Don Lewis ad9f180121 Back out the removal of LK_NOWAIT from the VOP_LOCK() call in
vlrureclaim() in vfs_subr.c 1.636  because waiting for the vnode
lock aggravates an existing race condition.  It is also undesirable
according to the commit log for 1.631.

Fix the tiny race condition that remains by rechecking the vnode
state after grabbing the vnode lock and grabbing the vnode interlock.

Fix the problem of other threads being starved (which 1.636 attempted
to fix by removing LK_NOWAIT) by calling uio_yield() periodically
in vlrureclaim().  This should be more deterministic than hoping
that VOP_LOCK() without LK_NOWAIT will block, which may not happen
in this loop.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
