Queue operations on a page use the page lock when updating the page to
reflect the desired queue state, and the page queue lock when physically
enqueuing or dequeuing a page. Multiple pages share a given page lock,
but queue state is per-page; this false sharing results in heavy lock
contention.
Take a small step towards the use of atomic_cmpset to synchronize
updates to per-page queue state by introducing vm_page_pqstate_cmpset()
and using it in the page daemon. In the longer term the plan is to stop
using the page lock to protect page identity and rely only on the object
and page busy locks. However, since the page daemon avoids acquiring
the object lock except when necessary, some synchronization with a
concurrent free of the page is required. vm_page_pqstate_cmpset() can
be used to ensure that queue state updates are successful only if the
page is not scheduled for a dequeue, which is sufficient for the page
daemon.
Add vm_page_swapqueue(), which moves a page from one queue to another
using vm_page_pqstate_cmpset(). Use it in the active queue scan, which
does not use the object lock. Modify vm_page_dequeue_deferred() to
use vm_page_pqstate_cmpset() as well.

r351198 allows the kernel to use domain-local memory to back the vm_page
array (up to 2MB boundaries) and reserves a separate PML4 entry for that
purpose. One consequence of that change is that the vm_page array is no
longer present in minidumps, which only adds pages mapped above
VM_MIN_KERNEL_ADDRESS.
To avoid the friction caused by having kernel data structures mapped
below VM_MIN_KERNEL_ADDRESS, map the vm_page array starting at
VM_MIN_KERNEL_ADDRESS instead of using a dedicated PML4 entry.

In the past, this allocator seems to have allocated things larger than
a page seperately. Much of this code was removed at some point (perhaps
along with sbrk() used) so remove the rest. Instead, keep allocating in
power-of-two bins up to FIRST_BUCKET_SIZE << (NBUCKETS - 1). If we want
something more efficent, we should use a fancier allocator.
While here, remove some vestages of sbrk() use. Most importantly, don't
try to page align the pagepool since it's always page aligned by mmap().

The symbol version for _mcount was removed 12 years ago in r169525 from
gmon/Symbol.map, to be added to the per-arch Symbol.map. mips was overlooked
in this, so _mcount has no symver. Add it back to where it should have been,
rather than where it would go if it were added today, since we're correcting
a historical mistake.
Additionally, _mcount is getting thrown into .mdebug.abi32 in the llvm80/90
world as it's not getting explicitly thrown into .text, so do this now. This
fixes the libc build that was previously failing due to relocations in
.mdebug.abi32. This is specifically due to the way clang's integrated AS
works and that they emit the .mdebug.abiNN section early in the process. An
LLVM bug has been submitted[0] and an agreement has been made that the
mips backend should switch to .text following .mdebug.abiNN for
compatibility.

The page daemon periodically invokes uma_reclaim() to reclaim cached
items from each zone when the system is under memory pressure. This
is important since the size of these caches is unbounded by default.
However it also results in bursts of high latency when allocating from
heavily used zones as threads miss in the per-CPU caches and must
access the keg in order to allocate new items.
With r340405 we maintain an estimate of each zone's usage of its
(per-NUMA domain) cache of full buckets. Start making use of this
estimate to avoid reclaiming the entire cache when under memory
pressure. In particular, introduce TRIM, DRAIN and DRAIN_CPU
verbs for uma_reclaim() and uma_zone_reclaim(). When trimming, only
items in excess of the estimate are reclaimed. Draining a zone
reclaims all of the cached full buckets (the previous behaviour of
uma_reclaim()), and may further drain the per-CPU caches in extreme
cases.
Now, when under memory pressure, the page daemon will trim zones
rather than draining them. As a result, heavily used zones do not incur
bursts of bucket cache misses following reclamation, but large, unused
caches will be reclaimed as before.

To permit larger values of MAXMEMDOM, which is currently 8 on amd64,
cpuset_setdomain(2) accepts a mask of size 256. In the kernel, domain
set masks are 64 bits wide, but can only represent a set of MAXMEMDOM
domains due to the use of the ds_order table.
Domain sets passed to cpuset_setdomain(2) are restricted to a subset
of their parent set, which is typically the root set, but before this
happens we modify the input set to exclude empty domains.
domainset_empty_vm() and other code which manipulates domain sets
expect the mask to be a subset of all_domains, so enforce that when
performing validation of cpuset_setdomain(2) parameters.

Future changes to posixshm will start tracking writeable mappings in order
to support file sealing. Tracking writeable mappings for an OBJT_DEFAULT
object is complicated as it may be swapped out and converted to an
OBJT_SWAP. One may generically add this tracking for vm_object, but this is
difficult to do without increasing memory footprint of vm_object and blowing
up memory usage by a significant amount.
On the other hand, the swap pager can be expanded to track writeable
mappings without increasing vm_object size. This change is currently in
D21456. Switch over to OBJT_SWAP in advance of the other changes to the
swap pager and posixshm.
