Alan Cox d19ef81437 The synchronization provided by vm object locking has eliminated the
need for most calls to vm_page_busy().  Specifically, most calls to
vm_page_busy() occur immediately prior to a call to vm_page_remove().
In such cases, the containing vm object is locked across both calls.
Consequently, the setting of the vm page's PG_BUSY flag is not even
visible to other threads that are following the synchronization
protocol.

This change (1) eliminates the calls to vm_page_busy() that
immediately precede a call to vm_page_remove() or functions, such as
vm_page_free() and vm_page_rename(), that call it and (2) relaxes the
requirement in vm_page_remove() that the vm page's PG_BUSY flag is
set.  Now, the vm page's PG_BUSY flag is set only when the vm object
lock is released while the vm page is still in transition.  Typically,
this is when it is undergoing I/O.

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.
