now always allocates a new vnode.
- Define a new function, vnlru_free, which frees vnodes from the free list.
It takes as a parameter the number of vnodes to free, which is
wantfreevnodes - freevnodes when called from vnlru_proc or 1 when
called from getnewvnode(). For now, getnewvnode() still tries to reclaim
a free vnode before creating a new one when we are near the limit.
- Define a function, vdestroy, which handles the actual release of memory
and teardown of locks, etc. This could become a uma_dtor() routine.
- Get rid of minvnodes. Now wantfreevnodes is 1/4th the max vnodes. This
keeps more unreferenced vnodes around so that files which have only
been stat'd are less likely to be kicked out of the system before we
have a chance to read them, etc. These vnodes may still be freed via
the normal vnlru_proc() routines which may some day become a real lru.
before it can call VOP_INACTIVE(). This must use the EXCLUPGRADE path
because we may violate some lock order with another locked vnode if
we drop and reacquire the lock. If EXCLUPGRADE fails, we mark the
vnode with VI_OWEINACT. This case should be very rare.
- Clear VI_OWEINACT in vinactive() and vbusy().
- If VI_OWEINACT is set in vgone() do the VOP_INACTIVE call here as well.

- Move VSHOULDBUSY, VSHOULDFREE, and VTRYRECYCLE into vfs_subr.c so
no one else attempts to grow a dependency on them.
- Now that objects with pages hold the vnode we don't have to do unlocked
checks for the page count in the vm object in VSHOULDFREE. These three
macros could simply check for holdcnt state transitions to determine
whether the vnode is on the free list already, but the extra safety
the flag affords us is probably worth the minimal cost.
- The leafonly sysctl and code have been dead for several years now,
remove the sysctl and the code that employed it from vtryrecycle().
- vtryrecycle() also no longer has to check the object's page count as
the object holds the vnode until it reaches 0.

to use only the holdcnt to determine whether a vnode may be recycled,
simplifying the V* macros as well as vtryrecycle(), etc.

vtryrecycle(). All obj refs also ref the vnode.
- Consistently use v_incr_usecount() to increment the usecount. This will
be more important later.

- Add a vn_start_write/vn_finished_write around vlrureclaim so we don't do
writing ops without suspending. This could suspend the vlruproc which
should not be a problem under normal circumstances.
- Manually implement VMIGHTFREE in vlrureclaim as this was the only instance
where it was used.
- Acquire a lock before calling vgone() as it now requires it.
- Move the acquisition of the vnode interlock from vtryrecycle() to
getnewvnode() so that if it fails we don't drop and reacquire the
vnode_free_list_mtx.
- Check for a usecount or holdcount at the end of vtryrecycle() in case
someone grabbed a ref while we were recycling. Abort the recycle, and
on the final ref drop this vnode will be placed on the head of the free
list.
- Move the redundant VOP_INACTIVE protection code into the local
vinactive() routine to avoid code bloat.
- Keep the vnode lock held across calls to vgone() in several places.
- vgonel() no longer uses XLOCK, instead callers must hold an exclusive
vnode lock. The VI_DOOMED flag is set to allow other threads to detect
a vnode which is no longer valid. This flag is set until the last
reference is gone, and there are no chances for a new ref. vgonel()
holds this lock across the entire function, which greatly simplifies
logic.
_ Only vfree() in one place in vgone() not three.
- Adjust vget() to check the VI_DOOMED flag prior to waiting on the lock
in the LK_NOWAIT case. In other cases, check after we have slept and
acquired an exlusive lock. This will simulate the old vx_wait()
behavior.

considered to be as good as an exclusive lock, although there is still a
possibility of someone acquiring a VOP LOCK while xlock is held.

List devfs_dirents rather than vnodes off their shared struct cdev, this
saves a pointer field in the vnode at the expense of a field in the
devfs_dirent. There are often 100 times more vnodes so this is bargain.
In addition it makes it harder for people to try to do stypid things like
"finding the vnode from cdev".
Since DEVFS handles all VCHR nodes now, we can do the vnode related
cleanup in devfs_reclaim() instead of in dev_rel() and vgonel().
Similarly, we can do the struct cdev related cleanup in dev_rel()
instead of devfs_reclaim().
rename idestroy_dev() to destroy_devl() for consistency.
Add LIST_ENTRY de_alias to struct devfs_dirent.
Remove v_specnext from struct vnode.
Change si_hlist to si_alist in struct cdev.
String new devfs vnodes' devfs_dirent on si_alist when
we create them and take them off in devfs_reclaim().
Fix devfs_revoke() accordingly. Also don't clear fields
devfs_reclaim() will clear when called from vgone();
Let devfs_reclaim() call dev_rel() instead of vgonel().
Move the usecount tracking from dev_rel() to devfs_reclaim(),
and let dev_rel() take a struct cdev argument instead of vnode.
Destroy SI_CHEAPCLONE devices in dev_rel() (instead of
devfs_reclaim()) when they are no longer used. (This
should maybe happen in devfs_close() instead.)
patch from kan@).
Pull bufobj_invalbuf() out of vinvalbuf() and make g_vfs call it on
close. This is not yet a generally safe function, but for this very
specific use it is safe. This solves the problem with buffers not
being flushed by unmount or after failed mount attempts.

