The zone allocator's locks should be leaflocks, meaning that they
should never be held when entering into another subsystem, however
the sysctl grabs the zone global mutex and individual zone mutexes
while holding the lock it calls SYSCTL_OUT which recurses into the
VM subsystem in order to wire user memory to do a safe copy. This
can block and cause lock order reversals.
To fix this:
lock zone global.
get a count of the number of zones.
unlock global.
allocate temporary storage.
format and SYSCTL_OUT the banner.
lock global.
traverse list.
make sure we haven't looped more than the initial count taken
to avoid overflowing the allocated buffer.
lock each nodes.
read values and format into buffer.
unlock individual node.
unlock global.
format and SYSCTL_OUT the rest of the data.
free storage.
return.
Other problems included not checking for errors when doing sysctl out
of the column header. Fixed.
Inconsistant termination of the copied string. Fixed.
Objected to by: des (for not using sbuf)
Since the output is not variable length and I'm actually over
allocating signifigantly and I'd like to get this fixed now, I'll
work on the sbuf convertion at a later date. I would not object
to someone else taking it upon themselves to convert it to sbuf.
I hold no MAINTIANER rights to this code (for now).
Protect pager object list manipulation with a mutex.
It doesn't look possible to combine them under a single sx lock because
creation may block and we can't have the object list manipulation block
on anything other than a mutex because of interrupt requests.
VOP_BWRITE() was a hack which made it possible for NFS client
side to use struct buf with non-bio backing.
This patch takes a more general approach and adds a bp->b_op
vector where more methods can be added.
The success of this patch depends on bp->b_op being initialized
all relevant places for some value of "relevant" which is not
easy to determine. For now the buffers have grown a b_magic
element which will make such issues a tiny bit easier to debug.

The workaround that consists of setting a flag in the vm map that
indicates that a fork is in progress and using that mark in the page
fault handling to force a revalidation failure. That change will only
affect (pessimize) page fault handling during fork for threaded
(linuxthreads style) applications and applications using aio_*().

vm_map_growstack(). The call will be returned after our stack handling

reference count was transferred to the new object, but both the
new and the old map entries had pointers to the new object.
Correct this by transferring the second reference.
This fixes a panic that can occur when mmap(2) is used with the

supported architectures such as the alpha. This allows us to save
on kernel virtual address space, TLB entries, and (on the ia64) VHPT
entries. pmap_map() now modifies the passed in virtual address on
architectures that do not support direct-mapped segments to point to
the next available virtual address. It also returns the actual
address that the request was mapped to.
- On the IA64 don't use a special zone of PV entries needed for early
calls to pmap_kenter() during pmap_init(). This gets us in trouble
because we end up trying to use the zone allocator before it is
initialized. Instead, with the pmap_map() change, the number of needed
PV entries is small enough that we can get by with a static pool that is
used until pmap_init() is complete.

This fixes problems allocating bouncebuffers on alphas where there is only
1 chunk of memory (unlike PCs where there is generally at least one small
chunk and a large chunk). Having 1 chunk had been fatal, because these
structures take over 13MB on a machine with 1GB of ram. This doesn't leave
much room for other structures and bounce buffers if they're at the front.

