As of r234483, vnode deactivation causes non-VPO_NOSYNC pages to be laundered. This behaviour has two problems: 1. Dirty VPO_NOSYNC pages must be laundered before the vnode can be reclaimed, and this work may be unfairly deferred to the vnlru process or an unrelated application when the system is under vnode pressure. 2. Deactivation of a vnode with dirty VPO_NOSYNC pages requires a scan of the corresponding VM object's memq for non-VPO_NOSYNC dirty pages; if the laundry thread needs to launder pages from an unreferenced such vnode, it will reactivate and deactivate the vnode with each laundering, potentially resulting in a large number of expensive scans. Therefore, ensure that all dirty pages are laundered upon deactivation, i.e., when all maps of the vnode are removed and all references are released.

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. See build(7) and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. 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. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information. 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 kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
