are broken in backward and
forward incompatible ways.
Kinfo sysctl MIBs ABI is changed in backward-compatible way, but
there is no general mechanism to handle other sysctl MIBS which
return structures where the layout has changed. It was considered
that the breakage is either in the management interfaces, where we
usually allow ABI slip, or is not important.
Struct xvnode changed layout, no compat shims are provided.
For struct xtty, dev_t tty device member was reduced to uint32_t.
It was decided that keeping ABI compat in this case is more useful
than reporting 64-bit dev_t, for the sake of pstat.

and install the new kernel with COMPAT_FREEBSD11 option enabled,
then reboot, and only then install new world.

Right now the noexec mount option disallows image activators to try
execve the files on the mount point. Also, after r127187, noexec
also limits max_prot map entries permissions for mappings of files
from such mounts, but not the actual mapping permissions.
As result, the API behaviour is inconsistent. The files from noexec
mount can be mapped with PROT_EXEC, but if mprotect(2) drops execution
permission, it cannot be re-enabled later. Make this consistent
logically and aligned with behaviour of other systems, by disallowing
PROT_EXEC for mmap(2).
Note that this change only ensures aligned results from mmap(2) and
mprotect(2), it does not prevent actual code execution from files
coming from noexec mount. Such files can always be read into
anonymous executable memory and executed from there.

logic is now placed in the mmap hook implementation rather than requiring
it to be placed in sys/vm/vm_mmap.c. This hook allows new file types to
support mmap() as well as potentially allowing mmap() for existing file
types that do not currently support any mapping.
The vm_mmap() function is now split up into two functions. A new
vm_mmap_object() function handles the "back half" of vm_mmap() and accepts
a referenced VM object to map rather than a (handle, handle_type) tuple.
vm_mmap() is now reduced to converting a (handle, handle_type) tuple to a
a VM object and then calling vm_mmap_object() to handle the actual mapping.
The vm_mmap() function remains for use by other parts of the kernel
(e.g. device drivers and exec) but now only supports mapping vnodes,
character devices, and anonymous memory.
The mmap() system call invokes vm_mmap_object() directly with a NULL object
for anonymous mappings. For mappings using a file descriptor, the
descriptors fo_mmap() hook is invoked instead. The fo_mmap() hook is
responsible for performing type-specific checks and adjustments to
arguments as well as possibly modifying mapping parameters such as flags
or the object offset. The fo_mmap() hook routines then call
vm_mmap_object() to handle the actual mapping.
The fo_mmap() hook is optional. If it is not set, then fo_mmap() will
fail with ENODEV. A fo_mmap() hook is implemented for regular files,
character devices, and shared memory objects (created via shm_open()).
While here, consistently use the VM_PROT_* constants for the vm_prot_t
type for the 'prot' variable passed to vm_mmap() and vm_mmap_object()
as well as the vm_mmap_vnode() and vm_mmap_cdev() helper routines.
Previously some places were using the mmap()-specific PROT_* constants
instead. While this happens to work because PROT_xx == VM_PROT_xx,
using VM_PROT_* is more correct.
