so that VA and PA have the same color. On a page fault, choose a physical
page that has the same color as the virtual address.
When allocating kernel memory pages, allow the MD to specify a preferred
VM_FREELIST from which to choose pages. For machines with large amounts
of memory (> 4GB), all kernel memory to come from <4GB to reduce the amount
of bounce buffering needed with 32bit DMA devices.
to update any cpu flag due to a change to/from a 64bit and a 32bit address
space). This can set the state needed for copyout/copyin before setregs
is invoked.
and the metadata required to interpret it. Callers of namei must now
create a pathbuf and pass it to NDINIT (instead of a string and a
uio_seg), then destroy the pathbuf after the namei session is
complete.
Update all namei call sites accordingly. Add a pathbuf(9) man page and
update namei(9).
The pathbuf interface also now appears in a couple of related
additional places that were passing string/uio_seg pairs that were
later fed into NDINIT. Update other call sites accordingly.
Instead, see if a process waits uninterruptibly like ps does,
so that the second column (`b') of default vmstat output prints
some useful value (-t is still broken though).
Maintain an array of pointer to struct vm_physseg, instead of struct
array. So that VM subsystem can take its pointer safely. Pointer
to this struct will replace raw paddr_t usage in the future.
Dynamic removal is not supported yet.
Only MD data structure changes, no kernel bump needed.
Tested on i386, amd64, powerpc/ibm40x, arm11.
vm_page *) "reverse" lookup code from uvm_page.h to uvm_page.c, to
help migration to not do that.
Likewise move per-page metadata (struct vm_page *) -> physical
address "forward" conversion code into *.c too. This is called
only low-layer VM and MD code.
lookup code from uvm_page.h to uvm_page.c.
This code is used by some pmaps to lookup per-page state (PV) from
per-segment metadata (struct vm_physseg). This is not needed if
UVM looks up physical segment once in fault handler, then directly
passes it to pmap. This change helps transition to that model.
The only users of vm_physseg_find() are pmap_motorola.c and
powerpc/ibm4xx/pmap.c.
Tested By: Compiling and running powerpc/ibm4xx/pmap.c
(evbppc/conf/OPENBLOCKS266)
in UVM external API, uvm_extern.h. Because most users care only

Device drivers use bus_dma(9) to manage physical memory. Device
drivers pull in bus_dma(9) API, bus_dma.h. bus_dma(9) implementations
pull in UVM internal API, uvm.h.

1. Fix inverted node order, so that negative value from comparison operator
would represent lower (left) node, and positive - higher (right) node.
2. Add an argument (i.e. "context"), passed to comparison operators.
3. Change rb_tree_insert_node() to return a node - either inserted one or
already existing one.
4. Amend the interface to manipulate the actual object, instead of the
rb_node (in a similar way as Patricia-tree interface does).
5. Update all RB-tree users accordingly.
XXX: Perhaps rename rb.h to rbtree.h, since cleaning-up..

the earlier change caused data corruption by freeing pages
without invaliding their mappings. instead of the trylock/retry,
just take the genfs-node lock before calling VOP_GETPAGES()
and pass a new flag to tell it that we're already holding this lock.
