file system code (mostly *_reclaim()) which look like this:
VOP_LOCK(vp);
/* examine vp */
VOP_UNLOCK(vp);
vdrop(vp);
This can now be rewritten to:
VOP_LOCK(vp);
/* examine vp */
vdropl(vp); /* will unlock vp */

obtaining and releasing shared and exclusive locks. The algorithms for
manipulating the lock cookie are very similar to that rwlocks. This patch
also adds support for exclusive locks using the same algorithm as mutexes.
A new sx_init_flags() function has been added so that optional flags can be
specified to alter a given locks behavior. The flags include SX_DUPOK,
SX_NOWITNESS, SX_NOPROFILE, and SX_QUITE which are all identical in nature
to the similar flags for mutexes.
Adaptive spinning on select locks may be enabled by enabling the
ADAPTIVE_SX kernel option. Only locks initialized with the SX_ADAPTIVESPIN
flag via sx_init_flags() will adaptively spin.
The common cases for sx_slock(), sx_sunlock(), sx_xlock(), and sx_xunlock()
are now performed inline in non-debug kernels. As a result, <sys/sx.h> now
requires <sys/lock.h> to be included prior to <sys/sx.h>.
The new kernel option SX_NOINLINE can be used to disable the aforementioned
inlining in non-debug kernels.
The size of struct sx has changed, so the kernel ABI is probably greatly
disturbed.

discards it, for use when the compression layer code doesn't know how to
skip data (e.g., everything other than the "none" compressor). This makes
format level code simpler because that code can now assume that the
compression layer always knows how to skip and will always skip exactly
the requested number of bytes.

file. The previous commit fixed a bug in pci_pending_msix() where it
mis-calculated the word in the PBA to read to see if a message was
pending. Nothing actually uses pci_pending_msix() yet though, so this
didn't result in any visible problems.

Add entries for the six persons listed in the first version of
commit.allow in the old FreeBSD 1 CVS repo.
Correct joergs date, and link him to jkh.
Add my own entry.

this is a preferred failure mode to a NULL pointer dereference in kernel.

incorrect, non-bundlable fragmentation.
- Added min residual to better control split points for
both how big a msg must be as well as how much needs
to be left over.
- With our new algo in place, we need to implicitly
set "end of msg" on the sp-> structure otherwise we
end up with "hung" associations.
- Room reserved up front in IP header by pushing IP
header to back of mbuf.
- Fix so FR's peg count of retransmissions needed.
- Fix so an unlucky chunk that never gets across
will kill the assoc via the kill timer and send an
abort too.
- Fix bug in sctp_input which can result in a crash.
- Do not strip off IP options anymore.
- Clean up sctp_calculate_rto().
- Get rid of unused sysctl.
- Fixed so we discard all M-Cast
- Fixed so port check done AFTER checksum
- Fixed bug in fragmentation code that prevented
us from fragmenting a small complete message when
we needed to.
- Window probes were not marked back to unsent and
flight adjusted when a sack came in with no
window change or accepting of the probe data.
We now fix this with having a mark on the net and
the chunk so we can clear it out when the sack arrives
forcing it to retran just like it was "new" this
improves the handling of window probes, which were
dropped by the receiver.
- Tighten AUTH protocol error checks during INIT/INIT-ACK exchange
