capable of being used for things other than swap space allocation,
and splvm would have been appropriate for only swap space allocation
and other VM things. My commit broke that (and was actually a mistake.)
previous snap. Specifically, kern_exit and kern_exec now makes a
call into the pmap module to do a very fast removal of pages from the
address space. Additionally, the pmap module now updates the PG_MAPPED
and PG_WRITABLE flags. This is an optional optimization, but helpful
on the X86.
(yes I had tested the hell out of this).
I've also temporarily disabled the code so that it behaves as it previously
did (tail drop's the syns) pending discussion with fenner about some socket
state flags that I don't fully understand.

Major: When blocking occurs in allocbuf() for VMIO files,
excess wire counts could accumulate.
Major: Pages are incorrectly accumulated into the physical
buffer for clustered reads. This happens when bogus
page is needed.
Minor: When reclaiming buffers, the async flag on the buffer
needs to be zero, or the reclaim is not optimal.
Minor: The age flag should be cleared, if a buffer is wanted.
1/ session leader
2/ Have a console device vnode (/dev/console)
3/ have NULL pointer for a consoel tty struct.
fix the only case where the tty struct is referenced without a prior
check for existance.
- kern.maxproc and kern.maxprocperuid were read-only (and thus essentially
useless. Apparently no one uses them).
- all the user sysctls were read-write (and thus it was possible for them
to be inconsistent with the authoritative fixed values in the library).
Removed unused #include.
It is needed for implementation details but very little of it is
needed for the interface. Include it in the few places that didn't
already include it.
Include <sys/ioccom.h> in <sys/disklabel.h> (as already in
<sys/diskslice.h>) so that all the disk-related headers are almost
self-sufficient.
incorrect, and correct the support for B_ORDERED. The spl window
fix was from Peter Wemm, and his questions led me to find the problem with
the interrupt time page manipulation.
data pointed at in a ktrace file, if this process is being ktrace'ed.
I'm using this to profile malloc usage.
The advantage is that there is no context around this call, ie, no
open file or socket, so it will work in any process, and you can
decide if you want it to collect data or not.
/*

struct timespec {
time_t ts_sec; /* seconds */
long ts_nsec; /* and nanoseconds */
};
The correct names of the fields are tv_sec and tv_nsec.

B_ASYNC flag broke things pretty bad (freeing buffer already on
queue or other wierd buffer queue errors.) The broken code is
left in commented out, but this makes the problem go away for
now.
The default level works with minimal overhead, but one can also enable
full, efficient use of a 512K cache. (Parameters can be generated
to support arbitrary cache sizes also.)
for entire SYS5 SHM segments. This is totally unnecessary, and so the
correct allocation of VM objects has been substituted. (The vm_mmap
was misused -- vm_object_allocate is more appropriate.)
Bowrite guarantees that buffers queued after a call to bowrite will
be written after the specified buffer (on a particular device).
Bowrite does this either by taking advantage of hardware ordering support
(e.g. tagged queueing on SCSI devices) or resorting to a synchronous write.
were declared as non-const. This is backwards (_lkm_exec() changes the
pointers but all the target `struct execsw's are const). Fixed this
and poisoned related declarations to match and removed the bogus casts
that hid the bug.
the file access time update on reads and can be useful in reducing
filesystem overhead in cases where the access time is not important (like
Usenet news spools).
