PG_RELEASED for anon pages. PR/23171 from Christian Limpach.
for details, see discussion filed in the PR database.
uvm_anon_release: a new function to free anon-owned PG_RELEASED page.
uvm_anfree: we can't wait for the page here because the caller might hold
amap lock. instead, just mark the page as PG_RELEASED.
who unbusy the page should check the PG_RELEASED.
uvm_aio_aiodone: uvm_anon_release() instead of uvm_page_unbusy()
if appropriate.
uvmfault_anonget: check PG_RELEASED.
- break anon related functions out of uvm_amap.c and put them in their own
file (uvm_anon.c). includes break up uvm_anon_init into an amap and an
an anon init function
- ensure that only functions within the amap module access amap structure
fields (add macros to amap api as needed)
UVM was written by chuck cranor <chuck@maria.wustl.edu>, with some
minor portions derived from the old Mach code. i provided some help
getting swap and paging working, and other bug fixes/ideas. chuck
silvers <chuq@chuq.com> also provided some other fixes.
this is the UVM kernel code portion.
this will be KNF'd shortly. :-)