- Protect access to mnt_kern_flag with the mointpoint mutex.
- Remove some KASSERTs which are not legal checks without the appropriate
locks held.
- Use VCANRECYCLE() rather than rolling several slightly different
checks together.
- Return from vtryrecycle() with a recycled vnode rather than a locked
vnode. This simplifies some locking.
- Remove several GIANT_REQUIRED lines.
- Add a few KASSERTs to help with INACT debugging.

As far as I can tell, no files that have made it safely to disk

TAILQ_FOREACH_SAFE().
Loose the error pointer argument and return any errors the normal way.
Return EAGAIN for the case where more work needs to be done.
I'm not sure why a credential was added to these in the first place, it is
not used anywhere and it doesn't make much sense:
The credentials for syncing a file (ability to write to the
file) should be checked at the system call level.
Credentials for syncing one or more filesystems ("none")
should be checked at the system call level as well.
If the filesystem implementation needs a particular credential
to carry out the syncing it would logically have to the
cached mount credential, or a credential cached along with
any delayed write data.

split the conversion of the remaining three filesystems out from the root
mounting changes, so in one go:
cd9660:
Convert to nmount.
Add omount compat shims.
Remove dedicated rootfs mounting code.
Use vfs_mountedfrom()
Rely on vfs_mount.c calling VFS_STATFS()
nfs(client):
Convert to nmount (the simple way, mount_nfs(8) is still necessary).
Add omount compat shims.
Drop COMPAT_PRELITE2 mount arg compatibility.
ffs:
Convert to nmount.
Add omount compat shims.
Remove dedicated rootfs mounting code.
Use vfs_mountedfrom()
Rely on vfs_mount.c calling VFS_STATFS()
Remove vfs_omount() method, all filesystems are now converted.
Remove MNTK_WANTRDWR, handling RO/RW conversions is a filesystem
task, and they all do it now.
Change rootmounting to use DEVFS trampoline:
vfs_mount.c:
Mount devfs on /. Devfs needs no 'from' so this is clean.
symlink /dev to /. This makes it possible to lookup /dev/foo.
Mount "real" root filesystem on /.
Surgically move the devfs mountpoint from under the real root
filesystem onto /dev in the real root filesystem.
Remove now unnecessary getdiskbyname().
kern_init.c:
Don't do devfs mounting and rootvnode assignment here, it was
already handled by vfs_mount.c.
Remove now unused bdevvp(), addaliasu() and addalias(). Put the
few necessary lines in devfs where they belong. This eliminates the
second-last source of bogo vnodes, leaving only the lemming-syncer.
Remove rootdev variable, it doesn't give meaning in a global context and
was not trustworth anyway. Correct information is provided by
statfs(/).
initializations but we did have lofty goals and big ideals.
Adjust to more contemporary circumstances and gain type checking.
Replace the entire vop_t frobbing thing with properly typed
structures. The only casualty is that we can not add a new
VOP_ method with a loadable module. History has not given
us reason to belive this would ever be feasible in the the
first place.
Eliminate in toto VOCALL(), vop_t, VNODEOP_SET() etc.
Give coda correct prototypes and function definitions for
all vop_()s.
Generate a bit more data from the vnode_if.src file: a
struct vop_vector and protype typedefs for all vop methods.
Add a new vop_bypass() and make vop_default be a pointer
to another struct vop_vector.
Remove a lot of vfs_init since vop_vector is ready to use
from the compiler.
Cast various vop_mumble() to void * with uppercase name,
for instance VOP_PANIC, VOP_NULL etc.
Implement VCALL() by making vdesc_offset the offsetof() the
relevant function pointer in vop_vector. This is disgusting
but since the code is generated by a script comparatively
safe. The alternative for nullfs etc. would be much worse.
Fix up all vnode method vectors to remove casts so they
become typesafe. (The bulk of this is generated by scripts)