- All processes go into the same array of queues, with different
scheduling classes using different portions of the array. This
allows user processes to have their priorities propogated up into
interrupt thread range if need be.
- I chose 64 run queues as an arbitrary number that is greater than
32. We used to have 4 separate arrays of 32 queues each, so this
may not be optimal. The new run queue code was written with this
in mind; changing the number of run queues only requires changing
constants in runq.h and adjusting the priority levels.
- The new run queue code takes the run queue as a parameter. This
is intended to be used to create per-cpu run queues. Implement
wrappers for compatibility with the old interface which pass in
the global run queue structure.
- Group the priority level, user priority, native priority (before
propogation) and the scheduling class into a struct priority.
- Change any hard coded priority levels that I found to use
symbolic constants (TTIPRI and TTOPRI).
- Remove the curpriority global variable and use that of curproc.
This was used to detect when a process' priority had lowered and
it should yield. We now effectively yield on every interrupt.
- Activate propogate_priority(). It should now have the desired
effect without needing to also propogate the scheduling class.
- Temporarily comment out the call to vm_page_zero_idle() in the
idle loop. It interfered with propogate_priority() because
the idle process needed to do a non-blocking acquire of Giant
and then other processes would try to propogate their priority
onto it. The idle process should not do anything except idle.
vm_page_zero_idle() will return in the form of an idle priority
kernel thread which is woken up at apprioriate times by the vm
system.
- Update struct kinfo_proc to the new priority interface. Deliberately
change its size by adjusting the spare fields. It remained the same
size, but the layout has changed, so userland processes that use it
would parse the data incorrectly. The size constraint should really
be changed to an arbitrary version number. Also add a debug.sizeof
sysctl node for struct kinfo_proc.
mtx_enter(lock, type) becomes:
mtx_lock(lock) for sleep locks (MTX_DEF-initialized locks)
mtx_lock_spin(lock) for spin locks (MTX_SPIN-initialized)
similarily, for releasing a lock, we now have:
mtx_unlock(lock) for MTX_DEF and mtx_unlock_spin(lock) for MTX_SPIN.
We change the caller interface for the two different types of locks
because the semantics are entirely different for each case, and this
makes it explicitly clear and, at the same time, it rids us of the
extra `type' argument.
The enter->lock and exit->unlock change has been made with the idea
that we're "locking data" and not "entering locked code" in mind.
Further, remove all additional "flags" previously passed to the
lock acquire/release routines with the exception of two:
MTX_QUIET and MTX_NOSWITCH
The functionality of these flags is preserved and they can be passed
to the lock/unlock routines by calling the corresponding wrappers:
mtx_{lock, unlock}_flags(lock, flag(s)) and
mtx_{lock, unlock}_spin_flags(lock, flag(s)) for MTX_DEF and MTX_SPIN
locks, respectively.
Re-inline some lock acq/rel code; in the sleep lock case, we only
inline the _obtain_lock()s in order to ensure that the inlined code
fits into a cache line. In the spin lock case, we inline recursion and
actually only perform a function call if we need to spin. This change
has been made with the idea that we generally tend to avoid spin locks
and that also the spin locks that we do have and are heavily used
(i.e. sched_lock) do recurse, and therefore in an effort to reduce
function call overhead for some architectures (such as alpha), we
inline recursion for this case.
Create a new malloc type for the witness code and retire from using
the M_DEV type. The new type is called M_WITNESS and is only declared
if WITNESS is enabled.
Begin cleaning up some machdep/mutex.h code - specifically updated the
"optimized" inlined code in alpha/mutex.h and wrote MTX_LOCK_SPIN
and MTX_UNLOCK_SPIN asm macros for the i386/mutex.h as we presently
need those.
Finally, caught up to the interface changes in all sys code.

by myself. It solves a serious vm_map corruption problem that can occur
with the buffer cache when block sizes > 64K are used. This code has been
heavily tested in -stable but only tested somewhat on -current. An MFC
will occur in a few days. My additions include the vm_map_simplify_entry()
and minor buffer cache boundry case fix.
Make the buffer cache use a system map for buffer cache KVM rather then a
normal map.
Ensure that VM objects are not allocated for system maps. There were cases
where a buffer map could wind up with a backing VM object -- normally
harmless, but this could also result in the buffer cache blocking in places
where it assumes no blocking will occur, possibly resulting in corrupted
maps.
Fix a minor boundry case in the buffer cache size limit is reached that
could result in non-optimal code.
Add vm_map_simplify_entry() calls to prevent 'creeping proliferation'
of vm_map_entry's in the buffer cache's vm_map. Previously only a simple
linear optimization was made. (The buffer vm_map typically has only a
handful of vm_map_entry's. This stabilizes it at that level permanently).

- Proc locking in a few places.
- faultin() now must be called with the proc lock held.
- Split up swappable() into a couple of tests so that it can be locke in
swapout_procs().
- Use queue macros.
- replace the simplelock in struct vm_zone with a mutex.
- use a proper SLIST rather than a hand-rolled job for the zone list.
- add a subsystem lock that protects the zone list and the statistics
counters.
- merge _zalloc() into zalloc() and _zfree() into zfree(), and
move them below _zget() so there's no need for a prototype.
- add two initialization functions: one which initializes the
subsystem mutex and the zone list, and one that currently doesn't
do anything.
- zap zerror(); use KASSERTs instead.
- dike out half of sysctl_vm_zone(), which was mostly trying to do
manually what the snprintf() call could do better.
