of the same lock_owner4 string. As such, the handling of cleanup
of lock_owners could be simplified. This simplification permitted
the client to do a ReleaseLockOwner operation when the process that
the lock_owner4 string represents, has exited. This permits the
server to release any storage related to the lock_owner4 string
before the associated open is closed. Without this change, it
is possible to exhaust a server's storage when a long running
process opens a file and then many child processes do locking
on the file, because the open doesn't get closed. A similar patch
was applied to the Linux NFSv4 client recently so that it wouldn't
exhaust a server's storage.

NFS server and reuse it for writes as well to allow writes to the backing
store to be clustered.
- Use a prime number for the size of the heuristic table (1017 is not
prime).
- Move the logic to locate a heuristic entry from the table and compute
the sequential count out of VOP_READ() and into a separate routine.
- Use the logic from sequential_heuristic() in vfs_vnops.c to update the
seqcount when a sequential access is performed rather than just
increasing seqcount by 1. This lets the clustering count ramp up
faster.
- Allow for some reordering of RPCs and if it is detected leave the current
seqcount as-is rather than dropping back to a seqcount of 1. Also,
when out of order access is encountered, cut seqcount in half rather than
dropping it all the way back to 1 to further aid with reordering.
- Fix the new NFS server to properly update the next offset after a
successful VOP_READ() so that the readahead actually works.
Some of these changes came from an earlier patch by Bjorn Gronwall that was
forwarded to me by bde@.

vnode locking for read, readdir, readlink, getattr and access.
It is hoped that this will improve server performance for these
operations, since they will no longer be serialized for a given
file/vnode.
- Don't deduct wired pages from total usable counts because it does not
make any sense. To make things worse, on systems where swap size is
smaller than physical memory and use a lot of wired pages (e.g. ZFS),
tmpfs can suddenly have free space of 0 because of this;
- Count cached pages as available; [1]
- Don't count inactive pages as available, technically we could but that
might be too aggressive; [1]

nullfs. The problem is that resulting vnode is only required to be
held on return from the successfull call to vop, instead of being
referenced.
Nullfs VOP_INACTIVE() method reclaims the vnode, which in combination
with the VOP_VPTOCNP() interface means that the directory vnode
returned from VOP_VPTOCNP() is reclaimed in advance, causing
vn_fullpath() to error with EBADF or like.
Change the interface for VOP_VPTOCNP(), now the dvp must be
referenced. Convert all in-tree implementations of VOP_VPTOCNP(),
which is trivial, because vhold(9) and vref(9) are similar in the
locking prerequisites. Out-of-tree fs implementation of VOP_VPTOCNP(),
if any, should have no trouble with the fix.

Also, modify the calculation for small values of desiredvnodes

It seems that the default value for nm_wcommitsize is very
conservative and may need to change at some time.

-- highly experimental even. So far the closest to a bug in TMPFS that people
have gotten to relates to how ZFS can take away from the memory that TMPFS
needs. One can argue that such is not a bug in TMPFS. Irrespective, even if
there is a bug here and there in TMPFS, it's not in our own advantage to
scare people away from using TMPFS. I for one have been using it, even with
ZFS, very successfully.
The SYSCTL_NODE macro defines a list that stores all child-elements of
that node. If there's no SYSCTL_DECL macro anywhere else, there's no
reason why it shouldn't be static.

patch modifies makesyscalls.sh to prefix all of the non-compatibility
calls (e.g. not linux_, freebsd32_) with sys_ and updates the kernel
entry points and all places in the code that use them. It also
fixes an additional name space collision between the kernel function
psignal and the libc function of the same name by renaming the kernel
psignal kern_psignal(). By introducing this change now we will ease future
MFCs that change syscalls.

an attempt to do an Open operation on any type of file other

should be returned for all non-regular files and not just symlinks,
so that the Linux client would work correctly.
This change does not affect the FreeBSD NFSv4 client and is not
