Jeff Roberson fc03d22b17 Refine UMA bucket allocation to reduce space consumption and improve
performance.

 - Always free to the alloc bucket if there is space.  This gives LIFO
   allocation order to improve hot-cache performance.  This also allows
   for zones with a single bucket per-cpu rather than a pair if the entire
   working set fits in one bucket.
 - Enable per-cpu caches of buckets.  To prevent recursive bucket
   allocation one bucket zone still has per-cpu caches disabled.
 - Pick the initial bucket size based on a table driven maximum size
   per-bucket rather than the number of items per-page.  This gives
   more sane initial sizes.
 - Only grow the bucket size when we face contention on the zone lock, this
   causes bucket sizes to grow more slowly.
 - Adjust the number of items per-bucket to account for the header space.
   This packs the buckets more efficiently per-page while making them
   not quite powers of two.
 - Eliminate the per-zone free bucket list.  Always return buckets back
   to the bucket zone.  This ensures that as zones grow into larger
   bucket sizes they eventually discard the smaller sizes.  It persists
   fewer buckets in the system.  The locking is slightly trickier.
 - Only switch buckets in zalloc, not zfree, this eliminates pathological
   cases where we ping-pong between two buckets.
 - Ensure that the thread that fills a new bucket gets to allocate from
   it to give a better upper bound on allocation time.

UPDATING Remove CVS from the base system. 2013-06-15 20:29:07 +00:00

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 ``world''
target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not
changed from the currently running version.  See:
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, 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.
