memory mapped pages being written back on an NFS mount.
Since any thread can call VOP_PUTPAGES() to write back a
dirty page, the credentials of that thread may not have
write access to the file on an NFS server. (Often the uid
is 0, which may be mapped to "nobody" in the NFS server.)
Although there is no completely correct fix for this
(NFS servers check access on every write RPC instead of at
open/mmap time), this patch avoids the common cases by
holding onto a credential that recently opened the file
for writing and uses that credential for the write RPCs
being done by VOP_PUTPAGES() for both NFS clients.

misses for lookups of "..". For name cache entries for non-".."
directories, the cache entry serves double duty. It maps both the
named directory plus ".." for the parent of the directory. As such,
two ctime values (one for each of the directory and its parent) need
to be saved in the name cache entry.
This patch adds an entry for ctime of the parent directory to the
name cache. It also adds an additional uma zone for large entries
with this time value, in order to minimize memory wastage.
As well, it fixes a couple of cases where the mtime of the parent
directory was being saved instead of ctime for positive name cache
entries. With this patch, Lookup RPC counts return to values similar

entries on one client when a directory was renamed on another client. The
root cause for the stale entry being trusted is that each per-vnode nfsnode
structure has a single 'n_ctime' timestamp used to validate positive name
cache entries. However, if there are multiple entries for a single vnode,
they all share a single timestamp. To fix this, extend the name cache
to allow filesystems to optionally store a timestamp value in each name
cache entry. The NFS clients now fetch the timestamp associated with
each name cache entry and use that to validate cache hits instead of the
timestamps previously stored in the nfsnode. Another part of the fix is
that the NFS clients now use timestamps from the post-op attributes of
RPCs when adding name cache entries rather than pulling the timestamps out
of the file's attribute cache. The latter is subject to races with other
lookups updating the attribute cache concurrently. Some more details:
- Add a variant of nfsm_postop_attr() to the old NFS client that can return
a vattr structure with a copy of the post-op attributes.
- Handle lookups of "." as a special case in the NFS clients since the name
cache does not store name cache entries for ".", so we cannot get a
useful timestamp. It didn't really make much sense to recheck the
attributes on the the directory to validate the namecache hit for "."
anyway.
- ABI compat shims for the name cache routines are present in this commit
so that it is safe to MFC.

as the attributes are flushed before fetching the post-op attributes from
the LOOKUP RPC which most (all?) NFSv3 servers provide, so the post-op
attributes should populate the cache.
Now all NFS open() calls will always clear the cached attributes during the
nfs_lookup() prior to nfs_open() in the !NMODIFIED case to provide CTOC.
As a result, we can remove the conditional flushing of the attribute

file via NFS. Specifically, to satisfy close-to-open-consistency, the NFS
client always performs at least one RPC on a file during an open(2) to see
if the file has changed. Normally this RPC is an ACCESS or GETATTR RPC
that is forced by flushing a file's attribute cache during nfs_open() and
then requesting new attributes. However, if the file is noticed to be
stale during nfs_open(), the only recourse is to fail the open(2) call
with ESTALE. On the other hand, if the ACCESS or GETATTR RPC is sent
during nfs_lookup(), then the NFS client can fall back to a LOOKUP RPC to
obtain the new file handle in the case that a file has been replaced.
This change causes the NFS client to flush the attribute cache during
nfs_lookup() when validating a name cache hit if the attributes fetched
during nfs_lookup() can be reused in nfs_open(). This allows the client
to open a replaced file via the new file handle the first time that it
notices a replaced file rather than failing with ESTALE in some cases.

Specifically, clients only trust -ve cache entries while the directory
remains unchanged and discard any -ve cache entries for a directory when
they notice that the modification time of a directory entry changes. The
race involves two concurrent lookups as follows:
- Thread A does a lookup for file 'foo' which sends a lookup RPC to the
server. The lookup fails and the server replies.
- The 'foo' file is created (either by the same client or a different
client) updating the modification time on the parent directory of 'foo'.
- Thread B does a lookup for a different file 'bar' which updates the
cached attributes of the parent directory of 'foo' to reflect the new
modification time after 'foo' was created.
- Thread A finally resumes execution to parse the reply from the NFS
server. It adds a -ve cache entry and sets the cached value of the
directory's modification time that is used for invalidating -ve cached
lookups to the new modification time set by thread B.
At this point, future lookups of 'foo' will honor the -ve cached entry
until the cached entry is pushed out of the name cache's LRU or the
modification time of the parent directory is changed again by some other
change. The fix is to read the directory's modification time before
sending the lookup RPC and use that cached modification time when setting
the directory's cached modification time. Also, we do not add a -ve cache
entry if another thread has added -ve cache entry that set the directory's
cached modification time to a newer value than the value we read before
sending the lookup RPC.

network stack memory allocator. Modify vnet to use the allocator
instead of monolithic global container structures (vinet, ...). This
change solves many binary compatibility problems associated with
VIMAGE, and restores ELF symbols for virtualized global variables.
Each virtualized global variable exists as a "reference copy", and also
once per virtual network stack. Virtualized global variables are
tagged at compile-time, placing the in a special linker set, which is
loaded into a contiguous region of kernel memory. Virtualized global
variables in the base kernel are linked as normal, but those in modules
are copied and relocated to a reserved portion of the kernel's vnet
region with the help of a the kernel linker.
Virtualized global variables exist in per-vnet memory set up when the
network stack instance is created, and are initialized statically from
the reference copy. Run-time access occurs via an accessor macro, which
converts from the current vnet and requested symbol to a per-vnet
address. When "options VIMAGE" is not compiled into the kernel, normal
global ELF symbols will be used instead and indirection is avoided.
This change restores static initialization for network stack global
variables, restores support for non-global symbols and types, eliminates
the need for many subsystem constructors, eliminates large per-subsystem
structures that caused many binary compatibility issues both for
monitoring applications (netstat) and kernel modules, removes the
per-function INIT_VNET_*() macros throughout the stack, eliminates the
need for vnet_symmap ksym(2) munging, and eliminates duplicate
definitions of virtualized globals under VIMAGE_GLOBALS.

previously always pointing to the default vnet context, to a
dynamically changing thread-local one. The currvnet context
should be set on entry to networking code via CURVNET_SET() macros,
and reverted to previous state via CURVNET_RESTORE(). Recursions
on curvnet are permitted, though strongly discuouraged.
This change should have no functional impact on nooptions VIMAGE
kernel builds, where CURVNET_* macros expand to whitespace.
The curthread->td_vnet (aka curvnet) variable's purpose is to be an
indicator of the vnet context in which the current network-related
operation takes place, in case we cannot deduce the current vnet
context from any other source, such as by looking at mbuf's
m->m_pkthdr.rcvif->if_vnet, sockets's so->so_vnet etc. Moreover, so
far curvnet has turned out to be an invaluable consistency checking
aid: it helps to catch cases when sockets, ifnets or any other
vnet-aware structures may have leaked from one vnet to another.
The exact placement of the CURVNET_SET() / CURVNET_RESTORE() macros
was a result of an empirical iterative process, whith an aim to
reduce recursions on CURVNET_SET() to a minimum, while still reducing
the scope of CURVNET_SET() to networking only operations - the
alternative would be calling CURVNET_SET() on each system call entry.
In general, curvnet has to be set in three typicall cases: when
processing socket-related requests from userspace or from within the
kernel; when processing inbound traffic flowing from device drivers
to upper layers of the networking stack, and when executing
timer-driven networking functions.
This change also introduces a DDB subcommand to show the list of all
